Cobalt smiled a little,
"Ten points to Slytherin." he paused and frowned a little, "I'd say I was sorry for revealing secrets but your fears are your own. So the blame is partially your own."
He stepped in front of the downed figures the boggart had taken the shape of and paid them no mind. Behind him the boggart began to reform as he was now the unknowing target of it's attention. He waved Aireon back to his seat,
"Now... can anyone tell me why...?" he paused when he felt a shiver run down his spine. He turned to face the boggart and paled.
In front of the entire class the boggart had taken the form of a little boy, about the age of four, hanging from a noose on the ceiling. The boy was deathly pale but the sandy coloured hair and the pale skin showed that the boy was obviously related to Cobalt. Despite the complete absense of any wind, the boy began to sway lightly as if hit by a breeze. Cobalt simply stood there and looked at the boggart in complete silence, showing no signs of recognition other than a slight paling of his skin. Suddenly the boggart child opened it's eyes to stare at Cobalt with eyes his own shade of blue,
"Why didn't you come daddy?" the boy-boggart asked in a harsh and raspy voice. Cobalt flinched a little as the boy-boggart continued to fix him with his cold, dead, stare, "Why didn't you try and save me daddy? I cried and I screamed for you daddy..."
Cobalt closed his eyes,
"Enough..." he muttered softly. The boy-boggart blinked, a long and sluggish movement,
"You said you'd keep me safe daddy..." the boy-boggart continued, "You said no one would ever hurt me... but you weren't there daddy..."
Cobalt clenched his fists tightly,
"Enough." he stated firmly as he looked at the boggart. The boggart paused for a second before it continued,
"You said you'd never let anyone hurt me daddy... they only wanted the pebble you showed me..." he droned on, "Did I do wrong daddy? Was I not worth saving...?"
"ENOUGH!" Cobalt roared, the sheer volume and power behind the voice causing the boy-boggart to blink a few times in shock and the breeze to stop, "No, you weren't worth saving. Not at the loss of that. Now... get back in the god-damn cabinet."
The boggart's noose cut loose of the ceiling and the dead child slowly walked back into the cabinet, closing it as he walked in. Cobalt paused for a moment,
"Everyone but Aireon Thiren and Karma Black... get out..." he told the class firmly. When no one moved he turned round with a vicious snarl and slammed a fist into the nearest desk, shattering it, "I SAID GET OUT!"
