Elves and Allies
It was a smiling Harry who turned to his father in law "right Dan, lets answer those questions. The wedding will take place at the newly refurbished St Mary's church on Saturday at one o'clock with the Reverend Stewart officiating at the muggle ceremony, we're already married in the magical world and Gringotts will supply us with any documentation we require! Not all our guests will be strictly human so some glamour's will be needed."
"They've fixed it already?" asked an astonished Dan Granger
"No, the just confirmed it could be done in time. This will be my wedding present to my beautiful bride"
Hermione couldn't help it!
That was the most romantic thing she'd ever heard, her prince charming was rebuilding a church so she could have her perfect day so ignoring everyone in the room, she grabbed Harry and kissed him, putting every ounce of love into a kiss that lit the entire castle and changed the great hall ceiling to a beautiful sunny day.
The kiss settled any doubts Dan had that his little girl was all grown up; he just really didn't want to see it!
It was Minerva who spoke first, "I really don't want to take points off Gryffindor for inappropriate behaviour" she joked
This broke the kiss, not because of he points but the news they had to impart "sorry Headmistress but my wife and I will both be leaving Hogwarts"
A chorus of "what!" was heard before Hermione continued, "my husband and I are both of age, or will be shortly but that's not the main reason for leaving"
Harry and Hermione both, wandlessly and silently conjured a dozen red roses each and levitated them to Minerva and Poppy, Harry then presented Emma with a Dozen white roses and was about to do the same for Winky when a blushing Dobby beat him to it.
"As you can see we have a great deal of control over our magic, we just tell it what to do, supply the power and it does it, no incantations or wand movements required" he said
Harry waved his hand at Sirius who, much to his shock transformed into Gilderoy Lockhart, bedecked in purple robes.
"Also when one of us reads or learns something the other gets the information as well, we couldn't sit exams as it would be cheating!" said Hermione waving her hand at Sirius who transformed into Sibyll Trelawney, accompanied with a bottle of cooking sherry.
"That's just cruel," laughed Harry while changing Sirius back to normal "those are glamour charms which some off our guests will use to mingle with the muggles"
Minerva was astonished at the way they had casually performed advanced magic, looking at the beautiful gift of roses she could see every petal was perfect, the aroma was perfect and they had even thought to remove the thorns!
She was loath to admit that even with a wand she couldn't have done better, or even as well as her two favourite now ex-students!
Sirius was also amazed at their power "can I borrow Hedwig to contact Moony? I need reinforcements so you two can expect to be pranked!"
"Dobby can elves do glamour charms on themselves so we don't scare the muggles?"
"Harry elves can remain unseen to wizards and muggles"
"That wasn't what I asked Dobby."
A confused Dobby snapped his fingers and Emma said, "He looks enough like Harry to be his brother!"
"Dobby would you do me the honour of standing by my side when I marry this gorgeous young woman on Saturday? Would you be my best man, or best elf even?" asked Harry
"Winky would you do me the honour of being my bridesmaid? There may be one other but we will find out later on today" said Hermione
The two elves were totally shocked, not only were they wanted at the occasion but to be seen standing next to these wonderful young people was beyond a dream, it was unthinkable, it was happening as they both nodded their acceptance not willing to trust their voices.
More hugs all round and the promise of invitations to Minerva and Poppy before Hermione settled everyone down
"We have a very long to-do list here but if everyone helps we may see Christmas!" stated Hermione
Harry just shook his head, "That would be funny if it wasn't true! Ok let's start with Hogwarts, we need ideas and need them today so Headmistress if you would meet with the staff for discussions we could reconvene later today. I think the school will have to close for the Holidays but we're aware that not all students go home and very aware of a certain ball coming up so Dobby if you could check with Gringotts if we own a suitable property that could temporarily house the students and hold the Yule Ball"
Harry was all business now.
"Winky, we're going to be receiving some elves in poor condition, anything you need is yours and I really like those tunics, could we get something like that for all the elves? I want the names of the worst offending wizard's, I'm now the elves head of house so they have to tell you.'
He was looking directly at both elves for the next part
"There's also going to be a great deal of work in the following weeks I want to make sure everyone takes time to eat and sleep – no working themselves to exhaustion. We'll speak to Ragnok today and organize the purchase and restoration of the church"
The adults just couldn't believe here was this young man giving orders like a general and marshalling his troops for the battles ahead.
"Sirius get Remus here as we have a special project that's right up your street! How's your potion ability? Remus is a brilliant DADA teacher and you couldn't be worse than Snape!"
Sirius just had to say something "now just wait a minute pup! I'm the one supposed to be looking after you not the other way around."
His laughter let them all know he wasn't angry, just shocked at his godson as he changed his, no everyone's lives.
