Hello, everyone! :D
Here's hoping you've all had an excellent week so far. :) It's been a while since I thanked everyone for their support with "Innocent", so thank you - this is such a monstrously long story that sometimes it's hard to be motivated to finish chapters on time, but your reviews help me stay on track. :D
And, due to so many responses to the last chapter, I was super-motivated and actually managed to get the next one up a day early! :D
Here's the preview:
“The charges, then-” Fudge gave Sirius a nasty smile and accepted a rather long piece of parchment from Rattler. “-against the accused are as follows: That he did knowingly, deliberately and in full awareness of the illegality of his actions, having trained as an Auror, personally contribute to the war’s magical and non-magical casualties – more specifically the deaths Peter Pettigrew and thirteen muggles.
"The accused did also partake in the use of dark magic like the Unforgivable curses during his time as a Death Eater, and passed confidential information to He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named that resulted in deaths – more specifically, the deaths of the Potters, Boneses, McKinnons, Meadoweses and also of individuals including Caradoc Dearborn, Benjy Fenwick and Gideon and Fabian Prewett.”
Fudge paused for breath then, and looked at Sirius, who met his gaze calmly and waited for him to continue. Remus quirked an eyebrow in Sirius’ direction, and Sirius let one corner of his mouth twitch upward to show that yes, he was all right.
“Mr Black is also accused of escaping the prison fortress, Azkaban-”
“Objection,” Sirius said, with a lazy grin.
We're well and truly into the trial now... :D
Until next week (Wednesday)!
