Hogwarts Wizarding School of Witchcraft and Wizardry
-7:30 PM-
"Tasia, are you sure-"
"God dammit Aria, if you don't want to suffer go away,"
Anastasia Sinclair, a girl roaming in the corridors along with her multiple Hufflepuffs and Gryffindor friends brushed a certain Hufflepuff as she keeps bickering if it's really hard or not.
The girl she brushed off looked offended as she throwed her tantrum going away from the group. Some ones laugh as Tasia sighed reaching where the Training Grounds are.
Afar, stood Justin and Elliot who seems to notice the change of the crowd. Gulping, Justin spoke. "Are you really going to do this? I mean...look at them, looks like Tasia brought the whole American population.."
"Would rather like it if it's my own house but this works fine, they will be probably more loyal." Elliot spoke not beating around the bush, his point is Slytherin's would be more good, but they're too prideful to submit to him. Justin staring at him confused and odd, dropping the transfigurated dumbbells in his hand as the crowd approached.
Tasia seems liked an excellent for friend making. Estimating, there's almost about 15 students. Dang she's like a human magnet. Elliot tried to smile but only putting a weird face instead. Coughing, Tasia introduced them, "Elliot and Justin. Meet Suzy, Ray, Gio, Oscar, Walter, John, Marc, Raquel, Wine, Danielle, Princess, Mary, Susan And Austin"
" Suxy, Ray, Gio, Osca-"
Elliot immediately brush his hands off, "Enough now, I don't need to know-"
"Their names anyway.."
It was said in a whisper as Elliot just put out the knowing smile. And Tasia nodded understanding it. She stretched for a bit, soon staring at her 'friends'. "What? Do the same too!"
The crowd moved as they just realized it, nodding as their cranky and scrawny built made them look like a stick being stretched by a person. The three fought the urge to laugh, Elliot letting Tasia teach them as she was the one who wanted it.
Midway, Fred and George came in. Then being the bold ones and freely insulting the friends of Tasia with their movements. Only to be shut off by the girl herself.
Just like that, the usual morning routine for the group of first years in the grounds changed together.
After several boring classes after that, Elliot made his way to the Great Halls alone as his timetables today doesn't match up with the two. Entering, bunch of students let their eyes wander to him. He has been gaining popularity about his 'project'. The first years that were having a hard time with their studies didn't let him have a free time back at the morning classes as they continously and one after another asked if they could join in with the morning workouts. As they actually thought its the thing that was powering Elliot's talent.
Technically, it is. The more your body is active, the more your core also is. But then they would be nowhere near the three, Justin, Tasia, and Elliot as they don't even know what core enhancing is. Let alone what the hell is a core.
But still, Elliot just agreed as they will come in usefulness sometimes. Points people. Points.
Of course, the prideful two trio, Draco's and Harry, didn't had any interest about it. Though Harry was having the urge to ask Elliot about some things, the Weasley forbid it as then, he hates the certain Demetrius for no reason. And Draco, thumbs up to him. He now mastered the ability to ignore the Demetrius at any given moment.
Going to the reality, Elliot joined in the Slytherin's table who darted their eyes to his back discreetly. Elliot didn't planned to take his time eating today as he was going for the library. So he rushly ate his food finishing early, going away immediately as he roamed around the castle going to the corridors that leads to the big ass library. The Hogwarts Library is located off of a corridor on the first-floor of Hogwarts Castle and contains tens of thousands of books on thousands of shelves. It's overseen by Madam Irma Pince, it's basically where students can go to peruse or borrow books to supplement their studies or maybe personal enjoyments. Now it strikes him, is there some porn mags or something in it?
Arriving, there were few people as expected. And then, of course, there was the sheer size of the library; tens of thousands of books; thousands of shelves; hundreds of narrow rows. Elliot eyes made its sudden way to the sign in the small gate far away, close to the receptionist counter. Reading, 'Restricted Section' in the sign.
He had his interest for it in sometime now, but no rush really going there, sometimes going overzealous about everything will probably make a sudden butterfly effect which could end this shit terribly. Cutting his eyes off, he made his way to the section of Languages.
It didn't took him awhile to pick something good and fitting for his situation. It would be probably just some Latin shites or something. It wonders him why they didn't just teach Latin here in Hogwarts if they would literally just make the spells in that language, even in English actually some spells are really obvious, like Levicorpus, lifting a body, Lift = Levi, Corpse = Corpus.
But more better, why didn't he had the wisdom to learn it himself before?
Realizing now, he looks down disappointed at himself, but forgetting that matter, he opened the book in its table of contents, only to find there's isn't one. Cool.
So flipping again on a random page, he took his left 5 minutes to scavenge it. Looking for the word exordi repeatedly as the time passed.
As those minutes passed, the loud bell rang and he sighed, closing the big Latin book putting it on to its original shelf. No exordi seen. Excellent.
Turning back to the exit of the library, he met Fred and George together, who also seems to noticed him back.
"Oh here's our star boy for today-"
"Never knew he visits the library eh?"
Elliot shrugged going on to the third floor for Charms, the two still not leaving him alone. "Don't you guys have anything to do?" Elliot asked as he turns to the two following him behind.
"We have a detention today-"
"Will have actually."
"So might as well do more mischiefs."
Fred finished off giving a high five to his brother grinning mischievously as they practically said they're skipping class.
"Good recommendation would be Filch, his cat almost scratched my beautiful and soft legs the other day," Elliot dramatically lifted up his legs, who in truth, is really what he described like. But the twins chuckled as they just luckily had an idea pop up to them.
" Perfect-"
" Maybe we could get more useful thing in his cabinet-"
" That, once if we get detention anyway-"
"Unlike that useless piece of paper."
The twins grunted in unsatisfaction as Elliot has his eyes lit up. "Useless piece of paper?"
"Oh tell me brother-"
"We've been trying to find out it's Mysteries for centuries"
"And we're close to the hope it's just nothing but rubbish"
"Nevertheless, it's a good souvenir to keep from Filch's office-"
The two laughed again histeric by themselves, Elliot snorting. Marauders Map eh? Rubbish?
It would be a pretty good use for him but he want to save himself some trouble. He's too lazy to ask the twins to give it to him, and even with the twins jovial personality, they're pretty smart to know that he's being suspicious by asking about it.
"By the way Ellioty"
"You left really early before-"
"Lunch time he means-
" And a letter actually came for you. "
Elliot looked at them both arching his eyebrows. Him? Letter? Was it the Owlers? Some development or failure happened?
He just reluctantly nodded as they were nearing his classroom, where the twins took the time to make fun of their History of Magic Lessons.
"Blah blah blah, fundamentals, abacaderian, essential, theirs lot of words out there-"
"But they planned to use its Latin form, eXorDi"
Grins and laughs surrounded the two where Elliot immediately stopped at his feet as well as stopping the two.
"What the-"
"Matter?"
"Exordi?"
Elliot, interrupting the two, asked.
"Yeah, fundamentals.. and like, rudimentary"
The two explained about their lessons in that certain class. Origins, History, and things like that.
As Elliot heard that word, it's noticeable that his ears jumped, and without doubt, he wants to rushly check his diary. He smirked, his body fighting the urge to also skip class and just be by himself. It's a Potion. A Potion that's been written in the diary, but he never bothered it as it doesnt have any description unlike the other potions written in it. Thinking that his master just probably left it forgetting about it. What's his talking about? Rudimentary Potion perhaps.
