CHAPTER UPDATE:44 || DUMBLEDORE’S ARMY
… “Shit,” Aurelia mumbles, glancing at her three friends “Do you think —”
“Smith,” Olivia says darkly, cutting off Aurelia’s question but still answering it as though she had known exactly what Aurelia was about to ask.
“It wasn’t me,” Zacharias mutters from behind them, “I’m not that much of a little bitch.”
The four girls turn on him, giving him dirty looks.
“That’s debatable,” Aurelia says, narrowing her dark eyes at him as she crosses her arms over her chest.
“Well,” Hannah mutters under her breath, “At least he’s self-aware.” …

CHAPTER UPDATE:48 || BELLATRIX AND BETELGEUSE
… Aurelia goes back to her work only to be interrupted hardly ten minutes by none other than Neville, he gives her a sheepish look after poking her shoulder “Hey, Ari, can you help me with this, uh, question here?”
Nervously, Aurelia glances at Neville and the parchment in his hands. His round face is bright red and his hands are shaking, she nods her head “Aye, sure what is it?”
“Why are you ignoring me,” Neville says quickly, almost in one breath but he gives her a determined stare.
Aurelia blinks, smiling slightly “Wow that was — wow, well played, Plant Boy.”
Neville gulps but the sly smile on Aurelia face makes the bold question on the tip of his tongue easier to say “I think the, um, answer is supposed to be, uh, longer than that.”
Aurelia laughs, smiling widely, she gives him finger guns and wink “I’m sure you’re right, Plant Boy but Sinistra is staring at us and I’m sure she knows just as well as we do the answer isn’t one she wants discussed on her watch.”
“After class then,” Neville says, it’s not really a question, Aurelia can tell he wants answers and he deserves them but she can’t give him truthful ones.
“Aye, after class, Plant Boy.” Aurelia agrees, smiling fading as she instantly regrets saying yes to this. What if he knows, what if Lyra actually told him and he’s going to —
“I’ll hold you to it, Sunflower Girl,” Neville say …

CHAPTER UPDATE:47 || POSSESSION REALLY SUCKS
… She blinks, startled by the fact that he’s genuinely annoyed. In the time she’s known Neville and Aurelia, he’s never been anything but patient with her and to see him act like this, it leaves a bad feeling in the pit of her stomach, Abigale frowns and scuffs her feet against the snow-covered ground.
“Well, it’s not that she’s confiding in me or anything, like, we’re not even hanging out for fun. I’m teaching her Legilimency and Occlumency, she needs it because of Professor Black, who’s like a total twat,” Abigale says quickly.
Neville’s annoyance fades back into concern “What did Lyra do to her, is that why she hasn’t talked to me?”
“Well, Longbottom, it’s up to her to tell you that. And she will, she doesn’t want to lie to you, she’ll tell you anything — anyway, I’ve got to, like, go. I will tell her to talk to you, don’t worry, Longbottom, I am rooting for you,” Abigale says, winking at him. …

CHAPTER UPDATE:46 || WHO ARE YOU REALLY?
… Apparently all the professors were told by Dumbledore to pass the message along to Aurelia because on the way up she passed Professor Flitwick and Professor Sinistra both tell her a similar message. And Aurelia finds herself very uneasy and angry by the time she gets to his office. She doesn’t understand why he wants to speak with her, she hasn’t done anything wrong.
Entering the office she’s met with sight of Dumbledore and Umbridge — ah, fuck this can’t be good. Aurelia shakes in both anger and nerves as Dumbledore and Umbridge leer at her, they both look feverishly excited about something and that makes Aurelia feel very queasy. She scuffs her feet against the ground, biting her lip and she wants to stand tall but she feels very small “Why am I here?”
“Did the professor who told you I needed to see you not tell you why I’ve requested to speak with you,” Dumbledore questions, sounding slightly exasperated as he spares a glance at Umbridge, Aurelia shakes her head.
Dumbledore doesn’t look like he’s going to explain but it’s not like he would get the chance to because Umbridge clears her throat and pulls out a long black envelope with the Ministry of Magic emblem on it in gold ink. …

Update is finally out and now stands as my second longest chapter! I’m sorry it took so long for me to finish. If interest continues to be shown, I will be more encouraged to keep going. <3
Also, I have now updated my page to include a table of contents!
Chapter One NOW AVAILABLE on FF.net and AO3
**Banner made by the fabulous @ocfairygodmother!
SUMMARY: Dean & Sam Winchester have lived their lives surrounded by the dark forces of the world, pushed and pulled and forced to bend in their mission to rid the world of evil and save innocent lives. Learning that they are the heirs to an extinct organization dedicated to chronicling the supernatural world was just another day at the office. In reviving the Men of Letters, however, they find they are not as alone as originally thought. Joined by Erica, a fellow legacy seeking her own answers within the walls of the bunker, the brothers dive headfirst into a world of nigh-impossible trials and ancient magic when given the chance to close the gates of Hell and forever remove demons from the face of the Earth. But as they learn that Erica’s ties to their quest run deeper than they could possibly imagine, Sam & Dean must consider the long-reaching consequences of this endeavor and whether they are willing to pay the cost. Perhaps, in the end, a legacy of blood and death is all that awaits the Winchesters.
Chapter One: Intruder Alert
Teaser:
Sam stepped over the threshold onto the bunker’s main landing, only to pull up short. His eyes narrowed as he surveyed the brightly lit control room and the library visible beyond. “Did we kill the power when we left?”
“Pretty sure, yeah,” Dean confirmed from behind his left shoulder. “Why? Oh.”
Wasting no time, the eldest Winchester stepped around Sam, dropping his duffel bag on the landing and drawing his pistol from inside his jacket. Slow, deliberate steps carried him down the metal stairs in silence as sharp eyes skimmed familiar surroundings. Matching Sam’s low, cautious tone, he asked, “No one can get in here without a key, right?”
Sam nodded as he drew his own weapon, then remembered that Dean couldn’t see him as he followed his brother downstairs. He thought back to his disastrous visit with a former member of the Men of Letters and the valuable information he had imparted a few weeks before. “That’s what Larry said. This place is supposed to be warded; nothing gets in unless we let it.”
“And we’re the only ones with a key.”
It wasn’t a question as Dean switched off his pistol’s safety, head on a swivel as he paced through the control room, searching for anything out of place. Sam mirrored his brother as they entered the library. Each took a side of the room and paced between the shelves, checking each nook for intruders or clues.
As Sam approached the middle reading nook on the right side of the library, he found his first confirmation of an intruder in their new base; stacks of books and papers littered a small study table, which Sam knew neither of the brothers had used yet. Dean hadn’t been much interested in the library archives at all, preferring to explore the bunker’s many other features while Sam had been doing his own reading on the larger center tables where he could spread multiple books for easy reference. Even if he had used the more private area provided by the reading bays, he had spent all his time researching the Men of Letters and their various allies around the world. As he skimmed the gathered titles and a few passages that had been bookmarked—a pencil in one, a receipt for ten bucks worth of fuel in another, a shamefully dog-eared page in the last—he noticed they all pertained to demons and summoning rituals.
“Someone’s been here.”
“You sure? I thought maybe this was yours,” Dean called. Sam found him standing at the center table, a black leather jacket hooked on one finger that was obviously too small for either of the brothers to claim.
“You’re hilarious,” Sam said dryly, abandoning the study area to join his brother.
“I know.” Dean broke into a self-satisfied grin before draping the jacket over the back of one of the chairs. Returning to business, his lips pressed into a thin line as he glanced around the library. A series of hand gestures directed Sam to search the right wing while Dean took the left.
Tightening his grip on his pistol, Sam nodded his agreement, slipping past his brother back toward the main entrance.
“Sammy?” The low note of warning called his attention to where his brother still lingered at the head of the library’s center table. “If they can slip past the wards, there’s no telling who or what they are.”
Though it was unnecessary, Sam understood the unspoken message there.
Be careful…
