《Mages and Wizards》18. Stalking
Advertisement
Harry nodded. He still had the cloak, but he didn't know what Hermione wanted it for. All he knew was, whatever it was, it would involve the mysterious transfer students. "Good," was her simple reply before walking away, urging the two to follow suit.
"'Moine, what do you need that clock for?" Harry voiced the his and Ron's thoughts. "Why," she began, "to stalk fairy tail of course." Somehow, the knew that that was going to be her answer, they just didn't think she'd say it out loud.
"Are you serious?" Ron practically yelled. "They're transfer students. Sure, they are a bit weird; they act really strange, all of them always cover up a part of their body they normally wouldn't, they all act like family and they're magic is pretty strange. . ." He tried thinking of more ways they were weird.
"My, point, exactly." Hermione pointed out. "Just like Ronald said, they are way to strange. I promise to drop the matter if you help me stalk them, just to prove that I was wrong," she held out her hand to swear it. "Or that I'm right," she mumbled to herself.
"Oh fine," they agreed.
Throughout the day, they watched them during classes and followed them whenever they went somewhere; to the bathroom or the hall, they would follow them everywhere. When classes ended, the golden trio went back to the Gryffindor house and collected Harry's cloak.
"Let's follow them," she started walking towards the door. The other two looked at her, then at each other before shrugging. Hermione continued walking towards the door as the other two-thirds of the golden trio running to catch up to her.

When they found the mages, they instantly put the cloak on. "We should go to the library to research this, 'he-who-must-not-be-named. I've Never even heard of that before." Levy said. "Uh huh," the others nodded. They walked into the library, and without even going towards the bookshelves that were available to students, they went straight towards the forbidden section.

"They're not supposed to be there." Hermione whisper yelled. The other two could only stare in shock, as no one cared about the fact that they went there. They scanned through the sections of books, before picking out everyone that was similar to Voldemort or, 'the-one-who-must-not-be-named'.
They each ended up with about 3-4 books — except for levy, she had about 7 or 8 books, struggling to carry all those books with he small body. They set down the books on a vacant table with a big, THUNK, and sighed. Levy took out 4 pairs of speed reading glasses and handed one to Lucy, one to Erza and one to Wendy (she used the last on for herself).
Those four opened a book and finished one in 3 minutes, while everyone was still trying to finish the first chapter. About half way through the first chapter of the book natsu was reading, he stopped and stood up abruptly, startling everyone else. "What is it Natsu? Did something happen?" Cana asked.
"I smell something," he said before sniffing the air. The golden trio stiffened a bit, wondering if he actually smelled them. "Who?" Romeo asked. "It smells like," he moved closer to where the three were. Before he could sniff again though, Hermione brought out her never-ending bag and brought out something that would block their smell.
"It's gone?" Natsu questioned himself. everyone else sighed. "Natsu, was this just some sort of sad attempt to get out of having to read?" Erza asked. "N — No, I swear!" He trembled a bit, he actually did smell three really familiar scents. "Wendy, gajeel, Laxus, did you three smell anything?" Erza asked, to which they shook their head no.
"Get back to reading." She commanded. Natsu did what he was told without a second thought, not wanting to rile up Erza.

That was pretty much all they did for the rest of the night and the three stalking them got bored. "We should head back now." Ron suggested. Hermione let out an exasperated sigh and reluctantly agreed. The three walked out of library as quiet as possible, not wanting any of them to see them again.
Back in the Gryffindor house, in Harry's room, the three were discussing the only topic that has been on their minds for the past couple of weeks; fairy tail. "Are you satisfied now, 'moine?" Ron asked for the fifth time that hour.
"No, I still believe they're death eaters. They went into the forbidden part of the library. It's forbidden for a reason, and they just waltzed in there, as if they didn't even know it was restricted!" Hermione ranted.
the other two shook their head at her statement, she wasn't going to give on thinking that Fairy tail could be death eaters for a while. "Let's just get some sleep, its getting pretty late, and the others are bound to come back soon." Harry reasoned. "Ok," hermione went back to her own room and went to sleep.
About an hour later, the mages went back to their own houses, still with no information about Voldemort. "That was pointless,' Lucy complained as she and the others were changing. Unbeknownst to them, Hermione was silently listening to their conversation. "We didn't find any of the information we needed, and all the men kept complaining! It was so annoying!"
They continued to rant to each other, still not realizing hermione was awake. "Anyways, let's go to sleep, we do have school tomorrow after all." Erza reminded. "Yeah, yeah." Lucy grumbled while Wendy was already tucking herself in, missing Carla tat would usually do it for her.
They all turned the lights off and went to sleep, hermione as well. Once she saw the light turn off, she fell asleep too. They all had peaceful dreams, preparing for tomorrow.

Polyrhythm Time -- A Bard's Tail
Have you ever met someone who loves what they do so much that they'll skip sleep, food, love and safety to pursue it? What happens if that kind of person encounters a different dimension, yet holds on to their love of music, and specifically of rock drumming.When the world ended at the end of 2057, Kevin Snackenbridge slept through it. He'd been drumming all night. tl;dr-- System eats world -- Monsters and magic ---- LitRpg -- Practice, not levels and stats ---- MC Bard -- support class -- low power ---- MC chooses music over survival skills --tl;dr Kevin trips into the Internal Strength Dimension where Thaumaturgy is king. With the help of a talking plant and several vicious monkeys he learns that the rule is "Change or die." Kevin changes, but remains firmly a drummer/Bard in this high fantasy setting. This is Kevin's adventure, and that of the friends he meets. Kevin has the soul of a real musician. He loves music, specifically rhythm and drumming, and would give his left nut if it would help him drum better. He's a rock drummer, and his language is that of a rock drummer: slanged, duded, and frequently laced with profanity. He focuses on music, and makes decisions that even the author doesn't approve of. However, that means all his decisions are Kevin's decisions, not those of a system-optimizing power-gamer. There's points (All of Arc 2) where he wanders aimlessly. Goals seem foreign to him at points. What would you do if you were a musician, and the world fell apart and you no longer had an audience or band-mates. You'd be kinda lost. Kevin is. Arc 2 is a lot of Kevin not knowing what to do, going with the flow, and not being articulate enough to know that he doesn't know what to do. 1.

Home of Laplace
I opened my eyes to an unfamiliar mountain peak standing tall above me like seeing a skyscraper from the street. Soon the chilling burn of the snow that covered me began to invade my senses and I flung my torso upward, sitting up straight. I grabbed my head in confusion as my eyes surveyed the area around me: The corner of a mountain wall stood menacingly in front of me accompanied by thin, dangerous looking paths on either side. The likes of which only adrenaline-seeking psychopaths would use. I turned my head backwards and felt my heart drop as what looked like an infinitely long freefall met my gaze. I was sitting on the ledge of a snow-covered mountain. "CRKKKK" A heart-shaking croaking sounded from above me further up the mountain and I jolted backwards at the impossibly loud sound. 'Shit, wasn't there nothing behind me?' The sound of cracking stone accompanied the heart dropping sensation of descension. As I plunged down backwards, the last thing I saw was the deep-set brown eyes of that blue-skinned monstrosity further up the mountain. ----------------------------------------------------- Levi Laplace is a former genius biochemistry student that died a simple and laughable death on earth.
