Chapter 9. Summer and Start of 2nd Year
Platform 9 and 3/4
Both girls walked towards the rest of Black Family. All of them greeted each other before going towards floo to go to their house. Getting into the Black manor, Sirius looked at his daughters and asked, "So any plans for summer?, The baby is expected to come soon so we won't be going anywhere this year."
Diana started thinking. They have a few things to do, first would be figuring out why there is smaller number of demons lately. Next they want to go and hunt a C-rank one. And Diana wanted to to try and figure out more about Greek mythology. "Yea, there are some things that we need to take care of, but beyond that just normal training."
Sirius and Emily nodded, they won't ask what they need to do as it only gives them headache. "Well dinner will be later today so for now you got free time."
Diana and Alya quickly made their way to training room. After securing it to be soundproof Alya asked,"So what we need to do?"
"Well, there is the case about smaller number of E ranks and we want to fight a C rank one. Plus I think it is high time that we figure out what is going on with Greek world. The monsters are alive but muggles and even most magicals can't see them. Then there are gods, we don't know if they are alive and we don't have any chance to find out about that. So for now we study every greek myth and information that we can get our hands on, we will figure out the rest later."
Alya nodded, a good plan. it is not normal for demons to just disappear like that. "Well let's get to work shall we?"
And thats is how the summer began. At first both girls only hunted demons to try and find if maybe some other hunters decided to kill them but they found nobody. Most of the demons that they encountered were D-classes and while not a challenge for the girls, some of the fights were still interesting when they decided to fight without some of their powers and with higher level of their gravity runes.
Already 3 weeks of summer passed and Diana was getting irritated. She understands that there is lesser number of C-class demons than D and E ranks but for fuck sake, Diana's and Alya's power alone should attract them. Currently they both were close to see that separates England and the rest of Europe. They were already out for 3 days straight and wanted to go back for now.
Just when Diana wanted to tell Alya to go back she sensed another rift opening, and this one was a lot more powerful. "Finally, I was thinking that they are getting scared."encountered" , turning to Alya she said, "Rift appeared close to our location, I will take care of it but stay on standby, If it is a High C rank it can be hard."
Alya nodded and disappeared from sight to hide somewhere. Diana sighed and quickly checked her status to see if everything is alright.

Yes it would be good to notice that all her perks from stats got upgraded after her stats reached 200 plus she bought one for all her perk points as it would help her is fast paced fight.
-Hawk's eyes - You gain the ability to see at even greater distances and follow movements easier
She only has it for about a month but it is still very useful, Dance of Blades no longer give her problem when she goes for precision and speed but she still can't go for more than 3 targets at once. Her skills didn't go up by much, well maybe expect cero which went up more than 20 lvls from spamming it like mad. Alya is about 5 lvls lower than her and she prefers more precision attacks but also have some heavy hitters.
Giving it a rest, diana sighed and started to flash step herself to the location of the rift. It was pretty small despite the power that it emitted and was located almost by the water. She flashed herself before it and waited for the demon to come out. If she is right then it will be her first fight against a demon who is maybe intelligent.
She didn't need to wait long as after a few seconds a being went out from the rift after which it closed. The first thing to notice was that the being was humanoid looking and looked like a only things that were making him different were the barbed tail, grey skin and spikes coming from his shoulders. Deciding that might as well use observe she thought,'observe'.

Zaraak is a Medium C class demon who worked hard to get his rank. Not much information is available about him.
EXP: 100000
Helpful as always, his stats are mostly better than hers but she got Alya for help if things go south. She wanted to speak the the demon and check if he is capable of speech but she heard the annoying ping.
New Quest!
Defeat Zaraak!
Rewards:
- New title
- 50000 EXP
- Skill EXP lvl. 5
Failure:
- Death
YES/NO
How she loves that system. It is like it wants her to die. She accepted the quest before swiping the window away. She looked back at the domon and spoke. "So a C class demon, what can I help you with today."
Zaraak narrowed his eyes at her, "Would you look at that a Huntress, never thought that I will be lucky enough to find one when I come here but look at that she came to me." He laughed, well it looks like there won't be much talking. "So little huntress are you ready to die?" He said making a demonic kata appear in his hand. It was about 2 ft and 5 in long and was grey in color.
"The question is, are you? "She spoke in low voice while making her daggers appear. They both stared at each other for a while before shooting forward, Zaraak was a little faster and Diana could use augmentation but she found out lately that if she uses it for more than even minute it gets painful. She guessed that because her stats are now a lot bigger than her body can't handle them being multiplied by 2 so it is her final weapon if she needs it.
Two fighters watched each other before rushing forward. They meet in a clash of weapons, Diana could feel his bigger strength and a little more speed. But she trained with her daggers for to long to let things like that defeat her. Avoiding a slash at her stomach she jumped into the air and spun around hitting Zaraak in the face with her boot.
The demon staggered a little but quickly helped himself with his tail to gain back his balance. Diana couldn't capitalize at that but in hopes to get him on defensive she upped her speed to maximum and tried to cut his arm with one dagger when the other went to block his sword. Unlucky for her his tail came to defence and pushed her back giving Zaraak a chance to overpower her second dagger and kick her back.
"I must say little huntress you are not bad but it is time to get serious," Zaraak smirked at her before Diana sensed big amount of magic gathering in his free hand. Getting ready to block it she pushed about 1k mana into her armor and prepared her dark wave. "Let me show you a bit of my true power."
At this moment a big amount of red lightning came out of his hand before it went into the air and then started falling down like the rain. Diana seeing that pushed 1k mana into dark wave creating a sphere of darkness around her. Good for her that this attack was lowly powered and her shield withstood it before firing a beam of dark energy back at Zaraak.
The demon looked surprised by it and because of that he couldn't dodge. Just when Diana though that her counter attack will hit, Zaraak waved his hand and a wall of pure lightning appeared before him stopping her attack.
"Huntress that can command darkness? Now this is interesting, but don't get your hopes up it won't help you." said amused demon. Diana thought that only villains in comic books describe everything that happened in fight. Well it looks like she was wrong. She shrugged and dismissed her daggers, it looks like they will fight long range for now.
Utilizing similar technique that Zaraak used she rose her one hand and emited a ball of dark energy which then exploded and chunks of darkness went all over the battlefield. The demon looked very amused but she knew that this will help her later on.
Finally deciding that he won't wait any longer he created the beings with lightning that looked like dogs which rushed her instantly. Diana also decided to stop playing around and quickly tossed two wind blades at the beasts destroying them. Then she created about 4 wind shredders that started ascending towards Zaraak. He Knew that his lightning attacks won't do much against wind so he decided to start dodging all the while sending more attacks at Diana.
Diana also started to dodge some attacks as Zarrak was quite good at quick casting them. She sometimes used upgraded shield charms that she and Alya created and while they could hold some weaker attacks, they broke fast against something stronger. They were created for fast reaction defence not against bigger scale attacks and both Diana and Alya practised so they could create them even a millisecond before the attack connect. There were no hand movements and words used to cast them, just a single thought and it was up. They are still working on other spells to work like that but it is still work in progress.
She quickly casted another two wind shredders but this time she didn't stop at that. No, she then prepared a lot of magic and used powerful firestorm which then merged with her wind attacks and became stronger.
The whole battlefield became a raging inferno of violet flames and Diana knew that she did hit him but she didn't get any text of showing the damage. Frowning she extended her senses and prepared herself for any surprise attack.
The fires finally died out in some areas and from one of them Diana could see a dome of pure lightning. When it died out, is showed Zaraak on one knee breathing heavily. He looked up at her and started laughing, "You almost got me with that one girl. Very powerful attack, any lower ranked demon then me would get reduced to ashes with it. But I will not let you kill me!"
Diana's eye twitched a little that he shielded her whole attack that one shots all E ranks and some weaker D ranks. And while it is not hard to do it take a shit load of mana from her as she is not just channelling normal amount of mana into firestorm, no she overpowers it with almost ten times it's cost. And she held it for almost 20 seconds. That's about 1/4 of her mana.
Not wasting anymore time she pointed her hand towards Zaraak and blackish ball of energy appeared on her finger before getting bigger. "Cero," she whispered and with that a black beam of energy went straight towards demon who could not dodge due to his position. Now Diana just hoped that at least a 2x critical hit will go in.
Critical 13800 x2 = 27600 DMG
Now that's what she is talking about, Cero is her only skill that does not gives her critical that multiply the dmg by 1000% and it is sad as it is her strongest skill. Despite that it has very big critical chance and it can multiply up to x5 which is still fucking good. But the x4 and x5 Dmg is more rare than a epic item drop so there is that.
In that moment she heard more laughing coming out from the cloud of smoke. "Yes, a very powerful attack even more then the last one. But let me show you why we demons of higher ranks than D are much stronger. With that he appeared before her and punched her straight in the face sending Diana back.
After hitting the ground and a few trees on the road she finally righted herself but in the same moment Zaraak appeared again and kicked her up in the air. Getting frustrated as she lost more than help her armor already she focused on fire and expelled it around her whole body creating a blast that knocked Zaraak who went after her, back.
Growling in anger Zarrak materialised his sword again appeared behind Diana with his sword already in motion. This time she was ready and now with her daggers in hands she blocked the sword with both of her weapons. Slightly surprised at the change in her he gave Diana chance to spun around, kick his word hand away and then quickly cut his arm with wer dagger which now was coated in wind. She chose wind to counter his lighting and it was a good choice as in the moment her attack connected there was a little spike of lightning in this place but wind overpowered it.
Diana not missing a beat duced and tried to slice his legs but he jumped up and teleported away. Zaraak quickly shot lightning bullets at Diana. Seeing that she again used dark wave, this time with daggers in her hand. Both attacks nullified themselves and demon dodged the counterattack from dark wave.
Diana decided that she might as well use more of her magic before again going close quarters. Creating a cero in each of her hand she quickly fired them at Zaraak who this time was prepared and escaped only with a little damage.
Zaraak knowing that his lightning magic is too weak for the girl, decided to use pure demonic power that all demons could use. When they take more energy, they are stronger as they are made from pure mana.
He started firing some projectiles at her and was happy to see that the huntress was now more hard pressed to block them. Smirking he channeled magic to his sword and used demons speed technique to appear next to her. Diana blocked the last attack that was send at her and sensed a attack coming from behind. She spun around and without waiting a second used dance of blades.
This time she was surprised to have all her attacks blocked. Jumping away she send a blast of fire at him to buy some time.
Zaraak didn't even let this bother him and teleported before Diana slicing her arm. Diana hissed in pain as even thought the attack didn't destroy her armor it still fucking hurt. Knowing that it is getting dangerous she flashed away and then used dance of blades again. Now she didn't focus on cutting her enemy but on disarming him. Her two first attacks got blocked again but when her third one got blocked she attacked again in the same place and made Zaraak stagger a bit. This made it possible for her to use her last attack to slash at his hand and make him drop his weapon.
Now weapon less she kicked him in the chest and could hear the breaking of some ribs. Not wasting even a second she fired a cero at the flying demon. Zaraak finally landed in a crater. Just when he wanted to summon his blade and flash away, from all of the dark spots that remained form Diana's earlier darkness skill came tentacles made of darkness and all of them stabbed him through.
Knowing that he couldn't even move he jus slumped and started chuckling lightly. "I see, so this was your plan all along huh? Clever, very clever. I can see that you are strong, a lot stronger than me. But remember Huntress that there is always someone stronger than you. I was merely an ant in comparison to others," he chuckled again before spitting some blood, "Well kill me now, at least I want to die on the battlefield not from bleeding out."
With that Diana flashed before him and cut his head off. "Good fight indeed, It was nice to meet you Zaraak" she said in low voice. She might not like demons but there is nothing wrong with giving them respect after the fight. She then heard a ping and quickly checked it out.
Quest Succes!
Defeat Zaraak!
Rewards:
- New title: Seasoned Hunter (E-class demons fear you, D-class are wary of you and C-class know of you)
- 50000 EXP
- Skill EXP lvl. 5
She grinned at her new title and equipped it, the skill disk will be nice and she still needs some exp for level up. Closing the boxes she went to see if there was some good loot. Really she has 300 luck and she doesn't even get good loot, is is sad. Besides money, one Infernal iron and surprisingly some HP potions (which started dropping lately.) there was also a necklace, using observe she saw.
Thunder necklace, Rare
+10% DMG when using lightning magic
Shrugging she put it into her inventory. She will give it to Alya later. Speaking of her best friend exactly in this moment she decided to flash step next to her with a grin on her face. "I must say that this guy was no pushover. He actually almost got your armor down. If he had some more powerful magic this could be a lot harder."
Dian smirked at her, "Yep, I am surprised that demon race also has something like our flash step. But from what I could see he was not so good at it. Well it will be fun to fight against someone who depend on this move." Then she got a thinking face that Alya thought looked cute, "and while his lighting magic was weaker than my wind one, it was still strong. And the there is the pure energy magic that he used. If there are demons stronger than him who can utilize it, our fights can be harder in the future."
Alya nodded, the demonic magic was strong, a lot stronger than his elemental one. It was good for Diana that he could not do anything better with it and was pretty slow with it. "Yes you are right... Anyway we need to go back, I want to sleep in my own bed."
Diana sighed and nodded in understanding, she also wanted to go back home. While thy like to hunt demons, They were doing it non stop for the past weeks and now they need to take some time to relax before going back to training and getting some EXP. Plus they still need to figure out why there is so small amount of weaker demons. There is no way that they would just run away because she is in England, she can understand the ones close to her but not in the whole country.
Sighing again she nodded again and placed a hand on Alya's shoulder before shadow traveling them close to Black manor.
Week later, St Mungo's
Two girls were sitting next to each other, using themselves for support. They were sitting here for some time and were quite annoyed and bored. And Alya and Diana were not annoyed because they need to wait for their sibling to be born, nope. What annoys them, is their father. Sirius Black was pacing back and forth in the hallway giving both girls a headache. Lucky for them, they were not the only people waiting with them.
After last Christmas Potter and Black family were again on friendly terms so Potters decided to be there for support like Sirius was always for them. Diana rose her head from Alya's head and looked at Sirius with annoyed glare, "Can you stop pacing, Everything will be alright, they have the best healers so you have nothing to worry about. And if you continue like that I will pound you into the wall."
Sirius immediately stopped in his track and paled, before rushing to one of the seats next to James who snickered at his friend antics. Lily looked amused at her daughter, it is nice to see that she at least inherited her temper.
Alya giggled at her father, "I knew that she would do that sooner or later. Really dad don't worry like Diana said, everything will be fine. I wonder what you were doing when I was being born." All chuckled at that, yeah they would love to see what Sirius was like when Alya as born.
Sirius looked at them embarrassed, "It is better that we don't talk about that, not one of my best days." Another round of snicker went around the hallway. Making Sirius even more embarrassed.
Then finally silence fell, and Diana went back to lying her head on Alya's who had hers on Diana's shoulder. Both girls closed their eyes and slowly fell asleep. Lily seeing that turned to Sirius and asked, "Are they always like that?"
Sirius looked at her with a smile, "Yes, since coming to our home those two are inseparable although they never called each other sisters."
Lily looked a little surprised but nodded nonetheless, "Do you think that they may not want to think about each other like sisters because there might be something else between them in the future?"
Sirius sighed and ran his hand through his hair, "Yes, I already talked with Emily about that and we both think that they are not interested in boys. Even though they are still young, both of them were always more mature. So it wouldn't surprise me if in two or three years they would became more than friends," he sighed again, "the only thing that we fear about is that wizarding Britain is not so tolerant towards the same sex couples so that is really the only problem."
Lily and James nodded at that, wizarding world was never tolerant with anything so it is no surprise that couples of the same sex would be not well received. "Will you talk with them about that or just leave them to figure this out alone?" James asked, he might not get back the father-daughter relationship but he still cares.\
Sirius shook his head, "No, for now we leave it to them. When they will get finally together, then we will talk with them." He got nods in response and silence fell again. After about 30 minutes a healer came out and told them that the baby is born and they can come in now.
They quickly woke up Diana and Alya and went in. They came in to the sight of tired Emily lying on a bed, holding a baby in her arms. All of them went towards the bed to get a look.
Emily seeing them smiled weakly and said, "It is a boy," Sirius smiled widely at that, finally there will be more males in Black manor.
James looked at them and asked, "Have you decided the name?" Sirius and Emily nodded.
"Yes, Regulus Sirius Black, the heir to Black family in the memory of my brother," All of the occupants of the room smiled, then Sirius looked at Lily and James and became serious, "I know that our relationship is still strained and it will still be some time before everything go back to how it used to be, but both I and Emily decided that it was not only your fault. With that we would like to ask you Lily and James to become godparents for our new son."
To say that Potters were shocked was and understatement because even if they were happy that they relationship with Sirius became better it was still far form how it was. So to be offered the position of godparents was shocking to say at least. They know that it was a chance for redemption and from looking at Diana and Alya both of them already knew that this would happen.
So without wasting more time both Potters accepted. They stayed for some time talking before they needed to go away as Emily and the baby needed rest.
Few weeks before September 1st
Both Potters and Blacks expect Emily and Regulus, were strolling down the Diagon Alley. Few days ago the got their Hogwarts letters with the list of new books for the year. While Diana and Alya already had most of the needed books, there was a change to Defence Against the Dark Arts books. Now when Sirius and Emily saw the list they both looked at their kids with amused expression.
When the girls tried to ask what is wrong, their parents only laughed at them. And that is why they are now walking towards the book shop. Diana didn't even tried to find any information about the books as she just didn't care. Both her and Alya already are post the Hogwarts level so there is nothing new that books for 2nd year students will have for them.
Still Alya tried to ask Daniel later if maybe his parents told him something,unfortunately for them the elder Potters were also highly amused so no information from them.
When they finally got to the books store, they saw a man in golden robes that made him look like a peacock trying to gather attention from everyone in the shop. Seeing their parents looking at them even more amused, they decided to get close and see what the commotion is all about. When they got close, the golden robed man went on the podium and started talking.
"Thank you, thank you. Now I would like to make a announcement. Like some of you already know, my books are on the list of Hogwarts needed. With that I would like to tell you all that me, Gilderoy Lockhart will be teaching this year in Hogwarts, school of witchcraft and wizardry," Alya, Diana and Daniel looked at each other and knew that this will be one of the worst teachers that they will ever meet. Unfortunately for them, Lockhart saw them or more importantly, saw Daniel and shouted, "Look at that Daniel Potter came to my books signing. Come on, let me give you the whole set of already signed books." With that Daniel was pushed to the front where he was dragged on the podium and forced to take some photos with the peacock.
Diana and Alya were giggling at the whole situation. Daniel was getting more and more embarrassed when he saw them and his parents. Nonetheless he quickly took the books and bolted towards his family, while giving a glare to the girls, "I hate you all."
Diana started laughing and grinned at her brother, "No, no my brother. You know that you love us. Besides you looked lovely with the peacock up there," She grinned even wider when she saw him getting even more red from embarrassment.
Lily seeing that her son will soon turn the color of her hair, decided to save him from more teasing, "Alright girls, enough of that. Let's get your books and get out of here. I can feel my brain cells dying from spending to much time in the same room as Lockhart."
Both families snickered at that. Alya and Diana decided to get this over quickly and went to buy their books.
After Getting out of the books store they went to get some more equipment for the year as they already used some of it. Then they went for some ice cream before saying goodbye to potters who needed to go back.
When only Alya, Diana and Sirius were left, Diana turned towards Sirius and spoke, "Dad we have something to do, we will come back in a hour bye," without even waiting for response form Sirius both girls ran away.
Sirius sighed, "Of course leave me alone like that, Why the world hate me," he mumbled under his nose. Well he better go back to manor before Emily get mad at him. Meh who is he trying to fool, she will still give him an earful for leaving girls like that.
Meanwhile with the girls
"Alright so where are we going, you did not really tell me that." Said Alya who was dragged through the alley.
Diana grinned at her, "Well I think that it would be nice to get a familiar and while there is nothing interesting in Diagon, there might me something in Knockturn." And that is the truth, Diagon alley shop with animals don't have anything special and Diana could feel something coming from the Knockturn so might as see what is it all about.
They turned to go into the Knockturn and willed their magic to create black cloaks for them. Putting their hood on Diana followed the weak tingle of magic that she could sense.
They walked for about 5 minutes when Diana finally stopped before one of the shops. They couldn't find any name but still Diana opened the door and Alya followed behind her.
When the door opened there was a bell sound above them. The shop was dark, but with their night vision the girls could see some cages with animals or eggs. They didn't got much time to watch the shop as few seconds later a older man came from a back room. He had a sneer on his face and wore rugged clothes. He really got the unfriendly look down.
"What do you want brats, I don't have time for you," he snarled at them and turned back to leave. Unfortunately for him in this moment Diana decided that she don't have patience for this and released some of her magic. The shopkeeper gasped and turned around, to see a glare directed at him, "Listen here old man, I don't have patience for your grumbling. We are here for some rare animals or eggs that you have, now can you help us with that?"
The old man not wanting to anger her anymore quickly nodded, "Yes I will, now come with me, if you want rare animals you won't find them on the front." With that he took them to the back room where there were even more cages and eggs. But this was not what Diana wanted so she turned Alya and rose an eyebrow.
"Do you feel anything because I lost the magic signal," Alya closed her eyes and extended her senses, while she is not as good as Diana she can still sense things in close range.
After a while she opened her eyes and nodded,"Yep, there is something in the back," with that they walked to the back of the room and found on a shelf a dark yellow egg that was half the size of their heads. Alya turned to the old man and asked pointing at the egg, "What is it?"
The shopkeeper looked at the egg and sighed, "Not a clue, bought it from some shady guy who said that it is some rare egg. He didn't want much so I took it. It was almost 6 years ago and the egg didn't hatch yet so I just moved it in the back. You want to buy it?"
Diana walked closer to Alya and whispered, "You feel some connection with it?"
Alya nodded, "Yeah, it is nothing big but I can feel it, so might as well buy it and see what comes out of it."
Diana then turned back to take old man, "Yes we will take it how much?" The old man let them take it for 10 galleons as he had no idea what it is and he felt a little scared of the girls.
Diana and Alya walked out of the shop towards Diagon, on their way back they went to some shops to check if there are some books that may interest them but found nothing.
Without nothing else to do Diana shadow traveled them back to home.
September 1st, Platform 9 and 3/4
It was time to go back to Hogwarts, while Alya and Diana had pretty busy holidays, they still had some time to relax and even spend some time with their new sibling. Besides that both girls still trained, farmed some dungeons for EXP and tried to create new attacks. Yeah not much success with the last one but hey they still tried.
Apart from that Diana and Alya tried to find the reason for the lower demon rate and the only thing that they got was a single sentence form one of dying Low C-class, "Nothing is as it seems," not much help but at least something. They tried to get more C class demons but most of them were low levels and didn't tell them a thing. One time they spotted a low B-class demon and Diana wisely ran away from him. They are still not able to defeat High C rank one when they are not fighting together. Those are just faster than them and can spam magic like a madman.
Then there is the thing that since Diana got above 80 lvl in meditation there is something in the back of her mind that she can sense. It is getting irritating as Diana can't do anything about it.
Alya still is some levels away form 80 lvl meditation and she doesn't feel anything. So with that in mind Diana started focusing on leveling meditation. It should take her a at least a few months to get to lvl 90 as leveling it now takes a lot of time.
Besides all of that both girls tried to find something about the egg that they bought. They didn't find shit about it. So the only thing left is to wait. Akya whose magic is responding to the egg is sometimes feeding it her magic so it may speed up the hatching. For now they created special bad that carry the egg so it is always with them.
Now though they are seated in a compartment and waiting for the train to start moving. They already blocked the doors and will only allow in Daniel who will most likely come to at least say hello.
They were not wrong as 2 hours into the travel there was a knock on the door and Diana quickly removed the locking spell. Daniel came in and greeted the girls. Sitting down on the opposite side he spoke, "Well I came to talk about the training, we all know that you both are a lot more advanced than even you two show."
Diana nodded and smiled at her brother, "Yes that is the truth and you need to know that we won't be teaching you only spells and dueling." Then she smirked evilly and in this moment Daniel thought that maybe asking them for training was not so good idea, "No dear brother, we will teach you how to fight."
Daniel now paled at her tone, "Can I change my decision now?"
Alya and Diana grinned at him, "Nope," they spoke at the same time before becoming serious again, "now though you need to remember that we will expect you to follow our rules and do what we tell you to do, understand?" a nod, "Good we will give you information when we will meet after the first week. Now that we have this figured out, you can tell us if something interesting happened."
Daniel looked thoughtful for a moment before nodding, "I have one interesting thing to tell. Before we went to floo to platform a house elf appeared in my room telling me that I can't go to Hogwarts. And let me tell that he didn't look good. His masters must not be too good."
Both girls got intrigued by that and Alya couldn't kelp but ask, "Did he tell you why you can't go?"
"The only thing he said before poping out was 'Bad things will happen at Hogwarts' and that's all," Daniel looked confused, while his last year proved that Hogwarts is not so safe after all. There is still question why he would only warn him and not some teachers.
"Okay, so maybe this year won't be too boring after all," Diana declared while grinning.
With that Daniel stood up and walked out from their compartment. After that their ride went silently with Alya and Diana leaning at each other.
When they finally got out of the train, this time they took carriage which were pulled by horse like black creatures with wings. They were more bony, had dragon like head and leathery wings. The girls knew from the first look that those creatures were called thestrals. Magical creatures that can only be seen by those who saw death. Diana and Alya saw a lot of demons dying and if it wasn't enough they saw Quirrell die last year.
The carriage took them straight to Hogwarts were they were told to sit down at their house tables. Half an hour later the sorting was done but Diana could sense something worn in the Great Hall. Turning to Alya she asked, "Do you sense it?"
Alya nodded, "Yeah there is something really dark here, something that should never be created."
Diana silently agreed with her. Whatever it is thy need to get rid of it before it causes some problems. Remembering what Daniel said about the elf, she couldn't help but thinks if he was referring to this.
Sighing Diana returned to her food but in the same moment goth her and Alya got 3 pings. Two were about the same quests like year ago, so 1st place and the cup but the 3rd one was new quest.
