Forget dragons, there were other human beings here! She turned to the older students in her group and was glad to hear Ilya mention the people around them. "Yes, let's go to the cave and we should ask those adults to rescue us and what else do you guys know about the Common Welsh Green? I'm intrigued."
If she sandwiched some risky thoughts between normal speech about this lesson, the inquisitorial squad wouldn't be able to catch them, right?? She was not even glancing in their direction, even though she really wanted to check where they were, because it would look suspicious. The second year led the way up to the cave, hoping they would meet some kind dragonologists in there. Quote:

That concern, however, vanished as quickly as the Hogwarts grounds did when the portkeys spun them off and away and into.... a DRAGON RESERVE. Louise caught herself when they landed (she had lots of practice with portkeys) and her big green eyes looked around, delight filling her insides. "This is amazing," she whispered, feeling a sense of freedom that she hadn't felt in ages. Being trapped in that castle had really done her in. Louise never wanted to leave this sanctuary.
Maybe they could knock out their hooded friend and run away. "Cave," Louise said in agreement, her feet already taking her away. She ignored the other students idea to ask the other adults to help them because the enemy (inquisitorial squad kid) was still in their midst, and instead chatted about the Common Welsh Green. "They like to hide in the mountains, of course. But they're one of most calm breeds of dragons. They don't particularly like human interaction, but they're less likely to burn us to a crisp." That's what she remembered from her readings, anyway. Quote:

She wasn't in the mood for conversation or trying to charm Ilya (who was one of her favorite people to charm).
But then she heard from Irithel, Phoebe spun on the girl, quickly glancing around to see if any of the Goon Squad was near enough to hear her. "Keep that kind of thing to yourself. No one is dying today, okay? If you want to wander off in search of dragon eggs, that's up to YOU, but don't... don't you dare get someone killed by talking about things like that."
And now she was done being a bossy little Gryffindor, and she was going to climb this mountain. "Don't climb behind me in case I throw myself off the mountain." Quote:

Ever hear that saying about tickling a sleeping dragon? ZZZzzzzZZZzzzzzZZZZZZzzzzzZZZZZ.... ......ZZzzzzZZZZZzzzzzz...... ....ZZZzzzzZZZZzzzZZZZzzzZZZZZzzzzzZZ
Oooh? What were those SHARP, POINTY things?!?!
The Peruvian Vipertooth twins wanted a closer look. They flapped their wings and started their descent towards the group. Sharp! Pointy! They wanted one! Could they has?
Where was his mummyyyyyyyyyyyyy? Why wasn't his mum in the cave? Where was she? She was supposed to bring LUNCH. This baby Welsh Green was getting hungwwwyyyyy.
"Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!!!!"
Maybe his mummy would hear his hungry cries. "RAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!" COME BACK TO THE CAVE, MUMMY!!!!!!!! (AND BRING SHEEP TO EAT!)
It was feeding time and the baby Fireball was getting hungry! And look! SNACKS! "Eeeeeeork!" She squealed with glee, bounding towards the group gathered around the tyre. It wanted a nibble of the brunette first!!!!
And, of course, where there was a baby Fireball, there was always a mother nearby. Hers happened to be watching proudly from behind the neighboring forest.
A dopey Norwegian Ridgeback has taken an interest in your group, eyeing you from the distance. "Eeeeeorrrk!" Come play! Come play!
"Rawwwwk!" He jumped up and down trying to get your attention. "Rawwwwk!" Was it working? Play, pwease? Quote:

His dark eyes surveyed his surroundings, but any intrigue he might’ve otherwise felt at the sight of dragons was tempered with worry. Something was wrong about this field trip. He didn’t know what yet, but he could feel it!
Before he could get a word in edgewise, the rest of the group had already decided to go to the cave. Why does everyone want to go back to Jakkuto the cave? Every gut feeling he had screamed that this was a bad idea. If anything went wrong, he wanted to be as close to the ground as possible! There was less height to fall from there, and probably more eyes watching too. If he thought anyone in his group would listen to him, he might’ve said as much, but he really wasn’t in the mood to argue.
He reluctantly trudged along with the group, not saying a word to anyone so as not to accidentally draw the ire of his groupmates or worse, the hoods. He couldn’t say the wrong thing if he said nothing at all, right? No slipping up if you slip away… He ignored Irithel’s comments, but something he couldn’t ignore? Phoebe James being bossy. No need to worry about that, he thought. He wasn’t about to climb behind her; he was fine staying on the ground for as long as possible. If he was the last one up, he’d be the last one in harm’s way if he was right about the cave being dangerous!
As he waited his turn to climb, he heard a strange noise that sounded like something between a roar and a cry. “Did anyone else hear that?” he wondered out loud. Quote:

One figure followed behind the group of muggleborn scum where one dirty little mudblood (Brynn) made the air just as disgusting as herself with her vomit. Then that insubordinate Hufflepuff (DuckyLinJi) spoke. The figure tapped their wand against their hand menacingly. Did he need another knockback jinx?
Another hooded figure hovered close enough to overhear the young Ravenclaw (Sunflower) and drew their wand. Those comments earned the girl a Langlock. Good luck saying anything with your tongue glued to the roof of your mouth, girl! Shame, that one was a pureblood. She should know better.
The figure following the tea kettle group heard the Gryffindor boy’s (sweetpinkpixie) question. All would be revealed in time...
Phoebe better not charm Ilya today, he was not in a good mood on a missed opportunity to hang out with his grandmother. Just saying.
He continued following the group, keeping quiet as Louise and the younger Ravenclaw girl shared boring information about the dragon. Whatever. There was more interesting stuff happening around them than this conversation. Like, asking adults to rescue them and then Phoebe panicking over such a small comment. Bahaha. Ilya had a lopsided smile. Also, did anyone notice a hooded figure walking super close to them all of the sudden??? Ilya noticed. He didn't know why or what the figure had done, but it was disconcerting. WHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
Yep, yep. "Oh yeah, you'd be deaf if you didn't hear. I think..." Ilya looked backwards where the other students were, but he could not see where the professor was at this time. "... I think it's just the dragon... that we're looking for... although following the sound doesn't sound like such a good idea." He had his wand clutched in his hand. Unlike Ivy, he didn't care if he broke a law if he was trying to save his life! "Let's go back." Was he a coward? Maybe. He was a wise coward, though.
His hair started darkening just slightly... |
