A/N: Hello, lovelies! Anyway we have some... (dun dun DUNNNNN) Dumbledore!
DISCLAIMER: I'm not J. K. Rowling!
DESTINY BANBOHANAM:
Why do they hate each other so much? "Watch where you're going," Dominic said to Skyler and it was the same thing he'd said to me but with a few extra volumes of deadliness in his voice.
"I wouldn't have to if you weren't so careless." Skyler sneered back.
Oh no. "Well, maybe Dad would've been alright if you weren't so worthless." There was a crowd gathered around the two by now. I exchanged a look with Cassie. We need to stop this, I tried to say with my eyes. I held up three fingers to her and mouthed 3, 2...1. Right as Skyler was about to give him a left hook, Cassie held on to Skyler's arms behind her back. I held Dominic's arms behind his back. I gave Melody a pointed look because Dominic was a bit stronger than I was being a Beater on the Slytherin Quidditch Team. Then she was by my side and tugged him by the back of his robes….And he fell. What the hell? How did she…? Never mind.
"Watch your back, brother. If you ever talk to me, you will regret it." Skyler snarled, getting out of Cassie's grip, walking into the classroom.
"That'll be a problem. Since we'll live in the same house." Dominic muttered. Oh no. How did they become so angry at each other? How will they live together without killing each other? Or me? Then he grabbed Skyler's arm and said quietly enough so only she and I heard, "Wizard's duel. On the next full moon at midnight near the Whomping Willow."
"Fine. Wizard's duel." Skyler agreed.
"What the bloody hell is wrong with you?! Do either of you even know what a wizard's duel is?" I yelled when the four of us were in our dorm alone.
"You just fight with your wand and use magical spells, right?" Skyler asked, shrugging. THAT IDIOT!
"NO! IT'S A FIGHT TO THE DEATH! HAVE YOU NEVER READ A BOOK ABOUT MAGIC BEFORE?!"
"Oh, you read? I never knew." Cassie said. My anger shot up.
"THIS ISN'T FUNNY! ONE OF THE TWO WILL DIE IF THEY GO THROUGH WITH IT AND IT'LL MORE THAN LIKELY BE SKYLER WHO DIES!"
"Well, I'm a orphan! It's not like money gets thrown at me like a shower! And, thank you for being sincere. It's so great that I'm the one who dies." Skyler snapped back.
"BECAUSE HE'S OLDER AND KNOWS MORE SPELLS THAN YOU! YOU IDIOT!" I yelled. Then I took a deep breath said, much more calmly, "We're coming with you, whether you want us to or not. To make sure neither you nor him does anything too stupid."
"Fine." she grudgingly agreed, knowing under our stern gazes that even if she didn't agree, we'd just follow her.
Under the full moon, we couldn't find Melody so the three of us had gone without her. The Whomping Willow was terrifying. I could almost feel the Dark magic coming from inside. Luckily, it was a Saturday so even if one of us got hurt, we would have a full day to rest, and we wouldn't miss any classes. Merlin, I sound like Cassie. Cassie and Melody studied much more than me and Skyler. But all four of us got pretty much the same grades. It drove those two girls crazy. Where is he? I had spent almost all of my free time trying to teach Skyler spells since I had read many books about defensive and offensive spells at home. "If he throws a spell at you and if you can't remember the shield spell, just dodge it, drop your wand and punch him." Cassie said.
"Wow. Thanks. It's so likely that I'm going to forget. I'm not gonna hurt him much. Just typical spells. That's all. And now, I understand how Dominic wanted this. He wants me dead." Skyler grumbled, gripping her wand with her hands.
"Oh please. I hardly think the git knew what a wizard's duel actually was." I said, believing my words 100%. If he actually means to kill her, I'll make sure to choke him with my bare hands.
We stopped in a spot under some trees when we heard screaming from behind us. Oh no. We slowly turned around. Werewolf. I grabbed Cassie's and Skyler's arms and ran forcing them to run. "Why are we running?!" Cassie yelled at me.
"Oh, I don't know...MAYBE BECAUSE THERE IS A WEREWOLF BEHIND US!" I yelled back at her.
"Keep running!" Skyler said. We ran and ran and ran until we ran right into a person. Well, more, I ran into a person. Dominic.
"Why the bloody hell do I always run into you?!" I said, frustrated.
"How am I supposed to know?" he answered back. Suddenly, a claw slashed Dominic in his face as blood trickled from his scratch. We turned to look straight at the werewolf, as Dominic ran to it and punched it in the muzzle.
IDIOT! You fight with magic! Not your bare hands! Too late. He was in for an angry rage from a werewolf. The werewolf snarled as it leaped onto him, slashing him all over. After a few seconds, Dominic laid motionless. Bloody hell. Literally. "Get him!" Skyler urged as I swiftly grabbed him by his robes as the werewolf was about to bite him. I am not letting anyone die or become a werewolf. Cassie yelled, "PROTEGO!" just as the werewolf was about to bite me and it was thrown back a few feet.
Then the three of us ran as fast as we could while carrying Dominic. Finally, we made it inside the Hospital Wing gasping for air. "What is the meaning of-" Madame Pomfrey started until she saw Dominic.
"Were...wolf. Claw….scratch. No….bites." I wheezed. Please don't be dead, please don't be dead, please don't be dead…
Madame Pomfrey flicked her wand and Dominic was levitated to the hospital bed. "You did good to bring him straight to me. He could've died. But, why in Merlin's name were the four of you outside in the first place?"
"Will he be okay?" Skyler asked, the genuine concern in her eyes catching me off guard.
"He'll be in tiptop shape by tomorrow afternoon. But I must ask, again, why were you outside." Madame Pomfrey asked, again, while putting potions in his mouth and making him swallow them. I had to give it to her, the woman could multitask well.
"We got lost and didn't realize what time it was," I lied before either Cassie or Skyler could even open their mouths. The two girls stared at me. Please don't ruin this. I something strange in my mind, as if there were another presence there. This woman is a Legilimens. And she's trying to Legilimenize me! I pushed her out easily. I was a natural Occlumens. I glared at the woman. "Stay out of my mind," I growled out. Skyler and Cassie looked confused.
"Go to the Headmaster. You are past curfew and were outside."
"Now, may I ask, what were you three-" Headmaster Dumbledore started.
"Four." I interrupted.
His strangely piercing blue eyes made me feel as though he could see right through me. "My apologies, Miss Banbohanam. What were you three girls and Mister Adalira doing after curfew, outside, no less."
"Dominic challenged Skyler to a wizard's duel." Cassie blurted out before I could say anything. I glared at her.
"Well then, Miss Adalira, please explain why you accepted." Dumbledore asked calmly. Wow. I can't tell if he's mad or not.
The three of us shared a look. We better tell him everything that happened.
