"Too bad." Once they reached the castle, Jane led the way up the stairs to the headmaster's office.

Once they got up to the Headmaster's office, Riley flung open the doors without any warning. "Sir!"
The headmaster jumped, looking up and rolling his eyes when he saw Riley. "Not you again."

"Please, sir," Jane interjected, putting a hand on Riley's shoulder. "We were walking the grounds and saw a silver liquid on the outskirts of the Forbidden Forest. We—we followed it. Sir, someone stabbed a unicorn and...cut off its horn. It's still alive."

He raised an eyebrow. "The Forbidden Forest? You do realise why it's called the Forbidden forest, correct?"

"We understand sir, and we're sorry," she apologized with a glance at Riley. "But injuring or killing a unicorn is a crime and I felt that it is your business to know if crimes are committed on Hogwarts grounds."

The Headmaster sighed. "You are correct. Take me to the Unicorn please, my dear."

Jane nodded and headed through the hallways towards the exit. "We didn't find any evidence that could tell us who did it."

"I may be able to help it, if it is not wounded too badly."
When they finally got to the place where the creature was, Riley paled. "It's worse."

"Oh no..." By now, the unicorn's breathing was shallow. Its eyes were glazed over and it seemed to have given up.

The Headmaster crouched next to the unicorn, putting his hand on its flank. "I'm sorry," he said finally. "There is nothing that can be done."

Jane sighed. "That's what I thought..." she said, finding herself blinking back tears. "The killer will need to be found."

"We will try, but I don't know if there is any way of finding them," he replied, standing up. Riley glanced at Jane, wanting to comfort her, but had no idea how to.

Jane glanced back at the unicorn sadly as they left, shifting her gaze to her feet once they were out of the Forbidden Forest.

"I'm fine," she replied in a murmur. "Just...disappointed. And disgusted that someone would do this."
