Welcome to Gaia! ::

Marcos simply grinned. The boy was scarred and it was obvious. His grin didn't even fade as Dante spoke. He never intended to include this boy in his killing. His revenge was with the Da Vinci twins and their father only. No need to include another family in the matter. As he stood there he casually pulled his wand out. The grin on his face grew wider as he saw them flinch at the move.

"I wouldn't worry dear boys, I am going no further than this. Now" he began as he slowly stepped forward,"you have no place to be here boy, my revenge lies with these two" he said in a mock kind tone. In the same moment as he spoke he flicked his wand which sent Dante flying and off into bushes twenty or so feet away. His attention never left the two in front of him.

"I was hoping to have your father here to see this but I suppose his absence will make this revenge even sweeter. I can just imagine his face when he learns his son will never return OH" he laughed"and I can just see it, he learns of his other son being alive and yet even then he could not save him" his chuckle came out deep and cold. No ounce of humanity lay within those words. "I will not deny that I have grown somewhat attached to you Xerxes but non the less I will go through with it, I will simply kill you quickly" he smiled then lifted his wand to attack.

Marcos laughed at the anger that came from Xenos after the boy had been thrown. Seems he had hit a soft spot on the boy. As he cast his first spell, Marcos responded quickly and smoothly with "Protego!" The expelliarmus charm ricocheted off of him and shot back at Xenos.

For a split second his eyes flickered over to Xerxes who seemed stunned by the whole ordeal. While Xenos was distracted he took the opening to attack him"Sectumsempra!!" he yelled and slashed his wand in a quick figure eight motion then finished with a diagonal slash from the top right down. Immediately afterwards he yelled "Flipendo"to knock Xenos back. After watching to make absolutely sure he stayed down he turned his attention to Xerxes. "I am sorry about this but revenge is revenge and it wont be complete without your death" he said in a dark tone, his wand raised toward him, ready to attack again.

Dante cursed profusely after landing in the bushes. The landing had knocked the wind from him and caused him to lay there for a moment to gather the lost air. He heard fighting start and tried to rise but he still could barely breath. Yet that didnt matter as soon as he heard Xerxes yell for Xenos. He scrambled to his feat and looked down. Xerxes was holding Xenos and he was covered in....blood.

His body began to shake as he looked at him. Slowly his eyes drifted up to look at the man responsible. It seems he did have some compassion for the boy Xerxes to the point at least to let him mourn a little. He grit his teeth as tears welled up in his eyes. Ignoring the bushes scraping him up a little as he left the bushes. As he passed the twins he didn't even look down and moved faster toward Marcos. Without any delay he pulled his wand out and practically screamed "REDUCTO!!". The curse hit Marcos directly in the stomach. It was very successful and killed him instantly. (I was asked not to make this too gory so use your imagination as to what happened ;3)

Dante stood still staring at the remains of the dead man. Only moments passed before the world around him started to get blurry, he swayed a bit then fell to the ground.

Slip out the back before they know you were there

and at the worst you'll see nobody cares,

you don't want to be around when it all goes down...

These carriages they were sitting in were quite unique. A non-informed student would think that they were moving on their own, charmed by some spell. But Chase knew that the carriages were actually pulled by thestrals, magical creatures associated with death. He read descriptions of them, but he really wanted to see them with his own eyes.

On second thought, he didn't want to see them, because that required witnessing death. Chase didn't want that. "It depends on the classes you're referring to though," he said to Ari. "Some classes will build on top of previous knowledge, like Transfiguration, while classes like History of Magic just throws new knowledge at you. I feel like history will get easier as time passes while Transfiguration will get harder." He was speaking from experience, of course, after having taken a numerous number of courses back in London. "Ignore me; I'm just rambling," he said, chuckling and realizing that he may bore his friends to death like last time.

Kat climbed into the carriage and sat next to Ariana, happy to be with her again, and glanced at the front of the carriage. She knew that the carriage was being pulled by a skeletal horse-like creature known as a thestral, but she couldn't see them. Idly, she wondered if that was a good thing or a bad thing. "The classes get more in depth, but we can handle it."
