Water and Magic Do Mix

The Trial....

Pierce's POV 
Percy got up early to get to the ministry.

"Don't go. Stay in bed for a little longer please." Aaron said pouting cutely. I almost gave in.

"I have to be at the hearing. It's Harry's case. It's at eight o clock. It's 6:30 now. I have to be there soon." I sashayed my way to the bathroom but not before pecking him on the lips.

I got ready and had my breakfast. Aaron did not have any meetings or such so he was working from home today. That explains him sleeping in or he would be up at 6 to workout and then get ready for work.

I again kissed him goodbye before leaving for the ministry.

I arrived there 10 minutes early. I went to Fudge's office straight from where he led me to the courtroom I had seen while touring the so called place.

They were bigger idiots than I thought. I mean who told a court trial for misuse of magic. I sure would have scored a house in the ministry if they did put me on trial for every time I misused magic which happened way often with me.

Fudge made me sit next to him for the trial. This is good. I can easily counter him during the trial. Oh boy. This should be fun.

Harry did not make it on time. Damn this is gonna be pain.

"Your late"  Fudge barked.

"I'm sorry I didn't know the time had been changed."  Harry answered nervously.

"This is not the Wizengamot's fault. An owl was sent to you this morning. Take a seat".

Damn he looks so scared. I'll make sure to teach him to relax and be able to show them their places. I was internally smirking but on the outside I had a blank face. My record here was exemplary even if I was notorious.

"Very well. Let's begin, the accused being present finally. Are you ready?"

"Yes sir" , Percy Weasley replied eagerly. I really wanted to kick his balls for being attention seeking asshole.

"Disciplinary hearing of the twelfth of august into offences committed under the Decree for Reasonable Restriction of Underage Sorcery and the International Statute of Secrecy by Harry James Potter, resident at number four, privet drive, Little Whinging, Surrey.

Interrogators: Cornelius Oswald Fudge, Minister of Magic; Amelia Susan Bones, Head of the Department of Magical Law Enforcement; Dolores Jane Umbridge, Senior Undersecretary to the Minister; Court Scribe- Percy Ignatius Weasley--

"Witness for the defense, Albus Percival Wulfric Brian Dumbledore"  Albus Dumbledore said entering the courtroom. So the fool finally shows up. I did not see this coming. I didn't know he was defending Harry. I thought I wouldn't meet him until I crashed one of his Order meetings. Guess I was wrong. He was looking at me as I was at him. Studying each other.

He did affect people around him. I could feel the emotions, some happy, some angry, didn't know he was capable of it. I thought it was only some who could do it. Guess he is one of those who people are jealous or look up to.

"Ah Dumbledore, you ---- er ---- got --- our message that the time and place ---- had been changed?" Fudge asked. Duh it was obvious otherwise he wouldn't be here.

God this minister was an idiot. Who made him the minister. If he wanted to be bigger bully at least act like one and not let someone take your thunder. Dumb-ass.
