Dear readers,

I know I have kept you waiting for a long time with this fic, and I thought that it was time for an explanation. The fact of the matter is, I have lost interest in the Harry Potter series ever since I saw Return of the King in December 2003, and to answer your question, no I won't be continuing this story.

But if you want, I could reveal to you the plot of the story:

Sirius

Sirius is still alive, yet dead (but not undead). He lingers now in the spirit world which he was sent through by the veil in OotP. In the last few chapters, I planned on Harry entering the Department of Mysteries and freeing him with the Green Flame Torch, which is the weapon he got from the locked room.

Voldemort's Plan

Harry was to find out in the last few chapters that Voldemort was desperately searching for a weapon. However, it is not a typical weapon: Voldemort seeks a magical realm, but he cannot find it. Using the Department of Intelligence, along with his own sources, he finds the realm is located in Egypt: The Valley of the Gods. Harry and company follow him to the Valley but arrive too late. They narrowly escape death from Voldemort's hands, and Voldemort returns to his lair. However, Hermione figured that Voldemort wanted to become a god, but in the final chapter it was to be revealed that she was wrong. Voldemort wanted the godly powers to do something no one has ever done before: he wanted to bring Salazar Slytherin back from the dead.

Draco

In Hidden Circles, which was to be the tenth chapter, Harry would find a huge circle filled with four circles inside. This is how he would have teleported to Egypt. But to get it to work, four people are needed, which is what Dumbledore tells him. But when the trio realize what Voldemort is up to, they have no time to find anyone to fill the fourth circle, and go to it anyway, hoping to find some way to get it to work. Miraculously, it does. In the final chapter, we were to find out that Draco was with them, using an ability that the Malfoys have long possessed: Astral Transformation. Draco has been using it all year to keep tabs on Harry, and uses it to help them get to Voldemort.

Sorry I never got to finish this story, but I couldn't after I realized just how similar Harry Potter is to the Lord of the Rings.
