Sanctuary I beg of you

Summary:

Harry inherits as a dragel following the final battle and forms a circle with Ron and Hermione out of necessity as they try to find their way in the world they fought for while it becomes increasingly anti-creature. Until one day as they have a gathering to celebrate the birth of a child they are attacked by enforcers, leading to a final desperate attempt to escape.

Notes:

In this universe the events of TBDH happen without Harry ever being directly acknowledged by Terarius who leaves with every other dragel student and Snape at the end of sixth year. Other changes to canon are that everything that happened in the seventh book with Draco instead happened with Daphne Greengrass, and it was her mother who lied that Harry was dead in the final battle. And further changes will be mentioned if relevant.

More characters and relationships to be added when appropriate.

Chapter Text

"Attention all occupants of The Burrow" a magically enhanced voice echoed throughout the wards, everyone froze Molly and Arthur cooing over the baby held by Harry, Ron and Hermione dancing together, conversations held by Seamus with Bill and Fleur, Teddy playing with Victorie both of the robes already muddy at the hems. The joyful atmosphere of celebration changing instantly into one of fear "this is Percival Weasley, British representative of the ICW Protection Against Feral Creatures, I have thirty wands with me, surrender the creature known as Harry Potter and his spawn for destruction or it will be taken by force" the voice continued without a hint of emotion.

Every eye turned as Molly began to run towards the heavily armed contingent in navy blue combat robes with black edging at the ward edge "Percy no" she cried watching her son stand emotionless at the wards edge dressed in the same combat robes with numerous medals attached to the front as well as the two pips showing his rank as a lieutenant.

"Mrs Weasley, you have been given our demand,you have one minute to comply or we will treat failure as complicity and the punishment as you are aware for harbouring these beasts is death" Molly fell to her knees in front of her third son, begging him to reconsider despite having seen his actions reported in the paper where he was depicted as a merciless enforcer and recalling a particularly infamous front page showing him slitting the throat of a newly inherited dragel.

"We never told you after how you reacted to Harry, but dragels run in our blood as well" Molly spoke, bringing out her wings, "if you insist on enforcing this order you will be apprehending me first" as her dragel aspects were brought forwards her eyes sought those of her boy, trying desperately to see even a hint of love, or care for his family every remaining member of which was stood behind also bringing the halfling forms out.
"Avada Kedavra" he hissed, striking down his mother as she died her eyes still locked on him.

At this, everyone in the garden moved at once as Bill, Charlie, George, and Ginny began to run towards the body of their mother Arthur's eyes were fixed on his third son and he was frozen in disbelief, Harry frantically gathered both his children gripping Teddy's arm in one hand, while holding Rose, the second child he had stood as third for, in his other arm. His eyes locked onto Hermione who had already summoning their emergency supplies and thrown the expanded bag to Harry they as Ron stood guard.

"Anti apperation wards" someone yelled from the small group of guests who had been invited to celebrate Rose's blessings. Then a red arc emerged from the wands of four of the enforcers behind Percy, it cut through the group of guests who'd begun to flee, severing several heads or upper torsos as it went through several shields which had been hurried raised as if they weren't even there.
"She was pregnant you monsters" Bill growled out seeing his wife's head landing next to his daughter's as Victorie had been grabbed by her mother as they tried to flee.

As their heads rolled on the ground they came to a stop next to the headless corpses of Seamus and Dean who had moved towards the front trying to raise protective shields.

"Two less beasts to be put down then" crowed one of the enforcers as they shifted the four who had cast the arc into the centre of their formation, all of whom appeared exhausted as if the spell had taken a lot out of them.
Bill and Charlie both launched themselves at the mocking enforcer their wings powering them towards the group only for a rain of spears to come down pinning them and Lavender who had been moving to assist.

Hermione was still entirely focused on the emergency portal she was trying to force through the barriers that had been laid both by the PAFC prior to this attack and the larger ones that covered Europe preventing any cross realm travel.
Ron was still guarding her and fighting three enforcers at once while Harry was almost feral crouched protecting the children.

Ginny and George were tearing at the enforcers attempting to get to Percy who had been surrounded and guarded by his unit despite the half a dozen who lay dying there were still too many and both jokers were becoming steadily more injured.

Arthur was fighting to get to his eldest sons who were pinned down by spears but still alive trying desperately to free themselves, he was breathing ice to attempt to freeze the attackers but his left arm had been severed early on and his attempts with one arm were being easily rebuffed.

Ron let out a heart shattering cry as his chest was caved open by a spell which cut through his ribs leaving his internal organs on open display, on seeing this Hermione lept towards his attacker using her magic to pull Harry into the portal along with the children and activating it forcibly transporting the three of them just as he saw the flash of a killing curse hitting his companion and felt both his bonds he had shatter.

 

"Sanctuary" Harry cried, his wings steadily turning black as he collapsed where the portal dropped him gripping Rose and Teddy as hard as he could.
They made an interesting sight to the waiting crowd, all dressed in formal robes, Teddy's still muddy from where he'd been playing with his cousin minutes earlier, harry with sprays of blood likely from his bonded who had died in front of him by Rose still pristine as she was held securely by her third.

As all waiting for admission into Nevarh turned seeing an injured submissive holding onto two youngsters while sobbing, with both children also crying. The guards wearing the formal livery of the border patrol were already moving towards the huddle. The leads guard stopped a few feet from where Harry had collapsed," I am Jacobis of the border guard, may we take you to a healer" holding his hands up showing the lack of weapon, when there was no response to this he continued, "We will not separate you from the children but you all look to be in need of medical attention"
Harry struggled with himself for a moment before standing, still gripping his children as hard as he could safely looked at the guard, "we will come, but first can someone please message Sadara matriarch of the Prewitt clan and tell them." He hestiated contemplating for a moment "tell her, we know you want nothing to do with us, your lack of response has been very clear but please for the sake of any love you once had for your daughter, help us please." As the guards stood behind Jacobis glanced at each other Harry dropped to one knee his wings snapping back around the three of them as he began to weep.
