AMEILE RAISED A BROW once Ophiuchus had explained it to her.
"I'm definitely sure I didn't take any drugs today." She said, before sitting by Ophiuchus.
"Then again, I shouldn't be surprised at this point." Amelie looked through her bag, as she began to fix her makeup and hair.
"What does that mean?" Ophiuchus said, and Amelie gave him a pointed look.
"ᴡʜᴀᴛ ᴅᴏ ʏᴏᴜ ᴛʜɪɴᴋ? ᴍɪɢʜᴛ ɪ ʀᴇᴍɪɴᴅ ʏᴏᴜ ᴏғ ᴡʜᴀᴛ ʜᴀᴘᴘᴇɴᴇᴅ ᴏɴʟʏ ᴀ ᴡᴇᴇᴋ ᴀɢᴏ?" She spoke in parseltounge, making many gasp as they couldn't believe they were hearing parseltounge in person.
"ɴᴏ, ʏᴏᴜ ᴍᴀʏ ɴᴏᴛ." Ophiuchus hissed back.
The pair then went into a conversation in parseltounge, nobody understanding them but Ophelia. Whom couldn't believe what they were saying to each other.
"ɪ ᴡɪʟʟ ғᴜᴄᴋ ʏᴏᴜ sᴇɴsᴇʟᴇss ɪғ ʏᴏᴜ ᴋᴇᴇᴘ ᴜᴘ ᴛʜᴀᴛ ʙɪᴛᴄʜʏ ᴀᴛᴛɪᴛᴜᴅᴇ." Ophiuchus glared.
"ᴛʀʏ ᴍᴇ." She hissed as she finished fixing herself up, before flipping him off.
"ᴅɪᴅ ʏᴏᴜ ᴊᴜsᴛ...?" He raised a brow.
"ʏᴇᴀʜ, ɪ ᴅɪᴅ." Amelie smiled sarcastically.
"ɢᴏ ᴏɴ. ᴅᴏ ɪᴛ ᴀɢᴀɪɴ. ɪ ᴅᴀʀᴇ ʏᴏᴜ." He challenge.
Amelie gladly accepted as she flipped him off again this time with both fingers.
"ʜᴇʀᴇ ʟɪᴇs ᴛʜᴇ ʙɪᴛᴄʜ ᴡʜᴏ ᴛʜᴏᴜɢʜᴛ ᴛᴏᴅᴀʏ ᴡᴀs ᴛʜᴇ ᴅᴀʏ, ᴀɴᴅ ɪ ᴡᴀs ᴛʜᴇ ᴏɴᴄᴇ..." Ophiuchus hissed ominously.
"ᴅɪᴅ ʏᴏᴜ ᴊᴜsᴛ sᴛᴀʀᴛ ᴍʏ ᴇᴜʟᴏɢʏ?" She asked.
"ʏᴇs, ʏᴇs ɪ ᴅɪᴅ." He said.
Before Ophiuchus could get a hold on Amelie she beat him to it. She smacked him in the face with her extra pair of stilettos she keeps inside of her Louis Vuitton bag that had an expansion charm.
Many gasped again.
Amelie smacked Ophiuchus Hesperos Lestrange, in his face with stilettos of all things. Many inhaled a sharp breath, waiting for his reaction.
All but Elias who broke the tension by laughing, followed by Draconian, and then the rest of his court, and slowly everyone else followed.
Especially after seeing the light red mark outline of the bottom sole of Amelie's stilettos, and Ophiuchus's face, that remained unfazed expect for his right eye twitching in annoyance.
"Not today, Satan." Amelie laughed.
Narrowed his eyes at her, before grabbed both sides of her face with his large veiny hands, and began to pull and pinch them.
"You bitch." Ophiuchus glared.
"Feh-wet goUU offpt mewh phace..!" Amelie tried to say yet her words sounded like babbling baby, as he just continued to squish her face.
After a few more moments of this he finally lets go once he is satisfied.
Amelie had then began to rub her now red face trying to sooth the pain.
"Your so mean." Amelie whined.
"Shut up, can we get back to the movie." Ophiuchus asked, more like demanded.
Astrophel was dead set on seeing Ophelia go off to Hogwarts, as Beauxbaton didn't start school till a few days from now.
"Over protective much?"
"You don't know the half of it." Ophelia said.
So he arrived to the Burrow early and now they along with the Weasley's made their way onto the platform just half an hour before the express left.
"Remember what I told you-" Astrophel began buy Ophelia cut him off.
"Right you a letter everyday, and cast the castration spell on any male who tries to court me, flirt with me, anything at all to me. Turning them into my personal eunuch." Ophelia said seriously.
The Weasley's who heard this looked slightly disturbed, as the males unconscious protected their crotch area.
Many males did this as well.
"Did you actually?" Anastasia asked, intrigued after all she made that spell.
"Mhm! When I told you- well more like your portrait about it, she told me how you created that spell, and used it on countless idiotic males, and threatened to use it on dad." Ophelia answered.
James paled at the thought.
"I take it Astrophel found my personal spell books?" Anastasia questioned curiously.
"Mhm." Ophelia hummed at her stepmother. "I've seen them as well. Amazing I tell you, my favorite is definitely castration spell." She smiled.
Making the hall shivered.
While Bellatrix, just wanted to see the spell books for herself. Especially the castration spell. Seems amazing.
Ophelia didn't look like she was joking.
"To you remember the incantation?"
"Yes I remember, castratio." She said.
Many females tool note and wrote it down, the male looked fearful at this.
"Did you actually though?" Lily asked.
"Yes, yes I did." Ophelia smiled.
"They deserved it." Hermione added.
Astrophel smiled.
Before he knelt down and kissed her forehead right as the express train's
whistle went off.
"Have a good year, Moonflower." He smiled at her again as he stood up, before ruffling her hair.
"If only my brother wasn't such a bitch." Rabastan said, getting a glare from his brother.
"You too, Astro." She smiled back.
The screen shifted.
Ophiuchus was seen with his court.
Theo playing with Akhyls, while Daphne rants to him and Blaise about how infuriating Elias is.
"What is with you blonds and the twins?" Blaise questioned Daphne and Draconian, loud enough just for them to hear.
"A pair of platinum blonde purebloods, who's name starts with the letter 'D' and are completely in love with a Nikolaev, denies it yet won't shut up about them." Blaise added.
"I am not!" Daphne and Draconian both hissed.
Yet they both subtlety gazed at the twins.
Daphne's attention was on Elias, whom had her signature mischievous loopsided grin.
While Draconian's was on Silas, an indifferent look on his face as he started at Ophiuchus, yet his golden eyes were filled with many emotions Draconian could decipher.
Ophiuchus just gazed out the window waiting for the express to leave the station. Merlin, he wished he could go back to vacation.
"I mean like same."
He wants to travel again.
He remembered when Calytrix was alive, they had it all planned out and Ophiuchus can see it all spread out before them, and they had the freedom to do what they want.
"That sounds nice." Regulus said.
"It wasn't nice. It was incredible." Ophiuchus hummed.
It was glorious. There is so much to learn, to see, they spend longer than they intend to circling the globe.
To New Orleans to the French Quarter witches and their voodoo spells, and death sending ceremonies under Baron Samedi.
Eyes looked on the screen curiously.
Especially Ophelia's own on this.
To North America to uncover the Native American rituals used to call on the weather, their shamans who can walk beyond and the spirits they once summoned.
Elias then laughs.
"Remember when you made a raincloud appear? A single rain cloud that floating just a foot above you with actual rain, and couldn't get rid of it for an hour." Ophiuchus glares at her.
"Elias, I will cut off your funding." He threatened.
"You wouldn't dare!" She gasped.
"Silas." Ophiuchus called.
"I'll cut her off when we return." He told him.
"Betrayed by my own brothers..." Elias pouts.
To Japan to learn about kotodama, the language of names and souls and spirit that can manipulate the world around them.
"Didn't you get a eagle spirit following you everywhere?" Elias asked Silas.
"Yes, Aurelia she randomly likes to pop in." Silas confirmed. "She became our spiritual guardian remember?"
"She does? Why doesn't she visit me?" Elias pouted even more now.
"Because she likes me better." Silas smiled.
While others looked at them curiously.
A spiritual guardian? That is quite rare.
An eagle being the twins's guardian is quite ironic considering the symbolism.
As the eagle represents many things such as intelligence, protection, devotion, loyalty, and many other things.
Considering what they've seen so far from the twins. An eagle is the perfect animal for them.
To India snake charmers who speak the language as well. Some have have even managed to teach bits of the language despite the fact that Silas got a bit of his magic that twists his mouth and tongue into the right shapes to form the correct hisses. Ophiuchus teaches them what he can, and they sound like a dying cat half the time.
Amelie herself laughed.
"Elias, remember when we first met and you tried to greet me in parseltounge only to accidentally say 'I've fucked the duck' to me?" She asked.
Making Silas snicker while Ophiuchus smirk, at Elias who blushed in embarrassment.
To Mongolia where Elias and Calytrix drags them to a Quidditch game. Ophiuchus and Silas spends half of it reading, but indulges they along with Narcissus, indulge Elias's and Calytrix's wishes.
"Then a bludger hit, Silas in the face." Ophiuchus reminisced.
"Then I got knocked out with a black eye, and made it onto the news, as the kid who got hit by a bludger during a professional match." Silas muttered bitterly especially more with Elias's laugh.
To Siberia, indulging Calytrix's whims as they wander around lost in a Siberian Forest attempting to locate the heart tree of the forest. None are quite sure how they find themselves thousands of miles away from their starting position somewhere near Moscow. Ophiuchus vows to never indulge Calytrix again, only to break that promise shortly after.
"We don't talk about Siberia." Ophiuchus, said and Silas and Elias agreed.
"What happened in Siberia?" Someone asked.
The trio stayed silent.
What happens in Siberia.
Stays in Siberia.
To Egypt and walk among the tombs and the pyramids and learn about the rites and the soul magic that was performed on the departed because soul magic fascinates Calytrix and Elias is chasing myths and local legends.
"Ah yes, your mythology phase." Silas recalled.
"What? It was fun! I mean Cleopatra was and always is a fucking icon." Elias defended.
To Greece to locate Temples to the Gods, curses still scrawled onto their walls.
"Then you proceeded to vandalize it." Elias grinned sheepishly under Silas's gaze.
To Rome to find out about their sacrificial ceremonies and resurrection rituals that will allow one to walk through hell and emerge unscathed, provided they do not turn their back.
'Eurydice and Orpheus...' The twins both thought looking at Ophiuchus and thinking of Calytrix.
Orpheus was the son of Apollo, the Greek god of music and poetry. Eurydice was a beautiful nymph. Their tragic love story would tell the tale of losing someone you love and having the opportunity to get them back if you can follow one simple rule.
A tale fitting for them.
Yet nothing can last forever.
He sighs as he gets up.
"-she think she is so good! With her undercut, stupid cheshire smile that appears on her even more stupider pretty face-"
Elias smirked as she turned to Daphne.
"Awe, you think I'm pretty?" She teased.
"S-Shut up." Daphne stuttered a bit.
Daphne pauses her ran on Elias for a moment seeing Ophiuchus get up.
"Where are you going?" She asked.
"Restroom." He answered.
Making his way to the restroom he bumps into someone.
It was Ophelia.
"I remember this." Ophelia glares at Ophiuchus, who as always remains unbothered.
"Excuse you." She said.
Ophiuchus looked at Ophelia, whom was glaring at him.
"Do I know you?" He asked.
"Really? You didn't recognize her?"
"To be fair nobody did."
Ophelia paused and blinked.
'He is joking right..?' She thought.
"I don't recall seeing you before. Are you perhaps a transfer? Beauxbatons? Durmstrang? Ilvermorny maybe?"
'He is not joking?!' Ophelia screamed in her head, at the fact he doesn't recognize her, after a whole year of them fighting.
"The audacity in this bitch for not recognizing me." Ophelia rolled her eyes.
"Ophelia Potter." She said.
Ophiuchus raised a brow.
"Bunny? Surprised you don't look a short malnourished child." Ophiuchus said before leaving.
"He gets his bluntness from you." Narcissa looked as her sister accusing, Bellatrix just smiles.
Ophelia's right eye twitch in annoyance.
"That git!" She yelled before looking for Ron as he boarded the train before her.
When she find the compartment he was in, Hermione was there as well.
Ophelia dramatically opened the door, before slumping in her seat, and onto Hermione's shoulder, an arm wrapping around Hermione for support physical Ophelia didn't need.
"I blame James for you inheriting his denseness and over dramatic tendencies." Lily said.
"Mom! Astro is more dramatic than me!" Ophelia said defensively.
"No, Narcissus is the most dramatic." Draconian commented.
The future all came to in agreement on that.
Narcissus is the most dramatic.
"You won't believe who I bumped into on the way here." Ophelia said.
While Hermione looked at her confused.
"Do I know you?" She asked.
"See, she is barely recognizable." Ophiuchus said.
"Why do people keep asking me that?" Ophelia muttered.
"Why do you think?" Hermione gave Ophelia a deadpanned look.
"Hi, I'm Ophelia." She smiled.
Hermione blinked.
"Excuse me what-?"
