Action-Is-All-That-Left (III)

Himera entered the bar only to be blasted on her face by the loud music and the fancy flashing lights… It took a moment for her eyes and ears to get adjusted. The place wasn't much different from Muggle nightclubs, not that prominent Purebloods knew that. Himera eyed the strippers dancing on the poles with their chests bared for everyone to see…

There were some people gathered around the strippers and the way they were tossing their gold at the strippers, Himera decided that they were prominent members of Wizarding Britain, which meant Purebloods. A crowd of young and tipsy people could be seen dancing on the dance floor, looking completely lost in the music and alcohol. Himera finally arrived at the bar and ordered a glass of white rum along with a deluxe service.

After getting her drink and a token for her deluxe service, she made her way into one of the empty private booths. She tapped the token on the doorframe to gain access to the booth… The booth wasn't that big, but the booth was big enough for all kinds of action. There was a center table in the middle of the booth with a dancing pole in the middle of the table, and the table was surrounded by a circular velvety couch. Himera sat down and nodded her head in satisfaction… The couch was really comfortable.

She didn't even have to wait a minute before the part of her deluxe package finally entered the room…

Her deluxe package was dressed in a black latex coat, but as soon as the door closed behind her, the woman took off the coat and tossed it aside, revealing her black latex corset with red accents. The woman's boobs were emphasized thanks to the sexy corset she was wearing, but that wasn't the end of it. She was only wearing a tiny latex thong to cover the modesty of her lower body with latex stockings to go along with the rest of her getup.

The woman untied her silky blonde hair before shaking her head to unfurl her hair to make herself look more appealing, and Himera had to admit, the woman was extremely beautiful. The woman stared at Himera with her bright green eyes, but her eyes weren't as vibrant as Harry's… The woman smiled at Himera saucily as she had noticed Himera checking her out, but what the woman didn't know was the fact that Himera was checking her out for a completely different reason.

"So, what first, darling? Business or pleasure?" The woman sultrily.

"Looking pretty nice there, Sandy" Himera greeted the woman as she took a small sip from her glass. The woman now recognized as Sandy, narrowed her eyes at Himera.

"Do I know you?" Sandy asked as she stared at Himera. Sandy recognized the scar on Himera's cheek, but the rest of the face didn't make any sense to her, and Himera didn't even have a tongue, to begin with, and this woman was clearly speaking. "Himera?" Sandy asked in a disbelieving tone, making Himera smile.

"Took you long enough" Himera commented with a grin before taking another sip from her glass.

Sandy simply sat down on the couch and scooted closer to Himera… "The fuck happened to you, darling?" She blurted out with a shocked look on her face.

"Well, I was forced to choose new employment and my new employer is very generous" Himera answered cryptically, making Sandy stare at Himera with wide eyes.

"You fucking with me, right?" Sandy asked with a growl before smiling slyly… "You look like Himera, but you are not Himera. She looked like a freak show, and you don't get to heal from wounds like that, darling… So, who are you for real?" Sandy asked with a grin on her face.

"Thanks for the glowing description" Himera commented drily. "Unfortunately for you, I don't care if you believe me or not. I have paid the gold for the deluxe package and I will receive the services" Himera stated firmly, not wanting to waste her time anymore.

Sandy stared at Himera intently for the next few moments before finally nodding her head. "Fair enough" Sandy shrugged as she leaned back on the couch. "You wouldn't mind if I get something to drink, would you?" Sandy asked and Himera simply gestured her to go ahead. Sandy leaned down and pulled out a bottle of vodka from under the center table along with a glass before pouring herself a small drink.

"The Death Eaters have started to move again… What can you tell me about that?" Himera asked, making Sandy stiffen a bit even though she tried to play it off like nothing.

"Not much for sure, but there are some rumors floating around…" Sandy revealed hesitantly. She knew that passing around information about the Death Eaters was dangerous, but it came with the job. They had accepted the gold and if she refused to follow through with the agreement, it would be bad for their reputation, and a bad reputation would be bad for business.

"Take this with a pinch of salt, but the rumors are that the Dark Mark is becoming darker with each passing day" Sandy revealed before pouring herself another drink, and when Himera extended her glass too, Sandy dutifully poured her a drink too.

"Hm… What about the current state of affairs in the Knockturn Alley?" Himera asked.

"Not much has changed, but recently, some Werewolves and Vampires have been sighted around. Most of the time, they lay low, not wanting to draw much attention to them, but recently, they have been acting up… Once again, take this with a pinch of salt, but the rumors are that the hags might start showing up too" Sandy revealed with a grin. "That concludes our business" Sandy stated and Himera nodded her head in understanding.

"Though you still owe me a dance and some service" Himera pointed out, making Sandy grin sultrily, She placed her glass and the vodka bottle and the edge of the couch before she climbed up on the table sensually. Sandy stared at Himera intently before snapping her corset open with a sultry grin on her face, revealing her bare breasts to Himera…

"Why, Lost Garden though?" Katerina Kabal asked curiously while looking down at the Sigil of the Lost on her arm. She heard some agreements from her fellow escapees. At first, they were dumbfounded when all of a sudden alarms were triggered, but then all of a sudden, they appeared inside a twisted hall of the Nurmengard Castle with former leader Gellert Grindelwald standing beside a young teenager.

They were even more surprised when Gellert introduced the boy as Harry Potter… Most of them knew who Harry Potter was as he was the sole survivor of a Killing Curse and they were downright gobsmacked when Gellert revealed that he had decided to work for Harry Potter. Gellert wanted them to accept the same offer in exchange for their freedom.

There were 6 of them who downright refused the offer and by the time Gellert finished delivering the pitch, 62 of them decided to accept the offer and work for Harry Potter while 10 more decided to decline the offer… Harry Potter, their new boss, straight out Obliviated the sixteen of them. For whatever reason, Gellert looked somewhat relieved at that.

And after that, Harry Potter had started to place the Mark of their arms known as the Sigil of the Lost before finally bringing them here through a green sparkling portal… Right now, none of them knew where they were, but most of them seemed to be quite overjoyed as they were finally free after so many years…

"Hmm… The reason is somewhat convoluted, but I will try to explain" Harry answered thoughtfully before taking a small pause. "Because our group will not be a part of the wider world. We will build our own place and the rest of the world won't have a place in this group of ours…" Harry explained thoughtfully. To be honest, it was hard to put his feelings into words.

"I see… That explained quite a bit" Gellert muttered thoughtfully. "So, what now?" He asked Harry. He was sure that Harry didn't free them because he wanted to give them a good life with sunshine and rainbows…

"Right now, all of you are practically useless to me with being Wandless and all that" Harry pointed out, and even though it didn't sound nice, he was right. "But before getting Wands for all of you, I will be rejuvenating all of you back to your primes… All of you are way past your prime and I want all of you at your best" Harry explained, surprising everyone, including Gellert.

"You are going to rejuvenate us, how?" Gellert asked with a dumbfounded look on his face.

"Yes, I can… The theory is very simple, but the feat seemed impossible until now because nobody was powerful enough to carry out the whole process" Harry stated like it was the most obvious thing in the world. |Then there is the fact that nobody is intelligent enough to go through all the calculations on the go… Well, anyone except for me, that is| Harry mused internally.

"And you have the power to rejuvenate all of us?" A Wizard asked from the crowd and Harry simply nodded his head without any hesitation, making some people scoff at him. The man who asked Harry turned to look at Gellert. "You aren't believing him for real, are you?" The man asked disbelievingly.

After hearing the man's question, Gellert chuckled in amusement before shaking his head. "He is yet to give me any reason to mistrust him and until proven otherwise, I will choose to believe him" Gellert stated, making Harry smile at him while some of the new members of Lost Garden didn't know how to react to that statement.

"Then let me go first. It's not that I don't trust you or him… After all, I am here, but I don't want anything to happen to you in case something goes wrong during the process" Katerina Kabal stepped forward before declaring with a determined look on her face.

Harry turned toward Gellert, who gave him a nod after some pondering. Harry turned toward Katerina with a soft smile on his face. "Well, let's get started then" He stated joyfully while staring at Katerina…
