Beyond Horizons

Much Awaited Guests

The atmosphere in the great hall was filled with anticipation as students and staff gathered together, wondering what could be so important that the headmaster called for a sudden meeting at 7 a.m.

The hall buzzed with excitement and curiosity as whispers and hushed conversations echoed throughout the room.

What amazed them even more was the presence of some familiar faces. There were some notable members present, like,

Charlus and Dorea Potter

Arthur and Molly Weasley

Lucius and Narcissa Malfoy

Andromeda and Ted Tonks

Augusta Longbottam

Xenophilius and Pandora Lovegood

Alphrad Black

Fabian and Gideon Prewett

Benji Fenwick

The McKinnon family

The Bones family

and many more.

"Mom! Dad! What are you guys doing here?" enquired a perplexed James Potter.

"We received a letter from Albus requesting our presence here," Dorea Potter explained.

"Yeah, I got a similar one too," Augusta Longbottom said, "and claimed it was something urgent."

"Where is Albus? I didn't see him here." Molly Weasley demanded.

It appears that, in addition to the students and faculty, a few parents and graduates were also present. It piqued everyone's interest in the information that would be disclosed today.

Just as the clock struck seven, the doors swung open, and the headmaster entered with an ethereal presence. A small fairy fluttered beside him, her delicate wings shimmering in the morning light. The sight of the fairy left everyone in awe, their eyes widening with wonder and amazement.

"Wow! Is that a fairy?" asked Fabian Prewett

"Look at her wings! They're so beautiful!" exclaimed Lily Evans.

"I've never seen a fairy up close before. This is truly magical," whispered a third-year Hufflepuff.

"Did he call all of us here to show his new pet? We are all busy people," said Lucius in an uninterested tone. Which earned him a deathly stare from his wife, Narcissa.

"Shut up, Malfoy. No one asked for your opinion here," said Marlene.

"Last time I checked, it was a free country, Ms. McKinnon," answered Lucius with a scowl.

The headmaster raised his hand, signaling for silence. Gradually, the chatter died down, some a bit reluctantly, and all eyes turned towards the headmaster and the fairy by his side. The headmaster cleared his throat and spoke with authority.

"Thank you all for gathering here today. I have called this sudden meeting because we have a very important matter to discuss, one that concerns all of us.".

"What is so important, Albus, that you have to summon us so urgently?" asked Andromeda a bit warily.

"All will be revealed in due time. Have a bit of patience, my dear," replied Albus.

Lucius was about to open his mouth but closed it after seeing a steady glare from Narcissa.

He then gestured towards the fairy, and she hovered gently in front of the crowd. The room fell into a hush, waiting expectantly for the fairy's revelation. However, to their surprise, the fairy seemed to be in no hurry to share the news.
