[IC] Harry Potter: Dark Lord Rising (Ojo Chan42 & Ryker Rohrer)

[Ryker Rohrer]

Crixus crossed his arms silently as Levi pushed at him half halfheartedly, while Levi was very much like a sniveling little privileged weasel, but there was also something else there as well. Crixus was not so blind he could not see that, he spoke so strongly of his heritage but there was something deeper below the surface that he wasn't saying. Crixus knew Levi's father, he had meant him once long ago when he first came to the Ministry and that meeting was well short lived, not short enough for that matter. But in comparison Levi was nothing like his father, the coldness in his father did not seem to fit Levi, Levi seemed more angry then anything else. Crixus uncrossed his arms as Ceres sniffled beside him, she was upset and he had not helped make it any better confronting Levi the way he did. Crixus placed a comforting hand on Ceres's shoulder, he spoke softly towards her.

"He still cares as much as it pains me to say that. As much as I would hate him, I can also understand a little bit of why he seems to haunt your footsteps. It does not excuse him or his actions, but I feel like there is something deeper inside he does not let on. Things will get better Ceres, time does wonders and maybe one day perhaps you may... see things in a different perspective. Anyways... how bout we go to your first class, Alchemy I believe which, from what I have heard is your favorite, that will cheer you up.

Crixus motioned his hand with a small genuine smile, as he began to walk with Ceres he could not help but think about what Levi had said about him sticking his head out too much. As far as threats go that one was very real, the way he had spoken of it was just too specific in its nature to ignore. He was not afraid of the threat but it made him weary none the less, if there was something more to Levi's threat then just words, then that meant there was a strong possibility that there was an actual threat to Ceres within Hogwarts. Crixus kept silent though and would say nothing to Ceres about it, it was better that he did not tell her such thoughts now. He did not want to open her wounds anymore then they already were.

silently Ceres walked with Crixus towards the alchemy classroom, the sadness she had felt just now had dissapeared partly. She had Crixus to thnak for that, he stood up for her and chased away the devil in the box, popping out whenever it pleases him. But why did he continue to pop up in her life, he had ended it, so why did he still hang around her. The thoughts haunted around her head as se forged a small link between her current scenario and her problems with Levi.

The first attack occured after she and Levi broke up, to much of a coincedence Ceres thought. She stopped int he midst of her train of thoughts, Ceres knew she should not jump to conclusions.

Ceres noticed her surroundings and pulled on Crixus his arms as they were about to mis the alchemy classroom. It was a small hidden oblique hallway that one could barely fit though. If you did not know where the local was you could walk straight past it.
''its here, walk sideways through it, it will get a tad smaller at the end as we near the door'' Ceres spoke taking Crix's hand in hers and leaded him into the darkness. Soflty Ceres opened the door to the classroom, It was a big round room that gave one the feeling of a small library, with high windows that let in the light and some glass in lead showing the four basic elements in their own respective circle, making four circles of red, blue, green and yellow hit the floor. Between the windows large and high bookshelves stood proud, dark wooden desk stood in three rows and each row had 6 desk, making place for 32 students.

Ceres rememberd when she entered the room for the first time and had chuckled, the teacher Mr Clemens Germanium had asked her why she did so and Ceres had replied with 'oh, the tables house a natural number. 32 the magic number in nature' At first the teacher was amazed but once she gave him her name the old man had snorted. Ever since he had disliked her and did his very best to make the lessons as had as possible for the young Solar, and why Ceres had no idea.

Mr Germanium was a man in his late sixties, but still as quick as he claimed to be in his younger years. He had a short white beard with a iron bead tying the thing together, and a pair of glaring green eye's.

Those same glaring eye's looked up from a thick book he was reading at his own desk at the front of the classroom. Eline and Kota were already sitting in the front together with about 12 other students. Not many Hogwards students chose the subject Alchemy for A. the teacher and B. it was incerdibly though and only those talented in the subject were recomended to take it.

''Well, well what do we have here'' Mr Germanium said as he stood up and looked at Ceres and Crixus. ' a newcomer, are you sure you can handle the difficutl nature of the elements. They will try to rule you, and if you do not watch out it will transmute you into something straight out of your nightmares''

Ceres sighed and she pulled Crixus to a desk behind Eline and Kota and sat down.

''Ignore him, he is trying to scare you off. Like Hogwards woud allow a transmutation spell'' Ceres wisperd
