The Children Of Hogwarts

Chapter 2

Ace Continued To Glare And Quickly Gripped His Arm, Twisting It While Turning Them Both Until Sooner Or Later He Was Being Pushed Against The Wall, His Arm Behind His Back. "I Appreciate The Fact That You're Trying To Apologize" As Usual, Her Voice Was High And Feminine, But It Didn't Sound Very Sweet. "But I Don't Exactly Like It When People Treat Me Like A Child. I'm Sure I'm Older Than You, Anyway" She Pushed Her Chin Up With Pride Once Again. "I'll Be Turning 14 In A Week. So.." She Was At A Loss Of Words At First. "S-So You'd Better Respect Your Elder!" With A Huff, She Let Go. Bending Down, She Picked Up The Paper He'd Dropped. "And I Am Interested In This Something You've Got" She Handed It Back To Him And Crossed Her Arms. "So.. Yeah." Again, Feeling Stupid, She Was Lost Searching For Words. "We'll Work Together On It. Let's Go To The Library."

The pain was only felt after the shock had left. "I uh..." Atticus stammered a response as he watched her from the corner of his eye. He was so confused, he meant no Ill will, why was he being treated as such? "Uhm ok yea let's do that..." He took the small slip of paper and headed into the library, he pushed the event into the deep parts of his mind and tried to focus on the task at hand. "So Uhm... there are actually two spells on this, alohamora and accio. The first one being a spell to unlock, the second to acquire." He sent the paper on the table and pulled a spell book off the shelf. "But from everything I could find they aren't used together, not like that..."

Argentum Frowned, Looking At The Spells. "You're Right. I Remember My Grandmother Telling Me About The Spell Alohomora. I'd Learned About Accio On My Own" She Picked Up The Paper And Studied It, Staring Curiously At The Suspicion Chicken-Scratched Writing. "Maybe.. Maybe There's A Spell That Could Help Us Figure Out This One?" She Lowered The Paper And Gazed To Atticus, Waiting For His Answer To Her Suggestion. "I Mean, It's Just A Thought. Or Maybe If We Found A House Elf..?"

Atticus stared at her then the paper, "well do you actually know how to preform these spells?" He sat at the table and looked back at her, "A lot of the time the simplest answer is the right one."

She Hesitated While Staring At The Spells, Then Gave A Soft Nod. "Yes. I've Used Alohomora Before." She Looked To Him Before Continuing, "I Have Yet To Try Out The Summoning Spell, Accio. But I'm Sure It's Simple." She Gave A Nervous Grin Before Pulling Her Wand Out Of Her Pocket. "Shall We Give Them A Try?" She Asked While Standing. Her Gaze Flickered Around The Room, Looking For A Door, Before Settling On One In A Somewhat Secluded Corner. "There" She Pointed. "Want To?"

Atticus nodded and grabbed the paper. He stood and walked with her across the library, past a few students here and there. He studied the paper once more before looking up at with a small smile. "Begin when ready..."

A Shaky Sigh Slipped Past Her Lips, And She Bent Her Knees A Little To Reach Better. With The Flick Of Her Wand, Almost As If Making A Check Mark In The Air, She Whispered "Alohomora." With A Click, The Door Opened Ajar. She Looked To Atticus. "Looks Like That One Works. And The Other One? Accio?" She Stayed Silent For A Second, Thinking, Before Once Again Speaking Up. "Do You Know The Want Motion For That Spell? Isn't It Just A Jab Towards A Location?"

Atticus nodded silently. "But look it isn't really written separate..." He looked at the paper then back at her. "It's one spell." Atticus squatted down and stared at the paper. "Alomahoro Accio..."

She Sighed And Rubbed Her Face, Her Earrings Fluttering As She Did. "Accio Is Like A Conjuring Spell. There's No Logical Reason The Two Could Be Put Together. There's No Relation" She Looked To Him And Crinkled Her Nose. "Not Unless There's A Link In Their History."
