James nodded and smiled. He listened to her before he spoke. "That's good." James told her. As long as no one was hurt everything was smooth sailing. Spaking of sailing he wished he could go sailing right now or riding his horse. "It's lovely to meet you Amy Samson." James said. "What year are you in?" Jay asked her.

Yeah Amy grinned, from the lack of reaction to La Flame, Amy knew. He was a newbie. Even the seventh years trembled at the sound of that woman. Seventh Years. THAT was how scary the woman was. And you Jay Heywood she grinned at him, oooh, he was new. EVERYONE knew about Amy...not. Fourth year Amy grinned, Hufflepuff, she nodded, aka, the cool house, she beamed. You?

James nodded. "I'm a fourth year as well. But I'm a Ravenclaw. It must not be as cool as Hufflepuff then." James laughed. "So when there is no school what do all of you guys do around here?" James asked Amy. He was pretty bored right now well not with her, she seems pretty cool.

Ooooh FOURTHYEARYOUSAY. Excitin-ness. She didn't know any Americans. That was cool. She knew one now. Though not a Puff, he was still cool, he was American after all. No, but nearly as cool she grinned, a smarty pants I'm guessing? She grinned.

Well, there is Diagon Alley Amy nodded, unless you go home, I tend to stay around London she shrugged, but sometimes you can go to Hogsmede and stuff she nodded

Simon saw Amy and this other person talking, that was no good, he needed a Gryffindor, Ravenclaw or Slytherin Jumper he didn't care which is was, but once the Hufflepuff looked at the House Points then he was going to be in trouble unless he could find somone who would be willing to give him there jumper if not he would have to steal one though he didn't want to do that.

Simon shouted in the corridor. "Does anyone have a Jumper I can lend?" Simon smiled, "I don't want a Hufflepuff one I want one of the other houses." He hoped no Professor was listening to what he was saying if they found out would he be in trouble though he shouldn't be really.

Eino was strolling down the fifth floor corridor in an especially cheerful mood. For November, the weather was particularly nice for a walk outside, but even better for a good old pogrebin hunt. "Surely they ought to be so cold I will see the rocks trembling!" He exclaimed to himself as he continued. And when those rocks moved - SNATCH! Progrebin caught! It had been a while since he had time for this, with all that work assigned by Lord Borr he barely had time to do anything, but today would be different!

Whistling, he hurried down the corridor until he reached a Hufflepuff student who seemed to want to change robes? "What a curious request!" Eino said suddenly to the boy hoping not to have frightened him. Was he trying to change houses? Eino wouldn't blame him! He had heard of a terrible incident that had resulted in the loss of fifty points. Maybe the boy was searching for a more, uh, prosperous House. Still, he couldn't be too sure. "Why is it that you see a different robe?" He asked leaning forward, very close to the boys's face.

Simon looked at the Ravenclaw Student, that would be a great idea but the problem would be if Professor Vindictus saw him. "Well I keep seeing Progrebin with this jumper on but when I take it off I don't see them anymore." Simon lied. "I'm Simon Leonarder De Simpson but you can call me Simon." Simon smiled, hopefully this Ravenclaw won't ask too many questions about the points loss, he just needed somewhere too hide out for a bit, he had this feeling once Treyen found out about the points loss he would be in trouble.

Progrebins!? Eino's eyes widened and he leaned even closer toward the boy. Did he just say pogrebins or was Eino hearing things?! "Hmmm..." Eino paused for a moment thinking. Maybe if he brought the boy along he could use him as bait to lure the pogrebins and prepare a trap! That way he could be able to catch many pogrebins at once.

Eino's planning was then interrupted by the boy's introduction. "Dear me..." That was along name. "It's nice to meet you Simon... Uh, Loanenrdesasieopion..." Eino could barely remember his first let alone the other four of five names he had. "My name's Eino." He took the boy's hand, even though Simon wasn't extending it, and shook it violently. He was very excited about this pogrebin-attracting robe. "Okay, let's go find the pobregins!" With that Eino took the boy by his robe and dragged him towards the moving staircase.

Simon looked at the boy and started to say. "Hello Eino, nic.." When suddenly he was starting to be dragged by the boy, this wasn't fair he didn't want to go out. "I'm Simon Leonarder De Simpson, How dare you.." Simon said calmly, luckerly he hadn't said he was a Prince like he nearly did. "You can't just drag people against their will." Simon sighed, surely there was a rule against, that saying that when had Simon caren't about rules maybe he had met his match with this kid.

"Eh, I'm sorry I can't come with you, I have to go see Lafay, something about messing about in her class or something like that." Simon lied again. "She scares me and so I don't really want to get in her bad books, maybe if you took my jumper and I took your then you can find the pogrebin on your own you don't need me then right?" Simon was hoping he could get going soon before a Professor came.

Eino tilted his head to the side trying to memorize his full name, but no, there was no way he could repeat all of that. Simon will no. Just then the boy began to scold him for dragging him. Eino was just so excited that he was very eager to put the robe's ability to test. "I suppose so..." He replied shamefully, lowering his head. Well, he didn't like it when others dragged him so it was only fair for him to be scolded for it.

"Woe is me!" Came out of Eino's mouth when the boy objected to follow him. Just when he was so close to a breakthrough in pogrebin hunting this had to happen. This wasn't the first time Professor Lafay had ruined his day, though. In fact, it was the two hundred and seventy sixth time she had ruined his day. "She scares me too..." Eino attempted to console Simon, at least that was something they had in common, they both of them feared the Dragon Lady. Then again, almost everyone did.

When Simon suggested that they exchange robes Eino hesitated. On the bright side he would be able to capture many pogrebins, or actually capture one for the first time ever, but on the negative side... He couldn't really thinking of any bad consequences. It was just exchanging robes after all and he couldn't recall a rule against it. "Very well!" He said removing his robe and hanging it to the boy. "Let's meet here in a few hours to exchange them back." That didn't sound too bad, a few hours wouldn't hurt anyone. Right?

Simon looked at the boy and smiled. "Eino have you ever had detention with Professor Lafay?" Simon asked. "Because if you haven't I can say you don't know how bad she is." Simon was being truthful there he thought the Professor was going to kill him that day or at least send him somewhere he didn't want to go.

Simon couldn't believe how easy this boy had fallen for his trick, though maybe he would come back in a couple of hours or maybe not, he'd probably have too otherwise when he went into his common room he would be told off for being a Ravenclaw in the Hufflepuff Common Room. "Yeah we should meet back here in a few hours." Hopefully Treyen would tell this boy off instead of him, taken off his robes he passed them over to Eino whilst taking the robes Eino was holding out, he quickly put the Ravenclaw one on. "I hope you find loads of Pogrebins." Simon smiled. "So what time should we meet?"

Eino shook his head then gulped. "N-no..." Thank goodness he never had detention with that woman, or detention at all, for that matter. Apparently Simon Loanenrdesasieopion had lived to tell the tale so maybe she wasn't that bad. Still, Eino would not want to experience it.

Eino then took Simon's Hufflepuff robes and put them on. He took a good look at himself and he didn't look too bad in gold and black. He kind of liked it. "Ooooooooh! I can feel it! I can feel the magical powers of the robe." He told Simon as he examined the sleeves, the collar, the pockets, the trim, and so on. Surely this meant he would capture many pogrebins! "Thank you so much for your generosity. I promise to take very good care of it." Pogrebin hunting was dirty business though, so he would try to keep his promise. "At the end of the day, right before supper." That was his suggestion. That way he could spend the whole day hunting then retire to the Ravenclaw Common room at night.

Conan was exploring. He wasn't outside, so he had to stretch his legs somewhere. And here he was on the fifth floor. He spotted, two kids. Arguing over robes. Or something like that anyway. He frowned as he got closer. He spotted one of the kids. "Eino?" It was Eino right? The rock guy. Yes it was him. But in Hufflepuff robes. He was a Ravenclaw right?

Wow this was confusing.

Simon smiled he was invisable at last, if Treyen was looking for him, he would never find him which was a good thing will all the points he had lost, maybe he could lost some for Ravenclaw before switching back, saying that if he did that then his plan would be worried so no he was going to try and behave for the next few hours until they switched back.

Simon looked at this boy said he could feel the magic, how stupid was he, maybe he needed to go to st mungo but he wasn't going to suggest that, Eino was doing him a big favour which he didn't know about. "Your welcome, I hope you catch loads and if the robes get a bit dirty it's okay I brought plenty." Simon said truthfully.

"Right lets do that, meet me back here just before supper." Simon smiled. "And remember to not go into your common room otherwise you might get into trouble for breaking in." Simon reminded the boy, as long as they stayed out of the common room they were okay because there was no rules against switching robes. "I'll see you later then and once again have fun." Simon smiled as he walked off.

Simon suddenly saw the Hufflepuff as he walked off, he was scared they would get caught so instead he ran off in the Ravenclaw Robes hopefully Eino could pretend to be someone else, but he wasn't sure as long as Eino was back by supper time they would be fine.

Just as he was fastening the last button on his new magical progrebin attracting robe, Eino heard his voice. Turning around he recognized his Hufflepuff friend, Conan, who had one upon a time lost his parents to the pogrebins. "Greetings, Conan!" Eino said waving. "Loo, we match!" He showed off his new Hufflepuff badge. They certainly did. "Say, what are you doing just now? I could use some help!" Perhaps Conan would like to participate in some pogrebin hunting again, and if the robe's power to attract pogrebins had anything to do with the fact that it belonged to a Hufflepuff, then Eino could get twice as many pogrebins with Conan there.



Eino listened attentively and nodded in agreement. "Understood!" He didn't want to get into any trouble so he would take this advice very seriously and avoid the Hufflepuff Common Room. Although, wouldn't he need a password to enter? "Thank you very much, Mister Simon!" Eino said waving at Simon as he walked away. Right, now it was time for some pogrebin hunting. Eino returned his attention to Conan. "Sorry, about that... So, are you free?"

Conan frowned. It was Eino. "Why are you in Hufflepuff robes?" Why did they match? It can't have been a good thing. Not good for Conan anyway.

He nodded though, very slowly, "I am free. What for though?" He didn't want to hunt for anything. Last time he did that he nearly lost his Mom. Never a good thing.

"I am wearing these robes because they will help attract pogrebins." Eino explained showcasing his Hufflepuff robes. "I suppose that means you will also attract pogrebins, which reminds me, would you like to come pogrebin hunting with me?" How could anyone turn down such a tempting offer?! Hopefully, not Conan. Plus, Conan had once or twice joined Eino for pogrebin hunting, so he already knew what to do. Maybe. It's okay, Eino didn't know what to do either, but he thought he did. "So?" He pressured the boy.

Conan's eyes widened. Attracting pogrebins? He shed his robes faster than you could blink. "Is it just the robes? Or all yellow?" he panicked. He was in the process of ripping off his trousers, and his jumper. Everything had to go. He couldn't be certain that he was clean.

He shook his head fiercely. No. No stone seeking. He was not doing it. Even if he had to walk around naked.

"I do believe is... both." Eino nodded his head and watched the boy take his robe off. He wasn't entirely sure what it was about the robe, he wasn't even sure if it was the same for all, but he hoped so. Conan did look rather anxious when he discovered the robe's magical abilities. "You oughtn't do that." Eino warned as he watched the boy ready to take off his jumper, but it didn't seem to make a difference. "I was thinking we should begin in the grounds." Eino contemplated ignoring the boy's nonverbal response. "We can set a trap by the lake. You can stand there to lure then, they surely must come for water, then we capture them!" It was brilliant plan, he thought. If only Conan agreed to cooperate.

Conan kept going, especially after he heard that is was probably the yellow. Suddenly he was just standing there, shivering, in just his underpants and socks. His clothes were in a neat pile in front of him.

"You should find someone else." Like Treyen. He would help. Not Conan though. He would never go out. Not outside, and not in his underpants. "Try Treyen Lockhart. He is nice." Of course he was. Conan loved him, secretly. A bromance love. Not anything.

"Splendid!" Eino exclaimed clapping his hands. Eino was delighted to see Conan in his underpants, ready to jump in the lake and serve as bait for the pogrebin. "That will do." Eino nodded and gestured towards the moving staircase. "We can find this Treyen on our way down! We should make the most of your motivation while it is at its peak!" Eino had never seen anyone so dedicated to pogrebin hunting as Conan was. It was chilly outside for him to offer himself to go in the lake in his underpants, but Eino couldn't fight the fire within the young Hufflepuff. This would certainly lead to a groundbreaking discovery in the art of pogrebin hunting. "Come along!" Eino said as he marched down the corridor headed for the staircase.

Conan still shook his head, "I am n..n...n...not going down to the lake with you." He was shivering quite a bit right now. He could feel his hair sticking up all over his body.

"Treyen is the Hufflepuff prefect. He is always around." Anything to delay this possible manoeuvre. "I'm not going with you." He rubbed his arms to relieve the goosebumps. He was cold.

"What clever thinking!" This Hufflepuff was just full of surprises. He wouldn't go with Eino because then the pogrebins would spot them and recognize it as a trap! He ought to be in Ravenclaw, or Gryffindor considering his bravery to go alone. "So I suppose you should go first..." Eino said rubbing his chin as he thought of a plan. "I will stay here, and watch them from afar." He looked around and spotted a window, ran towards it, took a good look, then returned to Conan. "I can get a clear view of the lake from this window, so when I spot them I will run down and capture them." A better plan could not exist. This was a groundbreaking day for pogrebin hunting.

Conan's mouth dropped open. This boy was crazy. Why did he not get the hint? "I am not going down to the lake at all," he shook his head. WHAT???? It was Eino idea to begin with. He was not going first. Even if he was going at all. "You should go. And I will watch from here and pounce," he nodded. Yeah suggest it so the boy would leave. Go away weird Ravenclaw. "You know what they look like better than I do."

"Not the lake?" Conan was probably thinking of a different, better location to find the pogrebins. Maybe he had more experience at this than Eino expected. "Where do you suggest, then? But I should advise you that if you're not planning on going swimming, you oughtn't walk around in your underpants." And that was very good advise, Eino thought. "Very well, I shall go then, and redirect the pogrebins to you so you can 'pounce.'" Not that he knew exactly what Conan would do, but he trusted him. With that Eino walked towards the moving staircase nearly falling a couple of times due to his new robe's length.
