I was furious. I was going to apprehend whoever caused the incident which shall not be named and make them regret that they had ever crossed me.
The only thing out of the ordinary yesterday was I received birthday gifts. Unfortunately all my friends and family were suspects. The perpetrator could have disguised a gift as coming from someone I knew and the only present I had used was the makeup. Also, Jasper and Scorpius handed me gifts close to the incident which shall not be named.
Now to find the culprit.
As I sat at the dining table, I was trying not to lose control of my anger as I furiously bit into my hamburger.
"So where were you during classes?" Lucia wondered.
"Well let's just say there was an incident which shall not be named and if I find out if any of you had anything to do with it you will wish that you had never been born," I warned.
"That just makes us more interested," Gabriel pointed out.
I angrily swallowed my pumpkin juice.
"Okay. We won't ask. Just calmly eat your food or the rest of us are going to regurgitate our meal," Lucia replied.
"I'll try," I sighed.
"Try what?" Scorpius asked as he sat down.
"To eat like a civilized human being instead of ravenous beast," Lucia chuckled.
I glared at her as I ripped into my chips and chewed as gentle as I could possibly muster.
"Okay," Scorpius said as he took a sip of his pumpkin juice.
"We aren't allowed to talk about the incident which shall not be named," offered Gabriel.
"Really? Did this incident which shall not be named cause you personal harm?" Scorpius inquired.
"No," I grumbled.
"Then did it offend you?" Scorpius pressed further.
"Yes because my freewill was taken away," I frowned.
"How so?" Scorpius pried.
"An unkown someone did something and that caused me to do something against my will. Not only did it affect me it affected another living being," I heavily sighed.
"Oh," Scorpius quietly replied.
"So who did you maim?" Gabriel wondered.
"I didn't," I huffed.
"But you said tha-," Gabriel reminded.
"I don't care what I said! It was my fir-," I cried.
Lucia went to pat my arm but I immediately ran from the table.
An hour later Lucia came up to our room.
"I'm here when you are ready to talk," Lucia alerted me.
I sighed and closed my book, Centaurs History With Wizards and Witches.
"I know I'm acting like a raving lunatic, but I can't help it," I whispered.
Lucia responded, "Well assuming by how upset you are I'd say you were about to tell us it was your first kiss."
I nodded my head.
"You can't change it now so just make sure your next kiss is spectacular," Lucia recommended.
"That's dependent on who the other party is," I pointed out.
"I hope you don't end up kissing a blubber slobber fish," Lucia kidded.
"I wouldn't wish that on my worst enemy. Who'd want to smell like body odor and rancid watermelon? Someone would have to be an idiot to want that," I laughed.
"Speaking of people who don't use all their brain cells, Gabriel kept asking why you were upset about your fur. I was laughing so hard that I couldn't answer his question," chuckled Lucia.
"He didn't have to take me so literally," I pointed out.
"Unfortunately he's never been one to read between the lines," agreed Lucia.
Just then I heard a peck at the window. I opened it and an unfamiliar owl swooped in to drop a letter on my bed.
After chanting a few spells to make sure it was safe to open, I picked up the letter.
A loud boom sounded as I opened it. Red and purple lights escaped from the envelope and formed a giant question mark.
Once the display had disappeared, I read the contents of the letter.
Rose-
I hope you have taken great delight in my surprise. If not then better luck next time.
A puzzle will I leave with you. Figure out who I am and I will tell you how I pulled off my prank.
Maybe you'll get lucky the first time. Please enlighten me with your theories.

I threw the letter at Lucia.
"Well I do have one thing to say," Lucia said quickly.
"What?" I inquired.
"They certainly have a flair for theatrics," Lucia noted.
"More like a flair for ridiculousness. All I have is this asinine letter and I still am no closer to knowing who it is," I countered.
"Well it's about time the double M group work their magic again," winked Lucia.
"I couldn't agree more. Let the hunt begin," I smirked.
