(First to comment on the answer gets a cookie.)
September 25th, 1991
Neville woke up on his own, which was peculiar. Juno usually came up with a crazy or outlandishly loud way to wake us up. Shrugging, Neville got up to take a shower, not noticing the light was on until he opened the door. What he saw stopped him in his tracks.
Juno was in the middle of a shower. He was usually done before any of them was awake. He saw many scars covering his body, with the most prevalent one being the word FREAK carved into his back. Below that, he saw a weird looking tattoo that was moving.
In the split second that it took Neville to process this, Juno whipped around, growled out "GET OUT!" before Neville was violently blown back sliding against the floor of the dorm room. The door to the showers/bathroom slammed shut with a mighty bang, startling the sleeping boys still in the room.
"Whaz Juno doin now?" Said the still half asleep Ron.
Before Neville could say anything, Juno stormed in, fully clothed and still wet hair, grabbed Neville by his collared and lifted him into the air.
"I don't care if I still owe you a favor, if you say anything to anyone about what you saw, I will make you wish you hadn't!" As Juno was saying this to him, Neville noticed Juno's hair was steaming. Juno saw Neville staring. He took a deep breathe in and out and let go of him. As Juno left the room, the last thing Neville saw of him, was his completely dry hair.
Neville didn't see Juno except for classes until on the way to lunch. It was awkward between them as they walked to lunch, which Hermione noticed. It wasn't until they were on the first floor landing that Juno began to cough. He covered his mouth his his hand. When he pulled his hand away, there was blood. "Oh no." Juno stumbled down the stairs. Neville and Hermione raced down the stairs and helped Juno up from where he had fallen. He was growing pale and very sickly.
"We need to get him to the infirmary!" Hermione said. "No! Get me to the great hall. I need Flitwick." Juno said back. Neville made a decision and helped Juno to the great hall. When they bursted into the hall, Juno was looking gray, which was scaring some of the students.
"Apprentice Flitwick! I need help!" Juno said in goblin. When he said this, Flitwick and Dumbledore rushed to his side, Flitwick because of his former title being called, Dumbledore because a student said he needed help.
"Lord war, what happened?"
"Blood decay ritual… I need you to use a blood boil… curse quick."
"I cannot let that happen, you need a doctor."
"No… time… please…"
"BOIL THY BLOOD!" Flitwick said, thrusting his hand out, sending the goblin spell out. It hit Juno in the chest sending flying across the floor. Before Dumbledore could round on Flitwick for attacking a student, a deep throat-ed chuckle was heard throughout the hall. "More. I need more." With a breathe sucking in constantly and right hand raised up, the flames of the floating candles were sucked into Juno's hand. The more fire that was sucked in, the more color came back to Juno. But when all the candles had went out, in the light from the windows and two glowing orbs the color of fiery red, Juno started turning pale again. "It's not enough. Flare, I need you." After a few moments, Juno growled and limped out of the hall, leaving all the people shocked once again.
No one has seen Juno since lunch, so Neville was wandering looking for him.
"Locomotor Mortis!" Neville heard, startling him as it him and he fell over.
"Well if it isn't the other squib from Gryffindor." Neville was worried now, because he knew Draco never went anywhere without Crabbe and Goyle.
"G-g-go away Draco. L-l-leave me alone."
"Ha! You can't even say that without stuttering. Huh? Oh look, it's the mute. What do you want? Why should I? You think I'm scared of-" Suddenly it felt like a whole hurricane was going through the hall. When it ended, Neville felt someone touch his shoulder and the leg lock was gone. Lifting himself up, Neville saw Juno's sister. This close to her, Neville noticed how cute she was, before getting embarrassed and scooting away.
"Thanks. Do you know where Juno is?" Neville asks, while still looking at her cute face.
With a silent chuckle, she taps her board to draw his attention to it.
He is probably talking to the headmaster about what happened.
"And what did happen? He just got sick and then he absorbed the candle's flames."
He was cursed by a powerful ritual that used his blood. He used his elemental power to slow the progress of the curse.
"What do you mean by elemental power. Wait when you say it was a ritual that used his blood… you mean blood magic? But, but that's forbidden magic."
Forbidden to magi, not to goblins. As for the elemental power… Before she could write it out on the board, a large group of students rounded the corner. When Brenda saw them, she paled, grabbed her board, and made a dash the other way.
Twenty minutes after Neville made it back to the common room, Juno entered. Slowly, the room grew silent, as Juno stood there awkwardly. "Many of you saw what happened at lunch and are probably wondering what happened. Truth is, I'm an elementalist with fire being my specialty."
Whispers broke out throughout the room. Many purebloods were familiar with the legends, but most thought that was all it was, legends.
"Excuse me, but what is an elementalist? I've never heard of one before." Asked Hermione, getting incredulous looks and snorts from this.
"It's a bloody myth! There is no such thing." Answered one of the upper classman.
With a twitch from Juno's wrist, the fireplace's fire leaped out above the students' heads and hovered before Juno in the shape of a ball.
"An elementalist has complete and utter control of the element that they specialize in. They require no magic to control it, so even non-magi can become an elementalist, but they can only exert basic control. You need mana in order to do the more advance stuff." As Juno was saying this, the ball of fire floated higher and spread itself out in a style that many of the muggle born recognized, especially when one of the circles began opening and closing while moving. Waka waka waka waka waka…
"The three things you need to know about elementalists are 1: There is only 0.05% of humanoids that can become an elementalist, which is surprising that me and… Never mind. 2: We need the element we specialize in present in order to use it. So for, if there is no fire, I would need to make it or cast some. 3: When an elementalist controls their power, their eyes glow the color that represents their element. My eyes glow red when I control fire. Ah! No, Blinky! I miss actual Pac Man." After the flaming Pac Man fully collapsed, the flames went back into itself and flew back into the fireplace. "Now if you'll excuse me, today has been quite tiring, with once again, almost dying." With that, the crowd parted to let Juno head to his dorm room. When Juno was up the stairs, the room broke out into many conversations.
A/N I, like Juno, am not very good at Pac Man.
