POV SEBASTIAN SALLOW

The trip back was uneventful, Henri Dubois had won the tournament but the three of us; Nox, Ominis and I were just relieved for it all to be done with. The Portkeys stationed at the final trial arena took us straight back to Hogsmeade, then we took a local Floo Channel back to the gates of Hogwarts.

"I told Poppy I'd grab her after we got back, I'll meet you both back in the Common Room." Nox cheerfully announced as he started walking away from us.

"We'll gather up Ada." I called out and sighed, Ominis rubbed his hands along his face.

"I think I'll sleep for a good long while after today." Ominis groaned, I gave him a look over his exhaustion palpable on his face. Having used such Powerful spells drained him. He explained his senses had been shot and his body felt sore from the empowering spell.

My hands grabbed his shoulders, shaking him a bit, "I'm sure the House Elves wouldn't mind us stealing some Wine and Whiskey for the evening." I grinned at him, walking us into the castle to go straight for the Faculty tower.

"Okay so we steal away Ada and take her straight to the Slytherin Common Room for the night" I stated.

"I hope she's fine..." I saw Ominis brows furrowed, his teeth chewing at his lower lip. "Sebastian tomorrow... I... I need to talk with you. About..." He was having a hard time getting it out.

"Save it for tomorrow." I squeezed his shoulder, "Preferably, after you're well rested." His shoulders slumped,

"If I'm to be quick, I think I'll be fast asleep for the next few days." Ominis inhaled trying to let out some of his usual sarcasm. "Though knowing you, you'll wake me up early in the morning without prejudice."

"Oh please I'm not so cruel." I laughed, "I'd let sleep at least until nine."

"I would prefer the late afternoon..." he let me lead him up the wooden steps hand firmly placed on his upper back to keep him going up. It was rather quiet, not a student in sight. Then Henri passed us down the steps with Daemon and Rosalie.

"Ah Frenchman, congratulations!" Henri gave me an annoyed look at my words.

"Hello, you Scottish Brute." He drew out, then glanced at Ominis.

"Are you alright Ominis?"

"Yes, just exhausted, we're going up to get Ada before we return to our dorms." Ominis hand rested on the wooden hand railing. Head tilting in a way to focus on what Henri was saying, Henri looked confused.

"You're little bird is not there." He stated, Ominis straightened and I looked at him equally as confused.

"What do you mean she's not there?" I asked.

"She was not there when Daemon and I went to get Rosalie. I had figured one of you had snatched her up before we arrived but I suppose not."

"We'll ask Nurse Blainey more. You three have a good evening." Ominis stated, looking just a little on edge, as he grabbed my sleeve and started up the stairs again. I helped to rush us until we arrived at the Hospital Wing. Walking quickly in with Ominis as I saw Anastasia laying in a cot while her slight burns were patched up. Otto looked rather groggy as he sat in a chair by her bedside. Nurse Blainey was at her work station, putting together a salve, she looked up to us.
