Chapter six: The War
King Brian Potter sat in his office his head in his hands; he looked up at the window where a faint tapping could be heard. There he sees a pure black owl looking at him with its yellow eyes, a letter tied around its leg. He got up slowly, making his way over to the owl opening the window, the owl droped the letter on the floor and flyed off into the azure blue sky.
King Brian opened the letter and began to read the neatly printed letter, his stance becoming more determined by the second.
"Call the council" he commanded to the silence, soon twelve men in deep blue robes walked in and stationed them selfs' around the room including Dumbledore.
"What's wrong my King?" a portly man with sparkling brown eyes says from the front of the group.
"Well Mr. Davies I have just received a very interesting letter from no other than Riddle himself," the air in the room seemed to diminish with the tension that had formed. The king continued, "Most of you know of the prophecy of the three stones, well Tom seems to think that he can find them without being the chosen one and no doubt he will stop at nothing to find them, he says if we try to stop him then he will send his army of death to start a war." The king finished sadly slumping down into his chair.
Dumbledore stood up from the chair he was sitting in, his stance seemed to radiate power, un-demanded but gained anyway. "Your son and a Miss Evans have just visited me a few hours ago, she is the chosen one sir, and they are leaving tomorrow morning," Dumbledore said to the King. King Brian stood in shock at this news update.
"Call Mr. Black, Mr. Lupin, and Miss Figg, to me please," the king once again demanded to the air, ten silent minutes later the three called walked into the office a look of confusion on their young faces. They bowed to the king at once and waited for him to speak first.
"Welcome young ones, you are now going to be given a duty to your country do you except with all your honor?"
"We do," they said in unison
"I need you to go to James' room, there you will find him packing I need you to pressure him into telling you where he is going then demand to go with him, you will indeed go with him and Miss Evans, your minds will be cleared once you find out where James is going and why, you are excused."
The three left the conference room more confused then when they went in, but they did their jobs.

Lily was standing outside her door her foot tapping on her stone steps, her hands on her hips it was seven oh five and he was late. She had on a plain white blouse and a pair of her dad's old denim pants that she had tailored to fit her, they rode dangerously low on her hips, her hair was once again plated and hung down her back.
She rolled her eyes as she saw him approaching, strutting casually like he had not a care in the world, but her smirk turned into a frown when she saw who was behind him, behind him came a swaggering Sirius Black, Remus Lupin, and Arabella Figg.
As the four friends approached they could see the fire in Lily's eyes and the electricity around her seemed to spark. She pulled James aside yanking he arm, "What are they doing here?! She whispered harshly. James had the brains to look down in shame, "They forced me to tell, the know everything and they wouldn't let me leave if they didn't come." He said a slight smile tugging at his lips.
Lily looked over at the other three waiting expectantly for her approval. "Fine they can come but I'm not happy about it," Lily said spinning on her heal and stalking over to the other three, James smiling behind her.
Lily looked at the others in the group James, Sirius, and Remus were all wearing appropriate cloths; Denim pants, white or black shirts, and a tan leather vest. Arabella was a different story she was wearing a plain white dress her hair falling elegantly down her back, with a roll of her eyes Lily had changed Arabella's cloths. She now wore some tan slacks and a black blouse, her hair was tied up in a high bun on her head with a crimson ribbon with a few tendrils framing her face. Everyone was impressed with this bit of wand-less magic.
Sirius was deeply impressed and showed his appreciation when he grabbed Arabella by the waist crashing his lips upon hers kissing her deeply. Lily grinned, "Hem, hem" the couple broke off abruptly at Remus' interruption. The two had the decency to blush as the other three stared at them vaguely amused.
"anyway, we need to look for the stones as you all know," Lily started staring at her new comrades faces, " I think we should look for the Living Emerald first since it's supposedly in the forest," Lily said taking out the old parchment out of her pocket. "Then the Blood Ruby because the mountains are the next closest and last the Water Crystal in the Eastern Sea," Lily finished stuffing the parchment back into her jeans pocket.
The other four looked at her respectfully they knew she was the leader on this mission, they all nodded.
"Well to the heart of the forest shall we," Lily said picking up her sack and walking confidently into the forest.

Wind whipped at the black tresses upon Riddles face, the powerful black horse moved gracefully beneath him as he rode across the land of Hogwarts, he was going to find those stones but first he had an appointment with the king of Able.
