"Yes, and he said Professor McGonagall registered me right away last night"
I put the necklace back on my neck. |
I gulped down the cornflakes. "She registered you?"
|
I shrugged. "Thats what Dumbledore said. Maybe she sent a letter to the Ministry or something. Dont ask me. She is a Animagus to you know"
|
"Yes, she is..." I replied thoughtfully. "She'd probally have to register you, after all..."
|
"Yes, but not right away"
I finished up my cereal. "Lets take a walk" I transformed into a falcon, and flew outside. |
I also finished my cornflakes, and followed her.
Once I saw the lake (Even from a distance), I guess I became dreamy eyed, and started staring at it. |
I saw Terra, and swooped down, onto her shoulder. One of my feathers came of and landed on her robe.
|
Out of he corner of my eye, I saw Karli, and noticed that one of her feathers came out, and landed on my robes. I continued staring at it, then slowly started walking towards it. It seemed that the more I looked at it, the more I wanted to go into it.
|
I bit Terra ear slightly, to get her attention. I also flapped me wings. I started to make a shrieking sound.
|
I snapped out of it for a minute, and placed Karli down, then started to walk again...
My eyes seemed to be more lavender than usal, I think, as I reached the lake, and looked into the water, seeing my reflection. |
I transformed back into a human. I grabbed Terra, and dragged her over to a tree.. I pinched her.
"Snap out of it! Whats wrong with you?" I asked her. |
I yelped for a second. "Mehmmmmmmeh..." I mumbled as my gaze returned to the lake.
|
I got up and pulled her back inside.
"there is only one thing to do" I thought. I transformed into a falcon, and bit her hard on the hand. She started to bleed. |
"OWWWWWWWW!" I shrieked as something bit me on my left hand. I snapped out of my daze-for good, hopefully- and stared down at my hand. Mixed with the normal blood, there was some silvery blue...
|
I transformed back.
"Sorry about that. Ewww...is that Siren blood?" I asked, taking a closer look. |
I looked up, and said "Thanks, actually... I guess so...." Saying that, I looked up at her again. "Weird, huh?" I looked back down at my hand.
|
"Very....the cuts not that deep. I never knew that I had such a sharp beak" I said, finally looking away from the blood.
|
"Um, Karli, I uh, ah, have to, well, um gotta go in..." I looked out at the lake. It entranced me. "I'll be fine if I do..."
|
I followed her gaze.
"Do what? Go into the lake? I always wondered what fish taste like..." I said. I transformed and flew out to the lake. I saw a fish, flew down, and grabbed it. I killed it instantly with my claws. I dropped it, flew after it, and took a bite. "Well, its food" I thought. |
I whimpered, stragely, then ran over to the mass of water and took of my robes.... Then, dove in.
|
I lifted my head from the fish, and saw Terra dive into the water. I took flight, and flew over the water. It was as clear as ever, and I could see Terra clearly.
|
The water soon grew darker...... And then, in my other form, silver tail, silvery blonde hair, deep, deep lavender colored eyes and all, (with my black tanktop still on too) when the water cleared again I dove up. "Bye! I'm off to see the squid! And maybe the merpeople I heard about!" I called to Karli, who I saw was above the lake, then dove again with the help of my tail, to the deeps were the water wasn't very clear.
|
I stopped when Terra disappeared. Something big hit me. I turned and saw a Eagle Owl. It started to attack me. It went right for my necklace. He ripped the medallion right off the chain, and it fell into the water. I remembered Dumbledores words.
"Dont get it wet" I flew down after it. I saw a purple light, and there was a giant thump, that caused some waves to appear. My bones felt lighter. I flew over to shore, the Eagle Owl had flown away. I tryied to transform but I couldnt...I was stuck... |
When I was just about to go into the mervillage, I saw a bright purple light above, and...
Oh no! I better go see what it is! I thought as I started to swim up... I quickly transformed again, then saw Karli's necklace floating in the water... Grabbing it, I lept out of the water. "Karli! Were are you?!" I called as I stood up, putting on my robes. |
I flew quickly over to Terra, I landed on her shoulder, and started to shreik again.
|
"What... Oh..." I stared to get a idea in my head. "Are you... Stuck?" Knowing how to transform into something else myself, I guess that's why I sensed something. So I guessed. But I didn't know why she was possibly stuck... "Flap your wings if I'm right."
|
I flapped my wings.
"Who knows how to communicate with animals or something?" I thought. "Johann!" I flapped my wings harder. |
"Okay, okay, let's go." I said, running towards the castle, picking up my bag which I had dropped in the process of the.. Trance.
|
Cassidy went back to the dormitory to work on her bo staff. She changed into a pair of overalls and a scrubby tee shirt, and hefted the heay chunk of maple onto her shoulder. Down the hallway she went, carrying the log easily. She was searching for a place...somwhere where she could be by herself and work on her bo.
Suddenly, she found a door that she could have sworn was not there yesterday. Curious, she pushed the door open with her free hand, and inside was a woodworking room! Cassidy narrowed her eyes in confusion, wondering how on Earth something like that could end up at Hogwarts, but decided to go in and work on her bo anyway. She planed the wood first, stripping it of its bark. Next, she whittled it down to a slim, six-foot rod, and spent the next few hours shaping it carefully, pouring every ounce of concentration into making it perfect. When that task was completed, without help from her wand, she brought it to a tub of laquer, and spent the rest of the afternoon painting it. She worked well into the night, but took little notice of the time that passed. When she had put two coats of balck laquer on the staff, she set it to dry. Cassidy gazed at her handiwork sleepily, her admiration shining through her drooping eyelids. It was there in the mysterious woos shop that she fell asleep. *** Cassidy awoke in the middle of the night with a start, nightmares had plagued her dreams once more. She looked up from the woodworking table to see her bo, completely dry and ready for combat. She smiled, feeling a little more awake, and took the bo from its hanger. She hefted it in her hands expertly, surveying the craftsmanship with a critical eye. It was perfect. She longed to practice, to swing the bo around at invisible enemies, to feel the rush of combat. And suddenly, the room began to change. The walls ebbed in strange waves as they transformed into bamboo instead of pine. A window to her right looked out onto a shinto rock garden, and adorning the walls of the woodshop-turned-dojo were carious scrolls of kanji. Cassidy looked around her in awe, testing the hardwood floor with her now bare feet. She stepped into the middle of the room, and began to practice. She swung her bo staff in graceful arches, sharp stabs, strong parries. Each movement was more confident than the last. She smiled to herself, and glanced at her watch. It was nearly dawn once more. She got her things together and headed to the owlry. "Kaze!" she hissed quietly, so as not to disturb the other owls who had just returned from their nightly flights. Kaze spun his head backwards to look at her, slightly annoyed, as he was about to go to sleep. "Kaze, I need you to take something to the wand shop in Diagon Alley, and get it back to me as soon as you can!" she told him urgently. She tied her wand to the bo staff, and held it up for him to grab. "I've enclosed a note. Bring this back as soon as you can." Kaze flew off with the long, heavy package. Cassidy watched him leave quetly, a smile spreading across her face. Suddenly, she remembered her brother's arrival was today, and a disgusted frown replaced her cheery mood. She went back to Gryffindor tower to wash up before breakfast once more. *** OOC: Enter, Andrew!!! Name: Andrew Age: 12 (2nd year) Gender: Male Description: very fair like Cassidy. He stands two heads taller than she does, and is built muscular, but not like a body builder! He has deep, darker blue eyes than Cassidy does, and his hair is cut short in a spiky buzz. He has a very sharp, angular face, that mkes him look older than he is. Personality: Andrew is a lot more outgoing than Cassidy. He tends to enjoy getting into trouble, and doesn't mind getting one anyone's bad side. He is very competative with Cassidy, and is jealous of her calm, reserved attitude, because she is recognized by her father for that a lot, and he is punished for his rash attitude. He plans to make her life diffecult at Hogwarts. Pet: a barn owl named Screech House: Slytherin (Don't misjudge him too much...because...well...you'll find out!) IC: Andrew walked confidently through the doors of Hogwarts, and Screech, his owl, flew to the owlry to chat with Kaze. Andrew put on a smirk. He couldn't wait to see hsi sister, and bother the heck out of her. He saw the Great Hall up ahead, and decided to get some breakfast. He sat down at the Slytherin table, with a group of well-to-do looking chaps. Andrew ran his fingers through his hair, glancing at the door, as a very tired-looking Cassidy walked through to doors. She sat down at the Gryffindor table, and did not awknowlege him. |
I flew into the castle the next morning. Sunday. I had one more day to return to normal. I flew into the Great Hall. The Slytherin Table. Food was placed neatly infront of everyone there. I saw a new boy...he looked like Cassidy. I squinted my hawk like eyes. I flew at full speed down the Slytherin table, knocking all the goblets down> I reached out for the new boys toast with my claws, and flew away with it, swooping around the ceiling.
"What in the world!?" I heard a boy say. I felt proud of myself, those Slytherins deserved it.... |
I sighed and went to my lessons....
-- -- The next day, at brekfast, I spotted a new boy at the Slytherin table. He had a resemblance to Cassidy... Shaking my head to get rid of those thoughts, I sat down at the Gryffindor table. |
Next stop, the Gryffindor Table. I spotted Terra, and flew over to her landing on the table, knocking over her goblet. Other kids watched me.
"Terra? Is that yours?" asked a brown haired boy, as he pointed to me. |
OOC: Sorry for the long post last time, guys! Whew!
IC: Andrew watched the falcon fly away with his toast, shrugging it off, and dabbing at his spilt orange juice with a napkin. The other Slytherin boys cursed the falcon under their breath. "What was that?" he asked them. "Got a name there?" snapped one of them viciously. "Yeah," Andrew said, raising an eyebrow at them. He grinned. "Andrew. My friends call me Andy." "Heh..." a boy with greasy hair smirked. "He seems alright." The boy leaned across the table at him. "That falcon," he said, quietly, but gravely, "is an Animagus. She's been giving us some trouble, so watch out for her, and on't be afraid to give her a hex or two." He sat back down and laughed heavily, his round beady eyes shinning darkly. Andrew snickered. *** Cassidy saw Karli fly through the Slytherins, knocking goblets and food right and left. She felt her heart sink, not only thinking of her brother, but of the unprokoked action Karli had taken. Cassidy pushed her scrambled eggs around with her fork absently, feeling gloomy despite the good weather outside. She hoped Karli or Terra or someone would come in. It would certainly lift her spirits. |
The golden chained dangled around my neck. I picked it up with my beak, and chewe on it a little.
|
"Well, no, she's not..." I said to the boy, then loked at Karli, then, saw Cassidy.
"Hey Cassidy!" I called to her. "Come over here!" |
I flew over to Cassidy, and landed on her shoulder.I lifted my right wing and start to clean it.
|
Cassidy saw Terrn and Karli, in her bird form, at the other end of the table. Terra called to her, and she came right over, taking a seat across from her.
"Hi guys," she greeted them, her voice melancholy. She cast a furtive glance over at the Slytherin table, grimacing as if she had been burned. "My brother's here." *** Andrew glanced at Cassidy as she glanced at him. He smiled, waving at her along with the people she was sitting with, and turned back around to speak with his friends. "Look, [/I]Andy[I]," one of them snapped, annoyance tugging at his features. "I don't think you really belong here in Slytherin. We do NOT talk to or even remotely communicate with any of the other houses unless we are forced to." He had a strange glint in his eye. The greasy haired boy whipped out his wand, and cast a curse across the room at Cassidy. Without her wand, she could nto defend herself. The spell took the bench out from under her, tossing the Gryffindors unfortunate enough to be on her side. She got up from the floor, calm and complacant, she did not react. She only helped her fellow Gryffindor set the bench back up. Andrew felt a little guilty, but it was all in good fun. Besides, it probably served her right. She had probably beaten up a Slytherin or two in the time she had been here. *** Cassidy helped the others replace the fallen bench. A few of them casted nasty glances at the Slytherins, but she paid them no heed. She kept her reserved, calm expression and temperament, but inside, her heart ached. Andrew had done nothing to prevent their spell casting. He had more magical ability than she. Why hadn't he done something? Suddenly, she was distracted by Kaze's magnificant white form flying through the air quickly. He dropped a small package into her waiting hands, took a bite of her ham, and flew off once more. Cassidy ripped open the package excitedly. Beyond the brown wrapping paper was a small wand box, and around the box was a note. She read it over quickly, and opened the box. Inside was her wand. "Check this out you guys!" she exclaimed happily, standing up from the table to give it enough space. Her face beaming, she gave the incantation: "Bo Ferula!" The wand quivered and began to change quickly. When the transformation was complete, the black laquered maple bo staff Cassidy had crafted rested in her hands. On the upper end of the bo, imbedded very craftily in it, was her wand. "It's so wicked!" she exclaimed, hefting the rod in her hands. "The wand shop At Diagon Alley did it for me! I didn't expect it so fast! Now, if I get in a bad scrape, I can fight and use magic at the same time!" With a quick incantation, the wand returned to normal. "Isn't this great?" she said gleefully, sitting back down and finishing her breakfast. For the time being, she forgot about Andrew. |
I glared at the boy, then returned my gaze to Cassidy's wand/staff.
"That's awesome, Cass!" I exclaimed, then watched as it turned back. "So, what's new? I havn't seen you for a while." |
I didnt hear Cassidy, I was staring at the Slytherin table. Eventually I took flight. I flew over to the boy that knocked the bench down and started nipping at him, and clawing him with my claws. Andrew was next. I did the same thing, only when I was finished, I perched myself upon the table, and started at him angrily.
|
"Ah...well, actually...a lot. We've got to catch up...but...not here. What I have to tell you can't leave the three of us," Cassidy cast a glance at Karli. "Let's go to Gryffindor Tower. It'll be safer to talk there, especially since it's Sunday, and nice out. Everyone will be outside!"
Suddenly, she heard the commotion Karli had caused at the Slytherin table. Her temper rose slightly, and fists clenched, she approached the table. To everyone's suprise, she turned her attention to Karli. She gestured for her to land on her arm, and took her a few steps away from the table, far enough so they couldn't hear. "Why are you doing this?" she asked angrily. "A reaction is what they want. They want to get us in trouble, and they want us to stoop to their level. You're letting them control you. You're letting them win, and making everything worse between our houses. Just leave them alone. Don't stoop to their level. That isn't what Gryffindors do." With that, she let karli into the air, and resumed her seat with the other Gryffindors. |
"Wait a sec." I whispered to Cassidy when I turnd again.
I pulled out my wand, and whispered "Wihoraq!" In the direction of the boy who had jynxed our bench. A jet of water hit his head, making his hairy soggy and wet, causing several Gryffindors to roar with laughter. He didn't, and apparrently wanted to glare at the person who did it, but he didn't see anyone do it, so, case closed. "Sure, let's go!" I said brightly. |
I made a hissing sound.
"Talking to a bird are you? Your crazy!" said a boy loudly, and everyone in the room turned to us.((Incase you dont understand the boy knows that Karli is a Animagus, but he wants other people to think that Cassidy is crazy)) |
OOC: Edited my last post ^_^
|
OCC: Okay, I edited mine to!
|
Cassidy tensed her muscles, and worked on controlling her anger. She wanted very much to walk over there and belt him as hard as she could. She would not give him the satisfaction.
When the jet of water hit the Slytherin, Cassidy only shook her head sadly. She looked at her friends, feeling a smelancholy as ever. "Let's get to the tower," she suggested softly, getting up from her seat. "Karli knows already, but I have a lot to tell you Terra." |
I nodded, suddenly quiet. What could it be? "Okay, Cassidy." And we started walking.
|
I could sense that many eyes were upon me. The whole Slytherin table was. I turned my head, and hissed at them. I quickly flew off of Cassidys shoulder. I flew over to Terra, and hooked myself onto her pocket. I quickly reached inside, and pulled out my medallion. I picked up the chain around my neck, and stuck themedallion and chain together. The medallion seemed to melt back onto it. I tryed to transform, and it worked. Right there, in front of the whole school, I changed back to human. I grabbed Terra and Cassidys arm, and dragged them away, towards the Gryffindor Tower.
|
"Glad to have you back, Karli, even though you werent really 'gone'." I said, in a feeble attempt to break the silence.
|
"i am to. I feel like, I can fly!" I said. "As long as people dont stare at me, I will be happy!"
|
The Gryffindor Common room was lit dimly by an abandoned fire. There were no other students in the room, and Cassidy chose her favorite, worn-out chair by the hearth.
"Okay," she began, looking at her friends darkly. "As you know, I've got detention with Snape, and last night, before the encounter with the troll, my detention was to be out in the Forbidden Forest with him. I was so confused, and really scared. We got to a little cave in the forest, and in it were these eggs. Snape was really concerned with them, and when we went to leave, this THING attacked us! I was so dreadufl. The thing had the head of a lion, the body of a goat, and the tail of a dragon. I've never seen anything like it, except in our textbooks. And Snape and I...we had to fight it...and I got...this..." She lifted her robes away to reveal the deep scar on her side. She winced as the cloth rubbed up against it. "Everyone thinks it was all something stupid," she told them, feeling anger rising in her tone. She suppressed it. "The only people who know about this are you, me, Dumbledore, Snape, and Hagrid. So don't tell anyone!" She looked around suspiciously, feeling like she was being watched, but when she found nothing, she settled into the chair, feeling a little more relaxed. "I really hope tomorrow's detention isn't as bad as the last one," she said dismally, letting out a sigh. |
I nodded vigerously. "Uh huh, I bet that's how you must feel."
|
"So, Dumbledore, is letting you go to detention with Snape again!?" I asked Cassidy surprised.
"But...he knows what happened last time!" |
"Dumbledore does know," Cassidy said, feeling uneasy once more. "Maybe there is more to this than meets the eye? Or maybe he's told Snape that he can't have THAT kind of a detention ever again? I don't know. But I would like a chance to find out who or what allowed that thing to live in the Forest...."
She felt a great itch for adventure. She took out her wand, twirling it in her fingers carefully, watching it circle her fingers. "Are you two up for a little...investigation?" she asked, a mischievious grin, something very rare for her indeed, spreading across her face. |
"Well...." I said, clasping my wand and looking down at it.
"Sure." I said, with a little grin of my own. "Does it require any under water activities?" |
"I don't know...it might?" Cassidy said, feeling excitement rising within her. "We'll be going into the Forbidden Forest!"
Suddenly, she heard the sound of heavy breathing. Cassidy remained quiet, but her expression became alert. She gripped her wand tightly. She heard footsteps on the roof. "Four feet," she said difinitively. "No human can climb on that roof." She looked at her friends urgently. "If we are going to go," she told them, rising to her feet. "We need to go now before we can be stopped." |
"Well, let's go!" I said, feeling excitement swell up inside me. "I'm going to get my special cloak- this dark violet one with hood;perfect for sneaking around!"
Saying this, I swiftly ran up to the girl's dorm, pulled out my cloak, and slipped out of my black one, and replaced it with the purple. As quick as I had gone, I returned to them, out of breath. "Let's go now!" |
"I have my own disguise" I said, as I pulled off my necklace. I handed it to Cassidy. "Look after this, people will know Im a Animagus if they see this" I said.
And then I turned into a falcon. I spread my wings, and flew out of the common room. When I got outside I flew around, waiting for Terra and Cassidy... OCC: Im going out for a while, so please dont go so far ahead, like to any dangerous parts, because I will miss it!! |
I gestured to Cassidy. "Come on, let's go, Cass." I said with a swish of my cloak. Quickly, I went out of the Common Room, hoping she would follow.
|
OOC: I was canoeing for 4 days! It was awesome! Anyway I'll just start in the Great Hall. How about that?
IC: I walked into the great Hall to find Will there talking to other ravenclaw students. "How are you?" I said. "Haven't seen you in awhile." "Yeah! It's been a long time. Where were you? I looked everywhere for you!" He said as he gave me a high five. "I don't know really know. I can't remember anything passed the last SAM practice." I said realizing that I had lost my memories of the last few days and maybe it was a good thing, but I didn't worry about it. "Cool. Sit down and lets catch up!" He said as we sat down and started talking. |
OOC: Nice to have you back, Raichu Master! Woot for canoeing! It's a lot of fun!
IC: "Right. Let's go!" Cassidy said excitedly, trying to forget about the footsteps she had heard on the roof. She followed Terra out of the common room, down the twisting corridoors, and out of the castle, heading to the Forbidden Forest in the shadows. It was dark in at the edge of the forest. Cassidy suppressed a shiver as they stood at the edge of adventure. She looked back over her shoulder to see if anyone had followed. Nothing. "Okay....let's go in!" she told Terra and Karli, clutching Karli's medallion, which she had put around her neck for safe keeping. "The cave is a further in, about half a mile or so, and a little further east..." She trailed off, her nervousness beginning to take over. She hesitated, and looked back at her friends. |
I shrugged, seeing Cassidy look at us. "Let's go! Um....Well, any underwater mysteries, then, um, I'm the girl for the job!" I joked, a bit nervous though.
|
I flew ahead alittle and perched on a tree. Once Terra and Cassidy got a bit farther, I flew off it, and returned by their side. I transformed back into a human.
"Do you think we are going to come across that creature?" I asked them, as I set my foot free from a branch. |
"Maybe so... Very likely..." I said, staring out at the trees.
|
I heard a sound in the bush. I jumped a little, and not meaning to I turned into a falcon. I quickly changed back.
"That was odd..." I said, staring at the spot that made the noise. "Do you want me to go see?" |
"Are you sure you should go alone?" I asked worriedly. "Suppose.....?"
|
After awhile I noticed all the kids in the Great Hall looking at me like I murdered someone. I stood up and said to the staring crowd, "What's wrong? First Karli and now all of you. What did I do?"
A tall boy stepped from the crowd, he was from Hufflepuff. "Your just a bully who thinks he can push us around when you want to." He said. I looked clsly at him, he had a very young face he must have been a first year student. "What do you mean by bully? What makes you think this?" I asked innocently. "The way you treat Karli and the way you beat those Slytherin boys up. You should be ashamed of yourself!" A seventh year girl from Ravenclaw said as she stood up. "I don't know what you mean! I always treated Karli as nice as possible, she's one of my best friends. And I did nothing to any slytherin boys!" I testified. Oopsy! Flames voice said coming clear into my mind. WHAT DO YOU MEAN!? I snapped. I paralyzed those three slytherin boys. And I was sort of nasty to Karli when I was in your body. He explained. NO! I yelled in my mind. I then brought my attention back to the crowd. "I have nothing to say to about the Slytherin boys I knocked out. They deserved what they got! As for Karli I have no clue what you mean. What harm did I do to Karli?" I said standing up for my dragon. Your lucky I'm a Dragon lover or you would be in big trouble right now. I said to Flame. Thank you Flame said. "You always treat her like she's inferior, same with all of us. We don't like it. We want you to apologize to Karli!" A boy demanded. "Fine. I will. As soon as I see her." I said now realizing why Karli wasn't talking to me. |
"Im a Animagus...I will be fine.....trust me" I said, in a reassuring voice. I transformed, and flew over to the bush. Crouched down behind it, was a small creature. It looked like the creature Cassidy described.
I flew over to Cassidy and Terra,and flew around them, trying to tell them to follow me. |
Cassidy looked at her friends. She heard the noise too. It sounded heavy...about the size of that deadly creature she had encountered. She grimaced.
"I really don't think we want to find out what it is..." she told Terra and Karli nervously. She had her wand out in plain view now, and spoke the incantation. "Bo ferula!" The wand took the form of her black laquered bo staff. She held it at the ready, but then thought better of it. Another twig snapped, Cassidy shuddering at the heavy sound it made. "Maybe...we should...go...." she said, taking a few more steps back, these ones quicker. Suddenly, something growled, and sprung from the bushes! A white tiger leapt for Cassidy, its massive paws baring long, sharp claws. She narrowed her eyebrows, as if expecting this enemy, and parried the tiger's massive weight with the force of a blow from her wooden staff. The tiger snarled at her angrily, showing its large, white teeth. Cassidy stared him down. "Will you knock it off!" she yelled at the tiger. "Andrew!" "Aw...you're no fun, sis," the tiger spoke, as he slowly transformed back to the dashing Andrew. He smiled arrogantly at her. "I've brought you a little present." Cassidy looked at the spot he had gestured to. From behind a dead, black tree emerged Snape. "Students out in the Forbidden Forest?" he scolded haughtily. "I daresay...whata misfortune. Fifty points from Gryffindor house, and it seems you will be joining Cassidy in detention tomorrow night. Now, get out of my sight before something BAD happens to you." Andrew leered at Cassidy and her friends, twirling his Animagus pendant around his fingers. She turned to her friends, looking apologetic, but her remorse soon turned to dread. Before her, and behind her friends were little baby chimaera, the hatchlings of the creature she had encountered with Snape. They looked back at Cassidy and her friends hungrily... |
I blinked. If I wasn't mistaken, those were Chimaera. Baby ones infact. And they didn't look too friendly...
|
When Snape had arrived, I quickly flew unseen into a tree. I wasnt caught. I flew silently back to the Great Hall. Johann was there. I landed on the Gryffindor table. He didnt know I was a Animagus. I probaly wouldnt notice me.
|
"She...left us??" Cassidy gasped, as she saw Karli fly away.
"What are you talking about?" Snape demanded, stepping in front of them. He was now between them and the chimaera. "N-nothing," Cassidy said quickly. She clutched the animagus medallion around her neck, smiling inside. Snape didn't know. The chimaera left them no time to talk. The leapt to attack them, gnashing their teeth, stomping their hard hooves, swiping at them with their dragon tails. Cassidy parried as many attacks as she could, her side with the scar hurting all the while. The little creatures, seeing they were outpowered, retreated back into the shadows of the forest before anyone could destroy them. Snape, who had been using spells to keep them at bay, looked back at Cassidy sharply. Cassidy looked at Andrew harshly, narrowing her eyebrows at him. Cassidy looked at Terra, and stepped off briskly for Hogwarts. She looked back at Snape only once, noticing how he favored his right leg. |
OCC: Oh, just keep it. It brings a little more fun into the RP. Karli left the forest anyways since Snape had arrived. Your such a good Roleplayer! All of you are! ^_^
|
OOC: That's nice of you to say. *Sniff* I feel all warm and fuzzy inside...^^
oO; |
OOC: Thanks, Legenday_Pokegirl! I posted again....a little too late :P
|
OCC: Really? Im always warm and fuzzy inside! O_-
|
I turned around to see an animal thing on the gryfindor table. "WHAT THE!?" I said. I then connected to it's mind assidentally. KARLI! WHAT HAPPENED? I said to the animal.
|
I flapped my wings and took flight.
"Blimey! You dont have to scare me!" I said to him. "Im an Animagus! One of my life secrets, well, not anymore its not. And Im not muggle born. I was held slave at my aunts place, Cassidy Josh and Terra and I have faced a troll and a Death Eater! They are out there in the forest right now!" I said flying over to him, and landing on his shoulder. |
"Blow me down!" I said laughing. "Anyway, I"m sorry for acting like a jerk. Can you forgive me?" I asked.
Before she could answer I turned my attention the troll and death eater. "Do you guys need help!?" I asked. |
"No. becaus that was so last night! Right now, they are walking towards the school. And maybe I can forgive you....oh....alright then...." I said. "But keep that dragon away from me, I dont want him to burn my tail feathers off!"

Cassidy had reached the school doors. She threw them open with such force, that they banged against the walls noisily, the sound echoing through the halls. She had never been so cross in all her life!
"I'm so sorry for getting you detention," she told Terra sincerely. He brother slithered past, winking at Terra flirtaciously. He carried on towards the Slytherin common room. Cassidy made a face. "Oh, I can't stand him!" SHe wrung her fists, and turned her bo back to her normal wand. She put it in her pocket hurriedly, and took the steps leading to Gryffindor Tower. "I...need a minute..." she told Terra as she went through the porthole. Once through, she dashed up the stairs and into her room, where she threw herself onto her bed in utter frustration, and shed the tears she had been holding back for days. |
I laughed at Karli's comment and said, "I'll try my best." I then ran out the castle and awaited the monsters, wand in hand.
|
OOC: Raichu master, the monsters kind of fled, and Snape is lurking around in the Forest....O_o
|
I replied: "It's okay, really."
Just then, her brother came by and winked at me.... I just stared. When he had gone, Cassidy stated what she thought of her brother.. Pretty much. "I can see why." I said, shaking my head. Then "I...need a minute..." came from her, and I nodded. |
I flew after Johann.
"Leave them alone! They didnt hurt us!" I said at once, grabbing his robes with my claws, and pulling him towards the castle. |
OOC: Oh, having Andy as a character is going to be so much fun!!!! I never get to be terrible in real life!!! Bwahahhaha!!! *ahem* Anyway...
IC: Andrew grabbed his books from his room in Slytherin, and headed down the hallway past the Great Hall. He spied a few of Cassidy's friends, and watched them carefully for a while. "Hey," came a voice from behind him. It was a Slythering boy, the one from breakfast with the greasy black hair and the dark, beady eyes. He was built considerably...large...and leered at Andrew suspiciously. "You really need to straighten yourself out. Stop associating yourself with those losers." "My sister is in Gryffindor," he told the boy indignantly, standing up straight. "You're sister? Ha...I knew you were no good," he snapped. "Listen, if you want to live in Slytherin, you have to play by our rules. Call me Randy." Andrew looked at him, suprise and suspicion covered his face as he crossed his arms over his chest. Randy smirked. "Play Quiddich much?" he asked, eyeing Andrew's muscular form. "I bet you'd make a fiar beater." "If the team was looking for members...." Andrew said, grinning. "Oh they are," Randy told him. "You should go ask about it..." Andrew smiled arrogantly once more. He nodded at Randy and followed him to the Slytherin common room once more to meet the team captain. OOC: Anyone wanna fill me in on the Quiddich teams in this rp? |
OOC: Such as who's what?....
|
OOC: Yeah, like who is on the house teams..what position...etc
|
OOC: What's happening now? I'm sorry! I'm just too tired to read the last few pages.
|
OOC: No problem, Marina99!
Cassidy had detention with Snape, and she had to go into the Forbidden Forest with him in search of something. They found a nest of unhatched chimaera, and the adult attacked them. With each other's help, they slayed the bloodthirsty beast, but Cassidy passed out from fatigue before she knew whether or not the eggs had been destroyed. She woke up about an hour later in the hospital wing, and no one knew of her trip to the Forest with Snape except for her, Snape, Dumbledore, and Hagrid (who had come to carry Cassidy back to Hogwarts.) We encountered a cave troll in the dungeon soon after, much against the rules the teachers had set. Everywone was warned to return to their dorms, but we snuck down, and found Karli's Aunt's butler with a cave troll. He was a Death Eater, and much more powerful than us, but Cassidy slew the cave troll, and the group held off the butler for a while. Eventually we got help from Dumbledore I think, and of course, got into trouble. During this time, we discovered that Karli was an Animagus, and she changes into a falcon from time to time. Just recently, Cassidy, Karli, and Terra escaped a close call in the Forbidden Forest with the chimaera hatchlings, and all got detention from Snape, who was lurking mysteriously in the Forest. Also, Cassidy's twin and rival, Andrew has come to Hogwarts. He's a little mean, and lives in Slytherin, so beware! I'm sure the others can fill in the other details a little better than I! |
OOC: That's a bit too many pages... Where are we?
|
While all her friends were out, Berii stayed inside the Gryffindor dorm. She was all covered up in her bed, she was upset. Never had she been that upset, she was always the cheerful one, there was definately something wrong with her.
She sighed as jumped out her bed. "'Naa, what's wrong with me?" she asked. Berii was answered with a soft, kinda worried hoot. She looked at her worried owl's face and smiled faintly. "Maybe I'm just tired, no need for worrying." she said in fake cheerful voice. As she finished her sentence, she patted Anna and went to the bathroom. "Yeah, I'm just tired. I just need to relax..." she thought as finished up. OOC: Thanks, Skye! |
OOC: Oops. Dang I need to get with it, I mean I'm falling behind. haha
IC: "Oops, sorry, Karli." I said cheerfully. "You might want to turn back to human, I mean you don't want people thinking your a freak do you?" I asked very seriously. "But if you don't care, then I have no reason to worry!" I said smiling. |
"I wouldnt be a "freak" just because Im a Animagus, Johann. But fine, I will, once we get back to the castle. You know the rule, no students out after dark"
I flew ahead into the school and transformed. I waited in the corridor for Johann, and maybe Terra or Cassidy. |
Cassidy, frustrated at her inability to control her emotions, dried her tears bitterly. It was now dark in the room, and she went into the bathroom to wash the tears off her face. She towled her face gently, and went to her trunk, where all her books were stored during the weekend.
She pulled out her Potions textbook, and went down to the common room to study. She hoped her friends might be there, as her mind was really not in the right place to study... *** Meanwhile, in the Slytherin common room, Andrew was chatting it up with Nathan, the Quiddich captain. He seemed pretty convinced of Andrew's ability, and put him on the team as a beater. Andrew smirked, and went up to his room to go to sleep for the night. Before he did, he sent his owl out with a message for Cassidy. *** Cassidy had just settled down in her favorite chair near the fireplace, when Andrew's barn owl flew through the window to land next to her. "What's up?" she asked him tiredly. He handed her a scroll of paper. "Thanks." The owl flew off, leaving Cassidy to open her scroll: Looks like I'm already miles ahead of you, Cassidy. I made beater for the Slytherin Quiddich team! Andy Cassidy scowled, and threw the piece of parchment into the fire in disgust. Secretly, she wished she could get on the Gryffindor team so she could kick his butt... Rolling her eyes, she picked up her Potions book, and started to read. |
I made my way up to the common room. I saw Cassidy, and went to sit down beside her.
"Whats the matter?" I asked her, noticing her tear stained cheeks. |
After minutes in the library, just studying and doing stuff, I finally went up to the Common Room, so that I could read without..... Kissing. (Two 3rd years that were abviously boyfriend and girlfriend were kissing quite slopply behind a shelf)
Once I got in, I saw Cassidy, throwing a piece of parchment iunto the Common Room fire... The starting to read a book as well. Walking up to her, and clutching my own books, I said "Hi Cassidy! What, um, was that, um parchment-in-the-fire about? And... Is something wrong?" |
"Oh...my brother," she said softly to Terra and Karli. "He's made the Slytherin Quiddich Team..."
She put down her book, and sighed heavily. She rubbed her swollen eyes and rested her chin on her hand, her eelbow on the arm of the chair. "What have you guys been up to?" she asked, trying to change the subject. "I was just studying for Potions if you want to join me..." |
"Well, you know, its never to late to join the Quidditch team. I hear they have a new spot open", I said kindly to Cassidy. "Anyways, I would be glad to join you for studying"
I pulled out my Potions text from my book bag, and started to read. |
My eyes went wide. "He. Made. The. Quidditch team?!" I said in shock.
Then, hearing Cassidy asking us if we wanted to study with her, I said "Sure, but I'm studying for Charms and Transfigeration as well." And with that remark, I sat down next to her, and placed my books on the table. |
After a while, I closed my books and said, "Im going to bed. Night guys"
I walked up to the dormitory. It was pretty late, and some girls were already fast asleep. I changed into my pajamas, and got into bed. Johann drifted into my mind. I was thinking about how idiotic he had been, and now how nice he is being. I wondered what had gotten into him. |
