The next few weeks, the Aurors were garuding the school. James, Rose, Camille, and I didn't go back classes. We all told the Aurors what he did, who he and Camille were and what we did to find the Sword of Gryffindor. James held my hand as I squeezed his hand when I was nervous. Mr. Potter, Mrs. and Mr. Weasley, and my Aunt stayed and watched us. "Tell us about the ball, Ms. Red." One of the Aurors said. I told them what I could remember then Camille filled in the rest. I watched as my aunt paced back and forth, mumbling that she shouldn't have let me come back to this terrible school.
"What do have against Hogwarts?" I stood up and looked at my aunt. The Aurors didn't stop me from asking my aunt this question.
"I hated coming here, and so did your father until your mother came into his life. He would always talk about her. What happened to me? I was bullied by my sister-in-law's best friend. He hurt me. So when the time came that you were going to school here, I wanted you to go far away from here because of this." She was motioning to the events that has happened. "This, is not the life that i wanted you to live! I wanted you away from the Potters, Malfoys, Weasleys, Riddles! This is all crazy!" My Aunt kept going on and on until I told the Aurors to take her out of the room. "We can't, she's your guardian-"
"No, she's not." I sat down, "And i want her out." Mr. Potter brought her out the room thankfully. I held James' hand then he kissed my hand, right in front of everyone in the room, which made them shocked, yet happy to see some good coming out of the situation. James looked at the Aurors, "What happens now?"
"Well first, Hogwarts will resume and final exams are canceled. Then we will get a trail and need to use your information that you have presented to us. Camille will not be charged and she will have full control of the accounts that Tom has had. As for Ms. Red, all of the accounts from your family and from Gryffindors-"
"Wait, Alexis has nothing to do with the Gryffindors." Rose raised an eyebrow. "She is not related to the Gryffindors."
"Actually, her father is related to the Gryffindors directly. All the money will go to the Alexis. Not her aunt or grandmother. Her parents, in their will, made sure all the money goes to her."
"This isn't about money, " I told Rose, "I really am a relative of Godric Gryffindor." Rose's eyes widen then did Lily's and James's.
"With this money though, after Hogwarts you won't have to work a day in your life." The Auror said. I looked at him with a glare and he stopped talking. "Anyways, you will all be safe."
After that, I was sitting in my dorm, finishing up all the homework I missed when James came in. "Hey." He sat down as I looked up at him. "I wanted to ask you something." I nodded for him to go ahead. "That replica of the sword...it's real isn't it?" My eyes widen.
"How did you-" I was about to say but James smirked, "I have known you long enough to know when you are lying." I smiled at him then came to his side. "You are so smart." I kissed his cheek. "Now, tell me why when I was gone that you stupidly challenged Tom?"
He moved my red hair out of my blue eyes. "Because I wanted to protect your name from being tarnish." I smiled at him then pecked his lips once. "Thank you."

Later that night, I walked to the headmaster's office. Thankfully, the headmaster wasn't there. I went in and saw the sword of Gryffindor on his desk. I was about to take it until I heard a voice behind me.
"Stealing what is rightfully yours?" I turned around to see Mr. Potter. He just gave a small smile, "This sword has helped the house through many things, and now it will help the new generation through their trails." He turned and took the sword in his hands, then held it out to me. "You know where this should go. Put it where it is suppose to go." I walked out the office and went to the Gryffindor common room. I opened the glass case that was made two years ago.
Two years ago, year seven thought they found the sword and made a glass case to bring it back. I put it in the glass case and locked it with about five spells and charms. I smiled a little then heard a dark chuckle.
