A Young Lord's Entrance

Dumbledore entered the next Wizengamot meeting; he took his seat as chief warlock. Other noticeable people were there, Greengrass, Longbottom, Bones, the minister of magic, and a few others.

"I call this meeting into session" Dumbledore spoke "before the meeting starts is there anything that needs to be brought to attention?"

"Chief Warlock" Augusta Longbottom raised her hand

"Yes Lady Longbottom?"

"Thank you chief Warlock" Augusta Longbottom stood up "I have a young lord who had asked for my assistance, he's here today and would like to make a statement"

The doors opened, and in walked Harry Potter, looking every bit the young lord. He wore expensive looking robes with red trimmings, his posture demanded respect and the only thing he hadn't managed to do was tame his hair.

"Mr Potter" Dumbledore spoke "what are you doing here? You should be at school"

"It has come to my attention that I needed to be here" Harry replied "you see my mother and father are in a coma and I need to fulfil my duty as they cannot. I would like to assign a proxy for the Potter family"

"Mr Potter" Dumbledore spoke in his signature grandfatherly voice "I appreciate your concerns but there is really no need for this..."

"I disagree" Harry interrupted "because it turns out that you've been using the Potter votes without the consent of me or my parents" The crowd began whispering

"Hadrian" Dumbledore tried to quickly salvage the situation "I have been permitted to use them by you parents"

"Verbally?" Harry asked

"Yes" Dumbledore nodded

"Well I'm sorry sir but that's not enough for me, I'd like written proof"

"Is my word not enough?" Dumbledore plastered a hurt look on his face, obviously going for some sympathy

"I don't know you well enough to completely trust your word" Harry responded and the whispering grew, they couldn't believe how the young boy was talking and he was doing it to Albus Dumbledore of all people "I would also like to assign a proxy to the Peverell family, which is another family that I'm head of and another family whose votes you have been using"

Dumbledore paled, how did Harry know about the Peverell family? He couldn't believe this, the Potter and Peverell votes were important, he couldn't just lose them. But it turns out that Harry was not done.

"It's also come to my attention that you've been voting on behalf of the Black family, I would like to assign a proxy for that family as well"

"Mr Potter" Dumbledore replied

"Heir Potter" Harry interrupted "I am Heir Potter"

"Heir Potter" Dumbledore amended "you cannot assign a proxy for the Black family"

"I think you'll find I can" Harry said in a confident voice "you see the current lord Black is Sirius Black" Dumbledore paled even more, how did Harry know about Sirius? "and he is currently unable to perform his duties as he is locked in Azkaban, sad, I know. But, the good news is that I'm his godson. And I think you'll find I've been named his heir, so I am well within my right to assign a proxy for the family"

"Heir Potter" Dumbledore said, he couldn't let Harry take all three, he needed them "I'm afraid I cannot allow you to assign proxies based on claims"

"That's good" Harry smiled as he pulled out three documents "in my hands I have official confirmation from Gringotts and it proves that I am the heir to all three families"

One member came up and took the documents, and handed it to Dumbledore who read through them. He hated the fact that the documents were real and Harry was indeed the heir, his best course of action was to go along with it. It'd be bad if he objected too much, perhaps he could get lucky and be able to sway the proxies.

"Very well Heir Potter" Dumbledore spoke "who are your proxies?"

"For the Potter and Peverell family" Harry spoke "I would like to assign Lady Longbottom as the proxy" Dumbledore internally swore, Lady Longbottom was a tough woman and he knew better than to try and manipulate her.

"Very well, Lady Longbottom, do you accept?" Dumbledore asked

"I do" Augusta nodded

"Very well, you are now the assigned Proxy for the Potter and Peverell family" Dumbledore replied

"For the Black family" Harry continued "I would like to assign Andromeda Tonks"

Dumbledore mentally groaned, Andromeda was another person out of his control and he knew he wouldn't be able to convince her that he knew best. Before anything could be said, the doors opened a second time and Andromeda walked in, looking like the perfect pure-blooded woman.

"Very well" Dumbledore sighed "Andromeda Tonks, do you accept?"

"Yes, I accept" Andromeda nodded

"Andromeda Tonks, you are now the assigned proxy for the Black family"

"Thank you chief warlock" Andromeda replied

"With your permission sir, I would like to leave now as I have classes to attend" Harry said

"Yes, I'm sure you do" Dumbledore said dryly "very well, you may leave"

"Thank you" Harry bowed, he then turned and left with such speed and grace that would put many purebloods to shame.
