Silver slept a dreamless sleep for hours until he felt like someone was watching him. He turned toward the voice and saw a man. He had thought was dead. His heart raced as he saw the white staff and peace makers at his father's hips.
"Dad. Your alive." He said.
James smiled at him. "Hello, son. It's been a minute." He said.
"Where are you? Who has you?" He asked.
James shook his head. "I don't know. I'm sorry I had you and everybody worried. How have you been?" He said.
Silver frowned and felt uneasy. James noticed. "What's wrong?" He asked.
"Your just a dream. Your not real. Mom and sis keeping telling me that I've got to accept that they finally got you. Your really gone." He said.
James signed and took a seat in his favorite chair. "I'm sorry to put you through this. I would have gone to my best friend for help but I haven't seen him in a couple years now. Hell I would have gone to anyone else to avoid putting you through giving you any false hopes but I need your help son. Your the only one that could answer my call." He said and then leaned on his staff. "Listen. Son. If you want this to be a dream then it's dream don't worry about me." He said.
Silver sat up. "What do you need me to do? How can I help you?" He asked.
James shook his head. "You can't. I'm held prisoner in a power prison. I can't Apparition out or escape on my own. There is only one man that can find me and get me out of this place. That's the only thing I need of you. If you can find him and tell him that I'm alive I know he'll find me. Just find him and leave it in his hands. Whether he succeeds or not don't worry. Live your life and be happy." James said as he began to fade away.
"Wait. Don't go. Who do I need to find. Who?!" Silver said.
Silver reached for him taking hold of his magic and he knew. "Your alive. Your alive!" He said.
James smiled at Silver. "Find Dago Malfoy. He's my best friend. The clues to find are in the library. He's the only I know brilliant enough to find me. Tell him what happened and let him handle it. Live your life. Be happy. That is the only thing I ever wanted for all my children. I love you." He said and faded away.
Silver came awake slowly rising from his bed to sit up. He lifted his hand and saw the magical finger print of his father's touch. He quickly got up rolling out of his bed and got dressed heading out of his apartment in the tower of the magi.
It was still early morning and only a few researchers were up studying books and writing on the white board.
Silver took his hand out of his pocket and started writing down an idea for spell the others studied what he was writing and then they started making room for him as his notes started to expand out.
The library was soon a buzz with talk and people taking down notes. A sound started to be heard in the library that was like the turning of a gear and then the library core appeared in the middle of the room.
Silver kept writing, erasing and writing more notes until he finally had something. "Lock down library." He commanded.
"Confirmed."
"Security on alert for magical spy devices. analyze notes given." He said.
"Spell system layout is correct. Ready to begin process."
Silver's heart raced as he put his hand to the board. "Analyze magical process signature. Activate." He said.
There was loud turning sound of gears and rumbling. Silver's heart raced as he waited patiently for the truth. He feared it had been just a dream. Maybe he was finally going made with waiting and wanting for the impossible after eighteen months and seven days.
The words on the black board disappeared. He steppes back as the image of man with dark hair and eyes appear on the board and name and detail information appear on the side of his profile picture.
James Potter
Heir to Merlon. The Prince of enchanter. The man of the mists.
Current location unknown.
Status: Alive
Silver rolled up his sleeves as paced the floor. "File and document magical signature process and save profile on the board. Clear board of finding. New project find James Potter. Project lead. Dago Malfoy. Seek out all information and where abouts of Dago Malfoy. All information is under a safeguard. No information is to get out. Am I understood?" He said.
"Confirmed."
Two words appeared on the board. Let's Go!
Silver nodded walked over and punched the words. The library came to life with the sounds of a energy and magical energy.
Dago Malfoy's artist portrait appeared on the screen along with a long list of his compliments and inventions. Emily came up beside him. "You were right." She said.
Silver shook his head. "He's alive Emily. Finding him is the only thing that matters. Dago Malfoy is the key to helping us." He said.
Emily sighed and she shook her head. "It's been years sense they've seen each other. He has been here in all that time. Will he come to help? Even if we find him." She said.
Silver narrowed his eyes on the image of Dago. "He'll help. He owes our father to much not to come and help. We'll look at the last time he was seen and then we'll follow the clues backward to the times he did his assignments for the library. We'll find him." He said.
"What did he say to you? Who took him?" Emily said.
"It doesn't matter." Silver said surprising a shocked look from him. "First we find Dago Malfoy then we find Dad. That's all I care about. We'll let the authorities and everyone else settle it afterward." He said.
"What is happening?" Mara demanded.
Silver didn't turn to see her. "Library. Confirm magical status of James Potter." He said.
"James Potter is alive. Location is unknown due to outside interference." The library said.
Emily was quiet. She looked back on their mother to her staring at Silver's stiff back.
"Silver what are you doing?" She asked.
"I'm running a search for Dago Malfoy. My father sent me a message to find him. So that is what I'm going to do. I'm going to find Malfoy and he will take over thr search for my father. I will not be assisting on the search for dad as per our agreement and Dad asked me not to search for him." He said.
"How did he communicate with you?" Mara asked him.
Silver smiled staring at the board. "He used mist magic. I caught a bit of it in our communication to confirm he is alive. All I need to do now is find Malfoy." He said.
"You didn't tell me you had mastered the magic your father created." Mara said.
Silver shook his head. "It doesn't matter. I had to master the magic to help dad in the library and in Hawks Landing. Are you here to help me find Malfoy or interfere with my mission?"
"I'll get Dago's back up notebooks. It will take some time but I know we'll be able to find him." She said.
Silver nodded. "Let's get to work." He said.
