*Back at Hogwarts, Harry was visiting Dumbledore in his office. On the way, he could hear arguing.*

Dumbledore: A man has died here, Fudge. And he won't be the last. You must take action.

Fudge: l will not. ln times like these, the wizard world looks to its leaders for strength, Dumbledore!

Dumbledore: Then for once show them some!

Fudge: The Triwizard Tournament will not be canceled. l will not be seen as a coward!

Dumbledore: A true leader does what is right, no matter what others think.

Fude: What did you say to me?

Moody: Excuse me, gentlemen. lt may interest you to know this conversation is no longer private.

*The door to Dumbledore's office opened and everyone saw Harry there. Fudge was the one to greet him.*

Fudge: Oh, Harry! Harry, how good to see you again.

Harry: l can come back later, professor.

Dumbledore: Not necessary, Harry. The minister and l are done. l'll be back in a moment. Minister, after you. There you are. Your hat.

*Fudge grabbed his hat and they left the room. Dumbledore turned around.*

Dumbledore: Oh, Harry, do feel free to indulge in a little Licorice Snap in my absence. But l have to warn you, they're a wee bit sharp.

*The door closed. Harry walked over to the bowl to grab some and one bit him. The snaps all started to jump and pinch him. He tried to grab them but they ran away. Behind him, a pannel opened to reveal the Pensieve. He looked into it and found himself falling from the sky and landed safely in a chair. Next to a younger looking Dumbledore.*

Harry: Professor?

Man: Professor.

Dumbledore: Yeah.

*Harry saw a hand go through him and Dumbledore shook the man's hand. Dumbledore couldn't see or hear Harry. Dumbledore then looked over to a young couple and he shook the man's hand. The woman next to him looked to be 5 months along.*

Dumbledore: I want to thank you, Bruce, for you and Selina coming here today.

Bruce: It's no problem, Albus. Just hope her cravings don't kick in, if you know what I mean.

*Harry realized at that point it was Damian's parents, Bruce and Selina Wayne. Selina scoffed and playfully slapped Bruce on the arm.*

Selina: Bruce.

Bruce: I'm just kidding.

*Just then, a cell in the middle rose from the floor. Inside were Igor Karkaroff and Basil Karlo. Just then, Crouch spoke up.*

Barty: lgor Karkaroff, you and Basil Karlo have been brought from Azkaban and Arkham Asylum at your own requests...to present evidence to this council. Should your testimony prove consequential council may be prepared to order your immediate release. Until such time, you remain in the eyes of the Ministry a convicted Death Eater. Do you both accept these terms?

Igor: l do, sir.

Barty: Mr. Karlo?

Karlo: Yes, sir. I do.

Barty: And what do you both wish to present?

Igor: Karlo and l have names, sir.

Karlo: Yeah...There was...Rosier, Evan Rosier.

*The council went through the papers regarding Rosier. They handed him a file.*

Barty: Rosier is dead.
