Rose and Hugo were still in shock that Saruman was standing in front of them. Lily, James, and Albus began to bow down to Saruman.

Rose looked at them in shock, "Get up! This is no time to honor him," she scoffed.  

Lily, James, and Albus did as Rose said.  They got off their knees and patted away the dirt, dust, and grass blades from their clothing. "Where is Gandalf?"

Then Saruman said, "I'm sorry... my friends, Gandalf the White... or, as you may know him, Gandalf the Grey, has passed away from a duel between myself and a Death Eater." Saruman looked off in the distance as he spoke. "I remember it clearly..."


It all began on the top of the tower of the five keys... I was waiting in my cell as prisoner for the crimes against Rohan and Gondor itself. Not to mention the crimes against Coruscant as well. But then something happened, something I had not foreseen but should have foreseen. It was Gandalf the White and Gandalf the Grey himself. He had smile on his face. Why, in my mind, was he smiling? Was this because I was prisoner now, or was this because I had now thought about what I had done. 

Then Gandalf had spoke, "Saruman, the Counsel of the five wizards and the rest of the universe have decided that you will be given a second chance. Because you told the Jedi about Darth Sidious, all of us have decided that you will be known as Count Saruman the White."

"I am honored, Gandalf the Grey," I replied. "Whatever that the counsel will have me do, I will do it."

Then Gandalf the Grey had said, "Count Saruman, you will be working for the defense of the dark arts at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. And," he began to add when he was interrupted with the ministry of magic itself. 

It was none other than Harry Potter. Then Harry Potter bowed down to Gandalf. "Gandalf, it's good to see you."

"Good to see you to... Mr. Potter," Gandalf replied. 

Harry Potter asked, "Do you think that Saruman can take care of the kids at Hogwarts?"

Then Gandalf said, "Yes. He will be a great ally at Hogwarts. He has also helped Middle Earth and the Star Wars universe itself." 

Then Harry Potter said, "Well then, Saruman, I also have one final request for you..."

"And what would that be, Harry Potter Phoenix?"

"I want you to watch over my children, in the event that myself or Jenny end up missing or killed." Harry asked.

Then I spoke up, "I've been looking forward to this challenge." I grinned at the thought of such a wondrous adventure that I would soon be partaking on. 

Harry and I began to descend from the tower, but then Gandalf the White - I felt strange calling him Gandalf the Grey - had screamed behind me. We both turned around. 

"What sorcery is this?" I asked. I saw five cloaked figures that looked like Nazgûl from the earlier days. 

Then we saw another cloaked figure emerge from the fog, a wand in his hand, smoke and light giving the mystical object a strange and unique green glow. I noticed he wearing the House of Slytherin badge. The figures had all surrounded Gandalf giving him nowhere to turn. Just then, the man with the Slytherin badge waved his wand, ready to begin the full torture. Gandalf was being levitated in the air. 

"No!" Harry screamed, "Gandalf!"  

The cloaked figures turned to look for the source of the scream. Just then, Harry and I saw a familiar figure emerge from another area in the fog. Peter Pettigrew.
