Dark Figures
Soren and Digger flew through the dark forest. It was a bit of an unnerving place really and Soren wanted to get out of here fast. "So . . . any idea how to find a unicorn?" Soren asked Digger.
Digger shrugged. "Call for one?"
Soren couldn't think of a better idea. "Unicorn! Can any unicorns hear us! We need to talk to you!"
There were hoof steps. Soren turned toward the noise. There was a unicorn alright. It looked just like a white horse, except with a horn on its head. "H-hello. You called?" she had a soft, shy voice.
"Yes." Soren flew closer to her. He felt a little awkward asking for some horn now that the unicorn was actually here. But they needed it. "I was wondering, if we could get some powder off your horn. It's a long story, but we need it to get home."
The unicorn looked at them a little doubtfully, then nodded. "Alright. Those talons of yours should be able to scrape off a little. Just a little mind you."
"Of course." Digger looked at Soren. "I'll do this. My talons are probably better made for it than yours." Soren nodded and Digger flew to the unicorn's horn. He had just scraped a little off when something hit him. He was thrown back into a tree and hit the ground with such force, he fell unconscious.
The unicorn backed away in fear. The hooded figure who'd hit Digger attacked her and started to drink her blood. Soren swooped at the hooded figure, shaking a little as he was scared. He clawed the figure. The figure hit Soren too. But Soren was more prepared and now the figure was wounded. He still hit the ground, but didn't fall unconscious. He moved over to Digger and dragged him away. He felt guilty for leaving the unicorn, but he had to save Digger. He set him down at the edge of the forest then went back in and, careful to stay out of sight, went back to where the unicorn had been. She was still there, but now she was dead with some of her blood lying around. Soren flinched. Then he remembered why he'd come here. He took some of her horn. "I'm sorry." He said to her. Then he flew back.
When he got back to where he'd left Digger he almost yeeped. Digger was no longer there. "Digger? Digger!" He looked around. That was when he noticed the hut near the forest. He flew over and peeked into one of the windows. The biggest Other he'd ever seen was there. And he had Digger. Soren swallowed. Well, at least he's safe. Soren knew he couldn't open a door so heavy, so he flew back toward Hogwarts. He'd get the others to help him get Digger.
