Love, Marriage, and Pranks
Albus Dumbledore pinched the bridge of his nose wearily as he looked on from his seat at the head table. Usually he would have the Daily Prophet in front of him. Not today, as he was holding off letting the owls deliver the papers and any letters to the students until after breakfast, knowing no one would be able to eat if they saw that morning’s front page.
The new minister of magic, Kingsley had enforced a new law. He had not wanted to do it he really truly had not. Unfortunately, it was the only known way to prevent the wizarding world dying out. Their world’s population had taken a major decline during the war just gone. If they did not take immediate action then their people would surely die out within a decade if that.
Therefore, with a heavy heart and a shared glance of worry with his wife Minerva McGonagall, that Albus stood up and proceeded to gain the attention of the student population of Hogwarts.
He placed a Sonorus charm on his voice so it would carry all over the large hall. He cleared his throat, immediately gaining the attention of everyone present. He took a deep breath and said, “I presume you are all wondering why the post is late this morning?”
At several nods he continued, “I am afraid that is due to me holding it off until after breakfast. I am afraid it was necessary to have done so. I am very much certain no one would have eaten or been as calm as you are all right now if I in fact had allowed the post to be delivered during breakfast.”
He paused for a moment and continued on, “I am afraid I have such news that is not of the pleasant Varity to say the least. I am going to tell you what that news is before anyone can read the front page of the Daily Prophet. I feel it more prudent that I reveal all instead of everyone discovering such news via the newspaper.”
He noticed that everyone started to look worried, very worried. He continued after bracing himself for what he was about to reveal, knowing it was not going to be well received in the least.
“It has been brought to my attention by the new Minster of magic that the population during the war has taken a dangerous decline since the war was won this May just past. The ministry fears it is most likely that the wizarding population will die out within less than a decade if even that long, that is if immediate action is not taken and abided by” he revealed to them all.
He added after swallowing thickly, his gaze truly sombre. His blue eyes had lost their usual shine and twinkle. The situation was in fact that dire. “The ministry has spent the entire summer discussing at length how to remedy this unfortunate situation.”
He added, “After much deliberation it has been decided that a law shall be enforced, a law not seen or used since the founders of Hogwarts were in fact teenagers. This ultimately means a marriage law is already in effect since this morning.”
He paused as loud gasps of horror echoed throughout the great hall. He raised his hands and exclaimed, “Silence I am not done speaking yet. I realise this is not the best nor most convenient of news, but am afraid under the dire circumstance it is indeed very necessary as well as compulsory.”
He continued on, “The law states that all witches and wizards between the ages of sixteen and forty are eligible under the law. All who are eligible and are still in school must conceive their first child within a year of graduating. Whilst all over the age of seventeen are required to conceive within year of being married.”
He went on, noticing everyone’s horror growing by the second. Many girls were silently crying whilst many boys looked terrified. “The ministry has already chosen a spouse who is most suited to you. Couples selected are not at random. The ministry conduct several tests, such as how compatible you are with your chosen. The tests are never wrong, never.”
He continued on, knowing they all had to know before all read the paper. “letters with your chosen spouse to be will arrive this morning along with the newspaper, hence why I prevented the post being delivered until now. I wanted you all to be aware before your saw the paper and read the official letters sent from the ministry.”
He concluded, “All lessons are halted for the day, due to chosen spouses of years six and seven visiting the school if they are not already students. I shall now release the charm holding the owls back from delivering mail.”
He released the charm followed by the one he had placed on his voice. He then retook his seat next to his wife, looking truly weary. He turned to his wife as Minerva commented in a voice full of fear, “My god, Albus, this is a disaster. The students are going to be truly hysterical went they find out who has been selected as their spouses.”
She added looking truly distressed, “Their freedom of choice it has been took from them. Seventh years engaged and due to marry once out of Hogwarts will be separated, this is so cruel Albus.”
Albus replied sadly, “I know Minerva. Kingsley truly did not want to do this. The ministry did not have a choice. Our people and world are at risk of ceasing to be. The war with Tom I fear has practically depleted many generations. I fear not even this law would have been possible either if Harry had not defeated Tom when he did.”
Minerva and Albus scanned the entire hall, watching as students started to read their mail. Soon the whole hall was awash with the sound of screams and raised voices. Many teens ran out of the great hall, whilst young couples sobbed and clung to each other in anguish and loss.
Severus Snape looked on as emotionless as usual, although on the inside was a different story entirely. He was in hell. He not being forty for another year yet was unfortunately eligible to marry under the ridiculous law damn it all to hell. His opinion of the whole law was less then flattering to say the least.
He had already received his letter that morning. His chosen was a witch similar in age to him. She was a mediwitch at St. Mungos. He was to meet her that up and coming morning. He was dreading it.
Lupin got lucky, seeing as he was already married to Tonks and they had their son, Teddy. Snape envied him. He had not wanted to marry nor had he wanted children. However, he now had no choice, or else stripped of his magic and tossed into the muggle world.
He surely refused with a passion to be subjected to such a cruel and bleak fate. He was born with his magic, was a part of him and it would stay just that if he had any say in the matter.
He not spied and risked his life during the war, only to end up as a worthless squib and tossed out on his ass to rot in the muggle world. Ha, not damn bloody likely Snape thought viciously. Fucking fate owed him huge for the shitty cards life had dealt him so far.
