Sasuke Uchiha in Harry Potter - Part 2

New Tournament

At Hogwarts:

In the headmaster's office, Dumbledore was conversing with Snape.

Snape: Albus, I need you to find me a temporary substitute.

Dumbledore: Has something happened?

Snape: I have to take a trip. I don't yet know what mission the Dark Lord has assigned me; I'll find out when I arrive at the location.

Dumbledore: Are you sure you don't want to tell me anything more, Severus?

Dumbledore and Snape locked eyes intensely until Dumbledore chose to look away.

Snape: No, there's nothing more to say, Albus.

Dumbledore: Good luck, Severus. I will take care of everything here.

Snape: If you're appointing Slughorn as the temporary head of house, make sure he does the job properly.

Snape had successfully lied to Dumbledore. All the practices he had undertaken to deceive the Dark Lord through Occlumency had proven useful.

In his office, Snape prepared potions and books, packing everything into an expandable bag. Once he finished organizing his belongings, he left the office and made his way to the main entrance of the castle.

As he walked through the corridors, the students remained silent. The more mischievous ones froze in fear.

Upon reaching the castle's main entrance, the doors opened for Snape to exit. Once outside, he disappeared with a flicker of Apparition.

Snape reappeared in a forest and ventured deeper within.

The Next Morning:

Sasuke returned to Hogwarts and headed to his secret base deep in the Forbidden Forest. His mind was occupied with the agreements he had made the previous day with Scrimgeour and Bones.

The search for the remaining Death Eaters was in Scrimgeour's hands, while Amelia Bones was responsible for the case involving Voldemort. She was negotiating with the Ministers of Magic from other countries to locate him.

Upon arriving at his base, Sasuke performed a series of seals to open the entrance. Once inside, he proceeded to a room where he conducted his experiments.

Sasuke pulled out an expandable bag and retrieved some anti-disapparition artifacts used in the last confrontation with Voldemort. He began to disassemble them, examining the runes they contained, working to enhance them.

In the Headmaster's Office:

Dumbledore was waiting for Filius, whom he had summoned for a discussion.

The door knocked, and Dumbledore gestured for Filius to enter.

Flitwick: Albus, good morning.

Dumbledore: Good morning, Filius.

Flitwick: What is the reason for my summons?

Dumbledore: I would like your support in reinstating the Duelling Club and organizing a tournament.

Flitwick: Are you serious?

Dumbledore: Yes, I believe it will be beneficial for the students. Voldemort will return, and the war will begin anew, so our best option is to strengthen the students, especially those graduating this year.

Flitwick: Then I will support this. It has been a long time since I've seen magical duels. We can appreciate each wizard's strategies and even offer prizes for the top five to encourage participation.

Dumbledore: Yes, I thought the same, but I would like the students to send us a list of spells to be used, so we can inform them what is allowed and what isn't. As you know, certain spells are passed down through wizarding families and are only mastered by them.
