Audrey II, I mean, the Umbrella Vinora as well... Quote:
Hearing an odd rustling in the trees along the path, Sutton's head whipped around to look into wooded area. What was that? It wasn't like a scampering... It was more like a slither or like something being dragged. Then she saw a vine moving of its own accord, snaking its way between the trees. "Ed! Do you see that?" she asked, leaving his side and walking off the path, toward the moving vine... |

Plant.. Sutton.. Everyone near the plant.. Quote:
Her gaze was only for a second when she saw students looking at the plant and then Sutton moving towards it. "Sutton.. No get away from it.. That thing is dangerous, everyone stay away from it." She walked away from Ethan towards the plant and grabbed Sutton's arm. "Sutton come back this way. Guys get away from it, we need to get a professor here before it leaves." She looked at the students that gathered. |
Ed, Minnie, and the Plant Sutton was just about to reach out and touch the plant when Ed grabbed her arm. She turned her head over her shoulder to tell him off, but before she could, Minnie was there grabbing her other arm. What were they going to drag her away now? Sutton shook off their hands and listened as they both warned her against how dangerous the plant was. Seriously? It was a plant. How dangerous could it be? Her eyes turned toward Minnie as she said they needed to go get a professor before it left. "Well, if we want it to stay here, then we have to give it a reason to stay," she said quietly... before she jumped through the trees to the other side of the vine from where everyone else was. "Go get a professor! I'm the smallest, and I'm fast. I'll keep it's attention until you get back," she instructed as she pulled out her wand, ready to defend herself is she needed to. |

As Belle was looking around and admiring the beautiful spring day. "So what are your plans for the summer after term ends? Doing anything fun?" |
Ed, Sutton, the plant, and anyone else... Sketch book in hand Nell was heading out to the lake for a relaxation session. She was supposed to meet Ed later for a little date but for now it was good for some alone time. Walking steadily she came out onto the pathways and had to do a double take. There were several people standing around but all the red head could see was her boyfriend holding on to another girl. Not just any girl though...Sutton. "Ed! What in the blazes is going on here?!" Completely oblivious as to the danger behind her.... |
Ed..Ethan.. anyone.. Quote:
Minerva looked back at Ed, Ethan, and anyone else. "We need to get her out of here. I am not watching anyone else taken by this thing. We are way to close." She turned back to Sutton. Pulling out her wand to make sure she was ready for anything. "Sutton what's it going to be. You coming to safety on your own or do I need to bring you out forcefully?" |
Min, Sutton, Ed, Nell Ethan wrapped his fingers tightly around Minnie's as she got to her feet, his eyes locked on to hers as she froze staring at that plant. "I'd think that was a good idea," he began in response to her comment about cutting off a slice. "Except after seeing it take Burbage away, I'm afraid that would anger it.." And he didn't want to think about it coming after her. "I just think we should get away from it and find Bentley.. or the Headmistress." Because he heard that she knew a thing or two about plants too. And the n his head turned as Minerva was speaking to someone else.. Sutton, was it? What was that girl doing? Ethan's eyes widened in horror as the girl made her way towards the plant, to be bait herself or something. He was about to call to her when that older Puff, Ed, beat him to it.. Thankfully that boy had some sense about him. As Minnie tried to talk some sense into her friend, another voice made him turn.. this one he sort of knew.. "Nell," he called softly over to the girl, who was visibly angry, so as not to startle the plant with any loud noises. "We need to get inside.. we all do," he added, with a significant glance to the reckless Puff girl. He still had his wand elevated in his grip, but he wasn't chancing angering that plant and making anyone its next meal - not when that girl was so close. |
"Feed me, Seymour!" aka Everyone around the Plant Sutton looked around all of these idiots threatening to hex her. Had she not proved she was the best in their class at shield charms in Charms class earlier this year? Probably even better than some of the older kids. For some reason, it was one of those things she just did really well. She considered her options carefully... and then she got just distraction she needed. Nell showed up. While Ed was distracted by his girlfriend, Sutton cast several shield charms over herself so neither their spells nor them could get to her, and she ran further into the trees along the vine. "Go get a professor!" she yelled, pointing her wand right at the vine... and shooting a stinging hex at it. |
Everyone: Ed's with Sutton ^.^ Oh gosh. He knew that voice. Turning slightly, Ed saw Nell way too close to this thing for comfort and yelped at her. "Behind you, Nell!" Seriously, what was it with girls and getting into situations?! Especially girls who meant a lot to him! UGH. He glanced at Minnie who'd explained about a professor being taken and swallowed. Okay, so this thing ate people. At least if anyone was taken this time, it was likely to be him. He didn't want his girlfriend or sister to be taken. He moved back toward Sutton and found that something was preventing him from actually getting close to her. Ed turned to see her, but ran his hand through his hair frustratedly as she ran off again. "SUTTON ROSE JOSEPHINE PIATEK, YOU GET BACK HERE NOW." Yep, she'd got the FULL name treatment. Instinctively, he chased her and pulled out his own wand to protect her stupid hide. Nell could handle herself, and Ed had no doubts about it, Sutton on the other hand was still young and new to magic. |
Anger was all she could feel. This was the second time she had caught Sutton and Ed together and she was getting tired of it. He had explained their relationship but the fact that Sutton had kissed Isaac while he was still dating Amelia didn't set well with her. The girl was menace to couples. Ed's shouted warning froze her in place. Turning slowly she looked behind her and saw an enormous plant, apparently the one who had been eating everything and everyone! Fear shot through her and she backed up a step. Sutton apparently trying to offer herself up as bait and Edmund was chasing after her. Yanking out her wand she cast a shield charm around herself. "ED! COME BACK!" Why was it her boyfriend was always chasing after that dunderheaded girl! |

MEEEP! MEEP! Puffles bounced on his owners shoulder and began hiding behind her hair in fright when he saw a cat aproaching them. He hated those things and was highly terrified of them, but surely this cat could not touch him here. His owner would keep him safe, right? She better! The now shaking indigo ball of fluff tugged closer to his owner and with frightened eyes watched the cat and now girl standing by. It wasn't until Puffles hid behind her hair, that Nessie realised a cat was approaching. She knew he only did that when things scared him and as she looked up she wasn't surprised to see that it was a cat again after all. She didn't even understand why her little fellah found them so frightening. Okay maybe once, one almost ate him but not all of them were like that.This cat seemed real friendly in fact. The red head put her diary aside for a short moment and leaned her hand forward to pat the cat as a girl approached shortly after, apologizing." It's really alright, your cat doesn't seem like any harm." Nope, Puffles was just being a drama queen |
Suddenly the tendrils were yanked away from the pathways. |

Then Belle gave Ethan advice, "Well Ethan it depends, are you happier here at hogwarts with your girlfriend? Or do you want to go back to your hometown and start new? I think as a friend speaking, you should follow your dream. You might regret it sooner or later." |
Quote:
"Well, that's my problem, I'll miss everyone. Considering all my friends, except you, are younger than me." Damon sighed, "And I can always go to France after college, or transfer when Ari graduates." He sighed, trying to think about it. |
Right, well... that was anti-climactic. Just like that, the plant's long vines had been withdrawn from the trees near the pathways. Turning back to look at everyone, she put her hands on her hips and frowned at the crowd that had gathered. "See! You should have just gone and got a professor! It felt threatened and went away, and now someone will have to find it again." Sutton flipped her hair over her shoulder as she walked past Ed and eyed Nell warily. The girl did not seem impressed. Feeling suddenly uncomfortable that Nell was there, her eyes flickered to Ed and then to Minnie. "I... am going to go find Logan... I'll see you guys around, I guess..." she said sadly before she took back off down the path, her hands stuffed in her pockets. Sutton was starting to think that no one was ever going to respect her again... |

"I know you will miss your friends, but you gotta do what is best for your sake. Your friends will always be there for you through whatever. You can always go to France after college. You will always be led back to your hometown. But i am sure Ari will understand your choices and stick with you." Belle told him honestly. |
Things were over almost as quickly as they had begun. The plant that had been looming so menacingly was...well, gone. After a few moments Nell picked herself up off the ground with a slightly bruised tailbone, a majorly bruised pride, and an anger she didn't know she could muster. Sadness was swirled into that emotional morass but she was currently too bewildered to notice. Her temper jumped to the fore though as a certain female Hufflepuff scolded them all for frightening a PLANT of all things. Rounding on the third year Nell let her temper fly. "What in the world do you have to be angry about?! Your the one throwing yourself selfishly into danger! Did it ever occur to you that you might get someone ELSE hurt? That the guy who is now calling himself your brother might be killed because of your stupidity?! That other lives besides your own might be shattered because of some half shot heroics you might attempt?!" The thought of loosing Ed made her dizzy. Just thinking of him made her eyes jump to his face of there own accord. Sadness and hurt engulfed her, choked her. Nell had never been one to cry but here in this moment tears started to fall hard and fast. A heart wrenching sob burst from her throat that she tried to cover with her hand. Her eyes finally released Edmund to look around at the audience she now had to her meltdown. Embarrased and overwhelmed she did the only thing that she could under the circumstances. Her flight instinct kicked in.....and she ran. |
SPOILER!!: Quotes He heard the call from Nell, but had to ignore her to make sure Sutton was safe. Thankfully, the plant had enough sense to retract its nasty tendrils and leave them alone. Breathing a sigh of relief because now Nell and Sutton were safe, he put his wand away and crossed his arms at Sutton's reaction. "You're welcome." It wasn't like he'd just offered himself up instead of her. He shook his head at her walking off, but turned to Nell as she blew up at Sutton. His eyes were wide as she yelled about him nearly dying and looked at him. Bewildered by this outburst, he wasn't sure if he should hug her or comfort Sutton. And then Nell ran away taking her emotional meltdown and any kind of explanation with her. Ed gaped after her for a moment, but then looked back at Sutton. "I'll find you later, I swear." he promised, but then bolted after Nell to make sure she was okay. and hold her, he was definitely going to do that. He had never seen her that angry or emotional before. Ever. |
Sutton stopped a bit of a distance away when she heard Nell shouting at her, and she turned around to face her accuser. So, it was okay for someone strong and talented and good to sacrifice himself but not someone pathetic and useless like her? Right well that made a lot of sense. The pain that showed in her eyes, though, had been there before she ever looked around to look at Nell. Even as the girl ran away crying, Sutton didn't speak a word. Obviously, Ed needed to go after her. As he said he'd find her later, the tears finally came to her eyes, but she swallowed them down. "Don't bother, Ed. I think everyone's lives would be better if they stopped finding me..." And with that she left and didn't look back for anyone or anything, seeking the solitude that only her curtained bed in the dormitory would provide. |

"If I'd be in France, I don't want her here with no one that she can really go to who can console her or be there for her like I can and do. It's not what I want to do. But I don't want her to feel like she's alone just because I'm about a thousand miles away studying and not enough time to be here for her like she needs someone to be." Damon sighed, "She deserves more than that." That was probably the one crappy thing about dating someone younger than himself. He couldn't be there like she needed and he'd just feel guilty for it, even when they did get a chance to spend time together. |
