The Wolf's Fairy [Hogwarts Setting]

Bullies

*two years later*

"Went running to your sister, did you?" Nott snarled at a small, blonde boy.
He was looking down at his feet, shaking from head to toe. He flinched as she spoke. She smirked at his fearful reaction.

"Actually, that's exactly what I want. The more I scare you, the more annoyed your sister will be. Last time she came upto me and told me that this was her 'last warning'."

Then she leaned in closer to him, and put her hand in his hair, pulling it to bring his ear closer. A cry slipped his throat as she touched his head.

"I'd like to see exactly what it is that she's warning me about."

She strengthened her grip on his hair, but Elena, who had been observing, grabbed her wrist tightly before she could do anything else.
Her face was livid, and her sulphur-colored eyes gave her a distinctly scary look.

Nott's eyes widened. She had never seen such fury from Elena.
"L-let go of me-"

"Unhand my brother."
Nott immediately let go of his hair. Elena's grip, however, was stone-hard on her hand. Nott fumbled to release it.

"Let go!" She yelped.

"What's wrong?" Elena scathingly said, "Not that tough now, are you?"

Nott gave her a dignified look.

"Don't touch me with your filthy-"
Slap.

The force of Elena's hand sent her face sideways.

"I told you this wasn't going to turn out good for you. I warned you. Not once. Not twice. Three times." Elena said in a soft voice, almost maniacal.

She reached out to grab her other hand. The slapped side of Nott's face had turned pink.

Elena held both of her hands. Nott tried to push, pull...everything to free herself, but in vain.
Elena's jaw was set, and she was glaring at her, breathing heavily. She began nodding at her.

"You wanted to scare him huh? Where's all that swag now? Come on, pick on someone your own size, come on." She beckoned her. Nott looked terrified. She wanted to get away from her as quick as possible.
Tears were forming in her eyes.

"Please..." she whispered as she pulled her wrists.

Elena let go. She stumbled backwards, and Elena turned around to check Nigel. He was looking at them with wide eyes, and Elena knew what he was thinking; he called this form of Elena her 'Devil mode'.

From behind, Nott pulled out her wand to cast a curse on her. Elena put her hand on her wand too.

"Densuago!"

"Protego!"

The shielding charm prevented any harm to her. A prefect passing by noticed.

"No dueling!" He yelled.

Nott ran away. Elena turned back to Nigel, giving him a comforting smile. Convinced that she was back to normal, he let out a nervous laugh.

"You're scary in devil mode...but pretty cool too, not gonna lie."

"Elena?" Soleil said from outside the bathroom door.

"What is it?!" She yelled, her voice weak and hoarse.
Soleil remained quiet for a moment. The silence was interrupted by muffled sobs from Elena's side.

"El..." she began, not knowing what to say.

"Save it. It's useless. My hard work is wasted anyways." There was strain in her voice.
