She could only hear the crackling of the stalks she had stepped on. Pretty silent... it might drive her mad. "Oh now... Wish i could see someone else in her." She got hold of her robe and looked around. She might just run in order to find her way out. She should have waited for Livvy to decide and now she's alone. She stopped when she felt something moving a few meters away from her. It wasn't really dark ahead but she couldn't see a thing. She closed her eyes and decided to just feel the vibrations on where she would go.

She was startled when she heard a shout coming near her. eeeyyyYY!!! it was just an echo. But again she heard another one and she started walking towards the place where she had heard it. "Hello?" she asked in return hoping the one who shouted will answer.

Did she just heard someone saying Hello? So she wasn't hallucinating?! "Follow my voice!" she shouted at the direction where she had seen something black rush by. Lyra didn't dare to move from her spot. What if she had been seen and hearing things and she would walk towards the black robe, getting lost again? Nuhuh Lyra was not going to do that.
So instead she started to sing a melody in a horrible voice. "LALALALAAAAAALALALAAA CAN YOU HEAR ME?" duh, if Lyra sang the whole castle had to close up.....

She stopped for a few seconds trying to catch her breath and looked at Adrienne with a raised eyebrow and grinned at her, knowing that she must have sound terrible. Lyra shouted again at the direction where she had heard a girls voice hoping she would walk towards her singing and had not ran away from it.

Follow... Follow... Via thought desperately. She really needed company inside that maze. "Okay... follow the voice," she told herself. Just when the vopice started singing. "That is a great help," Vivianne muttered. She could have laughed because of it but knew it was no time for laughing. She took a few steps until the path ahead was starting to brighten. She continued to follow the voice.. well horrible it could be, Vivianne needed it. Then the voice stopped and Vivianne continued walking. She started to gather up speed until she met two girl standing in the middle of the maze. "Lyra..." she said relieved to see her. "I heard someone singing and i followed it..." she told the girl.

Eeeep! She was soooo pretty when she smiled. Sometimes he just fell apart when he didn't mean to with Evee. And the kitten was just too cute. "Wasn't it just." He continued with another smile.

About to open his mouth to ask for her help with a certain.. Project of his, Ashton nearly melted into a (attractive) puddle of mush when her adorable little ball of fur basically threw itself at him. Bending down whilst making noises that would of probably sounded alright to the kitten and if he was on his own, he curled his hands around the sweet little thing, and lifted it up. "You're soooo cute." He told the cat, grinning at it. Suddenly lifting his eyes to Evolette, he asked, "Uhum, Evolette... You don't happen to want to give me a little bit of a hand with some..." Ooh... What was the best word for it..?

"Mischievous drama?"

"Mischievous drama?" Evolette repeated, lifting her eyes to look at the boy once more. Evolette McKenna was always down for mischievous drama, there was just one tiny problem now.

The badge that was currently pinned to her robes.

HMMMM..

"That depends... on what exactly this drama entails." she replied.

The sound of her own scrawling quill on the parchment pages of the leather-bound journal her father had given her was all that Mariel in her own little world could hear as she walked through the Hogwarts grounds, head bent over said journal. So intently focused on her writing was she that the Ravenclaw girl had lost focus of her surroundings until she heard a loud, somewhat confused voice and a cry for help. All at once, the fifteen year old stopped, looked up, and tried to accustom herself to her surroundings. What's up with all the corn? she thought as she turned around slowly to see that she was surrounded by the towering plants.

And that voice... Though she could hear several voices coming from within the seemingly endless rows of maize, the one that had caught her attention seemed so familiar. Quickly shoving her quill and journal back into her inside robe pocket, she called out in a rather loud voice, "Sarah? Is that you?" With some futility, she tried to stand on her toes to try to see someone, anyone, but all she could see was maize. Is this a maze? she thought to herself as she started to creep along what seemed like walls. Then she spun back around in sudden realization. She hadn't been paying any kind of attention when she came in here, how was she going to get out?

"Mmhmm." Ashton intoned, though his eyes had gone back down to the grey furball that was currently covering his shiny new robes in hair. Hopefully his new room-mate wasn't allergic to cats or something... 'Cause that'd just be like... Awful.

When Evolette spoke again, Ashton could of smacked himself in the head. She was meant to be being good this year, what with being an example for the lickle first year students. "Well, you know you're awfully good at distracting guys, right?" He began, suddenly feeling the urge to lower his voice a bit, "I know these three girls, right, and they've each got a boyfriend, but I thought it's be rather amusing," Looking up from her to check that one of them wasn't standing over him with a beaters bat positioned toward his head, "if I got a kiss from each of them before the term ends..?" He wiggled his eyebrows quickly and briefly, "What d'you reckon? Wanna help?"

Evolette grinned as the sheer lovelyness of his words sunk in. "Yes, well... distracting boys IS what I do best you know." she dragged her eyes up and down and smirked, "But then again, you knew that already." Wink.

"Just because I am Head Girl, doesn't mean that I can't flirt with a couple of boys." she added, twisting a strand of dark, shiny hair around her finger, "Who would these boys be?" she asked.

Muffin mewed. Why was Evolette getting more attention than he was? HE was cuter! Kittens were cuter than girls ANY DAY. Hmpf. Pawing at the boys face, Muffin reached up to his shoulder and took a sniff of his hair. He smelled like cats already. Muffin could tell, which meant he had a cat of his own. Which meant, he knew how to scratch that certain spot behind the ears juuuuuuuuuuuuuust right.

Which meant, this boy was Muffin approved.

And he got a nuzzle.

The grin that started from the corner of his lips was back. It slowly consumed his face, making him suddenly feel much more elated about being inside of the huge, big, silly maize maze. Which that made him feel better just about being him. "And I'm sure you get better at it every day." He replied, the grin curving into a smirk that he wore SO well.

"I'd hoped you'd see it that way," Now.. Ohdear. Names. Rushing through conversations in his head whilst absent-mindedly rubbing the cute-ness in his arms on the back of the head, Ashton EVENTUALLY came up with the three names, "Well, one in particular will be darn easy for you to get a hold of.. That is.. if he's still going out with her.." Mmhmm, that might fail a bit, "Chris Potter.. He's the Gryffindor prefect.. I THINK. Then the next one is Jack Friz.." Oh, why did people have to have such difficult last names, "Frizer.. Fritzar.. Ohh, the Quidditch captain for the Gryffies, and then the last guy isss.... Stephen..." Oh golly ANOTHER difficult last name.. "Tamesis.."

Nodding firmly, his attention went straight back to the kitten. Omigod. Did... Did he just get a nuzzle?! Moving his fingers, he rubbed underneath the kitten's... Armpits..? Did kittens have armpits? Weeelll, that area anyway. And then moved his fingers up to behind it's ears... "Is it a boy or a girl?" He asked suddenly, glancing back up to Evolette.

Reaching up, Evolette curled her fingers around the collar of his robes, and pulled it back down, after Muffin had squirmed about and pushed it up. "You're right about that." she replied, patting his shoulder, before dropping her hand again.

OOH. "I know Jack." she replied, smirking. YEP. She knew Jack Fritzera. "He's a little scared of me." she placed a hand over her heart, a little sad, hurt look on her face, and her pink lips turning down. "Scared of little old me? Can you believe it?" Sniffle.

"The other two, won't be as easy, however, they wont be hard either." If there was one thing that Evolette McKenna knew, it was how to wrap a boy around her finger, and then have him say thank you very much.

"A boy." She replied, "His name is Muffin." She wondered if he would make a comment on his name, like everyone else did. Muffin was a good name. SHE liked it. So there.

MAZEMAZEMAZEMAZE.

Oooh, this looked like so much fun. He started to dart between the stalks and try as hard as he could to not swish his cape and make superhero noises. He tried to find anyone he knew, and then it dawned on him.

"SUPERMAN!" he yelled, swishing his cape towards Torin. Except... he looked disgusted. Whaaa--? Then he noticed Reese. "What's going on?"

It was craazzeh. Here she had been hoping for some distractions, and wondering what could possibly help her get rid of the thoughts of the summer. And there the answer stood quite clearly. Friends. Livvy would spend more time with other friends so then it wouldn't make her think about Rachel. Though it's not like she was going to 'use' Via. Livvy actually wanted to spend time with the girl. She hadn't seen the girl for ages and she was truly happy to see her again.

"Well....." Livvy started, but she honestly didn't know why she had thought the girl had transferred. "I dunno," she said, truthfully, grinning cheekily as she scratched her head. And then she stared at the girl. Sister? SISTER?! "Youu.... have.... a... sister?..." she questioned, with wide eyes. Showed how much she knew about her friends.

Her attention was then drawn to... diets? Livvy just snorted and shook her head. "Via. Honey. You don't need no diet. You're skinny as a stick!" she said, truthfully. Though... honestly. Her opinion really didn't matter since dieting and fatness never quite appealed to her interests. So she really shouldn't be giving out this sort of advice. Since she wouldn't really know anything about it.

Livvy laughed and shook her head. "We're geetttiiin' oooolld," she said, in her grandma voice and walked forward as if she had a cane in her hand. Hehe.

Pfft. "Do I wanna do the maze? Did you just ask me if I wanna do the maze?" Livvy asked in mock sternness, placing her hands on her hips and tapped her right foot gently on the ground. A smile broke out on her face once more and she yelled out, "Of COOUUURSSE I wanna do the maze! Nothing better than getting lost! LET'S GOOOOO!" And with that, Livvy grabbed the girl's hand and pulled her along and into the maze.

Theo hadn't really been outside since he had got to Hogwarts. Which was rather odd. But it would be nice to get some fresh air. He had walked out to the grounds and discovered a giant field of what looked like wheat. He smiled and stood by the entrance. At a closer look it was a maze. He could really get lost in it.

Instead of entering he just stared at the entrance, in awe of the thing.

And suddenly his hero arrived.

"Xanderman!" he called out feeling relief sweep over him. Finally his superhero was here to save him from the evil girl pawing at him.

He quickly ran around Xander and used him as a shield from Reese again. "She kissed me!"

Matheu approached the large corn maze. A lot of people were gathered around, just standing there looking at it. Why? He didn't know. He didn't care. He just needed to eat up time or he would be found swimming in the Lake, which might be against school rules.
Matheu entered the maze with confidence. The angles and turns were very interesting. Sometimes he came across small posts written in different scripts. Matheu could only make out some of the characters, like an "H" or a "P." Others were just mysterious to him. No doubt they held valuable information. Like how to find the exit.

Earlier in the day, LouAnn had peered outside a window up in the Gryffindor Tower, only to see a mysterious maze of corn out on the grounds of Hogwarts. She wondered how long it had been there, but with her being so new to the school, there was really no way to tell for sure. All she knew was that the maze looked interesting, and she wanted to try it out and see just how long it'd take her to get lost inside. She was pretty confident that she'd eventually figure it all out, but for now, she was pretty much going in expecting herself to get lost.

When she reached the corn stalk walls of the maze, she pushed a few pieces of stalk to the side and stepped inside. Apparently, she wasn't the only student who'd gained an interest in the maze, for literally half of Hogwarts seemed to be there. She walked a little further until she came upon a group of people, most of whom, of course, she didn't know. As a matter of fact, did she actually know anyone in here at all? Probably not. Saying she knew a few people would be stretching things a bit. "Hey, I'm LouAnn," she greeted. "Pretty cool maze, huh? How long's it been here?"

Fia hobbled her way down to the grounds. This was bad! She couldn't go to the nurse, not yet. She would get into trouble but she had to get out and about. It was only a spranged ankle, so she thought. If it wasn't, she wouldn't be ableto walk on it.

As she made her way out to the grounds, she saw something strange, something different. And then she saw someone staring at it just as she would be doing. She made her way down and stood next to Theo.

"Fancy seeing you here," she smiled, biting her lower lip and putting her hands together in front of her. She then gently leaned into the rather cute Slytherin boy she had a crush on and pushed him slightly with her shoulder.

Brody was usually good at directions. She lived in a huge house so she kind of needed to be. But for like the millionth time today she'd gotten lost today and now she was standing and looking at some corn things.
"Whhaat?" She giggled. Why was this here? Surely they didnt grow there own food? Oh really.
But people were walking in it. Hmm. Brody pushed through a few of the corn, and walked through them, although she still had no idea where she was going, and ended up bumping into some girl.

"umph." She rolled her eyes, holding onto the girl so that she wouldn't fall over. Why was this girl just stood still? She totally wasn't too blame. She was too pretty to be in the wrong.
"Erm..Hey"

No sooner had LouAnn gotten her question out of her mouth, she felt a hard blow to her back. She stumbled forward and would've fallen over had it not been for someone grabbing onto her, no doubt holding themselves steady, as well. "Oww," she mumbled, turning herself around so that she properly see who it was that'd walked right into her. The girl standing before her looked pretty familiar, but then again, LouAnn had met so many people in Diagon Alley and on the train that'd it been hard to remember them all.

"Oh, hey. Sorry about that," LouAnn said, even though the run in hadn't been her fault at all. Hadn't it been this other girl who'd run into her? Oh, well. Apologizing was the nice thing to do, either way. "I'm LouAnn Purple. You look familiar. Did we meet in Diagon Alley or something?" As she talked, LouAnn rubbed her shoulder a little. It sort of hurt from when the girl had walked right into it.

Theo was looking at the corny maze. It was amazing. How did that Neo man grow it so quickly. He had heard about ones that muggles did. They were in the paper. He was about to enter the maze, when a voice called from behind him. He smiled as he recognised the voice. He felt her lean againt him. It was a good job he was bigger now. Otherwise he would've had to have leant on her. "I haven't be outside in a while," he replied, "What you doing out here then?" It was a reasonable question. He didn't know whether he could put an arm around her, to hold her steady. He didn't think his shoulder would be strong enough.

O_____O

AGAIN?! Reese was chasing him again!? When was this stupid potion going to wear off or whatever? Apparently, not soon enough.

"What is WITH you, woman?" he asked, blocking Torin from Reese. He lowered his voice so only Torin could hear. "On the count of three, we're running through the maze. One..."

He shifted slightly to get into a better running position. "Two..." Fixing his robes into more of a cape, he smirked. "Three. RUUUUUUUUUUUN!"

He pushed off and ran past Reese through the maze. He ran into a wall or two on the way, but still. It would be really bad if they ended up in a dead end.

He continued to cower behind Xander as she whispered his escape plan. Seemed pretty good to him. He nodded slowly at the boy even though he knew that he wouldn't be able to see it.

Then he waited for the signal.

When Xander yelled to run, he took after the boy like there was no tomorrow, rushing through the corn and feeling it whip past him. "WHEEE!!"

He couldn't help but have fun after escaping from Reese. hehe.

Fia grinned widely. Theo was a cute boy and with that thought, she bit her lower lip again. "Ohhh, I thought about having some fresh air," she said but really she was looking around for him. "I...err...wondered if I would see you out here.". She grinned again hoping she didn't look too sappy at liking him, but she did.

She didn't move for fear of beginning her hobbling mo
ents once more. She saw two girls enter the maze and then looked back at Theo. "This looks really cool. Wanna go inside?". Go inside and get lost and have fun and chat?

"Erm....Maybe?" Brody smiled at the girl, feeling a little bad for bumping in her, although she wasn't going to admit that it had been her fault. That would be the last thing that she was going to do. "I'm Brody Summers." She nodded with a smile, she did kind of remember this girl. The girl with the wierd name. Yes she remembered her.
"Is your shoulder okay? She asked, a little worried. She hoped that she hadn't hurt her.

"This thing." It was a thing right? "Is a little wierd isn't it?" She giggled, looking around. She was quite glad that she had found Louann. At least now she'd not get lost in here.

Xander giggled uncontrollably as he ran through the maize. This was SO MUCH FUN ZOMG.

"WHEEE!" He chimed in with a rather high pitched voice for what he was normally used to. But he was having fun, it was allowed. "We should be superheroes. Where's Missy Lulu when you need herrr?!"

He made sure his robe was flowing out behind him, because he couldn't be Xanderman without a cape. It was just like, impossible. And the word 'impossible' didn't exist in the Xanderman's dictionary. NO WAY.

Turning a corner, he tried to figure out what to do now. He looked behind him to see where Torin was, and ended up running into another wall.

"AHHH!" he yelled, falling backwards in a mess of his robes and hair and maize.
