Ok, It’s august 4th and the site is almost done, a few simple adjustments are being placed together, things are going up rather nicely and the board looks really good. We have a few new Staff members that are all wonderful people and are all working diligently to ensure that the site is up and running as soon as possible.

Tap, Ta, Tap..cling!
Shadow held out the long wodden walking stick he used for eyes, as always a small infant baby held close to him as he made this way through the streets of new york without accutly knowing where he was heading.
His desided location was to take Lizy to a child care center, but as he reached the place Shadow had received cold feet. His smile baby girl, his pride and joy who held onto him right now sleeping as his one free hand held her in place of his hip as he walked blindly on what he thought was a foot path.
Shadow had recieved a new jb at Hogwarts and found that it was quite a struggle holding onto a baby and clean at the same time, so he'd given in needed somewhere to put Lizy where he could trust his one joy in this world was safe. and yet the moment he had thought about handing her over into the arms of compleat strangers for the first time since she had been born over a month ago. well the idea wasn't so appealing.
Now he'd taken her away frm that place appolgising again and again for almost letting them take her away. when really he knew he was yelling at himself for being so foolish. He loved Lizy to much to risk her being hurt, and he promised to care and protect her for ever. how could he do that when he wasn't there with her? he thought walking blindly up the street.
He must of taken a wrong turn or something because Shadow was lost and he knew it. in his rush to take Lizy away from the horriable care center, he'd forgotten where he was meant to be going and so Shadow found his feet carring themselves off into the morning sunday markets. and he couldn't even see what was there.
before he knew it he found himself un able to tap the walking stick because the busy rush of people thumping past him, hitting his shoulder as they went and almost kncking Lizy form his arms. he held the sleeping black haired child to his chest and hesitantly concidued his walk, much slower as he had no idea where he was going. soon enough he somehow found a bench, and Lizy was crying, she was due for a feed. he thought sitting down carfully and pulling the baby back pack on his bag, finding a warm bottle he made sure it wans't to hot before he slowly placed Liy in his lap, his finger touched her forhead and trailed down her lillte nose untill it found her soft lips. smiling when he found it he gentillypressed the nipple of the bottle to them and then reached behind her soft baby head to hold it upright.
even feeding turned out to be a hard task for Shadow sometimes, it took him a long time to learn that tecniquie which was accutly a tip from a friend.

Jess had been concentrating on shopping for a new summery dress at the time, but as her eyes flicked past unfamiliar faces, they suddenly came to rest on someone she did remember. It was the Janitor at Hogwarts, not that Jess knew him very well. sensing that he seemed a little isolated, Jess stepped through the busy crowds and sat down nearby on the bench.

"Hi, er, it's Jess. From Hogwarts. Miss Mitchell. It's... Mr Cooper, isn't it? I wondered if i might join you for a while." She glanced down at the baby cradled in his arms, curious about it, but knowing better than to ask.

Even sightless Shadow could feel someones eyes on him, he shifted blindly searching around for the person. He could hear many heart beats and pulses at each of the individual patterns. It was hard to pick out which one was watching him.
"Hi, er, it's Jess. From Hogwarts. Miss Mitchell. It's... Mr Cooper, isn't it? I wondered if i might join you for a while."
Shadow thought and nodded, he knew almost all names of the teachers because he often was asked to clean there class rooms or offices or do little tasks that was suppose to be impossible for a blinded man to accomplish.
“yes thats me,” he responded to her asking his name,
“And no, I don’t mind at all.” He replied simply, it shouldn’t matter if she asked or not. He dind’t care.

Jess had always been able to tell when prople felt empty inside. Knowing how she had felt after the deaths of her parents had made her wary, though, as she began to feel that some people disliked being pitied. Wondering if maybe Shadow had been pitied enough to make him sick of it, Jess watched how carefully Shadow looked after the baby in his arms.

In spite of it's fragility, Jess could see how unafraid it was, and knew that Shadow must have spent hours of time painstakingly looking after her. "What's her name? She's really pretty..." Jess's voice trailed away, and her stomach lurched slightly when she realised that she might have said something inappropriate.

Shadow highed the bottel feeling that it was getting epty and it was almost finished,he reminded himself he needed to get sme more of the milk and keep it arm when he found his way back home, how ever he planed on doing that.

"What's her name? She's really pretty..."
Shadow took the bottel away as Lizy stared at figit and skwirm in his lap, he placed in on the bench he was sitting on.
clank he heard it hit the ground, sighing he dind't move and pick it up instead he brought Lizy up and started to pat her back in small rotating circled.
"Her names Lizy...and yes, she is the most beaitful thing in this world." he replied simply.

Encouraged, Jess could hear the doting, almost proud tinge of a father in Shadow's voice as he replied. "I'd agree with you there, you must have done masses for her," she added. Jess ducked under the bench and retrieved the bottle, glad she could do something helpful. She'd never been any great shakes with babies, though she tried to be gentle, and friendly... Replacing the bottle on the bench, she watched Shadow and Lizy, almost envious of the obvious aptitude he had for looking after children. It somehow made it seem even harsher that he was blind.

"It's almost empty, the bottle. Is it helpful if I get some more?" Jess asked gently. She wouldn't know what to buy, but respect for someone who took as much care with a baby bottle as she did with a rum bottle encouraged her to try and help.

"I'd agree with you there, you must have done masses for her,"
Shadow felt the corners of his mouth tug as a ghost of a smile played on his face and vanished. he nodded the slightest and contiued to gentlly pat her back.
Clinck he heard the bottel on the bench and he assumed the wonam had placed the bottel on the bench.

"It's almost empty, the bottle. Is it helpful if I get some more?"
"No, She is full the rest is a waste now." he told her contiueing to pat Lizzies back now moving from hwere he was.

1998 - November

It has been a year since Harry Potter defeated Voldemort in the Battle of Hogwarts. The world has finally gotten a period of blissful peace after the many years of Voldemort's terrors. The Ministry of Magic in London has begun to bond with other countries, and has therefore created bonds with other Magical Schools.

Teams of Aurors have already captured every Death Eater and put them in Azkaban. The Ministry has ceased any uprisings, desparate to make the peace last for centuries more. The world seems to be getting brighter and brighter by the minute.

How long will this last?

Suddenly, armies of Muggles begin to destruct the Magical World. But, how did they get in? Aren't Muggles supposed to suddenly remember an appointment when they neared magical communities? There must be someone controlling them; someone has to be working behind the scenes... Someone who wants to revive the Dark Lord's prophecies.
