《THE DARK ENIGMA • TOM RIDDLE》XXII. Lockhart
Advertisement
I sit boredly in the new professors class as we wait for the douchebag to arrive.
I had been sitting next to malfoy as Hermione sat infront of us, talking to another Slytherin girl.
"I hate that guy." I whisper to Draco as he rolls his eyes.
"Yeah, you made that much obvious from what you said in the store." he whispers back as I snicker slightly before the classroom door opens, revealing Lockhart.
"Let me introduce you to your new defense against the dark arts teacher... me!" Lockhart says as everyone looks at him either disgusted, or annoyed. (Except for some ignorant females)
Word had gotten out what happened in the store rather quickly as even people who respected and believed that Lockhart did do what he says he did in the stories, started to dislike him for that.
"Gilderoy Lockhart." He introduces as I roll my eyes and lay my head down onto my arms.
"Order of Merlin, third class. Honorary member of the dark force defense league and five times winner... of witch weekly's most-charming-smile award." He says as he flashes everyone a smile as I cringe in disgust.
"But I don't talk about that, I didn't get rid of the Brandon banshee by smiling him." He jokes before laughing loudly.
Me and Draco share a look before looking back at the disgusting teacher.
Hell, it seemed even the Weasley spawn and Harry hated him!!
"Now! Be warned... it is my job to arm you against the foulest creatures known to wizardkind." He says as he walks up to the cage which was covered in a cloth at the front.
"You may find yourself facing your woes fears in this room. Know only that no harm can befall you whilst I am here. I must ask you not to scream." He says as he prepares to lift the cloth.

So... is it a boggart? It would make sense with the talk about worst fears...
"It might provoke them!" He shouts as he tears the cloth from the cage as I stare at it blanket.
"Cornish pixies...? That's pathetic..." i mutters as Hermione looks back at me with a slight grin.
"Freshly caught Cornish pixies!" He corrects as the finnegan starts to laugh.
"Laugh if you will, mr. Finnegan, but oxidized can be devilishly tricky little blighters.. lets see what you make of them!" He exclaims before opening the cage, letting the pixies fly everywhere.
The class erupts into panic as the pixies fly everyone.
One had started to pull on my hair as nyx hissed at it before swallowing it whole.
"Round them up, round them up! They're only pixies!" Lockhart exclaims as i mutter a string of curses at him in parseltongue.
Two pixies grabbed Neville's ears, flying him up before dropping him on the chandelier by the back on his robes.
Hermione had hid behind me temporarily as two of the pixies had tried grabbing her hair.
I quickly transfigure a nearby pencil into a small dagger before I stab the two pixies quickly.
"Peskipiksi pesternomi!" Lockhart tries to cast the spell but fails as his wand was taken from him, the pixies break the chain which was holding up the bones of an ancient animal causing it to fall down.
Every ran out of the class room except five of us— and Neville who was.. stuck.
Lockhart looks around in panic before running up the stairs.
"I'll ask you five just to nip the rest of them back into their cage!" He laughs nervously before darting out.
"Oh for fucks sake— immobulus!" I cast quickly grabbing my wand, causing the fairies to slowly float around.
"Why is it always me...?" Neville questions as I scoff before dragging Hermione and Draco out of there.

Our Chaoz; Our Reality (Completed)
Everyone has their own reasons, be it past events, personality or simply company. But most at some point divulge themselves into videogaming, be it for entertainment or more compettitive reasons. In this year and age there are many genres of gaming, one specific genre though still holds on tight to the ledge it was pushed to trying to pull itself back up. MMORPGs were once the top of everybody's list, adventure, combat, storytelling and endless grind in one single game. It was a different life for most, as if a parallel world to our own. You could be a knight indulging yourself in combat, a mage expertly crafting spells of mass destruction or creation. A ranger exploring the land and hunting down prey, an assassin completing contracts and hording the spoils. A troll scamming children out of their hard earned 10 gold and making more hardcore players rage quit for the day. Or something else. Kyle was a simple player, he always picked the strangest classes or jobs and his characters almost looked the same. He played for the combat, he played for the grind and he played for his guild but above all he played for the story. Kyle is a roleplayer, one who enjoys the simple parts of this virtual life. Whether his guild was starting a war or ending one he'd always have his drammatic entrence or exit, his decleration of annihalition or demand of surrender. After all that? He divulged himself in the game's story, the interaction with NPCS (Non Player Characters) and their advanced AI. He went through many questlines, many tales of heroics and many more adventurers of legend but one thing always remained true with his character. Kyle absolutely loved to the play the villain. But when game turns reality, what will he and his guild of twisted personalities do?

Where am I? This is not my room. What is this place. If you were transported to another world, to be an RPG protagonist. Just another average weak human being, with nothing but ten copper coins and a crappy sword. Could you defeat demons, monsters and giants? I think not. In a world inhabited by all manner of unspeakable evil, by devils of both monster and man. Could you right wrongs and fix a broken world? I think not. When both your fellow man, demons and the very divines that hold reality together conspire to corrupt, extort and rape this world. When they toy with you and laugh in amusement as you dance in their palms. Could you alter fate? I think not. So when this is the thorny path ahead of our protagonists, why would you expect them to be able to? They’re just human after all, teenagers at that. Nevertheless, join me on an epic journey that will alter the course of history and reality itself as our protagonists show you what it really means to be human... in an inhuman world.
