Chapter 93: Last Day

Chapter 93: Last Day

"So... are we playing now?"

I smiled at the cute Gabrielle who couldn't wait to play with the guns. I used to be like that too; I couldn't care less about the complicated stuff. You made the gun? Got it. Let's play now.

No sooner had Gabrielle said that, Fleur picked up another gun and shot water at me. It was slimy green this time.

"Hey! It hasn't even started yet at least give a warning hey stop! "

I dodged here and there, but as she wasn't stopping. Then, I suddenly took cover behind Appoline.

Appoline's eyes widened as she was hit with a face full of slime coloured green liquid, completely soaking her.

"Pfft!" Camille covered her mouth to hide stop her laughter from escaping as her shoulders shook repeatedly.

Appoline slowly wiped the green water away from her face as she looked at her friend laughing at her, completely clean, while she herself covered in slimy green liquid. Then she suddenly moved.

Picking up the first gun that came into her hand, she fired it at Camille who was trying to control her laughter in a very ladylike manner.

*Spray*

"Aaaammmmm" Camille suddenly let out an unladylike high pitched voice but she quickly closed her mouth again as some of the liquid got in.

The colour was golden. Though it looked a bit like piss.

Oops! 'By mistake,' I didn't add enough golden color, so it's a bit faded, making it look like that.

Camille sputtered as she quickly got the golden liquid out of her mouth.

"Pfffft!" This time Appoline was having problems controlling her laughter.

"It's finally started! Yaaayy~" seeing that the fun had started, Gabrielle picked up a pink and orange gun in one hand each and sprayed everyone with them.

As Esme was hit by the water, she also smiled and chose her guns. She picked up purple and dark blue.Then she fired back at Gabrielle. I noted the colours she picked, the next gifts for her would be in those colour.

I ducked down just as a slime coloured water beam passed by me. This time, it hit Camille! She was already busy exchanging volleys with Appoline as the ladies had long shed their lady-like behavior and we're now firing at each other like kids.

Camille's back was facing Fleur, so her hair got covered in slime green liquid.

"Why are you hitting them again and again?!" I asked her as both Appoline and Camille then turned to Fleur, recalling that the first shot had been Fleur's.

Fleur got targeted by the two women together as she tried to run.

From my shoulder, Nyxie was watching Esme and Gabrielle firing at each while having fun and her expression looked quite complicated. It looked like she was contemplating whether she should do something or not.

"How can I not make one for you, my Nyxie?" I asked her as I went to the pile of guns and picked up a black gun whose design was quite different from the rest of the guns. It was a muzzle attached to a muzzle which could snugly fit around Nyxie's muzzle.

(Check out the three meanings muzzle used here and It'll make sense.)

The muzzle wad fit around Nyxie's muzzle and whenever she opens her mouth now, the trigger would open the hole connected to the storage and thus, the muzzle of the gun would fire out water.

In short, Nyxie now has the move Water Sprout. She's a dragon type Pokemon with water type attacks.

I looked at the overjoyed Nyxie as she rubbed her snout against my cheek affectionately. Just as she was about to open her mouth to lick me, I stopped her.

"Don't do that! You'll colour me black."

I turned Nyxie's face towards Esme and Gabrielle. "Now, Nyxie, try opening your mouth."

As soon as Nyxie opened her mouth, a jet of black coloured water was shot out and splashed over girls.

*Blink* *Blink*

No one needed to be told twice, and there was no hesitation. Every single one of them fired without mercy.

And, I noted with bitterness that Everyone had the most fun during the last five minutes, when I was shot one sidedly while I swung helplessly here and there along the force of water. Well, a man's gotta take responsibility after doing the deed. I had my fun ruining them all, this was taking the responsibility.

Though it seemed I had a begin to awaken some unknown power... because some shots, I dodged even without meaning to...

....

After they were done, everyone was dead tired but had a smile on their faces.

Not tired at all, I stood up and casually cleaned myself up with one swing of my wand as I started to put away the remaining of the guns lying on the table back into my bag.

"Everyone, you can keep the ones you want. It's my gift." I said, making everyone even happier. I don't need them right now anyway.

After returning from the Delacours, I began packing my stuff back into all my space extensioned pockets.

"Jilly?" I called out.

My house elf Jilly, who had been with me during the years of loneliness, appeared. I had called her the next after my of arrival here. She had taken a few minutes but she was able to come.

During the past years, I had been giving her pure magic in small quantities, as she said, ,'it be very heavy food. Jilly can't be eating more that a few bites.' As a result, she was now taller that any other house elf and looked well nourish, in contrast to all the other houseelves' skinny and malnourished appearance.

"Jilly, I'll have to go again for some time. In the meanwhile, please take care of my family. You won't feel lonely here."

"Jilly... will look after master's family." Jilly blinked a few very large drops of tears, but still nodded.

I patted her head for some time. When I was all alone during those days, she had always been there. For the fast year, she had returned to the Potter manor since my home was empty all time.

***

The atmosphere at the dinner table that night was a bit subdued. It was my last dinner here, and after this, I might only return on Christmas.

Esme's face had a downward : ( the whole time while Camille tried to cheer everyone up but failed to even keep herself cheerful.

"Dad, did you issue the portkeys?" I asked. Chris the multimillionaire couldn't get the portkeys, but Chris the young master could have them easily.

Durant nodded, "I had them issued the day you asked."

"....."

In Britain, it would have taken weeks and a lot of money for me to get them, unless a lot of people had to travel to the same destination as me, like during Quidditch world cups.

"Great. You'll just have to come with me to meet Dumbledore. You just tell him that the ones who kidnapped me were death eaters and he'll look like he just won a lottery. Just don't express any desire to 'kill' any death eaters ...or kill anyone on that matter. The guy we're taking about has a few screws loose in his head. He's the kind of guy who'd extend his forgiveness and faith even to people like Voldemort and his death Eaters."

Durant nodded seriously while Camille looked sceptical.

"How do you know him so well?"

I just shrugged. "Oh, his deeds are famous in Britain. You just have ask the right people who were actually aware of what's going on. During the war, he actively he led a group of people who fought against Voldemort but only used non-lethal spells. Most of those people were killed since the death Eaters didn't have any such rules. But still, Dumbledore didn't change his ways, and even forced them on other people, as he was the one who opposed the passing of the bill permitting the Aurors to use lethal force on death Eaters. As a result, he got most of the Aurors killed as well."

"...." 2x

"He's just that kind of person. You'd live longer if you stayed in opposition of him than being on his side. So, don't ever get swayed by his words. You just have to pretend to be swayed."
