| Crest takes Sarah into the safehouse, adorned with silver banners with the Strayer crest (*comedic drumroll*) on them. "It's this way." | |

| He takes her into a glowing blue room with the pensieve right in the middle of the room, he stepped to the side to let her pour the memory in. | |

| A silver haired boy of about 9 years was stationed in a pit surrounded by illusions of death eaters. To most his age this would be a troubling predicament, but to him, it was just a part of regular life. All the illusions shot spells toward the boy to which he dodged the majority.
He drew his own wand and fought off the oppressive images, and one by one they fell down until the boy stood the victor over the threat.
He looked towards his master, Progenitor, hoping to find him pleased. But the man approached him with a look of stalwart sternness. "Almost."
"Almost? But Grand father.."
The elder lifted his eyebrow at the informal name to which the boy corrected, "Sir, I defeated all of them!"
"You did. But.." The man bend over and picked up a stray piece of Crest's hair from the ground, "you were hit."
"Sir, that's.. a negligible hit."
"This time it was, but next time, that hit could've killed an innocent or you. Try it again..." He left the pit and clapped his hands as more apparitions appeared.
-----------------------------------
At the end of the day, Crest could hardly muster the energy to walk back to his home. His legs felt like they were made of solid steel and sweat poured out of his brow as his body had reached twice it's limit.
Only his willpower kept him moving back towards his minuscule residence where he opened the door and collapsed on his hard stone bed. His muscles were murdering him from the inside out and his bones felt like they were but twigs.
As he laid down, he knew that tomorrow would only be exactly the same and he knew he had only two hours of sleep to get to ready himself for more strain and merciless drills. He set his alarm clock and waited for his next segment of torture to begin.
--------------------------------
OOC There will be more, but I'm having dinner soon, feel free to react | |

| However Crest's memorial torments weren't at a conclusion.
He arrived back at his training, his face unnaturally glum. "Something troubles you Crest?" Progenitor asked as more of an interrogation than an act of sympathy.
"Sir, Helm died the other day." Crest said trying to hide his depression from his master.
"Yes, that's correct." Progenitor stated harshly as he opened up a book to begin his instruction.
"That's it sir? He was family to all of us and all you can say is that?"
"What else is there to say Crest? I'm sorry for the inevitability of his failings?"
Crest clenched his fist and ran forward with gritted angry teeth to strike him, but the much more experienced fighter managed to dodge the attack and redirect Crest to fall on his back.
"Let me share with you some wisdom Crest and I do hope you're listening for insubordination like this will not be tolerated again. The only reason I excuse you this time is because of your potential to be the next Head Strayer."
He bent over and looked at his apprentice, a boy of such youth, into the eyes, "All doors that involve emotion will lead to pain, suffering and death. That is the reason why we as Strayers strive to dampen and obsolete these potential hinderances. We can carry the burdens others cannot. We can do the tasks no one else can. But when one opens themselves to feeling, one is opening themselves to be hurt. It's a weakness, one you of anything here cannot afford and aren't allowed to have."
He picked up the fallen boy and stands him upright, "I hope you remember this, one day you'll be leading this place and I don't wish for the sacred and noble covenants we have maintained be discarded." | |

| At last the memory was at it's end, leaving Crest visibly downtrodden. | |

| Crest sat at the bed, reliving those events took more out of him then he thought. | |

| I walk in, looking extremely concerned when I see Crest. I sit next to him, and gently start rubbing his back comfortingly. "Crest," My voice is soft and soothing, "What happened?" | |
