## Event information

### Description

Investigation regarding the disappearences of Albus Potter and Scorpius Malfoy and the recent activities regarding Lord Voldemort's return.

**The Investigation on the Rebirth of the Dark Lord** is an ongoing, international investigation after suspicious activity regarding Lord Voldemort's return was prevalent. This is the most intensive case the FBI and several other international organizations have ever worked on.

## Background

Following Harry Potter's meeting with Amos Diggory in August 2020, Albus and Scorpius found out about Amos' request to return his son, Cedric from death. On September 1 2020, they managed to jump off the Hogwarts Express to head to St. Oswalds to get more information on the request. Amos, without thinking twice, approved and they are looking for that time turner.

### Second Alternate Timeline

On November 19 2020, the trio used the true time turner to go back to the second task in 1995 as another chance to revive Cedric Diggory. It was successful, but backfired, at least on Albus and Scorpius's plan. They managed to humiliate Cedric to the point he remains alive, but as a death eater. By killing Neville Longbottom, Lord Vodemort wins the war, with Harry Potter dead, and his sons unborn.

For worse, given Harry Potter's actions back in 2002 (during the original timeline) when Alyssa White's late brother was forced to commit suicide to escape the death eaters (he was abducted), nobody is there to protect her. Although everything in the United States was decently normal, it wasn't until the 2016 Elections, where Hillary Clinton became President of the United States. During the COVID-19 pandemic, Hillary Clinton put the United States under a severe lockdown, with extreme restrictions, lasting until early July, which left multiple seniors, including Alyssa White severely depressed. Due to the lack of graduation events and final moments (such as prom), she sacrificed herself to Necron, but ultimately by Lord Voldemort himself on May 1, 2020 as an attempt to protect others from a similar fate. Given that her acts target Christopher, and her immediate family, the people with the closest relationships to her (with some exceptions) were spared from further Death Eater attacks.

Christopher was later transferred to an Australian branch of Hogwarts, along with several other students, including Chloe White.

Later, the headmaster recieved a call from the United States Department of Justice requesting Christopher's help on the investigation with the FBI. They travelled back to the UK to learn the horrific activities at the Death Eater controlled school, only to find that everything returned to normal.

Scorpius Malfoy described this timeline as hell.

### Restoration and Investigation

Upon returning from counseling, he stumbled across Moaning Myrtle, who was spying on his meetings, and told him about the activities two boys were doing. He told her to stay, and grabbed the Hogwarts Administration Department and the FBI to help. After interrogation, she revealed that the boys are in the Forbidden Forest to save Cedric Diggory.

Christopher discovered the boys and confronted them. They were taken to the headmaster's office where they were disciplined, ranging from a total loss of 200,000 points from Slytherin House to criminal charges.

## Charges

*This is a developing story...*

Several criminal charges have been filed during this investigation.

**Albus Severus Potter** and **Scorpius Malfoy** is charged with felony theft, felony trespassing, felony posession of a time turner and unsolicited use of a time turner. They have also been charged with multiple counts of accidental homicide and knowingly participating in the illegal acts of returning the Dark Lord.

According to Spencer Reid, these crimes result in explusion and possible imprisonment. However, they were spared because of the noble intention of saving Cedric Diggory.

A $500,000 USD fine has been issued to both the delinquents, according to David Rossi.

## Trivia

### During Disciplinary Action

* This is the first time Slytherin House has seen a serious reduction in house points. The highest it seen before this point was a total loss of 25,000 points back in November during the early phase of the D-19 pandemic.
	+ At this point, Slytherin House is the first to have negative points. Professors do keep track of those in the negative. As of 1 December, Slytherin is at -10,000 points. Prior to the deduction, Slytherin House was in the lead with 190K points.
	+ They were later redeemed the remaining points to bump them back up to 0 after two weeks.

* This has been marked as the most hefty felony charge held against a minor in Wizarding History, and the most expensive fine in Wizarding History against a minor as well. Approximately $6 trillion US dollars were lost during the alternate timeline, although quickly recovered when the timeline was restored.
* It was Delphi Riddle who was involved in these events, and would later be charged with multiple felony counts.
* In *Harry Potter and the Cursed Child*, the FBI's involvement does not exist.
