Chapter 21
*School Infirmary*
“All right, where's this guy who hurt his ankle.” Grim said as he pointed at a Heartslabyul Student.
“Huh?” Said student looked at them along with his friend.
“Hey, it's the ones from the newly made Slytherin Dorm ! They were at the unbirthday party! What are you guys doing here?”
Roxana smiled at them. “Hello~”
The student who broke his ankle suddenly had a nosebleed; his friend deadpanned at him. “Dude chill !”
“I would like to know how this accident happened” Roxana said.
“I don't really know what happened myself.” Heartslabyul Student said. “I was walking along, talking to my friend. And next thing I knew, BOOM! I was tumbling down the stairs.”
“Yeah. I didn't even see him stumbling or anything.”
“It was like my body just lurched forward by itself. I can't really explain it.”
“Hm. Hmmm. Interesting. Veeery interesting.” Grim nodded.
It’s sounds like Mobilicorpus, but he didn’t say anything about floating some inches above the ground. Roxana thought.
Roxana smiled again. “Well gentlemen thank you for talking to us”
“Damn she’s hot”
“Dude !”
“You’re acting like that cause you’re gay !”
“I am not !”
“You are”
“I am not gay ! How many time do I have to tell you that !”
“Dude just come out of the closet already ! Am not judging you”
“I AM NOT GAY !”
“YES YOU ARE ! AND AM GETTING YOU A BOYFRIEND !”
*Classroom*
“Hey, you. You had an accident and almost got hurt real bad, right? Give us the deets.” Grim demanded a Pomefiore student.
“Grim ! This is not a way to speak with people !” Roxana slapped the chimera on his head. “I am sorry about his behavior; we came here to investigate the accidents and help the best way we can”
The Pomefiore students blushed.
“He was in peak condition for the Spelldrive tournament and got hurt so bad that he can't even play now!”
“It happened in the laboratory. We were boiling up a potion when his hands suddenly shot out and grabbed the screaming hot cauldron. He dumped out every last drop. It was bizarre! Made a real mess too.”
“Hm. Hmmm. Interesting. Veeery interesting.” Grim nodded.
“I see thank you for sharing the information” Roxana said before walking away. “Grim go back to Slytherin am going to look around for a bit”
“Huh ? Okay !” Grim made his way to the Slytherin mirror.
The mirror was silver like the others, it had two snakes on each side with the Slytherin crest above like the other mirrors.
Roxana started to walk around while letting her forked tongue out from time to time like a snake, trying to smell the magic in the air while around the places where the accidents took place.
As expected… the same magic was used in these places but… Roxana let her snake tongue out again. The person who casted the magic was hidden by other people, so it’s not only one culprit but many. She narrowed her eyes. Slytherins did the same things once to Gryffindor when a Quidditch match was approaching, but they were quickly discovered because they were a bit obvious about it, but this is dorm vs dorm competition not only one dorm between the other like in Hogwarts.
Roxana smirked.
I have to admit, the person who came up with this plan is brilliant, but there was a flaw, out of the dorms that got injured only two didn’t get hurt Diasomnia and Savanaclaw, Diasomnia came out on top for the past years and Malleus is still in the school, so they have no reason to do this, in other words Savanaclaw are the culprit, I just need to find out who then the how, but—
Roxana gave a side look at the two Savanaclaw students that just passed, then she smirked.
I will gave a bit of fun~
Roxana hid behind a statue as she send a Sardine Hex at one and cursed the other with Slug-vomiting Charm.
One started to sneeze sardines.
And the other started to vomit slugs.
Roxana laughed as they screamed in horror before she walked away. Her phone vibrated in her pocket; she picked up the call when she found it was Ace.
“Yes ?”
“Hey uh Roxana ? Don’t get angry but…Deuce wait don’t !!!”
“Trey fell down the stairs! He's hurt!” Deuce screamed in the phone.
“What did you just say ?”
“DEUCE WE SAID WE WILL TELL HER CALMLY"
“AM SORRY ! I PANICKED !”
Roxana hung up. “God give me patience, because if you give me more power this school is going to get burned down to ashes”
*Heartslabyul Dorm – Trey’s room*
The door slammed open, and a furious Roxana walked in.
“Roxana…hey” Ace awkwardly.
“Trey, how did you get hurt ?” Roxana asked.
“Slipped on the stairs. I couldn't catch myself, and my ankle got all messed up. I'll be on crutches for a while.” He said.
Deuce grimaced. “Yikes. That sounds pretty bad!”
Trey gave a pained smile. “Yep. Looks like I'll be warming the bench at the Spelldrive tournament this year.”
“Myah... I was hoping' your injury would be small enough for me to justify keeping' this, but... Here. I brought ya a get-well can of tuna. Feel better, specs.”
“Heh. Thanks.” He couldn’t refused the cat.
Cater groaned. “Ugh, hashtag #fail! Now that we've lost a power player, we have to redo our team roster!”
Deuce and Ace looked at him. “Wait, what?!”
The door opened again to let Riddle in, he looked at the people inside. “Why are there so many people in here? Trey is supposed to be resting!”
Grim jumped. “Myah! It's Ragin' Riddle!”
Riddle deadpanned. “I am not "raging." I will be perfectly pleasant if you obey the rules!” He softened. “How are you doing, Trey? Can I bring you anything to eat or drink?”
Trey shook his head. “I told you, Riddle: you don't need to fuss over me like this.”
Riddle looked guilty. “But it's my fault that you got hurt.”
Ace looked at him in sock. “What? He didn't tell us that part!”
“I needed to talk to him, so I went to the junior classroom at lunch. And then...” Riddle then proceeded to explain what exactly happened.
But the only things going through Roxana’s head was how Riddle was the main target and not Trey.
Riddle was the target.
Riddle could have been gravely injured.
“Uh Roxana ?” Ace stepped back from her when he saw the terrifying look on her face.
“Wo-oh not again TAKE COVER !” Grim screamed as he hid under the bed.
SOMEONE DARED TO HURT HER CHILD !!!
The windows exploded and the decoration in the room got destroyed, Roxana’s magic went berserk from anger.
“I-need-to-go” Roxana said through her teeth, she snaped her finger to repair everything with a Reparo before she walked out of Trey’s room and the dorm in general.
“What in the hell was that ?” Ace asked terrified.
“Myah ! That was a magical outburst” Grim said.
“And you know that because ?” Deuce asked.
“Well, I kinda wore a cloak that turns you invisible while going around her treasury, and Roxana got furious at me and told me to never wear it, touch it, or even look at it unless I want to be barbecued and eaten” Grim said. “Never returned to it ever since”
“I am curious, but I feel like if I asked her I will be burned alive” Ace said.
***
Roxana quickly sealed the letter with a green wax and used the Slytherin wax sealer.
The zero existence of mental defense made it so easy to get the information needed from Savanaclaw students to find out the reason why Leona started all this. Roxana though.
“Helia !” Roxana called the phoenix who appeared in front of her. “Please take this to Lilia”
“Alright !”
***
Lilia was about to serve food for both Sebek and Silver when a bird appeared in flames on the table, Sebek pointed his sword at the bird who gave him an offended look.
“Sebek stand down, Helia must have came here for a reason” Lilia said.
“It has a name ?” Sebek said/shouted.
The bird now named Helia glared at Sebek and bit his hand.
“AAAH ! WHY YOU !”
"Calm down Sebek, you must not attack the phoenix" Lilia put a hand on Sebek’s chest and pushed him a bit Sebek muttered 'phoenix' under his breath while looking at Helia. “Helia did you need something ?”
Helia sang a small song before she pushed the letter she put on the table in front of him.
Lilia took the letter while Helia flew and landed on Silver’s shoulder and started preening his hair the boy did not move but he looked a bit awkward.
Dear Lilia.
Savanaclaw has been targeting students of all dorms that will play in Spelldrive, make sure that all Diasomnia students are always on guard, if they see any Savanaclaw student that seems to be hiding someone or something it best if they go the other way, my guess is that their main target is Malleus.
I heard about how the Savanaclaw Housewarden doesn’t get along with yours, I suspect that Leona planed something for him, I still didn’t get the information, the other Savanaclaw students weren’t told about Leona’s plans for Malleus, I will send you another letter if I find out.
Sincerely.
Roxana Lestrange.
Lilia sighed in disappointment. “That lion won’t stop till he’s forced to, good thing I was informed in advance...”
Silver turned to look at Lilia while he caressed the phoenix. "Is something wrong father ?"
Lilia narrowed his eyes. "I hope nothing goes wrong"
Sebek and Silver looked at each other without saying a word.
***
Another Savanaclaw ended up in the infirmary and Crewel is starting to lose his patience, he was informed by Crowley of what is happening and why the only female student is doing what she’s doing.
But Crewel was worried because these curses were one ridiculous curse after the other, and it did not end ! More Savanaclaw students came after the other.
One was sneezing literal sardines (gross)
The other was vomiting slugs of all things ! (he shivered when he saw that)
One had his legs glued together.
The other one skin was rainbow, and it did not wash off !
A fucking cheetah beastman came here with another pair of ears and tail of FUCKING DONKEY !
One is stuck in the toilet emptying his bowl only to return to the toilet after five minute to empty it again. (he can still hear it and the poor ghosts who had to clean the hallways …brown…so much brown and the smell oh god)
Another is also stuck in the toilet peeing nonstop, Crewel had to give him water every now and then, so he won’t dehydrate.
Another was farting literal green smoke (Crewel had to put a nose-clip on his nose for this one cause of how nasty it was)
“This is madness !” Crewel screamed.
“Professor HELP !” Another Savanaclaw entered.
Crewel gave up.
The Savanaclaw in the infirmary were all crying literal tears.
***
“HOUSEWARDEN LEONA !!!”
Leona woke up from the scream, the beastman who screamed entered in his room in panic.
“HORRIBLE NEWS !!!”
“Whatever it is, it better be worth it you woke me up from my nap” Leona growled.
“Savanaclaw members are getting sick, cursed, and injured one after the other and we don’t know who is the culprit !”
“What”
