Hogwarts. Headmasters Office.
Dumbledore had rebuilt his office since the mysterious thief blew it up. But it was a lot more bare, his rare book collection was gone and now he basically just had some decorative books and trinkets. The biggest loss was losing his Phoenix.
Not only was Fawkes a money making machine. He also was a good subtle reminder to the wizards of Britain, the lost sheep, that he was the Leader of the Light. As Phoenixes gather around 'worthy and just people' which is false. They just go to the most powerful person at the time and bond with them to continue their existence.
'Truly losing Fawkes was a big hit.' Dumbledore thought as he sat in his chair. Ever since he regained his original personality things got better, he can say they didn't. He quickly and ruthlessly gained back some of the political power he lost. Reminding people of who he was again.
But then things started to become more chaotic. First he lost the stone, and was lead around by the mysterious thief. Even with his former mentor Flamel, they got nowhere in their search for the Philosophers Stone.
Then some stray devil killed and ate the Dursleys. Which was a pity as they were always a quick and easy back up scenario to use their blood to trap Harry Potter once he becomes a threat. Now that option was lost.
'But the way they died is a problem. A Stray Devil appearing in London was rare, not only was it rare it was nearly impossible. The Protestant Church Headquarters was here in London, many magical families, the magician organization Golden Dawn was also located here as were the Pendragons. As well as our own DOM was keeping a lookout for strays.
It was an impossible net of surveillance, the other parties usually ignored wizards unless they caused too much damage to civilians muggles. But if any Stray were to enter the England they would be immediately captured or killed.
And yet somehow a Stray got past all that and by 'pure coincidence', attacked Harry Potter's relatives. I highly doubt that, this was intentional. But even more worrisome is that someone who knows about Harry Potters importance. Frankly its also believable that Harry Potter did this. It wouldn't be hard he just had to ask his American allies to do it.
But a new problem has arisen. A new Prophesy.'
" Turn and turn and turn again. You see the what but not the when."
This line warns against an attack, something that I know but I don't know when it will happen.
The Chosen Child who mocks Fate, fades away in the light.
Chosen Child who mocks Fate. This can only be Harry Potter, his existence is mocking Fate by just surviving Voldemort's attack. But fades away in the light?
From the shadows he strikes, unseen, unheard like darkness in the night.
This part is simple, yet also contradictory. Harry Potter striking from the shadows? That boy is bold and brass. He would kill you right in front of others without worrying about the consequences.
Death shall come to him. A bargain be made, hellfire raised. A weapon be made, leaving ruin at its wake.
Now this part is a problem. Death shall come to him. Voldemort and his Death Eaters perhaps? They join forces and create some sort of magical weapon? I can't be sure, especially with the stunt Harry pulled at the Wizengamot.
Turn and turn and turn again. You see the what but not the when.
Run, run. The hunter comes. The school's great name forgotten in the end.
Schools great name will be forgotten. Hogwarts will get destroyed or perhaps another magical school. Does Harry go Dark in the end?
A new sun rises, a new dawn comes, emerald light shines, bringing chaos and fun.
Watch thy self or you may lose thyself in its rays, for thy might be like Icarus, who flew too close to the Sun."
This is the problem with Prophesies. They are so confusing you can never be sure about what they entail. But what I do know is that I need to be prepared. More prepared then I am now. Perhaps its time I go on the offensive'
Dumbledore in his arrogance decided that the prophesy is about him, when in fact the target was not specified. It could be one person or it could be multiple.

"So what do you think" Nicolas asked his wife Perenelle about the prophesy
She is more skilled in Divination than him
"Oh its one of those prophesy" Perenelle frowned as she saw the sheet of paper
Nicolas nodded that much he knew, this was a prophesy that can be interpreted in different ways. More often than not these ones had double meanings.
"Right of the bat the second line The Chosen Child who mocks Fate, fades away in the light. Does he figuratively or literally mock the Fates and 'fades away in the light' it could be a simple teleportation spell, a synonym for ascending to godhood or he just walks into a room filled with light and many other meanings. Its useless to try and figure that out"
Nicolas gave a nod to that. It was too vague to make any sense of it.
"Now the third line. From the shadows he strikes, unseen, unheard like darkness in the night. Seems simple he becomes an assassin or hunter, but it could also point to the Chosen Child becoming a beast of the night. So vampire, devil, werewolf any of those would fit the bill. Thats why I don't like this type of Prophesy.
But after that things really get interesting. Death shall come to him. A bargain be made, hellfire raised. A weapon be made, leaving ruin at its wake. He will meet a Death God or their servant and make a deal with him. Any weapon created with a God's assistance will be powerful and deadly"
"True but Death Gods are quite reclusive not much is known about their personalities except that they hate other gods. Well stuck with a job like that I'd hate the company and other employs as well."
"Run, run. The hunter comes. The school's great name forgotten in the end. Again it could point to just being a regular hunter, but the beasts I mentioned previously are also hunters of some kind but the part about the school is what's interesting. Its name will be forgotten in the end. What end? End of the year? Decade? End of the war, or just the end of anything really. But what is sure that a Great School will fall"
"Hogwarts most likely, the prophesy was delivered there after all, and things have gotten more chaotic as well." Nicolas mused as he rubbed his chin
" Even more now that your stone is thrown in the mix"
"I know right" Nicolas just grinned, he really was like a kid in a candy store at the moment, he hadn't been this excited in quite a while
Perenelle just sighed, they had a reserve stone just in case that held enough energy to continue their immortality. Nicolas had moved some of the souls from the original in the reserve just in case. Frankly it would be better if they lost the stone, then people would stop annoying them. They can always just play the 'we have enough Elixir in reserve to keep us young' card. Then they can just quietly disappear in the background.
She shook her head getting rid of her thoughts, Nicolas wouldn't go for it, he was too flashy for this kind of thing. Perenelle looked at the next set of lines
"These ones however are clear,
A new sun rises, a new dawn comes, emerald light shines, bringing chaos and fun.
Watch thy self or you may lose thyself in its rays, for thy might be like Icarus, who flew too close to the Sun.
Its a warning, to whomever tries to go against the Chosen Child. The sun synonyms are interesting however. Could be figurative or perhaps he will gain light or fire abilities. Who knows" She shrugged, prophesies were fickle and vague, this type even more so. Frankly the best thing to do was to ignore them, lest they make a self-fulfilling prophesy like Dumbledore and Voldemort had done.
"In my opinion doing anything against this prophesy will only make it stronger, if the Potter boy is really who this prophesy is about. Then it would be best to kill him in a precise and quick strike or not to make an enemy of him"
Nikolas nodded "Then again its not really our problem. Hogwarts is probably the one that's going to suffer. Right now I have to deal with a thief, I have got to admit I'm looking forward to the day he moves the Stone from Hogwarts. Then the chase can really begin."
"Okay enough of that, time for dinner. I got my hands on some aged wyvern meat" she said with a smirk as she watched Nikolas's eyes light up
"Have I mentioned how much I love your cooking." the alchemist smiled gratefully
"Not in the last three months no" she smirked at him
"Then I have to say it more often. I'll go get the wine. Something that pairs up nicely with this" he gave her a quick kiss on the lips before heading off to the wine cellar.
'Even after all these years I still got it' she smiled to herself as she went in the kitchen to start preparing lunch.

"Damn that cheeky brat. 'Say hello' he says" Serafall slammed her forehead on the table
"Now, now Sera. Don't place your anger on some random child. Even through another heir did something stupid again. Plus you got something from that meeting didn't you" Sirzechs smiled as he glanced at the bottle of Fire whiskey near Sera
Sera grabbed the bottle and cradled it like a baby "Ahhh, if it wasn't for this little one I would be slaughtering devils right about now."
"Well I have been enjoying these quite a bit. Pity Grayfia doesn't let me drink a lot. It will interfere with my work she says." Sirzechs sighed as he propped his chin on his hand.
"Ajuka is still locked up in his lab. The boy using his clone spell like that inspired him. He is now even more obsessed. In his own words 'This is revolutionary. I thought only Gods can create Avatar as extensions of themselves. But if a human did it so can I. This will increase my research efficiency at least 5 fold.'" Serafall took another sip from her glass
"At least he is happy with the meeting we had. And boy did that kid have a sharp tongue. He ripped a new one for heaven. Frankly if our new generation had as much balls as him we could have fewer headaches."
Sirzechs nodded at her comment. While devils have been raising their numbers. The talent on the other hand isn't that big.
Serafall slumped in her seat trying to relax before she remembered something and got angry again "And how does that brat have information about a mysterious fallen before me!" she perked up again and grit her teeth. "I had to dig deep within our reports to find it. Some unregistered fallen is cleaning up the strays and exorcists. To make things even worse I called Azazel about him expecting to be rejected or him acting smug. Azazel spat out his drink and almost choked. I think it was genuine, he had no idea according to him no Fallen matches that discerption and every stray Fallen was in that region at the time of the attacks"
Sirzechs raised an eyebrow "A new gen fallen perhaps? Some kid who raised himself and is now hunting down 'villains'" he said with quotation fingers.
"A vigilante fallen? Finding justice for humans? Thats sounds like a cliché movie for teenage girls. All we need is a female protagonist he rescues and lets just make it an anime"
Sera suddenly put her hand on her chin and had a thoughtful expression "Wait.. that doesn't sound like a bad idea. Maybe a Levi-tan crossover episode? Levi tan vs Fallen Antihero. Hohoho I can feel the ratings rising already"
"Oii. Levi-tan. Underworld to Levi-tan" Sirzechs waved his hand in front of her face to get her attention but she was lost in her own world.
Bzzzz. Bzzzz
"Huh?" Sera snapped out of it and answered her phone
"LEVIATHAN-SAMA" A loud pleading voice yelled out through the phone "Belzebub-sama won't eat, he trapped me in a sound proof barrier and is ignoring me!!"
Two facepalms and sighs followed ' ' Stupid Ajuka' '
"Almost! I have almost got it!" And speak of the devil his voice was heard through the phone.
"Help me please~" the secretary pleaded even more, you could hear her crying "He is really starting to scare me"
Serafall deadpanned at Sirzechs "I did it last time. Its your turn"
The red head devil just reluctantly nodded as he stood up
"I will have the Avatar Clone. I won't be beaten by a little boy!" Ajuka's crazy laughter echoed in his lab
"Please hurry up! He is going crazy!!"
Serafall slammed her forehead on the table again "I really hate that kid. The last time Ajuka was this excited he barely slept for a year and he made the Evil Pieces back then as a result. I don't need more trouble because of another invention of his no matter how it helps our species. If he makes another invention that brings me headaches I swear I track down the brat, bring him to Ajuka and kill them both."
