Elder Blood Witcher 407 Is That Darude Sandstorm?

Fleur "I already have a date." she says simply, causing others to start gossiping as to who that might be.

Ron "WhWho is it?" he asks quickly as if he's just been insulted.

Ron follows Fleurs eyes as she blushes and glances at Reima, he feels indignant rage at the fact this single guy had ruined his chances with the most beautiful girl in school. Not only that but he'd been replaced as Harry's friend... Wait didn't he just beat Krum to take Ciri Rivia to the ball? "But he's taking someone else." he exclaims causing her to scowl at him.

Fleur nods, "Oui, but a man like him can handle two women." she says with a mocking look.

Ron can only grit his teeth at this and leave the hall, under the attention of the rest of the school. Perhaps he should open the package his mum had sent him a few days ago, in the letter it said it would help with his relationship to Hermione but maybe it could be used on someone else... Depending on what it is ofcourse.

Reima watches as Ron leaves and suspects that this isn't the end of it, the boy's an idiot but a determined one nonetheless. He wouldn't bother keeping an eye on him but making sure he doesn't try anything would be quite easy, considering how useless and clumsy he is.

He notices Fleur still glancing in his direction and waves his hand at her, causing a small blush to appear on her face as she quickly turns around.

Ciri "Don't tease her or you might be jumped in the hallway." she says, having spoken to the girl more so than Reima she couldn't really tell how far her affection for him went. Though it wouldn't surprise her if it turned into an obsession, she doubted Reima would dislike if that happened however.

Reima notices Snuffles isn't next to either he or Ciri and looks around, afraid of what might have happened to her. However is worries are quickly alleviated when he sees Luna cradling her while talking happily with Neville, he leaves them to it and he knows he won't be around forever to keep Luna away from bullies, perhaps he could rely on Neville for that.

After breakfast Reima and Ciri head to a cla.s.s that'd been recently opened for those attending the Yule Ball, dancing lessons. Students filed into the room and lined up on one side while Professor Mcgonagall watches them. It seems that everyone from Gryffindor is here, including Luna who was previously invited by the Professor.

Mcgonagall "Greetings everyone, I am sure you are all excited for the upcoming event... However, I doubt that many of you are even able to dance a simple Waltz. This is a problem for me and for Gryffindor as a whole as I will not permit my house to look like a babbling, b.u.mbling band of baboons!" she says, drawing a laugh for the Weasley twins.

Mcgonagall sends a glance at Filch who's in the corner hovering over a large ornamental music player, of course his cat is also present., he clicks the player and music springs to life. "Everyone one of you is capable of beauty or bravery and I'll be trying to draw that out in these lessons." She looks around before finally stopping on Ron Weasley who smirking while talking with Seamus Finnigan.

Mcgonagall "Mr Weasley? Would you perhaps step up with me please?" she says with a look that denies his rejection. The other students chuckle at this but stop quickly due to a glance from the Professor.

Ron groans and slowly gets up, wondering if he'd actually find someone to dance with anyway...

Mcgonagall proceeds to show Ron how to Waltz, after a couple minutes she invites everyone else to join her but the only people brave enough to step forward are Neville and Reima, who is quickly followed by Harry. On the other side of the room the girls who's dates have stood up also get up to join them, they all meet in the middle of the room and start practising either what'd just been showed by Mcgonagall or what they remember from previous dance lessons they may have forgotten, as was the case for Ciri.

Reima holds her waist as he grips her snugly as they move to the music, Ciri looks uncomfortable at first but begins to loosen up and go with the flow. Snuffles who's on a seat nearby begins putting her feet back and forward to mimics the movements of the dance but without a partner and indeed, as a rabbit, it just looks adorable.

The cla.s.s continues with Mcgonagall occasionally showing them more complex movements but everything goes smoothly, it was an enjoyable experience for everyone involved, excluding Ron Weasley ofcourse.

After the lesson Mcgonagall tells everyone the time of next weeks lesson and leaves the room, followed by Reima and Ciri who have Animagus practise with her.

They shadow Mcgonagall as she enters the office, she glances at them momentarily as they sit on the floor and enter meditation. She herself doesn't actually have to do much except watch for badly done transformations or ones done too quickly or slowly, both can result in terrifying injuries.

She idly scratches the back of Ciri's rabbit familiar while marking some students papers... That is, until she sees something... Weird?
