2 Minutes Talk

Crynn POV

{Mission : Steal the Philosopher's Stone in Hogwarts (Accomplished)}

{Returning in 2 Minutes}

Yes! I'm done with this mission! Only thing left to do is wait for 2 minutes and I'll be gone. I grinned uncontrollably, I must say, successfully stealing the Philosopher's Stone is satisfying and a high sense of achievement welled up inside me. I looked down the room at the two students. Hermione seems to haven't discovered that I'm holding the stone rather weirdly and Harry hasn't got a clue.

Just before I'm about to go relax in a corner, a brave, hard voice came out from the corridors. "Quirrel! You're not getting the stone!" With big strides Dumbledore came into the room, a solemn expression decorates his face, his eyes shining with determination, so this Dumbledore when he's not the kind old man he is huh.

"Harry! Hermione! What are you doing here!" He genuinely looked surprise, did he seriously not think that Harry is going to go venturing into the obstacle course? It might just be true? This Dumbledore seems different from the usual interpretation back in the living, people were all on about Dumbledore being a manipulating, evil, old b*stard.

Hiding the shock once again, Dumbledore looked through the floor up. Noticing the dead corpse of one Professor Quirrel leaning on the Mirror of Erised, I've never got to really look into the mirror, I might find my deepest desire a bit perplexing, I've never really thought of having a deep desire on something.

"Crynn Avter!" Now he's more than shocked, he's outraged. He probably came here expecting a traitor but instead got an intruder. "Crynn Avter! That's Crynn Avter?! Now I knew where I saw him, he's a wanted criminal on the Daily Prophet!" Hermione blabbered out and pointed at me, expression of betrayal could be seen on her face. I honestly felt guilty but what's ultimately better, completing a mission so that one day I can go to heaven or fall to hell instead.

"Yes he's Crynn Avter, exploded Gringotts' front door, tried stealing the Philosopher's Stone once but failed," Dumbledore looked at me with his piercing silver glare, studying me from up to bottom. His wand out, the Elder Wand, I cannot expect more from Dumbledore, being treated directly to one of the hallows is a respect like none other. I'm pretty sure Dumbledore usually used a different wand and only using the Elder Wand for... Specific purposes.

"Elder Wand already, I can't help but blush Dumbledore," One minute left, I'm sure I can prolong our talk until the end of the timer, I'm best at creating small talk.

"What did you say?!" Dumbledore's eyes broke wide pen and stared at me appalled, I can't help but smile a little, it's rare in the movies to see Dumbledore genuinely looking shocked, and I got the chance to seeing some pretty shocking faces of him today. "How's Grindelwald, I heard Nurmengard is one of the best tourist attractions in the Swiss Alps."

Teasing someone about their ex turned enemy is not a very good idea, but since I've still got 40 seconds, trying out a taunt may very well benefit me even just a little. "And what did you know about him," Dumbledore brought his wand forward, a little bit of sorrow appeared on his eyes.

"You do know that I don't understand, why does everyone say that Voldemort is the strongest dark lord, I don't think even Voldemort has the ability to nearly wipe out Paris from the map," I decided to ease the situation a bit, that last taunt might have almost triggered Dumbledore, love might be the strongest form of power but it's also the strongest form of intimidation and weakness.

"Gellert is not a true dark lord, he's a politician and practises both light and dark arts and he can only truly be classified as a Grey Mage," hmm, never heard the term 'Grey Mage' before, but from the name alone, it might be a wizard that mixes both white and black together, and it's not wrong that mixing opposite colours often results in... wonderful products.

Almost forgot about Harry and Hermione, I looked past Dumbledore to see them bothhugging each other and staring at the whole drama unfolding before their eyes. A desperate clash of green and brown eyes looking at me, I'm truly sorry for having to steal the stone but I'm afraid there's not another choice.

"Drop the Stone Mr. Avter, you cannot escape," Dumbledore's eyes flashed to the Stone I'm holding on my left hand, "I believe you're mistaken Dumbledore, I can leave any time," I smiled a big smile, 10 seconds remaining, I should be out of danger now.

Another few fast footsteps were heard up the corridor, Professors Snape and Mcgonagall, "What's going on Dumbledore, we heard some noises down the the chambers, my chesspiece is destroyed and Mr. Weasley laid back there unconscious and unattended," Mcgonagall immediately voiced out in concern at Dumbledore, not noticing me in the background.

"As expected, Golden Boy and Know-it-all Granger is here," Snape sneered darkly, robes still fluttering about even when there's no wind. Harry and Hermione looked down on the floor blushing and embarrassed.

The two professors looked at Dumbledore and brought their attention the Headmaster's line of sight and they immediately show some shock which turned into rage rather hastily. "Crynn Avter!" They both shouted dramatically like a pair of drama queens and aimed their wands at me. "I'll have my way with you!" "You'll regret staying alive!" Both professors started their chants and magic light started showing on the tip of their wands.

"I better leave!" Seeing the timer drop to 0, my body immediately faded out of existence, both spells made their way past where I'm previously standing and absolutely shattered the Mirror of Erised, exploding in bright light, blinding both professors, the Headmaster and the two students sitting on the ground.

"NO!!!" Both Mcgonagall and Snape shrieked out when they realized I escaped again. Dumbledore just looked shocked and quite, very quite much so mad.
