Chapter Twenty-Eight: Shadows

A/n: Thank you for reading my fanfiction! I'm glad to know that there are still people who continue to read my fanfiction! :)

Hours after John was interrogated by Madam Hooch, Alwyna didn't expect to see him with Thorin at night in the corridors near the Gryffindor Tower before the curfew. Since she didn't want to interrupt the two of them from talking, she chose to hide on the stairs.

Thorin collared John and glared at him. "What you did to Harry was intentional, wasn't it? Why would you choose to hurt someone? Have you forgotten that Harry was Professor Snape's adopted son?"

"Madam Hooch has just finished talking to me and we are still talking about it!" John yelled back at him as he removed Thorin's hand from his robes. "Go back to your bed and sleep, rebel! Death Eaters are the worst!"

Thorin almost laughed at him but due to his anger, he punched his face. "You always hated me since we are first years! As if I don't know that your parents died because they are Death Eaters themselves! You made me hurt Harry and right now, I think you intentionally made me hurt him! Tell me why Captain John!"

John punched him back, then, he collared him. "Do you think it was me? That wasn't me, idiot! Even so, it still feels like it was me because, at that time, I wasn't on the pitch! I was in the audience and disguised as Professor Quirrell! The 'John' you saw was Professor Quirrell! It wasn't me who ordered you to use that bludger!"

Alwyna was surprised. How can it not be him?

"Have you told Madam Hooch?" Thorin asked him. "You were both using Polyjuice Potion?"

"He forced me, okay?" John sighed. "I've told Madam Hooch, and I think she's going to report about it to Professor Dumbledore today."

Thorin helped him up. "You weren't making accusations against our professor, right? I don't even know if I should believe you."

"Why would I lie, Thorin?" John smirked. "I was shocked when he forced me to drink that potion. It was so bad that I tried to vomit it but I was already transforming into the fake Professor Quirrell! Don't you think that I didn't feel scared at that time?"

Even if John had already revealed that John didn't hurt Harry and it wasn't his decision, Thorin still punched him again in the face. "Don't dare insult, anyone, ever again, do you understand?"

"He's a Death Eater!" John spitted blood on the floor. "Most of all, while I was transforming, I saw the back of his turban. He has two heads!"

"Two heads?" Thorin asked him. "How can there be a human have two heads?"

John stared at him and he shook in so much fear. "How can I know? It was still a huge trauma to me when I saw him becoming me while I become him before the match! You may be able to hurt him but at least, you didn't kill him!"

"Was it true then, that Defense Against The Dark Arts is cursed?" Thorin wondered. "If it was, then he won't just be expelled as a teacher. He's a criminal."

"Let's continue this talk in our dormitory," John advised him. "There may be some people who may overhear us."

Thorin agreed with him, and soon, the two of them faced the door. After they had said the password, they went back to their dormitory at the same time.

...

Alwyna decided to move again from the spot she hid from when John and Thorin both decided to go back to their dormitory. Everything that she heard shocked her and she understood at that time why her relatives were called to be in the school. Pure elves could easily detect anyone who may choose darkness and turn to the dark side. Meanwhile, elves who turn to the dark side emit a black shadow. They don't lose their light, they become Dark Spirits. 

After she stepped near the Gryffindor dormitory, she saw that Ron and Hermione had stepped out of their dormitory. She didn't know why two first years would leave in the dead of the night, so, she followed them. Luckily, there was moonlight shining over the castle, and devoid of the noise that the morning usually has. 

The two students, including her, keep descending the stairs until she realized that they were both going to the dungeons where the Slytherin Dormitory's located. She didn't want to startle anyone again when she glows like any other pureblood elves and so, she just silently followed them. She can also just say that she's going to her dormitory as that's where she was supposed to go, anyway, if ever they look back to see if anyone was following them.

Even so, she chose to silently follow them while they were on the stairs. She walked meters away from them to make sure they don't see her. It also made her smile deep inside her when she realized that Ron and Hermione weren't able to recognize her when they looked back to see if anyone was following them. To her, the kids may have thought that she was just a simple moonlight as she was also glowing in the darkness. 

It was a surprise to her, though, when she saw that Harry was actually outside of the Slytherin Dormitory and he was wearing his casual, green shirt. He was also holding a cloak in his hands, too. To make sure that Harry and his friends won't see her, she hid again in a far side corner and but at the time she was supposed to look at them again, she was shocked when the three students suddenly vanished. She realized that she wasn't able to catch them in the act and stop them in an instant whatever they plan to do in the middle of the night. 

"How come they vanished suddenly?" Alwyna wondered. "Was there a spell that can make you invisible? Were there invisibility cloaks?"

While she was so confounded how Harry, Ron, and Harry had disappeared, Alwyna didn't even know that the kids were truly using an invisibility cloak. It was a gift given to Harry by an unknown person at Christmas. Lastly, she was unaware that they had walked farther away from her already.

"Where were they?" Alwyna asked herself. "Were they using a spell or not?"

She chose to look behind her to see if they were behind her but she didn't see anything but torches. What she can only do at that moment was to get back to her dorm and wish them well while they do something. She also hoped that they won't do anything dangerous, too.

"Alwyna!" Leona was so happy to see her. "You're back! Have you seen Harry?"

"Yes, I've seen him but I don't know where he went," she replied to her. "I saw him waiting for Ron and Hermione. After that, I don't know where he went. Why?"

"He seemed to be planning something dangerous this night," she told him. "Draco has just informed me! We have to report to Professor Snape immediately!"

A/n: It had been a long time since I uploaded and so, I hope that you like this chapter! Thank you to all those who are still reading my fanfiction! A few more chapters and this book which had been started a long time ago will soon end! :)
