Opening my eyes I could see I was in the infirmary. My body was sore all over. What happened yesterday? 

"It seems you are awake, Mr. Kurayami " My head snapped to Snape, standing in the Infirmary's doorway. 

"Professor", I respond. 

"You've been excused from your classes, The teachers have all been informed of your absence", Snape continues walking over to my bed. 

"What happened with the troll?", I asked. Snape looked surprised at my question. 

"You don't remember?", Snape asked with an eyebrow raised. I nodded in response his surprise returning to his usual scowl. "You followed the troll to the Girl's bathroom" I could start to piece together bits and pieces, "unfortunately Potter and Weasley decided to play hero to save Miss Granger". I remembered, outside the bathroom, they were taunting the troll. 

"I remember they were taunting the troll", I say holding my head in pain. 

"Of course, they would", Snape looked just as annoyed as I assume I did. "Now do you remember what happened after you left the bathroom?", Snape asked with a more serious tone that was also concerned.

"That...", I say in a dejected tone. I knew what he was asking about. 

"So you know what I'm talking about", Snape says his scowl deepening.  I look down at my hands in my lap.

"Contrast to what impressions of Ability Users our abilities aren't limitless",  I start. I can already imagine his reaction to this Dumbledore has made it seem as if ability users have no limit. "Unlike wizards, abilities have a limit", Snape motions for me to continue. "If I overuse my ability it'll rebound so to say". 

"So what we saw was-"

"My ability was rebounding", I finished for him. We sat in silence for a moment before I could felt something on my head. Looking up Snape was in front of me with a hand on my head. 

"You did good", That was all he said before leaving. I put my own hand where he was a moment ago. There was a tingly feeling that felt strange. I didn't hate it, but it was a strange feeling.

I got off the bed standing up I was still a bit wobbly on my feet. I grabbed the side table to help me stand. On the table, there was a note and a bottle 'Your injuries are healed, but I'd like you to take this potion every day for a week. One spoonful every night.' I took the bottle with me before leaving the Infirmary. It was still early in the morning so there weren't any students in the halls. Everyone was asleep or in their common rooms.

"M-mr. Kurayami", What? Why is Professor Quirrell out in the halls at this time?

"Yes, Professor?", I said 

"W-what a-are you d-doing out o-of bed so e-early?", Quirrell asks me.

"I'm just returning to my common room, in the commotion yesterday I hit my head and need to stay in the Infirmary", I made up a story quickly to avoid suspicion. 

"V-very w-w-well c-carry o-on", Quirrell continued on leaving me on my own. I don't know why but he gave me a chill up my spine. He reminded me of Mori-san at times, and strangely enough only when he turned around. I shook off the feeling and made my way down to the dungeons, found the stone wall, and entered the standard room. Kuro was in the common room laying on the floor still awake he seemed to be waiting for me. When he saw me he ran up to me and started to lick my face and nuzzle into my shoulder. 

"I'm okay", I don't know whether I was reassuring him or myself. 

"Come on let's get everyone else up", I held Kuro in my arms as we made our way to the room. I got into the shower first. After taking off my shirt I could see a bruise near my ribs, I moved my hands to touch it wincing at the pain. I finished my shower, wrapped up my wounds, and put on my clothes before leaving the bathroom. 

Draco was sleeping on his stomach the blanket was already halfway off the bed. Blaise was sleeping relatively normally except for the leg sticking out from the blankets. Theodore was sleeping on his side with an arm under his pillow. 

"Theo wake up", I shook his shoulders and he slowly woke up. He was grumbling about being woken up, before sitting up half asleep and walking to the bathroom. Next was Draco walking over I nudged his shoulder his eyes fluttered awake. Since the first day, Draco got better at waking up for breakfast. Draco sat up before crossing his arms at me. 

"Where were you? And why do you have a bandage around your head?", Draco asked while I made my way over to Blaise. 

"I fell behind everyone else and hit my head nothing more", I answered while nudging Blaise awake. 

"Is that so", Draco said crossing his arms. 

"Yes", Blasie woke up finally looking at me. "Dude, where were you? We were all worried you got caught by the troll", Blaise said getting out of bed and slipping on his slipper

"I fell behind everyone and slipped one of the professors found me passed out and took me to the infirmary", I responded with the same lie I told everyone.

Draco was still mad but dropped the topic, the three got ready for breakfast before meeting up with Pansy in the common room. 

"Kaiyo!" Pansy ran up to me before wrapping her arms around my shoulders. I tensed up, my shoulders became stiff, and I couldn't move. I was able to regain movement and hid my shock at the action with a nervous smile. 

"good to see you too Pansy", I say patting her back. She let go and we all make our way down to the Great hall we were one of the first people there only a few Hufflepuff, Ravenclaws, and Gryffindors already seated at the long tables. 

Potter, Granger, and Weasley were sitting at Gryfindor's table. Passing by the hourglasses I saw that Gryfindor had 5 more points than before. I find it aggravating that they have rewarded points even after McGonagall found out they did nothing, but aggravate the troll. I knew it was necessary, but still... 

"What are you thinking about", Theo asked. I looked up at him with an eyebrow raised. 

"What do you mean?", I asked back.

"You've been picking at your food", have I? Looking at my food it was obvious I'd been picking at the food. 

"Ah", I started to eat my food. 

"Honesty Saint Potter always has to be the hero", Draco says getting pissy about Potter. I can't deny I was mad too. I kill the troll and three children who just screamed and did nothing but make the job harder to get points for essentially doing nothing. 

"You're not wrong. If anything they should all be punished for running after the troll whether or not they saved someone", I say loud enough for the three to hear. The Weasley glares at me turning redder than his hair, Granger looks ashamed at her actions while shy hiding her face in her hair, and Potter looks conflicted he knows they didn't do anything, but he won't say anything. 

I look to the teacher's table to see Snape giving me a look of pride? Or is it amusement?

I finished my food the rest had to. We left before the Golden trio did heading to our dorms to grab our flags for Quidditch. 

"The look on Potter's face when you called them out was brilliant!", Draco says wrapping an arm around my shoulder.

"Did you see Weasley he turned 50 shades of we just got schooled", Blaise laughed clutching his stomach. 

"And Granger she didn't look so smart then!", Pansy said joining in.

"I have to admit it was fun seeing them all cut down a peg", Theo chimed in with an amused smile. 

We made it to the common room and I followed behind my three roommates. Kuro was grooming himself on my bed. Once he saw us he started to meow for attention going onto his back. 

"Alright, you attention-seeking cat", Blaise said petting Kuro's head and giving his belly a little rub. After a while, Blaise gave up on the 'revenge against the cat' and they bonded. 

Draco and Theo also gave Kuro a head pat since Kuro turned onto his stomach. I walked over and Kuro jumped into my arms. I grabbed my Slytherin flag and scarf. We met back up with Pansy and left for the Quidditch field. 

The game started and our house started to cheer for Slytherin. I never liked loud noises and the cheering started to give me a headache. I felt a hand on my shoulder and turned to see Pansy with a slightly worried expression. 

"Are you okay?", Pansy asked.

"I'm fine I don't particularly like loud areas so this is giving me a slight headache", I say back Pansy looking relieved to know it wasn't anything serious. 

Jordon the announcer was yelling about Slytherins cheating, but there weren't any rules about using bludgers? Why wasn't a neutral party announcing having a Gryfindor announce seemed biased? (I consulted the wiki about this and read through the rules there is nothing about using bludgers to attack the other team).  

The crowd gasps as we turned our heads to see Potter dangling from his broom. The broom was bucking back and forth trying to get Potter to let go and fall to his demise. 

Damn it! I used the shadow from under the broom to keep Potter attached. The shadow takes a rope-like form tying him to the broom. Since the shadow wasn't mind it was much harder to manipulate. I was furring my brows in concentration and breathing slightly heavier from the extra strain. 

The broom stopped bucking and I relaxed the shadow returning to its original state. I tried to mask my tired state. I was able to get away with using my ability because everyone was focused on Harry, but now I need to seem as if I'm alright. 

Gryffindor cheers for their victory as our house grumbles in disappointment.
