[Location: Salvatore Boarding School] [3rd POV]

A week had passed since Hope and Talia's passionate night, and not a lot had happened since then. The two had continued to get closer to one another, and had repeated that night three more times during that week. Hope had also decided to continue calling Talia the nickname she had begun to call her during their passionate night (This being "Daddy").

Besides the romance between Hope and Talia growing, Talia had also continued to grow during this time. She had gone into overdrive in terms of school, and had ended up completing all of her classes, except for Chemistry of Magic, which she was very close to finishing. Due to this, she had a lot more free time to herself, allowing her to train her different classes more and more.

She had finally finished changing a couple of the Harry Potter spells around, with the first being the Killing Curse. She had managed to sort of "Isolate" the killing part of the curse, and got good enough with the spell, that she could now control what the Killing curse killed. This proved to be incredibly overpowered, when she realized that it worked on a lot of different things, and was much more wide reaching in comparison to the regular killing curse.

She had also managed to combine her first Harry Potter spells together, combining the killing curse and diffindo, into a sort of Killing Curse Slash, that killed anyone it hit. Basically just the killing curse but with a wider range. She was now focusing on messing around with more of the useful spells from Harry Potter, like lumos. She wanted to see if she could combine it with something like bombarda, and make a light explosion of some sort.

She had also tried to mess around with the tier magic, but found that it was far more set in its ways, and not nearly as malleable as Harry Potter magic.

Training her light fairy abilities was also important of course, and she had gotten farther and farther in its usage. She was now able to make decent sized illusions, and could cause some genuine damage with light blasts. The next thing she wanted to try, and was working on, was making constructs/weapons out of the light, sorta like a green lantern does with Willpower in DC.

Another very important thing had happened during this time, in the form of her first tail being formed.

[Flashback, 2 days ago]

Talia was currently fighting, and killing a small horde of Goblins she had managed to find. She was mostly killing them physically, as she wanted to train further in martial arts and the physical side of things.

Swiping her gryffindor sword through the neck of a goblin, Talia sighed as she dodged another arrow "You pesky little guys never give up, do you?" Talia said, as she cut the last goblin in the group, in half.

[Level up - Subclass]

[1st Tail - The first tail the user has obtained as a Kitsune. Has the unique ability to block attacks and redirect them at double the power. Currently only works on magical based attacks, can evolve further. All tails can be controlled perfectly by the user]

'Well...that's not bad, not bad at all' Talia thought, as a glow surrounded her, as her kitsune aura appeared, this time sporting a new tail.

'Time to go test this new bad boy out'

[Flashback End]

It was safe to say, the new tail was useful. Talia trained in the tail, and found that she could abuse the fact that she was a magic user, and use it on her own magical attacks. Sadly, there was a limit on how much it could redirect, but she expected for that limit to increase as she grew stronger.

She also found that she could control the tail as if it was another limb. Using this, she realized that she could have it hold and attack with various types of weaponry. She couldn't do that just yet, but she planned on making every single one of her tails, it's own sort of arm.

After going into the dungeon some more, she had managed to get her subclass to level 13, and main class to 19.

During that week, the Necromancer had also been captured by Alaric and Dorian, just as Talia predicted. Talia had been upfront with her desire to end the man there and then, but Alaric had refused to do so, as she wanted to get information out of the creature.

Currently, it was evening, and was the day before Remembrance Day. A sort of holiday to remember all those the students (and faculty) at the school have lost.

Talia and Hope were walking side to side, smiling as they spoke to one another "How about Mars?" Talia said, getting a shake of the head from Hope "Mmm no, I want to go somewhere more normal this time. Like a picnic or a movie" Hearing this, Talia just nodded "Alright then, movie it is"

The two were talking about where they wanted their next date to be. Only to be stopped as they noted Rafael hugging a  girl with smeared mascara and seemingly blood on her forehead. Leaning in closer to Hope, Talia whispered "That is definitely Cassie, isn't it" Hope nodded, slightly shocked. The fact that the necromancer was still bringing people back, was a serious problem.

Hope was initially team Alaric, wanting to find out more about what the Necromancer knew. But after realizing the damage the man could cause, she was team Talia, wanting to kill him now. She didn't understand why Alaric wanted the thing alive, when it was going to cause so much heartache for everyone.

Looking at one another, they nodded and made their way to where the Necromancer was being held. The second Talia walked in, the Necromancer flinched and went quiet. "Dr. Saltzman" Hope said, trying to get Alaric's attention, causing the Necromancer to speak "Oh, there you are, lovely girl. I was wondering if you were going to visit me again. How's your friend, the tall one that was trying to get an illicit peek at me?"

"Currently having a rather emotional reunion with his previously dead girlfriend" Talia said, causing Hope to nod along with her words.

"Poor dear. Her spirit was clinging to him like a vine in winter. It took barely any effort. Just a little wrinkle of the nose, and poof. Young love reborn. You're lucky that's all I did. The way you've treated a man of my stature, you should be ashamed" The Necromancer said, as if he was being insulted.

"Dude, no one knows who you are. Not surprised though, you look like a pruney finger, your magic's pretty shit too" Talia said, causing Hope to giggle at the insult.

"My magic is the best of the best! And it is impossible that no one knows who I am! You wouldn't know excellence if it hit you upside the head!" The Necromancer yelled, getting angry at Talia's insult. Taking a deep breath, he spoke in a calmer tone "If you want an end to all this, simply bring me the knife. And I'll be on my way..."

Hearing his words, Talia and Hope both rolled their eyes, before walking out. "There's no way in hell we're giving him the knife, right?"

Snorting at this, Hope replied "Yeah, no"

"Good, wouldn't want to have to give you a spanking for doing something stupid" Talia said with a teasing grin.

Hope blushed slightly, as she remembered one of the more frisky nights, before shaking her head "S-shut up" Talia chuckled and followed after her girlfriend.

"I'm assuming things are going to well" Talia said, causing Alaric to sigh "He's a diva" Causing Talia to whisper to Hope "Diva? Really?" Hope giggled and then asked "So, what's the plan? I know you don't want to give him the knife, so why not let Talia take care of it? I'm sure she's got magic that can find out what he knows, and stop him from raising loved ones" Hope pointed out.

Alaric shook his head at the idea though, and replied "I will handle it. I have questions that need answers, and we have no idea if Talia's magic would work on someone like him"

"Well I doubt your methods are any better than mine" Talia commented, causing Alaric to turn to the two girls.

"I said I will handle it. Now, just stay away from him" Alaric said, before walking off to Rafael, who was currently sitting on a couch speaking with Cassie.

Watching him walk off, the two looked at one another.

"So...wanna go and take out the pruney dude?"

___________________________________________

That's the end of this chapter. This chapter was mostly just covering what happened in that week that had passed, as well as the start of episode 7. Next chapter is when canon goes off the rails (even more) and things begin to really change.

This was my first time doing a flashback, so sorry if it's bad.

Talia has officially gotten her first tail! Future tails will have even more unique and powerful abilities. Currently, only the tail with the ability can use said ability, but that may change in the future.

Next chapter may or may not be longer, I'm not really sure.

Anyways, have a good day! Point out any mistakes! See you tomorrow!
