All Creatures Are Created Equal

Silinia smiled, "Touche. Mainly because I have other things to do. It takes a lot out of me to teach."

"If you say so. Well, I should be heading off to the lake. I'll see you tomorrow." Johnny said, kissing her cheek before elevating the room and going to the lake.

Silinia sat in the room by herself for a few minutes before heading off to her room and falling into a peaceful sleep.

By the next morning, John was in pain. He had a gash in his tail from fighting with the mermaids. He sat on the edge of the lake, inspecting his wounds in the daylight. "Shit..." he hissed, the gash stinging.

Silinia made her way out to the lake with a plate of food so that she could eat. When she saw Johnny she frowned, "It didn't work out?"

John groaned and shook his head. "I'm bleeding." He hissed, his fin trembling.

Silinia cursed to herself and pulled some things from her bag to sew up his tail, "How?"

"They bit me... my tail is tough, but not against my own kind." John sighed.

"I'm sorry it looks like it hurts," Silinia frowned.

John shrugged. "It's fine..." He sighed. "You think I just just pretend to be a student?"

"Yes," Silinia nodded. "It's the safest thing for you at the moment."

John nodded. "So, what house am I going to be put in> And wait, what happens when they see I can't do magic." he pouted.

"Um...let me think about that..." Silinia frowned.

"I've kind of narrowed myself between Slytherin and Ravenclaw. But I'm afraid the Slytherins would figure out I'm, if not a wizard, at least not a pure blood." He said.

"Then we'll put you in Ravenclaw," nodded Silinia.

John nodded. "Sounds good. Now help me dry off so I can walk." He chuckled.

Silinia simled, wiping Johnny off with a towel. "Thanks again for yesterday."
