31st of July, Privet Drive nº4

Members of the Order of the Phoenix walked within the cloak of darkness that the night gave to reach their objective.

When they acquired their objective they returned to the dark skies that belonged to the moon at the time, returning to their haven at 12 Grimmauld Place.

August 14, 12 Grimmauld Place

The target seemed to act strange among his allies, as if he was expecting something.

Hidden from everyone, an owl with feathers as white as snow and with tips as black as shadows, flew over the night skies to reach the destination her master wanted her to go to deliver her message.

The owl, having an admirable amount of courage and determination, flew through the dark skies to the recipient of the letter she held in her claws, in a show not to disappoint her master.

August 20, 12 Grimmauld Place

The owl finally returned to its master with an answer for him, happy to serve his master with great quality.

The master read the answer and took a deep breath before exhaling.

Things were probably going to get complicated...

It appeared that the Lord of Light wanted the alliance of those of the Hidden Nations, and would use the Hogwarts students to make face-to-face contact with a protector of one of the Hidden Nations to persuade her to aid the magix's cause.

And the protector had her hands tied in a matter of refusing the visit of the young magix, who went for academic reasons while a certain member of the staff wanted to see him for reasons of military power.

September 1, Hogwarts.

The Great Hall of Hogwarts found all the students and teachers of the school gathered for the start of a new year for the ancient school, with all the members satisfied for the food and dessert, the headmaster rises in to make the annual announcements which are made at the beginning of the new year and at the end of it.

"I want to say welcome to the new faces and welcome back to those who have already been here. I stand before you to announce that Hagrid is on temporary leave from his duties at Hogwarts, in his place until he returns will be Professor Grumbleplank." A round of applause for the new Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher, Dolores Umbrigde! Let's remember that Quidditch tournaments will-"

"heh heh!" Dolores interrupted the director. "I want to thank you for the kind words and I'm so happy to see all these...happy faces looking at me..."

Umbridge continued her monologue about how the Ministry of Magic wanted to interfere with Hogwarts without directly admitting it.

"thank you for the illuminating words Professor Umbridge. Now to finish with any announcements today so you can go to your dorms... I want to announce that I got a unique opportunity for Hogwarts students, so it's still experimental..." Dumbledore , the Headmaster of Hogwarts, paused before continuing. "from the third year onwards, the top 5 students of each year will be able to participate in this experience.. a school trip to the Hidden Nations!"

Upon finishing the statement, the students began to talk amongst themselves about who they thought would go on the first Hogwarts school field trip, with the fifth year being the main topic of discussion. Many agreeing that Hermione Granger, Blaise Zabini, Susan Bones and Harry Potter would be chosen to go, the fifth student being the most discussed, some thinking Draco Malfoy would be chosen, others thinking it would be Padma Patil, and the rest thinking it would be Mizar Black.

Walking to the dormitories corresponding to their houses, all students went to sleep while the teachers waited for the Headmaster of Hogwarts to show up with the explanation of his dinner announcement, something that took many by surprise. Some were wondering why they weren't told this, others were curious how the headmaster managed to do such a thing, the rest were eager to use this little fact against Dumbledore.

The professors didn't have to wait long for Dumbledore to arrive, as soon after he arrived he sat down in his chair in his workshop and looked at all the adults gathered there who were wanting to know just one thing.

How did you get a school trip to the hidden nations!?

"I see you have doubts about what I announced for the welcome feast?"

"Actually Albus! You know the hidden nations are a very dangerous place for all students, no one knows what the native people there are capable of." said Minerva in exasperation.

"hem hem! I wanted to know when the principal got permission to do such a thing. We also have to take into account that this small project can interfere with the students' studies." Dolores Umbrigde said as if she had found a golden egg.

"I assure you Minerva that in terms of security I have plans in place to ensure our safety. And Madame Umbrigde, don't worry, I've had everything sorted out at the Ministry for two years now." Dumbledore explains.

Minerva calmed down a bit when she heard that Albus already had the security of the students sorted out, while Dolores had the facial expression of a person who had eaten a lemon.

"Headmaster…I can't stop myself from wondering how you managed to do that." said Snape from the back of the room after watching how everyone was reacting.

"What do you mean Severus?"

The other professors were watching the conversation curiously, guessing where Severus was wanting to go and wanting to know the same thing too.

"To get access to go in the nations takes around 4 to 6 years, you got it in less than 3 years at least..."

"Ah... I see where you're going Severus, and I have to say that it was pure luck that I managed to meet someone from there"

Hearing this, many were more interested in who this person was, it wasn't every day you met someone from the nations on this side of the barrier.

"I see some are curious to know who this person is, right?" asked Dumbledore with an air of friendly mirth.

Seeing everyone nod in a positive way, he decided to play a little prank on the teachers that would ensure the safety of one of the students who were marked by the ministry.

"Dobby! can you come here for a second please?"

A popping sound was heard as a house-elf appeared in front of the headmaster's desk. "What does Master Dumbledore want from Dobby, sir?"

"Would you like to get a message to your master to use that little trick of his to get him here in my office as soon as possible?"

"yes sir! Dobby will do it right now!" Shortly after that the elf disappeared in a pop to who knows where, when moments later a swirl of leaves appeared in the same spot the elf had occupied seconds ago.

When the leaf swirl dispersed, in the midst of it was...
