Chapter 24.1- The Seadragon's Roar

‘We need names for these islands’, I thought to myself not for the first time as I struggled to relate to the others just where exactly I had come in contact with the Jordayne fleet.

“And you let them go? You couldn’t think that they were tricking you for a second?” Daemon scoffed from his position at the table. This had turned into a nightly council of we Dragonriders where we gave updates about anything interesting we experienced while on our patrols.

“Oh, I’m al...

Chapter 58.1- Doom Days

The round of sixteen ended with a duel for the ages. Fire versus transfiguration. The transifiguration master that had managed to beat is fellow in the previous round had been knocked our himself after being faced with one of those who I felt likely to meet me in the finals. The Chinese girl remained in the running as well, but considering how much difficulty she had had in her round of 32 match— she had easily had the closest match of those of us remaining— it was doubtful that she would...

XXXXXXXXXXX- NYMPHADORA TONKS

It was all she could do not to throw up as she walked into the house. All around her there were aurors, hit-wizards, and forensic specialists. It made the cramped quarters of the home the Boy-Who-Lived had grown up in all the more stifling. She chuckled into her mouth. To think she had believed like so many others that Harry Potter had grown up in a castle in Scotland built by the Founders close to Hogwarts, being taught by their ancient portraits, magic th...

He watched the new Lord of Driftmark fly away on his dragon with a sigh of relief. They’d almost been caught right there and then. Damn it, the boy had good instincts. The fact that they’d had enough wine within to make up the casks was just pure luck.

“How the hell did we even get so much wine?” he asked his brother. Icarus knew that he consumed a fair amount of wine, but surely not twenty casks worth in a single trip. They weren’t selling anythin...

He could see the walls of Iwagakure now, just over the horizon. The fact that he could meant that most of their remaining army could, and those men were revitalized by the sight. When he had pictured this siege, he had foreseen time spent at the wall, strategizing, planning, and then several meetings between the Raikage and whoever was interim-Tsuchikage as they discussed and negotiated the terms of Iwa’s surrender. Surely they would have known that the battle was unwinnabl...

Chapter 76.6- One Thousand Hands

There were four men around the Raikage. Dead men, he disregarded them as almost immediately. Above them was the true threat. There was some sort of chakra construct. It was explosive, and its movements indicated that it was controlling its flight. Some sort of bird made of the same explosive clay as the thing that had landed in their midst earlier? He chanced a glance upwards and to the left, confirming it.

Another clay construct, this one shaped like an elephant that got bigger and bi...

“From the East and the West we will attack. Two hundred ships— one hundred from each direction will cut the Velaryon fleet at its knees, smash it against the shore, and move to seize Bloodstone” Icarus had not expected the meeting to be between only him and three of the magisters. In hindsight, it probably did make sense. There was no point exposing him to what internal division undoubtedly existed between them. They were allies, yes, but showing that sort of weakness was a de...

XXXXXX- JEAN-PIERRE DELACOUR

He felt the urge to put his hands in his head and sigh again, but he knew the second he did that his worried wife would walk through the door. Veela could sense all sorts of things, and she was just waiting for the chance. He read through the report again. Japan had stopped. Nothing had happened, they’d just taken Nepal and stopped there. The ICW couldn’t come to a consensus on what to do about that, and now that we’re consolidating their wins.

Chapter 76.5- One Thousand Hands

“Yes, your body will not be enough for this. Powerful as you are, the Raikage would tear you apart in seconds. That is where your siblings come in. You see I consider all the bodies I control to be my children is some way. And you will help me get revenge for my first born once we add the Raikage to our small family” Batshit crazy, Jirachi amended, stealing the phrase from Iwabe-kun.

“Meet your brothers and sisters” The woman said, and Jirachi watched them come from the shadows...

Chapter 57.5- Doom Days

“That you would hide Harry Potter here with muggles who dared to abuse him is more than I would have expected from you. But why should I have expected differently? I have taken Potter’s revenge for him. And I warn you now, never again will old magical blood be made subjugated to the whims and caprices of muggle pigs. Quake in your boots, Dumbledore. Your end is nigh. The Dark Lord might be dead, but the dream of a better Britain lives on.” The voice spoke through her throat, getting lou...

Chapter 23.5- The Seadragon's Roar

“No walls?” He asked the question without asking.

“To symbolise that this town is a temporary one. Let our people not fear losing their independence overmuch” He replied.

“And the Dothraki?”

“We have come to an agreement with the Khalasars in this part of Essos” He said, and that was that. They’d paid a massive bribe then. Icarus was beginning to wonder just how much they were investing into this war and whether it was truly worth it. To him, war was nev...

Chapter 76.4- One Thousand Hands

“For Iwa. Do your duty, Jirachi” And then no matter how much she tried to struggle, there was nothing she could do to stop her hands being shoved towards the worms. The second she was close enough, they reared up, jumping into her palms as a second one jumped into her chest. The last thing she saw was her Sensei’s expression, resolute, and so sure in her rightness before all she knew was darkness.

Chapter 57.4- Doom Days

“And the spell for casting the Dark Mark? I assure you that even I have not been able to figure it out. I doubt any of the Dark Lord’s most loyal would have given the spell away to a copycat killer.” He countered, seeming to enjoy the debate more than anything else.

“I’ll grant you that point, Headmaster. More likely, this was done by someone in the Inner Circle that we failed to catch”

“But then the question becomes why did they wait so long to do so?”

“We are leaving the city?” He asked once they came upon the gates. He felt a twinge in his chest. It was quite possible that the Prince would have gotten the Triarchy to do his dirty work for him. There had obviously been correspondence between the parties— correspondence of which Icarus had no idea as to the content or character. Nothing more than what this man had told him, bad if this man intended to kill him, what was his incentive for honesty?

“Yes, the Coun...

Chapter 23.3- The Seadragon's Roar

“This one is named Xovario Luthren. I am a magister of Tyrosh sitting on the Grand Council of Magisters” The man that had joined hum in the carriage spoke out once they began moving. Icarus would have preferred they travelled in silence. Maybe even a younger verson of him would have just ignored the merchant altogether and kept to his thoughts but he knew the price of failure here.

“I am Icarus of House Jordayne, Lord of the Tor.” He said, giving his name and title. He held bac...

Chapter 57.3- Doom Days

“The Roman punishment for traitors?” She asked, as she began to see it.

“Yes, but one in particular. It is a depiction of the crucifixion of Christ from the Bible.”

“Oh” She realised. Her father might have been a muggleborn but with both his parents dead and him being an inly child, he never had much exposure to the muggle world these days. He spent all his time at work or at home, and being a wizard, he didn’t care much for his Parent’s christian beliefs.

“Sensei, what are these?” She asked in shock. Instead of the battlements or the armoury, they’d taken her to the musuem. Except that instead of the museum itself, she had been taken to a subterranean level that she had never seen before. It was almost definitely a secret of some sort. So secretive that she was almost certain she did not belong there. That point was driven hime as he sensei led her through the vault of artifacts. Quite a few of them caught her attention. She re...

Chapter 76.2- One Thousand Hands

“We wait five minutes and then I want those walls” The Raikage said before sitting down in the lotus position.

“He’s meditating? Here? Right in front of Iwa’s walls?”

“Takes balls of steel” Cee heard the gold and silver brothers whispering to each other and he almost facepalmed. Of course none of them were as sensitive to chakra as he was. If they were, they would be able to feel the Raikage taking in chakra from the very air around them, the ground beneath their...

Chapter 57.2- Doom Days

“Indeed. Your memory is as sharp as always, Alastor” The headmaster praised, bright smile on his face.

“Enough of the flattery, Dumbledore. Like you do not remember what you wore on that day, and what I did as well, and what socks you had on, and what muggle sweet you had for breakfast. Just tell the girl and let’s be on with it”

“In my defence, you did only wear those garish red robes at the time” Tonks actually came to a stop. Several of the aurors around them di...

Chapter 23.2- The Seadragon's Roar

It was a death sentence in all but name, after a decade of being the Prince’s most ardent and loyal supporter. Those who rule do not oft forget slights, it seemed. Which was an even scarier thought becuase what would happen when the Velaryons realised that he had lied and decided to take revenge for it. That dragon might not have been as large as the three that famously devastated Dorne near a century ago, but it was certainly enough to burn the Tor to the ground. Did he Carew that much abo...

“Are you certain this is the place, Lucius?” he heard his Lord’s sibilant voice hiss through the mask he had now taken to wearing and nodded. He was certain this was the place. Of course he was. He wasn’t a fool. And even if he had been a fool, he would still have had enough self-preservation instincts to know that information taken to the Dark Lord could not just be confirmed once. He had one of his remaining contacts on the Board of Governors get a copy of...

Chapter 22- The Seadragon's Roar (Patrol)

We banked left before we dived. I felt the air smash against my body, trying to toss me off the saddle, but I held on with only my legs to keep me in place. It was a good feeling despite the strain. The feeling of flying and being free while I did it. Mother would never have consented to a saddle being made for me without the customary chains, but I had not bolted them in years, much in the same way as I had never flown with a whip after the first time. While it was much too weak to actually ...

Chapter 22.6- The Seadragon's Roar

They were wise enough to drop anchors soon after. Destroying the ships would have taken very little effort from Igneel and I. We flew downwards again, once it was clear they would not be hostile. This was a risk, but one that we were going to take with some care. Just bring the ships out of hand didn’t sit well with me. For one, having the Stepstones become infamous for not letting people through could hurt us in the short term. There was no guarantee that we would even manage to gain the ...

“Arrange their bodies in a triangle” his Lord commanded, and he moved to do his Lord’s bidding. He knew that using magic in or around rituals was a terrible idea so he dragged the bodies of the two fat lards, insensate as they were from hours of his Lord’s attention. He had driven all three of the muggles mad and then some with his cruciatus. Lucius had expected that someone— whether from the ministry or even one of Dumbledore’s cronies would have interv...

“Maybe that would have been a good offer if it came from anyone else, but I have taken your measure, Koga-san. And I fin you wanting” I enjoyed the way his eyes twitched at me using his name. Uraume’s control over the anbu had borne fruit in the past few weeks. Enough fruit that I knew this man only had his interests in mind. Nothing, not Kusa, not the greater good, his only interest was his personal position and power.

In the time it took his expression to return to normal, I ha...

Chapter 75.5- One Thousand hands

Foolish, I thought to myself, as I ducked underneath an attempt to behead me from behind. The assailant, an Iwa jounin, to his credit managed to adapt quickly, moving backwards and attacking again. I wasn’t in sage mode so I couldn’t just catch the sword in my hands as I knew would be the cool thing to do. Sadly, I’d have to fight properly today.

He came again, blade clutched in both hands and attempting a straight stab. I danced to the side, filled my fingers with chakra and the...
