Hogwarts?

Grubbs POV


For the rest of the week Harry wondered who the Half-Blood Prince could be. Finally the day came when we had to go to Dumbledore for our meeting. I was really nervous. As we walked and walked we finally came to a gargoyle statue that was infront of a stone wall. "Well what now?" Darren asked. Harry shushed him with his hands. He then turned his attention back to the gargoyle.

"Acid Pops." Harry said. The gargoyle sprang to life and leapt aside as the wall behing it slid apart, revealing a stone spiraling staircase which we climbed up. We came to a door with a brass knocker attached to it. Harry knocked the door.

"Come in." Dumbledore's voice said from beyond the door.

"Good evening, sir." We all said.

"Good evening you three, please sit down." Dumbledore said kindly. "I have arranged for your detention with Snape to be next saturday, Harry."

"Right." Harry said as he looked around the room.

"I hope you three like field trips," Dumbledore said. "because that is exactly what we are going on." He signaled for us to go toward the fireplace. He picked up a fistful of ash in his hands and tossed it into the red hot fire. The effect was instant. The fire turned blue and was coming closer to us. Then I realized the fire wasn't getting closer - we were! I looked back and saw Dumbledore pushing us into the fire with him. "Carcery Vale!" Dumbledore shouted. We were wisked away in the blue flames.

We arrived in an open field. "Where's the fireplace we were supposed to come out of?" Harry asked Dumbledore.

"No need for fireplace. New invention of mine." Dumbledore answered joyfully. "You have to enter a fireplace for it to work, but afterward you don't have to end up in someone else's fireplace." As Dumbldoe said that I was looking around where we were. The most magnificent thing I saw was a mansion in front of us. Dervish's mansion!

"I knew you would find out." Dumbldore said with a smile.

"Why here?" I asked.

"The next place were going concerns your uncle, Grubbs." Dumbledore said. "Your guardian too, Darren" Puzzled, we walked into my uncle's mansion. "Derv!" I shouted.

"Grubbs! Why are you back now!? I'm in the kitchen!" Dervish's voice echoed from the kitchen. We entered the kitchen and saw Dervish cooking scrambled eggs. I grinned. Dervish caught my grin and said "Just a late night snack." He then noticed Dumbledore and Darren. "Why are you guys here again?"

"Please Dervish, it is in your best concerns to come with us." Dumbledore said. "It has to do with demons." Dervish instantly dropped the frying pan.

"Lets go." Dervish said, all buisness now.

"Good." Dumbledore said. "Now everyone put one hand on me." We did as he said and that instant we dissappeared. We ended up in a dome like room. There were thrones to the front of us. Only one seat was filled. It was an elderly looking man. He was very pale and had tons of wrinkles. The person that was talking to him was slim, also pale, and had a crop of orange hair. He was dressed in all red. When they heard the popping sound they looked toward us. The man in red had a long scar running down the side of his face. No offense to whoever he was, but he was pretty ugly.

"Mr.Crepsley!" Darren yelled in exclamation. He ran toward the man dressed in red and hugged him. "This is my mentor, Mr.Crepsley." Darren said to me. I think Mr.Crepsley already knows Harry and Dumbledore.

"What brings you here, Albus?" the old man said.

"It is something that concerns every human, vampire, disciple and wizard in the whole entire world, Paris." Dumbledore said in a somber tone. "Thankfully we have the chance to counteract this catastrophe."

"What kind of event could do that?" Paris said, lips trembling. "I shall call forth the other vampires. Larten go-"

"No." Dumbldore said, simply.

"What?!" Paris said crossly. "You have news of an event that could wipe out every race in existince and you don't want me to inform my people!"

"You must tell them after we have left." Dumbledore said." It will be better."

Paris looked mad as hell, but he finally calmed down. "Very well then. Tell me what you know of."

"I have uncovered a lost prophecy about these three young kids. It talks of a battle of great importance which must end in the death of many." Dumbledore said. "The main enemies of these three kids will join forces to create a true army of darkness. If they win they shall become the dictators of a new world. A world that will never see a hint or a sign of the pursuit of happiness. All hope will be gone. One of the dictators is the Lord of the Vampaneze." Darren, Mr.Crepsley, and Paris all gasped.

"The second will be Lord Loss." Dumbledore continued. This time Dervish and I gasped. Would I have to fight Lord Loss again? The thought was so horrible I couldn't even think about it.

"More important to Harry and I is the dictator Lord Voldemort." Dumbledore said. "Each dictator will have many soildiers fighting for them. The Lord of the Vampaneze will have armies of Vampaneze. Lord Loss will have legions of demons at his command. And Voldemort will have killer swarms of Death Eaters and everything magical."

"Those are impossible odds!" Harry, Darren, and I yelled at the same time.

"No they aren't." Dumbledore said to us. Then he raised his tone as he focused mainly on Mr.Crepsley, Paris, and Dervish. "No they aren't unless we have the full support of the vampires and disciples." Moments of silence.

"I'll make the calls." Dervish said, looking toward Dumbledore. "I'm with you."

"You have the support of my people." Paris said.

"Excellent." Dumbledore said, happily. "Oh I almost forgot. There is one more dictator, but I could not find out who he was. He is most obviously the most powerful out of all of them. I will send messengers to you Paris and I expect Dervish to stay here and help the vampires as you gear up your disciples.And we will be on the lookout for anything suspicious at Hogwarts, which is the most obvious place for them to make the first and last battles. This war will be brutal, but we have to make it through, for the sake of everyone."

With that Dumbledore grabbed Darren, Harry, and I. We dissappeared again.

A/N: YES!! I finally got to the point with the main plot! CHEERS!! Ok now you guys know they're facing a more serious threat now. Instead of it just being Voldemort to worry about there is now the Lord of the Vampaneze and Lord Loss! Also, there will be a secret villian that I shall introduce later on into the story!
