Capítulo 139: Side Story (5) : A Guess.
"Loki! It's clearly him! He's the Heir of Slytherin–"
"No Ron! It's not him!"
"Then why won't you just let us use the polyjuice potion to go talk to him and get him to confess!?"
"Because it's a waste of time!? Are you stupid!? Oh wait, I thought you had any brains…Nevermind."
Ron frowned and Harry tried to keep his mouth shut to avoid laughing at his best friend.
"Harry!" Ron turned to Harry since Hermione wouldn't listen to him, "What do you think!?"
"...I don't know Ron. I mean what reason do we have to believe he's the Heir of Slytherin, I'm more inclined to believe it's Draco. And didn't he help us last time?"
"But he only helped us to steal the Philosopher's stone! Why not both!? Maybe they're covering for each-"
"Silencio.", Hermione whispered, stopping any sound from coming out of Ron's mouth.
"How do you even think of so much nonsense…I've seen girls that are less chatty than you!" Hermione complained before walking out of the room to go to room 2-21 and work on the newspaper.
Meanwhile, Loki looked at the noticeboard in the Slytherin dorms while he was walking out and wondered, "A Duelling Club?"
"I wonder if anything news worthy will happen...."
"Will it be Lockhart running the club or Professor Flitwick? If it was Lockhart it would be fun…"
"Myrtle?" Hermione asked as soon as she stepped into the room seeing her waiting while pretending to sit on a chair.
"Ooo~ Hermione! Will Loki not come here today?"
"I'm sorry, I don't know. I'm not sure if he'll be late or something because he's been looking for something in the library these days."
"Is that soo…would you like to play a round of Arcadia Royale with me?"
"Erm…alright. But just one round if that's alright? I have to organise a few articles before the paper is printed tonight."
"Alright! Thank you!"
"No worries. Loki promised to help you out."
"Hehehe~"
"By the way, are you going to be able to defeat me? I have a gold Professor McGonagall card and a silver Professor Flitwick card in my deck."
"Really!? Can I see!? I have the Platinum Peeves Card if you wanna see!!?? It should all be in that drawer!"
"Sure." Hermione nodded and they spent the next fifteen minutes looking at each other's cards instead of playing the actual game since Daphne's illustrations were beautiful with Professor McGonagall's card having a cat border with the cat playing with a ball of yarn.
Professor Flitwick's card had him handing out his 'secret' muffins that he gave only to the best of the students.
While Peeves's card had a secret feature that allowed one to gaze at his live location in the castle. A feature Loki made after mimicking the Marauder's map.
Meanwhile, at Hagrid's hut, Loki looked at Fang and asked Hagrid with worry, "Hagrid? Did someone kill all your chickens?"
"Yeah. Someone's been out for them. I don't know who and I've been trying to get fang to trace their sent back, but it won't work."
"Fang's not dumb…so it's probably a student who knows how to hide their tracks! But why would they kill your chickens!?"
"That's what I want to find out! This year's truly gone poorly for me! First, it was the Chamber of Secrets! Now it's the chickens!"
"By the way, I heard from someone, that you were arrested earlier for opening the Chamber of Secrets? Are you alright with what's happening in the castle now?"
"Who told you about it!?" Hagrid asked startled.
"Don't worry, not gonna write about it in the newspaper. I heard about it from Friar."
"*sigh* It's not been going well. Heard from Professor Dumbledore that the ministry's looking to send me back to Azkaban for a while so that the parents can be calmed down."
Loki frowned.
"...that's poor taste. Can't Professor Dumbledore do anything to stop it?"
"I doubt he can. Especially when the Minister is out for my head."
"I see…I'll take care of fang while you're gone…so you won't have to worry about him or the animals in the forbidden forest."
"I know! I've seen all the bandages you've tied around the unicorns. They're a little disappointed each time you don't come with me too."
"Hehe~ I just find it a little stuffy in the castle during the nights. So I go out on a trip. With no dark lord killing Unicorns anymore, I find it relaxing to take a stroll in the forest."
"Just don't roam into the Centaur's territory."
"Yep, I make sure I remain with the Unicorns'."
