The Shack, The Snacks, and The Shocking Truth

Raja had outdone himself this time.

The Headmaster's office was transformed into a grand legal-war room-slash-tea party. A long table sat in the middle, piled high with samosas, pakoras, Darjeeling tea, and hot jalebis. The aroma alone was enough to make even Snape pause in his eternal scowl.

Cornelius Fudge, Amelia Bones, her Aurors, Minerva McGonagall, Severus Snape, and Albus Dumbledore were all seated, sipping tea and munching away. Even McGonagall looked dangerously close to enjoying herself.

Dumbledore, with twinkling eyes, reached for the plate of hot jalebi, took a bite, and let out a deep, satisfied sigh.

"This… this is a most delightful gathering," he murmured.

Raja grinned. "Indeed, Headmaster! But let's cut to the chase, shall we?"

He leaned forward dramatically. "Now, ladies and gentlemen, what is the most concerning situation Magical Britain is facing right now?"

There was silence as everyone chewed, then they all hesitantly answered:

"Sirius Black."

Raja snapped his fingers.

A handkerchief shot into the air, spun, and suddenly expanded into a giant cloth, falling to the ground. And when Raja dramatically lifted it back up…

Sirius Black was tied to a chair.

Remus Lupin stood behind him, pointing a wand at his head.

The room erupted in chaos.

Aurors drew their wands.

Fudge nearly choked on his tea.

McGonagall gasped.

Dumbledore raised an eyebrow but kept eating.

"Great Merlin's beard!" Fudge sputtered. "We got Black! Arrest him immediately!"

Madam Bones looked skeptical but nodded. Aurors moved forward.

Raja raised a single hand.

"Ah ah ah! That's it? No questions? No curiosity? No interest in HOW I caught him?" Raja said, feigning deep disappointment. "I mean, really, Mr.Cornelius, are you even trying?"

Fudge tried to wave him off. "Madam Bones, please—"

The air in the room suddenly turned frigid.

A crushing magical aura pulsed outward from Raja, suffocating, cold, and heavy. Even the candles flickered in fear.

Dumbledore coughed lightly. "Mr. Raja… control yourself."

Raja sighed, snapped his fingers, and the pressure disappeared. "Apologies, Headmaster. I simply hate when people don't listen."

Now transformed into Detective Sherlock Raja, puffed bubbles and began his speech.

"The day Sirius entered Hogwarts and attacked the Fat Lady, I knew something was off. I analyzed his movements and ruled out all possible hiding places one by one in orderly manner."

He turned to Sirius, smirking. "Where was our dear escaped convict will be hiding? The Shrieking Shack."

McGonagall gasped. "You KNEW he was there when?!"

Raja grinned mischievously. "Yes, the same night, I decided to pay him a visit."

Snape " Impossible you were cleaning the cauldrons and fall asleep on the floor I took you to bed myself."

Raja " thank you for that but the second you left the common room I left also."

Snape has vine on his forehead its going to burst due to him carrying the kid to common the humiliation he felt.

At the Shrieking Shack

Sirius Black was not expecting visitors.

Yet there Raja sat, legs crossed, sipping tea like he owned the place.

Sirius narrowed his eyes. "Who in the bloody hell are you?"

Raja smiled. "Your ticket to freedom."

Sirius blinked. "...What?"

Raja leaned back. "Let's get something straight: You were framed. You didn't kill Peter Pettigrew or betray the Potters."

Sirius flinched. "So you know what difference it makes a kid find nobody will believe you."

"Yes, and frankly, the entire government is an embarrassment. You didn't even get a trial."

Sirius clenched his fists. "They never gave me a chance to speak."

Raja sighed dramatically. "See? THIS is why I have trust issues."

Sirius looked at him warily. "So… what now?"

Raja smirked. "Simple. You're coming with me."

Sirius raised an eyebrow. "And what if I say no?"

Raja snapped his fingers. Sirius immediately found himself tied to a chair.

"Then you don't get snacks."

Sirius gasped. "YOU MONSTER."

Back in Dumbledore's office, Raja clapped his hands. A golden cage appeared, containing…

A fat, yellow rat.

Sirius started thrashing in his chair.

Fudge scoffed. "It's a rat."

Raja smirked. "Is it?"

Madam Bones leaned forward. "Where are you going with this, Raja?"

"Professor McGonagall," Raja said sweetly, "what's the highest level of Transfiguration?"

McGonagall listed a few, then suddenly froze.

"Animagus."

Snape's eyes flashed. "NO."

He whipped out his wand and cast a reversal spell.

The rat glowed—then suddenly transformed into a trembling, balding man.

Peter Pettigrew.

The room exploded in gasps.

Sirius laughed like a madman. "THERE! There's your traitor!"

Snape looked moments away from murder. "I'm going to—"

Lupin grabbed his arm. "Severus, we need him alive."

Sirius spat. "KILL HIM, SNAPE! I DON'T CARE ANYMORE!"

Raja clapped his hands. "Alright, everyone, calm down!"

He turned to Madam Bones. "Veritaserum. Let's do this properly."

Minutes later, Pettigrew was drugged and confessing everything.

His voice echoed as Raja recorded the confession into a magical portrait.

When it ended, Madam Bones turned to Fudge. "Well?"

Fudge, sweating, waved his hands. "This—this is preposterous—"

Raja suddenly transformed into Lawyer attire and with serious expression

Raja with an evil smirk. "Mr. Cornelius, if Sirius isn't officially cleared by tomorrow, I'll have an exclusive interview with Rita Skeeter and make every people stand in that unjust trail will have to step into the court."

Fudge paled. "You wouldn't."

Dumbledore coughed " you better do what he say Cornelius, that kid is embodiment of chaos" 

Raja beamed. "Try minister please!"

Aurors caged peter and left Hogwarts

Just as the Aurors were leaving with Pettigrew— in a magical cart secretly

BOOM.

A dark curse exploded the cage.

Peter Pettigrew transformed back into a rat and vanished into the Forbidden Forest.

Aurors barely survived the attack and informed Bones.

Madam Bones was livid. "HOW?!"

Fudge stammered, "It—it wasn't me!"

Raja explained that he anticipated that attack but never thought somebody had some good information networks.

Raja tapped his chin. "Your visit to Hogwarts was unannounced. Someone in the Ministry and DLME had a good information network."

Madam Bones' expression hardened. "We have a spy."

Raja "I believe they suspected an arrest and the attack is meant to kill Sirius not for peter, when they found out it is peter they decided make him escape rather than kill.

Raja with evil smirk. "Its Good we can confirm they exist And I have a brilliant plan that nobody will be wronged and Sirius gets his freedom legally."

Fudge paled. "Why do I feel like it involves me suffering?"

Raja grinned.

"Oh, because it does Minister."
