Remus and Mrs Weasley took Ron and Hermione back to Sirius's house while Harry and Sirius took Draco and Narcissa to eat.

"That went better than expected." Sirius said

"Yes it did. Caught himself in his own pride." Draco smiled

"I'm telling you there's never been a way this wouldn't go in your favor. If his own child is testifying against him you know he's done horrible things." Harry told them

"I'm just hoping that this will be over soon." Narcissa said "all this stress isn't good for any of us."

"Fudge is going to want to look further into it. Get him for all we can." Sirius sighed

"It's what's best. I really didn't think it would be over this easily." Draco said

"With Lucius it's never easy." Narcissa sighed

"You have reliable witnesses to what he's done or owned. He's just going to try to drag this out." Harry shrugged

"You're right about that Harry. He will drag this out for as long as possible."

"With the Nott's testifying against him I think we have a good chance of ending this quicker than he wants us to." Narcissa told them

"There's going to be another court date. How many do you think Fudge will let him have?" Draco asked

"No more than 6. Never more than 6 with him." Sirius informed them

"Six days we spend in that court room telling people the evil he's done and may do. Now that is depressing." Draco looked down at his lap.

"The more things you tell them court about the longer they can put him away." Harry put his hand on Draco's shoulder. "He won't get out of Azkaban this time"

"What you told the court today will play a part in his punishment." Sirius reassured the teen

"I hope so. He deserves a fate worse than death for what he did." Draco sighed

"Yes he does. The only thing that kept me sane was my child. When he took my daughter from me..... I was broken for weeks." Narcissa's voice broke

"It'll be okay. Just think of it this way Narcissa, that baby didn't have to witness what her father is capable of. She didn't have to live in fear as you and Draco did." Harry said

Narcissa smiled at Harry. "You're right."
