Fawkes had brought them to the Quidditch field where there were, thankfully, no players in sight. Ashley knew that a few overachievers and rule breakers tended to ride their brooms late at night for practice and for fun, respectively. It was just their luck that nobody decided to rebel for a change. Heaving a sigh of relief, Ashley thanked the phoenix resting on her shoulder. She promptly realized that this was her chance to obtain the second ingredient to Tom’s Elixir. Minutes later, she was watching Fawkes fly off into the distance with a vial of fresh phoenix tears in her hand.
