Chapter 45

She then looked beside her, Lucifer was just sitting there with a sense of calm that even Gandhi couldn't rival, but unlike him, she was sure he was losing his temper quickly.

Hermione then looked at Lockhart's desk, who already bolted out of the room. To be honest, she wasn't even surprised anymore.

She then looked back at Lucifer, his face twitch as he struggled to not lose it.

There was even a pixie who knocked the large Dinosaur skeleton over.

A Slytherin girl was under that, looking very petrified, it's going to fall on top of her....

Then just suddenly, Lucifer's eyes opened, showing a bright red, and all of the Pixies still in the classroom suddenly fainted....even the Dinosaur that was just about to attack, paused in mid-air, hanging without support.

She knew he hadn't killed them because they were still breathing.

All of the Pixies suddenly flew into the cage, which shut forcefully and locked with soldered bars.

Hermione looked back to him and saw his red eyes fade back to dark black as he stood up calmly, slinging his bag over the shoulder as the bell rang.

Every other student ran for it, leaving before he did.

She walked out of the classroom behind him, giving it a last look of confusion.

Harry and Ron followed immediately after, "Can you believe him?!"  Ron shouted as they walked away from the destroyed classroom.

"Lockhart's a fraud. All of those books he's written and couldn't even handle Cornish Pixies?" Lucifer said, eyes straight ahead of him, not finding it enjoyable any longer.

"You remember this morning-" Hermione began with a smirk, turning back towards him.

"Not in the mood, Granger," Lucifer said, not looking at her.

"'When you said it wouldn't be that bad-"

"Shut. Up. Granger!"

"And, that I was just overreacting-"

"Last warning."

"No way, I even told you to stop reading those books!" But, Hermione didn't stop her mouth, continued to gloat over Lucifer, finally scoring in their rivalry.

"Petrificus Totalus."

Hermione felt her entire body freeze, her arms snapped to her side and legs slammed together, she wobbled dangerously and toppled over.

Her heart was racing, pulse quickened.

She began to fight it, struggle in place, even forced her fingers to move a couple of times despite the enchantment.

"L-Lucifer, it's not funny," came a trembling voice from somewhere nearby.

"I warned her, Potter-' came another.

"Hermione....do you know, where Lucifer is going?"

"Huh....."

Hermione could now feel her both arms, and legs moving, her breathing was a little heavy and wand clutched tightly in her right hand.

She aimed it at the two of them. Ron looked frightened and Harry already raised his hands in a surrender.

"Bloody hell, I told you mate, she's gone insane!"

"It's just us, Hermione. You zoned out in the middle of our talk...."

"....I did...Uh, where is L-Lucifer?"

Hermione took deep breaths, as she felt the panic leaving her body, muscles relaxed and the adrenaline began to leave her system.

"Don't know, he just marched off after you were ridiculing Lockhart" Harry shook his head.

"....I see...Full body-bind curse...Did I just imagine that?" Hermione looked confused for a moment before she just rubbed her eyes, feeling a little tired now.

Ron, however, still didn't get it, "But, why did you attack us all of a sudden?!"

"....I will go find, Lucifer. Maybe I teased him too much...." Hermione said, while being a little distant, then just ran away from both.

Lucifer stared at the bushy-haired girl's back, who just disappeared from his sight, a guilty expression on his face, "I can't let this happen, again...."

"Sorry, can you please repeat? I didn't get that?" a girl's sweet voice reached his ears, from behind.

"It's nothing...." Lucifer turned around to look at the Slytherin girl, who came over after he ended the talk with Hermione, feeling very grateful.

"Besides, Shouldn't you be joining your friends, for Dinner?" he asked, with a curious look, "Astoria Greengrass..."

"Nope, I just wanted to say thank you again for saving me!" Astoria is almost jumping on her spot, a very cheerful-looking girl, even bunking her own lecture, to visit Lockhart's first....yeah, it's all gotten blown to smithereens now.

"You already d-"

"Lucifer!" a voice shouted his name from behind.

They both looked in the same direction, and realised it's Hermione, putting her wand in her pocket, then running towards Lucifer.

When she arrived, just pounced on his chest, even toppling both of them on the naked floor....if not for Lucifer's balance, his head might have been in pain now.

"There you are, I looked everywhere for....w-what the?" Because, her gaze was busy looking at Lucifer's face, under her, Hermione saw the legs of another person?

She immediately stood up from Lucifer's body, and glared at this unexpected person, "Who is she?!" Hermione demanded, looking very angry, her voice laced with venom.

"Astoria Greengrass, Lucifer's new friend" Only, the said person introduced herself, in a very cool manner.

Not being bothered in the slightest, with this girl's loud voice, look she's even frowning now.

"Friend...hahah... Don't be silly!"

"Just because, my Lucifer took pity on some helpless girl, it doesn't make you friends!" Hermione snorted with a look of disbelief on her face, even pointed out the words 'my' and 'friends' for Astoria Greengrass to understand her claim.

After that, Hermione faced Lucifer, rolling her eyes, arms crossed, waiting for this boy to give an explanation, "She was just thanking me...."

"What else did you talk about?" Hermione's eyes now glanced between the two, with a scrutinizing look.

"I should p-probably go now...." Astoria now, looked slightly embarrassed, she could also be questioned, if be here any longer.

Tried to slip away.....

"Greengrass, come back, you haven't answered my question?!"

"I am going to eat....."

"Lucifer's new friend....what a joke"
