Chapter 14
The Evil Mind of Alu Storm
Kar almost felt happy the day of his trial.
Almost.
He had woken up shivering madly, even taking a semi-hot shower didn't help, he continued to shiver, and wishing that he could wake up and realize everything was just a dream.
After his showered he looked in the mirror; he had never really paid much attention to his appearance, he wished he could just look normal for once, but no such luck. He looked at the claw marks running down his chest, from where Caleb had scratched him, he would probably have that scar for life.
"Stupid wolf..." He mumbled under his breath.
Kar dressed slowly, putting on a long sleeved white collared shirt, and a pair of black slacks.
"I look like an ass..." he told himself. But, he had to look at least partially sane, and presentable. Even if it meant dressing like a muggle.
He sat down on his bed, running his hands through his hair due to the fact that he didn't have a hair brush. "Damn, I wish I could cut this..." Kar huffed, then curled up onto his bed again, shivering, waiting, hoping, starving, going insane...
Ryoku came in without knocking, followed by the others.
I must look absolutely pathetic... Kar mused, considering he was on his bed, curled up into the fetal position shivering...
"What's wrong?" Ryoku asked, sitting down besides him. Her expression showed worry, confusion, and pain.
What's wrong? What's wrong? I'll tell you what's wrong, I'm about to go to court, where I could possibly be sentenced to go to Azkaban for God knows how long...
Ryoku gingerly touched his back.
"Nothing." Kar heaved, uncurling himself and sitting up. "Just cold."
"You look really pale." Ryoku looked at him intensely.
"Yeah, more so then usual." Akmed commented.
Kar just glared at him.
Alu was still shaken form the night before, she wanted to comfort Kar, but she didn't know what she could say that wouldn't be a lie.
Ryoku felt Kar's forehead. "You have a fever too, are you sick, can vampires catch colds?"
"Probably, I'll be fine, it's just nerves, can we go, can we get this over with, I want to get this over with. Please. " Kar stood, Walter, the hotel manager, who had been waiting in the doorway, led the way out of the room, down the staircase and out the door into the bright sunshine.
Outside was a field surrounding the cabin, and then a forest surrounding the field.
As soon as Kar stepped out of the door he flung his hands up over his face and hissed, causing everyone to stare at him.
You couldn't blame him, the poor guy had just been in solitary isolation for two weeks; he had a right to act weird.
"It's okay..." Ryoku patted his back after he had calmed down. "The carriage should be here soon..."
"Carriage?" Kar asked, feeling sick, although he didn't admit it, he despised all modes of transportation besides walking and running.
"Yeah, saves the trouble of hitching a muggle car." Someone said form behind them.
It was Hermione, and her fiancé Harry Potter himself.
They all had been introduced to Harry Potter a few days after they arrived, but Kar hadn't met him yet, Kar really didn't care much if he met him or not.
Harry could have been described as still thin, taller, with a mop of still messy black hair, and a pair of bright green eyes looking at them from beneath a pair of thin glasses.
And of course the famous lightning bolt scar.
Harry, as if he sensed Kar's predicament, didn't offer his hand, but instead nodded and smiled, Hermione hadn't told him everything, but he knew enough to keep his mouth shut.
"Are you guys coming to the trial?" Akmed asked curiously.
"No, we just came to see you off, but I would like to go." Harry shrugged.
"Yes, I wish you luck Kar." Hermione glanced at Kar, who was busy starring down an evil moth that was planning world domination while hiding in the grass. (Silverwolves: Where did that come from?)
Just then the carriages arrived. But not in the way that was expected, they came from the sky, each being driven by winged white horse.
"Wait why are there two?" Asked Alu.
"Because." Hermione answered. "Kar is going to his trial and you are going back to Hogwarts.
"You mean we can't come?" Ryoku was panicking now, if they couldn't come that meant no saving Kar... and then...
"I'm not going!" Ryoku shouted. "I'm going with Kar! You can't stop me!"
"No." Alu grabbed Ryoku's shoulder. "Come on, we're going back to Hogwarts."
"What why?" Asked Akmed, starring at Alu like she was insane.
Caleb caught on to Alu's plan. "Just do what she says guys, we'll tell you when we get back."
Ryoku and Akmed starred at their two friends.
They said goodbye to Kar, and then got into their carriages back to Hogwarts.
Ryoku looked at Alu, who was smiling...
Evilly?
What was she planning?
(Silverwolves: Sorry this one is so short, sorry I haven't updated in a LoOoOoOng time...sorry, sorry, sorry... Oh, and sorry the wolves cant talk to you, I'm too lazy to wake them up from their nappies.)
