Song- Falling Apart
 

Six people stood in front of the crowd, holding hands in an odd sort of chain in front of the Archbishop.

"Sirs, are your Majesties willing to take the Oath?" Archbishop Flitwick asked.

"I am willing," Harry, Draco, Blaise, and Ron replied simultaneously.

"Ma'am, are your Majesties willing to take the Oath?"

"I am willing," Pansy and Hermione recited.

"King Draco and King Harry, will you solemnly promise and swear to govern the Peoples of Slytherin, and of your Possessions and other Territories to any of them belonging or pertaining, according to their respective laws and customs?"

"I solemnly promise so to do."

"Do you promise to abide the laws of marriage that constitute a joint ruling of a kingdom?"

"I solemnly promise to do so."

"Will you, to the both of your powers, cause Law and Justice, in Mercy, to be executed in all your judgements?"

"I will," they both responded.

"King Draco, I now present to you the crown of Slytherin, accompanied with the high title of King of Slytherin and the duties that come with it. Do you accept your title?"

"I accept my title as King of Slytherin, and the duties that come with it."

The silver crown, laden with emeralds and jade, was placed on his head, glinting beautifully off of the light.

"All hail King Draco, ruler of Slytherin!"

"Long live the King!" the cheers rang out.

"King Harry, I now present to you the crown of Slytherin, accompanied with the high title of King of Slytherin and the duties that come with it. Do you accept your title?"

"I accept my title as King of Slytherin, and the duties that come with it."

A matching crown was placed on jet-black curls.

"All hail King Harry, ruler of Slytherin!"

"Long live the King!" the cheers rang out.

"Ronald Weasley and Blaise Zabini, will you solemnly promise and swear to govern the Peoples of Gryffindor, and of your Possessions and other Territories to any of them belonging or pertaining, according to their respective laws and customs?"

"I solemnly promise so to do."

"Do you promise to abide the laws of marriage that constitute a joint ruling of a kingdom?"

"I solemnly promise to do so."

"Will you, to the both of your powers, cause Law and Justice, in Mercy, to be executed in all your judgements?"

"I will," they both responded.

"Will one royal member of each of the six kingdoms please stand and voice your blessing of these two as rulers?"

Harry stood. "As the ruler of Slytherin and Gryffindor, I bestow my blessing upon Ronald Weasley and Blaise Zabini as rulers."

Draco stood. "As the ruler of Durmstrang, I bestow my blessing upon Ronald Weasley and Blaise Zabini as rulers."

Hazel stood, fingers laced with Willow's, who remained sitting. "As the ruler of Hufflepuff, I bestow my blessing upon Ronald Weasley and Blaise Zabini as rulers."

Salazar stood, despite Rowena's glares. "As the ruler of Ravenclaw, I bestow my blessing upon Ronald Weasley and Blaise Zabini as rulers."

Fleur stood. "As the ruler of Beauxbatons, I bestow my blessing upon Ronald Weasley and Blaise Zabini as rulers."

"Ronald Weasley, I now present to you the crown of Gryffindor, accompanied with the high title of King of Gryffindor and the duties that come with it. Do you accept your title?"

"I accept my title as King of Gryffindor, and the duties that come with it."

The gold crown, laden with rubies and fire opal, was placed on his head, the red stones complimenting his own matching hair.

"All hail King Ronald, ruler of Gryffindor!"

"Long live the King!" the cheers rang out.

"Blaise Zabini, I now present to you the crown of Gryffindor, accompanied with the high title of King of Gryffindor and the duties that come with it. Do you accept your title?"

"I accept my title as King of Gryffindor, and the duties that come with it."

A crown matching Ron's rested on Blaise's head.

"All hail King Blaise, ruler of Gryffindor!"

"Long live the King!" the cheers rang out.

"Hermione Granger and Persephone Parkinson, will you solemnly promise and swear to govern the Peoples of Gryffindor, and of your Possessions and other Territories to any of them belonging or pertaining, according to their respective laws and customs?"

"I solemnly promise so to do."

"Do you promise to abide the laws of marriage that constitute a joint ruling of a kingdom?"

"I solemnly promise to do so."

"Will you, to the both of your powers, cause Law and Justice, in Mercy, to be executed in all your judgements?"

"I will," they both responded.

"Will one royal member of each of the six kingdoms please stand and voice your blessing of these two as rulers?"

Harry stood. "As the ruler of Slytherin and Gryffindor, I bestow my blessing upon Hermione Granger and Persephone Parkinson as rulers."

Draco stood. "As the ruler of Durmstrang, I bestow my blessing upon Hermione Granger and Persephone Parkinson as rulers."

Hazel stood. "As the ruler of Hufflepuff, I bestow my blessing upon Hermione Granger and Persephone Parkinson as rulers."

Salazar stood, but Rowena tugged him down, before she sighed and stood. "As the ruler of Ravenclaw, I bestow my blessing upon Hermione Granger and Persephone Parkinson as rulers."

Fleur stood. "As the ruler of Beauxbatons, I bestow my blessing upon Hermione Granger and Persephone Parkinson as rulers."

"Hermione Granger, I now present to you the crown of Durmstrang, accompanied with the high title of Queen of Durmstrang and the duties that come with it. Do you accept your title?"

"I accept my title as Queen of Durmstrang, and the duties that come with it."

The gold crown, laden with sapphires and opal, was placed on her head.

"All hail Queen Hermione, ruler of Durmstrang!"

"Long live the Queen!" the cheers rang out.

"Persephone Parkinson, I now present to you the crown of Durmstrang, accompanied with the high title of Queen of Durmstrang and the duties that come with it. Do you accept your title?"

"I accept my title as Queen of Durmstrang, and the duties that come with it."

The matching crown was placed on her head.

"All hail Queen Persephone, ruler of Durmstrang!"

"Long live the Queen!" the cheers rang out.

The six stared at each other for a moment, almost breathless.

"We did it," Draco whispered, seemingly unable to fathom it.

Pansy broke into a smile, hugging Hermione tightly.

"For those of you who will be staying for the wedding in two day's time, we welcome you!" Blaise cheered.

Cheers met his statement, and Draco caught Rowena's eyes, mouthing thank you. She inclined her head once, and walked away.
