Misadventures at Hogwarts: Term 2

My eyes lit up in alarm.
"I think I might... Wait for a second, I'll go get changed..."
Saying that rather quickly, I stood up, gave my ankles one last rub, and hurried up the stairs...
--
Coming back late in a couple of minutes, I sat down again near the fireplace, this time in a roomy armchair.
 
" I already finished myhomework, but I will study for potions..." I said, sitting next to Terra.
 
"Hmm... Letmesee..." I said, flipping through the small planbook I kept, then spotting the work.
Seeing that I had crossed of most of the things, I only saw-
"Oh, yes, Charms work! That sounds nice, I have to give a report..."
 
After the crowd cleared, I stretched and said, "That wasn't a very good joke was it?"

"No, it didn't go as planned. I guess you'd have to know what really went on to get the joke of this. Now go return to what you were doing before this whole mess." Dumbledore said as I left to go to the great Hall.

Once there everyone was giving me dirty looks, but I just laughed at them and sat down at the Ravenclaw table. Everyone moved down so I was by myself. I shrugged, and said silently, "I've felt worse. I don't really care if no one likes me anymore. At least I got one more good laugh out of this place." Not even Will or Jane would sit by me. But I didn't really care.
 
OOC: Are we back in the Common Room now?
 
OCC: Well, the Gryffindors are in the common room.
 
I ate breakfast quietly, and enjoyed the peace I was getting. Because I've had none of it in a very long time, I had hoped that no one would ever speak to me again, no one. I was enjoying being alone. "This feels so nice. NOt to worry about any dark wizard, now I don't have to worry about Karli. I can now enjoy the rest of my time here. "I said tomyself, relaxing as I laid my head on the table.
 
"Johann was just a jerk!" I said sitting in an arm chair. "I was sad about him all night long! Well at least he got that evil wizard out of him..."
 
I got up and walked to the courtyard. "I guess I'm going back to New Zealand tomorrow. I've fulfilled everything early, and I have no reason to love Karli anymore. I'm sure she hates me now. Oh well...there are more girls in New Zealand." I said sighing as I sat on a bench to relax more.
 
Cassidy nodded as Karli, Josh, and Terra voiced their displeasure at Johann's "joke."

"I can't really say much," Cassidy told them, keeping her nose buried in her book. "He did save my life, after all. I mean, really, it could have ended a lot worse. I'm not trying to excuse his behavior. It was a cruel joke to play on all of us...but still..."

She trailed off, knowing she probably wouldn't get too far with her point. She continued to read her potions book.

He did bring it on himself... she thought sadly. Poor guy. He'll learn someday...

Andrew had also found his way to the common room, and plopped himself down by the fire with his DADA book, working on his paper for the class. He said nothing about Johann or his joke, but nodded his head silently in agreement with Cassidy.
 
I sighed again, then frowned.
"You know, he never told me he had that... Wizard..... In him...."
Saying this, I looked into the fire, troubled by the past events.
 
"Well it's now settled." I said to myself. "I'll tell my 'friends' that I'm leaving and never coming back to this place. But what would they care? After that stunt, which was funny to only me and Dumbledore. No one needs me here anyway. All my power is drained, since Sabastian isn't around, so my power is back to normal status. And I can't protect or help any one or anything here anymore." I said getting up to look for everyone.
 
"Well now that I have my homework done," I said. "and the funeral's over, I can get back to trying to become a stag!"
I got my animagus book out and began practicing. It wasn't a complete waste of time. I got my ears to grow a couple of inches.
"That was good wasn't it guys?" I aske transforming back to normal.
 
"Make sure you're careful, Josh," Cassidy warned in her friendliest voice. "I heard working too hard at becoming an animagus can have some pretty harsh side effects."

She peered at him over the top of her book. A few dried spills of ingredients dotted its cover, the battle scars of careless moments gone by. She smiled.

"It does look like it's coming along nicely, though," she offered, looking at his almost-stag ears. "It'll be neat to see when you can do the entire transformation."

She returned to her book, but Andrew got up from his place by the fire, and plodded over to Josh. He glanced over his shoulder at the book in Josh's hands.

"Do be careful," Andrew echoed Cassidy's words. "That's a really old method. I heard of some modern ones that you might want to check out. Not sure if they're any safer though."

He fingered his animagus medallion subconciously as he returned to his seat on the floor by the fire. Looking around at the melancholy atmosphere, he resigned to his parchment for only a moment before he asked the room, "should someone go see how Johann is doing? He didn't look too happy..."
 
Berii didn't go to the 'funeral', she didn't want to see him be burried, or was it because of another reason? She continued to ask herself that question and someone in her mind will always answer "he's not dead" over and over again.

When she saw the students were now back inside, with a mad expression? She smiled. "That means..."

She rushed through the hallways looking for Johann. She stopped, there he was...alive, she couldn't be anymore glad.

"You jerk!" Berii exlamied, running over to him. She thought that Johann would expect her to slap or hit him, but she couldn't, although she wants to, and hugged him instead. "Never do that again!"
 
"Yes Josh, becoming an Animagus is horrible work. Take your time, it will cause stress if you dont" I said shutting my book. "Well....I'm going for lunch. See you"
I packed my bookbag and headed down to the Great Hall.
 
NO! The only person that could make me change my mind doesn't hate me! This isn't supposed to happen! I'm leaving, this will make it tough! I thought to myself alittle annoyed. When she let go I said after along time of looking at her, "I'm not going to make you any happier. I'm leaving tomorrow, I'm going back to New Zealand to live, my work here is done. I really had no intention of staying at Hogwarts, I knew I was going to leave adventually, but not so soon. Well I have to tell the others now. See you later...or maybe never." I said walking into the Great Hall to find mad faces still. I sat down and waited for everyone else. I then spotted Karli...
 
I saw Johann, and walked up to him.
"I hope you have earned your lesson..." I muttered to him.
