' The wizarding world had believed once ' You Know Who ' was dead for good that everything would simply go on as it had or even become better. In some cases that was true. Many Children who had been students at Hogwarts during that dark times were now sending their own children to Hogwarts to learn to be great wizards and witches.

Oh it had taken time to repair the damage, death eaters were still in hiding though they numbered only a few now and still had to be hunted down and wrongs had to be set right. Over the years it did appear all would get better. Then something happened much to the shock of those who had been peacefully enjoying a time with out fear never saw coming.

Of course Hagrid and some others in closer ties with the magical world besides the world of wizardry and witchery could have warned people nd they had. Their warnings however fell on deaf ears.

First it was the werewolves, boggarts, Vampires, and other creatures. They simply broke out of Azkaban . The Dementers far from trying to stop them had actually ignored them for how could a Dementer recgonize a soul in a creature that had no soul like the night dwellers? Why would a Dementer pay attention to an animal that displayed no human happiness or memories like the Lycans?

While Aurors and hunters scrambled to track down these prisoners other parts of the wizard world erupted. Dragons rose to fight other dragons and then turned their ire on anything within their realm including the magic folk. Unicorns and Thestrals attacked each other in the forests. The centaurs declared war on any who entered the land they laid claim to and even the water creatures like mermaids suddenly rose up and turned against the wizards and their ilk.

The reason should have been no surprise if anyone had thought to listen to those like Hagrid who spoke for the creatures but no one had. The reason was simple. The influx of new witches and wizards meant more and more land was being taken from the other magical creatures. They built houses and charming towns and kept them tiny but no amount of magic could actually take a piece of land and make it have no beginning or end unless one wished to trap oneself into an isolation bubble which was very different.

They encroached upon the environment driving many creatures further and further into plots of land set aside with little thought that any creature would consider it enough room for hunting, growing, and rearing it's own family. Those of a magical talents simply assumed that the creatures would use some spell known only to them and make do.

The creatures rebelled and decided not to make do.

So once again war tore at the wizarding world. Most wizards and witches tried to stay out of it not wanting to fight creatures who had actually existed in the magic realm long before any wizard waved his wand. Hagrid was stricken to see so many of his friends kill or be killed and the forbidden forest began to look like war torn battle field. The students had been forced to watch the battle from inside a field that protected Hogwarts. Sometimes explosions of fire would wake them up as dragons collided with each other in the blackness of night.

Finally once the folk were convinced the entire wizarding worlds would be forced into the muggle world something happened. Suddenly the fighting stop and the ministry of magic was called forth to a far off land that no wizard or witch had ever gone.

They had met up with something in that cold land. For weeks they were not heard from and many began pulling their children out of the schools and getting ready to arm themselves.

Some 3 years after the war of the lands what happened? '

Students began to shift. Several hands went up.

" Ursula? "

" The land was divided among all things of magic?" The red headed girl pushed her glasses up on her nose.

" Excellent yes there are places no wizard or witch are allowed to go for to go there would result in death or in breaking of unbreakable treaties. 10 points to Hufflepuff! How many towns were given over to those creatures that had a dominion at night in the East lands?"

Another student this one a boy waved his hand eagerly.

" Yes Charlie?"

" Six towns and one school in the mountains," The boy said.

" Excellent 10 points to Griffyndor...now what are some of those we call night walkers that inhabit those towns? "

Everyone shuffled and glanced at their books.

The teacher sighed leaning her arm against a stack of books on her desk. She was a tall thin woman but she spoke with such forcefulness that she had literally commanded any room she was in. " Shape shifters werewolves being the most deadly, Nosferatu , small trolls such as orcs, apparitions that are not ghosts, Elder elves and forest elves which are very different then house elves, and last but not least demons or negative forces that take a humanish appearance."

The bell began to ring and the kids began to put their things together to go to their next class. The young boy Charlie stepped up to the teacher who raised her brows at him.

" Mrs. Abba I read somewhere that some people actually go visit these towns and like make treaties and stuff. Is that true? "

The instructors eyes narrowed. " What on earth would you want with information like that Charlie?"

Charlie straightened his shoulders sightly " My dad was a Nosferatu hunter but my mom says he was saved by a werewolf named Fenrir Greyback. Do you know who he is? "

Abba gasped so hard she began coughing. Charlie quickly took advantage of her red faced gasping fit.

" I just thought if a teacher took me I could go talk to Mr. Greyback and find out what happened to my dad and why he never came home."

Abba finally got her breath back. She clapped her hands together sharply. " Now see here! You put this thought from your head this instant. Greyback should be rotting in Azkaban right this minute! He was a murderer and worse! Surely if you've read how truly horrible he is and the heinous deeds he did? "

Charles looked disappointed but nodded. " I just thought...my dad wrote to us about him cause he was there bounty hunting under the ministry name that if he saved my dad...maybe he's not as bad as everyone says? "

Abba shook her head. " Young man one good deed does not a lifetime of evil undo. I suggest you keep in contact with the ministry about your father. Shoo now you'll be late for your next class." She turned away shaking her head.

Charles nodded and hurried off. He tucked the book he had slipped off Instructor Abba's desk into his robes. He'd been staring at it all through class. It was titled ' The Hunters complete Guide to Shape shifting beings '

He had been waiting on the ministry. He was watching his mother cry herself to sleep night after night. He was tired of waiting. He had studied everything he could on Greyback and had come to one conclusion, the shape shifter was hungry for power or anything that could give it to him.

If he, Charlie, could find something that Greyback wanted the Lycan might set aside his blood thirst to tell Charlie where his dad was. He didn't have a plan from there but he was working on that.

Did he know about Fenrir Greyback? Of course he did. Fenrir Greyback was the monster that ate children.
