Saxon's POV

We continued to talk for most of the evening. I was pulled away a couple times by my parents. My Father was the first to come take me away from my friends, it is customary for the hosting parents to dance with their children. I danced with my father for a bit before he handed me off to my dad.

"How are you enjoying this years Ball?" Dad asked while we danced.

"I'm enjoying it more than normal, but I wish Sky were here. I miss her nagging me to dance with her." I replied.

"Well like your Father said we will be starting to plan and look for her tomorrow." Dad said.

"I wish to help. I know I am not of age yet, but she is my sister, it is my job to protect them. I failed Alex; I cannot fail Sky too." I said.

"Saxon. Perhaps it is time for your father to speak with you." Dad says.

"Why?" I asked.

"He has been meaning to speak with you for a while about some things." Dad replied.

I nodded and we finished our dance. When we finished, I went looking for my Father, he was dancing with Harry, so I went back to my friends. We continued talking for the rest of the night and when the time came for the night to end Cedric and I went up to my room to grab our trunks.

"Saxon are you sure you want to leave tonight? My parents will understand if you wish to stay and help with the meeting tomorrow." Cedric said.

"Cedric. I wish to help but how can I help if I am not of age." I replied.

Both of our parents had come up and stood in the doorway of my room.

"Saxon, perhaps it is time I sit you and your brothers down and we have a chat." My Father said.

"Yes Father." I replied.

"Meet me in my office I will be down in a few moments with Harry and Alex." Father said.

I nodded and went to Fathers office. I sat in one of the chairs and waited for the rest of my family. Father came in with Harry and Alex a moment later.

"Okay. Saxon, I know that you wish to help, and I have a feeling that both of you wish to help as well." He said.

When he received nods from all of us, he continued.

"Saxon, I have been meaning to speak with you about this for a while. I am going to give all of you the ability to create your own inner circles. You may come up with a mark if you wish but you must tell me everyone that is in your circle so that I may make sure that they will not betray you. These inner circles will become my eyes and ears at Hogwarts to keep Dumbledore under surveillance, your dad is helpful but having eyes and ears everywhere will make it easier to watch his moves. If anyone is able to get close to him, I must ask that you be careful." Father said.

"I understand. My circle has already been started I just need to make it official and ask them. Father are all my friends still here?" I ask.

"I believe that Ms. Farley has left with her parents, but I believe that the Prewetts are still here and your dad is leading them to the guest rooms." Father replied, "If they are who you wish to make up your inner circle, I approve all of them."
