Chapter 20: Patronus
The day before the hearing...
"But we don't know where to find him," said Harry.
"What if you write him a letter?" suggested Madam Bones.
"But..." Harry began to reply, but Dudley suddenly cut in. "We can't, Madam. The Dumbledore vigilante group is a secret. Not even an owl could find him. If we want to reach him, we need to send a letter to the Weasley family."
"Do you mean he's under a Fidelius Charm?" asked Madam Bones.
"Wow, Madam, you're really clever. No wonder you became the Head of Magical Law Enforcement," Dudley praised her.
A small blush appeared on Madam Bones' cheeks, surprised by the sudden compliment from Dudley.
"Hahaha, Susan, look at your aunt's cheeks," Dudley teased.
The sudden conversation snapped Amelia Bones out of her thoughts, and she glared at Dudley.
'You brat!' thought Amelia before deciding to continue the conversation.
"Madam, how about I send a letter to my friend first and ask for Sirius' whereabouts, or I could ask Professor Dumbledore?" Harry suggested.
"No, Harry, this hearing needs to be kept secret," said Amelia, deciding to reveal the truth. "I've seen your memories, and not even Dumbledore managed to get justice for Sirius Black, so we need to take the enemy by surprise."
Amelia Bones had decided to handle this secretly, even hiring the Tonks family to help. They agreed not to speak of it to anyone. Ted Tonks had agreed to be Sirius Black's legal counsel, and Nymphadora had decided to keep it secret, telling only her parents (not even the Order of the Phoenix).
As an extra precaution, she asked her Aurors to take an Unbreakable Vow not to reveal or leak any information before the hearing in the Wizengamot. As an ex-girlfriend of Sirius Black, she felt compelled to help him after learning the truth.
"Ah, I have an idea. How about we send him a Patronus?" suggested Dudley.
Hearing this, Amelia's eyes lit up. Why hadn't she thought of that?
"But the problem is we can't use magic here," Harry said, feeling a bit regretful.
"Nah, Harry, we can Apparate side-by-side with Madam Bones, and I also have a phoenix," Dudley said, not realizing he had just leaked his secret (not-so-secret) to Madam Bones.
"WHAT?! You have a phoenix?" she exclaimed.
Hogsmeade, near Hogwarts...
"So we just need to focus on the intention of sending the message to the person, right?" Dudley asked Amelia Bones.
After arriving in Hogsmeade, they moved closer to Hogwarts, using one of Harry Potter's Invisibility Cloaks, while Madam Bones simply Disillusioned herself.
"Yes, remember the intention and the message," instructed Madam Bones.
'Sirius, it's me, Harry Potter. Madam Amelia wants to meet you. She might be able to help get justice for you. This is a secret, don't tell anyone about it. Please come to my house, she'll be there too,' Harry thought. "Expecto Patronum."
A full corporeal Patronus suddenly flew out, carrying the message to Sirius.
"Wow, that looks easy. I want to try," Dudley said, closing his eyes. "Expecto Patronum."
"Who did you send a message to?" Harry asked.
Susan suddenly smacked Dudley's head.
"Ouch! Don't hit me, Susan. You always target my head. Why not my body?"
"Because your body is full of fat, so the head is a better target," Susan replied.
"You..." Dudley pointed at her.
"May I ask to whom you sent the message?" Madam Bones asked.
"Oh, it is...."
SPOILER PATRONUS...
Suddenly, a Patronus in the shape of a bird flew inside a mansion.
"Tommy is a coward, Tommy is a son of a Muggle, Tommy just knows how to hide, Tommy doesn't have a nose, Tommy is afraid of Dumbledore."
After a minute, all the Death Eaters fell silent as they noticed Voldemort's face full of rage.
"FIND OUT WHO IS PLAYING THIS PRANK ON ME!!!"
Suddenly, another Patronus flew in...
