《Unknown》Chapter 10

"What's 1 + 1?" Remus asks. You could say that he's conducting an experiment.
"Window," James and Sophia reply in perfect unison.
"What? No, it's two!" Lily exclaims. James and Sophia scoff.
"Hey, James how old is your mum?" Remus asks.
"I dunno, like fifty," James shrugs. Sophia makes a face. Not a surprised one or anything like that, one that says 'wrong answer'.
"Okay," Remus says.
Everyone was sitting in the Great Hall when Sophia noticed a first year Hufflepuff standing near their table and staring at her. She smiles at him.
The boy's eyes go wide before rolling back into his head and he collapses with a nosebleed.
"Oh my god!" Sophia screams. She jumps over the table and kneels at the boy's side. Her hands flutter around him while she panics over what to do. "I think I killed him," Sophia says quietly to her brother and her friends.
James pulls Sophia up next to him on the bench. "Calm down Soph. You didn't kill him. Go get a teacher," James instructs.
Sophia nods and runs off while James kneels at the boys side and takes his pulse. James nods to himself and props the boy against the bench. Sirius hands him a cup of water.
"You can't give that to him, he'll choke," Marlene says.
"No he won't. He's unconscious but his body will still respond to an extent," James says, gently pouring some water into the boys mouth. (For the record I totally just made that shit up. I'm not a doctor)
"Okay, I'll take it from here. Thank you Potter," Mcgonagall says. James nods and backs up.
"I'll carry the boy to the infirmary. You two try and calm Sophie down," Remus says to James and Sirius.
"Okay," Sirius says. Remus picks up the boy and follows Mcgonagall to the Hospital Wing.
Lily was in shock. Also slightly awed. James had known what to do and he had taken care of everyone concerned. He hadn't winked or run his hadn't through his hair once. This wasn't James trying to be cool or sauve. This is just James. Maybe she was wrong about him.

Old Riding Author Lunatic Asylum
Just off the A19, in the dark, incomprehensible lands known as Yorkshire, there lies a town. A town where shadow-silent alleys glint with the secret hunger of knives. Where blood soaks the chipboard window shutters of forsaken terraces stretching off into the night. Where the smog-choked air rattles with the depraved laughter echoing out from clubs that can only generously be described as post-apocalyptic. Well, that’s Middlesbrough. But down the A19 a bit (an impossibly long way down, actually) there lies another town: Raughnen, in the ancient, forgotten Old Riding. It is an equal match in muggery and thuggery alike. It also has magic spells and pointy wizard hats. And now, across the miles and across all sensibilities, a pretty nasty power (a magic one) calls out for its pretty nasty counterpart (a decidedly unmagic one): a proper sound Boro lad. Nothing good can come of it. This is a collection of one novella and four connected short stories: I. A Yorkshire Summoning II. Old Riding Day Trip (the novella) III. Heaven is a Parmo IV. Death on the 66 V. Death on the 257 In total, this comprises 34 chapters totalling around 35,000 words, so try not to worry. It will be over relatively quickly. There are three more short stories with more tenuous links to the core collection: Rush, Paper Round and Scenario 79: Sausage Fingers, all of which can be found in my collection Short Records of Misadventure. Reading these may allow you to make more sense of certain parts of the story, if any sense is to be made at all. NOTE: There are instances of prejudice and discrimination within these stories, including elements of sexism and ageism, which are purely the thoughts and actions of the characters involved and which certainly do not reflect my own views on these matters. ANOTHER NOTE; A WARNING, PERHAPS: This can get a bit weird. In less than 150 pages, we have four viewpoints, first and third person narratives, and a completely disjointed plot with lots of gaps, dead ends and no real resolution. Also ZERO lunatic asylums. It's all a bit odd. If that sort of thing isn't your cup of tea, which it most likely isn't, it might be best to move on now.
