Description
It's been three years since that unforgettable day...But some good things have come out of it. Libya had managed to keep one close friend who knew her secret. She promised she would protect her and if Libya needed she could feed on her. Libya was scared shitless when her friend said that. She never wanted a person, let alone a friend to allow that. To take that responsibility on herself, but there was her friend, Angel demanding it...

It was a nice day in summer as Libya laid in the cool shade of a tree.

I always like it when we have this kind of weather...Mm...Sleepy..

"Hey, mind if I sit here with you?"

Libya opened her eyes to see another pair of eyes staring right back at her. She nodded as the girl sat down pulling some random things out of her bag. One of them caught Libya's eyes as she read it, "Spells and magic level three." The girl turned to her as she looked her over. She didn't look like she ever step foot in Hogwarts, let along heard of magic, but than again she has heard about special cases. Since the headmaster Doumblre has been there it has been his sole mission, it seemed, to allow any person the right to attend. Did...Was she...

"You know, you can stop staring at me like I'm an alien."

"Huh?"

"Your staring at me with googlily eyes. Almost gawking at me in wonder."

"I am?"

"Yes you are. Your not very bright are you?"

"Depends on how you see smartness or whatever. I like to call it my own special smartness."

"In other words smartness that can't be defined?"

"Yep. Special smartness."

She had to admit she liked the smartness of her naive. In a way it went along with her blunt scars tic mood. She gave a small laugh. Something she hasn't done in ages. It felt good to hear herself laugh again...

"You don't get out much do you?"

"What makes you think that?"

"Because...I have awesome skills at seeing things."

"Really now?"

"You won't be mocking them once you see them in action."

"Impress me then."

In a way she was shock at how smart ass cheeky she was being. She hadn't let this side of her come out very often. Sure she was like this every now and then with her mother, but than those lead into arguments that turned into ugly wars. Sometimes she would almost change, but her mother would stop it before it got too far...

"I know how I can impress you!"

"You don't have to get that excited about this you know.."

"Huh? Why not?"

"Not many people can see me...They tend to run away from me..."

"Well then, I'm going to change that!"

"Why? You don't even know me? So why are-"

"I like making friends. I don't care if they have issues or problems. I like seeing people being happy. I want to become a great wizard so that this world can be just that."

"Sorry to say, but you sound like a broken record. I've heard that many times before and it has never worked out. What makes your skills different from others?"

"I accept everyone and everything. I forgive and don't care how bad it is. Though I won't forgive murder."

"Ah."

Then she won't want to become my friend. I've been close to murdering someone because of what I am and that stupid urge. It's going to end the same with her...Suddenly her chest began to get tight. Crap.

"I-I have to go. You'll have to impress me another time.."

She slowly and shakily got up as she began to walk away.

Why in the world is she reacting to her? Why? She hasn't reacted to someone in years! The last time she reacted it was because the person pissed her off beyond belief. So why all of a sudden-Damn it! Her whole body began to scream as she lurched forwards nearly falling down the small hill.

"Are you all right?"

Just great...My body is starting to change!

"I-I'm fine. Really."

"You don't look fine to me!"

Great she actually sound like she is concern. Genuine concern of me. Genuine. Though she is right, I'm not okay. Libya could all ready see the small amount of grey tints showing in her hair, her skin getting paler, and her eyes starting to glow. If this keeps up, she's going to get hurt...

"Listen to me. You need to get away from me. As far as you can, okay? I'll be fine."

"No!"

"W-Why are you being so-Ah!"

The pain shot through her like a sharp knife as her breathing turned into a steady heavy panting and her features were now visible for everyone to see. God this hurts! Why is it hurting so freaking much? It never hurt this bad before!

"What is happening to you? I need to get you help before something horrible-"

"Forget it! Just run! I know what is happening-Ah!"

That was the last thing she could voice out before she completely changed. There the girl stood there wide eyed. Great she is scared. Why didn't she run? Slowly she found herself reaching towards the girl. No! I refuse to-

"What happened to you...?"

What in hell is she doing standing there for? If she doesn't run soon, I'll-No! Her hand jerked back as she did what she always did when this happened. She fought against it, but that was a pain. It made everything hurt twice as much. It took everything she had inside of her to fight it off. She managed to get her voice back, but it was cold.

"You need to run before I feed on you...Please."

"What is this? What happened to you?"

"You don't need to know! You-"

"No! Your in pain! I can see it in your eyes..."

"Why are you not afraid of me, like the others?"

"The curiosity killed the cat. I'm not afraid, I'm curious and rather shocked Not afraid."

"It-It's going to cost you. Once people see me-"

"They run...I meant what I said earlier. When I become-No, as a wizard I accept everything and everyone. I'm not running away from you. I accept you for who you are."

"I'm half demenotor! I can loose control easily! I can-"

"Can kill me? So what. I'm not running."

The next thing she did made Libya go wide eyed. The girl walked straight up to her and embraced her into a hug.

"What are you doing? I can kill you!"

"But your not, right?"

It floored her, even though it took her everything she had to fight against the urges...This girl was right. She wasn't hurting her or feeding on her. Why? Why did she react to her and now it seems like she has complete control, well almost complete. Why-

"By the way, my name is Angel. What is yours?"

"L-Libya..."

"Pretty name Libya. Say, if you ever need to feed...You can feed on me. I'll be your provider, okay?"

"Are you-"

"Mmm...I may be crazed, may not be. Up to you, but I want to be your friend. If this is your curse then let it be mine too. This way you don't have to be alone. Okay?"

"Your not going to hightail it when things get rough...right?"

"Nope."

Suddenly she felt like the weight of the world was off her shoulders. She sighed as she welcomed the darkness for the first time in her entire life. The sun was setting when Libya woke up in Angel arms. She was shocked as she jumped up in surprise. Bad move. She almost feel face first onto the grass, but Angel caught her in time.

"Where in the world does your straight face comes from?"

"Oh, it's called my straight face?"

"Well, Yay...I-"

"Don't worry about it. I know what you mean. I haven't the faintest clue."

"What? Then are you seriously just bat shit insane?"

"Beats me. I always dive in head first without thinking. Always been a trait I had. Almost like a reaction. My mother honestly doesn't know where I inherited it from. She just smacks her forehead and sighs when I do things like this."

"Really?"

"Yep. It goes along with my skills."

"The skills that you have to impress me with..."

"Yay..."

"Were you serious about all the things you said before? Or are you just playing me? I've been played before..."

"I meant them. I've seen way too many creatures and people get shut out because of things like this..."

"But-"

"Let me guess. You weren't born this way. It happened as an accident."

"...Yes..."

"Then it isn't your fault. So I don't blame you."

Libya was floored. Her mother was more floored when Angel took her home. Libya had to explain everything that had happened to her. Libya's mother was in as much shock as Libya was. Maybe even more. Once everything was talked out Libya's mother grabbed her wand as she placed it on Angel's arm.

"What's this for?"

"This way you can be alerted when she is in danger and..." She hesitated before she went on.

"You'll be marked for Libya's feeding. If it goes that far..."

"Okay."

"Why aren't you scared of all of this?"

"I really don't know, but I want to help Libya. I'm her friend. I want everything and everyone to be accepted for who they are. Not because they are wrong or different."

"Okay dear."

With a small mark there was a small seal. Libya's mother walked over to her daughter as she did the same thing.

"Angel won't die will she?"

"She shouldn't. She is your feed. The feed can not die and neither can you."

"...This is part of the extremely dark arts isn't it?"

"...I'm afraid so. The bond of this and the price of this is to forever wander, eternity. You two will be alive forever, unable to die, to watch as everyone else dies..."

"So in other words, to be alone for eternity..."

"...Yes..."

"Great..."

Libya woke up in the morning like she always did. Laying in her bed sweating and in somewhat pain. She slowly threw the covers off as she laid there for a few seconds before she actually got herself to move off the bed completely. She walked over to her window. She undid the lock as she pushed it opened gently. The cool breeze always made her feel at ease. It was comforting. She walked slowly down the stairs to find her mother seating down at the table...Daydreaming?

"Why do you have a spacey look on your face?"

"..Oh. I do?"

"Yay, you do."

Libya shrugged as she walked over to get herself breakfast. She made herself a plate of two eggs, bacon and a piece of sausage. She sat down across from her mother giving her a strange look.

"Why are you giddy?"

"Giddy?"

"Yes giddy."

She took a small sip of her drink before answering her daughter.

"I've made arrangements for you."

"Arrangement, huh?"

Arrangements were never good when it came to her mother.

"Yes, arrangement. How would you like to go to Hogwarts with Angel this time?"

Libya nearly choked on her breakfast as she gasped, "Excuse me?"

"You heard me."

"Say it again to make sure I'm not using selective hearing on you."

"Very funny. How would you like to go to Hogwarts with Angel this time?"

"...You didn't eat or drink anything that make you go bat shit insane did you?"

"Answer the question Libya. No I didn't for your information."

"...I-I...What about the issues?"

"I have them somewhat fixed."

"Somewhat? That is reassuring."

"Libya..."

"Okay. I-I want to go to Hogwarts."

"I'm glad. I've made it where you'll be taking the Knight Bus tonight to get to The Leaky Cauldron. There you'll meet up with Angel. Angel and you will then take the train from The Leaky Cauldron to Hogwarts."

"How and what made you change your mind all of a sudden?"

"I changed it because...Your right."

"Huh?"

"Your right. I can't keep you locked up here forever. Sure we don't know how to completely control it, but at least with the bond I placed on you and Angel it will lessen the pain somewhat...I know it is still a hurtful situation for the both of you...But now this way you have someone else out there to protect you, beside me. I can't always be there for you. I know that now. Dark creatures, creatures never in Hogwarts history had a provider for them. This way if it comes to worse...You'll have someone there-"

"I know. Thank you. What about Hogwarts though?"

"The headmaster knows of your situation. He knows what Angel has done for you. If anything goes wrong he'll be there to take care of you and Angel. Then if things get to become too much for either one of you two I'll come in...We'll figure it out from there."

"I...See..."

"I know you regret the bond I did on you two. But I was running out of options. Your father didn't leave me much choice..."

"Leave him out of this! I don't want to know or want to miss him. He doesn't exist to me..."

"I'm sorry...I have all your school books and things packed. They are-"

Out of the blue they heard a schreeing of brakes, a horn, people yelling at each other, and a heavy thud.

"What the hell?"

"Libya! Watch your language."

"Fine. Fine. But what was that?"

They both looked outside the door as their eyes widened. There in the middle of the er, well yard was a bus. It looked like it was run down for a bit of years...

"Don't tell me-"

"Wait here."

Libya's mother walked over to the bus as she knocked on the door. A young man came falling out as he landed on the grass, but quickly stood up. Those two talked for a bit before Libya's mother finally came over.

"Well, it looks like the Knight Bus had to come early. There is another wizard that is currently stranded. "The wizard is farther out, so they decided to cut the time-"

"This old ricky bus is the Knight Bus? Your allowing your only child to ride that blasted thing?"

"It will be fine. Yes. This bus is extremely safe."

"I question your sanity right now."

"Libya!"

"What? Look at it! Who in the world is driving that thing?"

"A lisenced driver! That the people in the magic department has chosen."

"Lisenced? Lisenced in what? Ways in the crazy."

"Libya!"

"You honestly can't tell me that you question some parts of this?"

"I trust the people in the magic world and the bus. Now go get your things."

"Right...I question the people-

"LIBYA!"

"OKAY! I'm going."

Libya ran back into the house as she quickly grabbed her things. She rushed saying goodbye to her mother as the person, apparently his name is Stan grabbed her bags and threw them inside.

"If anything is broken, I blame you and every magic person in the world."

"Looks like we have a smart talker on the bus for tonight."

"Right. Is that what you call a smartass without insulting them?"

"Huh? Nah, lady."

"Names Libya, not lady. You call me that or anything remotely like that you'll be sorry. Plus you might be missing quite a few things later on."

"All righty then. Hurry up."

With a jerking start they speed off.
