Chapter 214: Out numbered
"Is that right? And who might I ask would spread such clearly exaggerated rumors?" Nick asked playing innocent. "The papers were quite clear that that whole affair was Minister Fudges doing and I wasn't even mentioned in the paper." he said with a grin. "It was Ron , he and Harry wrote to us about it afterwards along with talking about some actions of yours that left us rather hurt." Daphne said calmly. Nick sighed "While I regret a lot of the circumstances surrounding that event there was no other way to do it."-
"The only person in our group who should have had to bear the weight of those actions was myself alone and if it was needed I would do so again." he said with a determined look that none of the girls could bring themselves to argue in the face of. "But enough of that nonsense do tell all about what you've all done this summer since my summer was pretty boring." he said changing the subject easily. "Tracy and I most just finished our homework and relaxed all summer so not really a whole lot to tell. Also weren't you learning how to make wands from Garrick Olivander of all people? How was your summer boring , is he that bad of a teacher?" Daphne asked curiously.-
Nick laughed "Not at all , he is a fantastic teacher. I even got my veritology license." Nick said showing them his recently updated license that now had three golden stars on it each with a large O in them. Daphne and Tracy both looked dumbfounded but Hermione only looked impressed but not like she understood the meaning of the stars or letters in them. "I swear that it's like you aren't even human sometimes , like how in Merlin's name are you already as good as a person with three or fours years experience in only so many months!?" Tracy asked in exasperation and Daphne was nodding in agreement.- The initial posting of this chapter occurred via N0v3l.B11n.
If this situation were to occur say three or four years in the future and that may be very different since anyone with eyes could tell each of these girls would grow into true beauties. "Luna Lovegood." Luna introduced herself in her normal dreamy tone that clearly caught the others off guard much to Nick's amusement. The others introduced themselves and Nick's friends began to familiarize themselves with Luna until the train began to leave the station at which point they realized that Harry and Ron never showed up. "Perhaps they are in another car avoiding me." nick suggested which sounded reasonable despite him meaning something totally different.
