"What's wrong?" asked Tonks.
"Please leave alone" said the boy.
"What's causing all this blood? He hit you but you wouldn't be bleeding, and even if you were, it would have stopped by now".
"Well, it would have if you'd give me some privacy".
"Tsilk, you can tell me."
"Can I?"
"I think I know what you have."
"What is it then?"
"You have magic piercing in another skin so, when Lupin punched you, it moved the piercing which causes the bleeding, am-I right?"
Tsilk looked away as an answer.
"Where's you piercing?"
"Where it's bleeding, my eyebrow"
"You need to change back to that skin and take it off until it stops bleeding and than we'll see what to do"
"I can do that by myself, you can go."
"I'm not, I want to be sure this is done properly, if it's not, it might get worse".
Tuck gave Tsilk a convincing look. Convincing enough for him to change form.
"I'll do it", said Tonks "don't move".
Tuck slowly took the ring out of his eyebrow and put it in his hand. She then took out a potion from her pocket and applied it on Tsilk's eyebrow. She then got up and opened the door.
"Well, you've changed", said the Headmaster.
Tsilk was now a teenager with light brown hair touching the bottom of his ears. He was much cuter than his last form. He had the black pearl earring on his left ear. But this wasn't his only piercing. There was silver ring at the right (from Dumbledore's view) of Tsilk's lower lip.
"What was it Tonks?" asked the Headmaster.
"Nothing, just an eyebrow silver ring" said the Auror.
Remus Lupin had gone downstairs.
"You know, what you did wasn't very wise, you should take off your piercings before you change skins" said the other metamorphmagus.
Tsilk stared at the ring in his hand.
"What wrong?" asked the professor McGonagall.
"Oh? I'm sorry I didn't think you were talking to me", said Tsilk, "nothing…Mrs.?"
Tonks turned around surprised by what the thief called her.
"Yes?" said the Auror.
"Thank you" said Tsilk.
His voice softer than the other one.
"Tsilk, can I have the ring please?" the Auror.
"Sure…"
Tsilk handed it to Tonks.
"Headmaster, could I talk to you in private?" asked Tonks.
"Of course, everyone, could you please go with the others, downstairs?" asked Albus Dumbledore.
Everyone got downstairs, Severus Snape having a firm grip on Tsilk's arm.
"Dumbledore, this child is troubled. Those rings, they aren't regular ones. I saw them before but I can't remember where. And for the curse, he must have gotten many times, it's crazy, nobody would be able to stand...I think Tsilk hides a lot more than just his real appearance", said Tonks.
"I agree, that's why he's going to Hogwarts", said Dumbledore, "we will be able to discover things about him, and maybe even help him. Anything is possible at Hogwards…And, about his appearance; you don't think it's his real one?"
"Well he seems very comfortable with it, but no, it's not his real, but he must have stayed that way a long time."
There was a long pause.
"What about his strength? The boy literally knocked down Remus Lupin. And best of all, he dodged all of his attacks, that's fascinating!" said Tonks.
"It quite is, but Tuck, I would like you to tell me all you know about how I could recognize what his real form?"
"You can't"
Meanwhile downstairs,
You could see at one side of the room Remus Lupin with a bag filled with ice on his head. On the other side, his daughter, C.G., and the other teenagers, playing thumb wrestle. Maudy Madeye was in between closely watching Stephan's every move. Mrs.Weasley was in the kitchen cooking something. Mr.Weasley had joined his wife. The professor McGonagall walked toward the werewolf and started to help him heal. And there was the professor Snape still having to heavy grip on Tsilk's thin arm. Once they got down, the room's feeling changed.
"Do you intend in the near future to let my arm go?" asked the thief.
"Actually, no" said the professor.
"I didn't think so"
"Then why did you ask?"
"Why wouldn't I have?"
The professor looked straight into the boy's green eyes. He then looked away. Tsilk's glare was too much for the teacher.
"What did you do with Tsilk?" asked C.G.
"C.G., I didn't think you could get any worse…" said Stephan.
"HEY! What's that suppose to mean! If you're so smart, then tell me where he is, I'm waiting!".
"He escaped, that's why they are all downstairs".
"Really?"
"Hey, Stephan, I think you have something that belongs to me" said Tsilk.
"No way, why did you make yourself all young?" asked C.G.
"Dear, do you know how old you 'friend' is?" asked Severus Snape.
"Don't you 'dear' my daughter!" said the werewolf.
"Stephan, he's 16 why?"
"I wasn't talking about him, I was talking about Tsilk"
"Oh, around 35" said the blond girl.
"Well, you guessed wrong, he's 15" said the teacher.
All of the thumb wrestlers were surprised.
Dumbledore walked down the stairs with Tonks closely following him.
"Professor McGonagall, Professor Snape, I would like you to welcome some new students: Stephan Black, C.G. Lupin and Tsilk." Said the Headmaster.
"Yeah! More Gryffindors!!!" said Ginny.
"Hey, who says I'm going to be a Gryffondor?" said C.G.
"Yeah, she's going to be a Hufflepuff!" said Stephan.
"Oh yeah? Well I'm guessing you're going to be a Ravenclaw!"
"Am not!"
"Are too!"
"Am not!"
"Are too!"
The two friends continued this for some time
"And THEY are helping you?" asked Severus Snape, "how are they of any help?".
"You'll understand", said Tsilk.
"Everyone, tomorrow, you will go to Diagon Alley. And, you will be in Hogwarts a week earlier than the other students, is that a problem for anyone?" asked Dumbledore.
"I don't plan on going to Hogwarts" said Tsilk.
"Well, I guess you don't have much of a choice now do you?" said the potion master.
