Chapter 143: Christmas

Chapter 143: Christmas

The entire castle went to sleep early in hopes of bringing the next day to them even faster. Nick ended up waking up at around five thirty in the morning as his magical senses picked up on a sudden shift in the dorm room. Seeing the piles of presents at the end of each of the beds he figured out that it mas merely the house elves delivering the christmas presents. Checking the time he could only sigh and get up thirty minutes before he normally would and get dressed before quickly making his way to the top of the astronomy tower.-

He made it just in time to watch as the sun rose from from the east and bathed the land in red , purple and yellow for the briefest moment. 'Always worth it to see the rising of the sun just as it is to see it set.' he thought with a smile. He took his time walking back to the common room since he had plenty of time before people started to wake up. He made sure to stop by the workshop to wish Helena and Steve a merry christmas.- Ñøv€l--ß1n hosted the premiere release of this chapter.

After that he went back into the common room and into the dorms right as Ron , Neville and Harry were starting to stir. Nick merely transfigured a chair next to his own presents with a smile and waited for the inevitable excitement to come over the boys. Neville was the first fully awake and active as he eagerly dove into his presents without even noticing that Nick was up. He didn't get much but what he did get seemed to make him light up as he had tears in his eyes and a wide smile as he held a letter that was attached to one of his four gifts.-

"My gift is below that cloak by the way" Nick said with a smile. Harry moved the cloak aside and indeed there lay the shimmering green bracelet with a neat bow on it. "Much like your ring that's no mere accessory but rather will defend you should it need to." Nick said seriously. Ron looked jealous for all of the two minutes it took for him to unbox the hand forged dragon steel wizards chess set that Nick had made him in all it's gleaming metallic glory. He fell in love with the pieces immediately and looked eager to give them a spin.
