It was time for the trip to the Headquarters of the Dragon lords. Sirius, Tonks and Harry did research the next day and found a magical pub called the Captain's Wife where they would floo to then they would take a boat they hired across Swanbridge bay to an island nearby. The island has many wards designed to keep the muggles and wizards and witches away but it would work for Harry because the wards would recognize Lareth. Once inside Harry would key them to the wards to allow them in.

They flood to the Captain's wife and walked over to the docks. They found the boat they hired and went aboard. Sirius was steering while Tonks and Harry sat down on the outside couch relaxing. It was about 1 in the afternoon. Tonks had asked Madam Bones for a day off but wouldn't give the reason to which Madam Bones only just let her off but with a warning not to make a habit out of trying to take days off.

They reached the shore and it was found that Sirius and Tonks had the desire to leave so Harry told them to go out to sea about 100 meters or so while he went alone. The settlement was about three or so kilometers and he was warned by Lareth that there would be creatures and some even thought to be extinct because they kept to the island. Harry pulled out his wand and then cursed himself for forgetting to bring his firebolt. He walked on guard for about a 100 meters before he found himself surrounded by 30 centaurs with their bows and arrows pointed at him, one of them stepped forward and spoke. "Who are you and how are you here?" Harry drew up his courage and spoke in a confidant voice. "I am a dragonlord." He flashed his eyes gold towards the speaker. The others whispered to themselves until one of them said. "It's true, only a dragonlord could defy the wards." The one who spoke first who was probably the leader as everyone looked to him. "It's true, he must be. I apologize to you Dragonlord. My name is Ryon. "

"It's quite alright Ryon, I was just making my way to the old settlement." Harry said.

"Ah of course. You know there are many dangerous creatures here on the island and underneath."

"Underneath?" Harry asked.

"Oh yes and even in the water. In fact we shall accompany you to make sure your safe and I must ask where is your dragon, wouldn't he be able to keep you safe?"

"Ah yes he would but he's in his soul form at the moment." Harry said.

"Ah yes we have heard of that but weren't sure if it was true but none the less we shall protect you."

"Thank you."

"It is no problem. Let's move out!" They then formed a circle around Harry and they walked together meanwhile Harry was talking to Ryon.

"So what types of creatures are here?"

"Oh there are many here, both peaceful like Flobberworms, Horklumps, blowtruckles, clabberts, diriculs, unicorns, golden snidgets, fairy's, demiguise and many winged horses, not to mention the many animals here. But there are the more dangerous creatures like Erumpants, Occamy's, Graphorns and manticore." He said.

"Geez, there all out here, how do they live?"

"There has been no supervision for the creatures so they have been unchecked, they have actually all picked territories for themselves." He said.

"How do you know so much." Harry asked.

"The centaurs here have lived here since the dragonlords, we have documents that have been passed down."

"Fair enough." The path they took was the safest once but they would have to go through two dangerous territories. Erumpants and the Occamy's. Five minutes later they were in Erumpant territory and it was another five minutes that they spotted the first Erumpant to come in sight. Ryon whispered. "Do not attack, they will only attack you if provoked." The Erumpant looked like a rhino only larger. They slowly moved around it and continued on. Ryon then explain that we would be passing a place where Unicorns were most likely to be. They came across a waterfall which lead to a large lake and then to a stream where they saw two unicorns and a smaller one, probably a child of two larger ones. They then continued on to what would be the last dangerous territory after fifteen minutes they found their first Occamy, the only problem this time was that unlike the Erumpant it was aggressive to any who approached it. Fortunately it must of been smart to know it would never had won. Thirty centaurs and a wizard was most definitely a bigger threat. The Occamy looked to be plumed, two-legged serpentine-bodied creature with wings that looked to be fifteen feet. Ryon mentioned it was an adult. It then took off flying.

After another fifteen minutes later they came across a grass field of what looked to be a herd of two different types of winged horses. Ryon told Harry they were Abraxan's which were gigantic, white and incredibly powerful with wings and Granian's which were normal horse sized, winged and extremely fast. They were no trouble at all and let them pass. After another twenty minutes they found the settlement. There was a 20 foot wide old building molded into the ground which looked to go underground. After jumping over the fence and entered the building but when the centaurs were about to enter something stopped them like a type of shield.

"Hold on one second, I probably have to key you into the wards." Harry then proceeded to go further. He was in a tunnel which was cemented but clearly dirty and old. It actually worried him that it would be unstable so he got out his wand and waved it casting a spell "Tersus et innovare" The spell the tunnel clean and then repaired the cracks. Harry then continued, at the end of the tunnel he came across a large room. It was again very dirty and everything needed to be repaired so Harry used the same spell as before and repaired the room. On the left of him he saw a fireplace and many couches. On the right he saw many books stacked on shelves along with potions. He thought he would look into that later. But right in front of him was a large fireplace and after conferring with Lareth discovered it was the floo connected to the Headquarters, Harry asked if there was anything different about the floo to which Lareth said "Of course, we have our own network. Headquarters manages all the floo's set up."

Above the fireplace was a list cemented on the wall. There was only two names there:

Harry J Potter, 16, Dragonlord

Lareth, 153, Golden Dragon King

After asking Lareth how to key people in Harry proceeded to add Sirius and Tonks in. He put a hand on under Lareth's name and spoke "Nymphadora Tonks, 22" While picturing Tonks, 2 second later the list glowed in light and under Lareth's name there was now Tonks's. He then did the same with Sirius's name. Now it was time to get Tonks and Sirius here. "Accio Golden Dragon Book of Transportation." A book came flying from the shelf into Harry's hand. He walked over to one of the couches and read through it.

Golden Dragon: Transportation:

The dragonlords had many ways of transportation, first the obvious was flying their dragons...Private floo network which would...Here it is. By casting this spell and thinking of the desired place the dragonlord would then glow gold for a few seconds and appear where you imagined. Depending on experience, the more you practice the less you glow and less longer it takes. After experimentation it bypasses all non dragonlord defenses. The Incantation is "Me tolle" while thinking of the destination.

Harry concentrated cast the spell while thinking of the shore he was dropped off and was immediately engulfed in gold and reappeared at the shore. He saw the boat and tired again to get on the boat, he was then engulfed in gold and landed in the boat, he slipped and landed on the ground with two wands pointed at him.

"Hey it's me." Harry said.

"What the hell was that?" Sirius asked.

"That was teleporting, dragonlord style." Harry said grinning. They both helped Harry up and then drove the boat to the shore. After securing the boat he teleported both of them to the Settlement. Harry remembered the centaurs and keyed Ryon to the wards. He didn't know any of the others so he would have to add them in later unless he went back to the list, put his hand on the list and said Centaur herd while picturing the herd he saw when he was ambushed by them. The list glowed and under Ryon was: Centaur herd. He teleported to the doorway where the centaurs and asked if they could come in. After Ryon stepped through the others did as well and then he knew it worked.

After introducing Tonks and Sirius, they all got comfortable and started to talk.

"I was wondering and please feel free to say no. I was wondering if you could possibly help me round up the creatures and put them secured location, plenty wildlife, water,food and away from the other creatures?" Harry asked. "I'm planning on having this place made safe so no one is in danger and those who less peaceful are put away but still there, you know what I mean?" He added.

Ryon thought for moment. "I would like to discuss this with the elders of our herd and we will get back to you."

"It's no problem at all." It was time to go to headquarters. They said goodbye and Harry said they were welcome to the Settlement whenever they wanted. Harry then used the floo and entered the Headquarters. It was definitely a sight. The room was massive, he looked to his left to see an archway to another room, he then looked ahead of him to see a large 30 seat or so round table which reminded Harry of the Knights of the Round table. He then looked to his right to see another archway leading to another room. He would search the place when he got Sirius and Tonks keyed into the new wards. He turned around to see another list with both his and Lareth's names on it. He added Sirius's and Tonks's names in and went back to the Settlement and told them to come through. Once they were all in the Headquarters they looked around starting with the archway on the right. They went through to see a massive library, there starting from the left side of the wall was books, then there was a massive stand and bookshelf 5 meters away then another beside that and another and it kept going another 30 meters down until it reached the other wall. The room was 30m wide and in length.

They left the library and went into the other archway which lead to stairs and into a hallway. On the right was a door, they opened it to see a 10m sized room, double sized bed, fireplace and couch. They continued down the hall all the way there were doors which led to similar bedrooms as the first. They turned a corner and then on the left had the same rooms. In the middle of the hallway was an archway which led to another set of stairs. They walked up the stairs to see a moderate sized hall with a giant door at the end. They opened it to see the largest room they had ever seen. The bed was in the middle against the wall which looked to be a three sized bed. There was a fireplace that looked to be connected to the floo and then there were two glass doors on either side of the rooms which led to a balcony, one looking out to the ocean and remaining land and the other with the opposite view of the ocean but with more land. Upon further looking they saw that Headquarters was a actually a castle and they hadn't seen the first floor or the underground floors and caves.

Lareth said that there were many more creatures on this island then there were on the settlement. The room had more couches in it which looked very comfortable along with a table. On the table was a plant about 50cm tall on one stem was an apple, down below it was a banana, on the other side on the top was a pear and down the bottom more was another apple. Harry grabbed the pear and took a bite. It was the best tasting pear he ever had and before his very own eyes a pear suddenly grew from the same stem like it was before. The others picked different fruit and it happened again.

They decided to leave the room an go explore the rest of the castle. On their way down to the first floor they found a medical bay filled with medicines, potions, healing books, beds and a rooms for the healers. The first floor wasn't much except for staircases leading to different areas. They followed a staircase that led underground. They found it was the dungeons, it was only one corridor and it only had four rooms. One looked to be a potions lab, two were bedrooms and the final room had cells filled in them. Upon questioning Lareth informed them that it held prisoners that were dark wizards. They were fed properly, treated okay but their magic was suppressed. They went down one more staircase from there which led them to the caves. The caves went on and on, they could clearly see that dragons, they were looking around when they heard a splash. They looked to their right to see three pairs of eyes looking down on them.
