It was another Saturday. Another Saturday where the young Ironwoods opted to stay outdoors for a bit rather than being cooped up in their Common Room. The weather in January is still a bit chilly, but there's just enough wind breezing here and there, and it is not too cold either. The Winter game will arrive soon,n and the green eyes made some time to practice by themselves before trekking a bit to the Great Lake.
As soon as Cash arrived at the Great Lake, the green eyes marched toward their favorite spot. Under the Oak Tree of the lake. The tree itself contained a lot of memories for the young socialite. Whether it is bad or good. Cash slid down to the damp grass of the Lake's ground and parked their enchanted satchel alongside their Comet 180 beside them. Then the green eyes opened their satchel to take out some Herbology and Potions parchments, also the newly sent Medical Journal of a Renowned Healer that their abuela grandmother had sent a few days prior.
The initial idea was that Cash wanted to review a bit of their Herbology and Potions notes for the next class. But the Medical Journal is far more interesting than reviewing the subjects that had been mentioned. The wind breezed again, and Cash tightened their denim jacket that they wore to keep them warm in this weather.
To keep their Herbology and Potions notes of a parchments stay intact and laying beside them, Cash had kicked the brush of their Comet 180 to make the broom lie on the ground. The broom shaft fell down on top of the stack of parchments and acted as a paperweight for the time being. The Sixth year didn't expect anyone to show up at the Great Lake with this kind of condition.
The Scottish Highland weather could be cold from time to time if they were not accustomed to the weather. Many students who the former Beater of Slytherin knew opted to stay warm. Either in the comfort of their respective Common Rooms, Dorms, in the Library, or even in the warmth of the Hogwarts castle itself. But for Cash, they didn't mind the chilly weather and wind. They didn't mind it at all.

The Beginning of Something
Reducio
It was pleasantly cool outside when I opened the door to the Great Hall and set foot on the grass. The frost crunched under my feet, and my breath formed a light mist in the air. I shivered slightly in the cold wind, but I needed this fresh air, as I was a nature lover at heart. Despite the cold and the whipping wind, the scenery outside was beautiful. The trees of the Forbidden Forest created a lovely, mysterious backdrop. I let my gaze wander over the landscape and realized how lucky I was to be at this school. Unfortunately, I hadn't made any friends yet, but I was very happy to be in Ravenclaw. I longed for a friend because without someone, my time here would be lonely, despite this wonderful school. I was a shy girl and didn't dare to talk to other people, so I didn't know how to make friends. I made my way to the large, old, gnarled tree and saw an older girl sitting in its shade. The first thing that caught my eye were her wonderfully green eyes. I slowly approached her, wondering if I could perhaps sit down next to her. She had a broom in front of her. I'd always wanted to learn to fly. Unfortunately, I hadn't even had my first flying lesson yet. The girl had a somewhat wild look on her face, but she seemed beautiful. I slowly moved a little closer, hoping she would accept it if I sat down. "Nyra, it's okay, just try it and sit next to her," I thought to myself, "because that sometimes helps me to give myself courage." And so I lowered myself into the cold but pleasant grass beside her with a soft crunching sound hoping not to disturb her.
I had to change my nameโฆ

All Cash could hear was the steady rhythm of their own breathing, and sometimes they could see the light steam of smoke emitting from their breathing because of the chilly weather.
And so, when another girl was sitting next to the Sixth year, Cash didn't realize it just yet. The girl had sat quietly beside the Second-String Slytherin Keeper without uttering a word.
The green eyes were in the middle of reading a passage about how Healers in the Wizarding world found a cure for a rare disease like the Vanishing Sickness. "Oh wow!"The Slytherin said to themselves.
They were amazed by how amazing it was to read about the team of Healers in the book about their research and work ethics. Because Cash had bent their head for a bit while now, they could feel the back of their neck starting to hurt and strain.
Cash massaged the back of their neck and slid the glasses back up that ridden down on the bridge of their nose. It was then that Cash looked up. "Bloody hell!"Cash exclaimed in surprise after acknowledging that they are not alone anymore in the Great Lake.
Cash didn't mind the intrusion. Both their mother and the psychology counsellor had advised and encourage for Cash to be more open and find a new circle of friends. Their mother even advises Cash, 'try to make friends that will last long, okay, dear?'.
It was the exact word that Cash's mother had said to them a few days prior. Cash went back to Hogwarts again for the 2025 - 2026 academic year. The green-eyed person then took a deep breath and pulled the glasses off.
The cool air of the Scottish Highlands in the winter fills their lungs, and Cash can feel how refreshing it is. They put a bookmark between the pages before closing the book with a quiet and soft thud.
If this girl who sat next to Cash had met them a few years ago, Cash would shooed her rudely without thinking twice. But Cash was tired of being the bad guy. Being the antagonist in either their own life or others'.
The older girl shot the girl a small smile. The girl looks still young. Cash assumed she was either in her 1st or 2nd year at this magical castle. "Well, thank you for the scare,"They said as their form of saying 'hello'.
Cash was never good at 'hi, how are you? What is your name' pleasantries. The young Ironwoods would rather choose to talk straight without that mundane format. The green eyes examined the younger girl, and then they smirked playfully at her.
"You sure do a brave one to venture the cold at this time of the day and month,"They said to the other girl with a gleam of playfulness in their eyes. "Who the hell are you?"They inquired of the younger girl.
It could be heard and seems a bit rude, but it is how Cash usually talks to someone younger or of the same age as them.
