Chapter 149 - A War Not a Game

The only reason he didn't contact more members was because I ordered him not to do so, I was more than capable of taking care of them on my own so all of us put together would have wiped the floor with them, and to prove my point, we did, in fact so much so that someone needs to actually wipe the floor. Anyway, I made sure he called you all instead of some of the other order members because that way you could see me in action and see I'm serious about fighting Voldemort and so you could see what I'm about.

Plus it helped Dumbledore believe Sirius and Remus are loyal to the order, and the same applies to you guys. You guys aren't like the other order members, I don't know them enough to make an accurate judgement but from what I've seen they are loyal to Dumbledore and not the protection of the people.

Dumbledore may be an exceptional wizard but he is no way capable of leading a war against Voldemort, because that's what we are in Kingsley, a war. His ineffective leadership last time is what lead to the whole of wizarding Britain making a baby famous for stopping the biggest dark lord this country has ever seen.

Dumbledore is ineffective and he is dishonest, you're all pawns to him and you don't need to know more than he tells you to. For example, I bet he didn't tell you that he doesn't plan to kill Voldemort yet, mostly because nobody can yet. I could have killed Voldemort right then and there if Dumbledore didn't show up and I really wanted to, but I stalled and let him show up and stop me because I needed an excuse not to kill him. Voldemort is unkillable at the moment."

"Why?" Kingsley had to admit that he was very intrigued "if it was true then it would make a lot of our efforts pointless"

"He's not immortal Kingsley, he's just not capable of dying yet, he will die. I promise you that, but he will not die yet. Not this year, maybe next year or the year after, I really can't tell. It depends on how long it takes me to remove his methods of cheating death."

"Methods?" Kingsley asked

"Voldemort, while being a complete and utter arse, was smart enough not to rely on one method to stop himself from dying. Dumbledore knows about at least one of his methods but even then, I'm not sure how much he knows about it. I doubt he knows about his second contingency plan"

"Would you mind telling me what those contingencies are?"

"A little" Harry admitted "Kingsley, I'm tempted to pull a Dumbledore on you and everyone else and tell you it's a need to know basis but I'm not like him, fortunately. I will tell you, however if you want to know then it'll be after my trial and after you swear an unbreakable vow to me that says you won't repeat the information I tell you without my permission. You may think it's extreme but I'd rather keep my cards as close to my chest as possible, I hope you find that fair."

"Hmm" Kingsley thought about it for a bit "well it's better than not knowing I guess"

"Fair warning, what I tell you could throw your world upside down. And if you break down then I am not patting your back and dragging you away from bars because you've become depressed and turned to alcohol and drugs"

"That big, huh?"

"That BIG" Harry emphasised the last word as much as he possibly could as possible "as in 'change the whole way you want to approach the war' big"

"Very well then, I'll tell Moody and Tonks and see if they agree"

"Oh don't worry about Tonks" Harry smirked

"You already got your teeth into her, haven't you?" An amused Kingsley asked

"No! I would never!" Harry shouted dramatically "Remus would be jealous if I did" He added in a whisper.

"True" Kingsley snorted "by the way, who taught you to fight like that? I know it wasn't Albus or any of the order?"

"I'm not allowed to say Kingsley, sorry" Harry spoke apologetically

"Quite alright, I completely understand. So, do I get to know what you're planning to do for your trial?"

"Well, all I can let you know at the moment is that it will include some very dramatic acting, on my part and a stunned audience. I will also have to paint myself in a very negative light, incredibly negative, like I'd look about as evil as Voldemort but hopefully it will all work out."

"Hopefully" Kingsley nodded. "what about your wife?"

"You think she doesn't know?" Harry looked at Kingsley with an 'are you stupid look?' "I value my life, believe it or not, and lying to Ginny about going out and hunting bad guys is the fastest way for me to get hurt."

"No offence to Ginny but you just took on you-know-who himself and you're worried about her?" Kingsley looked a bit confused

"Kingsley you've never seen Ginny angry, I'm just glad she doesn't aim her anger at me, mostly because I'm smart enough to avoid making her angry and the fact that we don't like arguing with each other. Besides, if Voldemort is angry at me then I can shoot him in the face, can't exactly use the same approach when Ginny gets mad at me, can I?"

"True" Kingsley snickered.
