Freya smiled as some ghost appeared in the room. 'Wait, that's the one I saw in the corridor...Myrtle.' She listened as Helios spoke, but Freya did not say anything herself. Perhaps this newcomer would enlighten them with some magnificant stories or plot development...well, one could only dare to dream, and unfortunately being sick had tied Freya up for a good few days. Not to mention her conscience had been busy elsewhere, so she did Freya no good. She reached into her bag and took out her small red book, flipping it open to a dark blank page.
'Trading secrets? Oh dear. I'm surely not going to do that. Too much of my trouble would stretch my neck out even farther.'
Luckily for Freya, she had finished with her fruit before a certain stench actually began coming off of most of the rest now. 'Bleh. Oh well, it could be worse...like if I were to actually be eating it.'

Agie eyed Lyra, but couldn't help to giggle at her attempt to be the old man. "He aged me to 200! How can we respect that?" She smirked, shaking her head.

"He needs to be taught a lesson, once and for all! And I think we should strike tonight!" Agie said, popping another strawberry in her mouth.

Ella smiled back, seeing her friend excitedly. She got what she wanted, what she wanted to see in Paris's face. "You're most welcome buddy, now..time for some party, "She giggled, "Where's my share of your b'day cake?..and.." she couldnt finish but stopped at Paris's next lines. Oh..what did she say? Did she say there's someone special in her life? or it's just me?!! But the redness on her cheeks tells the whole story. oh..wow!! She pulled her friend even closer, "Boy..how come I didnt know this?" she smiled wide, "Since when? what's his name?" questions started to flow from her.

"Oh my birthday cake was so awesome. It was purple and pink and it had like 10 tiers to it and everything. There is some left over. It was really great." She gushed. She giggled and her blush deepened. "Well I don't know I thought you knew about Xander." she told her. "Well we started dating over the summer and well we thought that he was going back to my old school and I was coming to Hogwarts, but then he showed up on the Hogwarts Express and the rest is history," She explained. She didn't want to add that Xander had liked her for two years before she even noticed him. Well not that she ignored him they just didn't travel in the same social circle when they both went to Arcane.

Miles' eyes widened as he completely forgot. He could play them now! AAAHH! "EEEEP!" He squealed, in a mannish sort of way, and rushed over to behind of the drums and sat on the stool. Miles was so happy he was shaking a little. Snort. He picked up the drumsticks that were sat neatly on one of the smaller drums, and began;

BANG BANG BANG TING BANG.

"...I need lessons." Miles, blushing, but the sticks carefully on the drum again.

She beamed as she watched Miles try playing. He actually wasn't too bad, really. He just needed to master a few concepts and learn the music. "I'll help you, like I said I would." She needed to take a break from the studying, and this would be fun.

*Gabben ran down the hall with Kyle under his arm.*
"Where is it-?!"
*He walked/ran up and down the hall three times.*
"I need a safe place for me to take Kyle!"
*After the third time a thick black wooden door came up. Gabben pulled it open and ran inside. Inside was what looked like a sitting room only it was cut in half by a glass wall. Gabben ran Kyle over to it and set Kyle down on the other side.*
"Kyle... you okay?"

Kyle's feet had changed too before he could get to the Room of Reuirement. "Sorry mate, forgot." he said in ascruffy voice not of his own. He yelled in pain as his form changed more. His insides squirmed and he could feel his he jaw lengthening. His changed form completely. Nothing looked like Kyle anymore. Not even his eyes. Kyle breathed heavily. The change was always painful, especially when he didnt take his 'medicine'. 'get away." the wolf growled at Gabben. Kyle was still inside the wolf.. for now.

As Christine ran around the corner of the seventh floor, she saw Gabben drag kyle into the room of requirement. Crap Christine thought. She didn't know if she would be able to get into the room now that someone was in it. She walked back and forth in front of the wall three times thinking I need to find Kyle with her eyes closed. After the thrid time she opened her eyes, and to her relief she saw a door. She ran to the door, yanked it open, ran into the room, and then skidded to a hault. There standing in the room was a huge beast. Christine wasn't exactly sure what it was, but she saw Kyle and Gabben enter the room, and now only Gabben and some animal where in it. Kyle was all Christine as able to say, she was so confused.

*Gabben backed away and shut a glass door blocking him from Kyle. It could only be opened from Gabbens side. Gabben fell back into a chair. It was now he was able to look around the room. His side was filled with books and a nice sitting chair. Kyles side had much the same only it looked like everything had been torn up. He looked up hearing someone.*
"Christine! Hey buddy ummm this is... my pet."
*He stood up and started to push her out of the room.*
"Lets have lunch later okay? Bye!"

A growl erupted from the wolf's throat as he saw Christine enter. He had to warn her. "Get out!" he called out in a voice not his own. Shoot. he shouldnt have done that. Cause there was Gabben trying to cover him up but he had just said something. Of course it wasnt in his own voice but...

What a load of crap Christine told Gabben after he gave her the pathetic excuse of an answer. When he started pushing her toward the door, Christine got really angry and pull out her wand and pointed it at Gabben. You are not going to get rid of me that quickly she told him with lots of anger in her voice. I want to know whats going on here, and I want to know NOW!!

*Gabben pulled his own wand out and pointed it at her.*
"I can't tell you right now. What I can do is tell you to GET OUT!"
*Gabben was one of the best at wand work in his year. Second only to Kayla. He opened the door with his wand and pointed it at her again.*
"Now I will only ask you one last time, GET OUT!"

Helios turned his back to the assembled guests and wanderers, hiding the frown on his face. All that lovely food ruined. "Clean up time." The young prince commanded as he tapped the Persian rug with his wand tip.

The platters and plates, bowls and silverware shuddered and shook. The rug seemed to be...moving. Like the petals of a flower, the corners reached towards the sky, smelly food and the serving trays falling towards the open basket that swallowed them like a hungry maw.

Unfurling, the elaborate, seemingly living rug rested once more upon the floor, the Grecian Hufflepuff, taking his basket.

It was hard to hide his disappointment, but he buried it beneath a smile as he looked back towards the other students. "Keep sharp everyone. Don't trust anyone over eighteen."

As soon as Gabben pull out his wand and threatens Christine, she becomes furious. Her emotions are out of control and she starts to panic because she doesn't know whats going to happen. The books around the room start flying off the shelves and going across the room. A glass Vase next to the two of them explodes. Christine, with her wand still pointed at Gabben, knows she needs to calm down so she say Incarcerous and ropes come out her wand and tied gabben up.

"No no no!!" Kyle growled. he could feel himself losing it. Him as in Kyle was losing the grip he had on the wolf. Soon he would be completely emerged inside the wolf. No Kyle telling the wolf what to do. "Stop!" the wolf said almost unrecongnizable as Kyle's voice. He didnt know how much longer he could keep this up. Not very long he presumed. The wolf bellowed and a roar erupted. No more Kyle in there. Christine was still in his part of the room. He made a leap for her....

*Flames shot out of his wand and hit the ropes.*
"No!"
*He saw Kyle jump to Christine. Thinking fast he sent the burning ropes at Kyle and jumpped on to Christine.*
"You bloody stupid-"
*He jumpped up and pulled Christine over his shoulder. He ran to his side of the room and shut the thick glass door just in time.*
"What is your bloody problem!? Are you trying to get killed!?"

Christine got put down by Gabben on the other side of the glass from the, well whatever it was. Christine, still bombarded with the emotions of fear, shock, and anger, still didn't have control of her powers. Books were still flying across the room. Christine cast the protego around Gabben and herself so that they wouldn't get hit by book. My problem is that your lying to me and treating me like I'm some idiot. Christine yelled at him. Thats my pet Christine said while mimicking his voice. Did you think I was dumb enough to fall for that. Why is Kyle turn into some, whatever the heck he is? she said while pointing at the animal. Did you do this to him?

The ropes were burning hi. Taking his giant jaws, he tore the ropes off and shook his fur, the fire vanished and the wolf looked upto see them both safely behind the glass. a roar erupted from him again and he dived for te glass. it didnt break as he was expecting and clawed at it. Nothing happened. He snapped his teeth at it foaming coming out of his mouth. He wanted to taste the girl. She was beautifula dn her skin calle dout to him.

"In a way he is my pet, no I did not do this to him and it's not my story to tell you how or what this is."
*Gabben slowly moved her to the chair and set her down trying to help her to relax. He looked over to the glass wall seeing it wasn't going to be broken anytime soon.*
"Are you ok? Did he get you?" *Gabben asked as he looked over her for any marks.*

No I'm fine she said as she checked herself over. And thank you, you know for helping me back there. Christine jumped when Kyle slammed into the glass. I just don...... I don't understand she said while shaking her head. He turns into some huge dog, beast thing? she asked more to herself then to Gabben. Christine let out a deep breath. I guess this is why he said he wasn't scared of me. She started to chew on her lower lip, wishing that she could talk to Kyle right now. How long does this last? She didn't care what the answer was, she was going to stay here until he was back to normal.

Were the picnic and the scene with the werewolf occuring simultaneously? Time seemed fluid in this strangest of strange rooms. It was like falling down a rabbit hole. Helios was a bit simple minded to truly understand such a place, though he understood quite well that some major weirdness was going down.

Ever curious, the boy with the golden hair and sky blue eyes approached the others from behind, his arms folded over his chest. With a tilt of his head, he opend his mouth to speak, but instead decided on being quiet for now. His actions would speak if need be.

*Gabben sighed and sat down on the floor in front of her.*
"Your not going to leave are you? Fine then-"
*He turned to Kyle.*
"It's your own bloody fault you know."
*He turned back to Christine.*
"He'll be this way till morning. Most of the time him and I stay in the shack. But this place looks loads better."
*He rested on his back hands and looked around the room.*

Kayla stepped inside the room of requirement after hearing quite a lot of noise coming from inside and finding the door to the room slightly open. The sight before her however made her stop, "What in Merlin's beard is going on in here, I could you hear you from outside?" Her eyes swept over the glass and what was behind it. "Is that...a werewolf?" she asked, unable to fully comprehend what she was seeing.

*Gabben saw Kayla walk in and jumpped to his feet.*
"Ummm... yes it is. I'm, I mean we are doing a paper for COMC and I thought if I came to the room I could look at one... safely."
*He gave Christine a look then walked over to Kayla.*
"Sorry, didn't mean to make such a noise... it's just... really really cool."
*He moved his foot to shut the door, making the door in the hall go away.*
