Hogwarts Wizards and Pandora's Box. The Halloween Specter

Chapter 6: WITCH DEFEATS Part 3: love?

The next day.

Explanations must be given and accounts must be given in relation to the dramas of the night. This is the goal of the professors and prefects present in the principal's office.

The 1st case: the humiliation of the Hufflepuffs.

An investigation has taken place. What could have caused such a disaster?

It was easy for the students to understand. It was because of what they ate. Common food that only the Hufflepuffs had had access to.

Ella Salvador's juices and cakes.

She was seen by the students putting down the snack.

She explained what happened to her in the bathroom. She loudly proclaims her innocence.

Everyone would like to believe in her integrity. However, the search of her belongings resulted in the discovery of a recipe for cake and juice, an almost empty vial of laxative.

Anyway, she was screwed.

The how of the mischief is discovered. What about the why?

The person concerned still claims her innocence, investigators have found no suspect who could have come up with a well-developed plan just to put the blame on her.

So, they came to a bad joke made by a teenage girl looking for attention.

She is therefore accused guilty and is reprimanded, points are taken from Hufflepuff.

Ella Salvador is on the verge of tears, none of her Hufflepuff friends consoles her, on the contrary she is called names.

She joins Kiarah Han and Lily Baker in detention.

The only people who believe in Ella's innocence are Lily Baker, Rune Evans, and Allan Smith.

The 2nd case: the intrusion into the dormitory of the Ravenclaw girls.

In the principal's office are present, principal McGonagall, Daeren Blackwood, Lily Baker, the two prefects as well as the professors responsible for the Slytherin and Ravenclaw houses.

The first question is how. How did a boy get into the girls' dormitory?

Daeren explains how he had a special garment sewn, how he concocted a powder that makes invisible, how he created a spell that breaks enchantments and where he got his Wallpaper.

Professor Slughorn is trapped between admiration and reprimand at his student's explanation.

Now the crux of the matter remains the motive.

"What was your reason for breaking into the girls' dormitory and painting Miss Baker?" Asks the headmistress.

Daeren takes a breath, looks at Lily, small droplets of tears fall from his eyes.

"Love, madam, love."

Everyone is silent, shocked, or have a hard time believing this revelation, especially Lily.

"Love?"

"Yes, my love for Lily Baker. No one loves her more than me in this school, and I, poor fool of love, slave of her eyes, have sought to satisfy my desire to see her and to own her, now that I know she is single again. So yes, love is responsible for my actions."

"There were two of you!" Lily said.

"An illusion in the dark, there was only me." Daeren answers calmly.

"You ... you are able to create a powder that makes you invisible ... and your first use of it is to spy on the girls' dormitory?" One of the teachers asks.

"Well, what do you want? I'm just a boy... in love."

"You believe it?!?! Love??? This is the most stupid excuse ever!!! He is a pervert and a danger to others!!! He must be expelled !!!"

"Forgive me if I scared you Lily and you have every reason in the world to be angry ... but ... how to say ... I love you and be away from you___"

Lily cuts Daeren off with a kick to the crotch.

"Miss Baker!!! Avoid being violent!"

"Forgive me ma'am."

"I like it better... Mr. Blackwood, you used your knowledge to satisfy your teenage urges and to do so to undermine a student's virtue, breaking rules. 100 points will be taken from Slytherin."

"That's all?" Lily said, offended. "Ma'am, he's a pervert, one of the Rabbits, it's obvious he's been targeting me... his crush on me is just a big excuse. He doesn't even know anything about me."

"Lily Baker," Daeren has a voice full of passion "15 years old, beautiful eyes, loves sports and is generous, she doesn't hesitate to help those in need in front of her. A noble spirit... and a magnificent belly and breast."

Lily slaps Daeren.

"Miss Baker!" Shouted the director "You have already exposed your version to us, but just Mr. Blackwood was found at the scene with only your picture. And although I would like to punish him for his activities... you already did... a black eye... broken bones and torn back muscles..."

"But... a simple disarmament spell can't do so much damage ???"

"You were in shock, you must have had a hard time controlling the strength of your spell... the point is, Mr. Blackwood was badly injured after being hit by your spell. He must stay a few days in the infirmary."

Lily lowers her head.

She can't believe that a single spell can cause so much damage, yet the facts are there, Daeren was badly injured as a result of her spell and her punch, especially the spell. And because of his injuries, the teachers felt sympathy for him.

"And it's not over. If we had to watch all the Hogwarts lovers, we couldn't do our job. This is why Mr. De Roy... as Prefect I ask you to watch the actions of Mr. Blackwood... pay particular attention to his passion for Miss Baker... His tights and his powders are confiscated. We will investigate, if Mr. Blackwood is really that obnoxious character known as the Rabbit, there will be consequences. A letter was sent to each of your parents explaining to them what happened."

The students leave the office while the teachers continue to discuss.

Daeren is seen as the biggest pervert in Hogwarts. Ravenclaw girls as well as boys who have Ravenclaw girlfriends hate him. The nickname "Waste" begins to circulate.

For Lily, rumor has it that she is powerful enough to seriously injure someone with a simple Expelliarmus spell. And also, that she is the lover of a Slytherin, Daeren's declaration of love was quickly spread. It is the latter that hurts her the most. Her chances of getting back with James are reduced to nil.
