After you saw something flying from the Astronomy tower to the forest, you continue to fly towards the Forbidden Forest. You haste and then you catch a glimpse of the shadow again. There is definitely something flying some hundreds meters ahead of you towards the Forbidden Forest, in a slow descent.

You tried to cast a spell to illuminate the area and let you see what is this flying thing but you fail and you almost lose control of your broom and almost drop your wand. The flying shadow descends more and more and enters the forest. You are about to cross into the Forbidden Forest's area, which is obviously: forbidden.

Do people really want to be just like Alba?

>>43089018
>>43089073
You turn around and fly towards the Astronomy tower. It's nearly completely dark now other than the lights of the Castle.

When you reach the tower you see someone lying on the top. You land and see that it's Valdis. He has his new telescope with him. He is bleeding and unconscious.

Attempt immediate first aid to stop the bleeding and potentially stabilize.

>C. Other
Bind his wounds, and use his telescope to see what he was looking at.

Lessons from Madame Pomfrey on healing potions/spells may be a good idea.

>>43089273
I'd say fly him to hospital, but I don't know how we can attach an unconscious person to the broom.

>>43089317
Do we even know first aid? Wizards be dum.

>>43089273
>Other
Examine the wounds try to staunch the bleeding while taking a look at the wounds to compare them against the previous ones. Also see if there are other clues and what is seen through the telescope.

Once we have looked at things, we can call for help.

>>43089317
>>43089337
Yeah you know first aid.

Lying on the top, so what got him is probably capable of flight. Can redcaps fly?

>>43089273
>>43089390

Pop the flare spell first and then Administer first aid, if someone hasn't come up by the time we do what we can we need to fly him to the hospital wing

You try to stop his bleeding by binding his wounds. He is bleeding from his neck and the wound seems similar to Glenn's. Yet he looks pale and lost a lot of blood.

You try to stop it as much as you can and cast a flare spell hoping that someone will see and come. The telescope is just broken on the floor. A few minutes pass, you feel like it's eternity and someone climbs the stairs as you can hear. "What is the meaning of this?" asks a voice with no emotions. It is Professor Snape. He goes on to stabilize Valdis while listening to your tale.

"I was practicing my flying when I saw something fly from here towards the Forest. When I came here I found Valdis like this."

"Something attacked him and then flew away to the forest." You tell. "Then I found Valdis like this in here."

"At least you had the intelligence to not follow it to the forest..." he answers while casting some spells on Valdis' wounds. He then casts another charm to levitate Valdis and says "I will bring him to the Hospital Wing. You go back to your house now."

You thank the Professor Snape as he carries on with Valdis and you head back to the Ravenclaw Tower. A second time your friend has been attacked. Third, if you count David too. You starting to feel that this is getting personal. You want revenge.

The Eagle statue ask you the riddle to let you enter as you arrive to the Tower,

"What is so delicate that saying its name breaks it?"

Would reparo be enough for the telescope or would it require advanced magic?

>>43090129
Your mum, m8.

But seriously, silence.

>>43090129
Silence.

>>43090129
Silence.

>>43090129
Quiet.

>>43090153
You can try. You took it with you.

>>43090224

At least take a look at it, if it seems like there were enchantments on it then we probably should take it to Professor Flitwick otherwise a reparo should suffice.

>>43090224
Definitely examine it, at least.

>>43090168
>>43090169
>>43090176
You answer the riddle and enter the Ravenclaw common room. Tim and Glenn are talking about something near the fireplace while Anya and Juliette looks like studying at a nearby table. They seem to be clueless of what happened to Valdis.

You tell to Tim and Glenn about what happened. They are very surprised and sad. Tim looks angry also. Anya seems to get something is up and leaves the table to come next to you and when you tell her the events she gets quite upset too. "Oh my god! What is happening here?! What do you think it was, John?"

"A flying monster I think...maybe a giant bat or...even a vampire." Anya gasps. "I mean Hogwarts is supposed to be a safe place...I don't think any random creature can just fly here and attack someone."

Tim nods. "It is already living inside the Castle or the grounds. It can not enter otherwise from outside I think... what are we going to do?"

Other than preparing ourselves, because I hate to say it but it seems to be targeting our group, we need to write up multiple reports and spread it to our Head of House, the DADA Professor, and the Headmaster. That way none of them can brush it off.

>>43090766

"Well Alba has a plan..." you tell the others of Alba's plan. "A bait??" Anya doesn't seem to like it.

"I mean we can improve it of course... We are Ravenclaw, surely we can make it better." you reply quickly. Glenn surprisingly agrees with the plan. "I think it can work, John. And you are good at potions and you can brew something that will be helpful for a creature like this. Tim is also good at flying and Anya and me are not bad at spells... We can work this out maybe. Alba is good at spells I think too..."

Then you remember about the telescope of Valdis that you brought with you. It is broken and when you try to cast a repairing spell on it, it just makes the glass intact with a big crack on it instead of perfectly repairing it. Well at least the glass is intact now.

Tim also thinks it might be a good idea to be on the look out but with the darkness and limited point of view of the Ravenclaw tower you might miss the creature even if it returns to the Castle.

Also while we're talking to Professor Flitwick can we take him the telescope and ask him to take a look at it?

You tell the others to carry some garlic on them, just in case and then tell Tim and Glenn to be on the look out from different windows at the upstairs of the tower.

Then you proceed to write some notes to the Professor Flitwick, Professor Phyillia and the Headmaster. You are not sure how to deliver it to the Headmaster actually but you will see the other professors in class.

What will you write in the note?

It's worth it confirming the wounds.

You know who would be helpful on the subject of blood sucking, winged beasties who live in the forbidden forest?

Hagrid! But since he doesn't work here...Kettleburn!

>>43091842

On reflection they should know that the wounds are similar, I would certainly hope that they are researching this as well. Hold that out of the letter

>>43091928
He is not a teacher but he is here as Groundskeeper.

You write a detailed note about the prophecy of Glenn and then the events that followed including Alba's reports of sighting a flying bat creature and your own experience with the witnessing of something flying from the Astronomy tower just after Valdis was hurt.

The evening continues eventless with no sightings. Next day at the breakfast you give your notes to the Professors and Professor Flitwick has a talk with you about it. He tells you to completely stay safe and don't go out exploring this things, it is dangerous and that the Professors would handle it. The Headmaster wasn't present.

Honestly I don't think we need to lie about this, it's been very rare that we've been seeking out these problems, they seem to find us. Also I hate to keep harping on it but can we check with the Professor about fixing Valdis' telescope, I think it would be a nice touch to have it fixed when he gets out of the hospital wing. Also did we check it over for any clues, if it was knocked over in the fight and cracked it might have snagged something there.

"Sir, are there any protection charms or something useful you could teach me? David and Glenn were attacked outside, but Valdis was inside the castle proper when he was attacked last night. I fear this thing may be coming for us, whether we go look for it or not."

Maybe we can magically see what we was seeing at the time? Give us a clue.

Look, if a nigga's gonna be poppin' up in my hood, fuckin' with my friends, and tryin' to steal shit that ain't his somebody's gonna have to teach a nigga a lesson. Just don't have to make that lesson public is all. All you need is you, your homies, and something to break off in a nigga's ass.

"Sir, are there any protection charms or something useful you could teach me? David and Glenn were attacked outside, but Valdis was inside the castle proper when he was attacked last night. I fear this thing may be coming for us, whether we go look for it or not."

Professor thinks for a bit running his hand through his long beard. "Do not worry my boy, everything is under the control of the Professors. But... to just to ease your worries I can teach you something that will protect you. I am sure your Defence Against the Dark Arts teacher already have been teaching you many useful stuff. But why not. Meet with me tonight in my study."

Then he walks away but suddenly stops and calls for you. "Oh and Apise...nice work on finding Mr. Viridian. 20 Points to Ravenclaw."

Get information first. Although I doubt he'll remember much like everyone else.

On a side note, are all those attacked 'purebloods'? I know David and Valdis are, but I couldn't remember about the others who were attacked.

Can...can we Husbando Valdis?

>>43092679
Huh, so it's probably not a kill all purebloods animagus then. Although saying that Malus said us and David were the same, so it could just be someone that doesn't like people who come from any wizard stock. Which seems pretty stupid if it's a student.

>>43092801
No he makes us lose points too often.

You find Alba during the breakfast and tell her about the recent events. She seems more decisive than ever. "I told you we should have done my plan! Now we have to act before it will be too late again." You tell her that you have considered her plan and made some improvements, and tell her you will give her a signal when you want to do it.

Then you try to visit your friend Valdis at the Hospital Wing. Madam Pomfrey says normally they are not accepting visitors but since you saved him, she will let you for this one time.

He looks very pale and looks asleep. Pomfrey tells you he hasn't awaken yet but he is stabilized. There are some different colors of raisin, a bottle of purple-red colored potion and two other little vials of potions with green and yellow liquid inside. Valdis' neck is bandaged and he looks at peace while sleeping.

>>43092893
>>Ask what are those potions

>>43092833
Well David told you he was a halfblood but he has a thing for pureblood people. He is like a fanboy for them. I am guessing Malus didn't bothered for this fact and just assumed he was a pureblood OR he was talking about the supremacists in general and implied you two are like that too.

Just speculating of course.

>>43092893
>Ask what attacked him
>Ask what are those potions

Can't decide which. We probably need to know what the potions are so we can make them for our inevitable confrontation. But we could also finally work out what's actually attacking people.

We're pureblood. The only thing we're not good at is appeasing the peasants.

>>43093015
Nah, we all know John will become the greatest dealer of magical drugs of all time because of his magical cancer.

>>43093015

"What are these potions?" You ask.
"Well this one is a Blood Replenishing potion, it helps with the blood he lost and this green one is to see if he was poisoned and this yellow one is-"

"What are you doing here Mr. Apise! No students allowed!" It's the Gryffindor Househead Professor McGonagall. "Out, out now this instance." You quickly head towards the door. "I know you are worried about your friend. But do not worry he will be all right." She says as if remembered at last minute you are a child with a wounded friend. "Oh and... spend more time in your Transfigurations then walking around"

You leave the hospital wing.

You meet with Glenn on the way and you both start walking towards the Ravenclaw. "Yeah let's go to the Tower, John. I don't feel like studying now. I think it's best you also come with me."

>>43093916
>Go to Ravenclaw

Fine. I still think we should not go there alone, but...

OK, fine, goto Ravenclaw, but make him do the Riddle. Want to make sure we're at least not bringing someone into the tower who shouldn't be there.

>>43094111
Indeed.

Could be a polyjuice potion or a glamour.

You continue walking towards the Ravenclaw tower with Glenn. "So what's going on?" you ask, suspicious. "Heh? What? Oh nothing. What do you mean?" After a bit more walking you finally reach the Tower. Glenn answers the riddle and the door opens.

Nothing seems out of the ordinary at first. Then suddenly a flash and some strange lights and confetti gets launched from several wands.

Then you hear the annoying melody and remember it's 17th of March.

"Happy birthday to youuuuuuuu!" Glenn looks proud with a sly smile on his face goes on to join the others. Most of your friends are here Anya, Tim, Alice, Juliette and Bryan and some other older students who seems to just joined in for the fun and free cake.

Yes. Push all this attack nonsense aside and get back to the problem at hand.

Transfiguration and...what else are we bad at?

What aren't we great at. I guess I should ask.

Glenn says everyone helped with the cake and then they reveal a nice Snitch shaped birthday cake with candles on. Anya and Glenn also gave you presents. Each gift you a book. Anya says since you are interested at potions and cooking is kind of like potions and she knows you don't know much stuff about Muggles she gives you a copy of " Cooking the Muggle Way" by Mordicus Egg. Glenn gives you a magical self-help book called " Where There's a Wand, There's a Way" You thank them and then Tim reveals another package for you. "Go on open it!" he says smirking.

It's a jersey of the Quidditch team Wimbourne Wasps. "Now you will make a team with Cordelia!" he says making everyone laugh. Then someone shouts "blow the candles!"

You are about to blow them. You make a wish.

You think "I hope Hogwarts will always be a home to me!" You feel loved and warm after this surprise party by your friends. You blow the candles.

You spend the party with your friends. Also meeting with some new older ones. Anthony arrives at a later hour and also congratulates you. "I hope you wished for the Quidditch cup!" he says.

Cordelia seems to enjoy the cake as well. Getting her face and antennas covered with some cake.

You chat more with Juliette about Transfiguration, which is her favorite class. "I think that Transfiguration is more elegant and superior to other types of magic." she says with confidence. "Transfiguration is achieved through concentration, precise wand movements, and the proper pronunciation of an incantation...you just need to concentrate a lot...like really a lot. It is much more hard than charms or other classes. But it is the most rewarding. Did you know that some wizards and witches can transform themselves into animals at will? This can only be achieved after mastering Transfiguration... how I wish to do this!" She seems really passionate about this class.

She tells you she would like to be a rein deer. You ask what does she know about metamorphmagus and animagus. She tells you one is hereditary while animagus is something you can learn. "Of course you need to be registered also." She tells you about the animagi registration system of the Ministry. "For example Professor McGonagall is a registered animagus and she can turn into a cat" She says.

You ask for some help to learn Transfigurations better. She tells you "Why not?" and promises to help when she has free time.

You head to sleep and start the next day in the morning. Mother and Father has sent you letters for your birthday. Mother also complains that you write less and you should be careful of what is going on in Hogwarts. It seems the stories are out of the castle also.

Your cousin comes up to you in the breakfast and celebrates your birthday. "Sorry for being one day late" he says and gives you a small vial. It's a Ten Second Pimple Vanisher. "In case you need it!" he says.

Anya is reading the Prophet, an old man is on the cover with the title says, "Bartemius Crouch, a hardened hero of the Ministry or a heartless father?"

Glenn reads a letter from his family and others just eat breakfast normally.

You head to the Herbology class after the breakfast and then it's the Defence Against the Dark Arts class. Professor doesn't talk to you about your report and directly continues to the class.

She tells the class about the statue-like creatures called Gargoyles and their history and behaviours. This is not the common class with Gryffindor so you don't see Alba or Malus, it's just Ravenclaw.

After the class is dismissed she calls you before you leave.

"I have read your...report, Mr. Apise." she says with a thin smile. "You are very brave indeed and I thank you for saving that poor boy's life with your timely arrival." she speaks in a soft voice. "Yet I do not understand why didn't you come to me directly earlier?" She asks emotionless.

Then you reply "To be honest I thought you had already been filled in on the course of events. A number of students have been attacked and I thought the Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher would be one of the first to be kept abreast of the situation."

She just nods and answers "Well, Mr. Apise, you should have come to me when this Prophecy occurred. Of course I know about the...attacks as you said, yet knowing that someone has an information like this, a prophecy, would have been a useful information for me."

>I didn't know it was a real prophecy until it happened (lie)

>>43096463

"You are right, I am sorry Professor." You apologize. She nods. "Be more careful in the future dear boy. Information like this can help save lives. I have already talked with your friend Mr. DeMange, about his prophecy and skill. He will also come to me if he sees anything again. You should do the same so we can all find a way to battle with this attacker. Vell, you kan leave now."

And with that you are dismissed.

The team practices for about an hour and manage to catch the mock Snitch for a few times and practice more on your broom control. Anthony seems impressed. "You are good, John. For a first timer any way. I am expecting more from you in the years to come. We will dominate this school!"

You also feel proud.

A week passes with you attending the classes and doing your home work and nothing important happens. Finally Valdis gets out of the Hospital Wing.

Valdis seems a bit more serious than his old self but other than he looks normal. When you ask about what happened he starts to tell his story. You, Anya, Glenn, Tim and Alba is present.

"Well I was just trying my new telescope, that my grandfather gave me as a birthday present. So I went to the Astronomy tower. I was waiting a cloud to pass so I can have a good look at the Camelopardalis stars... then I started to just looking around and I saw you, John."

"What do you mean?" asks Alba excited.

"I mean I saw him flying near the Quidditch pitch. It was getting dark, you were practicing I think. Then I saw or I think I saw some students walking towards the lake but before I could concentrate on that, I heard someone walking up the stairs to the tower. Then I think the cloud passes so I needed to adjust my telescope but all I remember a darkness after this and something caught me from my shoulders. After that I woke up in the hospital wing."

"What do you make of it?" asks Glenn to you.

>It could be anything, he was sleeping for a long time we can't trust his memory
>So something arrived from air to attack you from your shoulders I think, probably something flying.
>Something about those students you saw...
>Something about that footstep you heard...
>Other

>>43097322
Do we still have that truth potion Snape gave us? Small dose of that could help.

>>43097322
>>Something about that footstep you heard...

Perhaps somebody came up from behind you and then as a method of escape or necessity had to fly into the forest from the tower.

>>43097322
>Something about that footstep you heard...

>>43097322
>>Something about that footstep you heard...
"It may sound as a weird question but those foosteps... How "light" were they? I mean, how did they sound? Heavy, like someone large with a boot or shoe or light?"

>>43097322
>Something about that footstep you heard...

>>43097322
>>Something about that footstep you heard...
Tell the dada teacher about it.

>>43097417
Snape gave you Unctuous Unction which is for:

>It causes the drinker to believe that whomever gave the potion to him or her is their best friend

>>43097493
Oh.

For some reason I was thinking of another potion.

>>43097493

Yeah still trying to think of a way to use that that isn't fucking creepy as shit

>>43097505
Slip it into Snape's drink, get him to make us two more vials, rinse and repeat and we have an infinite amount, pour it into the water supply and be most loved person ever.

>>43097535
What if we just asked snape if he would be fine being our friend for a day
Who knows, he might be into it

>>43097535

Pretty sure I specified a plan that didn't involve being creepy as shit. Seriously the more I think about it the more I wonder if magic gradually warps the adult wizards view of reality to the point where Snape can honestly think "Hey, you know what would be a great reward for a pre-adolescent just entering a boarding school and possibly spending a significant amount of time away from friends and family for the first time? A fucking emotional control potion to make someone their best friend. Fuck yeah."

>>43097605
Snape must think we're shitty at making friends.

>>43097422
>>43097429
>>43097455
>>43097465
>>43097486
"Well so you heard some footsteps... do you remember how light were they?" He thinks for a bit. "I think it was like a normal footstep. Wasn't so loud or anything."

You nod and then say "Perhaps somebody came up from behind you and after attacking you flew away from the tower."

Anya protests. "This is unlikely... how can someone enter the castle and then fly away? Then it means it is not an animal or creature but a person..."

"Probably someone who is into Dark Arts and maybe talented with Animagus or Metamorphmagus...probably a Slytherin." says Alba.

"Maybe someone that has a kind of animal transformation as a natural ability like a Metamorph but I dont know....more weird?" Glenn ponders.

"Maybe someone who can turn into a bat?" Alba concludes.

"I think it's that Goblin with a broomstick...or an ability to fly. You know Goblin magic is stranger than ours." Tim thinks out loud.

Many theories for you to think about.

>Thanks everyone for joining tonight. See you next time, I'll be lurking a bit more for chitchat.

>Follow us on twitter to get the news: @JVApiseQuest

>Vote for us in the archive!

Valdis then takes out a letter and waves it. "Also my father wrote to me about this incident. He told me to thank you and invite you to our house after the school for this summer to hang out and stuff. He wants to thank you for coming in time to save me I suppose... Well thanks really, John, you saved my life."

>See you next time with Gryffindor v. Slytherin match opening.

>>43097605
Wizards suck at common sense and logic and are quite stupid at some basic things. Also their society is very backwards.

Snape gave you a small vial which will only for a limited amount of time also with limited effects I suppose. I don't think he would give you a perfect batch of that potion with master effects.

>>43097624

Well we're being friendly to him and in his experience the people who do that probably don't have many friends. So yeah solid theory

>>43097640
Gryffindor vs Slytherin? GO ALB- I mean... GO GRYFFINDOR!

Also, when is the next one?

And more important: What is John going to eat for breakfast on the day of the Great Game?

>>43097640
Qudditch match, get hyped. Do you have a copy of the leaderboards?

>>43097752
Hufflepuff 2 wins
Ravenclaw 2 wins
Slytherin 0 wins
Gryffindor 0 wins

Since it will be 3 win for one team, the scores are not necessary to decide the Cup winner. It will be either John's team or Hufflepuff. The Gryffindor and Slytherin are also focused on their own rivalry since they have no chance to win the Cup anymore. So pretty intense 2 last matches coming up.

>>43097790
Ah thanks, can't wait for next time then
