But first a note from the author: These are not my characters or my world. They all belong to J. K. Rowling, and are protected by copyrights, all I own are Jack Riggs & Max Wood, Oh and the idea for this story and Jack's Animagus Name, Form & Special Abilities.

Now a Introduction to Jack Riggs & Max Wood.


Max Wood: A History

Max Wood became best friends with Harry, Ron and Hermione in 1st year, on The Hogwarts Express, but was sorted into Slytherin, not many of the Slytherin's like her, because she decided to stay friends with Harry, Ron and Hermione, even though they are in Gryffindor, she has come along for a few adventure's and in Year 5, she went into The Department of Mysteries with Harry and the others, and saved Sirius Black before he could fall through the Veil, so Sirius Black did not die.


Jack Riggs: A History

Jack Riggs is an Australian wizard, His Parents are Martin & Lorna Riggs, known as the best Auror Team in The Australian Ministry of Magic, they are also the First and Second in Command of The Order of The Golden Dingo.

Now instead of going to The Australian School of Witchcraft & Wizardry like most Australian's, Martin & Lorna sent him to Hogwarts School of Witchcraft & Wizardry in The UK.

Jack became best friends with James Potter, Lily Evans, Sirius Black, Remus J. Lupin, Peter Pettigrew, Mark Weasley (Matt Weasley's father) and Jennifer Davis (Sirius's wife and Alexis Black's mother) in 1st year, on The Hogwarts Express and is a Marauder as well, along with Mark Weasley.

But unlike the other Marauder's, Jack and Mark did not want there names on The Marauder's Map, James, Sirius, Remus and Peter tried to find out why, but Jack and Mark never told them.

Now just like the other Marauder's, Jack did become an Animagius as well, Jack's Name & Form is Nightfire The Phoenix.

His Traits and Markings are: Gold eyes with Scarlet and Gold feathers and an all Scarlet tail.

At the time, He was the only Phoenix in existence who can Apparate and Disapparate any where in the world including Hogwarts, he can do this in either his Phoenix form or his Human form, He can talk telepathically and do any kind of wandless magic when in his Animagi form and his Human form, he also has healing powers.

After they finished Hogwarts, and James and Lily had Harry, just like Sirius, Remus, Peter and Mark, Jack told James and Lily, that if anything ever happened to them, he would watch over Harry, no matter what.

But when James and Lily were killed by Voldemort, Peter thought, Dead and Sirius sent to Azkaban, Jack left The UK, leaving Remus, Mark, Jennifer and everyone else he knew behind.

Jack went back to Australia, where he found that his Parents had retired; He then became The new Leader of The Order of The Golden Dingo, and with there help, he was able to watch over Harry, but without Harry knowing it.

Now, it's the summer between Harry's 5th and 6th year, it's time for Jack to come home and see Harry.
