Luna shook her head "Well if it isnt likely to spread around the school then what is the harm in telling me? I told you something that is very incriminating." she said, a slight tone of accusation in her voice. "If it is incriminating or not it is still really the same." she said not completely certain she understood what she was saying but it all sounded convincing as she spoke confidently.

Neva rolls her eyes. Granted, the girl did have a point. But she hadn't intended on telling anybody about that night. Telling Professor Maline ahd been forced upon her, albeit voluntarily. She had always held the Professor in high esteem and felt that she held genuine sincerity and concern for her. She didn't feel that from Luna. All she felt from her was a morbid curiousity.

She saw Neva roll her eyes and Luna was dissapointed but quickly a fury grew inside of her, replacing the dissapointment with a voice that bellowed out through her mind.

She doesnt trust you
Luna's eyes narrowed
You trusted her
Luna's hand twitched over her wand
Kill her!!

Luna grabbed hold of her wand and moved to whip it out of her pocket but at the same time she made a movement to stop herself, the un cordinated movement toppled her over and she fell to the floor with a smack.

It didnt take her long to be back on her feet though, she had survived much worse falls.
"So why won't you tell me?" she asked calmly as if she hadnt just fallen over in the midle of a conversation.

Neva props herself up on her elbows, looking shocked as Luna appears so be fighting something deep within her. She falls to the floor with a heavy smack, causing Neva to flinch slightly. She makes to stand up, to aide her when she stands up on her own and speaks again as though nothing had happened. She cocks her head as she speaks, not entirely sure what was happening to the girl. " I think the more valid question is, what's wrong with you?" she asks simply before returning to her foetal position.

Luna let a small grin flash across her face. Her home territory. Her problems.
"Well there is a lot wrong with me, always has been, always will. Sure it is a more valid question but a more interesting question is what is wrong with you?" Her voice was ever so slightly happier than the moment before, it was subtle enough for Luna to pick it up and it made her even more happy, in her strange way.

Reaching over to her curtain, Neva pulls it around her bed to block Luna's view. She found her happiness oddly offensive, as though nobody had the right to be happy whilst she suffered so blatantly.

If Luna hadn't been so suddenly in the so happy mood she would have exploded but she simply tugged at one of the millions of knots in her hair and smiled.
She called over to Neva through the curtain. "Don't worry Neva, I shall find out one way or another." she said cheerfully with a tiny hint of threat and malice in her voice. She sat down on her bed pleasantly looking at the curtain that hid Neva.

Neva sighs, slightly disconcerted by Luna's rebuttal. How could she find out? Only Ophelia and Julian himself knew. What did she plan to do? She closes her eyes for a moment before reopening them and taking the edge of her bed clothes. She pulls her bedclothes down slightly and slips her legs into them, pulling them up and over her head.

Luna listened in carefuly to Neva but there was not a word from her. So quietly she left the dormitory thinking about how to get the information from Neva. She didnt really care about it but she was curious as to why it was such a secret.

Nemia walked into her dormitory and collasped onto her bed. She then examined the pillow to which her face was planted, she saw a note. Mystified, she read the note and raised an eyebrow.

In the middle of the row of beds, there is a freshly vacated spare. Neva's belongings, her vast array of books, clothes and such have been removed and sent back to her home. Her bed is freshly made, ready for a new student to fill it as she shall not be returning to Hogwarts.

Rachel walked up to the Dormitory. Everyone was at the party so it was safe. She strode over to a wall on the far side of the room. She touched a stone that had the power kanji on it. "Watashi wa Hirohito-sama ga daisuki desu." The stone disappeared and so did a part of the wall that was big enough for her to go through. As she walked through the wall closed up behind her.

Coa pulled back the curtains of her bed just in time to see Rachel, an older girl slip into the wall. She raised an eyebrow and hopped off of her bed, leaving Felix, Murphy and Cassie to play with each other.

She pressed her ear against the wall and listened. Nothing. Frowning slightly, she repeated the words that Rachel had recited.

"Watashi...er...wa Hirohito-sama ga daisuki....desu?" Nothing happened. Cora scowled and then began closely examining the picture.

Though she was deep under the Dormitory, Rachel heard someone trying to get in. She looked up. There was a bit of floor then a 50 foot drop. No, she doubted that anyone would be stupid enough to get in. She turned to the Emperor's portrait and bowed. "Hirohito-sama, genki desu ka?" The portrait of her beloved Emperor in his youth turned to her and smiled. "Hai, genki desu." She nodded. Then she went to get what she had come for. It was a large room that held weapons, gold, kimonos, old maps used in the Black War, books in Japanese, a fireplace, and her old battle kimonos. She went to the fireplace and threw in some black powder, that was different from Floo Powder. "Sasaki Sadako-san, kite kudasai." At first nothing, then the fireplace lite up and the flame turned blue. The ghost of Sadako Sasaki came through the fireplace. She straightened up and smiled. "It's been a long time hasn't it. What do you need?" Rachel smiled at her friend, "Remember the necklace I asked you to make last time? I want you to make another one, but I want it to be of the hope kanji. Can you do that?" Sadako nodded her head and put her hands together. A bright white light shinned and there was a necklace with the hope kanji on it. "Thanks. I've got to go. Bye." Rachel waved good-bye as Sadako went back. Rachel put the necklace in her pocket and she said good-bye to the Emperor. She jumped up and landed back on the landing 50 feet above where she was and she walked to the stone wall. She put her hand on it and said, "Namae wa Watanabe Mariko desu."

Cora frowned as she pressed her ear hard against the stone. She could hear random muttering but nothing very clear. Scowling, and being the nosy git that she was, she barged against the wall.

"OW!" She cursed, rubbing her shoulder. "That was stupid..." She cursed again and then gathered up Felix, Murphy and Cassie and stalked off down the stairs and back to the common room.

Rachel heard a bump and stopped. She heard some talking and someone left the Dormitory. She let the wall open and walked through and it closed behind her. She went down stairs hoping that the person hadn't gone to tell anyone.

Shauna ran up to the girls dormitory. She grabbed a small ball of fluff that looked like it was... moving? She smiled to herself, "Hello, Humphrey." She wrapped him up in a silk green handkerchief and carefully stuffed him into her gray hoodie.

Rachel walked opened the dormitory door and walked in. She closed it behind her and walked to her bed. She put her bag down and smiled when she looked at the Emperor's portrait. She didn't bother to change out of her school uniform, she just took of her shoes, pulled the curtains shut, and went under the covers of her bed.

Nemia gazed at the note and her mouth dropped open.

Quote:

We need to talk immeadately. They're on to us.

Nemia then rushed out of the dormitory.

Noelle stumbled into the dormitory,still dazed.Sighing,she quickly walked into the bathroom,turning on the faucets and splashing her face with cold water.
Then,she walked back to her bed and opened her trunk.Pulling off her dirty clothes,she pulled on a pair of dark jeans and a dark blue t-shirt.She quickly combed her hair over her shoulder and then ran out.Glancing at herself briefly in the mirror.

Rachel opened her eyes slowly. She didn't feel like getting up. She was still tired physically, and she realized that it wasn't from lack of sleep. She sat up in bed and put her head in her hands. Her head hurt a lot. She decided to try to get up, but when she tried to stand up she fell back,it took too much energy, so she just stayed where she was. Just forget it, you're too exhausted to get up. She went back to sleep.

Nemia walked into the dormitory, but she was unsuccessful in finding the writer of the letter. Counting this last letter, she had gotten 2 letters, and it was about time to find out who or what was blackmailing her, her family, and... him. Nemia sat down on her bed and took a deep breath. Then she gave a sigh, and began to get ready for bed.

Rachel opened her eyes and slowly sat up. She was feeling a lot better. She put her hands over her eyes and sighed deeply. She got out of bed, grabbed clothes to change into and went to the bathroom. She took a shower and got dressed. She grabbed her school bag and left the dormitory.

Nemia was awoken by the sound of the other girls getting ready to leave for classes. Nemia knew she was going to be late, but she just turned over onto her stomach and then put her pillow ontop of her head and fell back to sleep.

Willow ran into the dormitory and screamed, "Why is this place so dull?!" Then ran straight back out, back into the common room.
