34 the showdown of the century 2 (1/2)
Once again, all could see the overwhelming difference between the two. While one acts like a whining brat and belittle everyone without previous provocation, the other shows a great deal of character. It hadn't be lost to all that the boy didn't seem to bear any grudge against the Slytherins and even show great face from those of old House.
”How... I... I... You are a Gryffindor right, then why are you siding with those filthy Snakes!” Thinking has cornered his opponent a large smirk start to made its way on his face but was completely crushed with Alex next word.
”Are you stupid? Why should I hold grudge against them? I only here from not even a complete day. Even then, of all, the only one to show a modicum of civilized conversation with me was a Slytherin, while you and your band of monkey were abusing and ganging against a single child. Aren't you ashamed? If it was all I could understand, but sprouting lies and sending your bootlicking minions to belittles me in order to draw and brainwash mundane children against me, lying to them? I know you're too stupid to do that. Is that the wish of the so-called 'light side' Pitting brainwashed and ignorant child against the 'dark' and 'grey' side while looking on the side? It's no wonder that they are belittled and radical action is taken against them. You are purposefully sending them to their death, adding to the sentiment of fear when raids are conducted on their house, fanning the hatred from each side. Is that your purpose? Feeding this endless circle of hatred that birth dark lord. In what goal, to justify your existence, by using the death of mundane? Rallying more to your side and fanning the flames of wars that are tearing apart the base of our society, just so that you could stand and be a 'shield' for them? For me you are worst than those purists, at least they dare to show their conviction, their way may be wrong and I don't caution their act but they are true to their way and don't hide like a coward under other back!”
The boy was completely covered under the onslaught of the giant that towers over him. The Hall was dead silent and all eyes on the Heir Potter. The same boy, completely dominated for the first time of his life, made perhaps the worst mistake of his life. When he looked at Dumbledore with pleading eyes, the elderly man lost all his color.
For the younger, it was nothing but to the sixth and seventh year, it was all then need. It was as if he just confirmed all that Alex just say, tearing an irreparable hole in the myth that was the man. If they couldn't act, their parents would and with the ammunition, they where just offer, the future will be hell for him and he knows it.
Completly throw off guard and before he could even react, James seal is fate by his next words.
”Wait until my father hears of it! He will throw you in Azkaban!”
On the Slytherin side, a platinum boy swears to never again use this phrasing, fearing the consequence of them.
as if hearing his words the folks of post owls choose these moments to descend. At first, few students take off their load, thinking the drama finished but when a red-letter made it way in the central alley, toward Alex and bearing the Potter crest around his neck on a plate, everything freeze. Seeing the Howler, James smirk while Alex nonchalantly takes it off and tear it under the flabbergasted eyes of the crowd.
”You... You... You can't do that?!”
”Are you stupid, who in their right mind send a Howler to children, isn't Hogwarts supposed to see at the safety of their students? Surely a simple ward could have been erected to not allow them to pass.”
As he says that, he was suddenly attacked by the owl. Before the talon could wound his face, a white streak of light flash through the hall and blood splurts when Chione sink her own talon on the owl back. Falling on the ground the poor owl was then savagely taken apart by a pissed off Skadi. Everyone assists powerlessly at the sight of the gruesome death of the poor bird that attempted to attack Alex.
”I see that poor judgment run in the family, not only the father is a moron but even the bird is a lunatic.” Hearing that, James finally snapped and take out his wand, opening his mouth to throw a spell directed not at Alex but the little furball that was actually feasting on the owl carcass.
Before he could utter the first syllable, a heavy boot connected to his nose, a clear crunching sound resounding hin the once again silent hall. It was only when he made contact with the ground that shriek break the silence.
”Jammy!!” From the table, a completely distressed Lily Potter rush to he baby. ”Depulso!” Throwing a spell at the unaware cat. Before the spell could hit her, Alex appears in the way, taking the full blow of it but didn't bugle a single step under the shocked gaze of all. As she was going to pass him, he launches his hand, taking an iron grip on her wrist and squeezing harshly. The son of broking bones could be heard before her scream that shut when a heel shamed her face, making her lost consciousness. As the body of the professor falls limply on the ground, the old wizard finally seems to snap out of it, launching a cannon blast while looking furiously at Alex.
”M.Evans, your action is inexcusable and your assault of professor a crime! I will have none other choices but to expulse you of Hogwarts!”
If he wanted to see the child flatter under his gaze, he would be soon clearly disappointed.
”Fuck off your lemon sucker!”
”What?!”
”You have no right to expulse me.”
”And on what basis do you think I can't? I'm the Headmaster of Hogwarts, chief warlord of the Wisengamot! I could even see you in the DMLE custody for the assault of the Lady Potter!”
”You can do shit! I act upon the law your nitwit! Tell me is it not a crime and rulebreaking to take his wand against another student in the castle out of class? Is it not a crime to attack without reason against a wizard possession? Is it not a crime for a professor to attack a student? I could have charges against the little shit and his bitch of a mother for assaulting me!”
”What?!” This time it was a completely lost Headmaster who utters those words.
