(A.N: Excuse this for being so abnormally slow, but Wattpad was being stupid and decided to delete the chapter I originally planned. 😡😡😡😠😠😠)
"Jerk," a 3rd year Slytherin spat as Icelyn was walking through the charms corridor.
"Blood-traitor," another one hissed.
"Squib lover," another growled, as she passed him.
Icelyn could not take anymore, and whipped her wand out, pressing it against the poor boy's neck. Lily's eyes widened. She knew that Icelyn was incredibly protective over sister, but she didn't know that she'll go this far.
"How dare you! How dare you! Take that back this instant, you dirty little scum!" By this point, Icelyn was absolutely seething. She hadn't spoken this fowl language ever.
"I can't and I won't," the boy smirked.
"Petrificus totalus!" The blonde girl had casted, and the boy turned stiff as a board.
Without hesitating, Icelyn hurried out of the castle, Lily, James, Sirius, Remus and Peter in her wake. Well, not really Peter. He was about 5-6 metres away from the group.
They watched as she retreated into the Forbidden Forest. "She'll only listen to you, mate," James said, frowning. Nodding, the boy with black shoulder length hair ran into the area with thick trees without another word.
"Icelyn!" He had called out multiple times, but there was no answer. As he wandered further into the forest, he could hear soft little whispers.
"Do you think they could find us?" He head softly, and he wandered towards the voice, blindly, might I add.
He could hear the chirps of birds.
"You're right. Maybe one of them will come."
"Hello?" Sirius called out again.
"Over here!" The voice shouted back.
Moments later, Sirius found himself in a glade. Seated in an old tree stump was Icelyn, a green bird in her hair.
"Say hello," Icelyn whispered.
The bird chirped in response making Icelyn smile.
"You talk to animals?" Sirius asked, mildly surprised. Why? Because he knew the girl before him could change her hair colour if she wanted to. He was almost positive that she could do other things as well.
"O'course!" Grinned Icelyn.
Soon they were met with a silence. A comfortable silence.
"How's your life like?" Sirius asked suddenly. You go out sometimes. I notice things."
"Well," Icelyn began, "I was only 7. My mother died of dragon-pox, leaving me with my father and sister, a squib, yes. He re married and his new wife was lady Tremaine, as you know. I was given only scraps, and rags to wear. Stupid, I know. Well, I got my letter, but I didn't go for my first year. I promised Dumbledore that I'll go this year, so here I am."
The two were met with another silence. Sirius was an THE floor, and Icelyn was on the stump, looking around. But what she didn't know, is that all Sirius was looking at, was her.
