Chapter 2: Long Story Short

[I]-[B]-[S]

Summer 1993 - Italy

Blaise Zabini

[I]-[B]-[S]

For essentially an entire month, I’d been working out, studying, trying to improve my spell-work to the point I could do them wandlessly, and trying to create a spell to replicate the web-slinging that Miles and Peter did. The constant trial and error was worth it, too, as I was able to complete it in just over a week while still studying seve...

Yet another day, yet another murder attempt. Honestly, I was surprised they had yet to send a real Sith apprentice to deal with me, instead of just sending those they wanted to get rid of just for being weak. I had benefited from it immensely, though. Enough to purchase mastery in the yet to be created [Form VII], specifically the [Vaapad] variant, which was supposed to be...

Giovanni Zatara stood by the long oak table, sleeves rolled up, holding an ornate vase that faintly shimmered with runic light.  With a murmured word in reverse Italian, the object dissolved into a puff of golden smoke, reforming into a simple ceramic plate that he placed on the table.

Deep beneath Diagon Alley, far below the grand marble halls and chandeliers of Gringotts Bank, the doors to a meeting chamber carved from obsidian rock with enchanted torches that burned against the walls, closed. The light reflected the rows of gold and steel that decorated the table where the Goblin clans’ highest sat, and at the head of the table, the Goblin King slammed ...

Back in the Hokage’s office, the smell of ink and burning tobacco filled the room as Hiruzen sat heavily behind his desk. With a tired motion, he reached under his desk and applied Chakra to the privacy Fuinjutsu formula. Specifically, the one that covered sound, as the curtains were already covered. A faint ri...

I sat cross-legged on the hospital bed, controlling my breathing in and out in a slow and steady rhythm as I meditated.

Hiruzen Sarutobi, the Hokage and leader of the most powerful Hidden Village in the world, set his pipe aside as faint smoke curled in the air as he rose from his chair. His robes shifted heavily around him, doing a poor job of concealing his armour underneath, at least to those who knew what to look for. The crim...

Update: 28/09/2025

Hello There

Just an update.

Due to general life and university requirements, I won't be able to post the regular guaranteed chapter a week like I usually do. So, for now, there won’t be a ‘main’ fic until I have more free time to write. At least, until I've completed my assignments.

I won’t be dropping any fics and will still be posting, so don’t worry about me leaving a fic unfinished. I still have storylines to get through, after all.

Yep. Riddle was sentenced to the rest of his life in prison. No surprise there. Amelia made sure there was no question asked about the specific locations of his Horcruxes, wanting to have him questioned in private for that, in order to make sure his allies didn't move them.

She knew he wouldn't survive the night, so there was no worry.

Dumbledore sighed in his seat, disappointed. He had never thought he would feel any form of joy watching a former student of his be subjected to what was essentially torture. But he did some sort of joy. And worse, he was able to justify it.

As a Tomb Raider, I naturally chose camel travel as our mode of transportation.
