HAHA! I finally got a good night's sleep! Well... It was a good day's sleep. Anyway, sorry for the delay, and I don't know if I'm going to be putting in the politics I promised. We'll see... Anyway, on with the show..

Sky Dawn sat off to the side as Lilith spoke to the Recruits of the Order of Ferux.
"I understand that you are all tired and that you'd like to return to Earth.. But Albus has asked me to pass on his request that you look for something for us. It may take a few days, or it may take a week. If you're interested, please remain in your seats. This isn't mandatory, so those who would like to get back to Earth will go with Sky Dawn."
A murmur broke out and everyone stood and got out of their chairs, a large majority of the thirty recruits moving towards Sky Dawn. Those remaining returned to their seats, those being Ron, Fred and George Weasley, Hermione Granger, Lee Jordan, Oliver Wood, Cho Chang and Blaise Zabini.
The crowd with Sky Dawn left in the direction of The Bridge, some shouting out farewells to those remaining and a few flashing the remaining eight apologetic smiles.
"Actually more than I expected. Thank you for remaining. Now, straight to the point.. Time is quite important with this matter... What we are searching for is a Canis Dracis.. Before you interrupt, Fred.. We're looking for a unique Canis Dracis.. but we don't know what makes it unique, I'm sorry to say. So, you'll be going out in search of him, looking for anything that sets one Dracis apart from another by a long way. Sky has left these," she held up Muggle head sets, which the recruits had become accustomed to in their training, "with a special enchantment, which will last up to two weeks. It will allow you to understand what the Dracis are saying."
The group stared for a moment then started looking at each other, before standing and walking up to collect their communication head sets.
"How are we going to be travelling, Lilith?" Hermione asked, all of them had taken to dropping the 'Lady' title.
"Aah, yes. I'm sure you will all enjoy this. In return for this service, you will each be given the latest Racing Broom, also known as the Lightning Rod, to use in your search. You will all, of course, be able to keep them for private use."
Oliver, Ron, Fred, George and Cho's faces became huge grins. Ron was Keeper for the Chudley Cannons, Fred and George were Beaters for Falmouth Falcons, having earned themselves the titles of the "Foulmouth Falcons." Oliver was the Keeper for Puddlemere United while Cho was Reserve Seeker for the same team. These brooms would give them all that little extra on the quiddtch field. Lee was also the play-by-play announcer for the Wireless Witch Network for the League games, as well as the play-by-play reporter for the Daily Profit.
After a few more instructions, they set out in teams to search Atlantis for a single Canis Dracis. Ron and Hermione, Fred and George, Lee and Oliver, and Cho and Blaise were the pairings.

Some distance from Hogwarts, the new Shadow Master of the Seekers Academy sat at his desk within his office. The new Shadow Master appeared to be no more than twenty years of age, with a heavily muscled body. His face was hidden behind brown hair that fell over his face and half way down his chest, though two glowing blue orbs stared out from behind the hair (not unlike the eyes of the Fremen in Dune).
This man was talking to three similarly appearing men, though those had bleached blond hair. The four were talking in a strange hissing language (not parsaltongue. More of a cross between Gollum from LOTR movies and the Avatus from Earth: Final Conflict), "They're teaching our secrets?" asked the one behind the desk.
"We do not yet know. Our spy has told us that they are still simply learning the Animal Languages, but she has informed us that when they return from Atlantis, they will be training for weapons, multiple Animagus forms, wandless aswell as Elemental magics.. Amongst other subjects. We won't know until they have returned," the center most man informed his leader.
"They're training Elementals?" Shadow Master roared in question, "We will have to deal with that at another time.."
"Master.. I do not believe that your predecessor will break the Seeker's Oath. That's not to say his pupils won't be strong.. But against us? No, this new Order won't stand in our way," the left most blondie chuckled darkly.
"Blind fool! What chance does any Seeker stand against an enemy who can ally with nature? Where will a sword help you against one who can manipulate lightning? What harm can a throwing star cause against one who can create a tornado? Will a bow and arrow aide you against a foe who can call up an inferno? Find the one who will be teaching the would-be Elementals and eliminate them," the last order directed at the middle blond figure, who bowed and left the room, shuddering in fear as the leader said after him, "Do not fail me, Demitri."
"What should we do, Master?" the one on the right asked.
"Return to the Ministry, Jason. Dominic.. Return to Nacrissa and continue to try to convince the free Death Eaters that there is a new Dark Lord.. And try to bring me some new followers."
"Yes, Master," both men said, bowing together and walking out the door, closing it behind them.
Speaking again in English, the Shadow Master dead-panned, "Very foolish of you to be in here, Cousin.."
A tall man with red hair removed his Invisibility Charm, smirking at the Shadow Master, saying "Yes, I'm sorry. It won't happen again!" he said with a chuckle.
"This is not funny, Michael. What if they had discovered you and seen the likeness? We can't let anyone know that a Weasley is behind this... Not yet," he said with a glare, before his mouth curled up into a grin.

My first cliffie! *cackles* And introduced Villain. Let's see how many people jump to conclusions about his identity.
Luckily for you guys, I found out recently that WolfMoon lives pretty close to me.. So I'll probably update sooner out of fear of her wrath! *cowers*
If people are nice and I get lots of reviews, asking me to, I could try and find my microphone and make a sound clip of the language.. I can say a few things in it.. after all, I invented it.
I'll try to start making these longer now with the search, training and all that jazz!
