This was all beyond Trowa’s comprehension. His ears were ringing and there was a great pain in his chest that he couldn’t describe. If asked, he couldn’t tell you how he’d ended up sixteen foot below ground in a hole that was coated in magic. Trowa had landed in the leaves but that didn’t make the fall any softer. He knew something was broken and at a hunch he was going to say it was his ribs. He hadn’t done anything wrong. He never acted up in class and he certainly wasn’t prey to the Slytherins. At least, he hadn’t thought it would be.
He was a Half-Blood. That wasn’t anything special but it wasn’t anything that would get him in trouble with the Purebloods. It was the middle ground. There, he had a choice between either side. Trowa had no preference. He made clothes for people both sides of the blood-purity fence. He didn’t care about that in the slightest. Evidently though, someone did. He wasn’t a bad person at all so his blood was the only explanation for the attack. That didn’t answer much, though.
Groaning quietly, Trowa lifted his head. He brought his hand to his face and tore away one of the leaves that stuck to him. He rubbed away some of the mud that clung to his skin and looked up to see something that was almost like a shield of magic surrounding the lid of the hole. It would keep him in, he supposed. Sighing, Trowa dropped his head back down. He’d wait this out. He didn’t have to deal with it; or, well, he shouldn’t have had to.
