Unfit

Chapter 13

"Arthur, can you remove your son from Albus?" Ana asked him.

Although he was reluctant, he eventually pulled Bill off of Albus. But not before he gave him a few good punches to the face. Ana waited a few minutes for the excitement to die down.

"Alright, now that that's done with. I know, it's surprising. Bill, I already paid for the goblins to remove it. Bloodying up the floor isn't going to undo that. Even though he does deserve it."

Ana looks out over the group of people. All curious about why the eldest Weasley attacked Dumbledore. "For those who don't understand his anger, the little spot at the end of Parchment. Where it says Horcrux and soul leech. While I'm sure that most of you can make an educated guess on what a soul leech is, the Horcrux is the biggest problem. It is gone now, so need to worry. But a Horcrux is a piece of someone's soul placed in, usually, an inanimate object but they can also be placed inside living beings. This one just so happened to be in Harry's scar since that fateful night. Whether Dumbledore knew it was there at the time is unknown, but and I'm certain that Bill came to this conclusion very quickly and that is the reason for his attack. He had it figured out at least by 1993 when Ginny was brought back from the Chamber of Secrets with Fawkes, Harry and a blackened leather book with a gapping hole in the center of it."

"No.." Molly almost sobs out.

"Unfortunately, Molly, it is true. I think it is about time that we as a group and the Order should find a change in leadership. I am not up for the position as I will not always be in the country. But I believe that Alastor would do a great job," Ana puts out her opinion before turning to a different subject. "This can be expressed upon further, later in the meeting. First, we must figure out if Miss Weasley is in need of some help in the mental aspect. Bill, if you would?"

Bill nods in confirmation before moving along the table to his only sister. With a warm smile he asks her to sit still so he can run a full scan. Being that she absolutely trusts her oldest brother, she just gives him a nervous smile and agrees. While he is doing that, Sirius turns to Harry.

"Are you doing alright pup?"

"Yeah, just anxious."

"About...?"

"The hearing, and the prophecy, and everything else going on."

Ana slings her arm over Harry's shoulder and talks quietly to him, "You see that woman over there with the curly black hair next to Tonks," she subtly points at Andromeda and stops when he nods his affirmation. "She is our lawyer. A damn good one at that, should there be any point in the proceedings where they try to paint blame onto you when it is wrong then she will be able to tear apart any arguments that they have on it. Andromeda is scarily good at what she does, I've been to a few of the muggle hearings where she was defending others. She'll tear them apart in our world. Make them all look stupid at the same time."

Harry eases into Ana as comfortably as he can with them being on separate chairs, seeing this, Sirius transfigures their chairs to be a small bench. When Harry notices the change he leans down further on his side of the chair to comfortably slide under Ana's arm and rest his head on her shoulder. Their new seating arrangement went mostly unnoticed by the rest of the rooms occupants.

Bill had all of the attention when he finally stood back up, "She still has some dark magic in the recesses of her mind, clinging to the worst of her thoughts. Even if she would never act on them, if she were to get angry enough it could present itself."

"She should have seen a mind healer after that, she was only 11 and had been possessed by the 16 year old version of Voldemort," Ana rolled her eyes at the number of people that flinched.
