Chapter 7
Truth
Morning was near; birds could be heard chirping within the trees and the folk of Hogsmeade were already beginning their day. No one paid any attention to the old drafty shack, it wasn't part of their routine, and it wasn't part of their town. They only thing that indicated that it was even there were the bone chilling howls and terrifying screams that could be heard coming form within its walls. No one knew there were two young boys inside, one a vampire, and the other a werewolf.
Caleb's head throbbed as he woke up, he ached all over from head to toe, and he couldn't even remember what had happened the night before. He quickly grabbed the spare clothes that Madame Promphrey had sent him and changed into them. He was about to leave when he noticed a figure crumpled up in the corner of the room. He cautiously approached, and then suddenly his memory came back to him.
The boy, he had come in and I attacked him! Caleb thought suddenly. I tried to kill him!
"I only hope I didn't bite him" Caleb said out loud. He took a closer look at the boy, dark hair pale skin.... it was Kar....that weird boy we met on the Hogwarts Express. Why did he come here? Caleb pushed the boy over so that he was lying on his back. He scanned Kar's body for bite marks; the only serious damage was a claw marks running down his chest, and a scratch across his left arm. The blood had dried, but it would need stitching. Caleb sighed; if he wasn't expelled for this he was sure to get a year's detention.
Caleb knew he had to get Kar out of here, but he doubted he could carry him, so he decided to get help from a teacher; he was about to turn and leave when he heard a groan from Kar. Caleb hesitantly turned around, and saw that Kar was on sitting cross legged rubbing his arm. Kar looked up to see Caleb.
"What are you doing here?" he hissed.
"I...um...was going....to get....someone to help you...you look uh....pretty beat up..." Caleb stammered, for some reason Kar was even more frightening when he was injured.
"I don't need any help...I can walk by myself." Kar grabbed onto a window ledge and pulled him self up, he visibly winced in pain but he continued to stand. He took small steps until he was walking almost normally.
Caleb led the way out of the shack, and through the hole in the Whomping Willow, only to meet Madame Promphrey.
"My my!" She exclaimed. "I see we had quite an incident here! Come with me boys!" They followed her to the hospital wing where she tended to their wounds, she announced that Kar's injuries were pretty bad, so she was going to keep him for a dayso the wounds could heal; magic really wasn't an option for werewolf attack wounds.
Madame Promphrey told Caleb she had told Dumbledoor about the accident and Dumbledoor hadrevelead to Kar that Caleb was a werewolf, Caleb winced when he heard it, hehoped Kar wouldn't tell anybody. Caleb left the office feeling sick to his stomach from what the had done to Kar, but then again Kar had barged in on him, if he had never entered the shrieking shack none of this would have ever happened.... but one thing was still on Caleb's mind.... How did Kar get out of the Castle? It was locked to all students, it seemed impossible that anyone could have escaped.
Caleb arrived in the Gryffindor Tower just in time to go back down for breakfast.
"Caleb! Hey Caleb! Where were you last night? You never came back from the hospital wing!" Caleb turned to see Akmed coming down the stairs of the boy's dorm.
"Um, Madame Promphrey wanted be to stay the night incase I uhhhh.....got another stomach ache..."
"Oh..." Akmed smiled. "Well you missed a great History class with that Ms. Granger! We learned about that Harry Potter kid! Well, sort of we were supposed to learn about the witch revolution, but someone raised their hand and asked if she was friends with Harry Potter, and then she started telling us all these cool stories about their adventures, it was really awesome!" Akmed laughed, he could talk about a mile a minute.
As Akmed and Caleb walked down to breakfast Ryoku caught up with them, she smiled wildly and asked them
"Notice anything different?" she beamed and faced them.
"Err, you got a hair cut?" Akmed asked.
"No stupid! I got my cartilage pierced!" She pointed to her upper ear, where a pink diamond earring sparkled in the sunlight.
"Looks cool." Caleb half-smiled.
"Yeah, my brother has like six earrings on each ear, my dad practically killed him when he got them pierced." Akmed laughed.
"Well my aunt Jemina won't care, Tulip pierced it for me, she already pierced Alu and Irene's ears too!"
(Silverwolves: incase you don't remember all the people I introduced in chapter 5 here is a review: There were a total of eleven new Gryffindors, six were boys and five were girls. The boys included, Kar, Caleb and Akmed, a small red head named Lucas Winter, a chubby boy with buck teeth named Terrance Longbottom, and a handsome young boy with shaggy blonde hair and sparkly blue eyes, his name was Zachariah Vanderbolt. The girls included Ryoku, two twins with honey colored hair named Daffodil and Tulip Wispdeon, Alu Storm a pretty girl with black hair and violet eyes, Irene Cloverdale, a short African-American girl with dark brown hair, and Madison McGregor a plump girl with glasses and pigtails.)
The three made there way down to breakfast and took a seat next to Zach Vanderbolt, Akmed and he both shared an interest in Quiddich, and were planning to try out for the team next year; as they talked excitedly about there favorite teams Ryoku started up a conversation with Alu about Derek Graham; the cute Ravenclaw 4th year. Caleb was left to think about last night's events, he thought miserably about the consciences of his actions.
After classes were over the students retreated to their dorms, Caleb was up late finishing his essay on the witch revolution. He nearly jumped out of the seat when someone else entered the room; it was Kar.
Kar turned to see if anyone else was in the room, then he looked at Caleb, his pale blue eyes suddenly seemed more human.
"You're the only one up?" he asked, his eyes narrowing.
"Y-yes" Caleb stammered.
"Good, Dumbledoor talked to me and told me what you were, I already knew though, I smelt it on you when I saw you in the shack, he also wanted me to tell you the reason I was out there in the middle of the night...." Kar turned again to make sure they were the only ones in the room, he lowered his voice "It's because... I'm a vampire, I was out hunting.... and if you tell anyone I will personally make sure you die a slow and terrible death." He started to walk away but the looked back at Caleb and said, "I won't tell any one about you being a werewolf is you don't tell anyone about me being a vampire...." and with that he disappeared into the boy's dorms.
Caleb let out a breath he hadn't realized he had been holding. He couldn't believe what Kar had just said, but then again vampirism definitely suited Kar. Caleb went back to his homework; I won't tell he said....he had no intention of dying slowly and painfully.
