The Headmaster has re-purposed this old classroom for an entirely different use. The room is larger than it should be; the fact that Tate reduced a wall into an adjoining room is obvious by the fact that it has two doors along the same long wall. Rather than leaving an empty office or reinventing the standard dueling area, the room now serves as a training facility for those with an interest in Defense and Defense related careers: Aurors, Hit Wizards, and the International Task Force (among others).

The two windows in the room face out over an inner courtyard and let in tree-filtered light throughout the day. Beside one such window, floor-to-ceiling bookshelves have been stuffed full of countless Defense texts. The titles range from ancient tomes in spidery indecipherable scripts to glossy hardcovers featuring some of the premiere Defensive authors of the day. The long table is conducive for transcribing notes from the various books, but there are also a few deep chairs pushed together for general reading or quiet conversation. There is a sign posted on the bookshelf.

Along the opposite wall, leading from the far door halfway to the window, Tate has set up various pieces of exercise equipment, intending for those interested in pursuing a Defensive career to develop themselves physically as well as mentally. A punching bag is suspended from the ceiling in the corner, sitting beside a stand of free weights and other odds and ends, mats and exercise balls and the like. Stretching along the remainder of the space to the window is an enormous climbing wall, complete with hand and foot holds all the way up to the ceiling. There are no ropes, but the floor is generously cushioned with a charm.

Between the two windows sit a series of padded dummies, perfect for any dueling practice needed for class or just to be used in the process of learning new spells. Drag one or two out and practice. Either of the windows onto the courtyard may be opened and, weather permitting, training can extend into this open space. Try not to kill and trees or squirrels in the process.

Hateya shuffled into the Defense Training room, still in her Viking costume from Ancient Runes class. She hadn't really expected the professor to leave so suddenly, or without changing them back, but she didn't mind too much. Either the spell would wear off eventually, or she'd just keep the costume and wear one of her other uniforms. It paid to have multiples, after all.

Still, as she looked around at the room, Hateya couldn't help but feel a grump session coming on. There were books in here, and they probably taught all kinds of Defense spells, but she had no idea how to cast them. She didn't know how to cast anything. Even other first-years seemed to know.

A few mutters left her as her eyes caught on the climbing wall and she shuffled to it. Well, at least there was nothing magic about climbing, right?

Samira couldn't believe some of the classes. She didn't understand the Arithmancy lesson at all, Transfiguration was confusing, and Shaw....well Shaw was just plain CRAZY. When Samira was in that class she seriously wondered about his mental state, and her safety. Needing to take her mind off things in a slightly secluded place, she made her way over to the DADA training room. Upon entering, she noticed that there was only one other person who was still in the stupid viking costume from Ancient Runes. Samira shuddered at the memory of looking around the class and seeing people all around with beards.

The Slytherin made her way over to the books on the shelves for some light reading. She picked a random one and perched herself on the floor. She looked at the other girl in the room and gave a friendly nod.

As Georgie wandered into the room , she glanced at Hateya and Samira. She grinned! This class was going to be fun! Suddenly she noticed the Viking costume Hateya was wearing!
' 'scuse me, sorry if I sound rude, but who are you? I'm new here, in the first year, and I'm just wondering whats with the Viking costume? Is it a Hogwarts tradition or something?' Georgie asked, a hint of suprise in her voice!

"'Scuse me, and sorry if I sound rude, but who are you? You see, its my first lesson here in this classroom, and I haven't seen you before. I'm guessing you're not in Hufflepuff! Anyway, I just wondered what was with the viking costume..... was I meant to wear one too?"

steflegan · 05-14-2011, 01:41 PM

Ohhhhh, yeah! Defense against the Dark Arts. Melina was super looking forward to this class. She had heard so many stories from her Auror father, exciting and scary ones. She also had a vendetta against Dark Wizards for what they did to put him on disability. She had a little butt to kick.

She wandered into the training room, noticing that only a few students had made it in yet. She laughed to herself when she saw the Viking girl- they must have been in the same class. Thankfully, she'd run into another professor in the corridors that changed her out of her costume.

Walking over to her fellow Norse classmate, she said, "Hi, I'm Melina! I was in Christianson's class too. I was lucky to find someone to transfigure me back. I wish I knew how to do it for you," she added with a friendly cringe.

insignia57 · 05-14-2011, 02:39 PM

Brielle stepped excitedly to the Defense Against the Dark Arts room, it wasn't her favorite class, but it was one she enjoyed more than the rest. Settling on one of the chairs, she suddenly wished she had tried to talk more to a few students the same year as she was, then maybe she could have come here with them. "Oh well," she whispered to herself, rummaging her bag instead to look for a book to read while waiting for the professor to arrive.

Sherri · 05-14-2011, 02:55 PM

Wisteria walked in to the training room, she was used to looking a bit funny when it came to stuff like this. she wasn't even five feet tall and the mere fact that she was girl... luckily for her, though, she wasn't the only one.

She had some papers she was about to put away. Her mother being muggle and all and not really having a great understanding of how things worked was very concerned with my future so since this past summer she had her looking into jobs to maybe focus on and start working towards. Wisteria didn't mind, she knew it must be difficult for her mom and at this point she realized, too, that she should probably start considering working towards potential goals.

She looked to the other side of the room a punching bag suspended from the ceiling, she went over to it and started beating the crap out of it. She really didn't know she had it in her. These must have not been used much seeing as she could see some of the dust fly off it. She kept punching in rhythm as not to over strain her joints, this was after all her first work-out.

Samira glanced up at the new arrivals. Whoah! Where did all these new people come from? And so many first years! Honestly, the place was crawling with them. She set her book down and glanced at the other girl briefly. She resisted the urge to roll her eyes. Obviously a Hufflepuff. "My name is Samira Sapphire Spinks. This isn't a lesson. It's a training room. No, I am not in Hufflepuff. I am a Slytherin. The viking costume was part of Transfiguration class, and no, you do not need one." Samira listed off all the answers without stopping, then turned back to her book.

GraceMadden · 05-14-2011, 09:18 PM

Hmmm this shouldn't be so bad, Grace thought to herself. She liked to keep fit and all but wasn't exactly an athletic person. Just average. Sighing, she plopped down on the nearest seat. She hated being new. Oh well, at least this isn't Potions.

I hope.

Ringo · 05-17-2011, 02:33 AM

Ronnie Weasley was really excited for the D.A.D.A class. She looked around and saw all her other fellow first years looking quite excited too. She knew this was going to be her favorite class.

It was just a little bit before class started, so she walked up to her fellow first year Gryffindor, Georgie Axel. "Hi, I'm Ronnie Weasley. Want to sit together?" she asked with a smile.

TeafortheSoul · 05-17-2011, 09:47 AM

They were tiny. They were ALL TINY. Why were there so many TINY PEOPLE in the Defense Training Room? Jimmy glanced around warily. Surely all most of them could do with those sticks they called wands was jab each other or point at things.

He didn't bother with his own wand, instead he headed over to the punching bags and did his best to ignore all the firsties.

Because they all kinda looked like firsties to him.

She was only coming in to have a quick look, because she had never checked out this room before. Mainly because the whole DADA thing scared the life out of her.

Poking her head around the doorway, Mia peered into the room and the first thing she noticed was a lot of first years. Really? They were all so eager to use their wands on each other?

As her eyes cast further into the room, she spotted a familiar figure standing near a punching bag. Mia hesitantly stepped inside the room and then quickly made her way over to James. "Don't you like need those glove thingies on your hands?"

Jimmy turned his head and grinned as Mia approached. Well. Well that was an improvement for sure.

"If you're a boxer sure." He shrugged at her. He was from a martial arts background. You didn't need anything. If you didn't want to wear guard pads, you didn't have to. "But I've never had time to shove gloves on before punching the crap out of someone. I usually just..." He trailed off and explained by doing: a quick one two into the bag, which snapped backwards, the support chain rattling loudly to underscore his point.

"Whats up Mia?"

"Whats up Mia?"

"Do you punch the crap out of someone often?" she asked while watching him hit the bag and she couldn't help but flinch at the loud sound it made. Now she knew why Finn had such a huge black eye after James had hit him. "I never took you for the violent type."

Mia had been sure that snogging was more his style. She tore her gaze away from the bag back to James and gave him a sheepish grin. "How do you feel about giving me some pointers? Not with that." she said, inclining her head at the bag and then pulled her wand out of her robe pocket. "Could you show me some defensive spells and moves?"

"Its a good way of letting off steam." He answered. It was an agreement. He gave her a side eyed look and added, "Especially if there aren't any pretty girls around." Grin.

He was actually mostly serious.

"I guess I have an anger problem." He shrugged.

Pointers?

He watched her pull her wand out.

"..."

That would sort of blow his cover and she'd know he' was all epic and Ravenclaw and all.

But it was Mia.

"Yeah, alright."

He pulled his own wand from the holster he wore and grinned at her. "We can't really duel, because apparently Tate has control issues." Right? hah.

"But we could use those dummies over there." He gestured at the dummies in question.

Cinn-O-Bun · 05-17-2011, 10:32 AM

Ivan walked into the defense training room in a right mood after his little argument with Lexi. He either needed to work out or he needed to beat up something or someone whichever came first.

He always lived by his, he is a lover not a fighter, motto. There was no question though that he could probably beat anyone...well except maybe James. Boy had more training than Miles' body guard...well probably not Bothari was more intimidating.

Walking straight over to the punching bag and stuff he spotted James and Mia there. Great. Just great. And James was where he wanted to be right now. Not stopping though he nudged James out of the way so he didn't hurt him with his left arm before reaching back and slamming his right hand into the punching bag and then his left watching in satisfaction as it swung.

There was the James she knew. Always thinking about the pretty girls.

Mia raised her eyebrows at him. "Really? You always appeared so laid back to me." And always lots of fun.

Duel?

Who said anything about dueling?

"Right. Dummies. I guess I can -" The rest of her sentence died on her lips when Ivan came in.

He had that look on his face again and Mia immediately backed up a few steps. She had managed to calm him down the other day but it didn't mean that she hadn't been scared. And quite frankly he looked even scarier than he did the other day.

Mia looked at Ivan, then to James and gave him a look.

"Thats because you've never done anything to brass me off, Mia." He grinned at her and poked his tongue out.

The dummies would be the best thing, he was about to head over there when Ivan showed up.

"Ooooh someone's feeling frisky." Jimmy commented in a campy voice. But really he was more concerned than he seemed on the outside. He was joking around with the intention of getting Ivan's attention, snapping him out of whatever was bugging him. The way he figured it, he'd either get irritated and lash out at Jim, which he could handle, or Ivan would, you know, talk about it or whatever.

Not that James was big on sharing feelings and whatnot, but whatever works.

Spotting Mia's nervy reaction, Jim reached out his hand, caught hers up and gave it a little squeeze before letting go.

"You wanna set up a couple of dummies, Mi? I'll be over in a bit."

Ivan punched at the bag again and again before he heard James comment and he frowned. "Shove off. Before I have a go at you too," he warned as he punched the bag more and more until his hands started hurting from the impact.

He glanced at Mia as he kept up the punching and saw the look on her face. Was she...scared of him? He stopped the bag from swinging and turned to look at her. "Mia? What's wrong?"

"Grrrrrrrr." Jimmy actually growled at Mia, waggling his eyebrows and holding his hand up in a tiger claw. Yeah thats right.

He watched Mia go over to the dummies and turned back to Ivan.

"Y'know, usually I wouldn't mind." Jim began quietly, "but I told Mia I'd help her out with a thing or two. Save the pointless anger for later and maybe I'll let you try to rearrange my face, yeah?" He smiled, not quite his usual cocky, cheeky grin, it was something else, something reserved for the people he actually gave a toss about.

He even held back from comments on technique. Ivan always got sloppy when he was angry. If he kept it up he could strain his wrists something chronic.

"So, do you want to stay angry for a bit? If you do, I'll leave you be and me and Mia will be just over there," He gestured. "Or you can let whatever it is go and chill out with us."

And they'd (groan) talk about it later.

Nothing? She just looked at him like he was about to attack her or something. And for some reason that hurt him more than anything else that had happened lately.

"It's not pointless," but he couldn't help but smirk at James offer. "But I'll take you up on that," he said jumping slightly on him and wrapping his arm around his neck in a headlock.

Letting him go he looked at Mia and sighed slightly. Why did she seem scared of him? "Oh if you're teaching her something I have to watch. Anyone got any popcorn?" he asked cheekily and wandered over to Mia.

"I'm sorry," he said quietly as he messed with the dummy thing a bit. He didn't want her scared of him. He wanted her far from it, though that wasn't going to happen...ever.

"It always is, but that doesn't mean much." Jim answered. Yeah anyone that knew him knew he got mad kind of often. Hulked out. Lost the plot. The boy had a lot of anger in him really, so he was speaking from experience.

Like a reed in the wind Jim just relaxed and went with it, laughing a bit in the headlock, relieved that Ivan was gonna chill out about whatever was bugging him. He straightened up.

"Pshh. Maybe you should pay attention too. You might just learn something." He led the way over to Mia and the dummies, absently spinning his wand in his fingertips as he did so.

Jimmy grinned at Mia. It was okay. He added a wink too.

"Ready to learn something, Mi?"

Mell · 05-17-2011, 12:24 PM

Okay so she was supposed to be doing something with the dummies but her attention was on the two guys on the other side of the room. She couldn't hear what was being said but she only hoped that James was talking some sense into Ivan.

When she spotted them heading her way, Mia hastily turned her attention back to the dummies, trying to look as though she knew what she was doing. She turned to look at Ivan and she stared at him for a moment before breaking into a smile. "It's okay. We all have our bad days." Yes even her.

"Always ready to learn something Jim." she replied cheekily and grinning back at him.

Right. She needed to be serious now. Holding her wand loosely by her side, Mia inclined her head at him. "Ready when you are Mr Wilkes."

"Yes well this is important this time. But..I'll tell you later," he said with a sigh and rubbed the back of his neck. He looked at Mia and gave her a smile as he saw hers. Good. Not scared. "Some more than other?" he said cheekily. Seemed every day was a bad day for him lately.

He rolled his eyes as he heard James and laughed, "The day I actually learn something from you that isn't illegal or likely to get us into trouble is the day I'll actually start going to classes." He smirked and stepped away from the dummy so he didn't get hit by misfire and have to be taken to the hospital wing. "What do you need to learn anyway Mia?"
