Chapter Eigth (Eighth): Silent Wallflower



"The last time I saw anyone form the wizard world was the day after I left. I went back to our house in Pembroke. Remus came to see if I was ok, he's, also Chaos's Godfather, along with Molly Weasley. So he came to see the boy too and play with him for a while. he wanted to know if Little Black's were ok, I told him yes, that they were with their Grandfather in London." The Empress told him from the super puffy white chair.

"So, this could be a good place to start with Aniko's troubles." Theorized Godric Gryffindor, the Headmaster of AsVoria and the founder of Gryffindor house at Hogwarts. "That would make some logical sense if you think about."

"Really, it's more illogical then anything, Godric." Answered Amelia

"Alright, but what are we going to do about Aniko? We need to help her."

"Headmaster Gryffindor, please do what you think will help, now I have no time. I really must get back to the capital. Please give Aniko my love. Goodbye Sir." Amelia snipped.

"Of course Your Majesty." The Headmaster answered her as she headed down the spiral marble stairs.

He leaned back in his chair, and grabbed his smoking pipe. Aniko is a troublemaker. With a capital T, but she wasn't stupid, a talent she inherited from her father. As Godric dove deeper into his thoughts, a few young mages had other ideas for that evening.

In the Luminous tower three very nervous mages sat watching their friends scuttle around gathering up things. Ginger Godrick was a short girl, who didn't like to be in trouble too often, which wasn't the view that her friends held. Her red curls bobbed in the night air, her violet eyes showed too much anxiety for someone of her age, and once again she began to question her dear friends.

"This is so illogical, how many times have you two been in trouble this week, huh?" She asked Jade and Ani, acting like a worried mother.

"Four." Jade said sharply.

"Ani?"

"Four." She answered.

"Come on Black, you really think I believe you?" Ginger chorused.

"Six"

"Still not buying it."

"Me either." Jade added. "The last time it was six YOU were SIX." She laughed heavily with Ginger and Melina.

"Ha, ha, very funny know it all." Aniko answered coolly.

"Common Ani, how many? It has to be a lot, you broke your record this year. Plus you are the first person to get a detention in the first week back after New Years in like, forty years." Melina said as she slipped from the edge of the bed onto the fluffy, carpet below, ducking quickly to avoid the hurling pillow Aniko had thrown her way.

"Alright, I'll tell you. I think it was ten."

"TEN!" The girls hollered.

"Yes, yes it was ten. Monday - turning Narina Talbot's hair green in Potions, charming the floors to ice, and then on Tuesday I made a Malfoy float in the air by strings and attacked him later with glass bottles." The girls stood shocked.

"Wednesday- Jade and I made the Wizardology teacher's scarves turn into snakes, also turned a couple of Stygian's blue and green, and then on Thursday we made that bottle-neck potion blow up during the Seventh years class. Also made a couple of statutes come to life, and charmed a couple of the ghosts frozen. Then on Friday, well not much really on Friday, just dumping slime on top of the House of Stygian. A pretty average week." Aniko carried on.

"Ya. Only you would admit to doing all that stuff, anyway." Ginger said sticking her tongue out at Ani, as she did the same to Ginger.

"Ani did you know your mom was here?" Melina asked.

"Ya."

"Why didn't she come to see you?" Mel asked.

"Did she come to see you Ani? That's so weird." Ginger cried out shocked.

"Ya, Mom and I really don't get along too well, never really have. I look and act too much like my dad and she hates that."

"Oh." Chimed Melina and Ginger in unison.

"Ya aren't you too a pair," Aniko told them as she and Jade pulled on their thick black capes.

"Ok we're going, You both know what to do when head students come around?"

"Yup, Ani we've been helping you and Jade since first grade, we're not new at this."

"Ok, bye cuties." Jade and Ani left and headed for the still common room.

They slunk down the soundless marble halls of AsVoria to the Dark Forest where they were going to meet the guys. They had a show tonight and sneaking out was the only way to make it, it was also the only fun way. True they could just use a portal, but that lacked style. Where sneaking out had the "Marauders" written all over it.

The boys stood like gods in the night at the edge of the forest. Peris in his red and gold cape, Darius in his dark violet and Rufus in his royal blue, the boys gave the two girls annoyed looks for being late and then they were off. They hiked through the heavy thick bushes, fallen trees and ivy strands crunched under their feet. Evans led the way, yet all of a sudden he stopped making the other four slam right into his athletically built body. Each M5 member fell onto another member and then fell to the ground with a thud.
