Chapter 108

"Come on faster" Edwin shouted as he sent Neville flying with the knockback jinx, luckily the chamber is now tricked out like a mental hospital with the soft walls and floor but without the bulky white walls, as charms were used instead so no one can get hurt while learning.

"You're pushing him too much" Hannah shouted helping Neville up," are you okay"

"Yeah I'm fine, "Neville said glaring at Edwin" Again"

"Flipend- "

"Expelliarmus" Neville shouted as the scarlet light hit Edwin's wand disarming him.

"Well done Nevs" Edwin said picking up his wand and moving onto the next person Hannah.

Edwin became one of the many students teaching D.A.D.A, other than Edwin, Cedrick, Harry and the Twins (if they aren't out pranking Umbridge) would teach different areas that are good at.

Cedrick and Edwin focused on combat and Harry taught the Patronus charm with whatever he could offer and for the twins whenever they were around they would help out; for the rest of four houses, founding members would duel with other students for the experience.

Edwin wondered looking around the chamber that wasn't full but still had a great deal of persons inside wondering why Umbridge haven't found them yet.

"That's all for today "Cedrick shouted which made everyone stop their magic" and remember to leave one at a time, Peeves doesn't like working with the Bloody Baron"

Even the ghosts of Hogwarts started to help in the 'fight' against Umbridge, and sometimes when students leave the chamber in a large group it would raise eyebrows and when that happens peeves or any other ghost around would distract whoever is there at that time allowing them to exit the chamber.

"Nice of you to go easy on Neville, "Theodore said as they were walking out.

"Don't know what you mean? "Edwin said looking back at Neville talking to Susan and Hanna" Neville won fair and square"

"Sure he did "Draco stated with a sarcastic tone. "But he is getting better, could even last a few seconds against me"

"Don't know about that" Daphne added" after all he beat Edwin"

The argument that Edwin went easy on Neville went on for some time even with Edwin denying it they couldn't believe Neville won. In fact, Edwin did go easy on Neville but didn't want to admit it.

Just after breakfast the next day Edwin was called to Dumbledore's office to discuss something, for once Dumbledore's office door was left open allowing Edwin to enter. His office didn't look much different than it usually would tidy, but there was no paper on his desk and Fawkes was nowhere to be seen.

"Morning Headmaster Dumbledore, "Edwin said disturbing Dumbledore who was standing up reading a book.

"It is indeed a good morning" Dumbledore replied putting the book back in the shelve" how is your after classes projects going"

"Both is going well, but Harry doesn't seem to be afraid "Edwin stated.

"Oh, should he be "Dumbledore questioned." Fear can be a good and bad thing, and maybe it's not so bad that's he's not afraid"

"He wants to spy on the dark lord and he already tried" Edwin hissed remembering the day when Harry couldn't stop himself and took a peak. "it's dangerous if Harry can see him then why can't Voldy look back and do more"

"I understand your fears; after all, you were controlled by a small piece of his soul," Dumbledore said and there was a shine in his eyes" it seems we need to have this conversation another time with our dear friend Harry"

"what? "Edwin questioned as Dumbledore faced the door and took a seat on his desk.

Soon after Minster Fudge and Umbridge walked through the doors being followed by several Auror most notable Kingsley Shacklebolt, Amelia Bones, and Bartemius Crouch." Albus Dumbledore you're under arrests for conspiracy against the Ministry" Bartemius announced as all the Auror entered the room.

"Conspiracy that's Madness "professor McGonagall Shouted as she entered the office.

"Albus as old friends I want you to come Quietly" Minister Fudge stated looking at Dumbledore who wasn't even worried.

"What are the grounds against the charge "Professor McGonagall asked in a stern tone but was only shushed by Umbridge.

"Show your wand," Bartemius said as the Auror surrounded Dumbledore and Edwin.

"I see there will be negotiations or proof of my crime" Dumbledore started taking out his wand which caused all of the Auror to flinch and some even took a step back.

"The case will be held in front of a judge you will have a fair trial" Minister Fudge said as his voice trembled slightly.

"A fair trial for a crime I didn't commit," Dumbledore said pointing his wand to Edwin's chest and he gave him a meaningful look.

It took Edwin a short amount of time to figure what Dumbledore was telling him "I'll take this Headmaster" Edwin said taking Dumbledore wand of his hands which caused the Auror to relax a little.

"Minerva takes care of Hogwarts in my absence," Dumbledore said walking forward and the Auror would take a step back.

"I will Albus" Professor McGonagall responded as Kinsley pushed the Auror aside as went and collect Dumbledore.

"There will be no need for cuffs" Kinsley shouted as one of the auror brought some charming handcuffs" if he wanted to escape he would have done so already"

After Dumbledore was taken away Minister Fudge and Umbridge stayed in the office" As we don't know how far the conspiracy went Umbridge will be fully watching over Hogwarts, do you understand Professor McGonagall"

"No Minister Fudge, by fully watching over what do you mean"

"I will be the acting head of Hogwarts until Dumbledore's trial is over and all rules must be followed directly," Umbridge said.

"that cannot be, Only Professors who had been at Hogwarts over a long period of time can become a headmaster or Mistress"

"You misunderstand "Minister Fudge stated" Umbridge will only be her until Dumbledore's trail and she will just be in charge of giving out rules and observing and of course she will stay as the Defense as against the Dark Arts Professor"

"But Hogwarts control will remain with me" Professor McGonagall hissed knowing that she can't do anything about Umbridge.

"That will be all" Minister fudge said but back" there will be some Auror on Hogwarts grounds"

After they left only Edwin and Professor McGonagall were left in the office "that bitch" Professor McGonagall hissed under her breath but Edwin heard and tried not to look at McGonagall.

"Professor I'm going to keep the wand for Dumbledore," Edwin said and Professor McGonagall flinched as if she forgot that Edwin was there.

"Yes Dear that's why he gave you it, Albus will be back soon or later," Professor McGonagall said with a faint smile." Now go on you have classes"

"the elder wand," Edwin said he looked at the smooth wand with a conjoined handle by two-sphere,
