If you're aiming to be the first to Hogwarts, board the train at the front. Mind your step and take small children by the hand. Kiss your Ma and your Pa, get the last jab in at your younger siblings, but don't dally!
The Hogwarts Express will be pulling out soon, headed to Hogwarts for another magical year. You may RP your character boarding the train here, saying their goodbyes, and meeting new Hogwarts students.
Wandering, wandering. Ezzi was hopelessly roaming with his iPod at hand and Bugaboo on shoulder. It was quite sad to say it, but he knew no one. Miss Priss Elliot was about it. He wasn't off to a good start of the year.
Ezra paused in the middle of the walkway to change the song on his iPod, luggage stopping short behind him. It'll be a little while before the train comes along.

Chewing on those jelly like things that kept changing it's flavor, Nathan was walking toward the cart to load in his and Delphie's luggage - when he saw someone he had come to know a lot for the past few summers.
"Ezra!" he called, hoping to get the kid's attention - what with him and his ipod.

"Ezra!" he called, hoping to get the kid's attention - what with him and his ipod.
"I met you in a real dark place, but don't know if you're coming or going.." Ezra was singing to himself, shuffling through his ipod to the White Arrows. Mellow tunes for a mellow soul. The corners of his eyes caught site of a flailer. Ezzi took a quick glance up to the boy, he was trying to someone's attention. Ezra being oblivious, he shook it off like it wasn't for him since he didn't know too many students.
But the guy was still flailing. Ezzi pulled out an earpiece, and his name automatically called out to him. So this guy was trying to get his attention. Eyebrows perked up in curiosity as he strolled towards the guy with his luggage trailing behind him.
Double-check! This guy wasn't an unfamiliar, this was family! "Nate?" Australian accent dripped off his tongue. "Is that you, mate?" Ezra was pacing himself.

Nathan smiled when Ezra finally turned to him. "Yes, it is" he nodded.
Nathan was particularly fond of this cousin of his. Seeing as - Ezra's family was the reason, Nathan was at Hogwarts. Learning magic and getting to know about his mother's heritage.
"How have you been?" Liking all this so far?" he asked, the younger one.

At least patrolling the train corridors to keep an eye on this group could be an excuse for her not staying in the prefects' compartment because, well, Kurumi had the burnt cookie feeling she wasn't going to want to stay in there for too long.
Eyes back on Selina, Kurumi placed a hand on Selina's shoulder and patted it a few times somewhat awkwardly.
"Oh, sure. Climbing on the train while it's moving is way more dangerous than climbing it while it isn't," Genevieve agreed, giving the train a sideways look. She'd never really thought of the thing as a death trap, but considering the current apparent penchant for climbing... well. Prefects had their work cut out for them.
Thank Merlin she didn't have to do any of that silly nonsense.
"Have you lot considered tying up the first years for the trip down? I realize there are feeding and bathroom issues involved, but it would resolve the 'putting oneself into danger' question pretty thoroughly." She delivered the question with an entirely straight face, although it was laced with sarcasm.

Honestly she wasn't listening; she never listened to a lecture she deemed undeserved so instead she stared up at her and wait for her to be through before turning her attention to the others again.
She wouldn't argue with her because there was no point and she was clearly outnumbered but that didn't mean that she would be happy about it.
Then she heard a the newer girl asking who Archer was. She was about to relate the gripping story of the poor owl that nearly drew it's last breath at the hands of two dastardly felines but then the high-strung girl killed it by telling a lamer account of the event that would have done no one any justice! She nearly sighed at the injustice.
Then the red-head that had been the more violent of the two older kids spoke. Lex's eyes went wide as she looked over at her in shock. "Yo-you'd really hit one of us??" Why didn't she find that hard to believe?
She sighed when the girl gave them more flyers then sent them off to do her bidding. She grumbled a bit but tried to keep it to a minimum for fear that the girl would actually hit her! But then she relaxed when the first one told her no hitting; at least one of them was still thinking rationally!!!
She looked over at the newer girl to enter the conversation when she heard her say that heroism was not getting caught. She smiled. "Now that makes more sense." She liked this one; she made the most sense.
Yes, she thought so too. It did make sense. Genevieve caught the eye of the mutinous little firstie, winking at her when the girl perked up and smiled.
It was just being friendly, was all. Or maybe it was an invitation to find one Genevieve Branxton later and they could blow something up. And then NOT get caught.

Surely then that changed the rules, right? At least she hoped that Kurumi would see things that way because this one first year was REALLY starting to chip away at Selina's last nerve. Climbing on top of the train was just stupid and then the first year had the audacity to try and make it look like Selina and Kurumi were the bad guys. The girl had a lot of grit.
...oh no.
That was a characteristic of a Gryffindor. If all of these ickle firsties got into Gryffindor Selina would probably go into epileptic shock. It was not that she didn't ever wish people didn't get into any specific house, but it did mean that if these first years got into Gryffindor they were going to be the Gryffindor leaders responsibility. Luckily for Selina, she was only captain, which meant that she was only responsible for them if they were on the team. They would be Rumi and Gideon's problems.
Her attention was diverted from Kurumi when this new person spoke up. She addressed Kurumi first, but then Genevieve turned back to the sixth year. Her words, which to a normal person would have been rational, only seemed to make Selina somewhat upset. Handing out flyers was completely sane. Mortimer was a HIGH CLASS BEATER BAT! People would have wanted to steal him... So he could have been anywhere. With anyone! Anywhere!
However, then the girl started to make actual sense and help them find him. Right. This was the type of person that she needed to help find Mortimer. "Yeah, he does... He's got an engraving on the bottom of his hilt- says his name in gold. Also, he has a stripe of dark wood going down his side." HE WAS BEAUTIFUL!
Who was awkwardly patting her shoulder? Actually... It felt kind of nice.
There was no reasoning with someone when she was this distraught and caught up in her own panic spiral. Not that Genevieve had the patience or ability to reason with irrational people, but she could recognize that this Gideon and Selina's friend were both trying to calm her down. It wouldn't work.
No, the only way to beat crazy was to be crazy.
"If you don't mind my saying so... you have to offer a reward. Whoever took the bat has no reason to give it back if it is beautiful and wondrous as you say, and even if they were inclined to give it back, you are currently more terrifying than a rabid chimaera." And surely that sort of scary wasn't easily approachable for the faint of heart. Or for anyone who wanted to keep all of his or her limbs.

Finally she had met an older kid who didn't use abrasive language or yell like a madwoman for no reason. Jeez, why couldn't they all be like her. If they were then she could have grabbed Felix and gotten down without there being a problem. It was a good thing poor Archer didn't get a heart attack or something from all the unnecessary screaming.
Yup, this girl clearly had her head on straight--
Wait Whaaa?!O______________O
Tie them up?
It took an extra second for her to realize that the girl was only being sarcastic...okay so maybe she couldn't tell until the girl winked at her--but at least she could tell...eventually. She giggled. It was funny seeing someone other than her being sarcastic to the girls. The best part was that she looked to be around their age so she could have gotten away with it!! And now she knew that this girl at least had spunk; she would have to try running into her later on and since she planned to...
"I'm Alexa, by the way." She would have offered her her hand but one was holding the determined feline and the other, a stack of flyers so instead she just smiled.

Morgana raised her eyebrows and crossed her bare arms in front of her chest. She was a seventh year, not a firsty year! Did this kid really think he could SCARE her?! Sure, she was not muscualr, but she was willing to bet that her ponytail towered over this kid.
"Now I suppose you get lost before I make you. Trust me you don't wanna see me mad. Ask these two." He said pointing at Julliette and Ella. "I know squirt has seen me mad, but I'm not quite sure about Ella." He stated. "Also if I can handle an angry acromantula and a hungry chimaera I'm pretty sure I can handle you." He said giving the girl an evil eye.
Nathan smiled when Ezra finally turned to him. "Yes, it is" he nodded.
Nathan was particularly fond of this cousin of his. Seeing as - Ezra's family was the reason, Nathan was at Hogwarts. Learning magic and getting to know about his mother's heritage.
"How have you been?" Liking all this so far?" he asked, the younger one.
Yes, it was definitely his cousin. Man! Ezra mind was fluttering with old memories of the good 'ole days. He practically tackled the guy with a bear hug. "You don't know how happy I am to see you here! I knew you lived in England, But I would've never guessed we'd be going to the same school," Ezzi pulled back, giving Nathan a good pat on the shoulder.
Bugaboo fluttered off Ezzi's shoulder's and onto Nathan's, nudging on his neck. "And bugaboo missed you too," Ezra chuckled. "I've been doin' good. It's a different feeling being here, and I'm starting to enjoy it. Haven't met to many students, to be honest." But it was a start. "How have the years been treating you cousin? It's been awhile.."

Krys blinked slightly in surprise and grinned at Kennedy, "Thanks... I'm glad you think so." he said genuinely, patting Ken's shoulder. Yeah, Kennedy's opinion mattered to him, he wasn't sure exactly why.
He paused for a second, making sure he could still see Aurora, before turning back to Kennedy. "Thanks Ken. Really. For being around during the summer." he said, running a hand through his hair. "If you hadn't been there..." He trailed off. "Anyway, even after that... it's been good having you around." And probably good for Aurora too...
"Oh! And I got you something, for getting head boy..." Krys reached into his pocket and pulled out a little notebook, handing it over. "Because I never taught you how to make flowers sing." It was the notebook Krys had kept since he was seventeen and it was filled with silly charms and... other things that he'd used to get women to go out with him. "Use it wisely." It was kind of weird to part with it... but he couldn't think of a better person to give it to. "And whatever you do, don't tell any women about it. They don't seem to like the idea." he added with a wink. Speaking of women... where on earth was his fiancé..?
Kennedy nodded. It had been good staying at Krys and Yvonne's -- besides the bad that happened -- because he was away from all the family drama. Mostly, away from his mother whom was staying with the Baltazars. There had been that nice reunion where they told each other how they missed one another, but then...she dropped the B bomb. His mother had a boyfriend. That stirred something inside him and since every time they spoke they ended up arguing. It was like they couldn't ever get along like they used to.
Anyway, he was glad to not have dealt with that any longer. Now the question was, where was his true home...if he had any?
Snapping out of his thoughts, Kennedy turned to Krys and accepted the notebook. No freaking way! He was getting the Guy Book. Kennedy grinned and nodded. "I will," though he doubted he'd be needing it for any other girl/s. He had eyes for only just one. Still, this would come it handy to impress her. "Thanks, Krys--,"
Just then his cousin walked through the barrier.
Yvonne smoothed her hands over her dress as she made her way to Krys. Finally, she had managed to convince her father to go and take her sisters to their corresponding stations. The man had been stubborn to leave Kennedy's side, but he had his girls to tend to as well, so Yvonne promised to see the new Head Boy off.
She slid her arm around Krys and kissed his cheek then turned to Kennedy. "What's that you're holding?" Because she had not seen him with it earlier.
It's been a while since he's seen his son...since the idiot boy decided to run away. Classic. Just like him. This gave Phabian Wayne a certain amount of sick joy to know that his only son was a lot like him...even if the boy didn't know it. This is why his little brother has been trying to distant both of them, and he's failed. It was Kennedy that had succeed in staying away.
Phabian made his way through the barrier with Beverly in hand. As his son's sister she had the right to see him off as well as he. His son, Slytherin Head Boy, he had to see this.
"What a lovely reunion, isn't it?" he said, in a slow drawl and an insincere grin on his lips, as he approached the trio.

Ariella nodded in agreement with what else this girl had to say, "Yeah not much of a punishment but, I guess I really shouldn't be complaining then."
Staring at this girl for another moment Ari realized she didn't know her name, nor had she learned Ari's and decided now was a good time for introductions...
"I'm Ariella Day, but you can just call me Ari..."
Kurumi Hollingberry...she should've known. Was she head girl? Hopefully not. Maybe Louisa, the ravenclaw prefect, was! She was in her group at a book club meeting last year with another sixth year who was in Slytherin. Her name was Liesel, wasn't it? Anyways, Louisa would be soo much better than Kurumi. "Are you talking about Kurumi Hollingberry?" She asked, even though she was pretty sure she was right.
"I'm not saying you shouldn't. I'm just saying that the 'punishment' is kinda stupid and pointless," She said, shaking her head a bit. It's not like there's always gonna be flyers for everytime someone does something. It's like, oh you did something bad. Pass out these flyers for Selina Skylar's bat. Oh, you did something wrong. Pass out these flyers for Kimalia Fanster's lost broom. That doesn't happenen every day.
"Nice to meet you Ari! I'm Cardigan," She said, extending her hand. She seemed pretty interesting. After all, if someone's climbed up on top of the train, who knows what they'll do next?! Something exciting and interesting, that's for sure.
Kennedy nodded. It had been good staying at Krys and Yvonne's -- besides the bad that happened -- because he was away from all the family drama.

"What a lovely reunion, isn't it?" he said, in a slow drawl and an insincere grin on his lips, as he approached the trio.
Now, where was the little red head?
Krys nodded at Kennedy and was going to tell him which page to find the singing flower charm on when he noticed Yvonne come onto the platform. "Hello, beautiful." he said with a smile. She honestly looked a lot better, thank goodness. "It's nothing, honey." He kissed her quickly to distract her and looked over to Aurora again... was that her? Hmm... yeah. She was so conspicuous... Which was a blessing and a curse he supposed.
...
But it seemed it was a curse right now. Kryspin's wand shot to his hand the minute he saw Wayne's figure coming through the barrier and he had cast a silent charm in his sister's direction. Her hair would be dark brown now, inconspicuous. He turned back as Phabian approached them and conjured a string of daisy's to rest on Yvonne's head. He whispered in her ear as he put it on her, "Okay, I think you're better enough for this now, my love." Yep, she was better enough to stop Wayne from trying anything stupid...
Then he stood in front of the man. "What the hell do you think you're doing here?" he said, his wand still in his hand, resting lightly at his side. "You think you can try and kill my sister and get away with it?"Merlin, Aurora don't look now."Luckily, she's in Austria." he added with a glare. Seriously, if this guy moved an inch he would... urgh he didn't know.
Kurumi Hollingberry...she should've known. Was she head girl? Hopefully not. Maybe Louisa, the ravenclaw prefect, was! She was in her group at a book club meeting last year with another sixth year who was in Slytherin. Her name was Liesel, wasn't it? Anyways, Louisa would be soo much better than Kurumi.

Hmmm, that name did sound familiar...
"I think so," Ariella said with a thoughtful look on her face. Her eyebrows scrunched together in confusion, "I never actually got her name so I can't be sure, but your guess is as good as mine!"
"Your telling me!" She knew this whole thing was pointless, as did Dylan and Alexa, but it was nice to know that someone else thought so beside herself and her friends...
"Oh! That's a pretty name! Cardigan..." Ari tested that name out and liked it even more. She looked around for anyone else to give a flyer to but didn't really see anyone so she went back to her conversation, "So what year are you in, I mean your must be older than me!"
Laura looked at Ella and sighed as she continued to feel the tears coming down her cheeks. "I don't know." Laura sighed. "I think I do, but then it's not like I was when I found out I liked Oakey." Laura looked into her friends eyes. "It's different, he kissed me first and even though I could of stopped him I didn't." Laura really had no idea what to do, she was telling Oakey and hopefully he would forgive her and they could move on. "I know it better he finds out from me then from somone else, I just hope he understands I didn't mean too." Laura was trying to stop crying but was finding it hard. "I hope you right Ella." Laura gave her bestie a big hug/
Laura looked at this boy who came. "H.....hi.." Laura was still crying a bit but she was calming down, she didn't want this boy too know her private affairs. "I'm sorry but this isn't a good time at the minute." Laura took the flyer anyway. "But I'll come and find you later and you can tell me who has lost the bat." Laura gave the boy a weak smile and then turned back to Ella.
Dylan looked at this girl that seemed to be crying, he could tell that she was having a tough time. But still he needed to hand these flyers out, so he was pleased when the girl took one of the flyers from him. He nodded "Well the name is on the flyer but yeah .. ok that would work.. either way is ok" he said looking at her. Normally he wouldnt care for a crying girl since it is their problem, but with her being nice he didnt say much more "Well I guess I will be seeing you around then.. since you will be at Hogwarts I am sure" he assumed they would but wasnt too sure. If they werent well then he was wrong and at least he hadnt been too rude.. he then walked off to hand out some more of the flyers hoping that he wouldnt come across any more crying girls or coupley people.

As he was about to say something else one of the climbers coming ovewr to them. He grabbed a flyer and quickly examined it. "Ok a few things. One hi my name's Nate, what's yours? Two is it your first year going to Hogwarts. Three how are we suposed to know if it likes to be polished at 3 PM sharp. And four the year on this is off by ten because it's 2078. Sorry if that sounded rude." He replied to the kid.
Dylan looked at the boy as he grabbed the flyer, well he may have been older but no need to be like that.. but then again Dylan would have probably done the same. Ah so he wanted to know about Dylan now.. right "Er.. hi Nate.. my names Dylan, and yeah it is my first year going to Hogwarts. " well he did seem like an 11year old kid right? cause that would have been enough to tell this guy that he was. "Well I wouldn't know about the polishing bit or the year, I am just handing out these stupid flyers for some girl as part of my punishment.. so she would know about those points.. you would have to ask her really." he smiled as the boy apologised for being rude "Nah I would probably do the same if I were you" yeah he would, Dylan wouldn't want to be given flyers about some bat he hadnt seen and probably wouldnt see.
Krys nodded at Kennedy and was going to tell him which page to find the singing flower charm on when he noticed Yvonne come onto the platform. "Hello, beautiful." he said with a smile. She honestly looked a lot better, thank goodness. "It's nothing, honey." He kissed her quickly to distract her and looked over to Aurora again... was that her? Hmm... yeah. She was so conspicuous... Which was a blessing and a curse he supposed.
...
But it seemed it was a curse right now. Kryspin's wand shot to his hand the minute he saw Wayne's figure coming through the barrier and he had cast a silent charm in his sister's direction. Her hair would be dark brown now, inconspicuous. He turned back as Phabian approached them and conjured a string of daisy's to rest on Yvonne's head. He whispered in her ear as he put it on her, "Okay, I think you're better enough for this now, my love." Yep, she was better enough to stop Wayne from trying anything stupid...
Then he stood in front of the man. "What the hell do you think you're doing here?" he said, his wand still in his hand, resting lightly at his side. "You think you can try and kill my sister and get away with it?"Merlin, Aurora don't look now."Luckily, she's in Austria." he added with a glare. Seriously, if this guy moved an inch he would... urgh he didn't know.
"A notebook on..." thinks fast, Escalante, "on useful spells," Kennedy finished, tucking the small notebook away. He wasn't sure if Yvonne knew of this wicked cool book, so Kennedy wasn't sharing information on it. Heh.
Kennedy's head then jerked toward that cold voice he's grown familiar to, but he so, very briefly glanced at Aurora's direction. He wasn't sure if she should stay where she was or hide behind Krys. He wasn't completely familiar with his father's intentions, so he didn't know what to expect from him.
He moved to stand next to Yvonne. Ever since she got hurt, Kennedy has become a whole lot more protective of his cousin. It didn't matter if she was an Auror, he was still going to protect her.
Yvonne smiled up at Krys and was about to ask something else when he succeeded in distracting her with that kiss. Hmm. He always did that. Meh. What could be so important about that notebook anyway.
And just like that her mood changed as Phabian appeared.
Yvonne refrained from following Krys' gaze and instead followed along to whatever her fiance was up to. She grinned the type of grin that meant she was more than ready. Yvonne tapped the string of daisies and kissed his cheek. "Always have, my love." She was always ready, injured or not.
Then Krys was all riled up and she knew he had a reason to be, but they were in public. The last thing she wanted was for an outright duel to break out with children around. Yvonne took hold of Kryspin's free hand and squeezed it. This was not the time nor place to infuriate her uncle.
"It's just the family," she responded. "So, if you'll excuse us, we have to get Kennedy ready to board the train." She made to step forward, but Phabian was already standing there with Beverly. That was strange, the child should have heard Krys accuse her father of murder. Hmm. The Muffliato spell most likely.
Aha!
Phabian's eyes never quite left his son. They studied him to see his reaction, but it was the direction his eyes went that Phabian followed, not only that, but being a Legilimens always helped. So, that's where she was. Phabian didn't hide where he was looking at, he wanted Quinn to see that he knew his bratty sister was here. Right, like he'd believe she was in Austria. She'd be too much of an easy target if that was it.
He ignored whatever lovey dovey thing Quinn and his niece were up to. It was utterly sickening. He then glanced down at his daughter and grinned at her as she grinned up at him. He had cast the Muffliato spell around her. Phabian wasn't intending on Beverly knowing his doings...ever.
Phabian then looked up, meeting Quinn with an un-amused grin and stepped in front of them as Yvonne tried to excuse the lot. "I did no such thing. Might I remind you that it was my wife that went loopy and visited you at your flat," he said. "Though," he lowered his voice, a dark look flooding his expression, "your mother will pay for interfering with my son." And that was a promise. His wand flew to his hand as he pulled Beverly closer to him as he glanced in Aurora's direction.
Emmaleigh had made her way through the Kings Cross concourse, and pushed her way through the barrier to get onto platform. After moving her cart out of the way of the others coming through, she stopped and looked at the train. It had been way too long since she experienced the train ride, and now she would be riding it to Hogwarts for the last time. With a sigh, she pushed forward wondering how the year would go.
Toothless - Napoleon of Crime - Gryffinclaw - Owl Emissary - Pirate Auror - DoctorDonna
At least Kurumi was working with him to help try and keep Selina from going too nuts over the situation. Gideon almost wondered why she hadn't begged him to come to her to help look for the bat...that sounded like another of his girlfriend's ideas as if he could have had any better luck. His height wasn't going to be any benefit unless the bat was simply hidden up somewhere high just out of sight which didn't seem the case.
And the younger girls seemed to be handling their 'punishment.' Some complaining or questioning but they werent causing any more trouble which was certainly good. They didn't need drama before the term even began, here at the platform...on the train...or at the opening feast for that matter. That was until one went wide-eyed at the mention of violence.
"Nae...no hitting or other harm will happen," Gideon assured her with a small polite smile. No violence was needed and certainly not by a school leader. That was what the professor sometimes did in detention or so he was told, but the seventh year wasn't about to mention that aloud. He gave a quick look at Selina when she seemed to be tempted by that idea.
Down girl...
Genevieve joined in, asking Selina about Mortimer as if casing for details. Gideon was clear-thinking enough however to tell there was a hint of sarcasm in the other girls voice. But at least the patronizing of the redhead kept things more cool, calm and collected. If those terms could ever be attributed to the scene at large. "Nae...no tying up either," he remarked as that idea surfaced. As tempting as it might be it was a baaaaaad idea.
A reward...really...was that going to help things. Well they needed something.
Captain Skylar would be murder at try-outs and practices and games if he was still missing by then.
Ronnie smiled at him a little, hoping he wasn't taking this too hard. Poor guy was really going through a lot. . ."You guess?" she asked, a little confused. "Do you want to or not? If we're gonna be friends, I don't want it to be awkward around us or anything." she said with a frown. She'd absolutely hate that, Justin was a great friend and she wouldn't really love it if it was always awkward around them.
" Of course I still want to remain friends, Ronnie.... We've always been good frends even through all the awkwardness over the past few years..... No sense in any of that changing..." Justin said with a warmer smile. " You'll always mean alot to me...."
"A notebook on..." thinks fast, Escalante, "on useful spells," Kennedy finished, tucking the small notebook away. He wasn't sure if Yvonne knew of this wicked cool book, so Kennedy wasn't sharing information on it. Heh.
Kennedy's head then jerked toward that cold voice he's grown familiar to, but he so, very briefly glanced at Aurora's direction. He wasn't sure if she should stay where she was or hide behind Krys. He wasn't completely familiar with his father's intentions, so he didn't know what to expect from him.
He moved to stand next to Yvonne. Ever since she got hurt, Kennedy has become a whole lot more protective of his cousin. It didn't matter if she was an Auror, he was still going to protect her.
Yvonne smiled up at Krys and was about to ask something else when he succeeded in distracting her with that kiss. Hmm. He always did that. Meh. What could be so important about that notebook anyway.
And just like that her mood changed as Phabian appeared.
Yvonne refrained from following Krys' gaze and instead followed along to whatever her fiance was up to. She grinned the type of grin that meant she was more than ready. Yvonne tapped the string of daisies and kissed his cheek. "Always have, my love." She was always ready, injured or not.
Then Krys was all riled up and she knew he had a reason to be, but they were in public. The last thing she wanted was for an outright duel to break out with children around. Yvonne took hold of Kryspin's free hand and squeezed it. This was not the time nor place to infuriate her uncle.
"It's just the family," she responded. "So, if you'll excuse us, we have to get Kennedy ready to board the train." She made to step forward, but Phabian was already standing there with Beverly. That was strange, the child should have heard Krys accuse her father of murder. Hmm. The Muffliato spell most likely.
Aha!
Phabian's eyes never quite left his son. They studied him to see his reaction, but it was the direction his eyes went that Phabian followed, not only that, but being a Legilimens always helped. So, that's where she was. Phabian didn't hide where he was looking at, he wanted Quinn to see that he knew his bratty sister was here. Right, like he'd believe she was in Austria. She'd be too much of an easy target if that was it.
He ignored whatever lovey dovey thing Quinn and his niece were up to. It was utterly sickening. He then glanced down at his daughter and grinned at her as she grinned up at him. He had cast the Muffliato spell around her. Phabian wasn't intending on Beverly knowing his doings...ever.

Might I remind you that it was my wife that went loopy and visited you at your flat," he said. "Though," he lowered his voice, a dark look flooding his expression, "your mother will pay for interfering with my son." And that was a promise. His wand flew to his hand as he pulled Beverly closer to him as he glanced in Aurora's direction.
Useful spells, right. Krys nodded, "Yep, including some counter curses." he said, raising an eyebrow at him. Mhmm. He still wanted Kennedy to be able to fix the things he could cause, that hadn't changed... and it still worried him that the kid had used dark magic.
Always have... Krys just smiled weakly and shook his head a tiny bit, she really thought she could do anything... and that was something that Krys really admired, but he knew that sometimes she needed to learn to calm down or something.
The family... even in this situation Krys liked that. But he couldn't voice that right now... because he had to deal with the evil thing stood in front of him. "You gave her something. You really think that my family wouldn't recognise the side effects of a potion?" he hissed, not even looking at the child stood next to him. Even if she could hear, she deserved to know how evil her father was... "Funny, I think she'd say the exact same thing about you." Because even in his mother's twisted, evil mind, Krys knew that she cared about her children. He noticed the wand movement out of the corner of his eye and laughed softly. "You're honestly thinking of trying something here?"
Aurora was sat on her trunk, staring at the train tracks and waiting. She just wanted to get out of London now... she didn't like being so smothered by her brother. She glanced up slightly as she felt a tingle in her scalp... what? Had someone dropped something on her..? No... it felt like that hair colour spell they'd learned last year... or maybe it was the year before... she couldn't remember. She teased a curl from the ribbon tying it back and lifted it to her eyes... her hair was dark?! Urgh. Who the hell had changed her hair colour..? She looked up, a scowl on her face. Whoever it was had better lift the charm right this minute or else there would be some serious poisoning going on.
She stood up on her trunk to look around... then she caught sight of her brother and... what? So that was why her hair was dark... she jumped down from her trunk and ducked behind a pillar, her heart rate already high. Oh Merlin what was he doing here..? She took her wand out and held tight, peering slowly around at them...

Dylan walked around looking for people to give this flyer to as part of his punishment, he saw a boy and a girl being all yucky and lovey.. he was never going to get a girlfriend. He had to disturb them even if it was just for a moment, he walked upto them "Excuse me, here is a flyer for a missing beater's bat. If you find it contact this girl.. her name is.." he looked at the flyer as he read through it to find the girl's name.. there! Sel..Selina Sky..lar "Selina Skylar. Thanks. keep the flyer" he said to both of them smiling
Text Cut: Ronnie and Justin
He then saw another boy and girl talking, geez what was with all these coupley people. It wasnt even Valentine's day and already the world was overrun with couples.. urgh. He went upto them as well, he needed to hand out as many flyers as he could as part of his punishment which he still believed that they shouldnt have been given. But whatever he had to do it now, he walked upto them.. they didnt look too happy with each other.. oh wells not Dylan's problem. "Hi.. here is a flyer.. for a missing beater's bat.. if found contact the girl called.. what-was-her-name" he looked back at the flyer.. thats-it.. Selina Skylar "Selina Skylar." he smiled as he handed them each a flyer.. well he had to smile they were going to see each other around school of course
Dylan then continued walking when he noticed a group of students.. well at least they were not being all lovey and coupley.. he had seen enough for one day.. now to give out more flyers as part of his punishment. "Hi.. here is a flyer for each of you.. for a missing beater's bat.. if you find it then contact the girl who is named on the flyer.. er.. Selina Skylar I think it was" he said handing the flyer to everyone who was here "Well you all got a flyer? yeah?" he asked them smiling.. well these lot werent that older.. maybe a few years older. He then looked for some more people to hand out the flyer to, he still didnt understand why they were being punished.
Justin took the flyer from the little first year and scanned it. " Right...
I'll let her know if I find it... Alright? " he answered with a bit of irritation having been interrupted by the rude little bugger.
Useful spells, right. Krys nodded, "Yep, including some counter curses." he said, raising an eyebrow at him. Mhmm. He still wanted Kennedy to be able to fix the things he could cause, that hadn't changed... and it still worried him that the kid had used dark magic.

Kennedy nodded and held himself from rolling his eyes at Kryspin. Couldn't he let go of that? It had been one time that he's used that curse and it was only because it was a life and death situation. And things had not turned out that bad because of it.
The seventeen year old turned his full attention on his father and watched him closely. He wouldn't dare do anything right now, would he? No, he wouldn't. Beverly was here and her presence always seems to hold him back. Then again, Kennedy never knew his father was capable of killing someone.
A sudden memory attacked Kennedy as his father's eyes bored on him. It was of him passing the barrier and seeing Aurora walk off. Oh crud. "He knows...he knows she's here," he whispered to Yvonne and Kryspin.
Yvonne huffed at Phabian. Really? they knew it was him who sent Victoria to their flat. Her aunt would never just drop by to visit. The woman was all about organization and timing to do that.
"Stop with your lying, Wayne," Yvonne said, irritated. She was sure everything he's ever said was a lie, though it still sort of stung because she had looked up to him at one point in her life.
She noticed his wand hand move and pulled Kennedy behind her. Even if they kid thought he could take his own father, he couldn't. Phabian was a much older and experienced wizard than he was.
He knew his family would know about potions, Ciara at least, but that didn't bother him. At the end there was nothing he could be blamed for because everything incriminated his wife. "My wife enjoys toying with potions. I wouldn't doubt if she had been under the influence of one." Which she had been, and it had been under the influence of one of his newest inventions. He wouldn't say that out loud, though. Phabian didn't want to give them any proof worthy memory because he would NOT end up in Azkaban because of them.
"Oh, really?" he said, tauntingly. Where was Ciara anyway? "Where is Darling Ciara at, then? Great mother she is," he sneered. He would have expected much more of her, really.
Phabian shrugged. He's never been the kind to express his intentions. He preferred to see their surprised expressions instead.
Then he turned to face the trio, an almost proud glint in his eyes at Kennedy. His boy was clever and he needed him on his side. But there would be time for that later. He directed his gaze into the direction Kennedy's memory led him to just in time to see Aurora hide. "She should really learn how to hide better. She's worse than a Hufflepuff," he said, waving his wand lazily in her direction, but not doing anything just yet. Yes, Aurora. Phabian Wayne know you'r hiding behind that pillar.
Justin took the flyer from the little first year and scanned it. " Right...
I'll let her know if I find it... Alright? " he answered with a bit of irritation having been interrupted by the rude little bugger.
Dylan watched as the boy took the flyer from him and looked over it before talking to him again in a somewhat irritated tone. Jeez! he was only doing this as part of his punishment and he gets treated like this? There was no need for all of that! "Yeah you do that. At least you wont be bugging me about it" he said getting irritated too "Unlike some people" he mumbled. He dreaded to think what school would be like once he got there if he got punished for just climbing a train!

" So, who did you get into trouble with? " Justin asked the kiddie.... " You had to have done something wrong enough to be stuck handing these bloody flyers out. "
Kennedy nodded and held himself from rolling his eyes at Kryspin. Couldn't he let go of that? It had been one time that he's used that curse and it was only because it was a life and death situation. And things had not turned out that bad because of it.

She's worse than a Hufflepuff," he said, waving his wand lazily in her direction, but not doing anything just yet. Yes, Aurora. Phabian Wayne know you'r hiding behind that pillar.
Krys nodded, he knew that Wayne knew Aurora was here. It was a long shot trying to convince the man she'd actually gone to Austria... but anything was worth a try. "I'm pretty sure there's more evidence than necessary to send you down in some way, Wayne." he snarled, wanting nothing more than to curse the man to pulp. "And believe me, I will find it."
And then the man insulted her mother... urgh. No, Krys was not a fan of his mother in the slightest, but Wayne had no right... "At least she's been there for us our entire lives. No matter what scandal we have caused." Yes, he had brought up Kennedy. Too much? Maybe... But Krys didn't care. The man had almost - inadvertently, but that's not the point - killed the one woman he truly loved. And he had tried to kill his sister. But then...
She'd been watching. Oh yes... she'd been around for her daughter as much as possible lately. Hidden. And at that last comment she slipped silently behind Wayne and pointed her wand at him, letting the point of it touch his back but keeping the sight of it covered with her body. "Maybe she'll learn from her mother." she said, in reply to his comment about Hufflepuffs... "You know... you really should be more careful, Phabian." she muttered in his ear. "You've known me for thirty six years, do you really think I'd leave my daughter without my guard in this sort of situation?"
Ciara smirked to herself as the disillusionment charm faded away, "And you don't cover your tracks as much as you think." Oh she had tons of evidence to incriminate him. And the right amount of friends and money to keep herself free. "You're outnumbered, Wayne. I... brought a couple of friends." she whispered. "It was very foolish of you to engineer such an attack on my children... and think it would go unanswered."
" So, who did you get into trouble with? " Justin asked the kiddie.... " You had to have done something wrong enough to be stuck handing these bloody flyers out. "
This guy seemed to want to talk to Dylan now.. well might as well answer the question.. "Those two older girls.. the ones talking to that guy there." he looked at this guy.. done something wrong? of course not! if he had he would have admitted to it.. no! he was being wrongly punished for something he didnt know! Time to explain everything to him since he asked "I didn't do anything wrong! Me and a couple of my friends climbed the Express to save our pets, and next thing we know .. we have to hand out this.. stupid flyers out as punishment! Instead of being called heroes.. we are being punished!" he shook his head.. how were they supposed to know that pets were not allowed out of their cages? they only took them out cause they were not happy being confined.

Ronnie smiled. "Alright, good." she said, feeling a little more relieved. "You'll always mean a lot to me as well, Justin." she said with another smile. Phew! It was good to know he wasn't too mad about all this...she'd hate for him to be mad.

Ronnie looked at the boy and took the flyer, reading it over. Oh no, a missing beater's bat! That wasn't good. And it seemed like this girl really cared for it...she even had a name for it! She looked at the boy with a smile. "I'll keep my eye out for it." she said with a nod. She looked around at all the first years handing out flyers...that was some crazy stuff going on earlier. At least handing out flyers wasn't such a bad punishment...they didn't deserve something like that, it wasn't that big of a deal..was it? She wasn't sure, she hadn't been paying attention earlier to all what was going on.
"Hey," she said to the first year, deciding to figure out what happened. "What was all going on earlier?"
