Janus
Morgaine was a fool. And what a fool she was. Never did she think she could fall in love. Literally. Love is forbidden for her sort. A pirate some call them. Others...just darkness. She was a Nyx, sorcerers who prowl the night, protecting unsuspecting witches and wizards from evils they could never imagine. They kept secret, few knew of their existence. Those who did knew very little. One thing is certain, love was forbidden. It could get in the way; it was a weakness. Morgaine was strong and powerful, one of the most powerful of the Nyx. But she fell in love.
His name was Janus; tall, dark, and mysterious. His dark brown eyes could answer the questions of the night; they were seductive. For a long time Morgaine set her own eyes on him. She only saw him as a mysterious man, not a lover. She grew close to him. They would pair up together on their nightly adventures. Together they were extremely powerful. Soon they became close friends, never to be spilt apart. But how could one stop a human instinct, or a sorcerer's at that? They're time together grew intimate. They would look long into each other's eyes; the darkness comforted them. One night, on the eve of the shadow, a spirit of evil rage sought out the souls of children. It traveled to the renowned school of Witchcraft and Wizardry, Hogwarts. The sense of evil brought Morgaine and Janus to this location. Their incisive fear had been realized. This spirit was of that of Asmodai, the eater of the souls. What could this infamous spirit want with children? It's not like that; it seeks powerful sorcerers and devours their souls to become even more powerful. But of course, the famous Harry Potter is the young new headmaster at Hogwarts. His adventures and power are renowned. It wanted Potter's soul. Racing against time, the greatest enemy of all, Morgaine and Janus traveled to Hogwarts. They came just in time. The castle was surrounded in mist and Asmodai had approached Potter. Robed in their black cloaks and armed with their wands, Morgaine and Janus sought Potter and prepared to fight Asmodai. Asmodai did not attack, he only uttered these words,
" Potter is mine, but not today..not today,"
And with a hiss, Asmodai disappeared. He was not prepared to fight two of the Nyx, he would seek Potter another day. To protect Potter, it was decided that Morgaine and Janus would remain at the school, until Asmodai returns. That night they circled the grounds and sought refuge near the lake. Every star could be seen that night. There was a soft breeze that flowed through Morgaine's long dark brown hair. Again, they stared into each other's eyes. Morgaine felt confused for the first time. She felt something she had never felt before. She was reluctant to act, but Janus was not. That moment they shared that ill-fated kiss. They had crossed lines never thought of. It had to be kept a secret, for the sake of their lives.
It was hard. Only at night could they spend moments together where they could stare into each other's eyes and be comforted by each other's soft words. In his arms, Morgaine would lay and sing mystical songs of the past. It was bliss. However, they were young. Morgaine started to feel uncomfortable and more confused. She began to avoid him. She did not know why. It was like a voice told her to runaway every time she saw him. Janus noticed how she avoided him. He began to think it was his fault. Soon however, he began to think Morgaine's flame for him had been blown away. Janus felt heart broken. Enraged with anger and sorrow, he blasted Morgaine her faults and weaknesses. Tears were her only replies. Janus did not want to become enemies, so he spoke no more to her after his rage. They were alone. The moon no longer would shine bright during the night.
After a time, Morgaine loathed Janus. She blamed him; she could not forgive him for his harsh words. At least, this is what she thought. It was natural to be angry. She had flights of revenge that would induce jealousy, but something stopped her from doing so. She only had one person she could talk to about this, Potter. With him she could spill out her feelings and anger. Potter supported her feelings of disgust towards Janus. He himself was in a dilemma. He claimed he was deeply in love with the transfiguration teacher Hermione Granger. It seemed almost that he was obsessed. But Hermione continued to deny him. Morgaine tried to connivance him that he was not in love. But he insisted that he was. Morgaine then realized that he was young; she was young. Love should not yet exist for them. Especially for herself being one of the Nyx. Soon Morgaine and Potter grew closer each day, talking every moment they got. They insisted only that they were really good friends and any sort of intimate relationship would never exist. But their young hearts were foolish. This could not be avoided.
