Hadrian's POV
Ten minutes later, all the three Dursleys were dragged into the court. They were forced to sit beside Dumbledore and were tied and stuck to the chair. Vernon was trying to get up from the chair. Petunia and Dudley gave up the moment they saw many witches and wizards around them.

"Vernon Dursley, Petunia Dursley, and Dudley Dursley, do you accept that you have tormented Hadrian Marvolo Prince-Slytherin?" The Chief Warlock asked.

"Who is that?" Vernon asked, now noticing so many people around him. He looked scared.

"You know him as Harry Potter." Amelia said.

"The boy deserved it. He was a freak." Vernon said.

"Vernon." Petunia whisper shouted.

"Why was he a freak?" Amelia asked.

"He could do things normal people couldn't. He could do magic." Vernon spat.

"And what did you do when he did magic?" Amelia asked.

"We tried to beat the magic out of him. It worked most of the time. But we had a few bad times when his magic tried to shield him from us. We were doing the freak a favor, and he was ungrateful for that." Vernon said.

"Madam Bones, we know what they are saying is true. We have seen the memories. Why are you asking for more?" The minister asked.

"I want to know if they have any bit of remorse for torturing a child." Amelia said.

"They don't look like they feel for hurting Hadrian in such a way." The Chief Warlock said.

"What do we do now?" Amelia asked.

"The auror can make sure that anyone who knew the Dursleys will know that they died a tragic death due to an accident and blasted away in those vehicles the muggles use. The house would belong to any close relative they have. 

The Dursleys would be given to Severus Prince-Snape, as it was his child that had been tortured to such extremes. Severus Tobias Prince-Snape, you will be given the Dursleys and Dumbledore in the way the trail is going. Please do whatever you want to them, but when we come to your residence after 24 hours of them given to you, make sure they are dead." The Chief Warlock said.

Dad got up and nodded. "Thank you." He said and sat down. 

Marvolo tried to hold dad's hand. Thankfully, dad didn't reject the touch and held Marvolo's hand back. 

I couldn't help but smile. My twins were also watching this and smiling.

When the Dursleys started to protest, they were silenced and taken away to a prison cell.

"Anything you want to add, Dumbledore. We know that Harry Potter is Voldemort's son, but he will not become his father." The Chief Warlock said.

"Marvolo Salazar Gaunt is Voldemort." Albus said.

"Hadrian, you have anything to say about that?" The Chief Warlock asked.

I gave Teddy to George and stood up. "He is not Voldemort. If he was, he should have had Voldemort's trade-mark red eyes. You can't glamor the eyes as it is a side effect of using too much soul magic. Marvolo, as you can see, doesn't have red eyes. That is the biggest proof that he is not Voldemort." I said.

"If he is not Voldemort, can you explain how Severus, his mate, is alive, my boy?" Albus asked.

I smiled. "Nice question. Now, if you ask Madam Bones, she will prove my next statement. I am the Master of Death." I said.

When everyone looked at Amelia, she nodded. "I was there when Lord Death came and told us that Hadrian is, in fact, the Master of Death. He was in the last stage of turning into an immortal, according to Lord Death. The poisons in Hadrian were not the ones killing him, but they did affect him a little at the beginning." She said.

"When the process I was going through reached its final stage, I had to go to Death's realm. There, I was told everything about the soul bond between my dad and Voldemort because I got the same doubt.

Lord Death called for Lady Magic to tell me the answer. She said that she broke the soulmate bond between dad and Voldemort. She broke it because it was a crime for a mate to kill his other mate. Voldemort didn't care who it was when they stood in his way and tried to kill them. When he tried to kill dad, Lady Magic decided that enough was enough and broke the soul bond that was already strained due to Voldemort. 

When Marvolo came into our lives, Lady Magic thought that he would make a good addition to the family and made a bond with dad and Marvolo. So, if dad accepts to get bonded with Marvolo, I was asked to get blood adopted by Marvolo. Lady Magic said that since Marvolo and Voldemort have almost the same blood, Voldemort's blood in me will be overwritten by Marvolo's.

I didn't want to tell this out because if I did, it would look like I am forcing dad to bond with Marvolo just because I don't like a part of my DNA." I said.

"How can we believe you?" The Chief Warlock asked.

"I, Hadrian Marvolo Prince-Slytherin, also known as Harry James Sirius Potter-Black, do swear on my magic that what I have said until now is nothing but the truth, as I say it, as I swear it, so mote it be." I vowed on my magic. Then I cast a lumos to let the people know that I was speaking the truth. When my wand glowed, the ones who were shouting became silent instantly.

"Thank you, Hadrian." Amelia said.

I nodded and sat down as I took Teddy back into my arms.

"Give Albus the antidote. I want to let him see the result." The Chief Warlock said.

Looks like Chief Warlock had some old beef with Albus. What a good thing?!

After the antidote was given and the effect of veritaserum was gone, Albus began to panic. 

"Bring in Molly No name, Ronald Dumbledore, Ginevra Dumbledore, and Hermione Dumbledore, along with the Dursleys into this court, please." The Chief Warlock said.

In a few minutes, all of them were brought it. 

"Heirs Prewett, Lord Prince, and Lord Potter-Black-Slytherin-Gryffindor-Peverell-Emrys-Lefay-Gaunt, please come down." The Chief Warlock said.

I gave Teddy to Marvolo. Teddy obediently went to him and held Marvolo. 

"It will be alright, Teddy. Hadrian will be alright. You have to believe your papa." Marvolo whispered to Teddy as he rubbed his back. Teddy nodded and looked at dad, my twins, and I as we got down.

"Heirs Prewett, Lord Weasley has said that he would not want to see their faces and requested that we give Molly No name, Ronald Dumbledore, Ginevra Dumbledore, and Hermione Dumbledore to you. Do you agree to take them and punish them for the crimes they have committed against your father, Lord Weasley, and your uncles, Lords Prewett?" Chief Warlock asked.

"We do. We shall make sure that they die only after they have received enough punishment for the crimes against our father, uncles, who were supposed to have been our other fathers, and our mate, Hadrian." My twins said.

"Lord Prince, do you agree to take in Dursleys and make sure know that the crime they committed is too high to be forgiven?" Amelia asked.

"Yes. I shall make sure they do." Dad said.

"Lord Potter-Black-Slytherin-Gryffindor-Peverell-Emrys-Lefay-Gaunt, do you agree to take in Albus Percival Wulfric Brian Dumbledore, and make sure he knows the result of the crimes he has committed." The minister asked.

"Yes. I accept that I will make him regret committing those crimes before he dies." I said.

"Where should we leave them?" The aurors asked.

"Number 12, Grimmauld Place." I said.

"The same. Number 12, Grimmauld Place." Dad said.

"Number 12, Grimmauld Place." My twins said.

The Chief Warlock gave a smirk. "Then, please make sure they die 24 hours from now." He said. "This concludes the case. Court dismissed."

 

A/N:
If you are wondering why Ron, Ginevra, and Hermione have the last name Dumbledore now and not during their trial, it is because without the father accepting them as his, the blood of Dumbledore would not show in them, but now that Albus has accepted them as his children, Ron and Ginevra will get the last name Dumbledore, and Hermione as she married Ron.
