I'm back! I still own nothing. Do I really need to say this again?

Harry smiled as he reappeared with his new fighting force in the foyer of an absolutely massive castle. As the group looked around, Tonks came out of her shock first.
"Harry…where are we?"
Harry grinned at his friend and gently began to stroke Bellatrix's hair.
"I should let Pet tell you. Bella?"
Bellatrix nodded calmly.
"Welcome to Pendragon Castle, on the unplottable,untraceable, and previously lost Isle of Camelot. Home of the late King Arthur Pendragon and his Knights of the Round Table. Welcome to your new home."
Harry watched the look on his new knights faces as, one by one, they dropped to the ground, fully unconscious. Harry glanced to Bellatrix, who was muttering quietly to herself. Slowly, she levitated her new companions up the stairs. Quickly, she moved them each to rooms on the second floor. Laying them each down. By the time she had moved to lay her niece Nymphadora down, the young Auror was awake, but still in shock. Sighing, she gave her a harsh slap in the face.
"Sorry I did that niece, but you were in shock. By the way, you and your mates cost me a few galleons to my master."
Tonks shrugged before realizing what had been said.
"YOU WERE BETTING ON THIS?!"
Bellatrix nodded stiffling a laugh.
"Yes. Now. Sleep. The rest of masters guardians and fighters are being summoned in tomorrow. You must be ready. Your training and master's revelation will begin tomorrow. I will wake you early to take you to the armory. Master seems to have high hopes for you. I know you were a Hufflepuff. I know you'll work hard. Make master proud. I will help you when I can. Good luck niece."
Tonks was surprised, My aunt just offered to help me become a good knight. I really should do something….
Tonks spoke up, just before Bellatrix left.
"Aunty?"
Bellatrix paused for a moment.
"Yes?"
Tonks grinned as she closed her eyes to go to sleep.
"Call me Tonks. G'night Aunt Bella."
Bellatrix smiled a bit as she left.
"Good night Tonks."
Bellatrix mumbled as she moved to join her master in the master suite. Harry was waiting for her and she quickly sat behind him on the matress. Harry chuckled at his pet and wrapped his arm around her waist, pulling her into him, allowing her to rest on his shoulder.
"Come on pet. Time for sleep. It's a big day tomorrow. Now that Dumbles can't bother us, I can train."
Bellatrix leaned further into Harry's shoulder.
"Voldemort won't know what hit him. Then, we can come back here."
Harry stroked her hair for a while before slipping under the covers. Patting a spot in front of his pet to let her lay with him. The pair was quiet for a while as they settled down for the night, getting ready first the long day ahead.
Xxxxxxxxx Order of the Phoenix Headquarters Xxxxxxxxx
Albus Percival Wulfric Brian Dumbledore, Headmaster of Hogwarts, and Supreme Mugwump, was loosing his mind. After the last order meeting, he had lost all contact with Harry. For all of the tracking spells on the boy, it shouldn't have been possible. Harder still with part of the Weasley Clan, Remus Lupin, and Auror Tonks having vanished as well. Still pacing his office at Grimmauld, he wasn't surprised when Molly and Ginny Weasley stormed into the room, Hermione right behind them. As was part of her nature, Molly immediately started screeching like a banshee.
"Albus! You promised my Ginny money and lots of it! We just tried to get into Gringotts and we were locked out of Harry's vaults! Where is the boy anyway?!"
Hermione nodded firmly.
"You said I could have all of his books! I can't even get into the library here anymore!"
Dumbledore sighed,his plans were steadily crumbling around him.
"Harry,Ron, Bill, Charlie, Fred, George, Remus, and Nymphadora have all disappeared without a trace from here in Grimmauld."
Hermione gasped audibly before realizing.
"Bellatrix! She should know where he is!"
Dumbledore sighed, his age appearing in his features.
" has disappeared as well. For now, we wait. Harry can't last without us. He'll return to us on his own soon enough."
Molly nodded, content with his response.
"Alright Dumbledore. Just remember your promise."
Dumbledore grinned, his eyes sparkling.
"Of course Molly."
How can I forget with you harping at me all the time.
Dumbledore thought.
Xxxxxxxxx Pendragon Castle Xxxxxxxxx
The following morning, Bellatrix showered quickly and woke her master. After getting a brief shower himself, Harry changed quickly into a royal blue suit with the Pendragon coat of arms over the right breast. Going with the attire was the legendary sword Excalibur and the Crown of King Arthur. As he made his way downstairs, he was surprised to see his friends wearing nothing but jeans, converse, and t-shirts.
"Aw… guys, I feel overdressed."
Bellatrix sighed quietly.
"You are supposed to be majesty. You have an important meeting today with mostly pureblooded witches and wizards. You must look and act your best. The only reason your knights aren't dressed in armor yet is because they don't have any. That problem however, will be fixed within the day, along with the problem of them depending soully on their wands. As I will be getting them fitted with a few other weapons today to start their training. I do believe that is when you will tell them of their true importance?"
Harry nodded to his pet, and gently stroked her hair.
"I will tell them before we encounter Dumbledore again my pet. I trust you know when that is?"
Bellatrix nodded respectfully.
"I do your majesty. That is more then enough time to have them trained to standards. Is there anyone else I should pick up?"
Harry thought about it for a moment.
"Use a glamour and go fetch Neville. He will start training with everyone else. I have a meeting to prepare for."
I don't even really know what is coming out of my mouth.
Harry thought.
But it must be the Pendragon ring. Alright… time for a meeting.
