+KEEP+ Meeting Some Old Friends (Aurors,open)

[Seth Wright]

It had been awhile since the old wizard had been in the Shadow Lounge. Now he had come back to find the help he needed. He was looking for only six very special friends. If they were still alive, he knew they would come here. The old man wondered, 'What if they were mad about my leaving all those years ago?' He shook his head. As he was walking he nodded to the old man behind the counter. He went straight to a booth that he knew very well. They could see everything from this one booth. It was where they always sat when they came here. It was here that the old man cloaked in all black would sit and wait for the people that he hoped were still his friends. The old wizard remembered there had been seven of them back then. Six aurors that he could count on to watch his back as he watched theirs.


He hoped they understood why he had asked for the transfer to America. Sabrina, his wife had been pregnant and wanted to have the boy near her family. Her and the baby had died soon after the transfer. The old wizard decided to live though his work. His work had been all he had needed until he met William Andreas. The young Auror was good and reminded him of another Auror back in London. He started teaching young William everything he knew. Then things went bad, the American Ministry had started rounding up a small group of dark wizards. That was the end for the old wizard, he had to protect his new family. They had went into hiding. The man who wanted the Andreases had wiped out everyone else on that team. The dark wizard had taken out all but one small child and the old wizard.


It was for the child's sake that the wizard had decided it was time. Time for the old wizard to ask for help from some old and wise colleagues. The child was at the age to go to a wizard's school. The school that she was suppose to go to wasn't safe. It was time to change schools. He had heard about Hogswart's headmaster protecting his students. There would have to be certain promises made though. That was why he was here to ask his friends to protect a child they had never met.


The dark wizard that was after the child was named David Valentine. The old wizard had not been able to save the rest of the family. Valentine had gotten to each one, with Marcus Andreas being killed last night. The old wizard knew that to protect Marcus' sister Tia, he would need help. The man was going to do the one thing he had not done in a long time, trust others with the girl's safety.


The six Aurors that he was going to ask were the best. The old wizard should know because they had saved his hide a number of times. He had sent the owls now he would wait and see who showed up. The old wizard just wondered how many people would be glad to see that Seth Wright was back?
