....

"Feeling better?"

The adult let out a belch, before nodding happily as he took a drink of water. He never knew that he could miss clean water until having to go without it for so long.

"Very good, now then there is enough food in the chest to allow for four meals a day for the next four months. I do not plan on it taking that long but…"

"Wait… what are you talking about?"

"Your innocence being declared of course. Haven't you wondered why I didn't simply go to the DMLE with the evidence I have now?"

"Uhhhhh to be honest I was more focused on meeting you… and the food." the man cheekily replied with a grin.

"Understandable, well regardless there are a few more things that need to fall into place before you can be declared a free man. I intend on ensuring that those who left you to rot are thoroughly punished for their choice."

"You aren't going to… kill them, are you?"

"Probably not, however I am going to ensure that others die in order for this all to happen, would you like to know who?"

"No! No… I don't think I am ready for that much truth yet. Listen pup despite the whole planning on killing people thing… well I just don't think I can thank you enough. You saved me, it should be me saving you not the other way around."

"Think nothing of it Padfoot, besides I would like to keep you around, and I am sure Moony feels the same."

"M-Moony is here?"

"He is, I thought it better to meet with you first, but I will have him visit when he has a break tomorrow."

The man could only nod, joyful tears coming to his eyes at how much his life had turned around in less than an hour.

...

"It isn't something to be ashamed of…"

Harry glanced up from where he was working to see a soft smile on Hedwig's face as she stood nearby.

"Helping him, Sirius Black I mean. You shouldn't be ashamed of doing that."

"I know, and I am not. I am merely… curious."

"About?"

" Why "

"You mean why it seems to affect you so much? Is it truly that odd? You are empathizing with him, you remember those days where you went hungry and now you see him starving and relate."

"I do not even know him, why should I care ?"

"Because despite your power and proficiencies, regardless of your intellect or charisma you are still human . You have a desire to fit in and understand those whom you can relate to. It just so happens that it tends to be adults rather than those your own age."

Harry nodded, "I suppose that just leaves more physical relationships for my classmates then hm?"

The white-haired girl shook her head, "I'm not so certain about that. You haven't taken Hermione yet, and you seem to have grown rather fond of just being in the company of Luna rather than always naked with her."

"I suppose… how very odd indeed…"

...

"Father."

"Draco." the man replied with a nod, before narrowing his eyes in annoyance towards the other individual present. "I believe we had a discussion about Mr. Potter, and yet I see you are still spending time with him."

"Father it is…"

" Enough Draco, I have warned you before about wasting your time with those lesser than yourself."

"Mr. Malfoy I actually requested your presence here through your son. I have a proposition to make and…"

"Do I look as if I care boy? I have no interest in funding any of your stupid childish ideas or helping you with any such nonsense. If you cannot figure it out I am an adult, which means that my time is valuable, unlike yours."

"I assure you that I am not asking for…"

"Draco, whatever your insignificant friend wants to ask inform him that I am not interested . He should stick with the other filthy Half-bloods and Mud…"

Suddenly the older blonde found it exceedingly difficult to breathe, along with the fact that his feet no longer touched the ground. His hands went to his throat, but found nothing holding it, instead it was raw power that now levitated and choked the life out of him, Magic originating from a certain raven-haired boy, whose expression had become one of deathly calm, and annoyance.

"It appears I was wrong . Your father is clearly unusable for the task I had in mind."

"M-my apologies my Lord."

"Quite alright Draco, unfortunately it looks as though we will need to select a different Minister of Magic to replace Fudge. This will most likely push back your own nomination as well, but I assure you that you will take the role at some point."

"Thank you, my Lord, I will begin a list of suitable alternatives as soon as we return to the common room."

Harry nodded in acceptance, before dropping the 'adult' from where he had been floating a moment prior. Lucius, while coughing and gasping for his returned breath, watched the two boys begin to depart, his son glancing back for a moment as if in consideration, before turning to follow his proclaimed 'Lord'.

"W-wait…"

"If you intend to draw a Wand on me Lucius Malfoy I guarantee it will be the last thing you do. I did not summon you here to make Draco watch his father die but I also have no problem with doing so."

"N-no… please I was… out of line. I apologize and if you would be kind enough… I would like to start this meeting again."

Glancing backwards the boy-who-lived noticed the man finally calm his breath and stand, an apologetic expression on his face, and let out a sigh before nodding.

"Very well, Lucius Malfoy I have a proposition for you."

"I am listening."

"Minister Fudge has outlived his limited usefulness to me and I am looking for a replacement. My proposal is as such. I will make you Minister of Magic, and after you retire your son will take his place, and after him his own heir. Eventually the Malfoy name will become synonymous with the position and you will go down in history as the start to this new 'dynasty' of sorts."

"And in return for this most generous offer?" the older blonde inquired, knowing that if the boy was intelligent and powerful enough to accomplish this there would most certainly be a catch.

"You will do as I say and pass the laws that I tell you to. For the most part I care little about what happens but there are certain issues I want addressed."

"You want control over me…"

"Oh please Lucius… if I wanted control I could simply take it . No, what I want is someone that will do as I say in the position of power but can function and think for themselves. Whether this is you or the parent of another Slytherin, it matters little to me. I have planned on Draco becoming Minister regardless, but with you taking the role first it will be far easier in the long run."

"I… accept."

A cheerful expression appeared on the teen's face, "Wonderful! Begin preparing your plans and cabinet, I expect you will be in power before the end of the school year."

"Of course," the man whispered, before turning to leave.

"Oh, and Lucius? This goes without saying but if you cross me… I will bury you."
