Chapter 100 - Best Friends
[POV Nemuri(Vicky)]
I was standing looking over the stunned body of Charlie Weasley while gritting my teeth and rage was completely filled in my eyes. How better it would have been if I could have only brought myself to torture or kill someone... but I can't. No matter, how enraged I was I can't bring myself to kill him.
Even now, when I can only see rage in my eyes I can't bring myself to kill him. Even if I can't kill him... I will still make him pay, no matter what.
But... how was he even able to drug Tonks? There was no way that I would have never noticed Charlie getting near Tonks when in the Great Hall, I especially kept my eyes on him and he never tried to get near Tonks for more than one week...
So, I am completely sure that this bastard didn't drug her in the Great Hall. Yes, there is a possibility that Charlie directly drugged the food in the kitchen but there is no way in hell that he could have known Tonks plate... there could have been an obvious chance that someone else could have been drugged.
Now, the last probability is that someone could have helped Charlie to drug Tonks. This is probably what have happened... but I need to confirm this... there is no way that I won't reach the bottom of this.
Right at this moment a apparation pop was heard... I turned around and found Trixy holding out a vial towards me. Ah... she brought the neutralizing potion. I immediately grabbed the potion from Trixy's hand and walked towards the bounded Tonks.
"What's in the vial?!! What are trying to feed me?!!" Tonks shouted at me but I completely disregarded anything and force fed her the potion. I hated myself for having to do this...
Tonks started to cough and I unbounded her from the chair. She gave me a look filled with rage and I could already see tears in her eyes but before she could say anything... her stomach growled. Tonks immediately got up and ran and obviously I followed her, I casted the strongest notice-me-not charm I could have on the room.
"Trixy, make sure the the guy inside stays there" I said to the house elf who nodded her head enthusiastically. Tonks directly ran into the nearest girl's toilet as expected, I stood near the sinks, I could clearly hear vomiting noises coming from inside the stall.
Damn... Fuck!! I was a hero for more than 10 years!! 10 fucking years... how the hell did I let this happen to my best friend? I should have done something before it could have come to this point... I should have been more active. When Tonks started to avoid me three days ago, I should have gotten to the bottom of the matter then and there!
I should have been a better friend... I just thought that she might be busy with her studies after all exams are going on but she is my best friend! How could I have thought that Tonks would avoid me to study. I single tear left my eye, and I wiped it off... I would ask Tonks for her forgiveness... even if she doesn't forgive me I will keep trying!
Tonks finally left the stall and came to sink and started to wash her face. I wanted to hug her... to comfort my best friend but I stopped myself.
"Are you alright?" I asked her in a small voice. Tonks stopped washing her face and looked towards me. I could see the pain in her eyes and it hurt me... I have already been hiding a lot from her and now, because of my carelessness she ended up in this situation.
"Tonks... I am sorry, I wasn't a good friend... if I had been, then I should have saved you so..." I began to say to her but before I could finish Tonks embraced me in a tight hug and started to cry.
"I am so glad that I have a friend like you... you saved me. What the hell are you even saying? You are the best friend I could have ever asked for... now just stup up and let me hug you" Tonks said in a whispering voice and kept hugging me. I don't know what to do... as it was quite awkward now that before I could even say something... she had said that I was her best friend. I took out my wand and casted another strong notice-me-not charm on both of us and hugged Tonks.
But a glimmer of rage was still burning in my eyes. I kept patting Tonks's back to comfort her. Soon, Tonks calmed down and stopped crying. We finally separated from the hug, Tonks eyes were red and her her cheeks were puffed from crying.
"Are you alright now?" I asked Tonks who just nodded her head.
"Then let's go back... I still to do some stuff with the rapist I caught" I said to Tonks who was slightly surprised hearing my cold tone but she immediately nodded her head.
"Sure, I also wanted some payback" Tonks said. Soon both of us left the girl's toilet and arrived in front of the class where I have left the bastard. As soon as I arrived in front of the class, Trixy appreared in front of me.
"Whose house elf is this?" Tonks asked me quite surprised. I looked slightly guilty but I still answered.
"This is Trixy, one of my house elfs. Yeah, I know I should have told you before and honestly I have been hiding a lot of stuff from you but I will tell you everything this summer... I expect that your parents have told you everything about Albus Dumbledore?" I spoke to Tonks, without giving her any chance to speak anything. She just dumbly nodded her head. Tonks wanted to be an auror and even though Reo have Amelia Bones as an ally but getting another auror as his ally would be good.
Of course I wouldn't tell her everything, like we came from another world or even Reo's real age. I plan to just show her my castle... and how couldn't I do that for my best friend. And yeah, I still have to check out what she thinks of Dumbles now that she knows about his true nature... only after that I would ask Reo to visit her as Magneto so she could become his ally.
"Trixy, can you bring me a vial of Veritaserum from the treasury?" I asked the small house elf.
"Yes, Trixy could be doing that" the little creature said and apparated out.
"Treasury??" Tonks asked me completely dumbfounded. "And how the hell you have Veritaserum?" She asked another thing still dumbfounded. I just chuckled hearing her say something like that...
"Yeah, I have a treasury... the Ravenclaw treasury... and there is a huge sto..." I suddenly stopped and looked at Tonks carefully. I can't leak everything out... I don't know how strong her shields are.
"How strong are your mental shields?" I asked Tonks who puffed out her chest and gave me a smug smile.
"Strong enough... I want to become an auror after all, so I confident that no one can read my mind when they use their wand and chant the spell out loud" Tonks said proudly, I just nodded my head to her proclamation. I didn't want to bust her bubble but I am pretty sure that Reo would be able to not only read her surface thoughts... but he can even break through whatever shields she have made without a wand. Hah... not that he needs to use a wand because some wand was absorbed by his body. That's good... I personally think that he should have only one wand... the wand in his pants... hehe.
I was brought out of my perverted thoughts when Trixy popped back and brought a small vial of Veritaserum. I took the vial from her and asked her to keep watch outside the classroom. The notice-me-not charm is still in its place so for now I have no worries.
"So, how are we going to do this? I don't think that he is going to drink Veritaserum on his own... and honestly I don't even want to go near that son of a bitch!!" Tonks said and cursed while gritting her teeth.
"Don't worry... there is no way that I would also touch that bastard" I said and pulled out another the wand Reo brought from Knocktrum Alley for me from my cleavage.
"I just thought that those were useless lump of fats but it seems that you are putting them to a good use" Tonks said while glaring at my boobs... hehe... she has been always jealous of my boobs, after all Tonks's puppies are much more smaller than mine.
"Are you jealous?? Do you know these" I said and grabbed my both boobs "lumps of fat have so much calcium that it makes Edgar's boneless muscle to get rock hand" I said and kept squeezing my own boobs to emphasize the point. Tonks heard me and blushed like a Christmas tree... ah... she still have a lots to learn I see...
