Besides, she couldnt trust the other girls, and who knows what the lady would do to Splotch if she found her. I have another surprise for you Both of you. I came to talk, I said somewhat firmly as I searched her face. Puh-lease. Granny may have been a witch, but she managed to hail a black taxi with ease and gave him an address. It was done and the aurors were coming, she only needed to stall for time. Was he trying to get around getting in trouble? She stared directly into Emmas eyes, considering. The captain didnt blow her whistle, she trusted that their attention was fixated on her as she withdrew the snitch and its wings unfurled. Ill be back soon.. For anyone who doesnt know her that well, the way she said that would come off sarcastic or even rude, but not for me. Theyd passed a train station close by last nightthats where she needed to go. Regardless, now she could actually see that he was looking pale and sweaty, under his casual attitude. Do you understand?. What if she told Ruby to stop being friends with her? "Good evening, Miss Swan, come on in before you catch a cold." "Thanks," Emma said as she stepped inside the foyer and removed her gloves, coat, and boots. She was shown to the small office shed only been to once with her mother a few years ago. She ushered Regina to the back room where her trunk sat, complete with shiny new locks. If you put this on a wizarding book, any muggle who looks at it or tried to read it will think its about whatever the cover is for. Emma rolled her eyes, but obligingly turned back to her potion. I dont know why they scrape the bottom of the barrel, letting useless wizards like you and your friend even come hereyou clearly have no idea what your doing. I just want to understand., Cora sighed, You shouldnt need an explanation if you were as smart as you think you are. And you cant take that back.. She stood, staring around the room, taking in all the detailsfrom the little chest of drawers to the other books and toys scattered throughout out the roomas if someone had been using the room until they vanished and no one else had ever cleaned it up. Trigger warnings apply, see tags and chapter notes. Finally, they were ready to actually try the spell. There was a group of them that would talk in class and study together, but Regina wasnt sure if the others merely didnt mind that she was there and valued her potions knowledge. #once-upon-a-time I put in eight fire seed pods and. Char hissed out a loud breath and took off to the left. Contrary to their name, Stowe & Packers sold much more than simply bags. Theres a prophecy.. Regina flushed, but before she could say anything, Emma slowly rose from her position against the branch. I wasnt joking. The horse cantered around the classroom. You cant fool me, NavarI know youve got a soft spot now! Emma called back to Regina. Regina scoffed, Dont be silly, I mean with me.. Has Emma done something?, Its Professor Lucas. Granny corrected as she took off her shawl and hat, making it plain this was not going to be a quick visit. Tamara escorted me out after I was done. Emma frowned a little, Why do you think youre having such trouble with the spell? We take them after sixth, so we have more time for that sort of thing., I didnt know the other schools took their version of O.W.L.s at different years. Lily had been lying to her. Then her eyes widened as she took in the little pile of actual gold and silver coins that sat on it. The girls waited another breathless minute before they emerged from behind the dumpster. True, true, Ruby agreed. Madame Pomfrey said shed need to get a prescription from her healer in order to give her anything different or stronger., Besides the price? Regina made a face, Her parents think shes exaggerating how bad it is.. I realized how much I missed being in big cities and it felt good to be back for a bit. Counting on their seeker, a veteran of the team for the past two years, to overestimate their scoring potential was the center of Ravenclaws plan. The third installment in the Magical Misfire series. Yeah, Ruby said, but she didnt sound happy about it. Hello, Guinevere replied, smiling kindly. He was sorry he couldnt have helped Regina, he wished he had. It ended up being Killian Jones of all people, who was over at the Ravenclaw table trying to chat up a fifth year girl who glanced at her and did a double take. Regina! I whimpered slightly and threw the pillow back to her, but she managed to lean out of its way. Her mothers chin? Now lets see about the next step. HenriettaCobbler, AgatahLuka, JaneQDoe, FHamilton81, sapphicday_dreams, and booooooooooomgoesthedynamiite Did you not think I would seek every way to protect my heart?. This is just a small circle to show you how it works. I dont think Im using a happy enough memory, Regina admitted reluctantly. And I told you take make it away.. Everyones gonna think youre so cool! She was back to being excited, bouncing a little in her seat. Yeah, but are we stopping? David asked, confused. Come in, Regina said, beckoning her in and going back to her seat. Emma jogged to catch up to her and they both emerged into a large chamber studded with glittering crystals. Snow, Faye, and I had to work on it quickly since you decided to come early. Maybe he thought you inherited something once you were found again, something that might help. And youre done here. Madame Malkin carefully levitated the pinned robe off of Emma. You the one that called us?, Emma had not gotten this far in her life without the ability to roll with things, Uh, yeah, yup, Emma jumped to her feet, That was me., Great, the man said in the most unenthusiastic voice shed heard. She couldnt see his face, but when he looked up he seemed to eye Regina with greater respect than before. Tom had watched her the entire time and she could tell he was starting to be very suspicious that she was by herself. Everyone was dressed up like McGonagall and the others inside the bank in long robes, pointy hats, and a variety of other odd clothing combinations shed never seen. She sighed wistfully, before noticing Emma and Rubys stares and pinked slightly, Also I hear theres a music shop.. Youre a White? Ruby asked at nearly the same time as Emma, shocked. All of this we can make so that it must be you and only you preforming the steps., Regina thought that over, it would take some extra time to open, but it sounds like it would worth it. Emma froze and just stared at Lily, unable to say anything polite back to that. Before Emma could say anything, she apparated away and Emma was left standing off to the side, awkward but pleased. She tried her best not to define he other thought shed been having, that if they had protected themselves with the curse, she could be waking them up. She fingered the material of her cape and turned a bit in the mirror to see that no damage had been sustained to the outfit. Hey., Abbys face was unreadable beyond vague disinterest, Hey. No one had been able to put the pieces together so thoroughly as Emma had in only a few months. Im just using him for my bareback riding practice. All I know is Grannys being really secretive so it must be something good. Tina was over to Regina in a blur, pulling her up and giving her a fierce hug. I cant wait to hear where you go. And then it never came. Im hoping to find something covert for a lock., Silvia frowned as she studied the trunk, Covert how? Yes?. Its not working, I knew I wasnt magical. Shed set Emma to practicing dicing various ingredients and later she was going to test Emma on her ability to quickly measure out various portion sizesfrom a pinch to a handful, all were actually a precise amount. Regina was actually rather impressed the Hufflepuff had written part of her plan down. Hold out your hand just under his beak, but let him bring his head down, Regina instructed, demonstrating what she meant for Emma. Thank you, is all I could say to her kind words and I gave her a quick hug I couldnt resist. One year after the birth of Robin and Regina's daughter Sophia, everyone's happy. That makes a big difference. She was contemplating whether or not to move into the shadows and wait it out or to call out to whoever might be there when there was a ripple in the air. Granny meanwhile commented on something else, Ah, muggleborn, are you?, Emma flushed, Yeah. She gave a half shrug and awkwardly rubbed the back of her neck, Sort of., Granny raised her eyebrows and even Ruby looked up from her rock cake. Mount up.. Despite not looking like the correct shape at all, the token fit in and stuck. I wanted to make sure you were okay. Regina tried to tell herself she wasnt actually lying. It might have been near one?, Marco put his hand on her arm, Truly, I am sorry. Of course. I was so excited when I made the team., Well, he pulled out his cards again and she groaned. Ruby was acting the same at least and David didnt really understand the gravity of the revelation. Faris took notice of this and changed his direction to shoot straight up while Regina circled after it, a gamble that paid off as he regained precious ground hed lost earlier. Now she had them every night. We shook hands and I returned the smile. NSFW at the end. Its about my parents, Emma said in a raspy voice. Regina could tell the goblin was still not convinced and she knew what was left to seal this deal a bribe. We spent almost the whole day browsing and making notes and eventually, we agreed on setting off on the twenty-eighth. If we can come to a satisfactory agreement, I will deposit the rest at the end of the week., Grundran took the binder and began to look through it while Regina fought against the urge to wring her hands. See, I can handle this myself., Oh yeah? 3) Emma peered into the brightly-lit oval vanity mirror, turning her head this way and that. She sat up more fully and leaned over. Your mum knew them too, right? Could she just remain Yin? Emma did not feel reassured by this statement. Emma rolled her eyes, as Regina narrowed hers, You arent seriously trying to bluff me right now, are you?, Regina scoffed before crossing her arms in front of herself, Fine, fine, she said, disgruntled. Emma smiled at him, glad even he had given up teaching her for now. It was too still, too unreacting. Even more unbelievably shed said shed known Emmas real parents and that theyd been magical too. I told you not to tell anyone about my parents and you promised. Mary Margaret had only found out because shed seen Emma looking at the photos Ruby had leant her. Lets begin.. Arithmancy has something to do with using numbers to predict the future. He told me a lot of stories about constellations, but he only recently started to teach me the more academic side., Nice, Daniel said, sitting up to look at her better. Her voice was a bit weak from shock as she asked, A prophecy? How do your parents feel about you being gone most of the year?, Emma shifted, shed been hoping this wouldnt come up. On the following day, Regina woke up at nine to open the door for Henry. Even though it looked rather silly to Emma, she still felt like someone had told everyone else about a dress code shed never been informed of. Why would I tell on her? They stood there, holding on to each for another minute until Emma reluctantly pulled away. The boy looked very nervous while the girl looked like she would hex him if that got her the spot. Emma quickly began digging in her pockets for some sickles as he pulled her trunk up the steps and down the aisle. Regina ate slowly, trying to come up with a way to bring up a topic that would lead to Mother confessing to murdering someone, but she spent so much of her time avoiding topics like that, not wanting the reminder, that she was failing to figure out how to do it. I meant it as a compliment., Oh, alright I nodded and I focused on my phone again. Ones whod do more than grudgingly pair up with her for a classroom exercise and only because their other friends in the class had already paired up with each other? Its over, Emma, I said and started moving forward when I found a way out of the crowd, dragging Emma with myself. Shed just wanted the dwarves awake long enough to find a new vein of fairy crystals. Random groups of five for the quaffle handling portion.. He didnt even try to confront her about it. Media Coverage; Podcast; Films. What are you doing here?, Emma jumped a bit when Regina tapped her own leg and her charm melted away. It was perfect. They looked very grave indeed and Flitwicks expression in particular when his eyes met hers were filled with such sympathy she felt her spine stiffen even further. Emma Swan is my friend and I wouldnt have it any other way.. Ready? Probably not for a while yet, Sharon didnt seem the type until Mr. Hare came looking for her for a monthly check in. Emma gave her a cheeky grin, regaining all of her equilibrium at a chance to bother the serious-minded witch, Because Im just like that. Then her eyes narrowed, You dont play Quidditch, why are breaking into the broomshed?, Regina opened her mouth, but evidently couldnt think of a good lie. Over the past few years, Neald refused to read any letters his dad sent him and so he had no idea where he was., Oh god, Emma was horrified. Some of the professors have done it too. At least Flitwick hadnt, so Charms should be okay. Im not sure. She didnt even want to come in the first place and I even left my key at home. The owner Tom eyed her a bit when he realized she was alone but didnt say anything, much to her relief. She would find a way to be herselfto be anyone, but her mother. Yes.. "You might as well come in." Regina got up and began shutting down her laptop and gathering her things, seemingly taking Emma's presence as the signal to leave. Hurry, he tossed over his shoulder as he went out the back door. She reached for her mug of tea only to see that it was long since empty. In particular, there were numerous social events that went on during the summer and Cora seemed to have an invite to every single one. It took over a month to prep the potion seeing as Regina wanted to make enough of it so that there would be some leftover for her to use when the time came. Emma fought the urge to fidget. But what? She walked quickly out of the room and didnt look back. Regina ushered them into the room and Tamara spoke up skeptically, This doesnt seem like a very secret place to hide Dark artefacts., I believe she enjoyed the thought of having it close by but hidden, it amused her to think of how close they often were to her secret and yet they did not know it, Regina admitted as she walked across the room to the large fireplace on the opposite wall from the door they came through. They didnt raise me, they didnt know me! Ill explain further once we sit down, can I treat you to a drink?. Even if theyd died, I could have, have grown up with Ruby here! Regina didnt do much besides follow her mothers ordered as she allowed Perdita to dress her and do her make up. Something wrong?, Neal re-focused on her and he leaned forward, his face more intent than shed ever seen it. The tryout for seeker is simple whoever catches the snitch first is on the team. Whats the point of the bloody prophecy then? the drunk man was in her face now, pointing an accusing finger. I was watching the clock; waiting for Emma to leave the bed, but nothing happened. Yes, Mother. Regina needed to find a way to guide the conversation so that her mother would reveal enough incriminating information to satisfy the aurors. Lastly, how would you feel about taking on another fourth-year student? Whos? Emma blinked at the strange question, her mind skipped back to their conversation. At least she was getting better at evading the explosion. She held out a badge, Tamara Jones, auror. What if she could tell Emma wasnt good enough for Ruby?
