《The Lion and The Raven ~ James Potter AU》CHAPTER 6

"Why were you talking with Lucius Malfoy?" asked Sirius, as he sat at the Ravenclaw table next to Milly with a natural elegance.
James smirked as he dropped himself on the other side of Camilla, "I know, right! Lucius Malfoy is without a doubt the most idiotic, peacock like, dumb-"
"He is my cousin." she piped.
She was greeted with the shocked faces of Jem and Siri. They made quite a sight really, with their wide eyes and open mouths.
She smirked, "If you want to know our genealogy, my father's sister happens to be his mother."
Their mouths were still dropped, not a single ounce of their pureblood composure was to be seen.
She continued with her voice casual, however the shit eating grin on her face said everything, "We happen to be quite close, actually. He visits the Main Lavensque Castle every summer and I visit the Malfoy Manor every weekend. He is like the big brother I always wanted."
Their faces had not changed one bit.
"The Main Lavensque Castle?" asked Lily Evans, who was passing by. "How many do you have?"
"7 in France. 6 others are spread across the globe. Oh and 42 Manors as well." she said like she was talking about the weather.
Lily Evans' face resembled James and Sirius so much in that moment, they could have been mistaken for triplets.
Camilla Lavensque calmly sipped her Iced Tea.
"Good morning, Camilla." said Catherine Fawley as she seated herself across her best friend, "Theodore Nott asked me to inform you that he was waiting outside the Ravenclaw Tower for you..."
"Oh, alright. Merci..." she replied with a smile as she got up from her seat to leave.
James was the first to snap back to reality, and he frowned confused, "Why would Nott want to talk to you?"

This time, it was her turn to look confused, "Why wouldn't he? He is my cousin." and without another word, she left.
Both the confused boys and the still frozen Lily Evans turned to Catherine Fawley who was, much like her best friend, siping her orange juice calmly, with their mutually confused expressions.
She raised a perfect eyebrow, "What?" she asked.
"Nott- cousin- how-what?" mumbled Lily Evans.
She carefully set her orange juice glass on the blue coaster with the grace of the pureblood heiress she was and explained, " Theodore Nott and Camilla Lavensque are related through her mother. Her mother is Regina Lavensque nee Nott."
Sirius Black composed himself, "So, she is related to Malfoy and Nott?"
"Yes." replied Fawley.
"And they are first cousins?" asked Lily Evans.
Catherine Fawley looked at her with a sour expression on her beautiful face, but answered her nevertheless, "Yes."
"And they are very close?" asked James Potter, still dazed.
She looked directly into his hazel eyes. "Extremely."she replied.
Sirius and James looked at each other in complete horror.
"Oh, Merlin! What have we gotten ourselves into?" they cried.
Catherine Fawley siped her juice with the most beautiful grin on her face.

Humanity's End
Given a year to prepare by the mysterious ‘system’ for contact with the wider galaxy, humanity must work to ensure the Earth’s defense is ready to meet any challenge. Sadly, most of the world seems dedicated to tearing itself apart as the year-end deadline gets closer. The west is in barely contained Chaos, while the east descends into internal conflict and war. The Pillar Forts, one of the few successful projects of the United Nations headed by the United States, stand ready to defend humanity against any invasion that may come through the strange Connection Pillars that appeared on each continent. Massive steel and stone walls that surround the Connection Pillars. They are filled with deadly men and women trained in all manner of warfare, each trained in the newly acquired System with skills and magical abilities that they put to deadly purpose. Beside these brave warriors, tanks, helicopters, artillery and more stand ready to defend humanity at each of these powerful installations. But, can they overcome the disparity in levels and experience between themselves and the forces that threaten them and the rest of humanity? Main Characters Jessica Brown- A young African American girl. Her 18th birthday in Detroit was the same day the systems message appeared. She discovered she was Level 7, much higher than most of the rest of the world. Why she is blessed, or cursed, with the power she doesn’t know. But what she does know is that she rather likes the feeling that comes with manipulating magic. The week after her birthday, government workers started testing every person in the US in a massive census effort of skills and abilities. Jessica Brown found herself conscripted into the US Magical Corp, a new branch of the US Military, and shipped off to a Pillar Fort. Somewhere hot and muggy in her ancestors’ home of Africa. As she grows stronger, she finds she has some connection to the pillars. While everyone else sees beauty or danger when they look at the pillars, after connection is made all Jessica can see is a Tree. A tree the size of the entire universe. Isaka Smith - is a third generation American and farmer who just wants to be left alone. But she is dragged into the situation by events beyond her control. When people in her small town had to deal with rioters and looters after the system announcement, she rallied them to defend themselves, earning her a trait that the government found extraordinarily useful. After a visit to a local reservation, she finds herself conscripted to lead one of the many small support towns erected around the great pillar forts. Not near her old home, but in far-flung Africa. John McIntire, the “Fighting Bull” -The commander of the African Fort, but because of circumstances beyond his ability to contend with shortly after taking command after being re-activated from retirement, he finds communication with his chain of command increasingly difficult. The US government, hell, even the United Nations, seems to have fallen into complete and utter chaos. The African Union is embroiled in a bitter civil war just outside his door, and supposedly, most of the world governments are in similar situations. Meanwhile, John must do his best to be ready to facilitate diplomacy, or to match the hostile argument of whatever force might come through the pillar of light when the year timer finishes counting down. Can our heros defend Earth from outside threats, while it tares itself apart? Or will they need to rebuild from the ground up? DEDICATION: This story is dedicated to my father who passed away recently. Jim Holloway, you’ll be missed you old silverback gorilla. Love you dad. Always have, always will.
