From her seat now a considerable distance away from the weirdo Karsten kid, Sierra simply rolled her eyes. She was ignoring him--yes, she most certainly was! The Head Snake, Lafay herself, had arrived, and Sierra knew better than to have words with another student while their Head of House was around.

The corners of her lips turned up into the smallest of smiles when Karsten confirmed that he was a seventh year. She nodded when he asked if she was a first year. "Mmhmm," she proudly answered, "I am a first year. Was, really. I guess you could say I'm a second year now." And you, Karsten--you are graduated! Out of here! Over and done with!

Again, she rolled her eyes when he said the Ministry of Magic was a conspiracy. Really, what did this boy know about the Ministry?! She did perk up a little, though, when he mentioned Magizoology. "Oh? Well, ...that seems exciting," she commented, nodding a few times as she spoke. Poor animals... Hopefully he wouldn't throw their food at them and attack them with water on a daily basis. Or better yet, maybe he would--and maybe they'd attack, too!!!



Sierra was about to give Karsten a piece of her mind--again--when a box was suddenly placed in front of her. Thinking that the mail was arriving, she starting to glance upward, looking to see if she might have any more mail, when a voice from behind her stopped her. Oh--it was him, and he'd brought her a gift in front of all of Slytherin house.

Lovely.

"Ohh, erm, okay," she answered, taking a quick glance around to make sure no one was looking. At only twelve-years-old, these sorts of things still had the tendency to embarrass her a little. Not that she'd ever let on to that or admit it to anyone. No, she'd appear cool, calm, and collected to everyone--yes, she would.

Tiffany and Co.--hmm. That wasn't in Diagon Alley, she didn't believe. So where was it? That was beside the point, though. Opening the gift, she pulled out two clasps and studied them carefully before saying anything to Michael. She watched the dragons and snakes move around. The clasps were pretty cool, this she had to admit. Placing them back into the box, she turned to Michael. She could be nice to Hufflepuffs--sometimes.

"Thank you," she said, her voice barely above a whisper. She couldn't let too many people see and hear this exchange! It would totally make her out to be a softie! Putting them away in a pocket of her robes, she added, "You did good. Cool designs, too." She may have even given him a tiny smile of appreciation, too.



The sound of her name quickly drew her attention away from Michael and the gifts he'd just given her. Lafay had heard her comment to Karsten?! Oops! She'd intended to have that conversation over and done with by the time her Head of House arrived. Her mouth opened, wanting to spew out everything about the meat and the water and--well, everything!

She was no tattletale, though. She didn't want to seem like she was whining either. No, she'd just wait until she and Karsten were on the train--then she'd strike! Fangs and all! ...but then, she respected her Head of House, and she didn't want to think about what Lafay or her father would do if they ever found out she'd disobeyed her professor and gone after the boy anyway.

"Yes, Professor," she answered, although she did give Karsten a slight glare as she said that. "Oh, Professor Lafay," she said, turning her attention back to her Head of House, "I've been meaning to stop by the staff table and tell you goodbye before the train comes around. Hope your summer goes well."

" Good, both invites will be coming by oels" Rex told Cass." I forgot the colors of the dresses for the girls" Rex said to Cass.The men will have some color of their houses on their tuxedos" Rex explained to Cass.

Taking a break from the crowd at the Gryffindor table, Josh made his way towards the green one in the hall playing with his loosely tied scarlet and gold tie. Now, that gave him one more good idea about the summer break in addition to visiting the beach; he was going to be able to get rid of this school uniform. That was another good thing but none of those good opinions about summer including it being his favourite season were enough to dominate the unpleasant feeling of uncertanity of if he was going to able to see the pretty she-snake.

Once he was there, the Gryffindor stopped at a point where he could see everyone sitting at the Slytherin table she-snakes and he-snakes and a big she-snake. Lafay here? Donovan never bothered to visit them though the house cup she cared about a lot was theirs now. Whatever. Moving his gaze on the table, passing Lafay and a pink haired Marie, his dark brown eyes stopped on Evelyn who seemed to be happy. Her smile made him smile.

''HELLO SNAKES!'' he adressed them all as his eyes were still on his love yet then he looked at them in general. Ah, Poisonous Princess Sierra there. Hahaha. ''I KNOW YOU ALL HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS MOMENT. I HAVE COME TO HONOUR YOUR TABLE. THAT'S GOOD NEWS FOR YOU. HOWEVER I WON'T BE DEALING WITH ANY OF YOU EXCEPT ONE AND THAT'S THE BAD NEWS FOR YOU. ENJOY BOTH AND HAVE FUN!'' Bahahahahaha!

Then saluting them all, he cooly walked to where the love was sitting...close to Ms. Pinkness and Lafay was nearby but eh who said he cared about that? No one could dare to say such a thing. ''Rose...'' he whispered in her ear hugging her from her back. ''...care to save some space for me?'' Yeah just make someone sitting next to you vanish. It should not be so hard.

He got a smile that was great," If want to see somthing cool watch this " Taking his finger and poking the 2nd clasp, he quickly pull his hand back,to show her the two needle pricks on his finger "That one is for your Quditch robes" sucking on his finger "they are mean lil things " looking to see if he had stoped bleeding yet,wich he had " I have been trying to give them to ... well lets just say it was suppose to be in Feb. Then I kind of made you mad so that was not a good time.Then I kind of got side tracked with the whole dad vs school thing,then you just seemed to try and avoid me,But I bought them for you and you should have them.I dont know when you will get a chance to wear the fancy one. when you do all you have to do is stroke the dragons and they will rerease the staff,,,,Well that is what I was told.I sort of have this witch that did the charm on it >So any questions and I can give you her name " Seeing that her attention was still bouncing back and forth between the potions mistress and the new garbage man " so I just wanted to say it has been a great year and I was real glad I got to meet you, and if I asked your dad do you think he wouls let you go to a muggle movie or somthing over the summer..." Turning a very light shade of pink brushing at some sort of microscopic dust on his left arm then looking to see if any of the outher snakes so much as had a smirk on ther face.note to self dont ask girls on a date in front of 80+ snakes and there head of house

blarblarblarblarrrrr
 

Cam smirked when returning his gaze to this Sierra Nevada girl.

And why was she smiling right after he mentioned his seventh year status?! OH RIGHT. He was graduating. Probably a congratulatory smile, am I right?

She was an ickle first year though. AN ICKLE ONE. Oh he could remember his first days as a first year at Hogwarts. Very traumatizing. Oh is that why this girl was so grouchy? Hogwarts could change a person. See, he was almost a normal child before his wizarding years. But he learned to embrace the insanity that came with the magic--maybe this girl EMBRACED the grouchiness that came with her magical experience!

Or maybe because she was just a girl. Girls. PFffttthhhhf. Not like he had a problem with females. Girls were pfffttthhhhf. Now the ladies were his thing. Hehe.

"Yes it is very exciting, isn't it?" OH THE MAGIZOOLOGY ADVENTURE AWAITS!

But then he turned to this boy. Could have been only a year older than her or so. What the.... WHAT THE?! He just stared. Stared and stared as the kid presented her with an array of gifts. You know, he wanted gifts too. HE NEVER GOT GIFTS. And this silly little Slytherin girl got one... AND HE DIDN'T?! He tried not to be jealous and a continuous victim of teen angst--BUT REALLY?!!!!!!!! Hmph. Young love. Young, creepy, tween love. And oh look more surprises. And oh look it was all shiny. AND OH LOOK--

Sierra Greingoth was just asked out.

He snorted. Not a small snort. A loud snort. Hehehehe. Though if Cameron was presented with EXPENSIVE gifts and gifts... well he would say yes. As long as they kept giving, of course. BUT WOULD SHE?!

He turned to the Potions Professor, soon awestruck by her pretteh face. They always had pretty professors here at Hogwarts. And how nice of Professor Lafay to COMPLIMENT him. He didn't blame her. He got up, blessed to see her presence. After she finished disciplining her students, Cam quickly took first evasive action and then offered her the sock. Yes. The sock. "I'm Cameron Karsten, professor. As an end of the term present, I present you with this sock. This heavenly sock of beaaaauty. Tis mine. But it's clean, I assure you," that he wasn't certain but it was a sock nonetheless. Why did he just do that? A random act of kindness of course. And you know, you always had to kiss up to a professor whenever they were around. Always.

Hmmmm... the kid was acting weird...

"Yes, well..." she said looking around. "you as well."

"Do you think I am a house elf? Who is craving for clothes? Think again child, and put away that sock." She said.

Hecate came summoned her beater's bat, Lucille, in her hands. She banged it against the table to get everyone's attention. "Students, I would first like to wish the seventh years at this table goodbye, and good luck in all their future endeavors as I'm sure all of you younger students do too." She said applauding.

"That being said, I would also like to congratulate you all on achieving second place in the point race this term. Slytherin has also placed first place in the Gobstones Cup and third in the Quidditch Cup. I know you all worked hard and there are a few people I would like to acknowledge on this. Miss Sierra Greingoth, with 708 is the Top earning Slytherin Student, and she is the second top point earner in the school." She began clapping her hands assuming the other students would follow. "Miss Evelyn Shepard is in second top scoring Slytherin student and with her 568 points she's fourth top point earner in the school." Hecate clapped again. "Miss Helena Hopkins is the third Slytherin top student with 421 points. Miss Destiny Shepard is fourth Slytherin top point earner with 257 points, and finally with 243 points, Master Stradivarius Salander is the fifth top point earner in the Slytherin." She applauded for them.

"I would like to also acknowledge your Slytherin house leaders. Your Head girl, Miss Trixie Malfoy," She clapped for the graduating Slytherin, "Prefect Evan Cartwright and Prefect Iris Beaumont" She clapped for them as well. "And last, but certainly not least, Captain Aaron Anderson." She clapped again.

"To all those returning next term, rest well... you will have a lot to learn when you return. Now..." she put her beater's bat on her shoulder, "Who turned Salazar's hair pink? This is the last time I will ask." She said spinning the bat on her shoulder.

She was by no means stupid, but she most definitely didn't not get the instructions that Rex had just given. So she just smiled and nodded "Oh, ok..."


WHAT IS GOING ON WITH ALL THE GRYFFINDORS TODAY??

Cass turned from her seat when she heard someone exclaiming something about hello and snakeys, and she wasn't surprised to find out that it was a Gryffindor. All of the lions seem to be going haywire today...maybe its because they won the house cup?

Oh well. She eyed the older boy suspiciously, wondering of he was really alright and that he wasn't going mental. Then she saw him move closer to a fellow snake who is way older. Ok, if a Slytherin was tolerating him...maybe he's still a little sane.

Her eyes turned away from the weird lion when she heard a loud bang on the table and saw that it was Professor Lafay with...is that a beater's bat? Was it the new head of house's new form of discipline?? She sincerely hoped not. She does not wish to feel what a bludger feels.

Then she smiled as the professor bid farewell to the older Slytherins. Ok, she was just here to congratulate the house as usual...good.

She applauded along with the other students as each name was called. She was slightly down that she wasn't able to get into the list this year...but there's always next year. She won't stop till she gets in that list.

She smiled at the people she knew who were mentioned, which was just Sierra...

Then she continued clapping for the head girl, the prefects, and of course their captain.

and finally, the year was done. She was about to stand up when Professor Lafay called their attention once more and asked again about Marie Salazar, The girl with the pink hair , and who charmed her hair.

Well it was most certainly not her.

Lafay, EVILyn, Josh, and Finn too
 

o___O

She was being yelled at? But, but she was the victim here. Why should she have to clean the damn kitchens? She didn't do anything but state the obvious. One of Lafay's snakes did this to her hair. Knowing Lafay wold make her clean the kitchens though... and probably enjoy making her do it, she decided not to argue with the woman. "I'm sorry Professor. It's just... I HATE pink."

o___O

Again with the wide eyes. She was gonna praise whoever did this to her? What the... Marie was the victim but was being threatened with cleaning the kitchens yet the person who did this to her was gonna get a 'Good Job' from their Head of House. Well this suc... Oh wait, they were gonna get punished too. Well that sounded a whole lot better. She looked around knowing whoever did it most likely wasn't going to come forward though. Heck, she knew if it was her she wouldn't want to face Lafay when she KNEW she was going to be getting in trouble.

Of course Evelyn was comfortable right there. The Slytherin table was the best place to be after all. Especially since Finn was sitting right there with her. She glanced over at him still not sure what he was thinking. He hadn't said anything since she took her hood off which was beginning to make her think that he was trying not to laugh at her. She reached over and grabbed his hand hoping with all her heart that he wasn't going to laugh at her. It was bad enough that he friends did it, she didn't want her boyfriend laughing too.

Glancing back over at Ev she noticed the girl seemed to have a look of fear on her face. Hmm, was that because Lafay was in a bad mood... again, or was it because SHE was the one that did this to her? She would be watching her friend from now on.

Oh and look, it was loud mouth himself Josh. She just rolled her eyes at his loud obnoxious voice. Really Evelyn, you should have went over to his table. Saved us all from his obnoxiousness. Eh whatever though. She would just ignore him... or try to at least.

She was just turning back to Finn when Tate started his speech. She sat there and listened to him... and then to Lafay as she gave her customary end of term speech. Not being one of her house leaders in points this time she really didn't care to listen. She was kicking herself for being such a slacker this term. But then Lafay ended her speech and once again asked who had turned her hair pink. Looking up and down the table she glared at everyone. Yes, every snake there was a suspect and until whoever did it came forward she was going to treat them all as if they had been the one to do this to her. The only one safe at this table right now was Finn... and Josh, and anyone else who wasn't in Slytherin.

Helena noticed that Caroline was more happier than anyone else around there, so a big grin started to appear on her face. But just when she was about to say something, she heard professor Lafay talking and...

... she heard her name. And the woman was clapping.

...

Helena didn't expect this.

However, she clapped for the others in the top Slytherin students and for the house leaders. They all did a great job, even though they were on the second place for the house cup. Buuut that was not important.

And then... the girl heard something else that managed to catch her attention.

Pink hair?

And... what was she doing with a beater's bat?

... it was scary.

Caroline listen to Tate's speech and then Lafay's Speech She clapped when she heard each student. And so on. Then Lafay whipped her beater bat over her shoulder and spoke about Marie's pink hair. Ohhhhh who ever done that would be in some big trouble. But it was kind of funny picturing the pink headed Marie. Hehe. But she would not have wanted to be the one done it. She held her laugh, agan. Especially with Lafay standing there.

She turned to Helena. "Way to go girl!" She give her a one armed hug. Maybe if Caroline would have taken more time to work on school and homework Slytherin would have won But Caroline did get slyther 121 points which was more than she could say for some others. Next year would be Slytherins year.

"Oh, and I will find the offending party. Fastest way is if they were careless enough to use a charm. See, if they had used a potion, finding the culprit would take hours... if not days. A charm is an easier way to make your hair change colour, however, a little Prior Incantatum." She said casting the charm around the table. "and the secret is out." She said looking around.

ooc: Whoever is nearby can have the last 3 charms they cast come out of their wand. The offending party should see their charm come out.

Cass looked around the table as those who were nearby found the spells that they had cast out in the open for everyone to see.

She looked down on her own wand and saw that the last three spells that she had cast had also revealed themselves from the wand that she had been holding.

Diminuendo, which she used to shrink her clothes; Pack, which well...packed her things; and Wingardium Leviosa, when she was playing with that apple in the common room.

Christopher wandered over to the Slytherin table, rather timidly. He wasn't sure how welcome a Gryffindor would be here, a Muggleborn at that. Though so farm every one he met in this house was very kind, and he was more than glad that they were above the stereotypes.

He wasn't quite sure why he was here, but he was. Christopher saw a familiar girl about his age and sat down by her, smiling. "Hi Cass!"

"Nothing at all?" Levi asked, lifting a brow. He too took a bite of his chocolate frog. It was his third one today and he hadn't tired of them yet. All that sugar was going to send him running into walls but that thought didn't bother him too much. He wasn't able to smuggle this sort of treat back home and he knew he would miss them. When she brought up the party, his eyes widened. A party was a little more than nothing! He grinned.

"Sure, I'll go!" he chirped. "God, I haven't been to a party in forever. Sounds awesome!"

Helena didn't say anything, because she was blushiiiiing. She looked pretty much like a raddish. But she was also happy to be in the top Slytherin students. It wasn't that bad, for her first year, right?

Uh oh.

Whoever turned the girl's hair pink, was definitely going to pay. And Lafay looked terrifying, especially with her bat. But why was she so sure that one of the Slytherins did it?

Anyway, the Prior Incantatum charm had been casted, so it revealed Orchideous, juuuust because it was nice seeing flowers, Lumos, from too much reading, even at night, and Accio, because she used it a lot lately. See? Helena didn't do anything bad.

Catching up
 

Alex turned his head towards Cass and let a grin slowly spread across his features. "It was good. No, scratch that, it was brilliant." he nodded thoughtful. "How was your year?" Come now, tell your cousin the juicy stuff. *cough* Levi *cough*



Alex was rolling his eyes at Hyun with a grin, turning to him he- was gone? Where did Hyun go? Had he gone back to Durmstrang that quickly oh wait, no there he was. Laying. On the floor.

Ignoring Hyun's muttering order he snorted and then laughed out loud. "Found something did you, HyunnyBunny?" he mocked with a smirk. That guy kept on forgetting, Alex didn't take Hyun's orders. Not a chance, especially not if it was something like this. As if Alex would ignore the fact that Hyun just embarrassed himself. SNOOORT!



He turned his head to his other side and noticed Fee there. He gave her a little smile and shrugged. "Oh you know... Just eating everything on the table." he snorted. So the poor house elfs wouldn't be sad when there were left-overs. Ahem. Right.

"What's up with you? Sad that the term is over?" he asked absently.



Alex had walked around with the crazy notion that perhaps Professor Lafay wasn't as scary as everyone had told him she was. He'd been wrong. His head of House stood there with a freaking beater's bat!

'Nuff said.

Prior Incantatum, hold on wasn't that the charm where... Yep, yep it was. He watched his wand when the last three charms he'd casted came out. Lumos, Wingardium Leviosa and Alohomora from that time he tried to break into that locked classroom. But there was no need in sharing that. None of them was remotely close to dying someone's hair pink. That's right, this time Alex wasn't responsible. Cue innocent puppy eyes.

This was seriously bad timing for Josh to be showing up with his usual entrance, but the girl couldn't help but feel extremely relieved at the same time. However, her eyes could not leave Lafay's beaters bat as the Professor spoke about the house points and such. Why did she have it with her? Did she carry that thing around EVERYWHERE nowadays? And if so...WHY?

Hearing her name quietly, her gaze finally broke and turned to the Gryffindor, or tried to at least. Teehee, a hug? For her? It was too bad she couldn't hug him back. Properly that is.

Hmm? "Of course." she muttered, scooooooting next to Destiny to open some space next to her other side. Hmm, a little squished, but she didn't care. At least she knew the two people next to her.

Careless enough to use a charm...

Wait, there was a potion to turn someone's hair pink?

Before she could even think about asking that, or thinking of mentally hitting herself for even thinking of asking that, the Slytherin girl's eyebrows raised in surprise once a few spells appeared around them from the student's wands. Those were from their wands right? Which meant...

Suddenly looking down to her arm where hers was, in it's holster where it rightfully should be, her other hand reach out to grab her wrist, trying to hold out the spells. From what she could tell however, whatever spell Lafay used worked quite fast. The magnification charm they learned in Charms class had already appeared, as well as the rather simple lumos charm, however it was the last spell that made her heart pound a little. There was no way she was going to survive Lafay's beater's bat once her color changing charm appeared.

Would it be bad if she was already making excuses on how to get out of this one? She maaay have scooted closer to Josh too.

Time warping. Cloning. Good times. FINN AND JOSH AND MARIE AND SHE SNAKES? I dunno.
 

Oh. Erm. This could not be good. "Hey Tune..." Yeah. Act Casual Carmicheal, your totally okay with sitting here at the Slytherin table. "I wanna stay here...." Why did he feel like he was two, and Neptune was his Mommy? He hadn't really told her about Him and Maire, which probably wasn't really aiding this conversation much. So....Finlay just smiled at Neptune.

Neptune wiggled her hand at him again. "I ... think... perhaps... it best you come to our table." In fact, Neptune KNEW that was best, best for everyone involved. "The Slytherins are corrupting you?" WIGGLE. COME Finny! Come with Neptune!

Finlay knew deep down that this was not going to end well. Neptune liked getting her own way, and he really didn't want to let her get her way. And....could she NOT notice Marie's pink hair? Maybe he could distract her with that. "Erm....they're not corrupting me." Actually they were teaching him that maybe he couldn't trust his house mates that much. But he was prettty sure the Eagles were much more nice. "It's nice here."

" I will be sending you an owl with your wedding invitation" Rex repeated to Cass. " I was eating when I told you and that is why you probably did not understand me." Rex said to Cass. I really am not sure about the colors of the wedding dresse and the men will have a buttoneer depicting thier house colors" Rex explained to Cass.

" Hi Alex, how are you?" Rex asked him. " You are coming to my wedding, right?" Rex asked Alex.

Finn, Lafay, Ev, Neptune, and whoever else is there
 

Marie didn't like the way Finn was staring at her hair. He had a look of shock on his face. Kinda the same look she had when she first looked in the mirror this morning. She knew it, she should have left her hood on. After what seemed like hours of silence he said her hair looked cute. "Thanks for trying to cheer me up but I know it looks horrible. You don't have to act like you like it." At least he wasn't laughing at her like her so called friends were over there. He actually cared about how she felt.

Hearing Lafay cast Prior Incantatum she watched everyone around her waiting to see what charms came out of their wands after. Not seeing many appear she was about to lose hope of the culprit being at their table. Then she seen it. A color changing charm. What shocked her the most was whose wand it came from.

EVELYN!

Feeling hurt and let down by someone she THOUGHT was her best friend she just stared for a minute. "It was you? Why? Why would you do this to me? She just couldn't believe that is was Evelyn that did it. I guess now I know why you didn't find who did it. Because you weren't really looking. All I can say right now is you better be able to fix this because for the life of me I can't get it blonde again." If the girl valued her life at all she WOULD change her hair back to blonde... NOW!

Turning away from her ex-friend over there she looked over at Finn just in time to see Neptune arrive at the table. What? She wanted Finn to go to their table? Why? Was it not enough for the girl that Marie had lost Jim to her (actually she never had him, he was always Neptune's) now she wanted to take Finn away from her too?

Looking back and forth between Finlay and Neptune she got the feeling that Neptune didn't know she was Finn's girlfriend. Well gee, it seems Finn isn't as willing to let his friends know about them as she is about letting her friends know. Not that she had any friends she cared about anymore... other than Mia and Matty, who never did anything to hurt her.

Letting go of his hand she just sat there feeling numb. Could her day get any worse? First the hair, now a boyfriend who doesn't want his friends to know about her.

Was it time for the train yet?

I try to catch up, I dooo.
 

O_O

Marie. She had just.. BROKE her cinnamon stick and THREW it at her. Destiny was planning on eating that, but now that the BROKEN pieces were on the floor, she wouldn't even think about it. Okay, she WOULD think about it and if the Great Hall wasn't flooded with people, she probably would have eaten it, too. There is a five second rule and rules are rules. She would have been fine.

Huffing, she wiped the crumbs off her robes and after giving Pink Marie a nice glare, she turned back to Rae when her niffler was mentioned. "I couldn't find him." she stated plainly, and wherever Dessi is, he was probably having much more fun then she was. Especially when Lafay showed up asking about Marie's hair.

Snorting back the laughter once the She-Snake's hood was pulled down, Destiny quickly picked up another cinnamon stick and shoved it in her mouth. If her mouth was full, she wouldn't be able to talk, which meant she couldn't get in trouble!

Or..they could still get in trouble.

Who cared that she had came in fourth for Slytherin, who was going to remember that when she was about to DIE? If Lafay didn't KILL her, Marie was sure to do so and well, Destiny would rather have Lafay do her in. Marie would be the type to sit there and watch her SUFFER.. Actually..Lafay would most likely do that too.

Eeep!

Too busy thinking about her DEATH and trying to ignore Josh and his LOUDNESS, Destiny missed Lafay waving her wand until she had, not only noticed those previous spells coming from Evelyn's wand, but her past three spells as well. There goes that levitation charm showing everyone just how lazy she is. Then the duplicating charm.. oh, hello sheep cloning charm. And..and..AND..she was SAFE! Ha! She wasn't the one that used that color changing spell on Marie! Nope, nope.

"I only told Evelyn to do it!"

Seeing that Lafey was making a lil speech to her house.Mikey grabs a seat next to Sierra, but still watching the cloak clasps he had given his friend as they stared at their new owner with unblinking Emerald eyes .So he was not paying attention except to clap when the rest of the table had When in Rome only to find Lafey's wand pointing around the group.Things that just didnt happen in Huff house.,

Mikey could feel a vibration from his wand even through his holster.With a small Magical hiccup a misty steam ejected it self to reveal, a hair charm that gave extra spring to his spikey hair,With a nouther cough the mist reveals a packing charm frome where he packed for his trip to Cancun ,with a last burst of mist it reveals a wrapping charm for a gift "Proffessor .... I am sorry I thought it was ok to visit the table. I wasnt trying any thing honest I wasnt"

The corners of Sierra's mouth lifted into a little smirk when Michael mentioned something about her being mad with him. Of course she'd been mad with him--he'd been like leech all term! He'd shown up nearly everywhere she had, and now that term was coming to a close, he was still showing up nearly everywhere she was!

Maybe she could successfully avoid him on the train...

It wasn't that she didn't like Michael, and it wasn't that she didn't appreciate his gifts, but...Sierra and Hufflepuffs went together about as well as ice cream and pickled eggs did. She just hadn't warmed herself up to the idea behind such loyalty, such friendliness, just yet.

"Thanks again for the clasps," she said as she stored both deep within her robe pockets. Her mind was still on the fact that Michael had gotten pricked by the two tiny snakes encircling the second clasp. Again, the corners of mouth lifted into a wicked looking smile.

She thought he was done now, and that he'd be off to his own house table, but no. He was thanking her for a great year. Really?! Thanking her?! How Hufflepuff can you get!? "Yes, well, it's been an experience," she said in reply. She thought she'd enjoy a nice dinner roll then, but again--no. What happened next pretty much destroyed dinner for her. "A muggle movie...," she simply said. "I think my father would say I'm too young." Or something...

Had any of the Slytherins, her own kind, heard his invitation to her?! "Umm, if you'll excuse me, Michael," she said, standing and eying a seat further down the table. "Have...a good...summer." With that, she'd headed down the table and taken a seat by some other Slytherin.



From behind her, she could still hear the Karsten kid going on about his supposed Magizoology career. She still thought he'd do well in waste management, but if a career in animals was where he thought he'd best fit, then so be it.

...and he was offering their Head of House a sock, too, a move which earned him an eye roll from Sierra. Whatever. Maybe the other half of the table had less drama.

...and less idiotic boys.



Just as she sat down, she heard her name, followed by the sound of someone clapping. She looked up to see that it was Lafay, announcing this year's top points earners from Slytherin house. She gave her professor a smile of appreciation and then clapped for the others that were named.

The other half of the table didn't have less drama, but it had more exciting drama. Apparently, some sneaky snake had dyed Marie Salazar's hair pink, and Lafay was trying to get the culprit to fess up by swinging her beater's bat about her shoulder. Sierra eyed the bat. It was called Lucille, she knew, and she'd asked to hold it at the beginning of term but had been told a flat out no. Her eyes scanned the table as she waited to see if anyone would fess up.



"Prior Incantatum," Sierra thought to herself, making a mental note of the incantation and wand movements. It was a spell to reveal the last charms cast by a wand, which was a useful little spell, she noted. Her own results were boring--two charms performed at a final and then 'Pack!', which she'd used to pack her trunk.

A house elf?!

Cam gasped. But the almighty sock!!! TO BE WASTED?! "B-bbut professor it's a special sock!" And then she summoned a Beater bat out of nowhere and his eyes widened.

O_____O

He scooted away. But he praised her need for violence in the room. What a true Slytherin Head of House! BUT STILL. What about the sock? Hmm. Did that Sierra Greingoth still want it? He honestly didn't know why he brought it to the feast. Maybe something to cry on. But she was investigating to the pink-haired girl. Loooooord that was some evil stuff. Some evil stuff that was.

Crap.

WHHHHYYYY?!?!

This was backlash. His wand started spurting out water right in his pockets.. That Aguamenti charm he just casted on that Sierra Greingoth earlier. WHYYYYYY?! He immediately took it out but still it gushed down so hard that it looked like he took a leak... WHHHHHHHHYYYY!??!

CURSE YOU SIERRA GREINGOTH :whaa: :whaa: :whaa:

His robes were dripping. And to avoid further embarrassment, he immediately went to take a seat.

And what is this too young to go see a muggle movie I bet she dont know they make them for all ages,well looks like ~I will just have to ask he father .....But befor he could ask her if she could ditch his broom at the leakey untill he got back from Mexico she had left him .... great she bailed on him with Lefay doing spell checks

... wasn't her...

... Nope... not this one.

Nope... not him either.... this was getting annoying.

Ahhh... Here we are. "Miss Shepard, a word?"



Hecate scowled at the children. It seemed Little Miss Bott was enamored with someone who seemed to like someone else... She shook her head.

Kids...

"Miss Salazar, calm down." She said with a calming tone. As she summoned a potion from her lab. "This is a potion you will need to rinse in your hair and it will return it to the right color. You cannot use it in the great hall, as it does not have the best of scents as it works." She said handing the potion to Marie.

"Now... Miss Evelyn and Miss Destiny Shepard... as you confessed to being an accomplice, step forward please... Is there anyone else who assisted you in this lovely escapade you would like to... out?" She looked over at Greingoth.

"You are fine here Master White," She said dismissively. Did he just give Greingoth jewelry?

She watched the charms come out of the girl's wand... not her.

She looked at the boy and her eyebrow rose... It's not like it was the first time she intimidated someone into wetting themselves, but she hadn't hardly looked at the boy. "I suggest you clean up your mess."

Destiny was so luck she didn't have the color spell come from her wand. Evelyn should have made HER do the spell instead! And SHE could have been the one encouraging Destiny yet...

What?

Did Destiny...really just say that? She could've been free from punishment if she kept quiet!

Hehe. Well, now the younger Slytherin girl knew that she wasn't the only one going to get into trouble with this. In fact, that...was it bad that she felt a little bit better now? Because she did.

Aaaand not anymore. Everything else just plunged back into 'black and white' mode where something was either right or wrong. No fun in between.

Or in this case, black and red, because that's all she was seeing. Herself, in in the ground...and her name was being called for a second time. Cringing slightly, and letting go of her death grip on Josh's arm, Evelyn sloooowly stood up (mostly because she was squished anyways) and crossed her arms, trying to look as small as possible. The bigger animals didn't prey on the small and weak right? In the wild that is? They always went for the bigger and meatier things.

Anyone else that assisted them? "No." she muttered quietly, glancing back to Marie. Heck, she wouldn't have let anyone else assist them even if they wanted to. Nope.

Good. Dianna thought. She smiled as she said, "I'm not leaving until I graduate."

"So what are you up to during the break?" she asked.

Of course, Josh's observant dark brown eyes did not miss the look one of the snakes shot his way. The younger she-snake just seemed to stare at him as if he was out of his right might. Hahahaha. Well...Josh was pretty used to that kind of reaction towards him. So he just smiled at the girl and winked at her playfully before moving his attention back to his love.



Eh, though he had decided not to pay attention to anyone else but Evelyn while coming there, there was another distraction for him on he table: Marie's pink hair and the eyeroll on her face which was apparently resulted by his actions. Actually the boy was not sure if the girl disliked his actions and attitude or just him in general as a whole. It'd be rather sad if she had him for it would have been nice to be in a good relationship with those people who were close to the girl he loved.

But of course there was nothing he could do about that. He neither could change his personality nor could control her thoughts so he only smiled at her way, too and turned back to Evelyn. For sure his time. No distracions.



Finally he could focus on the unique prettiness which belonged to him when he thought there was no other snake who had problems with his presence there. Well...probably most of the snakes at the table did not want him there yet that was also probably among the last things that the Gryffindor boy would be worrying about. So, there was no problem at all.

''Thank you, hun'' he said kindly with a sincere and warm smile releasing her from his grip so she could scoot towards Destiny to make room for him to sit. And once there was enough space to invade, he sat down next to her and wrapped an arm around her shoulders. Still smiling Josh was about to tell her about the thick envelope he got, which was still unopened, however when he saw the stressed expression on her face, he closed his mouth. What was wrong?

He had not been paying attention to Lafay and what she was saying since she was doing house speech and Josh was not from this house of green. Yet realising the revealed charms rose from Evelyn in a rather surprised mood, he looked at the woman then back at his she-snake. What was going on? Suspicious gaze moving around, no charms or spells escaped him because he did not have his wand with himself right now. It was in his trunk in the dormitory.

Then the lion boy understood it all when Marie started to snap at Evelyn. Oh, Ms. Pinkness was rather angry, was not she? That was natural if she did not like pink however, as Josh thought, one was supposed to know how to take a prank. Obviously it was something done for fun and there was no need to be so angry about it. Not to mention the fact that he did not like watching when his love was being snapped at. ''Marie! Just calm down. It's not the end of the world. Just a colour change.''

The boy slighly moved his gaze to hoping to see Lafay's reaction to that however instead of the woman, his gaze caught some other Ravenclaw. A female one and she was not unknown to him. Unfortunately not. Jake the Master of Idiocy's sweetheart birdie.

Ha. Not only the girl, there was also that hostile look she gave him. He was not expecting a loving look from her anyway for no one would expect such a thing from someone who had stupefied him before. But of course, there was no way he was going to mess with a girl so only giving her a fake smile, he turned to Lafay.

Yes. He stared at Lafay just in time when she called out Evelyn's name as the guilty one. That was not good at all. Not good. He quickly turned back to his she-snake to see if she was going to say anything about it but before that could happen, Josh's worries increased when the Potions Mistress told her to reveal herself, well...to her and Destiny, and had asked if there was someone else in this.

Again staring at the both she-snakes, he wanted to keep Evelyn seated as she rose on her feet as the guilty girl who performed the charm. And she had, of course, answered the woman's question with a no. What now? Was Josh going to watch her get in trouble like that? No way. He must have been petrified or something to do such a thing.

So, ''No?'' he repeated in a pretty audible voice as he stood up as well. Then he shoke his head and right fixed his eyes at Lafay ''PROFESSOR LAFAY'' he started rather loudly to make sure he had her attention ''Actually, it was all my idea. Well...of course i was not planning to do that but, you know, i couldn't help it. Marie has disturbed me for many times and i just wanted my revenge. I knew she hated pink and know that girls care a lot about their hair. So, the idea just came me. And since i cannot step neither in the Slytherin common room nor in the girls dormitory there, i asked Evelyn and Destiny to do it for me. They, of course, refused because Marie is their best friend but...well...as everyone knows i have a bit of influence on Evelyn. So, when i said that i would never talk to her if she was not going to do it, she reluctantly agreed and Destiny, being a good friend she is, did not want to leave her alone with it''

"I do not believe you Carter..." She said raising an eyebrow.

Hecate pointed her wand at the girl, Evelyn and smiled as her hair turned to solid locks of... chocolate. Not decadent dark chocolate, or milk chocolates, but bitter, unsweetened chocolate falling on her shoulders. She looked at Destiny and then smiled at Evelyn, "The only way to reverse my spell is if all of it is eaten away..." Then the hair would regrow... slowly... in one week time. She turned to Marie and smiled at her. "Revenge is a dish best served... for dessert." And with that, she turned on her heels and returned to the staff table.

ish catching up tooooo!
 

Marie still tried to get it out of her. Nope, nuh uh... She didn't do it so this wouldn't work. She crossed her arms and shook her head.

Destiny WHAT?! "You lost her? Dessi!" Her eyes shot to sadness and shock. Destiny better find her, this was ridiculous. Dessi was meaningful to Rae and she felt that Destiny would take good care of her! "Find her!"

Then there was a pandemonium with Marie, and Ev, and Josh, and Lafay? Lafay was threatening that she will find whoever turned Marie's hair pink. All of a sudden Charms were floating out of people's wands.... Rae looked down at her own to see... Charms she hadn't casted since last year....... Had it really been a year? Heh, shows how much she hated Charms, so she went to Evelyn to tell her when she saw the Charms floating from her wand.... Ev was guilty.

Hahah.

"See Marie, I told you I couldn't do Charms!"
Lafay said she would punish whoever was responsible.... She turned back to Ev to see that her hair WAS CHOCOLATE! HAHAHAHAHAHAH! Oh this couldn't be greater. And the only way to rid of it was to eat it? Rae wanted to try it...

"Let me start you off Ev," As she took a couple strands of Evelyn's hair and bit a piece off... "Eughhh! Bitter stuff." Rae even spit it out. Gross. "Good luck with that."

Kyle was walking over towards the slytherin table, a little Niffler in her hand. She had found him under the Ravenclaw table and was now starting the search to find his owner.

"Hi anyone of you know who this Niffler belongs to?" She asked smiling, the little thing was curled up in the palm of her hand.

GAHHHHHH :whaa:

"MINEEEEEEE! THAT'S MINE!" Rae stumbled out from the table reaching grabby hands at little Dessi. She was up and snatched the little niffler from the girls hands just before remembering that she probably didn't look very nice right now.. "Errr... Sorry, I mean Thanks... Uhh.. I didn't mean to be grabby, I was worried... And thanks, for finding her." Agh! Awkward Rae, your such an awkward child.

What else was supposed to go with manners??? Oh, right, introductions... She held her free hand out to the girl. Rae probably gave a horrible first impression, hair, a mess as usual, making grabby hands and screaming. Perhaps the girl even saw Rae chewing on Ev's nasty chocolate hair. Hah, oh well.. "I'm Rae..."

Rae shook her hand like polite people do.. Kyleigh... That name was only too familiar, though not from this girl. Rae almost frowned when she pushed the thought of the similar name from her mind. Yeah, Dessi... The niffler. "Me too, she helped me get the detention I always wanted!" No joke. Of course the detention itself didn't go as planned but, thats what tutoring was for in seventh year right?

Hah, right.

"Nothing much. We might go to France to visit my cousin and her new husband, but aside from that, I have no idea. I would probably end up just lazing around the house." She answered with a laugh "You?"



Cass looked away from her wand, which was done spewing out her spells, and turned to the guy who had suddenly sat next to her.

"Christopher!" She said in surprise with a smile on her face "Wow...I wasn't expecting you here...what are you doing here anyway?"

Maybe he had a Slytherin girlfriend and was visiting her and simply took the nearest vacant seat...or maybe...she didn't know! All she knew was that he was suddenly sitting next to her and it made her glad

"Nope, nothing AT ALL." She repeated. Psh, planning a party was easy...if you know what you were doing.

She glanced at her chocolate, which had now started to form into a sticky brown mass in her hands. Eeeew.. She set it down on her half-full plate and held her wand carefully using only two fingers. She first pointed it at her left hand, muttered scrougify, then did the same on her right. Then she took the melted chocolate and popped it into her mouth in one swift motion.

"Good. Besides, you wouldn't want to miss my birthday, would you?" She asked rethorically...

Speaking of birthdays...where was Brodie? She hasn't seen him since...since well he confessed to her during the prefect party

"Good to know!" She said happily. She was glad Alex had a fantastic year... aside from the thing with a certain someone

"Oh, my year?" Cass asked "If I tell you, do you promise not to hex anybody?"

He could be so overprotective most of the time sometimes....besides, it wouldn't do her any good to have her favorite cousin expelled from Hogwarts just after he had finished the school year.

Tearing her attention away from her favorite boys, she turned to Lafay when she heard Marie Salazar shout at Evelyn Shepard. Weren't they always together during class? Then what happened?

Then she watched as the crazy Gryffindor stand up and take responsibility for the older Slythie's pink hair. Then Lafay pointed out the painfully obvious, saying that it wasn't believable.

She was about to turn away, thinking that the discussion was over, when she noticed Evelyn Shephard's hair turn into chocolate...

Thank Merlin she finished hers before hand.

"Pfft! Tell me about it." she shrugged. The Slytherin really wished that somehow she could avoid that trip. Then to her surprise Cass suggested an idea. "Even though that was a very lovely idea and I'd love to go with you to France in a heart beat but I'm 100% sure that my father won't allow that to happen." she sighed.

"Hmm..Was a Ravenclaw boy involved when you wandering around?" she smirked. "Aww..Of course I waited for you hun. The Slytherin Queens won't be complete without your present." she smiled. "I can't believe that we already finished our second year already." and next year they will be a third year.

"Wow! Sounds like a great place." Freya said dreamily. She wished that one day she could go there. "Of course I'd come to your place." she gave the older Slytherin a smile. "Umm..Where do you live anyway?" she asked.

"My mother could be very persuasive...trust me." Cass said with a nod. She remembered that story that her grandmother told her when she was a kid about how her mother argued with her Herbology professor in Beubaxton's to change her OWL grade from a T to an A. Epic tale.

"But, if you really feel that way, I wouldn't push you or anything. I'm sure the trip wouldn't be as bad as you think..." Then she smiled and wriggled her eyebrows mischievously "I heard that there are a lot of hot guys there...." What good is a trip without a little eye candy? Right? Right?

"Now I know where your persuasive skill come from." Freya chuckled.

"Yeah I do hope so." she nodded her head. It'd be one hell of summer if the trip was bad she couldn't imagined how she would survive her third year if her summer went badly. Then she giggled when Cass mentioned about boys. "Yeah I suppose so." Come think of it the boys from Durmstrang who came for triwizard tournament last year weren't really that bad. Hmm..Maybe she would enjoy it after all. She grinned.

"of course" Cass said with a giggle as she bowed her head in recognition.

"Don't worry about it." Cass said reassuringly as she patted her bestie on the back "It would be fun. Its going to be a whole new experience for you and its going to be exciting and you get to spend time with your dad."

At least she has a dad....hers is missing and mum won't tell her what happened.

"Thanks hun." Freya said with a smile. Cass always knew how to make her feel better. The Slytherin didn't know what would she do without her besties. Then she saw her besties faces changed when she said about she spending time with her dad. Come think of it, Cass never mentioned about her dad. She had the urged to ask her bestie about it but now is not the right time.

"I hope you have a great time too with your mother in France." she said giving her bestie a smile hoping that it'd cheer her up a little.

O___O

What?!

Not only was it Evelyn but DESTINY was in on this too. "You... told her to do it? Gee, I guess I was wrong about both of you. Neither one of you are a true friend." Yep it was looking more and more like the only true friend she had was Mia. "Hope your little joke here was worth losing a friend over." Not that they seemed to care. Destiny would probably just go hang out with the lion head girl. She seemed to be getting along with her pretty well. Maybe she could hang out with her AND Carter. As for Ev... well let her hang out with that obnoxious lion sitting next to her.


Hearing Neptune ask Finn about his face she turned to the girl. "What's wrong with his face? I like it just the way it is. I don't see anything wrong with it." Meaning his face better stay the way it is and NO one better try messing with it.


"A potion? But Professor... isn't there something you can do to fix it now?" She asked as she took the potion from Lafay. Not that she wasn't grateful that tomorrow morning she would have her blonde hair back... it's just, she wanted it back NOW. Then she thought about it for a minute. Lafay didn't have to do anything to help her here, she could have just told her she would have to deal with it until it wore off. "I'm sorry professor. Thanks for the potion." She then turned back to Finn. "Think you can handle looking at the pink the rest of the night?"


Well it appears her so called best friends acted on their own. At least the rest of her house didn't hate her. Or at least she didn't think they did.


Again all Marie could do was roll her eyes at Josh and his little speech. The boy was more dramatic than most girls she knew... including Neptune.


O___O

Marie's eyes grew wide when she seen what Lafay did to Evelyn's hair. Chocolate? The one thing Ev hates the most. Well now, the girl can see what it's like having your hair messed with and made into the one thing that you really hate.

O___O again.

The only way to reverse it is to eat it. Oh my. At least Marie just had to use a potion on her hair to get it back to its beautiful blonde. Really sucks to be Evelyn right now. Bet the girl thinks twice before messing with someones hair again. "Sorry about your luck there Ev. I'm sure Destiny will be happy to help you with that problem you seem to have there." Oh this was going to be fun to watch. Destiny following Ev around like a little puppy. Of course she didn't laugh at the girl but she didn't feel sorry for her either. Karma was a..... well she was getting what she deserved.


Looks like she owes someone an apology.

Turning to Rae she swallowed hard. This was not easy for her. "I'm sorry for accusing you of doing this to me Rae. It seems my so called best friends are the ones that thought this was funny." Maybe they really were Rae's best friends more than hers now. Rae had succeeded in stealing her friends from her, which is the reason she never liked the girl to begin with... because she knew the girl was trying to push her out of the group. Well, now she could have Destiny and Evelyn all to herself. Marie wouldn't get in the way anymore.

Cass's eyes, which were now cast downward at the thought of her absent father, caught Freya's expression. She must have noticed her sudden change in demeanor. She couldn't hide anything from Freya, of course not, that would simply be stupid.

She smiled up at the blonde, hoping she could read what she was thinking...that she would tell her soon..but in due time. It wasn't that she didn't trust the young Slytherin, but because it hurt too much to remember someone who she never knew, but someone she should have.

"Thanks Hun." She said with another smile. Then she winked "I'll bring back presents from the City of Love."

Time to cause some trouble, thought the blonde. The blonde headed over to the Slytherin table. Lafay was there investigating some of the students about spells. Hmmm.. Weird. Not time to cause trouble, cause Lafay was already here. Emma waved her hand at Fee and put a finger to her lips telling her to be quiet, so that the Malfoy could scare Alex. Muhahahaha. She smirked as she tip-toed over and covered Alexbear's eyes. Deepening her voice, she asked him. "Guess who?" trying her hardest not to giggle. Smirk.

Christopher smiled and shrugged. "I guess I just didn't really know any Slytherins that well during the two years I've been here. I figured that might as well change that." He'd briefly talked with two Slytherin boys on the train at the beginning of the year, and Cass at the lake not to long ago, but he wanted to make some friends, even if they weren't in his house.

Lafay, Evelyn, Destiny and Marie
 

What? What did the woman mean saying that she did not believe him? She had to believe him! There was no better way to explain the reason for the charm Evelyn had performed, try to make her look innocent and save Destiny from her part of responsibility at the same time, was there? So, she had to believe him. Ah? Now the idea coming to him, he could also suggest that he stole Evelyn's wand to do it and the idea came because Destiny had joked about her own hair being pink. Would that one have been of better influence? He did not know. It was too late to change the statement anyway.

When he saw the Potions Mistress point her want at Evelyn, his mind raced for any way to block it. Would it work if he jumped on the spell's way? It might! So, the boy was planning to hug her again so the magic would hit him instead of her. However, he could see no flash of light of any colour or heard no incantation being spoken so he could not understand if there was a spell performed. Yet, it was indeed performed. As he witnessed his she-snake's hair turn into dark chocolate, his eyes widened with shock. How was that possible? There was also the disappointment with himself he was feeling because he had failed to protect her from that.

This had happened to Evelyn. To see what was ging to happen to Destiny, he quickly shifted his gaze at her yet she seemed to be fine with nothing changing a form on her. Therefore, he looked back at his girlfriend as the explanation Lafay had made about the spell she created was busying his mind. It could only be gone when eaten and she would have her hair back in a week. ''I hate magic!''. He hated magic and now he was angry at both Lafay and Marie. As a result stood up again to follow the woman to the staff table. But...there was also the fact that he could not leave Evelyn in this situation so he sat back and hugged her close.

''It's alright. We will find a way to help you. I promise.'' Yes, there must have been a way. Maybe an altarnate way. If not he could eat the bitter chocolate and he would not mind if she had been bald all the time so one week was promising to him yet to her it must have been frustrating. Still hugging her, the Gryffindor boy looked up at Marie when she spoke and the anger towards Lafay was joined by the anger towards that she-snake at that moment. He surely did not like the way she was speaking to her friends. Well...apparently she considered them ex-friends now. For only a colour changing spell? Seriously?

She was sorry about Evelyn? He did not believe so. ''Congratulations Marie!'' he said loudly with an obvious tone of bitter sarcasm.''You have just advanced to a level above being the meaniest of means. Even above the statute of being goddess of that even i cannot define or name it. Can you see what you have done? Are you even planning to bother to see it? What has been done to you can be fixed easily and i am sure it had no bad intention while being done because friends can make a little bit of fun of friends and that is called joking. But see Evelyn now. What has been done to her has a fully bad intention for it is called punishment and revenge. It is also a pain to get rid of unlike your problem. See what you have caused Marie? You keep calling her and Destiny so-called friends. Then why could not you be a true friend and accept it as a friendly joke and not bother Lafay about it so nothing bad would happen? Plus people can make mistakes! Even friends hurt friends sometimes but if the bound of friendship is true it never gets lost. Just like how i was about to kill Carter but we are still friends. So,can you see who is the real-so called friend? You are unbelievable, Marie.'' Breathing angrily he thought of taking his love to Gryffindor table for a moment yet he decided against it. Perhaps Evelyn would not like to do that and Destiny would have been left behind.

Marie and Josh too :D
 

Finlay frowned. Noticing how Marie had let go of his hand. That was a little weird. Was something wrong? "Marie....you okay?" Mmmm. That probably wasn't really that good a question because he knew that Marie wasn't okay. Not with her pink hair anyway.
Then it kind of hit him what had probably upset her. Him not telling Tuney why he wanted to stay here. Finn glanced at Marie, grabbing her hand again. To be quite honest, he didn't really care about his face right now.

"Marie's worth any punches I get." She really was, and he kind of had a feeling that Jimmy wasn't really going to be too bothered with him dating Marie. Not now anyway. He wanted intending on telling his best friend during the summer, a long way away from Diagon Alley. They didn't really need to be banned from any more shops. He probably would've said something but then he got distracted by something josh was saying.

"Josh!" Finaly shook his head, pushing himself up from his seat. That was not on. "If you have a problem with what has happened to Evelyn I suggest you take it up with Professor Lafay. It is her choice of punishment, not Marie's. So stop shouting your head off, and calm down." Yup. Listen to Prefect Carmicheal yo.

Just as she finished answering the Professor's question, the Slytherin girl raised a brow and glanced over her shoulder to her Gryffie. His idea? However much she wanted to nod and point out that it was allllll his idea, there was also the other side of her that would never forgive herself if she did that. Besides, this was Lafay. You never knew what she'd do and she had that dang beater's bat in her hand. WHY did she have that again?

Anyhow, Lafay didn't believe him anyways, however she couldn't help but smile at him, and give a small shrug of her shoulders. "It's fine Josh." Really, it was fine. Whatever Lafay would do to her, them, she could handle it!



Except....this.

Feeling the weight on her head turn rather heavy, she blinked in surprise before glancing back to the Professor. Eh? Eaten away? What should be eaten away!? Raising her hand up to her hair, she was horrified when she didn't feel the usual smooth and soft hair there. WHAT IS THIS!?

Before she could even ask what it was, Lafay was already leaving, and someone...was already pulling pieces of her hair out. WHY!?

Raaaeeee, put it back! Why...why are you eating it?

No. Noooo no no. This..this wasn't happening. This couldn't be chocolate. What in the world!? Couldn't Lafay make her drink veritaserum or something regardless if it was illegal to do or not!? "Don't...touch...my...hair." That was not going to be allowed until she fixed this. Ohhh hoo she was sooo going to fix it too. Right....NOW.



What in Merlin's beard Marie?! It was just a joke.

Moving her glare away from Lafay, and to Marie, Evelyn took a deep breath before composing herself. Right. Well, if she was going to fix this, then she better start now. "I'm surprised you aren't fixing your own hair by now." she muttered, uncrossing her arms. "Unless of course, you're starting to love the new look."

Hmph. Smirk.

Destiny! C'mon. They had a potion to brew right now, and they very well couldn't do it in the great hall.



Feeling Josh hug her, she both felt content, yet utterly horrified. OMG. He'd seen her hair. SHE hadn't even seen what she looked like yet, but she was pretty sure it was close to being like a half plastic doll at the moment. "I know how to fix it." she mumbled, reaching up to touch her hair. It...it wasn't even her hair now. It was disgusting chocolate. Bleh.

She may have been too absorbed in thinking about how to fix it, without anyone eating it of course, that she almost missed Josh...goodness, he needed to calm down. On the other hand though, since Marie hadn't done anything to stop Lafay then, well she wasn't going to do anything to stop Josh from saying what he wanted. Besides, she was getting the kind of vibe that was saying 'you deserve this' from Marie.

"Destiny." she said, glancing over to her friend. "You have to help me with something." And no, it was not to eat the chocolate. So get that out of your head peoples. Pffffft.

" I had to come and see my " fake sister" before I graduated" Rex told Emma." I will not be here asnymore so remember what I told you about those boys" Rex said to Emma." Besides my wedding, what are your plans for the summer?" Rex asked Emma.

*dies and rearranges*
 

WHAT!?

"Noooo." Destiny drawled, turning her attention back to Rae. Sure, she had a lot of pets already, but she never purposely lost any of them. It wasn't her fault they became jealous, crazy animals all because she was showing another more attention. And the niffler shouldn't have been trying to steal the handle of her trunk. "I didn't lose her, she lost me."

There was a difference!

Besides, someone found her already and Destiny made grabby hands towards Dessi.

Until Marie spoke.

Oh! Womp, womp.

Really!

It was a little bit of pink hair and Marie was acting like it was the end of the world. It wasn't like anyone was teasing her..just a few giggles here and there, but Destiny took that as a sign of jealousy. Yes, everyone was jealous of Marie's pink hair and she was just about to mention that when it was all 'I have nooo friends.'

Really!

"Oh, sorry, Marie. But how many times did you ruin my chocolate?" Chocolate that she will ever get back, mind you. "True friends don't ruin people's chocolate!" And they don't choose boys over them either..but Destiny was going to say that.

She did glare at Finn a little, though.



And now they were going to die.

Sure, Destiny would have LOVED to put all the blame on Josh, but she knew if she agreed with what he said, Lafay would just figure out she was lying. And she knew from experience that the punishment is always greater when you are caught in a lie.

Heaving a sigh, she gave a quick glare to Marie before standing up and following after Evelyn towards Lafay.

If they were going to die, Destiny knew it was going to be EPIC.

SWEET MERLIN!

Lafay was going to KILL Evelyn first and then KILL her. Destiny didn't want to watch her best friend die and she especially didn't want to die second. Where is the fun in that?

But, before she could even tell Lafay to take her first, the wand was pointed and she couldn't help but shut her eyes tight. She wasn't going to watch, she wasn't going to.

Or she was.

After what felt like FOREVER, her eyes opened up again and..Evelyn was ALIVE! She was ALIVE!

..SHE HAD CHOCOLATE HAIR!

*dies*



...Evelyn's hair was...

CHOCOLATE!

Destiny couldn't help but staaaare. Sure, she KNEW it was that horrible tasting kind just by looking at it, but STILL. It was chocolate and it was all over her best friend's head. She reached out just to touch it when she heard her yell at Rae for..eating it?

Even SHE wasn't going to eat it. Nope.

No matter how many times Lafay told her she had to. Josh was her boyfriend..don't they like eating hair? Destiny didn't know and she wasn't about to ask.

"Josh, with a speech like that, you should run for Minister of Magic." Of course, she wasn't going to tell him they would only vote for him to get him to shut up. Merlin! Destiny never even talked that much when she was on a chocolate rush.

And speaking of chocolate..

She turned back to Evelyn when she mentioned needing her help. "Right.." She was going to have to eat it, wasn't she? With a look of pure DISGUST on her face, since it was that bitter, CHEAP chocolate, Destiny started on her way out of the great hall.

..only to turn back..

..when she heard Marie.

Silently mocking Marie and her words, Destiny leaned over the table and, acting like she was going to grab the BIG bowl of potatoes in front of the pink haired girl, she instead RIPPED the potion Lafay gave her out of her hand.

"Tough luck there, Marie."

And with that, Destiny Shepard ran out of the Great Hall. Hopefully Evelyn was following..
