"Great maybe we can go high--"

But, before Rafe could finish he was interrupted by none other than Vindictus himself. Rafe had no idea why? The rules were it could be used for practice as long as one of the teams didn't have it reserved. Plus, it wasn't like they were attempting Starfish and Sticks or Wronski Feints. Just simple techniques. Rafe could feel her tense up. Elektra spoke of her previous flying experience with that man, and he didn't want her to start dreading flying again. Rafe wrapped his arms around the little second year and grabbed the handle. He turned the broom around and glided down just a few feet before his feet touch the ground. "Is there a problem sir?" Rafe asked with a raised eyebrow.

He stared at the two of them from behind his sunglasses. "What did you give Elektra to drink before you started what appears to be a private flying lesson?"

Twitch.

Elektra looked at Rafe and then at Vindictus looking at his sunglasses but knowing that those eyes were like swords when he stared at both of them. Elektra raised her eyebrow and then decided to answer. "He was just trying to calm my nerves down from flying. It wasn't like he poisoned me." Elektra replied strenly. Her gazed grew with a little bit of anger as she looked at Vindictus.

"Is that so?" he began. "Where did you get this elixir and where is the note giving you permission to have such an elixir as well as have the authorization to administer it to others?"

He was just trying to help me fly. That's it. It wasn't like he was doing anything wrong like try dark magic or something." Now Elektra crossed her arms over her chest and she stuck close to Rafe.

He looked down and there it was, "3 galleons, 11 sickles, 8 knuts for Euphoria Elixir X5." He bought five bottles and now he was down to three. Everything was listed on there of what he bought that day, loads of bottles of Wolfsbane potion, a few Calming Draughts, and monkshood. He handed over the list to Vindictus, "Will this suffice?"


Clearly the elixir was wearing off. It was that Slytherin side coming out. He'd seen it often in others. "It's okay Elektra," he said as he patted her shoulder. "This isn't something to get worked up about."

"Absolutely not. Did Professor Lafay authorize you to brew such a potion and did Headmaster Tate give you permission to give it to others? The last time I checked, Healer Moretti was the only one authorized to give students special elixirs."

He was tempted to state the obvious regarding Flying but held back.

TEN POINTS?! Oh, Bloody Hell not again. She wanted to say something, but just bit her tongue and kept her mouth shut and she huffed. Great more points. The last thing she needed was her whole house out to get her...including Lafay. First year flashback anyone? She sighs and rubs the back of her neck and did everything she could to keep her mouth shut and she looked at Rafe.

He took in deep breaths and closed his eyes to gain back some self control. Why was Vindictus such a jerk toward Elektra? Hadn't he given her enough grief. He opened his eyes and his iris was almost solid black. Rafe couldn't look at Elektra, he had to focus before he completely lost it.




Rafe bit his tongue. It took everything his power to not call Vidictus a git and jump on his broom and fly off with Elektra. Think. Happy. Thoughts.

"No sir," he said bitterly. He clenched his hands in fists at his side. "But with all do respect sir, the last time I checked, Professors didn't undermine students a put them in and perennial fear of flying."

The elixir was from Diagon Alley, it wasn't like he brewed it himself. "Sir, we wouldn't be here in the first place if you learned to control you temper when addressing students and their flying capabilities. Yelling at a student and putting in a permanent consternation of flying is not okay. I was only trying to release some of the strain you had preceded to put on Elektra with a elixir sold by a professional potioneer. I see no harm in the actions I have implemented because I was trying to relieve some emotional scarring you had already administered...Sir!"

It was the kind of stuff that made mum's Scourgify your mouth out. He put his arm around Elektra to try and give her some sense of comfort and that everything was going to be okay, before turning his back on Vindictus and heading up to the castle.
