The Forbidden Forest
The Forbidden Forest
Lucas had been in London for several months, slowly integrating himself into the world of the black markets. It hadn't been hard to get things going rather well in London, especially with the name he had behind him. Hogsmeade and its general areas, however, were harder to get a good foothold into. He'd quickly been made aware that there was someone else in the shadier aspects of business but it wasn't something to stop the ambitious gentleman. He had a job to do, after all, and a lifestyle to maintain.@'Barnabas Skeeter'
He'd started doing some light prodding into the competition but seemed hard pressed in actually learning anything. All he'd been able to manage was the name Alice but very little else of the woman. It hadn't come as a shock, however, when he'd received a summons from said woman. Two men, they could hardly be described as actual gentlemen, showed up in London to request his attendance. While he understood it wasn't exactly a polite request but a demand, he'd still insisted on coming in his own time. He had business to take care of and simply requested they tell him where to meet this "Alice" lady and he'd be there in a few days.
The day had come when Lucas had decided it best to finally meet the source of competition and so he'd made his way to Hogsmeade. Once he was in a remote enough location, however, he turned into his animagus self and padded off into the forest in search of the lady he was to be meeting. It was hard to select an exact location in the Forbidden Forest so Lucas wandered about aimlessly, occasionally sniffing at different trees. It wasn't long before he caught the scent of one of the men who had visited him so he began to track that scent, knowing it would eventually lead him to where he needed to be.
