Harry Potter and the Forces of Darkness

Chapter 16: Clause of Mazoku

A/N: So I'm going to inject myself into the first few paragraphs as quickly as I can just so I can get this over with and mark as to what this was made for. Have to warn you that it might be a little weird at first but just try to keep an open mind. My self injected in the story "Daniel Alexander Bailey" (I always wanted that middle name) and how just powerful I am. It may take longer than usual but I'm planning to get more word length in my chapters though at the same time keep checking them reading through for and grammar mistakes.

While we're on the subject it will be in two years that he will attend Hogwarts (was muddling with the thoughts of him going back but decided that you all love the drama of Dumbledore, Weasley and Granger getting fucked up) he should be attending there in the next chapter. Working on constructing the storyline for that.

But for this chapter, I will include some bashing though it is none of the above ills let you wait for that surprise.

oOo

Daniel Alexander Bailey briskly skipped through an overly large white chamber with stone grey pillars aligned around a stupidly large book that would probably make a particular girl (rhymes with Stranger) cream her unmentionables. The book was propped open the scripture detailed in multiple dialects and languages changing every second to the next from basic English to French, German, Japanese, Russian and so on to even symbols and glyph's that were not lucky to be recorded all that had been swept in the winds of time. An eagle feather quill and ink bottle awaiting its writer.

"I think its rather sweet even if he's diving in rather raw," Daniel stated seemingly to only himself as he slowed his pace the closer he emerged to the book plucking a ballpoint pen from his elongated ebony coat testing its effective use with a couple of childish doodles on his backhand. "The fine young demon already has two future bombshells on each arm, freed his family from any further purgatory in a dimension and now can set his course of concerns to royally fucking He-Who-Has-No-Nose, revenge on a family of gingers, Dumblefuck and the rest of the Order of KFC. And the cheeky devil didn't even use lube."

Multiple voices that sounded like a million male, female and children entangled together echoed into Daniels earlobe. The voices were unable to be deciphered by any regular human too soft and distorted but Daniel could understand them just fine.

Daniel shrugged. "I know you despise my particular branch of vocabulary but it's not like you haven't heard it from others like Mercury, Cinder, Ro-"

The voices buzzed again angrily this time like a swarm of irritated wasps.

Daniel laughed leaning on a stone pillar "Right they were fairly pissed when I set fire to their pile of stolen Dust. Though it was a different trend to actually fight somebody this time instead of observing, christ knows on how long its been since I stopped holding back."

The 'voices' seeped in again this time softer a semblance to a cackle of laughter in humour sniffed in the air. Daniel dipped his head down to avoid the invisible figures from seeing the blown-up blush on his face.

"I-Its not like I liker that Neopolitan girl or anything .BAKA." Daniel ground out stomping his foot roughly into the pillar behind him the force of the strike was so powerful instead of being broken into splinters the pillar was obliterated from sight. Its only proof to once being her was a few specks of dust. The voices deadpanned at that already used to this sort of behaviour with their well-met companion might be the best of words to describe this man.

Daniel Alexander Bailey as he had gone to call himself with a human title was by far not one in normal terms by defying every law that was placed whether material or on the biblical scale. Daniel was what could be referred to as a Cosmos Wanderer; in simple terms, he could travel to different universes, alternate timelines and most of all served to be a form of chronicler in recording the transgressions of events set by the universe. Daniel usually was the mysterious figure that one could see only once in their lifetimes, the evil individual would be defeated and said person could spend their entire lives searching for him only for it to be in vain fuelling the darkness inside beyond the natural limit.

Daniel didn't know that much about what he was capable either and what the function of his life had meant when he was first created. he knew that he was old - so horribly, vividly and unbelievably old maybe older that God and Death existing before Adam and Eve, the Big bang which had awoken him from a long nap when the first universe had sprouted life giving birth to things like religion, deities, law and most importantly humans and the power of choice.

As generations passed Daniel had become rather bored being a nigh powerful being immortal decided to spend time travelling the newly created spit of rock called Earth when humans had decided to engineer farming, bowing to the cross of God (to others like Zeus and Odin) in the end he had also witnessed the Earths death finally decaying to join the picture of the bleak stars.

At least in this one universe, it had...

As it turned out a near-limitless number of universes existed some bad to worse others marvels to gaze at times attempting the human life through his never-changing human guise was moderately irritating to hold the homunculus he created never lasted long from the number of deaths he suffered and the types of thugs, bandit tribes and emperors that demanded his head because he was considered a demon. In the next universe over they would praise him for his demonic heritage and in the next he would find actual demons instead of humans. The documentation had quickly become a hobby for him though the only constant between all of them had been changing and progress.

Other than human beings other creatures had been known to stir into reality such as wizards, demons, angels, werewolves, vampires, undead zombies and so on all much more powerful than humans some wars were raged a few thousand times but Daniel had decided to simply observe as for him it didn't matter one way or another, he couldn't save everybody and if they died they died. He wasn't born a human so why should he feel like one.

Of all these extraordinary beings the one that had intrigued him the most was probably the young wizard (at least in this world now a demon) was Harry Potter now proclaimed to all as Luse Guizu. He always he the most entertaining timelines and alternate outcomes to the point the guy must be married to bad luck from the amount of trouble he seemed to find himself trapped in.

Back in the chamber, Daniel reached the Book of Ages, Daniel sighed a dramatic, lazy sigh slowly peeling a page away as he found a blank spot to scrawl his findings onto from meeting Harry/Luse creating his weapon called Gungnir and finally his families anti imprisonment ritual. With a flourish and a click of his fingers, the Book of Ages turned to close in on itself finally the last page fell flat the cover following suit.

The Cosmos Wanderer hummed a soft tune to himself as he usually did while making some notes in his notepad he materialised from nothing projecting with a free hand a few tiny balls of light which acted to elongate what appeared to be minuscule screens crowded around Daniel he took time to look at each screen before continuing his research the scripture was in indecisive text marred with strange glyphs and wonky looking markings like jibberish to others. As he wrote the screens played different versions of Harry Potter from each universe:

One Harry as the wielder of Zarathos power riding Sirius Black's motorbike as the current Bounty Hunter of Hell, Ghost rider...

A Harry Potter with a large black and red coat sprawled on his chest a naked Bayonetta on his chest in his office in London with his branch for the store called Devil May Cry...

Harry Potter aiding a woman called Aya Brea from an infection of Mitichondria monsters in the heart of New York City...

A female Harry called Holly Potter inheriting the powers of Shazam making her the Earths Mightiest Mortal combatting with Black Adam and Voldemort paired with her lovers Superman and Batman...

An eerie result of abuse from the Durselys had ripped out one of Harrys eyes and enlisted to be an apprentice of the deadliest Assasin in the DC Universe; Slade Wilson. Developing abilities he is seen fighting against the Teen Titans with a geomancer called Terra Markov and his stepsister Rose along with a evil Tamiranian girl and a bad luck witch...

And a final one showed a Harry Potter entangled in an unstable flux of magic from Quirrell/Voldemort sending him hurtling to the world Daniel had just visited from. The world of Remnant...

Despite all of the amazing powers that Daniel possessed even he did get rather lonely sometimes (he once conjured a gaggle of naked women for amusement one time but found they lacked the type of personality for any fun) so to tide his boredom he frequently made trips to these more entertaining realities engaging I the adrenaline rush either from playing a hero or even the role of the villain anything to keep him occupied.

He was by far a perfect being of course even he had drawbacks his sheer boredom made it to the top of his list. Like the one time that he had travelled through some muddy plains in the medieval period, he manipulated his own mental capacity and became mad falling into insanity though had gotten bored of being a raging psychopath and reverted into the sound state of mind after a few centuries. Another time he had made a self dare with himself he could spend a year trapped in a cage trapped underground within a conjured human homunculus, while he didn't die he most certainly aged making the captors (who were replaced every five years) believe he was the scorn of a demon. Seriously what was it with humans and their distaste of the demonic. In any case, he had shredded that form and pressed onwards wandering the cosmos once again. The most recent even he could foretell better was when he was captured by a clan of Vikings and burned at the stake as he went by the moniker of a wizard called Wendelin the Weird and with nothing better to do than let them capture me across the windy plains while they tried to murder me at least twenty times the elicited joy at the horrified expressions from his captors was thrilling until it reached the hundredth time the nirvana fading from his grasp once more.

He wasn't by any means a saviour of the world allowing previous versions of Harry Potter to die by either his own hands just fro his amusement or to see it all change differently.

He wasn't evil. He was the necessary evil.

oOo

Spots of light started to sour to life as Luse's eyes were greased open his body slightly sore from the heavy loss of magic he had sacrificed in the ritual to open the Eighth Door body loped on large king-sized bed wings spread out and arrow-like tail slinked just out the covers. Luse blinked to catch his bearings noticing he was in a room he wasn't familiar with Mage Sight allowed him to detect that the door leading out was heavily warded by it was inscribed by familiar eight sets of signatures only allowing the demons keyed to allow entry, Luse tried to get up but noticed something small under the covers holding him down.

Su and Jade appeared to be in a heavy trance of the dream world as they snuggled on his torso slightly nuzzling his sides to get more comfortable luckily the two were clothed Su must have shared some of the clothes he had bought her (orange t-shirt with grey shorts) Luse decided to let them sleep in a little more and with a free hand summoned a single Shadowkhan though he noticed his magic was greatly exhausted it took much more effort than he liked. Still, the Shadowkhan erected itself from the darkness to the floor as usual.

"Notify my father, uncles and aunts that I have awakened," Luse ordered in a whisper his voice rather scratchy from just being revived. "Tell them I am on my way to meet them."

The Shadowkhan leapt through a wall to relay the message while Luse created a hole of Nothingness under him to where he sunk downwards making the two girls fall to the floor as he erected just at the foot of the bed a second later carefully moving the covers over Jade and Su smiling softly as he departed from the room conjuring a robe to hide his modesty a little embarrassed being underdressed.

"Master" Pariah shrieked from guarding the door in the form of a mouse who clambered up to his robe leaping onto his left shoulder to lick his cheek. "We are all honoured to see you alive and well master. You've been out of it for two weeks now!"

"That long" Luse exclaimed shocked while softly petting Pariahs small body with a crooked finger, "Guess I'm not as invincible as I thought".

"Keeping a splinter of reality open might do that to anybody. Though I was hardly worried I've learnt you are too stubborn to die that easily" Pariah deadpanned.

Luse ignoring his cheeky familiar though welcoming the banter started to break down the stone hallway barefoot leaning on the walls for support. He had no idea where he was the place not familiar to him whatsoever but decided to ease it into the back of his mind for the time being, as he walked he gained upon a set of sturdy looking double doors. Before he could knock the doors were flung open leading to a large parlour with a roaring fire ahead illuminated by a fancy hanging chandelier of the eight figures in the room his father recognised by the fire's light making the silver hair glow standing closest to the fire back turned to him, on the other hand, the other seven were a mystery until the furious march of a women with lightning blue hair bolted to his side crushing him in a bear hug.

"YOU FOOLISH BOY YOU HAD US ALL WORRIED SICK FOR THE DAYS ON A HELLMOUTH" the women erupted her pretty face contorted in a snarl worse than an angry Veela a trickle of tears threatening to burst forth. Luse's eyes bulged out anime-style at the severe grip his wings started to crease from the pressure. God, he missed his semi invincibility.

A man lying flat on the sofa quickly arose from his lazy position and bolted over trying to wedge the women away from Luse.

"Take it easy Bai Tza the poor man just got back on his feet."

Luse squinted closer at the figures the faces were very similar until his eyes creaked wider the astral visions of Bai Tza and Hsi Wu entering his sight. Stepping back from the Water Demons affectionate death grip he looked at her and Hsi Wu admiring the twos taste wondering if maybe the human transformation was actually random or maybe they were allowed to modify the appearance by will; if the latter then all demons must be complete honey bombshells.

Bai Tza was a remarkably beautiful woman with snow pale skins in contrast to the hair that fell on her shoulders like tendrils, shapely legs with an hourglass-like posture. She wore a pair of black jeans with a dark blue jacket and the only one in the group (apart from Luse and Dai Gui) to be barefoot.

Hsi Wu was somewhat at the age of a mature sixteen years of age with three locks of brown hair sticking upwards (Luse guessed it was because his demon side had horns) his face was still impish looking with a maddening glint for trouble. He wore a green Chinese cloth shirt, brown cargo pants and burgundy sneakers.

Tchang Zu and Dai Gui were slouched nonchalantly on one of the two sofas opposite each other as though just waiting for him to wake up. Dai Gui was in so many words the definition of bulk. He easily over-towered the rest of the glamoured demons by at least a head his skin more tanned like than the others almost like Luse's was, defined well with his heavily built arms and noticeable torso including his uncovered legs. He wore brown cotton shorts and much like Bai Tza and Luse he was also barefoot much preferring to feel the texture under his toes for the first time in centuries instead of the rough gravel in the Netherworld. His face was ruggedly handsome copper-like hair and muddy brown eyes which were squinted into a neutral dark gaze. He looked somewhere into his mid-forties.

Like Dai Gui, Tchang Zu also looked to be in his prime age of forty though maybe a little younger. Blonde hair and blue eyes complimented his natural attribute to lightning and instead of wearing clothing like the rest Tchang Zu instead was covered head to toe in full armour though it was a lighter and silver complimented with gauntlets, shinguards, torso and stomach plating. Luse sweat dropped deciding to have a little chat with his Uncle into trying human garments and not to scare passersby's looking like something from feudal wars.

Xiao Fung looked like a typical rough necked thug with a spikey blown up hair and sporting a goatee with a hunched down back similar to a frog about to leap. Adorned in a purple vest with a lime green shirt, light blue pants and black hiking boots.

(A/N: It's my own description of the build like he conjured himself in the cartoon. Not the best like I said with description but I'm getting there)

Tso Lan had to be the most civilised of the group in taking a human glamour Dressed similar to Shendu he was dressed in a tailored coat with a sky blue shirt, matching slacks and black polished shoes. His poison purple hair was pulled into a pun though it still allowed a fair portion to trickle down the back of his neck from being so long sallow cheekbones and elf-like ears.

Po Kong human appearance was...extraordinarily different something to which Luse again couldn't tell if she had chosen to make this form herself or if the glamour was dependent on the individual demon. Instead of something overly large like her demon self had been she was instead very petite and nimble looking teen her purple hair woven into a bun now was pigtails on either side dyed onyx black at the emerald green at the tips. Here eyes were apple green much similar to Luse's old ones and her outfit consisted of a sort of Gothic black dress with blood red frills around the edges giving him the impression of meeting a child vampire. Maybe that was just as she preferred.

All nine were crowed in a slightly longer than needed hug of prise and huge scolding for his recklessness though it didn't budge the gleaming smiles. But christ his wings and back would suffer later from the constriction.

oOo

The manor they turned out to be in was explained to him as the family home of the legendary Godric Griffindor who according to the small tales grew up here at birth though instead chose to move his roots to the "wild moor" that would later be known as Godric's Hollow to be more proficient at swordsmanship owning his craft instead of magic. Over the years the town Crowns Court had become very low in terms of magical population the residents fifty years ago used to frolic the area however after the first wizarding war Voldemort had raided this area in search of the Sword of Griffindor though the blade was never found to be a possible Horcrux and in his rage, Voldemort slaughtered most of its residents pure-blood or otherwise.

Griffindor Manor still was useful Bai Tza and Po Kong filled him in that while he was unconscious Su would be able to use her Griffindor ring to transport them into the mansion bypassing the difficult wards set up and address her identity as the current Lady Griffindor. The wards accepted her as well as Luse and the other demons as guests and thus they had stayed here ever since.

After the dense emotions calmed down Luse and the other eight demons all grouped together seated in the dining rooms table that could host at the minimum twenty or so people making it an excellent meeting arrangement. Due to the mansions lack of maintenance over the years the furniture was heavily blanketed with dust and cobwebs and there was a distinct smell of clotted mothballs in the air though Xiao Fung and Bai Tza used air and water to cleanse the filth away easily dismissing the disturbance with a controlled tornado and a typhoon or water flushing any webs away the furniture instantly drying due to the charms placed by Godric himself. After comfortably seated the twelve discussed to list of topics to go over.

After finally freeing the demons Luse hadn't exactly set a plan in motion for himself or them besides training with Daolong Wong and the additional tutoring of Su, Jade and Tohru. It wasn't a cause for concern but he refused to keep his priorities too narrow minded.

As for the Demon Sorcerors, they were still plotting their actions to proceed with their revival to the Human World by an original plan for fresh domination of the human race. Dai Gui had started a heated argument about owning his or her territories which earned him a retort from Bai Tza to which ignited flares of rage from Xiao Fung, Tso Lan, Tchang Zu and Hsi Wu. Shendu just dug his eyes scrunched into his hands from the frustration of his bickering siblings while Po Kong just manicured her nails boots on the table ignoring the entire scenario.

"All desert terrains are my domain you should all know this" Dai Gui growled slamming his fist on the table making it grown from the strike. "Little to none of those accursed flowers and my haven of the earth."

"Be that as it may brother Dai your earth kingdom expanded in our last reign to the point it threatened to breach the domain of my underwater kingdom in Atlantis because you insisted on increasing the landmass. In case it didn't graze your rock head of yours nearly everything is earth enough, just tear down the flowers and be done with it." Bai Tza snarled viciously a few of her scales appearing as she sputtered out seawater the glamour threatening to break way.

Luse sighed staring at the entire bickering of his Aunts and Uncles (apart from Po Kong) strongly reminded him of the buzzard graybeards in court at the Ministry of Magic creating before destroying new laws and in the end resulting with nothing from when they started lasting for centuries.

Never again.

"ENOUGH" Luse bellowed out his voice amplified cracked one of the nearby windows to which he mutely repaired afterwards.

"All of you are acting more like bickering children rather than the proud demons you're supposed to be fabled as" Luse scolded secretly enjoying the thrill of taking over the insults this time. "Besides your all forgetting a crucial factor that played to your failure the last time."

"Being" Dai Gui supplied his voice grumbled at being lectured like a tyke.

Luse shrugged "You never worked together taking over the world simply dividing yourself individually. Just entertain the idea in your minds, the last time you tried the assault on the planet it was always separated so imagine the impact with all eight of you with the addition of me, my spouses, a dark chi wizard and a near four hundred pound sumo. And a boggart I guess"

Luse kept and failed to stop the shit-eating grin while Pariah as a cat hissed at him.

The others mused this for a while not planning on this course of action. It wasn't like demons to share though Luse's human instinct could be an aid to them instead of a crutch.

"And what about the humans' nephew," Hsi Wu asked.

Luses eyes narrowed in confusion. "What about them Uncle Wu"

Po Kong glanced at him with a sorrowful expression. "Before you came to us you did grow up in the Human World along with them sweetie. You knew that we would conquer over them as soon as we got out."

Luse nodded. "That I did Aunti Po I never forgot that. But I already tried to save the ungrateful morons that slandered my being not to mention the Dursleys aren't the only pigs in the world."

Speaking of which he couldn't quite remember what had happened to the Dursleys after the escape from the dimension. Most likely they are probably trapped in the netherworld the strange magics will keep them alive through constantly on the bring of deaths doorstep. He had no sympathy humanity or otherwise.

"And what of Tohru and Daolong Wong. They are human."Xiao Fung interjected doubtfully. "We trust Su completely and Jade even if she is a more recent addition with your word but these are factors that must be addressed.

Luse rebuked. "Daolong Wong is practically a demon in human flesh from the abyss of dark magic he delved into, and as for Tohru he can be much more than a measly human not just in his abilities but the depth of his loyalty is admirable. The enforcers fled with tails behind their legs that's the difference." He noticed that none of his uncles or aunts attempted to bring any other factors into the discussion so he assumed he won his point through.

"My son is right" Shendu announced before anybody else could interrupt specifically Dai Gui who nodded a silent apology to his nephew who smiled in acceptance. "We lost to the Eight Immortals because we bickered and separated ourselves our callous attitudes to pride are what struck us down when we should have formed under a single power. This time we do things differently."

"Are there any ideas on how we proceed next". Hsi Wu asked attentively.

"Perhaps a moniker to go by" Tchang Zu replied. "It would be wise to shroud ourselves into suspicion and mystery until either we know for certain our stay in this world is permanent this time around and the Eight Immortals have been dealt with."

Luse thought a name for them all might be appropriate something to stir both the Muggle and Magic World into unease and to delve Dumbledore into an even denser fog of hysteria than he's swimming into. Of the last war, the competition had been Dumbledores Order of the Pheonix, Voldemort and the merry band of Death Eaters and finally the corrupted cowards at the Ministry that weren't competent enough to tie their shoelaces. It would produce quite the bedlam when all three can't figure out the identity of the fourth contender or even better start attacking each other pointing fingers at who struck first. Also, he had not even considered that the Eight Immortals may still be lurking around the "immortal" phrase being an understatement or fact.

Now, what to name themselves?

"How about Devil Regalia" Hsi Wu enquired.

"Too distasteful" grunted Tso Lan

"Akuma" Hsi Wu attempted again.

"Too simple," Po Kong said shooting him down

"K.I.S.S" Hsi Wu exasperated once more

"I will strangle you with your own wings Hsi Wu" Bai Tza snarled shaking her head at her younger brothers recent obsession into mortal rock music contrary he rather enjoyed the tuneless sounds so long as a flute hasn't been added in the mix. Even if the path to the Netherworld was closed to them she didn't want to take any chances with Gourds anytime soon.

"I might have one" Luse proposed. "What about the Mazoku Tribe"

A gaggle of scaly eyebrows raised at that in much approval even making Dai Gui crack a small smile at the implications for the name. Mazoku was directed to Japanese mythology for supernatural beings mostly evil devils that possessed men to be powerful monsters or dark lords. It could be linked to titles such as "clan" and "family" indicating strong bonds among the members. But most of all since it was related to the supernatural the beings could be various to anything; giants, vampires, werewolves, fairies, pixies anything of powerful relevance.

"The Mazoku Tribe." Shendu considered testing the name on his tongue sharing his glee with the brothers and sisters soft giggling spread like wildfire among the table their ruby red eyes burned brightly in enclosing darkness a branch of clouds coated over the sun suffocating the light reigning down through the windows the eight pair of red ones accompanied with Luse's bright molten ones.

"I believe we can find an understanding with that"

oOo

A solid month passed by for the demon family Luse's strength steadily grew back to its peak condition as the jubilation of the demon's freedom slowly died away through the fresh air and dazzling sun above still broadened tiny secret smiles hidden behind masks of stability even the pureblood of Britain would be jealous. They had eventually come to the conclusion that global conquest wasn't to be rushed right away - no matter how enticing the dream was they respected their nephews choice to stay under the radar.

Luse made his way to the recovery room that he had awoken in previously carrying a silver tray of toast, bacon, eggs with a cup of green tea. Su had crossed his path after the meeting with the family and had proceeded to wallop him with the strongest slap she could muster the strike leaving a raw red mark from the major decrease to his strength and cried on his chest from how scared she had been for his life. He simply hugged the small girl back tenderly rubbing her back soothing her worried with a gentle mantra.

Su had brought him back to the room and gestured to Jade who was still asleep her recovery took a little more than Luse's would. Her Chi had been vigorously fighting with the darker side for a while now but Daolong Wong suspected that the dark would win his thesis completely unbiased but Jade had more of a connection to Dark prowess than she ever had for the Light but still, measurements had to be taken out. Luse scoured through some of the Black, Peverall and Le Fay vaults back in Gringotts and had managed to find a single necklace the pendant appearing to be a spherical orb was rumoured to be able to counteract and even absorb the negative feedback from users who were delved into Dark Magic.

At first, Luse wasn't completely sure that it might work as Magic and Chi were distinctly different from one another but decided to try it out just in case blasting the necklace with a strong Avada Kedavra. It seemed to fail at first until the beam swirled around the orb before the inky black inside the sphere was absorbed into it like water sucked into a drainpipe. Satisfied and with a promise that she would tell them of any nasty occurrences with it she kept it on at all times at least until she taught herself not to be addicted to the Dark.

"So they are gone then" Jade pointed out blackly fiddling with the sphere woven around her neck slowly eyes a little distant staring at the tray on her lap absently. "I killed them.

"Yes," Luse said stiffly not sure what to make of the situation but there was no point dancing around the truth."Word will have gotten around by now to Asia and your parents should be-"

"I don't care" Jade frostily replied fingers gripped on her green tea started to creep frost until the necklace took effect draining the gathering dark chi forcing the power to decrease. "It's not like I was anything special to them anyway Luse. I don't ever want to go back there again"

Luse cupped her other hand fiddling with the necklace chuckling. "Am I not a demon of my word my little gem. Safe in bed with a breakfast fit for a future queen, family human and demon and best of all the ability to chose your fate."

Jade smiled slightly thoughts still swirling through her mind about what she could still remember from the event back in the temple at Tibet trapping her "family" inches underground, collecting the Pan Ku Box, and then that rush of power with the red shower.

"I killed them" Jade repeated over and over each slower than the last. "How am I not feeling guilty about what I did"

"I would guess its the Dark Chi that you've developed," Su answered her voice ringing like a chime bell. "You see normally balanced chi gives you slight prowess between Light and Dark but since you are on borderline Neutral to Dark right now I would say that is balancing the regular human guilt anybody would feel. There isn't anything wrong with you Jade but more the matter of your power."

Luse and Jade blinked.

Su turned sheepish scratching her cheek. "I might have been researching some books in my spare time whenever Luse was collecting the Talismans. I'm such a nerd"

Luse smirked cupping Su's face to give her a full lip lock releasing her after a few seconds taking pleasure in the flustered bookworm. "I kinda like nerds."

After Su had calmed her nerves from the surprise kiss and pouted at Luse for embarrassing her the trio talked, laughed and explored ideas on what they should do next.

"With all the power we seem to have now taken over the world kinda sounds awesome," Jade said head resting on Luse's chest.

"Still we gotta factor in the points that others will try and stop us. British Ministry of magic as well as others, Voldemort, Dumbledore and wherever the Eight Immortals might be lurking around.

Something about that flickered in Luse's mind about the prospects of family. How much his demons family meant to him brought a few memories of Sirius - wait...

Luse all but flew out of the recovery ward the door torn from their hinges at the blunt force of Luse's strength as he assembled his family to perform their first new task in the human world. A second prison escape.

Jade and Su just stared at the outburst before just giggling at their future fiance's brashness before sinking their teeth into the delicious snacks.

(10 hours Later - Askaban)

Sirius Black lay heaped on the decaying mouldy slabs staring helplessly at his appearance in the broken remnants of a mirror one of the guards had tried to assault him with missing the lobe of his head by a few inches to which he had utilized the best of his power to for cutting his mangy dirty hair and staring mindlessly at his face once so full of life now hollow and sallow. The dementors would patrol every morning and night only but it was enough to serve as a reminder that they never tired of tormenting the inmate's cold flashes of his childhood living with ruthless pureblooded parents, the death of his brother and then finally switching to the news of his friend James death had almost broken him.

As time passed he had been imprisoned in this little hell pit for the last eight years the only things that the dementors (and the inmates cackles that boomed along the corridors) were the promised death of the betrayer Peter Pettigrew and to see his beloved godson at least once more. Remus Lupin had apparently either died or not cared for him any longer the man had been off the map most likely searching for jobs in the Muggle World, it was complex that Sirius didn't understand why the wandering werewolf had been all these years? Why hasn't he ever visited him? Does he know if Harry is OK?

The silence delved into the Grimm Animagus thoughts was cut as the chipped stone wall was blown outwards rocking the whole tower in quakes the inmates shrieking in terror Bellatrix Lestrange tried to jam her head through the railed bars to see what had conversed in her cousin's cell.

"What the hell is going on in there Black?" the demented dark wizard exclaimed cackling in giggles of laughter.

Sirius, however, was frozen in fear at the figure that stepped into his cell room garbed in hulking ebony armour and what looked like a spear clutched in his right hand. The crimson red visor for eyes scanned the room ignoring Sirius frozen state as he peered around his surroundings almost underwhelmed.

"So this is the infamous Askaban Wizarding prison." the figure spoke his voice rough and scratchy while incredibly deep Sirius with the little magic he had access to could detect that it was a modified version of the Sonorus Charm to change his vocal cords to be different making it impossible for somebody to identify him. But that was impossible! This room was warded to block magic and cut the inmates from using their cores (except for the use of ritual-based magic like an Animagus.) There's no way Muggle or Wizard that he could have broken through the wall with brute force!

The figure took the spear muttered something under his breath before the spear pierced was into the wall opposite to Sirius as indigo writing appeared edged into it like a flowing spider's web spindling words marred out like oozing blood with a symbol that looked like a creepy mask. Sirius wondered if this person might have been a Death Eater at first with the cloaked identity but...no - the look was too different not to mention that nobody under Voldemort's thumb had ever worn anything besides robes and silver masks the look was way too Muggle medevil perhaps but nobody Voldemort related.

The mask now drawn on the wall was very creepy the mask had two gleaming yellow eyes, horns at the top with gnarled looking teeth raised in a grim smile. The first insignia of the Mazoku Tribe

"You're probably thinking right now," the armoured stranger said as he trailed an armoured gauntlet over the bars igniting a sickly green glow igniting itself to prevent the use of magic. "Who the hell is this guy that just stormed into the biggest jailhouse in Britain? What does he want with me? And why is he wearing armour from the dark age era?

Sirius could do nothing but dumbly nod.

"Unfortunately your answers are gonna have to wait until I can break you out of your false imprisonment." the ironclad saviour stated without a moments notice he hurled Sirius over his shoulder the near skin and bones of his condition made it a little too easy he threw the Animagus over the ledge onto the back of a large Hippogriff that scowled at the rough landing as it made sure that its rider was seated before unlatching itself from the side of Askabans stony walls taking flight while its master glided on the winds increasing the slacked jaw of Sirius from both leaving the spit of rock and rescued by the human/bat creature in eerie-looking armour flying just beside them. The only sound was Sirius whoops of enormous joy and the snarling screams of envy from the other inmates left behind including Bellatrix who cursed Sirius with all her malignancy she could muster.

"I do hope I don't gain a habit of this. Being a jail-breaker isn't easy you know."

Of course, if they were to get away now then the escape was far too easy plus they hadn't been the sneakiest of individuals. A massive horde of Dementors glided at neck-breaking speeds towards them much faster than any Hippogriff could fly, the air became distilled and cold demolishing Sirius building warmth of fresh air after so long. No. He couldn't go back there not again.

"EXPECTO PATRONUM" the armoured knight exclaimed at once the creature bursting forth a massive ethereal blast shoots forth from the spear propelling a hundred dementors away all screaming in pain a few that had been a few metres away smouldering wisps of darkness. Luse was honestly surprised that it wasn't a stag anymore the blast was formless just a mass of power yet he could have sworn he saw something in there. Something just hiding in the lined silver. The rest of the trip was silence.

oOo

After the return to Griffindor Manor, Luse still in armoured form hurled Sirius back over his shoulder ascending the steps of the manor and walking inside. Entering the living room he gently dropped Sirius on the ground to which he scrambled to a dust-coated sofa face shaking in a mixture of fear and trepidation.

"Alright who the hell are you?" Sirius bellowed itching closer and closer away from the ebony knight who just casually took a seat on another sofa opposite yellow decaying teeth gnarled to act hostile. "How did manage to break through the wall of a heavily warded anti-magic facility, tame a Hippogriff and disperse so many Dementors with a single charm? No wizard is capable of all that!"

The knight chuckled. "And whoever said that I was a mere wizard"

Purple light evaporated from the knight the armour peeling away dissolving into nothing until the figure of Luse Guizu was revealed wings and horns in full view the arrow tipped tail swishing side by side cheekily.

"I am Lord Luse, Lefay, Peverall, Potter, Black, Griffindor, Hufflepuff, Ravenclaw, Slytherin, Guizu. 8th Demon of the newly formed Mazoka Tribe, Male counterpart and Successor of Tarakudo and the once claimed Harry Potter Boy-Who Loved and later on Man who Conquered. It's nice to see you again Godfather.

It took a few trays of piping hot tea to simmer Sirius mortified expression almost making Luse laugh from the look and cry from seeing his godfather once more. When Sirius had died in his old life he was the final blockade stripped down for Dumbledore to try to manipulate and control him without any interference. Through it Luse had ordered Sirius not to interrupt him as he slowly explained everything to him from his old timeline to been left for death by Aurors, meeting Shendu and the other demons, searching for the Talismans and finally to releasing the rest of the demons as well as meeting Su and Jade as well as the much-needed acquaintance of the Greengrass sisters which he could do now he debt was cleared.

"I'm still finding it all so hard to believe" Sirius croaked out draining his cup of tea whole while scarfing down what must have been at least the tenth scone of the plate. "I mean I know it was kinda strange for your dad Ja - sorry mean Shendu to change so suddenly like that but I had no idea that he was possessed by a demon."

"Does it bother you?" Luse asked conjuring more food the teacups instantly refilling themselves while he silently cast a powerful warming charm on them. "Or about me being a demon?"

Sirius shook his head smile broadened. "To tell you the truth it was kind of a relief. I mean I loved and cared about your dad like a brother but even he went a little too far into the territory of a bully rather than playful pranking and not even on just Snivellous but any student with green robes."

Luse nodded. "Very true."

"So what happens now that I'm out of Askaban. Normally I must protect you not the other way around but you already have plenty of people that can do a much better job than this mangy mutt ever could."

Luse slowly cast his eyes down nodding. "In another lifetime I would have denied that but - yes it is true. However, while your protection is unnecessary that doesn't mean that your person isn't wanted in my life."

They both smiled for a while until other thoughts popped into Sirius head destroying the peaceful atmosphere.

"So," Sirius asked slowly eyes hardening. "Does this mean you're going for global conquest"

Luse nodded.

"Like Voldemort" Sirius exclaimed hotly.

"Are you going to try stop me." Luse snapped back generally insulted.

Silence.

"I am nothing like that soul shredded megalomaniac" Luse snarled eyes suddenly flaring brightly. "We demons would -"

"THAT'S MY POINT HARRY" Sirius boomed pushing the tray away staggering closer to his godson grabbing his shoulders tightly. "You are a wizard the son of James and Lilly why would you want to work with demons Dumbledore would never have allowed-"

"How many visitors did you see in your time at Askaban, Sirius?" Luse cut his godfather off calmly."And in case you cant see I am a demon."

"W-what" Sirius sputtered out confused

"I asked you how many visitors you received in your apparent eight years in prison. After all a well-loved Light Wizard such as yourself, especially from a Dark family, should have had plenty of friends and companions to try and have your release or at least offer moral support, or maybe they just came to ask you why you would commit such an atrocity. How many times did Remus, Dumbledore or anybody try to console you."

Sirius thought back to his juggled thoughts in his cell to the first time he had arrived certain that Remus or Dumbledore would clear the charges and have him freed in at least a week or two. But it never came he had waited for so long his hope decaying the more the dementors arrived the insidious frostbiting at his heels.

"None" Sirius managed to croak out.

"Exactly" Luse sneered. "The fact is Dumbledore the Headmaster of Hogwarts and the power of that title remains in the school is true - however he is also head of the Wizardgamot and Chief Warlock with a loud vote in the Ministry of Magic. Don't you think it's odd that you remained in that pisspot for eight years when it would have just taken him a single command for your release and how much longer do you think that you would have stayed there if I had not interfered? Anything wrong with that scenario?"

Sirius collapsed to the ground shaking his head in denial. "He wouldn't...he wouldn't"

Luse sighed pinching the bridge of his nose exasperated. He didn't want it to come to this but Sirius was way too stubborn in his loyalty to Dumbledore not to mention he seemed to neglect the fact he had just explained everything to him especially the upcoming plans for a global takeover it might be the Dementors influence or perhaps something spiked in the pig shits they called food. Time for Plan B.

"Galland" Luse summoned a pop resonating in the area an old house-elf appearing to Luse bowing to the Lord of the house. He was dressed in a burgundy red tailcoat the coat of arms of the Griffindor family sown on his left breast pocket.

"How can Galland be of assistance my lord" Galland spoke hunched on one knee.

"Take Sirius to the Ravenclaw manor in Italy along with a few other house-elves for its refurbishing. Make sure that he is well-fed and nurtured and put through a daily regime of potions and Muggle recovery routine for his health as well as Occulemency shields and potions to flush out any Compulsions. However make sure he has no access to the outside for the Floo network, Mirrors, Portkey and envoke the Apparition Ward along the outskirts of the land oh and watch out for his Animagus form of a black dog."

Sirius gasped. "Harry what are you doing"

Luse turned to Sirius the former wrapping the other in conjured chains wrapped around the torso, ankles and arms. "The fact is Sirius, Harry Potter died a long time ago the caring sweet, naive, easily manipulated Griffindor was betrayed by the people he tried to protect because they were too lazy to help themselves. It's Luse Guizu from now on and I'm going to take much elation in tearing this country from the inside out. Galland here along with a few others are going to take care of you and regain back some of your strength while you think about what I have told you when you are ready to join me ill be waiting."

Sirius's eyes narrowed not believing to what he was hearing from the small giddy baby that used to love rides on his dog back laughing.

"And if I don't agree to join you"

Luse gave his godfather a sideways look. "You will - otherwise ill just hogtie you in Rowena's mansion and keep you out of this upcoming war. I failed to protect you from Voldemort and Dumbledore the last time Sirius, I refuse to let that happen again."

Nodding to Galland who called for a few other elves to accompany them all heaved Sirius over them spindly little legs wobbling from the weight but managed to adjust themselves while carrying him to the nearest fireplace Luse taking a pinch of powder and throwing it in called "Rowena Mansion" igniting emerald flames.

For the time being, it should suffice for him, the Rowena Mansion has the same protective wards that the Griffindor manor has though with a foreign crafting and much more complicated code of magic the British could never hope to understand. It was outside the country meaning that the British Ministry had no power in foreign nations not to mention they would never guess that an eight-year inmate could make it to Italy, and Dumbledore would never guess Sirius to have any more sources other than James and Sirius as well as the entire Auror corps after his hide for the "betrayal".

"Ha-I mean Luse please don't do this you need Dumbledore" Sirius pleaded but Luse ignored him eyes lingering in the flames as the elves heaved and hoed until finally Sirius was thrown through the flames and out of sight his last words drowned into nothing, the elves jumping in after him.

"Remember, Galland no communications to the outside world of any kind but allow him access to the forest and broom collection if he asks. Just remember to filter a Binding charm to the area so he doesn't go too far and if he refuses the potions you have permission to force his compliance." Luse requested.

Galland bowed in understanding following his co-workers inside the forest green flames died after he disappeared.

Tears pooled from a tanned skin face only noticing that he had been crying when Su appeared dabbing them away as he stared in space broken out when she dabbed his face gently. He hated this method he needed to do. Dumbledore had forced Sirius to stay in Grimmauld Place for the entire summer without contacting him and now he was doing the exact same thing, still, this was only temporary and hopefully join him when the time was right.

But still...

"Are you ok Luse?" Su asked gently cutting through a tirade of thoughts enveloping him in a hug. She had stayed sitting on the stairs just outside of the door listening to the conversation hoping that Luse could drive his point across though it must have failed when the voices started to get raised and leaking of unfiltered magic heated the doors mahogany material.

Luse drove a hand through his hair unleashing a plume of tired air. "I'll be alright Su just as soon as the stubborn mutt gets his head out of his ass."

Su giggled. "I think that Po would scold you again for that use of language."

"English actually" Luse countered cheekily his spirits started to become elevated again. "Why are you gonna tell on me, my love"

"Maybe~" Su sang skipping to the double doors leading to the garden. "Unless you have me and Jade started in magic training of course. I still need to begin my fields in Dark and Illusion casting"

Luse dramatically shrugged his shoulders and raising his occulemency shields to retreat his sadness. "Well if that's all"

Luse followed after her knowing that tomorrow the Daily Prophet would soon be releasing the news to the population about his godfathers escape and the first appearance of the Mazoku

oOo

(The next morning)

SIRIUS BLACK ESCAPE FROM AZKABAN PRISON BY UNKNOWN PERPETRATOR

by Rita Skeeter

It sadly is the truth my fellow, loyal readers this humble reporter spreads no sugared facts. Sirius Black the betrayer of the well known Potter family, as well as his once best friend Peter Pettigrew, the murderer of thirteen muggles with a single curse and inner circle Death Eaters of He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named, was yesterday afternoon broken out of his cell by an unknown assailant. This incident has never been accomplished though Black has not escaped on his own.

From a witness report from some of the other inmates, it has been reported that the infiltrator was hidden in black-clad armour with a red visor protecting his identity remains a secret and even more shocking is the figure was seen clad aboard a Hippogriff tamed enough to wait for its master latching hanging on the side of Askabans walls. However the jailbreaker on arrived to retrieve Sirius Black and did not appear to be interested in rescuing the other inmates such as Lestrange, Greyback or Moon.

According to the brief interview that the head of the DMLE (who appears to be hiding something suspicious through a facade of agitation) the unknown man blasted his way through the cells stone walls, however, no magic residue was found not even a slither. There is proof that the man was a wizard however with the use of a Scripture Charm cast on a spared piece of wall with what looks like a demons face though not You Know Whos original skull and snake symbol a message carved into it:

"THE ONE KNOWN AS SIRIUS BLACK WAS WRONGLY CONVICTED MAN THROWN INTO THE DEPTHS OF THIS SPIT OF HELL WITHOUT A FREE TRIAL DUE TO THE BLUNDERING FOOLS AT THE MINISTRY ESPECIALLY THE INCOMPOTANT CORNELIUS FUDGE.

WE ARE A GROUP OF VERY DISPLEASED INDIVIDUALS WHO HAVE DECIDED THAT THE WIZARDS OF BRITAIN WILL BE DISCIPLINED BY A NEW FORCE.

WE ARE THE MAZOKU TRIBE. THE DARK THOUGHTS IN YOUR MIND, THE EVIL THAT SLEEPS IN YOUR SOUL IS BECAUSE OF WE MERELY EXIST. COWARDS AND FLOCKED SHEEP WANDER THE WORLD. NO MORE. YOU WILL NOTICE THE ATTACK UNLEASHED ON ONE ARNOLD BROWN IN NEW YORK CITY WAS NO MEAGER ACCIDENT FROM THE RESIDENT NO-MAJES WAS OUR FIRST BLOW. AND HENCE OUR SECOND HAS ALREADY BEEN CONCLUDED.

THE MAZOKU TRIBE ARE HERE TO STAY. AND HAVE MERLY STARTED."

Shocking my dear reader. Truly shocking, while it may not be the work of the Dark Lords followers fears linger it might be something just as terrifying.

Leading to the bizarre theory the armoured man burst through with physical force.

The ironclad man may be linked to You Know Who though no information has been known to him working alongside the former Dark Lord. I fear that this will give Sirius Black a second attempt on the life on the Boy Who Lived.

More information on Harry Potter turn to page 8

oOo

By the next morning, the Daily Prophet had been read from nearly every single British wizard and witch from all over the country to pure bloods to the muggle-borns each receiving shocks and rippling into fear not deciding if an insane powerful death eater back on the loose or a new perhaps stronger evil walked on Britains streets.

Luse rolled his eyes at Skeeters use of overdramatic flair the women could never just use make the real truth instead of just jumping to theories and how easily the public seemed to eat it up he dropped his copy of the newspaper on the small table at Florean Fortescue's staring out the window the wandering wizards striding up and down the stone pathway were pale-faced quivering in anticipation. The cowards, at least a thousand or so wizards in the country all afraid of one man on the loose who may not even be alive. He had also thought it be a good idea to turn the heat of suspicion to purposely write the name of the Muggles as "No-Majes" instead and turn Fudge's blustering persona towards the Ministry in America not to raise him as a key component though it was mostly for Dumbledore than the bumbling fat man in a top hat.

Honestly why the hell did he bother to protect them?

Luse turned his gaze to Su and Jade who were busy gnawing on a pair of Mega Merlin Sundaes (a bowl of five scoops of vanilla ice cream, sprinkled nuts, two strawberries, and sliced bananas) Jade managed to keep her face clean though Su was intensely slaughtering her ice cream in oblivious delight.

Finishing the ice cream Luse, Su and Jade travelled to Gringotts to create an account for Jade to which Luse would share some of his currency into her own vault so she would have a necessary start in the wizarding world. He wouldn't say it out loud but he was a little worried about his recent friend. Luse or as he was back in the old life Harry Potter cast a powerful Crucio on Bellatrix Lestrange and the intense rush of using dark magic for the first time nearly sent him over the edge, killing her own kin might have been underwhelmed by her motive for freedom but he could see it sleeping in her eyes the paralysing guilt and fear of losing control devouring away at her consciousness could not be allowed.

Luse, Su and Jade soon found themselves seated into Ragnok's office the goblins at the main entrance recognising the ninth demon automatically allowed him entrance as he had sent a message to the Goblin Leader beforehand of his arrival with a new Lady. Being seated Luse took a vial of blood from his coat pocket sliding it over to Ragnok who proceeded to pour the contents into the bowl carved with Celtic runes which bubble over starting to emit a blue fog.

"Who does that blood belong to, Luse," Jade asked curiously though a trace of anxiousness in her tone"

"Yours actually," Luse said casually.

Jade squinted. "You took my blood"

Luse shrugged. "Hey it's better asleep than having a thumb pricked"

Su and Jade swatted him on either arm both mockingly scowling. "Next time ask for permission batboy"

Luse sighed rolling his eyes surrendering to the puffed-up cheeks and cute angry due faces. "Fine"

The blood tets concluded its results and simmered itself back into the Celtic rune bowl soundlessly. Luse and Su turned to Jade wanting to inspect her reaction she appeared fine though more confused and puzzled at something.

"Whats an Umbrakinisis and an Animagus," Jade asked curiously.

Luse struck his forehead at his denseness. He had barely been filling Su in about the other sections of the Wizarding World and had barely come close to informing Jade about it he needed to remember these things.

"Well, an Animagus is a witch or wizard that can transform themselves into animals like a raven or tiger-"

"I can become an animal. Like a dragon" Jadees eyed gleamed at that excited feet bobbing on the ground furiously.

Luse chuckled. "Perhaps"

"And what about Umbrakinisis" Su enquired.

"That Lady Li would be the elemental power over shadows and darkness" Ragnok answered. "Though its a talent that is sided with the opinions narrow-minded fools have with Lord Guizus particular snake charming talent."

Luse sighed. "Ragnok you know you can just call me Luse right."

While he hadn't used Parseltongue yet he had the impression that with enough practise he could use it for other various applications like how he could mould his Nothingness attribute. Voldemort had taught himself to coat his vocal spells into Parseltounge so other wizards wouldn't be able to block against spells they wouldn't recognize and with his decendency, it would amplify the spell's power! Luse might have plotted to kill him for good but he had to acknowledge that he was incredibly talented.

"Of course Lord Guizu" Ragnok smugly replied pretending to shuffle paperwork completely ignoring the request. It wasn't in proper form for the king of the Goblin Nation to show favouritism...at least not around others.

Jade pushed the thought of her Animagus potential to the side for the moment and thought about her Umbrakinisis and wondered how she could form it. Normally she would have just asked Luse but remembered that he controlled Nothingness and might be completely different being the fact shadows were at least something.

Turning to a small corner to set with glass casings of weapons Jade attempted to bring the shadows closer to her or at least make them do something. Her outstretched hand appeared to glow dark purple appearing to respond to her command but the tentacle of shadow that plunged itself out the corner just weakly flopped around lazily before Jade quit the light disappearing and thee tentacle sliding back to where it came from.

Luse patted her shoulder. "Its fine Jade wee just need to research how it works that's all."

Ragnok grumbled. "I'm afraid that might not be possible my lord"

Luse sighed already dreading the answer. "Why"

"Because of the raids that were made by the past Ministers including the proclamation that the skill called Parseltongue most "Dark Arts" was turned to oblivion such as necromancy, portal creation and of course Umbrakinisis."

Luse growled. Seriously he had been landing on his arse body covered in soot just because they thought portal conjuration was evil. Though he could kinda guess the various holes in works that could happen portals that could open anywhere were different from normal Apparition as the user would be meddling with serious high-level space manipulation able to break through any wards. And not to mention Horcruxs were the only surface of Necromancy in Britain with manipualtion of souls.

That wasn't to say the cons outweighed the cons. Thank god he could use shadows to go where he wished.

"Very well Ragnok we will investigate the matter and see what we will find." Luse mused nodding his head to the Goblin king. "Maybe there is a family vault with some ideas on the matter."

"Actually my lord there is one person who did specialise in that branch of sorcery," Ragnok said his signature grinned ominously.

Luse, Su and Jade peered closer...

oOo

Luse, Su and Jade walked along the cobbled street together secretly smiling at the pale-faced wizards peering in all the dark nook and crannies of pitch-black alleyways tightening the grips on their children. Luse sighed, Sirius Black might be a fairly strong wizard but he wasn't a fool enough to try to attack others in broad daylight. Or perhaps they weren't afraid of the man that had supposedly killed thirteen Muggles with one strike and more of the armoured man that had broken in and out of the inescapable prison in Britain and sent a few hundred Dementors to flee.

"Do you believe that you can do that Luse?" Jade asked hesitantly after the conversation with Ragnok had been concluded. "Even with magic is that possible"

"Stranger things have happened than that little gem," Luse spoke mysteriously eyes blank in thought softly scratching his neck to where the pentagram of the raven nuzzled the contact warmly until a scene up ahead caught his attention. "Oh my"

Jade and Su turned to the situation only a few yards away. Two blonde-haired girls in what was surprisingly Muggle clothing were being harassed by a blonde-haired boy accompanied by two burly looking boys each looking just as stupid as the other one. Luse recognised them instantly as Draco Malfoy, Crabbe and Goyle it might have been the time travel, multiple training sessions with the demons and small murdering spree to muddle his mind but he didn't even feel a tint of annoyance, anger or loathing. In fact, he could plainly agree with himself that he no longer felt any animosity or nostalgia of the old days.

Luse detected too that even with Malfoy raging his sewer water mouth in public nobody seemed to attempt to help the little girls they moved forward at first though as soon as they identified Malfoy and his cronies they backed away quickly avoiding eye contact with the Greengrass sisters in fear of what the Malfoy senior would do to them physically or financially. Luse licked away the embers of hate he had for them deciding he would interfere if necessary.

"Greengrass" Malfoy sneered unaware of Luse's presence spittle spraying everywhere much to the distaste of the two sisters. "What the hell do you think you are doing frolicking around in public in that wretched Mudblood attire. Have you no shame? You are a pure-blood from an Ancient House and my future wife."

Daphne just raised an eyebrow. "Unlike the rest of the medieval providence of other houses Malfoy the Greengrass family are one of few that understand time always progress and the wise humbly move along the current. Firstly I and my sister were encouraged by our parents to keep an open mind in both Wizarding and Muggle world so our outlook on cultures never dwindled much like yours, and second I do not belong to you no more does the Earth compare the heavens."

Luse's heart fluttered at the elongated lecture hammered down on Malfoy like a sack of rocks the eldest sister roasting the boy just as badly as his father incinerated Valmont. He never talked to her but Daphne Greengrass was one of the most ruthless Slytherins to walk among Hogwarts for her intellectual mind and grimly cold exterior the pure-blood perfectly without flaw. Thinking about it now Malfoy stated time and time again he was a proud Slytherin and yet much like a disgraceful villain from a seventies cartoon constantly spilt his plots to his enemies.

Just like a Griffindor would.

Malfoys eyes twitched in rage saliva from the slight chuckles in the crowd unable to keep it contained rage boiled his pasty face mashed pink cheeks whipped out his wand quickly attempting to call out a spell Daphne and Astoria were unprepared being detached from their parents for a little so that they could explore on their own had not been equipped with their wands for the day. Daphne jumped forward preparing to protect her little sister from the spell eyes closed in preparation -

CRACK

The noise resonated from the scene a few wizards turned their heads to the situation Daphne and Astoria uneasily unlocked their eyelids open to see what the end result was trailing to the top of where Malfoys wand way shocked at what they saw. Malfoy lowered his wand to examine why his spell had not fired as he commanded to until he realised that half of the wood was blown off the edges charred to cinders leaking out dragon heartstring which slithered sickly to the floor.

"WHO DID THAT" Malfoy whirled around furiously eyes scanning the whole crowd each shuffling nervously from his sight. Crabbe and Goyle just copied Malfoy uncovering their sleeves attempting to look intimidating with bulky muscles. "WHAT IMBECILE OF A MAN WOULD DARE STRIKE THE HEIR OF THE MAL-"

"That would be me ferret boy" Luse interrupted cheerfully keeping a hand behind his back motioning for Su and Jade to keep back and away from any possible harm. Oh by the gods he was going to enjoy this way too much. Though he decided to be cautious already casting a modified version of the Notice-Me Not Charm around his persona the crowd looking at him would only be able to make out a walking blur unrecognisable his voice when talking was muffled however he could only make it affect the crowd apart from Su and Jade who already knew him and not his intended targets. He would just obliviate all but one of them anyway.

Malfoys face tinted to a very unhealthy shade of pink flushed from the audacity of the white-haired boy. How dare this pauper strike his own custom wand! He was Draco Malfoy and he was among the elite of the pure-blood lines how dare this ingrate embarrass him in front of his future wife.

"Who are you" Malfoy bellowed out furiously. "Do you have any idea how much that wand cost me you filthy degenerate."

Luse smiled serenely. "Haven't the foggiest I'm afraid. However, I would advise that you refrain from any harsh words to the two ladies over there pure-blood or not common manners in this world are free. And my name, bah, you have not earned the right to hear it."

Malfoy backed away slightly a little shaken by the words turning to Crabbe and Goyle he yelled out. "Don't just stand there you blithering oaths; tear him apart."

Goyle and Crabbe just blinked stupidly before faces marred nastily charging at Luse's hands trying to grab him from either side forgetting they were wizards. Malfoy looked smug figuring he could take him on magically at least he could damage him through brute force, the Greengrass sisters were evenly surprised that somebody in this flock of sheep even dared to oppose the son of Lucius while Jade and Su just smirked at the unfolding events both having seen Luse's "wrestling career".

Round two for the Blanc Diablo

Luse ducked under a punch from Goyle on the left while he effortlessly twirled evading a charge from Crabbe on the left while he jabbed a foot into the side of the boys kneecap the force snapping the leg like a toothpick who screamed bloody mary on the floor blood gushing everywhere a hint of bone visible the crowds cried out a few unleashing their lunch while leaning on the stone walls. Jade and Su just plugged their noses at that eyes still glued to the fight.

Luse smashed his fists together eyes leering on Goyle. "You know you can just walk away. At least you still have both your legs intact."

Goyles face paled eyes darting from the white-haired boy to his friend who started to go into unconsciousness from the pain before deciding to try hammer both fists furiously with all the strength he could muster. Luse grabbed them similar to what El Toro had attempted to do to him his own fists clenched Goyle's big meaty ones the pressure tightening every moment until-

Two dislocated arms later Goyle keeled to the ground next to his friend both arms pointing in grotesque ankles body shivering from what he was witnessing trying to crawl away from his attacker as much as his feet allowed. Luse slowly turned to Draco the face of the white hair, the golden-eyed boy whose face was splashed with a little of Crabbe's blood earlier broadened just serenely back.

No magic, no more muscle protection and piss poor at hand to hand combat Malfoy stumbled backwards until one of his expensive dragonhide boots got caught on a loose piece of cobble toppling him over face paling twice as ashen to its original state as Luse edged closer and closer the collection of urine leaking from the Malfoy scion got larger.

"Please" Malfoy pleaded to the now deserted crowd. "Please help me. He's a monster."

"He's a monster. Please, please somebody help me" Luse taunted repeating his words over and over it almost made him laugh. Luse turned to the Greengrass sisters luckily the eldest had covered the younger one's eyes when the shower of blood began but Daphne had witnessed the whole thing.

"Now then let's get something straight here Mr Malfoy," Luse said in a bored tone conjuring a white napkin while wiping blood from his cheek while checking with the free hand he was clean. "The Greengrass sisters are not yours, nor are they anybody else's property so this is what you are going to do. You're going to run back to your little daddy and yes you can get daddy's approval while you dribble your sorrows on his ankle like the little piss stain you are, you're going to describe to him who it was that attacked you and while you are doing that transfer him a little message to him while you're at it."

"W-whats the message" Malfoy sobbed out.

It was as if there was nothing that existed in the world apart from Malfoy and the infinite darkness of space just those two leering pairs of halcyon eyes. "Tell your pathetic master when he arises I do not plan on just killing him. I plan to replace him and use his corpse to pike my throne."

Malfoy not needing anymore incentive to stay scrambled away through the archway bursting through crowds until he was out of sight. Luse sighed turning to Crabbe and Goyle eliminating the recent memories from their mind (with unsurprising ease) and conjured a portal to send them to St Mungo's tossing them through for the Healers to find making Malfoys statement to the DMLE worthless and keep him under the radar until he decided otherwise. After all Amelia Bones had better things to do with her time than listen to the prattling lies of one pure-blood minor

Sighing Luse dusted his hands planting fists on his hips satisfied with his work turning to the sisters grinning from ear to ear.

"Are you two OK?" Luse asked sweetly. It was like dislocating two of the three and the third the crap himself hadn't even happened though it was still reeling.

Recovering from the shock a little Daphne nodded. "Yeah were OK we're both very grateful for your aid sir"

"Sir" Luse repeated thunder shocked. "Oh no. No no no that's way too formal for me even the whole Lord title can be a little far fetched sometimes but I couldn't live with that.

Daphne and Astoria glance at each other a little amazed. It was true that pure-blood families were fairly adept at magic though some were attributed to various Charms, Transfiguration and Dark Arts they haven't seemed to remember meeting this young boy. As per pure-blood tradition, it was normal for them to attend balls and meeting for the other pure-bloods to exchange information and daily business standards but so far the gold eyed snowy-haired figure was matching any description in her mind. Who was he?

"You say that you are a Lord correct," Daphne asked slowly trying not to be rude to the person who saved her and her sisters lives.

Luse nodded curtly. "That I am my lady"

"Would it be available to me to learn the name of the person who helped the Greengrass heiress today." Daphne enquired refinedly. "Am I worthy to learn it."

"You may only ask with good intentions" Luse smiled. "I am Luse, Le Fay, Peverall, Griffindor, Ravenclaw, Slytherin, Hufflepuff, Potter, Black, Guizu. I believe I am responsible for the letter I sent to you. It's a warm pleasure to finally meet the two of you, oh and you can just call me Luse."

oOo

A/N: Damn I managed to get a lot more than I thought done in this piece. I didn't think I would be able to create a meeting with Luse and the Greengrass sisters but I thought about it after the blood test for Jade and thought it would be a good connective, plus I know how much some of the readers as a good roasting of the blonde ferret.

Originally ill confess I was going to make Malfoy an ally but decided to save it for another story and tie him to Snape (who will also be a bad guy).

In any case, I've decided that with all of the reading I've had to do checking my inputted information for the other stories I have decided to place The Lightning Empress and Apprentice on hold for now until I have completed Forces of Darkness. If you have any ideas for the other two stories then I promise I'll take them into consideration when I start them up again. Honestly, it's my own fault for starting too many projects especially with my exams looming a couple of months away though if I do get time I will see what I can get done and post IF POSSIBLE.

Silver lining. In chapter, 17...the gang goes to Hogwarts

In any case:

Goodbye, for now, my little minions

Judge
