| | | The Abandoned Mermaid Lagoon  Thank you, Karla, for the graphic! Your mind dwells on the clues at hand as you wander down towards the lake. Why would this last clue lead you here? What could possibly be found?
Just around the bend, you catch a glimpse of something colorful. Curious, you dwell deeper through the trees now following the wonderful smell of vegetation and the sound of rushing water until suddenly you are cut short by the spectacular view before you.
There, hidden from the world is a beautiful tropical lagoon. Clear blue water laps up at the small beach, bordered by lush ferns and tall, swaying palm trees. Rocky easily climbable out-croppings frame the lagoon's clear water, punctuated by a gentle waterfall that slopes in such a way that your first mischievous thought is how it could easily be used as a "water slide."
As you get closer, you see algae covered tridents washed up on the shore along with what looks like scaled armor covered in barnacles. Here and there float sea shell brassieres, conch shell horns, and an old fishing net tangled among the rocks beside forgotten coral jewelry. Your mind hurries to connect the dots and it is then that you realize that this must be an abandoned merfolk dwelling of some sort.
Filled with interest you venture out of the vegetation, and give a start as you notice the head boy Finlay Carmicheal and head girl Iris Beaumont.
They smile at you in welcome.
Congratulations, for this is indeed the end of your search. |

She emerged, laughing and clasped her hands together, immersing them in the water a little and blowing through the hole between her thumbs, a small stream of water went towards Iris and Aurora dived under, ready for another go on the waterfall/slide/thingy.
Lying on the rocks she stared at the sky, wondering what all her old friends were doing... probably taunting the Herr Schwech or something... She wished she was back there...

She cast a wary eye at the Slytherins (mostly Sierra) who she didn't think seemed too keen on Hufflepuffs and wondered briefly if she shouldn't be targetting herself in bright yellow. After all, it wasn't too late for that life sacrifice she was convinced awaited her after following Lola and Sierra. She had read in books how Slytherins used to be more...sinister than they were now. She had always been nervous around them because of the things she had heard.
But Iris was a Slytherin, and she was letting her keep the bathing suit. So - yay for some Slytherins!!
Harper brought herself back to the present, non-fearing Slytherin day and smiled at the girl again. "Nice suit," she said kindly, admiring the yellow.
At least she wouldn't be the only target. 
Penny was glad to see other puffs wearing yellow... she loved the color and it was an added bonus that it was also her house color...
She saw harper, eyeing the slytherins with trepidation..but Penny wasn't worried - one of her best friends in hogwarts was in Slytherin - come to think about, she hadn't seen Aurora for a few days... Quote:

Penny dived into the beautiful water and swam for a few minutes - it really was lovely here...
Then she saw a girl over by the rocks that she knew - that's soo weird, i was just thinking about you she thought with a smile... swimming lazily over to Aurora who was lying on the rocks... "Hi Aurora, how have you been?...this place is great isn't it?"

"Hi Aurora, how have you been?...this place is great isn't it?" Aurora heard her name and sat up, her green swimming costume had dried out and she pulled her knees up to her chest. "Hey Penny, I'm alright, you?" she smiled at the Hufflepuff. "It's beautiful isn't it!" she let her feet dangle in the water. "Have you been on the waterfall slide thingy yet?" she asked.

He wanted to impress her with some of his knowledge. Selina lightly smiled at him and continued, "I'm a second year. So I'm kind of surprised I've never seen you around before, we should have a lot of the same classes."
Shrugging her shoulders she said, still with her eyes only slightly more lively than they were before, "Really Seeker? Yeah I'm not a huge fan of that position... it is too much waiting around for me. And also the concentration thing for me is an issue. I have little to no patience in a competitive situation. So yeah, I couldn't do it. It's a real art being a Seeker. My best friend Kurumi is a Seeker."

"I don't really like classes. I prefer to do my studying in the library." He still attended them, in the back. Just about.
He nodded, "You get noticed more." And that was his aim. "You don't wait around at all. Cos you always have to be on the watch for the snitch." Noone seemed to wait around for long if they did at all. From that one game he had seen.

Noone seemed to wait around for long if they did at all. From that one game he had seen. Selina nodded a little at his logic for Quidditch, but didn't really share a similar sentiment. Only people who didn't know much about Quidditch thought that the Seeker got more attention. The main players of the game were Chasers and Keepers. They kept the actual game going. True Quidditch fans knew everyone on the team... not just the Seekers.
"Well I guess you could look at it that way. I don't and neither does my team. It isn't one person's game. It's a team effort."

Originally Posted by CassiopeiaAKTF Daichi rolled his eyes and got out of the grip on his shirt. Jonathan was right, he had started it but couldn't he have atleast a little fun? School has been very stressing to him this year. You know, newbie, not being able to perform a simple magic spell. Oh no scratch that, According to Evan he was good at spells..just his aiming was bad. He seriously wondered how he had gotten in to the Quidditch team.
Daichi looked a bit sad when Jonathan was looking at his soaked clothes. It wasn't his favorite right?! "I'm very sorry about the whole water thing...i-i ..." he didn't say anything more and just bowed. Jonathan was part Asian, he knew what he meant...hopefully. "Oh, uhm, everything is going fine." he began. "This year was loads of fun! ..except for some classes.. but Evan, you know our Prefect! He had given me lessons in spells! pretty awesome right?!" His eyes twinkled and he nodded his head to his own question. "I did however almost kill him one time.." he murmered. "But that's beside the point! I learned this cool spell that makes things explode!" His eyes started to sparkle now, a broad smile on his face. "Ooooh!" he said immediatly exicted again. "Oooh oh! the next Quidditch match is Sunday!.. are you coming too?..did i tell you i'm on the team? ME!" He pointed to himself. "Hmm i wonder what's for dinner" he said to himself.
He laughed when Jonathan brought up the going home thing. "I live in England if your wondering" he said as he looked at Jonathan. "I was born in Milton Keynes, what about you?" he asked curiously.
At the mention of swimming, Daichi quickly shook his head left to right. "I-i-i can't swim!" Just his feet in the water was perfectly fine but going further then his legs in the water was a big NUHUH. "Thanks for not throwing me in the water as revenge..." he said awkwardly. Seriously is he....... bowing? Well, unlike his family Jonathan is more of the English type. He possibly have adapted more of their culture rather than the ones he have at home. He is pretty stubborn to learn about other cultures. Heck, it took his father 4 years until he eventually wanted to learn Korean. Not good. Up to now, he's not much of an expert.
Oh well...
Yeah, Jonathan remembers the prefect. Who wouldn't remember the Prefect anyway? But Jonathan just felt amused and wanted to literally laugh out loud when Daichi told him that he nearly killed the Prefect. "Well, at least now I know that I should not tutor you with uhmmm.... magic spells" of course he is teasing. "Don't worry, the more you stay here at Hogwarts the better your magic skills will be" unless they won't exchange fat Borr for DADA. Headmaster should definitely fire the minister. He's not really teaching DADA.
Whoah! Whoah! Whoah! One question at a time! geez, what is this? A quiz show? He arches an eyebrow and his thoughts just drifted away as Daichi just rolled out those questions. Fast. Hmmm... "Yes, I knew you got into the quidditch team since i watched EVERY game" yes, every game "NO" to the second question "I do not know the menu" does Jonathan look like a house elf? "and NO i didn't know that you grew up in London" yes because Jonathan thought he grew up somewhere in Asia. It could happen. "And again, yes, I was born and raised in London" he added a smile to that.
Awesome...
Daichi had to just spoil Jonathan with things Jonathan wants to know. So he doesn't swim eh? Jonathan had that devious look on his face. Oh the awesome things he could do while they're still here. "Swimming is fun." oh yes it is, now that he knows. heeheehee. "Nah don't worry. I'm not going to put you in the water" or not.

She could see where he was coming from to a certain extent, she had just been raised by a Professional Quidditch Player who happened to play Chaser, so she had been fostered to appreciate the game as a whole. Her father said that it didn't matter what was done by whom, as long as the team worked together and won together. And he should know, he was the Captain of the Fowlmouth Falcons.
"I do see where you are coming from. But I think the whole wanting to get noticed thing isn't beneficial to the game. If you want a girl to notice you, whoever the girl is, just smile and be nice and be yourself. Girls like that more than a show off."

Conan smiled, "Unfortunately just my house puts me behind in the race. So a smile and be myself doesn't really garner me any positive points." Sadly. But it kind of worked. But not enough. He was sure he had better competition than him anyway. Either from Treyen or Eino. Evil evil Eino. "I thought Quidditch would get her attention." He sighed. "I am more interested in learning than sports. I love engineering." He smiled again at her. "What do you like to do, Selina?"

"Of course I do...but I need to get my suit first." She pulled out her wand and summoned her own stuff. She saw the trunks full of stuff...but she wanted her own.
Fallon grinned as her clothes flew toward her. "Be right back." She ran over to the changing tent and quickly put her clothes on. She shoved what she had been wearing into her bag and carried the stuff out. She smiled at Finn. "Let's go."

| Anyone? ¼ of the Sisterhood of the Traveling Pls Walking up to the lagoon, Evan looked around in awe. Yes, he knew about here before it was 'open to public', but still... it looked different somehow, maybe it was because of the joy of people that filled here now.
Walking around slowly, he stopped facing the water and wondered where Mina was... he had dropped by their third task to maybe catch her, but she was nowhere to be found... she hopefully wasn't sick, was she? |

He took his sunglasses from the back of his head and dropped them on his shoes just as Ivory took off.
Glancing at Arya, Dal half-smiled. "Shall we?" he nodded toward Ivory before jogging after her. He climbed up the rocks, standing on the top and looking down at the invitingly-blue water. "See ya," he said with a wink before diving into the water. Quote:
Originally Posted by grangerfan8 "I won't fight, but I do plan on racing them to the rope swing." Arya grinned, like she would really fight the students over the rope swing. It would totally ruin the entire event.
Heh. "Of course," How could she forget about the girl's boyfriend? It did sadden her a bit, the small reminder that Sabel wasn't here to enjoy this with her as well, but she didn't dwell on it. The huffie prefect still had her best friends and... well everyone else to swim and have fun with.
Arya grinned at Ivory with a shocked short of look. "Of course I came to get wet! I woudn't be wearing this if I didn't wanna explore the waters." She motioned to her black two-piece with her free hand. "I think we shall," Kicking off her sandals she followed after the two claws, she climbed the rocks and grinned wildly before diving into the blue waters. "Cannonball!" Timing it so that she dived down at the exact moment her friends were coming up for air, Ivory jumped off the rocks with a hop between them
Curling her body for maximum impact, she hit the water with a splash. The water was a delicious cool feeling along her skin and almost automatically her eyes popped open underwater. Amazingly, the prefect found she could see surprisingly clearly. For a moment she paused there expelling a bit of air slowly and waving her arms to keep herself under so she could admire the colorful coral and tiny fishes.
Grinning happily, she kicked her legs and swam for the surface coming up with a gasp of air. "The water feels great!" Stretching her legs, she leaned back in the water floating contently. "So Ayra, how'd the 'puffs do in the 2nd task? And Dallin," Waggling her fingers at him, she directed the next question towards him. "How'd you fare on the lily pads?"

Walking around slowly, he stopped facing the water and wondered where Mina was... he had dropped by their third task to maybe catch her, but she was nowhere to be found... she hopefully wasn't sick, was she? Harper was beyond contentment in the lagoon, and couldn't help from smiling. Good, more Hufflepuffs were showing up. And more of all the houses! Yayyy!!She turned to her right shoulder, about to praise Pretzel the pygmy puff for how good he was being, not jumping off her shoulder into the water and all, when - WHAT?!
Harper turned around and around and couldn't see the purple fuzz ball anywhere. She searched the ground hurriedly. It would take forever to find him here! THAT STUPID THING!! Treyen was going to KILL her!! She was almost on the ground now, bent really low and cooing at what seemed like just the sand. That tricky thing would be around here SOMEWHERE. She began to almost race walk in her crouched position, her eyes only focused on the sand, when - "Ooomff!" she huffed as she ran into a pair of legs. She fell back onto the sand, startled, and looked up. Please let it be Treyen, please let it be Treyen...
It was a Slytherin. CRAP. Terror seized her as she just lay in the sand, her eyes wide with worry. Darn it, Harp, THINK. "Oh, I'M SO SORRY, SLYTHERIN GUY!!" she squealed as she struggled to get up.
And all this time she had failed to notice that Pretzel sat quite safely on top of her head, amazingly staying perfectly perched the entire time.

Mostly out of habit she reached out to take his hand...and almost stopped herself, but with a small sigh escaping her lips she held her hand out in an offer for him to take if he so chose to do so. Old habits die hard? No. She longed to hold his hand and walk a while.
"Thanks. You do, too. Blue has always looked great on you," she said quietly and then chewed on her lip. "Let me s-s-start by offering you a big apology. I shouldn't...I shouldn't have blown up on you like that. And... I didn't mean what I said...and I feel wretched about slapping you like that... can you forgive me?" she blurted out on one breath and then sucked in a big gulp of air. She turned her head away, but kept her hand out for him. Hope. She had it. He didnt even notice that he had stopped breathing when Lexi spoke to him, realizing after the fact only when he started to feel lightheaded "Thanks!" he replied with a smile and a small shrug of his shoulder, feeling the elation starting to build up when she recognized what he was wearing. He paused and turned to face her when she started to apologize, his eyes dropping to the ground and watched the water lap against their feet "You were angry Lexi, I understood that..." he said shrugging both his shoulders this time, trying to convey that it wasnt an issue to him. Yes it stung but to him what hurt more was that she ended it point blank when he didnt want to. He didnt expect that it would be so final so quickly.
He finally raised his eyes up to her lovely visage "Of course I forgive you Lexi..." he whispered as he drew closer to her, taking her fingertips slowly and gradually laced his fingers with hers, then reaching out and doing the same with their other hands. "I know I said some things that was painful for you too but really that wasnt my intentions. I'm so sorry that I hurt you Luv, in the Library or at any time in the past and I too dense to even realize it."

Fallon grinned as her clothes flew toward her. "Be right back." She ran over to the changing tent and quickly put her clothes on. She shoved what she had been wearing into her bag and carried the stuff out. She smiled at Finn. "Let's go." Woot. She wanted to swimming. That was good. "Okay..." Well that was obviously really. He was already in his swim stuff, but then he hadn't been on a big hunt through the castle. So he wasn't surprised that Fallon had to go and like get changed. Finlay smiled as he watched her go off, and he kind of hope she didn't take too long. He knew how girls were with getting changed. But she wasn't that long so it was pretty cool.
"Lets." He nodded, grabbing her hand ago. Mmm. She looked really pretty, but he decided not to tell her. He didn't really want her getting really all embarrassed in front of everyone. Gently he tugged her towards the waters edge, before they like.....walked into a girl who was shouting her head off. Quote:

Finlay shook his head at the hufflepuff. That was not good. "Stop shouting." Because that was not cool. And it was totally ruining their pretty lagoon. "This is actually the end of the hunt. Theres nothing to find here. It's too have fun. And right now your ruining everyone else's fun with your shouting." Which Finlay really didn't like. "So...go enjoy yourself."

| Hi having-fun people! ^_^ Anyone? Dalliesa | Ab-Bot | Hogwarts Trojan War |
Louisa walked veeeery carefully and in a spy-ish way into the lagoon. Hopefully, no one would see her because she wanted to study the place before recklessly having fun in a place where a HUNT had lead them to it (even if she didn't participate in the scavenger hunt that was).
Standing still one inch before the 'wet land' and staring down at it. Mermaids weren't so nice and pretty as Ariel was portrayed -muggleborn alert- and she wasn't about to risk touching the water they used to live in. Or still lived in. Not even a small tiny touch. Gazing down at it was fun too. But again, she hadn't come in here for fun purposes, she had to observe only and make sure it was safe to have fun.
Who you calling paranoid? -__-

"I know I said some things that was painful for you too but really that wasnt my intentions. I'm so sorry that I hurt you Luv, in the Library or at any time in the past and I too dense to even realize it." Lexi felt her heart beating in her throat as she waited for Sal to speak. It was like waiting for a judge to give a sentence... she was scared the death penalty was coming. OH! He wasn't going to give her the worst. Thank Merlin. " It's no excuse really... I shouldn't have acted out like that, Salander. I- I- I was just so upset with you. I really thought that you were trying to let me down easily. You know, that you really didn't want to be with me anymore but you were afraid to say it," she said miserably.
Looking straight at him as he looked into her eyes she smiled a tiny smile and gladly wrapped her fingers around his. She began to shake her head as he spoke and then sighed slightly. " Yes, I have been hurt, but... really it's only because I have been too sensitive. The only thing that bothers me Sal... is that sometimes I feel like you can't appreciate who I am. I mean flaws and all. I feel like you have the need to change me so much that sometimes I lose myself. That's all... And I am sorry that I made you feel like I was bored with you. That was never the case. I just... needed something to occupy my mind all of the time and I sought to do so. It really never was a dig at you, babe. I love you. No one else but you," she said with as much feeling as she could muster.

But it kind of worked. But not enough. He was sure he had better competition than him anyway. Either from Treyen or Eino. Evil evil Eino. "I thought Quidditch would get her attention." He sighed. "I am more interested in learning than sports. I love engineering." He smiled again at her. "What do you like to do, Selina?" Selina shook her head and laughed slightly. Her eyes were still dark with pain, but leave it to a Hufflepuff to say something about Hufflepuff being bad. "I don't think it puts you behind. One of my best friends is a Hufflepuff. That doens't make her bad or put her behind in the race. The only people who view Hufflepuffs as being put behind in the race are Slytherins-" Then it dawned on her... it was a Slytherin. It had to be.
"What Slytherin do you like?" The little Gryffindor questioned.

"What Slytherin do you like?" The little Gryffindor questioned. Conan was shocked. She had actually kind of worked it out. His close friends knew who he liked. But noone else did. "Ummm well," he shuffled in his seat uncomfortably. "Sierra." Hopefully he didn't have to say her surname. That would've been awkward.
