AN: wow that was the longest chapter to date, don't expect that a lot I normally don't write that long of chapters XD, but if you guys want to know what the village the two boys ended up in.. you have to read and check the AN at the end of the chapter!

Remember when it comes to armors I won't go into a lot of detail since in my authors profile (towards the bottom) I included a link to all of the armors, I will give the grade, what race and what the armor is called you all can go find it from there so you have a better idea.

Also I have posted a link of a very basic family tree in the authors profile since people have been have been getting confused about relations.

Chapter 24: we are in serious trouble

"Potter, why the hell do I have to wear this horrible outfit?" reaching under the long tunic of the Feriotic robe's he scratched his back like mad. "this fabric is horrible and scratches like hell."

"shh!" peeking out from behind a gothic pillar Harry frowned before moving back and collapsing onto the ground. He wore his armor, his dagger held in its holster on his hip, his wand in its own holster on his right thigh.

Closing his eyes he tried to take in the situation they were in.

So far what he knew, they were in the inner world and in a village that was almost pure dark elves. To keep from drawing attention to them Harry had trade some gold galleons for a young mystic robe, which is what Draco was currently bitching about. They were none grade robes since that was all he could wear, surprisingly even though he had bought them from a young dark elf female when Draco summoned them they had taken on the appearance of a male human mystic's robe.

So that what his dad meant that the armor charms were interchangeable. Shaking that thought from his head, Harry stood up and looked around.

The village was very dark except the center where they had discovered bellow the grate was a giant statue of a woman in a spiked battle helmet and she was surrounded by a small lake. The city was designed with solid black metal iron structures that made you feel like you were in some sort of horror movie. And all of this was made worse by the fact the city was located deep within a mountain and went down under ground.

/dad is going to kill me!/ that was an understatement, he knew his father was due back at the castle any time and when he found he was gone there would be hell to pay.

"So what are our options?" opening his eyes Harry looked over to Draco. Growling Draco pulled at the overly large collar on his robes. "think they could be any worse looking."

"Yes you could be in anything light elf heavy or light." Draco stopped pulling at his robe and shuttered, "I don't think I want to know.."'

"Trust me you don't." standing up Harry looked around trying to get a general idea of where everything was.

"I guess our first step would be to find a map and figure out where we are." Moving up beside him Draco shoved a hand under his tunic to scratch his chest. They had ditched their school robes in a back corner of the cave behind a lamp post, it had taken only a few minutes of yelling to get Draco to agree to changing into the armor.

"and where exactly are we supposed to find a map?" Harry resisted the urge to hex Draco into the next kingdom. He was starting to wear on his last nerve.

"Probably the item shop." If he was right in judging the armors of those that were in the upper section of the town that this was a low level training ground which supported his initial theory that this was actually the dark Elvin village, the birth place of his father. He froze as the realization dawned on him.

"That's it!" he turned to Draco and grabbed onto his arms, "this is the birthplace of darkness! My father is the god of darkness; this is the village he was born in!"

Draco's jaw dropped at this, "you're kidding?" Harry shook his head "no, this is the dark elvin village, darkness..light and dark."

This was too weird, and too much of a coincidence. "who did dobby say that box was from?" stepping out into the main village Zera shook his head. "he didn't, just someone we could trust," Though he was starting to have his doubts about that now. Dobby didn't have the best running record when trying to protect him.

"so, uh..Where is this item shop?" looking around Harry slumped, "I have no idea…" his father had never allowed him outside Rune he didn't even know where the village was. Walking out by the giant hand he looked around ignoring the looks from the dark elves as they passed by.

Looking at the few stores he saw one that had a small potion bottle above the door. "I would say that one is a safe bet."

Walking into the store they found it stocked with scrolls and potions of all sorts, several young dark elves were browsing the shelves. Draco following Harry smirked seeing how scantily clad the girls were and dark elves were not exactly known for their small assets. "nice eye candy" Harry rolled his eyes but found his eyes wandering towards the men. Dark elven males were not exactly lacking and their armor was just as revealing.

Pulling his eyes away he started to browse the scrolls, unfortunately they were all written in drow. He stayed away from the one's that he recognized as SOE scrolls with how they were sealed. Finding a very large scroll he pulled it out and untied the scroll. "hey Draco, I foun…" a large 'SMACK!' reached his ears, sighing he lowered his head before moving to a small table and unrolled the map.

"you're not a ladies' man here are you." Draco moved up to his holding a bright red cheek. "that girl hit hard!"

"yeah, dark elves are one of the harder hitters." He rolled his eyes looking over the map. "it's pretty obvious we are here." He pointed to the far west of the map, the area they were in was to the east blocked by towering mountains while to their west and north were sheer cliffs that dropped into the ocean, and there was only one road leading out of the dark elvin lands.

Fallowing it with his finger he looked at the few printed land marks against the western wall just outside the giant mountain that was the village was a strange eye symbol with a triangle drawn under it. Under the symbol was the name "Catacomb of dark omens."

"Let's stay away from that shall we." Draco said fallowing Harry's finger, fallowing it south the path went in between a giant swamp to their east "Swamp of screams" and a building to the west "School of dark arts." "who the hell thinks of these names?"

The path then split off into two directions, one heading west and then south, another heading east that split off towards the north east and south. The one heading south west led to the harbor town of Gludin, the one heading south east led to the kingdom down of Gludio.

"That's our ticket home..wait," his smile faded as a lesson from the summer came back to him. Gludio and one other southern kingdom was no longer friendly to Rune and her alliance. "what is it?"

"dad is the alliance leader, I thought if we could get to one of the castles we could contact dad. But there are two kingdoms down here in Aden that aren't friendly to Rune anymore." He pointed to Gludio on the map. "I know Gludio is one of them. But I don't remember the second one." He continued to look around the map, Elmore the continent Rune was located on wasn't on this map, they would have to see if they could find one that showed Elmore.

"What's the rush? This is a golden opportunity for us." He lowered his head and voice since they were getting looks from the others in the shop. "it's obvious what professor Pa'agrio is doing, he's getting us ready for something that involves the inner world this is the chance we need to get a leg up."

Harry really wanted to smack him, "the rush is that if my father finds me gone, death would be a holiday compared to his punishment." Draco rolled his eyes and took the map, "come on potter where is your sense of adventure? You sure as hell have no problem breaking rules at Hogwarts."

Alright he had him there, sighing Harry growled and took the map back from Draco. "if my father finds us, you kidnapped me." Moving from the store he unrolled the map again and looked down at it, his eyes fallowed the eastern path past the neutral zone that led to Gludio. The path split off and made a giant circle around a land just east of the mountains of the dark elven lands that was surrounded on all sides but the very south west by mountain. Up in the very top north east corner it read "Elven village."

"wait a second," moving out to the giant hand to see better he looked at the two lands. "light and dark..the separation."

"what are you mumbling about now?" Draco walked up behind him rubbing his stomach, he was hungry as hell since they had missed dinner. "the two villages, light and dark we can go to each and read up on each area…" his face fell though as he reached into pocket and felt they were completely empty. "I don't suppose you have any money on you?" shaking his head Draco pulled out the robe pockets showing they were empty. "I don't carry money on me during school, unless we are close to a hogesmead weekend."

Oh they were screwed..

"WHAT DO YOU MEAN HE'S GONE!" patch stood against the far wall staying well out of the line of fire, right now it was not a good idea to bring unwanted attention to yourself with how irate his father was.

"I felt his and Draco's aura vanish from the castle, it was sudden like they were transported right from their room."

Zera was pacing the room like a caged lion with a massive blood lust. "Patch!" patched jumped not expecting his father to get to him this quickly. "Where were you? You were supposed to be watching the boys."

Patch shifted guiltily on his feet, he might have been a battle hardened assassin but his father was the only man that could make him feel like a small child that just got his hand caught in the cookie jar. "bathroom..i figured for the few minutes I was gone they would be alright, they had been sitting there doing homework for the past 2 hours."

Growling Zera returned to his pacing, Severus watched from the couch though was watching the wear marks appearing in his nice carpet. /going to have to replace this carpet once this is done./

Hearing a crunch under his foot Zera stopped mid pace and looked down lifting his foot up slightly, under his foot was the remnants of a white box. Kneeling down he picked up the long box instantly a familiar magic reached his sense, this box contained a scroll of escape.

"no.."

His son was somewhere in Aden and he had no idea where..

AN: sorry this chapter is so short it didn't feel right to continue it on longer. For those of you that want to know what the dark elven village looks like go onto youtube and type in "Lineage 2 tour – dark elven village" should be posted by "thequestmakers" for a map of what Harry was looking at google "Lineage 2 map" and look for the giant one posted on lineage 2 pmfun. It's the biggest and best quality. The map aden and elmore are connected just above aden, for the story they are two separate lands.
