Aurora winced as the snowball hit her then turned to the other girls, ooh, both Slytherin, how convenient. "Hey, I'm Aurora, wanna team up?" She bent and compacted another snowball.

Fallon grinned as the snowball hit the girl. "No rules in a snowball fight!" She laughed as the newly thrown snowball hit her. Oh well. It was still fun.

Fallon turned back to Simon. "Ha. We'll see about that Simon!" She dodged his snowball and started to form another one...

...now some other Slytherin girl had wandered over. Simon was in for big trouble from three female snakes. She grinned and threw the snowball at Simon.

Fallon smiled at the other snake. "Sounds good to me. Snakes against Puffs?" Right now there was an unfair advantage, but hey. Slytherins were allowed to take advantage of those situations.

"Woop! We can't lose!" she hurled the snowball in the direction of the boy.
"Who are we throwing these at? Did you say he was called Simon?" she laughed, scooping up more snow.

Simon wasn't watching behind him when splat, another Slytherin girl had hit him, this wasn't fair it was like him against everyone else but he didn't care, he threw a snow ball at everyone else that was involved in the fight, but he made sure he threw two at the person who had hit him.

Team? Why not?

Helena nodded, while a grin spread across her face. "I'm Helena," she managed to say, while she tried to make another snowball.

"Snakes against only one," Helena said with a tiny smirk.

And they were going to win, riiiight?

Simon looked at the girl. "You could bring an Army of Slytherins but you would never win." Simon gave an evil laugh and then he grabbed some snow and chucked it at the girl.

Fallon giggled. "Nope. We definitely can't." Fallon nodded at the girl's question as she grabbed another snowball. "Yep. He's Simon and I'm Fallon."

Fallon lobbed the snowball at Simon. She watched as it soared right over his head. She really needed to work on her aim...

"Nice to meet you Helena and you too Aurora." Fallon nodded as she prepared another snowball. "Why not?"

Aurora ducked as snowballs headed right towards her and only just managed to dodge the first. The second one hit her right in the chest. "Oooft," she bent over double to catch her breath, sneakily scooping up a handful of snow. Then she stood and threw it as hard as her twelve-year-old arms could throw.

"Hi!" replied Aurora, breathing fast. "Yup, we can't lose. Would be more fun if there were more people to throw at though." she said, grinning.

"Oh yes, we will win," Helena grinned, trying to avoid the snow he threw at her... but it didn't quite work. She was terrible when it came to these kind of things, like snow wars, but... eh, it was fun.

Forgetting about the snow that already covered a part of her robes, she made another snowball and threw it at the boy, even though she was pretty much sure that it was not going to reach him. Her aim was... more than terrible.

Helena smiled at... the girl whose name she didn't know yet. "Nice to meet you too."

More people to throw at? Naaah. "It's fun this way, all against one," Helena said, grinning. It would've been a chaos if there was someone else on the boy's team.

Simon looked at the girls who were throwing the snowballs. "I'll tell you what I'll make it easier for you." Simon laughed as another snowball miss him by about a mile. "I'll stand still here and hopefully then one of you might be able to get me." Simon really wasn't sure if he didn't need to be standing right in front of them for them to hit him.

Aurora grinned and put her skills into practice. Having hundreds of cousins payed off in snowball fight practice. She scooped up two handfuls of snow and threw them as hard as she could at Simon.

"That's fine for me," Helena grinned, throwing another snowball at him. Nope, this one didn't quite go towards the Hufflepuff target, but she'll get better at this.... eventually.

And anyway, how could he talk like that to three Slytherin ladies? Hmph.

She threw another snowball, just for that last comment.

Fallon smiled at the girl as she finished packing another snowball. "I'm Fallon by the way." She'd said her name to the other girl already, but figured Helena might not have heard it.

Fallon rolled her eyes at Simon. "Not cool Simon. Not cool." So you know what she did? She ran up and shoved the snow in his face before running behind a tree for cover. That'll teach him for taking it easy.

Simon kept to his word he didn't move a muscle and soon he was covered in snow as not one but two snowballs hit him, in the chest, well at least they didn't hurt. "You just got lucky then." Simon laughed as he thought about something, he was sure that Slytherins couldn't throw great so how come she had hit him twice it had to be luck right.

Simon wasn't expecting Fallon to do what she did. "Just you wait Fallon, I'll get you yet." Simon laughed, he was going to wait until she came out from behind the tree though, then he was going to pounce on her and get her back.

"I don't believe in luck!" she yelled and threw another snowball then ran to hide behind a tree. Almost praying that he would follow her.

Helena smiled at Fallon, then... her eyes went a bit wide, as she ran towards the Hufflepuff boy, whose name seemed to be Simon, and shoved snow in his face. She couldn't help but laugh, after that.

And... while he was distracted, Helena tried to sneak behind him and throw some snow at him. Yes, she knew it was not fair, but she didn't care. And maybe with a bit of luck, the snow will actually reach him.

Simon decided he would just ignore the girls remark and wait for her to come out of the trees, then she would be sorry when he put snow in her hair, he was sure she wouldn't like that.

Simon ducked as he turned around and saw a snow ball reaching him. "Is this the best you can do." Simon laughed, "Well it's not very good is it." Though he had to admit he was going to have to keep an eye on his back just incase anyone came, running upto the girl he took a handfull of snow and splatted it on her hair before turned and running the other way.

Fallon started to make snowballs as she stood behind the tree. She was going to need to stock up on them if she had any plans of getting back to the other Snakes after what she just did to Simon. She peeked her head out...just to ascertain what was going on around her.

As soon as Simon saw Fallons head, he threw not one, not two, not three, not four, but five snowballs at her and he was hoping they would all hit but he wasn't sure it would serve her right if they did hit though, it was a snow ball fight not a snow fight.

The best she could do?

Uhh, how RUDE.

Helena made a couple of snowballs and threw them at Simon again, feeling a bit annoyed that every snowball seemed to avoid him. "How about you sit still?" She said, grinning. "It was your idea, after all."

Damn, he wasn't following, she retreated further so that she was just visible between two trees. "Come on, come on, come on." she whispered.

"Fallon!" she said in a stage whisper. "Get him between the trees. And stay hidden."

She aimed a handful of snow to hit Simon's leg and hid, hoping it would hit.

Fallon regretted sticking her head out as Simon launched tons of snow at her. They all hit her in the face which caused her to start laughing. A lot. There was no way he was going to get away with that. Fallon heard the other girls remarks. She'd already planned to stay behind the trees. She was going to cheat. Fallon pulled out her wand and made a lot more snowballs. She then fired them all using magic from her safe tree spot. However, she couldn't control them and had a feeling that they might hit the other snakes...

If she could just get him to come between the trees... but how. "Fallon, Helena, come here." she whispered, beckoning.

Helena watched as Fallon was apparently using magic to throw snowballs. Smart girl. But then... "Fallon!" She squealed, as she tried to avoid one of her snowballs. "Not here," the girl laughed, then quickly hid behind a tree.

Wherever Aurora was, anyway.

Oops. Fallon had almost hit one of the young Snakes. "Sorry Helena!" She then heard Aurora calling them over. Fallon decided this was the one and only time she'd listen to a student that was definitely younger than her. Oh well. This was a snowball fight and there were no rules about that. So Fallon hurried over to where the younger girls were standing.
