Everyone went silent.
"Am I the only one who's completely lost right now?" Luke asked.
"Is it possible for an aura to change color?" Headmistress McGonagall asked.
"It's never happened before so I would say no-" Jakob said.
"But it's not entirely impossible," Nitesh finished. Jakob nodded.
"What would be the best reason his aura is a different color?" The Headmistress asked.
Jakob looked down at his feet. "The Imperious Curse," He mumbled.
The Headmistress leaned into the back of her chair and started rubbing her temple. "So the student is most likely not our real issue?" Jakob nodded.
"With all due respect Headmistress," Adelaide said, "The Imperius Curse is quite easy to nullify."
"And the pompous side emerges," Nit said.
"I'm just telling the truth," Adelaide said, "I nullified the curse when you used it, Nitesh."
"Didn't we just go through the fact that I have the least potential out of everyone in the Fions family?"
"No, we just went through the fact that you're not me, but I've also nullified the curse when Dax used it."
"But you couldn't when mom used it."
Adelaide bit her lip, " Actually -"
"You're joking, right?" Adelaide shook her head and Nitesh glared at her. "Why am I even surprised at this point?"
"You'll be happy to know I can't nullify the Imperius Curse without fainting, Nitesh."
"You're trying to redeem yourself and it's not working. If you faint when you nullify the Imperius Curse, we're not going to act until we're certain whoever were up against is using it." Nitesh said.
"It has to be the Imperius Curse doesn't it?" Cecillia asked.
"I can think of exactly six other spells that can do the same thing as the Imperius Curse as long as their conditions are met," Nit said. "The other spells depend on the emotions of the victim. These spells are riskier to use because if the victim's emotions change then the curse instantly breaks."
"What emotions are these curses based off of?" The Headmistress asked.
"Normally a negative emotion like hatred, pain, sadness, etcetera," Nit said.
"I'm still utterly lost if anyone wants to come find me," Luke said.
Cecillia groaned and rolled her eyes. "Do you understand the color of people's aura and their magic's aura are the same?" Luke nodded. "Okay then do you understand how whoever we're dealing with could have used a different spell from the Imperius Curse?" Luke shook his head. "Okay, there are different spells that you can use to control someone to do specific things as long as their hatred or any other negative emotion is directed towards that thing. In this case, that student probably has a reason to hate Hogwarts and so someone from the outside is making him attack Hogwarts by controlling him through his hatred."
"Well, yeah, I know that," Luke said, "I'm confused on something else. Since they're being controlled by someone that's also where they're getting this power from right?"
"Most likely," Jakob said.
"And the royal purple aura is the aura of the person controlling him?" Luke asked. Jakob nodded.
"What's your point, Luke?" Cecillia groaned.
"If both of these things are true how come the aura's color of the person who's controlling the Hufflepuff doesn't match the aura of the magical power the Hufflepuff is using?" Luke asked. The other wizards and witches exchanged looks.
