Guardian's Promise

More Dangerous than Expected

With a shuttering sigh, the train pulls into the station. All of the students began to shove and push as they vacate the train. Lily glances over at the compartment and blinks in confusion,
"They're gone! It's like they just went poof." Hugo and Albus look over at exclamation and gasp. Lily was right, they were gone, as though they had never been there in the first place.
"How...?" Hugo mutters in shock as Albus opens the compartment to look around. He could have sworn he saw something shining. Lily smacks his arm,
"Come on, we need to go! I have to go now!" She almost yells and he bends down to pick up a necklace,
"We can go." Hugo sighs and drags them out. Lily runs to Hagrid and waves at her family in farewell.
"To the school!" Albus cheers as the settle into their seats surrounded by their loud family members.

The sounds of the loud students made the Headmistress smile slightly as she looked at the creatures in front of her.
"You understand what I expect of you?" She asks seriously.
The creatures nod once together in perfect sync as they smirk. She suppresses a shiver of fear at them. This promise was more dangerous than she had expected. Without their glamours up, their true forms were revealed.
Fredrik's hair was now red, gold and rust colored feathers, his blue-grey eyes standing out from his softly feathered skin. His fingers were like talons and wings rested gently on his back.
Demitrius floated next to him, large gauzy wings gently flapping. His long locks were still messy, and he still had his flower crown, but now he had two antennas sticking out from his hair. His skin was a soft spring green, and his eyes were completely yellow.
Ulrich scowled with his now slit green eyes. His skin was covered in pale silver scales and his fingers had claws. He had two large fangs coming from his mouth and every once and a while a forked tongue tasted the air. Twin fins had taken place of his ears and gills flared on his neck every few seconds.
Creed's large cat-like ears swiveled to listen to different sounds. Her eyes were wolf-like and stared at the Headmistress with curiosity. Her whiskers twitched every once and a while, and her heavy tail swayed back and forth. Her finger tips had razor sharp claws and her teeth were just as deadly. Tiger like markings covered her skin.
The group was in control of the air, ground and water, and they knew it too.
"Put on your glamours once more and find a seat quickly. The new students are almost here." They all nod and pull out their wands. Whispered words took away the characteristics that were not human and they quickly darted into the hall, cloaks over their heads once more.
Just as the door closes the Headmistress hears the first years and smiles, cradling the Sorting Hat as she greets them.
"Welcome to Hogwarts..."
