AN; Enjoy the Chapter
Ch 15 The Room
Dumbledore aced around his office after what James and Lily told him. A white wolf creature and the rider was a headless man with sickles as weapons. From what they describe the creature was a spirit or something around that area.
"What are we going to do about that beast lurking in the Forbidden Forest?" Molly asked the headmaster. "If it decides to go further into the school grounds then the children will be in trouble."
Arthur agrees with his wife. "But what James and Lily describe it, that thing just stared at them before heading off into the forest."
"Whatever it is we must hunt it down! This beast is going to be a problem in the future." Moody stated as he thrust his cane on the floor.
"But spells won't work on it," Tonks added.
"Do you have any knowledge of that creature, Remus?" Arthur asked the former Defense Against the Dark Arts professor.
The werewolf shook his head. "No, I've read about every creature from books and this one is a one that I do not know, let alone from any myths either." He confesses.
"Then what? If the beast is in the forest and Ritsuka's car went inside then he might be in trouble." Sirius said worried for his godson.
Dumbledore sighs. "I wouldn't worry about him, from what Saber did to me I thinking Harry is going to be fine." He said.
"WHAT? Headmaster, you can't be serious, that bastard harmed you!" James shouts. "They are dangerous to be around!"
"What about Harry's representatives?" Lily asked,
James turns to his wife. "Them too. I don't know why but just looking at them I have this sense of respect and I don't like it."
Dumbledore thought about them as they radiate the same aura from that Rider woman but lesser. Then he got an idea "James, Lily, I want you two to go to Gringotts to find out more about Harry." He said. "If I'm correct then you should be able to gain access to his inheritance since you are still his family."
James and Lily slap their heads for not even think of doing that before. "I can't believe that I haven't thought of it before," James said.
"Yes, the inheritance should reveal the information about Harry," Lily added.
"Right, you do that while the rest of us think of what to do with this situation." The old man said as the Potters left the room.
Sirius looks at the old man in the eyes "So what about that creature?"
Dumbledore sighs "As of right now, there's no information about that thing. All we can do is hope that things won't come near the school." He admitted.
"I see,"
"I call this meeting of the Order to an end and continue later in the week." He said as the Order left the Headmaster's office. He then sighs as he slumps on his chair as he reaches for the bowl on his desk. He looks at it and sighs "I need to get more Lemmon Drops." He said to himself as he went out to the kitchen.
Unaware of it three figures soon materializes in the center of the room. Fawkes flaps his wings as he tries to alert someone of them. Danzo rushes over to the phoenix as she pets him to calm him down.
"Ssshh…It's alright, calm down," Danzo said as Fawkes calms down from the gentle touch of the android.
"Well this is a problem," Mochizuki said.
"Agree, we must inform master right away," Kotarou said the Assassins.
"So what's the plan?" the Shrine maiden asked the leader of the recon team.
Both Danzo and Kotarou looked at each other and nodded. "Both me and Danzo will stay here and keep tabs on the Order while you go to Reines-sama, Trimamu-san has a built-in communicator for contacting master for this exact situation." He said to the Shrine Maiden.
Mochizuki nodded "Understood," she said as the Assassins left the Headmaster's office and Danzo places Fawkes back on his perch.
Chaldean British Branch Outpost
Ritsuka went to his office to calm himself after what his mentor told him that he was going to be a judge for the Tournament representing the Chaldea Security Organization. He enters his office and sat down on his chair pulling out his laptop from his desk only to be surprised by a small brown plush bear.
"Orion?" Ritsuka asked the small bear.
"Hello, master." The fluffy thing greeted him.
"I'm guessing that you are in here to get away from Artemis?" he said to the plush.
He nodded as his master was correct " That goddess was strangling me too much, so when that Dead Apostle showed up I took the opportunity to get away amongst the chaos and hid here." He said as Ritsuka picked him up, placing him on his desk.
"Are you aware she is looking for you, Orion?" he asked the plushy
Orion sighs "Yes,"
"And are you going back to her?"
"Yes, but not right now."
Ritsuka chuckles as he pets the small bear. "DON'T PET ME!" Orion shouts as he made him laugh.
Ritsuka laughs as the small creature complains before the doors open. "Senpai, Mochizuki-san is contacting us." Mashu said walking in the office and saw Orion, "Ah, so you found Orion-san."
"Yes, he was inside my desk. Now what Mochizuki needs?" he asked as Mashu hands over her tablet as a miniature hologram of the Assassin appears.
-ZZZ- My lord, -ZZZ- the Shrine Maiden greets him.
"Mochizuki, what is it do you need?" he asked the Assassin.
-ZZZ- My lord, the Headmaster Dumbledore is trying to get more information about you through your inheritance from Gringotts. -ZZZ- She informs him.
"I see," he said as he ponders in his mind. Mashu is worried about him as she looks at the Assassin.
"Mochizuki-san is there anything else that Dumbledore will do?" she asked.
-ZZZ-No, as of right now only the parents of master are heading to Gringotts. The Order didn't make any moves yet. -ZZZ- She said to Mashu.
Ritsuka looked at the Assassin as he pets the plushy in his hand. "Mochizuki, I need you to go over to Gringotts's bank. I want information on what they are planning and can you pick up some gems for me?" He said to her.
-ZZZ- Yes my Lord. -ZZZ- she said as she signs off.
"Master, you think this was a wise decision?" Orion asked.
"I trust that Gringotts will handle them. I just want eyes to be there to witness what they are doing" Ritsuka admits.
"Ah,"
Mashu still looks worried and Ritsuka took note of it. He smiles at her "Don't worry Mashu, I won't let them have the better of me." He ensures her.
She nods as he gave her a reassuring smile. "If your okay with this Senpai,"
Gringotts Bank
James and Lily arrived at Gringotts Bank as they were greeted by the wizards coming in and out of the bank. They walk to the front desk where Ripclaw was writing on documents.
James walks up to the Goblin " Ripclaw, we want to see our Harry's inheritance." He asked the family manager.
Ripclaw looks at the Potters. "Of course Lord Potter we-"
"Lord Goblin, if I may take some of your time." A female voice called out to him.
James and Lily looked to see a girl with black and see-through clothes and an eye patch over her eye. Both were disgusted by how she looks in that attire and in public too. "Who are you? And why are you wearing such lude clothing?" Lily asked.
"I am Assassin of Paraíso, servant to Lord Fujimaru," she said.
"Assassin of what?" James asked.
"Lady Assassin a pleasure to meet you, I take it that Lord Fujimaru sent you?" Ripclaw asked.
"Yes Lord Goblin, my Lord wants to pick up a bag of jewels in his account." The Shine Maiden said.
"I see, let's discuss this in a private room." Ripclaw said, "You may join us, Lord and Lady Potter." He said as the Goblin leads to a private room.
He let the wizards and Assassin to get settled before leaving to get the inheritance copy. James and Lily stared at the Shrine Maiden as she closes her eyes.
James taps his foot on the floor as he stares at the Assassin. "So, tell me, Assassin of Para-something what is your gain here?" he asked.
"James!"
"Not now Lily," he said to his wife.
"As I said before, my lord requires jewels for something important," Mochizuki said. "And my title is Assassin of Paraíso."
"How did you meet my son?" James asked.
"I was an enemy of him once. After he defeated me and the one who controlled my actions, I was summoned shortly to aid him in achieving his goals and follow his ideals." She said to them.
"And what are his ideals and goals?" James asked.
"That is confidential only to his servants and staff," Mochizuki said ended it there.
"So what? You're just a blind follower then?" he insulted her.
Lily hit his shoulder for asking a rude question. James looks at her "What Lils? I'm just asking if she just a blind follower like the Dark Lord's Death Eaters."
"Don't compare my lord to that slimy bastard." The Shrine Maiden said griping her fist at the insult of her master. James and Lily look as she lost her composer "That bastard is nothing like my lord in the slightest! He is one of the kindest and selfless men I ever have seen! He treats us like we are people even some of us are weapons he still treats us like normal human beings!" she said with emotion and tears coming out of eyes.
"That's why, we, his servants are loyal to him and him only." She said calming down. "The curse title that I have now has a purpose for his goals."
James doesn't buy it at all. She's just making it for a show, this doesn't sound like his son. He is a secluded child who doesn't have any friends at all.
For Lily she can see the emotions from her words and the desire to serve her son is plain to see by anyone. Even though she has seen her son for a day he's more mysterious than before.
"I'm sorry for keep you all waiting," Ripclaw said as he came in with one parchment in his hands.
"Not at all, Sir Goblin," James said forgetting the scene that was unfolded.
"Now the first thing I would like to say that Lord Fujimaru has asked the King to have his inheritance in his private vault for no one but him could access it." He said to them.
"WHAT!?"
"And the second thing is seeing he's already an adult both in the Wizarding World and Muggle world you two no longer have any parental rights to him. This includes his inheritance and vaults." He said.
"WHAT!?"
James places his face on his hands as he is taking in the news. "So, what should we do about the inheritance?" he asked the manager.
He hands over the paper to Assassin and a bag of jewels. "Well, you can either ask him yourself or someone who has the authorization to his inheritance." He said,
Lily looked over to the Assassin of Paraíso as she signs the paper grabs the bag. "So anyone who has authorization? Assassin of Paraíso will you-"
"No, I do not have the authorization for his vaults or inheritance. Only the people in the chain of command has the authorization." She said as she walks out of the door.
James slams his fist on the armrest. "Damnit! This is all for nothing!" he said.
"I do apologize but this is a request from Lord Fujimaru that all information about him is confidential and only accessible to him," Ripclaw said as he left the family to their devices.
"What now? We don't have the rights to him anymore." Lily said.
James cursed under his breath until an idea crosses his mind "Maybe Dumbledore has a suggestion on what to do." James said to his wife as they left the room.
Mochizuki materialized in the hall "So they're going to the old man huh," she said as she walks out the bank.
Hogwarts
Ginny walks in the halls by herself going back to the Gryffindor dorms when she saw Reines and Ruler walking to a room. She follows them to the room they went into to find out what are they doing. She opens the door and saw piles of things inside.
"Ms. Weasly, what are you doing here?" Holmes asked behind her.
She jumps as she turns to see Reines and Ruler standing behind her. "I…Uh….I was just curious why would you want to go inside the Room of Requirements?" she asked.
"That's a secret, Ginny," Reines said as her eyes turned red, placing her hands on her face in pain. Holmes held her in his arms help her to be steady on her legs.
"Is she alright?" Ginny asked looking at the Rider as she went near her only to step away from the red eyes.
"Yes, she is. She is currently sensing powerful magical energy in this area." Holmes said.
"So, she's not a vampire?" Ginny asked.
"No, it's just an ability from the eyes we call mystic eyes in magus terms." He said, "Each one has a different ability for the user, for Ms. Archisorte if any power mysteries or in your terms magic is nearby her eyes react to it causing a red coloration on the pupils."
"I see, so something here is causing Reines's eyes to react." She asked.
"Yes,"
"Ruler, it's fine I can manage." She said standing up.
"If you're fine with it. Alright, let's find out what causes this." He said as they walk in further "Are you coming Ms. Weasley?" he asked.
"Why are you letting me into this?"
"Because you saw us, and this was supposed to be a covert mission but it's not anymore," Reines said to her. "So, are you coming or what?"
Ginny thought for a moment before nodding and quickly follow them. they walk around piles of things stake together like in a junkyard. Ginny looks at them as they look around the place. "So what are you exactly you guys are looking for?"
"Anything out of sort, we're following Reines to lead the way," Holmes said as they pass a boar statue.
"Anything out of sort…" Ginny ponders as Reines grips face as her eyes have an aura like a flame.
"Reines?" Ginny asked.
She points a wooden box on a table. "There," she said as Ruler walks to it and opens it.
"It's a diadem," he said as he used one of his magnifying glass to observe it. On the magnifying glass, the diadem has an anonymous green aura around it. "It's best we took this back to Chaldea for analysis."
"Agree," Reines said before Ginny interjects.
"Can't we just hand it over to the Headmaster?" she asked.
Both servants look at each other and sighs. "Ginny, personly we don't trust Dumbledore at all," Reines said.
"B-But why? He's technically Merlin of the modern-day!" she protests.
'Only if she knew,' Holmes thought. "Ms. Weasley, Albus Dumbledore has done something terrible to Fujimaru…" he went on explaining to her about how Dumbledore had taken Ritsuka's magical core away from a very young age.
The face on Ginny's face was filled with horror of what the Headmaster did to Ritsuka. "So you're telling me that Ritsuka's magical core was taken away from him when he was younger?" she asked for confirmation. They nodded as she sat down.
She chuckles a bit. "To think I admire that guy," she said to herself. She closes her eyes then turns to them "Reines, Ruler I want to help you guys. From what we did today I got the feeling that Ritsuka isn't here for the Tri-Wizard tournament." She said.
"I don't know why you are here, but I do want to hear it from Ritsuka in person." She said.
They look at each other and nodded. "Very well, let's us return," Holmes said. " Right now Fujimaru is busy planning for the first task and-" Holmes was interrupted as the boar statue starts to move. (Insert They are Magicians / Lord El-Melloi II Sei no Jikenbo Rail Zeppelin Grace Note)
"I see, can't have a room like this without security." Holmes said, "Ms. Weasley, we'll handle this." He said.
"B-But-"
"Just stay behind us Ginny," Reines said as she took out a tube of silver liquid. "Trimamu, defeat that statue." She pours the liquid on the floor as it morphs into the made.
"Yes," the golem said as her arms became hammers and lunches herself to the statue smashing it as it crumbles away.
"That was quick," Ginny said.
"No, This place is big so that means there should be more sentries arou-"Holmes moves away as another boar statue appears crashing into the pile.
The boar appeared undamaged as it was ready to charge. Holmes took his cane and jab it on its head. The cane hit a vital point making it crumble away. "We have to get out of here before more shows up." He said as they nodded in agreement.
Ginny took out her wand and cast a few defensive spells at them but it only just chip it. "I can't do any critical damage to them, all I know is defensive spells and attack spells are for fourth years!" she said as she cast another defensive spell.
"Just keep running, we aren't here to defeat them," Reines said as Trimamu created a shield causing the boars to shatter.
"Ms. Weasley just stays underneath Trimamu and continue casting defensive spells," Holmes said as he hits another statue away.
"Got it!" she said obeying what the Ruler said. Soon they saw the doorway as they ran.
"I see the exit!" Ginny cried out.
"Now all we need to-Oh for the love of Gaia," Holmes said as a giant statue walks in front of the door. The group stop and then dodge the fist from the giant statue and find cover.
"What now?" Ginny asked covering her head.
"Reines, can you handle him?" Holmes asked the Rider.
She nodded "Trimamu,"
"Yes," she said as she returns to her liquid form.
"Ginny, you're going to see why I am called Rider," she said as Trimamu started to morph into something.
"Volumen Hydragyrum, proceeding." The liquid said ass it morphs under Reines as it took a form of a horse.
Ginny was shocked to see the capability of the golem in action as they ran out where the giant statue attacks. Trimamu dodges each blow and jumps on the edges of each pile until she reaches the top of one of them. "Carefully examine this Supreme Code of the El-Melloi!" Reines cried out as Trimamu jumps on its shoulders and kicks its head with her hindlegs shattering once made contact.
Soon the who statue crumbles away and Trimamu landed on the ground gracefully. "Amazing," Ginny said impress of the feat.
"Now Ms. Weasley before more come," Holmes said.
"Right," she said as they bolted to the exit door. (End Song)
Once they escaped Ginny huffed from the excitement. "So this is what Charles, Ron, and Hermione experience." She said smiling "I want to do more."
Holmes and Reines laugh. "I believe that's enough excitement for today," Holmes said to her.
"Yeah, I think you're right Ruler." She said noticing how tired she was from running. She walks to her dorm seeing how late it's gotten "I will see you two later then," she waved as she left them.
"So what do you think," Holmes asked.
"I think she'll be also be involved in this as well." She said, "I have to admit those defensive spells are quite useful back there."
"Agree, I should get this to Fujimaru so he can send it to get Analyze." The Ruler said walking away from the Rider.
"Yeah, you do that." She replied going back to the dungeons.
