Yo! Ten years of waiting, plus Final Fantasy 15, equals crappy chapter. Sorry. I'm not big on this one. Thank you to all readers so far!

The next few days were eerily quiet, and though most didn't say anything, no one forgot what had happened. Everyone waited for Dumbledore to say something-to explain, but he never did.

Confusion and suspicion only grew, and it was on the first of October when things finally came to a head.

Hogwarts had gathered for what everyone assumed was going to be a normal breakfast, before classes began for the day. No one had any reason to suspect the credibility of their Headmaster was about to be brought into question once again.

More owls than usual streamed into the Great Hall, drawing everyone's curious attention up to them. They flew down to their owners, or recipients of their mail, and the students and staff quickly found that all of them had been delivered the newest edition of the Daily Prophet, whether they had subscribed to the paper or not.

Needless to say, they were quite confused. But they only needed to glance at the title on the front page to know that this was going to be a very interesting read.

'Albus Dumbledore, Leader of the Light, or Dark Lord in Disguise?'

The next few minutes were filled with dozens of people choking on their food or drink, and younger children asking the older ones what was going on, which led to a lot of awkwardness.

Unable to believe it, everyone, almost as one, began to read the entire article in question, no one sure if they actually even wanted to know where this was going.

'Albus Percival Wulfric Brian Dumbledore, Order of Merlin, First Class, Grand Sorcerer, Chief Warlock, Supreme Mugwump, International Confed. of Wizards, defeater of the Dark Lord Grindelwald, and esteemed Headmaster of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.

We all know the name. We all know the titles. We all know the man. But do we really?

Compelling evidence has recently come to light proving Dumbledore may in fact be more sympathetic to the Dark than we have previously been led to believe.

It seems Dumbledore has a curious interest in the immoral and forbidden act of necromancy, and routinely performs these dark ceremonies in none other than the sacred halls of Hogwarts herself, in the very office he presides in (as pictured above).

One can only wonder what else a man so unhealthily obsessed with the dead might be capable of. Especially when he is already performing these acts within the same walls that hold so many innocent children throughout the year. How many of those students have entered that office immediately after one of these sessions, I wonder? Was I one of them? Were you? Were any of your children?

With necromancy being perhaps the darkest of all acts, it stands within reason to consider what other 'forbidden' acts the generally beloved Albus Dumbledore has been practising in secret.

With allegations of neglect towards cases of child abuse already lain against him, perhaps it is time for us all to take a better look at the man we expected to help lead us in the fight against the Dark Lord.

It is not yet known who exactly Dumbledore has been attempting to contact and resurrect, but the personal artifacts visible in the circle in the photograph above indicate it is certainly more than one person.

Do look forward to a follow up once more information has been found and confirmed.

Until next time, readers,

"What is even going on anymore!?" came a frustrated exclamation from Ravenclaw Table.

Not one single person had the answer to that.

"Can we actually even believe this?" questioned a Hufflepuff.

"The same person wrote about the child abuse neglect," a Gryffindor pointed out. "And it isn't Skeeter for once, so who knows?"

"This is a bit much if they're just trying to discredit him again," said an Eagle. "Last time all they said was he's crazy."

"But then what are they trying to accomplish?" asked a Badger.

"It's hard to say," sighed a Lion.

For the first time now, a Slytherin spoke. "They're trying to get you sheep to actually think for yourselves for once!"

Confused, contemplative silence fell. Even the professors didn't say a word. Everyone was focused on thinking about the article they had just read, wondering how much of it they could really believe. It was a difficult thing to consider, especially for those who had always looked up to the Headmaster, who conveniently wasn't present at the moment.

But...necromancy? Wasn't that a bit extreme? Whether or not it was real? And if it was, who the heck was he trying to bring back to life? ...How had all this been discovered in the first place!?

So lost in their own thoughts, no one noticed Harry Potter get to his feet and leave the Hall, a dangerous smirk on his face. Voldemort had used the 'thank you' perfectly. The teen couldn't have done it any better himself.

The information was out in the open now, but was still ambiguous enough to keep everyone doubtful and curious, and wanting to hear and learn more.

This was the second, very serious accusation against Dumbledore in just over a month. The populace now had to figure out whether or not they could still believe in the Leader of the Light. Was he going to keep his silence? Or was he finally going to answer their many questions and explain what was going on?

No one realized that their young Saviour was already beginning to change sides. Not even the teen himself.

"...Why does Ron have a husk of corn* under his pillow?"

It was hard to say whether the Dark or Light had it worse.

...I was watching Pokemon abridged while writing this. Couldn't resist. Looking forward to reviews! Laterz!
