This spell could be the difference between survival and failure he said, his voice low but urgent Imperio—it bends your enemy’s will to yours.
wait seb I have a better idea Theborga whispers to seb
Sebastian lowered his wand slightly and turned to Theborga, curiosity piqued.
A better idea? he whispered back, arching an eyebrow What are you thinking?
That sounds amazing! How did you learn it?
Sebastian smirked, his eyes gleaming with a hint of arrogance.
I've spent years studying the darkest and most powerful spells. I'm not afraid to push the boundaries of magic. I've learned Imperio from an old, tattered grimoire I found in the depths of Hogwarts library.
That's very powerful magic, Sebby. Are you sure you can handle it?
Sebastian glanced at you, his expression a mix of annoyance and determination.
Of course I can handle it, he said defensively. This isn't my first time using Imperio.
she grabs Sebastian by the wrist, stopping him mid-incantation Sebastian, wait! You can't just use that spell on anyone!
Sebastian's eyes widened in surprise as he felt her grip on his wrist, his wand arm frozen in mid-air.
"Wait?" he repeated, a hint of irritation creeping into his voice "What do you mean wait? We need to use every weapon at our disposal."
Just be careful, Sebby. We don't know how strong this curse really is.
Sebastian nodded, his eyes flickering to yours for a moment before returning to the task at hand. I know, I know. But we don't have much choice. We need to get past these Slytherin git's and they're blocking our path.
Bends their will? Are you sure about this?
Sebastian nodded, his eyes fixed on the flickering torchlight. "Positive," he said, with a confidence that was slightly forced.
"Trust me," he added, trying to sound reassuring. "I've done my research."
I watch him cast the spell
Sebastian's wand moved through the air, tracing a complex pattern as he muttered the incantation. A shiver of power crackled in the air, and for a moment it seemed like time itself held its breath.
Then, with a final flourish of his wand tip, he completed the spell. For an instant nothing happened—then suddenly one of Anne's potion vials began to rattle, the liquid inside swirling.
But why do you want to use it on me?
Sebastian chuckled darkly. He moved closer to you, his eyes never leaving yours.
Oh, darling... It's not for me. It's for Anne. You see, she needs something that only someone under an Imperio spell can provide.
Okay okay, I’ll try again. She says, trying the spell again.
Sebastian watches intently as you cast the spell once more.
Good—you’re getting closer. Remember, it’s not just about saying the words; it’s about focusing your will and intention into them.
He steps closer to you, his eyes fixed on yours
Try again.
I know… why do you think I’ve been teaching you all these years? she says calmly
Sebastian chuckled, his gaze flickering to you for a moment before returning to the target dummy.
“Just making sure,” he replied with a cocky smirk. “Can never be too prepared.”
He took a deep breath and focused all his attention on the dummy, his wand held steady in his hand.
I know that spell she says annoyed she has to teach him everything what do you want me to do?
Sebastian glanced up as she spoke, a flicker of irritation crossing his features. But he pushed it aside and responded coolly.
I want to see you cast it. Show me how it's done properly.
raises eyebrow I think we should save that one for later, Sebastian.
He lets out a frustrated sigh, his wand lowering slightly.
And why's that? We need every advantage we can get if we're going to help Anne.
And what exactly do you plan to do with that?
He glanced over at you, a hint of annoyance in his eyes at your question. But he answered anyway.
It's a powerful tool, and we may need it. The Wizarding world is in chaos right now - the Order needs every advantage it can get.
