"What!" Fleamont yelled in surprise
"Professor Morpheus, give me one good reason to not fire you right now," I said slowly my tone as cold as the atmosphere of the room
"Aside from the fact that you cannot as I have not broken a single school rule, there is also the fact that I haven't even broken a wizarding law," He replied calmly
Before I could reply Fleaumont said heatedly, "Harming Muggles like this is against the law!"
Morpheus gave him a side glance then looked back at me, "Albus you know Britain's laws better than I please tell me if I have broken one,"
I sighed while rubbing my forehead this matter had blown completely out of proportion, "No you have not, although what Fleaumont mentioned is a law if Morpheus saw what he claims he saw. An unsafe environment for a magical child, he was well within his right to act. I just wish he wasn't so brutal,"
Suddenly remembering something I added, "Although if Miss Prince and Mr. Snape want to charge Profesor Morpheus their words would be the deciding factor,"
"I do not wish to charge him," Eileen said resolutely while hugging her sons back to her chest
"Neither do I," Young Snape tried to seem calm but I could hear the trembling of his voice
"Then it's settled now can we move on to the reason why everyones here?" Morpheus said his creepy smile still spread across his lips
"I agree, although I did enjoy this show I would like to discuss what Sirius has done," Arcturus said expressionlessly
Arcturus black agreeing with Morpheus's methods? No one was surprised.
"Wait before we get started I don't think I want my son attending a school with a savage professor like this," Euphemia said with worry
Morpheus glanced at the Potter pair and replied, "You act as if I did something taboo. The potters themselves have a long history of brutality. Even recently your husband over there has been reported to have brutally killed many during the last war. Even taking his time on some of his victims,"
I could tell the way Morphued phrased the word 'Victims' brought unease to the family.
Sigh, I just want to get this over with why must everything keep getting worse?
Before the Potters could reply I interjected, "Mrs. Potter you and I can discuss this further if you want but, we must move this along. Your son and his friends Sirius Black, Remus Lupin, and Stiles Marr have repeatedly attacked students. Their preferred victim being Mr.Snape,"
Seeing the aghast reactions of the Gryffindor's parents I continued, "Professor Morpheus along with the other Professors have tried everything to make them stop. Today was the final straw if your children can not behave better you may look for schooling elsewhere. Now students please go home with your parents for the day,"
A deathly silence permitted throughout the room.
"You will not have this problem again," Arcturus said before grabbing Sirius by the shoulder and flooing away
Soon the Potters left, and then the Lupins followed by the Marrs.
"I will go back with you to assess the damage, Morpheus if you could please wait here," I said before leaving with the Snapes
As soon as I arrived at the house the strong scent of alcohol assaulted my senses.
Scrunching up my nose I heard Eileen say to young Severus, "Go to your room sweety,"
When he was out of earshot she said quietly, "Follow me,"
Soon we arrived at a bedroom door, as she opened I saw exactly what Morpheus had done.
Mr. Snape sat in a chair facing the door, his hands were a bloody mess. His mouth agape and his eyes widened in terror.
I instantly could tell he was frozen in place, but what was interesting was the fact his terror-filled eyes didn't seem to be because of me another wizard arriving. It seemed as if his mind was elsewhere.
It seemed as if he was staged just for me.
Eileen began to speak, "It all happened too fast, one second Tobias raised his hand to strike me for allowing a wizard in his home, and the next Tobias was screaming in pain,"
I nodded slowly, "Professor Morpheus seemed to have healed him up just enough to keep Tobias from dying,"
He also erased all traces of his magic, so quickly and efficiently who is he really?
*Morpheus Pov*
As Albus reappeared in his office I could tell he had many questions. Before he sat down Albus fed Fawkes something.
"I'm surprised at how strict you were on those students," I commented idly
He smiled warmly, "If I wasn't you would have just kept troubling me. Plus those parents wouldn't want their students to stop coming to Hogwarts, especially the purebloods. This way everyone wins,"
"Using their status against them. How sly," I replied with a small smile
He laughed slightly at that, "to be the headmaster of Hogwarts you have to be able to handle these situations,"
"What you did to Tobias some circles would say it was Art," Albus mentioned as if his comments was just a fleeting thought
Sadly it is a habit from when I was on the run for a portion of my life. I would turn my victims into a beautiful art display. Taunting my pursuers. Ah back in my hotblooded 100s.
"I didn't intend it to, I just wanted to get this whole ordeal over with," I laughed at his probe
"Morpheus to be frank, you don't seem like the type of person to care about bullying," Albus said while taking a sip of tea the elves popped in
"Perhaps not, truthfully I was in a foul mood, and those children were beginning to annoy me," I replied truthfully
"Something I could help with?" he asked lightly
"None of your concern my friend," I replied with a toothy smile
Suddenly Albus's eyes narrowed, "what are you doing here Professor? You obviously didn't come to Hogwarts just to teach,"
Losing my smile I decided to give him an honest answer, "Albus, the last thing I would want to do is harm Hogwarts. Maybe one day we will look back at this conversation as better times,"
With that cryptic statement, I left his room.
Maybe Albus wasn't so bad.
*Narrator pov *
Sirius sat alone with his grandfather, neither where talking.
"What am I to do with you, Sirius," Arcturus said calmly
"We were just joking! I don't know why they are so bloody worked up about it," Sirius yelled in indignation
Arcturus slapped the backside of Sirius's head, "Don't yell when you are talking to me, boy,"
Sirius rubbed the back of his head in silent shame.
"Don't pick fights so openly if you have learned anything from our family you should have learned that much. Plus don't mess with that Severus boy anymore," Arcturus said sternly
"Why?" Sirius couldn't figure out why his grandfather was speaking up for someone technically of lower blood
"Some day when you are older you will begin to see things others younger cannot, just like how I see that boy will one day be powerful," Arcturus replied sagely
Sirius fell into deep thought, "Fine, I'm sorry grandfather,"
Arcturus smirked, "I will keep your parents at bay as long as you perform better in school,"
