Magic Within Us - An Ateez Hogwarts AU

Secrets

San ran to greenhouse seven. They were using it as a base to watch over the boathouse because it was rarely used and mostly empty except for the line of mandrakes going into hibernation along one of the far walls.

Light streamed in from the open windows and the empty greenhouse reflected back at San. Of course he was the first one here. The others were busy putting the plan into action. He sat on the ledge next to the windows and rested his head back on the window, his hands fell limp into his lap as he stared up at the vaulted ceiling.

How was he supposed to continue staying at hogwarts? With all that was happening. He knew Auror Potter was hiding things from him and so was Professor Longbottom. They were trying to protect him from something he felt so obligated to end. He wasn't a child anymore. He had already dealt with so many worse things. Watching his mother be killed by Anchor Mortem and then his brother; his sweet kind brother had been taken. Unconsciously, San reached up and pulled at the streak of white blonde hair. Twisting it in between his fingertips.

San startled when the door to the greenhouse opened and Jongho walked in.

"No one else is here yet?" He asked.

San shook his head and turned to look out the window. He could just see Wooyoung and Yeosang exiting the Boathouse and quickly hiding. They had to lay in wait for Mingi and then block the doors.

"I wish I could have helped more." San whispered. His breath fogged against the greenhouse glass.

"Yeah but we couldn't have them see you and then realize something was up."

"I know." San didn't want to be angry with Jongho. It wasn't his fault that San felt as if he was being left out and kept from everything important. The only thing to do with this plan that he had actually been able to help out with was getting supplies and anyone of them could have done it.

Silence welled between them.

"San, I-" Jongho sat next to San. He pressed the palm of his hand and pressed it into his forehead. The words stopping as pain radiated out from his forehead.

"Are you feeling okay?" San reached out to put a comforting hand on Jongho's shoulder.

But as soon as San's hand touched Jongho, he stood up straight. His eyes stared off into the distance, intent on something that San couldn't see.

"Jongho?" San was more concerned now. What was happening to his friend?

""The one you seek is closer than you realize
When the snow stays he shall arrive
Walking through Aconite, carrying Sweet Briar
Brains and brawn will not help you
He must bathe in eternal fire"

The moment the last word left Jongho's lips he coughed and turned toward San. Confusion clear in his eyes. As well as the realization that his headache was now gone.

"What the hell was that about?" Came a voice from the door. Seonghwa was staring back at the both of them. Shock mirrored on all of their faces. "Did you just prophesy something?"

****

It was a gut reaction for Mingi to reach out and slap Yunho. It was effective too. Yunho took a gasp in and his eyes rolled back as he turned on his side and groaned.

He laid back on the cold tiles of the boathouse floor. "My leg." He said after a moment. His voice was barely audible, more a low breath than actual words.

"What?" Mingi asked.

"There's something wrong with my leg." Yunho said more vigorously as he tried to sit up and get a better glance at his leg. "It's burning." With another grunt he fell back against the tiles.
