Off to See the Wizard [Active]
Character(s): Belle, Harry Dresden, maybe Yuuko if she's interested
Content: Belle brings Harry some of Yuna's hair. Um.
Setting: Yuuko's Shop
Time: Evening, Week 7
Warnings: None.
Belle was hardly the most athletic woman in Paixao, but she was quick and agile as she ran through the dimly lit streets of the city. The muffled flapping of her dark blue cloak was the only sound that could be heard outside her hurried footsteps and that was unnerving enough. Ever since Yuna had gone missing, every shadow and every flicker outside her vision made Belle jump. She was spooked, needless to say.
She clutched Yuna's brush tightly to her chest as she jogged, narrowing her eyes. Knowing that Yuna was waiting for rescue, that Hades could be doing any number of horrific things to her...it was almost enough to break Belle, enough to be consumed by anxiety. But after seeing how the others had stood up for themselves at the message board, their determination to help...well. She'd gathered strength from that if nothing else.
There it was. Yuuko's shop. Well, if she'd read the map right. She pushed open the door of the unassuming gate and cried, a little too desperately, "Hello? Is anyone there?"

"Hey now, it's not your fault. No one, not even wizards can predict the future perfectly. If you'd been around then in all likelihood you'd have been taken to, and we'd be in even worse shape. Now don't worry, you've already brought us a long way towards getting her back."
At her question Harry smiled brightly and said, "Yep, got my wizard license, and cat, and everything. This staff isn't just for show and impressing ladies after all."
Leaning said staff against the wall and taking several strands of hair from the brush, Harry tied them together with a long length of string that he fished out of his pocket. When he was finished the hair was tied near one end of the string, while Harry held the other end, letting it dangle in the air.
Winking at Belle, Harry said, "Here comes the cool part," before bending down and pulling out a piece of chalk. Placing the hair on the floor, Harry drew a circle around it with the chalk, and once it was complete sent a whisper of power to seal the circle.
Once that was complete he reached out with his magic and began to slowly enchant the hairs to seek out the connection they still shared with the woman they had belonged to, chanting softly in nonsense Latin as he did. The hairs were a few days old, and the magic within them had faded slightly, but Harry poured more will into the spell and finally felt it take hold.
Leaning back Harry broke the circle with his foot, feeling the rush as the magical energy that had built within it was released. Picking up the string, Harry watched as the hair on the end bounced around once or twice, before finally lifting up in defiance of gravity and pointing resolutely in one direction.
"Haha, got it!"
