The Light Side is Doomed {HP WTM}

Chapter Ten

James waited outside Dumbledore's office for a little bit. He hadn't been told the password, but he was Lord Gryffindor, he could get in if he wanted.

Dumbledore didn't know if this could get any worse for him to be honest.

He didn't want to, but he didn't have much of a choice here. The other item he had to get was up there. He was also giving Regulus time to get the diadem and cause the distraction.

Sirius jumped as the floo roared to life, and something he will never forget came through. It was a ruffled Minerva McGonagall.

The students, especially the Gryffindors all reared back in shock. That look was worse than her half shift earlier.

"Minnie?" Sirius spoke up.

"That white-haired fake grandpa fucking bastard!" Minerva's full blown Scottish accent was out and Sirius was scared.

Students laughed at Minnie's name calling while she looked satisfied with what her on screen self said.

"He's been slipping potions into my drinks since I graduated here!" she continued. "Did he do it to you to?!"

"Add that," Amelia said. Dumbledore thought too soon.

Sirius hesitantly nodded and Minerva hissed in frustration again, reminiscent of a cat with its hackles up while Sirius looked like the big dog that was terrified of the smaller cat.

"That's exactly what it is," Sirius admitted.

Minerva continued her ranting while Sirius sat there quietly. When she stopped, she said, "What are you two planning?"

"We found out that Voldemort, who was previously your classmate Tom Riddle," her eyes widened at the name of her ex classmate, "had been controlled by Dumbledore to make horcruxes which is a really evil thing to do that I'm not going to go into detail. Tom wanted everything to be balanced, for the Dark and Light magical sides to get along. Dumbledore is trying to prevent that. He's bringing in muggleborns without any information, thinking there the shit, and taking our traditions and changing it suit there's. He's risking us getting caught," he explained.

"We didn't know about the traditions, but we also come from families with our own traditions," a muggleborn Gryffindor spoke up calmly.

"That's fine, but we don't like it being pushed on us," Lucius answered.

"We don't mind learning or maybe even participating in your version of the traditions, but our rituals are being banned and we can't do them in school," Narcissa added.

"How about we have moments if your open to learn some of the muggle traditions we teach you them and in return you teach us yours and if possible both can be celebrated?" the muggleborn suggested.

"Deal," one of the purebloods spoke up.

"I was taught the traditions purebloods use, but now those are gone," Minerva remembered. Since she was mostly muggle raised, her first year in Hogwarts she had to take a Wizarding studies class where she learned about the rituals, but she never got to try them at school, only with her mother. After that year, the rituals were banned.

Students look intrigued hearing Minnie's past and hearing about the rituals. Tom theorized Dumbledore didn't want him to learn the rituals and possibly communicate with ancestors of his. Morgana theorized the rituals were banned so she would never get the chance to rid the binding on her magic or talk to her dad and get the truth.
