I stared in horror at the figure above me. The long red hair and black coat standing out against the brown brick walls of Hogwarts. "R-Reno!" I gasped and scrambled into an upright standing position. "Hey Blondie; I see you found me in the great hall; and someone figured I was here. Smart of them, but hey! I found you; and there's no one to hear you scream. Everyone's at breakfast and I just LOVE that scared look you have." I stared in horror at my living nightmare that was standing right in front of me! ME! My brain was screaming at me to run and scream but my body wasn't attached. The red head in front of me cocked his head to the side and smirked. "Looking forward to it as well then?" My mouth opened to say something but my terror stopped my words and all I could do was gape like a fish. Reno began walking towards me and I stood frozen to the spot. I stared at him in utter shock and terror before something clicked that I was supposed to be running; but by that stage it was a bit too late. Reno had me slammed up against the wall and was attacking my neck with his teeth again. I cried out at one particularly hard bite as I squirmed. "Stop moving. You're making it harder for me to restrain myself from fucking you to early." He murmured against my neck. I stopped for a moment and gasped as he began undoing my robes. "HELL NO!!!" I screamed before pushing him away from me with a blast of magic from the hand that was clutching the front of his clothes. The red head landed on his back before jumping up and glaring at me. "Alright…that does it. You are SOOO dead!" he warned before I bolted down the corridor the way I'd come before falling. Something ahead of me went BANG and part of the rock on the wall came on top of me; making me scream as I covered my head and halted for a moment, waiting for the dust to clear. In that time I'd stopped, Reno had caught up with me again and proceeded quickly to have his tongue plundering through my mouth. My eyes opened wide and I kneed him between the legs. He let out a soft 'oof' before loosing his grip just enough so I could escape. I ran down the corridor before turning a sharp left and then a right. There was a sharp whizzing sound above my head and the corner I was about to turn exploded, making me run straight ahead instead. I took another route to the stairway; managing to loose him for a couple of seconds as I run up a set of stairs and along the corridor. Seconds later he'd caught up to me again. I plundered through Hogwarts with a crazy red head on my tail, (not that I actually HAD a tail) making me turn corners that I didn't want to when the walls exploded beside me. I ran down the stairs, 3 at a time as they turned and didn't look behind me as a portrait beside me burst into flames and I heard screaming from the people in it and around it. Suddenly, the ground at my feet exploded upwards and sent me flying down the stairs. I hit the ground with aloud "Oof" and lay there, trying to catch my breath before getting up again. Reno caught up to me again and picked me up by my throat before slamming me against the wall. "That was a dirty little trick." He announced darkly, and then decided to try and choke me. I cried out in vain as he began biting my neck again, this time hard enough to draw blood. "S-STOP!!" I cried, tears running down my cheeks. I was barely aware of the screaming from the paintings and the flames running over the walls, catching the frames and beginning to burn the paintings. I didn't notice Reno beginning to undress me or that he was biting me hard enough to make me bleed again around my neck and shoulders. My vision was going black at the edges and I needed air. I tried screaming but no sound came out. My vision was almost entirely gone before my magic decided to try and save itself by blasting whatever the threat was, away from me. I sunk to the ground and breathed deeply; the black at the edges of my vision wavering slightly but halting as I breathed in air.
We both lay there for a few minutes; me watching him for a movement as I tried to recover for as long as possible. I saw a twitch and a barely audible groan from the lump on the ground before a hand moved to the red head of hair. I stood up shakily and nearly collapsed from the nausea that rushed through me as I began to move. I walked a few steps at first, keeping a good hand on the wall at all times, making sure I didn't fall over. The black began to creep again; I took some deep breaths before hearing someone get to their feet and growl in my direction. I took to my heels as I knew exactly who it was. There was a furious yell as I ran down the stairs to the main foyer. I barely heard the footsteps behind me as the blood pumped through my ears and I fell down some more stairs. Getting up as quickly as I could, I felt the ground shudder as I ran from that spot as quickly as possible before turning and stumbling through the great hall doors and stumbling towards the one person I could sense. "Roxas…" I heard a voice scream, but I could barely hear it as I sank to my knees. The blackness around me closing fully; the last thing I felt was a warm body pressing against mine.
(Demyx's POV)
I sighed and walked half heartedly into the Great Hall again. I'd chased after Roxas when he ran but lost him as he sprinted through the corridors. Roxas…where are you? I asked myself. Sitting down to eat again, I gave the others a worried look. Professor McGonagall had disappeared from the main table with a few other teachers, and Dumbledore looked at me worried. I shook my head and he made a small gesture of acknowledgement. Fred and George subsided their conversation quickly and Fred proceeded to sling an arm around my neck for reassurance. "I wouldn't worry mate" Fred began
"He's a tough lad."
"He'll be alright." I giggled slightly but I still couldn't get rid of the dreaded feeling that had settled in the pit of my stomach. We sat there eating for another 5 minutes in silence, the rest of the hall chatting loudly about what happened and other things I couldn't hear. "Find him?" Ron asked, settling beside me and leaning against the table. I looked up to find Hermione and Harry sitting beside George on the other side of the table. I shook my head and continued eating. I'll find him later…once he's calmed down a bit I thought and took another bite of some toast I was eating.
There was a loud bang just outside the great hall that sent the entire school quiet. I stood up just as the doors opened and Roxas came stumbling inside; blood running down his neck and looking like he was about to faint. "ROXAS!!!!!!" I screamed and sprinted towards him as quickly as possible. As he collapsed I caught him and just managed to get out of the way as the floor beneath us exploded. There were a few screams as the dust cleared. I looked up as soon as I could see my hand in front of me. Reno was standing there looking annoyed. My eyes opened wide and I stood up with Roxas, holding him protectively. "Reno!" I hissed; my eyes flashing angrily. "What the hell did you DO to him?!" I yelled as Dumbledore and a few other teachers stood up. I began backing up towards where the red headed family was sitting at the table. Reno began advancing on the two at the same pace and began talking. "What did I do to him? I merely scared the shit out of the little bugger and chased him through the castle, while trying to rape him at the same time of course." There were a few outraged cries from people who were listening and liked Roxas; Harry, Hermione and Ron being a part of them. "It was great fun until the little bugger knocked me unconscious." I smirked at him and couldn't help but fell proud of Roxas. He sent me the most murderous glare at that. "You think it's funny? Punk!" he yelled and pulled out an electric rod from his belt. I stopped for a second before swearing under my breath. Of course it HAD to be electricity and I just HAD to be water. Water conducts electricity, so of course I couldn't attack him. I felt some robes flutter past me and before I knew it, professor Dumbledore was standing in front of us protectively. "I'm going to have to ask you to leave" he said, his tone cool and his wand pointed at the stranger. Reno's face contorted from anger to fear and he stopped in his tracks. He growled. "Of course you're going to hide behind HIM." he spat before taking a step backwards when a spell began to linger on the tip of the wand. "You can leave now." Dumbledore repeated in a dangerous tone. "I think so too." He growled before glaring at me behind him. "I'll find you again. Don't you worry." Pressing a button on his belt, he turned and ran from the room.
I sighed and looked down at Roxas who was still unconscious. Dumbledore settled in front of us and cast a spell at him. His eyes fluttered open and he sat up quickly after a few seconds. "Where's Reno?!" he yelled in a panic. I pulled him close and began to explain what happened. "Let's get out of here." Dumbledore interrupted and helped us both to our feet. "Everyone! Finish breakfast and then head to your first classes please. Thankyou!" I looked at him confused as Roxas and I walked with Dumbledore to his office.
We reached the office and Roxas sat down in his chair shakily. I began explaining to him what happened again. He took it all in and still looked a bit shaky. Dumbledore sat down when I'd finished and placed his hands on his desk. "I believe it is time you told me what happened before you came here." I nodded and began explaining. About halfway through; a house elf turned up with some hot chocolate. "It's rather nice. Try it." I smiled at the house elf and noticed Roxas give it a strange look. I smothered a giggle. He hadn't seen them before obviously. I continued explaining, Roxas adding in a few sentences and telling me off for over exaggerating every once in a while. Eventually we finished the explanation and he sat back in his chair with hands stroking his white beard every now and again. We sat there for about 5 minutes before he spoke up. "Roxas…how come you didn't use your weapons?" He blinked. "Um…to tell the truth, it honestly never occurred to me to use them…"
I smiled and leaned back into the chair. That's Roxas all right.
"Demyx; why don't you get back to class and I'll take Roxas up to get healed. Then he can have the day off school. Trauma is a bit terrifying sometimes." I nodded before getting up and giving him a hug and leaving. I ran back to the Gryffindor common room; getting my stuff for class and running to transfiguration. What I didn't know, was that there was a surprise awaiting me.
Yeah...Reno turns up and Roxas gets hurt...AGAIN!
DX
I feel bad about it though. ;3;
