The Curious Case of Lyra Black

Chapter 7

So apparently this person's brother Jacob was trying to help the school from the Cursed Vaults and ended being used. The sibling now is a curse breaker alongside Bill Weasley. Oh and apparently they have family in the United States at Ilvermorny school.

"Wow, they had a major history of disregarding the rules but they ended up being a Prefect in their fifth year," Tonks Continued. "I gave them a few rough patches to go through while they were a Prefect. Also just like you Lyra, and Neville she was a pureblood but never let that interfere with who she made friends with."

"I get it Dora but why did you have to give us this conversation?" I abruptly asked.

"One its an interesting story and two it's time for your next class." She said laughing.

"Oh bloody hell Dora," I looked at her shaking my head.

I took off running out of the hospital wing and started heading to Defense Against the Dark Arts class with Professor Quirll. His class is interesting first week and his first topic is Vampires, werewolves, and the history of Trolls. The man between his nervous stuttering and Weird habit of talking to himself he is quiet the teacher. As many times I heard this man say something about a stone and not yet was rather odd.

"L-Lyra can-n-n you inform-m-m-m the c-c-class how-w-w a-a-a Wizard or-r-r witch can-n-n escape f-f-from a v-vam-vampire?" Professor Quirll asked.

"Uh sir, the way a witch and or wizard or muggles at that feat can escape a vampire is using garlic, or sunlight, as Vampires are deathly allergic to sunlight and have a very low tolerance for the taste or even smell of garlic. It is also well to be known that yet they can live to outstanding years of age as wizards and witches do they can do as much as double or triple the lifespan. They drink the blood of muggles and wizarding folk alike, there has also been research to recently turned vampires can also feed on animals as well. As a news article from the states have recently published." I said standing up, "Adding to they can't possibly see themselves in a mirror, they are known to be dark creatures but are treated as magical folk under the Guidelines for the Treatment of Non-Wizarding Part-Human which has not being watermarked but relayed since the 1800's. Furthermore, not just muggles but wizarding kind can be transformed by these creatures into one's themselves, it is unclear weather wizarding folk who have been turned can in fact use their magical abilities after being turned nor is it clear how the change occurs as they are classified under the living dead." I finished, and at the astonishment of my current class having every eye in the room on me.

"Well done," I heard Headmaster Professor Dumbledore said clapping coming into the class room. "You must have done your research over the summer Lyra?"

"Professor Dumbledore!" I squeaked being startled.

"H-h-Hello Prof-Professor Dumbledore," Quirll acknowledged.

"No sir, I visited family in the states besides visiting some family friends over the holiday," I looked at him shockingly.

"Well, it sounds to me you are already ready to do your O.W.L.s then," he said laughing.

"What-t-t can-n d-do f-f-for this v-vi-visit?" Quirll asked.

"Oh I was actually coming to ask Lyra to the Office for a nice chat, go on for your lesson Professor," he motioned at me to follow.

I followed closely behind Professor Dumbledore as we walked to his office and listened to him talk to himself as well.

"Beautiful day for a game of Quidditch, it's nice warm and bright," he said as a cat gracefully walked the other way down the hall.

"Uh Professor Dumbledore why did you want to speak to me?" I questioned.

"In due time, but I would say that was an interesting turn of events when I walked into the class I originally saw you spacing off, and you were easily able to get back to answer the question quiet throughly, I would almost think you were actually thinking about what to say before he even asked." He said winking at me.
