Back To The Beginning By THE PEVERELL's LAIR

Chapter 15 : Surprisingly Unexpected Allies

The Potter and Black families had both descended into a somber mood. Ever since the involvement of a love potion had been learned off, there had not been a moment of peace.

The elder lords had gone out of their way to find Andromeda. But, their search had not borne any fruit. Harry had been on the edge all this while and had even called in a favor to help with the search.

FLASHBACK

Harry paced about in the hall of Potter manor. He had called in a few favours and said favour was about to come to Potter Manor.

The floo roared and a man stepped out.

"Okay. You said it was an emergency." The figure said as Harry nodded.

"Come on." Harry said and gestured for the figure to follow him back to the sitting room. The other people noticed the new arrival at this moment.

"Saul?" Charlus asked, surprised by the appearance of one of his older friends.

"Hello Charlus." Saul Croaker greeted the Potter Lord as he shook his hand.

"Well, I am here to see Harry. He had written to me stating that something important had come up." Croaker explained.

"Wait. How do you know my son, Saul?" Dorea asked as Saul placed a small kiss on the back of her hand.

Saul frowned before turning back to his protege. "You are in so much trouble, Kid." He chuckled as Harry was suddenly looking sheepish.

The two elders looked from Harry to Saul.

Harry gulped nervously.

"Uhm...please don't be mad," Harry muttered.

"Your son here is probably one of the best men that I had the privilege to train." Saul interrupted. The two still looked confused.

"He approached me after he arrived here. The lad was searching for hands-on experience. I agreed and took a role in training him. And frankly, this boy is a gem." Saul praised Harry.

"I went a step ahead and appointed him as one of my Spooks." He said and his parents stood shocked.

"You might have heard of him. He goes by the name Blaze." The two dropped their jaws in shock.

They turned back to the boy who was now looking anywhere but them.

"Are you crazy?" His mother snapped and Harry winced.

She turned on the old head of the Unspeakables.

"And you. What the hell were you thinking?" She gritted through clenched teeth.

Saul shook his head.

"Now, Dorea. It's not foolishness. Your son was too good to not pick him up." He tried to placate the woman.

Dorea turned back to her son but was too late as the boy had bolted as quickly as possible.

"That boy." She huffed, as she shook her head, now glaring at the two men snickering childishly.
