25. Mobilicorpus

Simon Holden. 25 year old Professor at Beauxbatons was led to the corridor to find an unconscious student. This child was a third year student and well-beloved by his peers for his jokes and all around good nature. Philippe. His friend, Elodie, had run to his office and informed him of the news. He checked the boy’s vitals. Still breathing good. “Get me the Healer. Go now.” AS the girl ran down the hallway, he turned back to his student. What in Merlin’s Beard had happened? This was Beauxbatons not Hogwarts. He touched the boy’s forehead. He pulled his hand away. The boy’s forehead felt as cold as ice. He blinked. This was all so strange. Perhaps the Healer could explain more. He turned the boy’s hand over and saw a mark scribbled on the palm of his hand. Was that a rune? No. At his age? Impossible.

Pulling out his wand, he cast, “Mobilicorpus.” The boy levitated through the air as Simon carefully transported him to the Hospital Wing. He stayed silent, ignoring the worried and confused glances from the students passing, and focused on the matter at hand. This was a case that he could not solve alone.
