Using a cloth to wipe away the excess blood that was on her face, Tenebra finally sighs and admires her "art", or that's what she calls the state that left Mei Lin, appreciating it for a brief moment, until she decides it was time, since as planned, it was a full moon night.

Managing to remove the excess raw blood from her body, Tenebra walks to the same tunnel that she lured Mei Lin into, picking up her clean belongings from the stool and getting dressed, fixing her hair, and checking if everything was in order.

Before leaving, she concentrates, focusing around the tree with her legilimency to see if there were any students nearby, and noticing that it was empty, she leaves, noticing that it was almost dusk, she heads to the foot of the wall where Angelo saw her last time and goes back to reading.

"What a beautiful day." She says, sighing as she looks up at the sky, with a happy smile on her face, but it soon becomes serious, since the only person who mattered wasn't there, at least for the next few seconds, because Angelo soon appears, covered in scratches and looking tired.

"Who would have thought that the Crupes would be so violent, even though we're wizards they seemed angrier than usual." Angelo says laughing.

"You asked for it too, you kept waving that steak to provoke them." Merula says laughing at him, she seemed unharmed from the claws of the Crupes, a canine race with two tails instead of one, that hated Muggles, but loved wizards.

"ANGIE!" Tenebra runs, looking happier than usual, hugging Angelo tightly.

"What a reaction, even i don't get that happy to see you." Merula says mockingly.

"Indeed, you usually get all shy at first and then you start to loosen up." Angelo says laughing, receiving a light punch on the shoulder.

"Shut up, idiot... But what's wrong, haunted kid? Isn't there any bed to stay under? Or a closet to spy on other children?" Merula asks with a slightly mischievous smile.

"Nope, It's not Wednesday yet." Tenebra says with a smile that seemed too genuine.

"Anyway, what do you need, Tenebra? You've been hugging me for a while now." Angelo asks, but she doesn't seem to care.

"It's just that... I'm so happy, and this is the only way to show it to you." She says, with an uncomfortable smile for Merula, but somehow, Angelo finds it kind of cute, Tenebra acting like an affectionate child makes Angelo feel good, for any reason.

"And what made you so happy?" Merula asks curiously.

"I learned more about human anatomy from a book. With what I know now, I can even work at St. Mungo's." She says, extremely happy. Of course, what she learned didn't come from a book, and St. Mungo's would be a personal playground for her.

"Really? I didn't know Hogwarts had books like that. I only saw them in Muggle libraries." Angelo comments, intrigued.

"Whether we like it or not, we have to study the human body too, but only those who follow the path of magical medicine." Merula informs, which slightly impresses Angelo, since he knew that in Muggle schools everyone was required to study about it at a certain age.
