Hey guys sorry for the delay. My father hasn't been doing to well lately and add onto work. But not to worry i have rough drafts of 10- 15 chapters. All I have to do is type them out and right them.
Also do you think I should mess with the plot of the Second Year?

As Nova head out of the castle after bringing Hermione back to the common room and put her to bed, he noticed groups of men standing next to the Lava Lake prodding it with their wands. One man was actually on his knees leaning over trying to gaze into its depths. Seeing this Nova just shook his head. When he approached the edge, Nova pulled his clothes into his ring and started to transform. As he sank into the lava, his divine sense showed him that no one noticed that he had entered the lava.
"1, 2, 3,4, . . .18,19, 20 groups of four and no one saw a giant dragon enter a pool of lava. I think there is seriously something wrong with the people of this world." Nova thought to himself, while shaking his head. "I wonder how should I present myself, maybe I will have a little fun with them."
After enjoying the warmth that the lava provided to Nova, he slowly rose up from the depths of the Lake of Lava.

Researcher POV
*****************************
"Peters! If you get any closer to that pool of lava you are going to burn your face off, and what if the dragon comes out of it?" Some called out.
"Ah you worry too much Charlie. If the dragon was going to come out it would have already. You know how territorial these creatures are." Peters talked back to the man named Charlie. "And besides should you be taking care of the dragons we brought?"
"There is no need to. The minute we got them within this dragon's territory they immediately grew silent and laid down. Hell even the Horntail ran back into the cage one we let it out." Charlie said.
"You must be joking. What kind of dragon must this be for even a Horntail to want to return to the cage?" Peters said while standing up.
Suddenly the ground around them started to tremble and the lava rose up as a massive head broke through its molten surface.
"Not going to come out, huh Peters." Charlie whispered. Hearing him, Peters could only gulp as they stood and watched the dragon's head and neck continuously rise up. As the creature came up many of the research groups, scrambled to get out of its sight and hid behind trees. One person had a photography camera with them and took a picture, but when the flash went off it had caught the sight of the dragon, who swung its head down to investigate.
"Charlie what is it doing?" A person whispered over to them.
"I don't know. Who took that picture?" Charlie whispered back.
"I think it was Ray. He said he wanted a picture for his collection." The man whispered. But before Charlie could respond the dragon's head swept over their hiding place.
Suddenly the Dragon's mouth opened and everyone heard, "WHO DARES TRESPASS IN MY DOMAIN!!" The deep voice that came out scared the hell out of everyone. (Imagine the voice of Smaug when he was p$$ed).
Seeing that none of them had moved the Dragon opened its mouth and let out a loud roar that shook the earth around them.
"Come out now or I shall melt the flesh from your bones." The Dragon commanded to them. The researchers all looked at each other and slowly came out of the trees.
Seeing that they were out in front of it, the Dragon brought its body out of the lava and as it encircled them causing their backs to be to the lava.
"Human I will ask only once. What are you doing in my domain?" The Dragon spoke to them in a cold voice.
Hearing the question, they all started to answer at once. Then seeing that they all spoke at once, they all stopped so that only one of them could be heard, but unfortunately they all stopped talking at once.
"Hmph. . . Are you bags of flesh trying to irritate me? Since you can't seem to speak at one time. . . lets see. You. . . You will do just fine."
Suddenly the Dragon reached a claw over and picked up one of the researchers.
"Charlie!! Come back!!" Peters yelled.
"Come back? Are you idiots? How can he come back when I have him in my claws?" the Dragon retorted back to them shutting them up.
"Now human named Charlie. Tell me, why are you here? Don't you know trespassing is a crime?"
"Oh majestic dragon, we do not mean to intrude upon your home. We only wish to gaze in awe at your splendor. We are but humble researchers and scholars hoping to study."
The Dragon squinted its large eyes at them, "Do you think flattery will get you on my good side?"
Many of the researcher started to nod their heads, but seeing the Dragon gaze down at them they started shaking their heads.
"Though I applauded your use of the words, you fail greatly when speaking. You say that you are researchers but you clearly don't know how to handle dragons."
They saw that the Dragon was going to finish talking yet stopped and swung its head around, and peered at where they had the other dragons.
"I see. You thought I would be like the other mindly beast. Shame. Very well, I shall allow you to study and research but get that trash out of my sight."
"Thank you. Can you inform us of what me might be able to list your Greatness as?" Charlie asked the Dragon.
"Hmm. . . I will let you decide for me mortal. But I warn you, try to compare this Emperor to those beasts of burden, I'll . . . .sniff,sniff. . . interesting. Do you have kin in that castle over yonder?"
Hearing the Dragon say this he stiffened up, "Yes you do don't you, lets see you closer. I see red hair and freckles. Yes indeed I have seen your nestmates. Three to be precise."
"Stop I will think of a good title for your species." Charlie yelled at him.
"Good," the Dragon said and set Charlie down, "Now go run along, and warn the fools that sent you that if they dare intrude on my home, or attempt to take my treasure I will burn them and there 9 generations."
And with that the dragon slipped back into the lava. After a few minutes of silence when the creature had disappeared into the lake, the researchers and other people present started running either which way. Some ran to the dragons that they had brought and quickly took them back to the research sanctuaries that they were at before.
Peters ran to the tent that was set up and quickly spoke to the man inside, "Amos, the dragon, it came out."
"It did? What did it do. How big is it? Did you recognize the species?" Amos spoke.
"No we could not recognize what breed of dragon it was. As for its size all that came out of the magma was it head, neck, and claw, and it surrounded us completely."
"Really it is that large. But why did it surround you?" Amos asked while taking notes.
"Amos, it is highly intelligent and can hold conversations with us." Peters told him, "And it isn't too happy that we are intruding in its domain."
"It is just going to have to deal with it, but hearing that it can communicate is an amazing discovery. I must go inform the minister at once."
***************************
The Ministry
***************************
Once Amos had left the research station, he apparated straight to the Ministry to report what they had discovered. When he got out of the escalator to the first floor, he went right into the Minister's Office.
"Minister Fudge! Great news we have found the Dragon. And not only that it is able to communicate. Oh. . . .My apologies, I didn't realize that you were in a meeting. Lucius, Rufus how are you doing?" Amos spoke.
"Amos good to see you. No you are not interrupting anything. We were talking about the same matter as which you have come to report on. And correct me if I am wrong you said the creature can communicate."
"Indeed. Think of the knowledge we can gain from the creature." Amos said excitedly, "Though it didn't seem to be fond of the idea that we were there, or so I have been told."
"Oh yes the knowledge. I was just discussing the same with Lucius before Scrimegeor arrived and he too agrees with our views. Now did the creature mention anything else, by any chance?" Fudge inquired.
"No not at all, but since it is out and active now. We might be able to ask it questions." Amos said while wiping his glasses.
"Well we should hurry over and meet it then." Scrimegeor stated. And with that the four men Disapparated out of the office right to the edge of the lake.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
