The Purple Sleeping Bag Thread

[Cassirin]

Rae hurried into the Great Hall and eyed the milling students. She hopped up on the dias and held up her hands. "Alright, students... if I could have your attention, please. I'm sure you're aware that something has occured in the Common Rooms. We're currently investigating the disruption and trying to figure out exactly what happened and what we need to do to get you back in there. For now, we'll ask that you sleep here in the Great Hall. Prefects and professors are on duty to make sure that you're safe and following the rules. Any professors who wish to assist in investigating may join me at the staff table."

She clapped her hands and a pile of plush purple sleeping bags appeared.

'Vampires? They must beDark books' Rave thought to herself. "Where did you get them Tabby?" she asked concerned. She'd have to take care of this as soon as they were aloud out of the great hall.

She grinned back and whispered " Well to tell the truth" she looked to both sides bevor she continued " it was about three trees"

[Dru]

"There were five of them. I didn't look at them but I can count," Tabby replied quickly before realising what Rave had asked him. "Oh, it was.... um...."

A part of him really didn't want to say, after all, they were beginning to be friends. Remembering how scary Rave could get, he decided it would be better if he whispered it. He got onto his knees and leaned over to her ear, semi squashing Eugene in the process, and whispered, "Transt."

Amber giggle and laughed. She was trying so hard to keep it to herself, it seemed that she was going to burst. She gave Sol a nudge with her elbow. "And Nik came to save the day, huh? He's kinda cute, for a Hufflepuff. she whispered again.

Rave gritted her teeth. She showed no outward sign of anger except for the muscle in her left cheek twitched slightly. She took a deep breath and opened her mouth, about to say something when she heard a muffled squeak. "Oh! Watch out for eugene." she said laughing slightly. She nodded to Tabby, "Dont worry about the books Tabby. Give them to me when we get back to the dorms and I'll take care of them." she said giving his shoulder a small squeeze. 'When I get ahold of that boy......'

[Nabs]

Nikolai let out a disbelieving snort when Sol revealed the true number. "She nearly burnt down the tree I was leaning on." He told Amber seriously.

"He was standing near to the tree that I set on fire and was there bc he wanted to bring me back to the castle" she nodded his way " and yes hahaha he saved my day and I hope nobody saw us"

Amber shook her head in amusement. She turned to Nik. "Thanks. Sometimes she needs looking after." she said fondly of Sol. "But next time, seriously, I want to be there!"

Sol glared at Amber "What? I'm a really nice girl and I can be on my own" she pretended to be mad. She reached out for her bag and started rummaging. Then she found some chocofrogs and offered Amber and Nik some.

Amber gladly accepted the chocolate frog. She pealed back the wrapping and looked at her wizard card. As she began to read who it was, the frog took one large leap that arched over Nik's head. She lunged to catch it, but noticed too late that she was on a crash course with the Hufflepuff. She closed her eyes as she slammed into him, knocking them both over and squashing the chocolate renegade underneath of them.

Rave seemed to be quite calm as far as Tabby was concerned. He jumped up when he realised that he was leaning on Eugene and scooped him up in his arms. "Sorry Eugene! I didn't mean to squash you really," He told his pet as he gently cuddled him.

[Drusilla Black]

Drusilla sees a Ravenclaw student stumble with a young Hufflepuff.

"Students, no running please. And I would clean up that mess if I were you," Drusilla tells them while passing them.

"I need a rest!" she decides and heads for the table to sit down.

[QuidditchChick]

I wasn't even running... she thought. Amber looks around to see if anyone had been hurt. It seemed the only casualty was a few bumps and the death of a poor chocolate frog.

The Great Hall's ceiling continued to amaze her, it was like they were sleeping outside under the stars. Smiling she looked at Zekk. Everything was so perfect. She could hear friends and other students chatting but she didnt care, she was in her own little world.

Zekk smiles, he sees a shooting star, and makes a silent wish. Wishing that this would never end and he could just lay here with Falas and never have to get up and goto class, or face whatever destroyed the common rooms. Even quidditch was far from his mind. "Its so beautiful, the ceiling I mean." He says in a low voice.

Nik looked around, and when he turned back to his companions he realized that they had fallen silent. Well, he surmised that tense situations would make anybody behave uncharacteristically. He turned over onto his stomach and watched the scene that was eerily lit with the light of floating candles. "Do you think we will have to stay here much longer?" He asked Fran and Lua, voicing something that brought a deeper meaning. What he really wanted to ask was, did they think the professors would find something in their common rooms and send them home?

Francesca rolled over on her stomach facing Nik with a look of sadness on her face. The absolute last thing she wanted was to be sent back home because of some weird thing in the school. She had already made great friends at Hogwash (ooc: lol) so she was not ready to go back home to the states unless she brought people with her.

"I hope not. I also hope that we aren't sent back home. If we are sent home, you guys are coming to spend part of the time with me because I will be driven to insanity."

She raised her eyebrow as Nik came back with Sol and he mentioned something about a bonfire to another girl who had just arrived. It was hard to tell where these people were coming from all of a sudden. She assumed they were Lua's friends.

"You had a bonfire and didn't invite me!? Bad Nik!" She said as she poked him playfully. She had to keep up her carefree attitude in order to get through this mess.

[HaefaLasweN]

Falas was getting really sleepy. She could just feel the warmth of Zekk's body against her. She kept looking at the beautiful ceiling, it was so peaceful, she couldnt believe that something horrible happened in the common rooms. "Yeah I know it is" she said sleepily. "So what are thinking about ?" she asked him, her eyes were starting to get heavy.

[MunchyBubbles]

Pt still sat in her little corner as she gazed around the room. She thought she saw some people she knew but she wasn't sure. She wondered where Shad was, and then chided herself for thinking of him. "You can't do that to youraelf Pt." She mumbled to herself as she leaned against the wall, tears silently pouring from her purple eyes.

[Zekk]

Zekk stared at the ceiling. He couldn't hear anything other than Falas breathing. He heard her say something. But he was capturing the moment. He wanted to remember this for a long time. "Huh? Oh sorry." He says. "Im just thinking about how peaceful it is here." He tells her. He lifts his head up to look at her. "Are going to fall asleep?" He asks laughing.

[Pandalicious]

Brittany loosened her sleeping bag around her. It was getting to hot and stuffy since everyone was jammed into the Great Hall. She took out her current reading book, A Beginner's Guide to Transfiguration. She was confident her work would improve with the aid of this book...

[HaefaLasweN]

Falas snuggled closer against him, her head still resting on his shoulder. "Yeah I know... And I cant believe that somebody or something out there was trashing our common rooms" she sighed. "No, I'm not falling asleep..." she said sleepily, trying hard to fight it and keep her eyes open.

[Harry Potters biggest fan]

Groaning Ryan followed in the other girls path taking out his Second Year 'Guide to Ancient Runes' began reading

[Zekk]

Zekk yawned a little, trying to hide it. He knew she was falling asleep and didn't want to show that he was getting tired too. "Well Im sure the professors will find whoever did this." He says. He believes it too, he had seen a lot at Hogwarts and so far it hadn't been closed and he hadnt been hurt. "Its ok if your tired. I mean you are still young and all." he says teasing her.

[HaefaLasweN]

Falas was a little more awake now. She had been thinking... What if they closed Hogwarts ?? She never thought of that. "I hope they wont close it though... That would be horrible" she said thinking about all her friends... and Zekk... No they just cant close Hogwarts, she said to herself, shaking her head slightly.
Falas chuckled slightly when Zekk teased her. Pulling her tongue out, she said "Fine..."
She pulled away from him and moved her sleeping bag closer towards Serena and turned her back to Zekk, pretending to be asleep. Of course, she was just playing with him.

[Zekk]

Zekk smiles. "They will never close Hogwarts." He says. Then suddenly realizing she had left his side, he scrambles over to her. "I was just teasing you." He says, as he puts an arm around her. "I know your not asleep already."
