Merlin! Dessy was so impulsive and there was no way to hold her back once she'd become fixed on doing something. Usually, Shylock was good at guessing what his sister's actions, since having been born mere months apart, he was well acquainted with her thought patterns.
Not today, however. Instead of her usual collected manner and manipulative style, Destrey had broken haphazardly into full view with a barrage of childish taunts. However, before he could even begin to doubt her sanity, Nick's wand flicked in Dessy's direction and let off a red flare.
"You bastard!"
Shylock broke into the clearing and threw himself in front of his sister. His shield charm bounced the stunner onto a nearby tree, leaving a large scorch mark across the trunk.
However, in the meantime, the other boy had transformed into a large wolf. Shylock glanced between the girl and the wolf. Destrey liked playing with weak things, but sometimes, she could get a bit too carried away.
Shylock fished his potions knife from his pocket.
"I'll have the wolf?" he suggested.
