Start from the beginning
                                    

 Crash, 

Thud,

 Oww.

 I had turned round the corner to collide with the a blonde haired girl wearing a puffy black and Sliver dress. 

"What's the fuck! Live! Is that you?"

 I said trying to find my wand that had fallen out of my hand. 

"Where the fuck did he go?!" Janelle asked, holding out her hand to help me up. 

"who?" 

"Theo Wright!" 

~End of Flashback

~Lives POV 

"Alexa, Janelle is that you?" Pam came rushing to my side trying to help her new friends out.

 "He was right there I don't know how we could have lost him?" Janelle said turning to Alexa, who was as confused as she was. 

"Do you guys see him?" She asked, Pam had no idea what was going on 

"No haven't seen Theo since history of magic" I relied

 "Why are you asking about the Wright boy?" Pam queered still puzzled as to whys her friends were on the floor. 

"We were following him" Alexa said, 

"We saw him leave the common room at around 9 so we decided to follow him, he had a book in his hand and the library's closed at this time of night."Janelle added trying to explain their situation.

 "He looked so worried, checking everywhere he went making sure he didn't get cause doing something" 

"you can't really blame him you were following the poor boy, where did he go?" Pam asked,trying to understand. 

"That's the thing we saw him run down this corridor are you sure he didn't come down it?" I scanned the hallways for any doors and passage ways but there were non. "No he didn't come down here" 

"You can't apparate in hogwarts grounds, so where did he go?" Alexa asked rubbing her temples,

 "Live are you ok!" Tom rushed to my side frantic to see if i was hurt.

 "I'm fine Tom, maybe a bruise or to but nothing a quick episkey can't fix" I tried to reassure him, for once I was an emotion that wasn't greed, fear. "Are you sure?" He's voice was much higher pitched and he was looking all over to see if I was truly fine. 

"And for the record I'm fine to!" Pam said, 

"Yes thank you ever so much for asking how WE are Tom!" Alexa shot with a tone of amusement.

 After checking I was totally fine Tom came round to his senses realising about what he had done he straightened himself up and asked each of the girls the same question. By that Time the rest of the boys had come over too see what the trouble was.

 "Pam what happened?" Nott asked, his gaze matched with hers.

"The footsteps were Alexa and Janelle's" she was cut of by Janelle who was eager to tell her side of the story. "We were following Theo Wright, we was sculling around and we decided to investigate" she puffed her chest out proudly. 

"Well at least your all ok, and we can think about Theo tomorrow, don't stress to much" Avery said giving us a small smile. He was the nicest of the group by far, always knew what to say and seemed like the only one who cared about all of our safety. 

"Thanks Avery" Alexa said.

 "Can i stay with you guys tonight?" Pam mumbled looking down at her feet. 

"Sure you can" Nott replied, wrapping his arm round her shoulder. 

"Aw that's sweet but I think she was taking to us" Alexa and Janelle giggled. 

"Oh, I mean I just want to help" he removed his arm from her shoulder and his cheeks turned light pink. Pam was also blushing. 

"Yes you can Pam, don't worry about it" i replied pushing Nott out of the way and swing my arm around her shoulder. This made the whole group laugh, even Tom let out a smile. 

"Thanks Live, and Thanks for the offer Octavian" at the mention of his first name, he lit up and turned a deeper shade of pink.

 "Boys, always trying to save us, when we're the ones saving them" I whispered in her ear, 

"right" she whispered back. 

"Sleepover on the second night how fun!" Janelle laughed and began marching to the doors of the Slytherin common room. 

"Who said you were invited!" Alexa shouted with a large smile on her face. 

"I did!" Janelle shouted back grinning from ear to ear. 

We made the rest of the way back talking about the night and filling Alexa and Janelle in on what had happen. "What could have scared him so much?" 

 "Your guess is as good as mine" Alexa replied still confused about what happened .

 "He just suddenly started sprinting, no warning" Janelle added.

 "And your sure he had a book in his hand" Tom queried. Ever since I was in some sort of danger he's been very agitated and asking lots of unnecessary questions.

 "Yes I'm sure, I may not be a golden student but I'm not blind" 

"just checking sometime the brain makes up memories to explain situations" 

"I'm not making it up! You believe me Live don't you?" 

"Yes Alexa i believe you, and I may have an idea about what the book was." The whole group stood in anticipation, Waiting for me to reveal the big mystery. "You all say you haven't seen it before, so what if it was in the restricted section?" 

"Only Prefects and Teachers can go into the restricted section" Alexa said 

"When i first met Theo he was on an arm chair opposite the restricted section, he told me about the protection spells that were on the door, and mentioned he had been in before"

Then it clicked, the children's book in the History of magic contained the first story of the Deathly Hallows. They are believed to be a myth, but The Hogwarts library is meant to contain every book imaginable.

 Even ones on myths.
