Zeer woke as the sun rose, and he yawned and stretched. He shifted back into human form and got out of bed, letting his enchantments drop. Heading to the shower, he let himself relax under the warm spray until he felt wide awake. Changing into fresh school robes he grabbed his school bag and headed down to breakfast, or started to. A pillow thrown in his general direction stopped him, and he saw a semi conscious Remus (who was in full human form by some miracle) and a zombie-like Draco. "Morning all. ^_^"
Draco groaned and threw another pillow at Zeer. "God, you're a bloody morning person?" He turned and crashed back into the bed.
Remus murmured something muddled, but Zeer had years of experience interpreting Remus speak. "I'm going down for breakfast. See you there." Still in a pleasant mood, he made his way down the stairs and to the great hall. While most first years would get lost, Zeer just followed the wonderful sent of food. Finally arriving, he found he was the only student up. One of the professors was up as well. Zeer started eating as he pulled out a textbook. He had herbology in the morning, and charms after that. He was reviewing the text for herbology, when he felt like he was being watched. Looking up he saw the professors' eyes on him, then noticed something else. The professor was not human! Though what he was . . . Zeer was not known for distinguishing anything by scent alone (except for food) but Remus was good at that. Returning to is book he barely noticed as students came in to eat, chatting with their friends. Remus sat next to him, and Draco on the other side. Two large boys sat near Draco.
"Morning Zeer. This is Crabb and Goyel. Sort of like bodyguards." Zeer nodded to them absent mindedly, he was reading about the uses of some of the plants. Then there was the noise of hundreds of owls. "Ah! The post!" Zeer scanned the air for Azrael (who had been missing in the morning) or Headwig, but didn't see either.
Instead a black bird flew past, dropping a black orb into Zeer's lap. Then a soft rustle of feathers and he saw Headwig. He took the letter from her and she flew off. Placing the orb in his school bag, he opened the letter.
Two lines, two lines that made Zeer tense in fear.
Hunters in woods.
Arnou taken.
Remus looked up to see Zeer rush out the room, and followed after him, not noticing the stares others were giving them. Especially the curious look one blond Slytherin and one brown haired Ravenclaw were giving them.

Okay people. So over the last . . . however long since I update life has gone to hell. I have more chapters written up on my computer, but honestly haven't thought much on this with all the drama going on. I wasn't even going to do anything of it, thinking it would fade from everyone's minds but the fact people still favor it, review it and alert it . . . I feel I have to do something. So I'm going to. I will leave it up to you people, my fanbase I didn't even know I was capable of having.
Right now I have up to chapter 24 written up. I have notes, on a backup drive, but most of my thought on where I was going with some plots has vanished. I can upload the chapters, (with no guarantee with what will happen when I finish up these prewritten chapters) or I can restart this entire thing, starting with Apogee Prelude, and try to make it longer, more cohesive and hopefully (with support) will be able to finish this entire thing like I originally planned.
So, please leave your comments in your reviews, or feel free to email me. I'm open to any suggestions or encouragement. As I mentioned, I've been going through a quite rough spot which has been detrimental to my writing. While things haven't gotten much better I want to, at the least, reclaim my writing. And AP/CO seems an ideal place to start.
