   Ever since his talk with Amber, Hadrian's mind has been overflowing with possible ways to weaken Dumbledore's power even more than he already had. He had already created slight worry when his magical guardian was mentioned from his first meeting with Rita despite the man's name not being mentioned and added much more distrust when Dumbledore not only lied to the students but tried to hide the fact from the world that a troll had entered Hogwarts and injured Hadrian. Not to mention most of everyone in Hogwarts were currently questioning Dumbledore's odd reasoning for hiring Lockhart. He couldn't use anything that would point towards him as the bearded fool already kept tabs on him. So anything involving his titles or connections due to his inheritance was out. He couldn't have all his evidence he backed up by too many Slytherins either as they are naturally distrusted due to many being associated with Voldemort in the past. Harry Potter was his only option but how to do it without drawing attention to himself was the question. The answer, Sirius Black. Despite the people distrust towards him due to his dark family history, he is known as a Gryffindor and was proven innocent and this drama led many to be curious about anything this man has to say.

As the perfect idea hit, Hadrian's head shot up as if a lightbulb was about him and searches his bag frantically for parchment. Blaise had been trying to grab his attention before this and just sits back as he watches in amusement. Theo looks up from his book, sitting across from them and looks to Blaise. "Lightbulb moment?" Blaise just nods and repeats that it is indeed a lightbulb moment. Hadrian lets out a little victory noice as he pulls parchment from his bag before placing it on the table and then frowning. With a snicker, Draco hands him his missing quill and Hadrian smiles at him before writing furiously. The letter is address to the one and only Sirius Black but can actually be read as to Snuffles. Hadrian won't put it past the headmaster to steal his letters and illegally read them before allowing or refusing them to be sent so he created code words to use with his dog of a godfather.

Dear Snuffles,
I hope this letter finds you alright. I am writing you to let you know that there has still been no word about your pup as the twinkling one has remained tight lipped. I suggest writing to the quote taker about your pup as they are amazing at finding out things about everything, even when they aren't supposed to. Mention my name and she should be eager to help for a bit of spilt tea.
Your favorite birdie,
Phoenix

Putting his quill down and looking quite proud of himself, Draco and Blaise exchanged raised eyebrows in question of what he had just done and ended up shrugging as they knew he would eventually tell them his plan. Hadrian asked Draco for permission to use Hercules to deliver a letter and Draco agreed as long as Hadrian filled him in on his plan tonight. Hadrian sent him an innocent smile and agreed before packing up his things into his bag and made his way to the owlery. Hercules hooted at the sight of him and flew down onto Hadrian's shoulder before sticking out his leg. Hadrian pet the eagle owl's feathers and attached the letter to the offered leg. "Take it to Sirius Black," he whispered as you never know when someone may be listening and made his way back to his friends who were about to head to the dining hall for dinner.

A few days passed and it was now the weekend. Sirius had yet to write back and he soon found out why when a grumpy Severus Snape let him know at lunch that a mutt had arrived to take him on a trip. His friends and older years looked at him curiously when hearing this but the boy decided to be cheeky and just gave them a wink. He hopped up from his seat and headed towards his professor's chambers without another word as he withheld a smile of excitement. As he entered through the portrait, Sirius Black stood by the floo looking quite proud of himself in one of the robes Cissa had bought him at Diagon Alley. "Hey little bird!" He said with a wink. "Is our plan ready for action Snuffles?" Hadrian asked with a giggle at the sight of Severus's unamused raised brow. "Don't worry Sev, you'll find out soon enough. No harm will come to this little one, don't you go worrying your greasy head." Sirius teased and yelped when stung with a rather harsh stinging hex. The man child pulled Hadrian into the floo with him and soon they were thrown into the Leaky Cauldron.
