So she had already yelled to the PillowKace…he’d be here soon right? Even so she was going to make her planets. She did wonder if she could create planets by chucking them at eachother and BOOM ya know? So she'd try it...just for now.

One - two - THROW! She three the red and yellow bags into the air and aimed her wand at them. "BOMBARDA" well...not nothing. The walls, the floor, the ceiling, her hair...and everything around her was covered in a thick orangey-yellow powder. It looked like she had gone suntanning but they forgot to add the spray to the powder...and you know aimed it on her hair and clothing along with her skin.

The only expanse that had nothing on it was the wall directly behind her back...the shape of one mysteriously jumpy looking girl.

As Kace arrived at the Slytherin wall, he noticed Puck had a little incident. He couldn't help but burst out laughing. "PFFTTT HAHAHAHAHA! I see you got yourself into a little trouble there. Did you happen to go sun tanning?" he asked curiously. He couldn't stop chuckling and got his yellow bag out and made his planet. He jab his wand at the bag and said, "Fingere Elementi!" and then his planet was made. Now it was his turn to make the planet go on fire. He smirked and warned Puck, "You better stay back!" He didn't want his bestie to get hurt.

As he aimed his wand at his planet, he said the incantation, "INCENDIO!" and then in an instant his planet burst into flames and then ashes were seen on the floor. Well what was left of his planet sand and bag. "SHARK BAIT OMA HAH!" he called out.

There was definite glaring going on right now. Definite burning glars…and heeey “I think I should warn you that your planet is on fire” she pointed out and pointed toward his planet with her wand for a moment…she wasn’t going to put it out or anything…fire was kind of cool in the it could burn your face off kind of way. "And noooo I didn't get a tan if I did I'd try not to look like an oompa loompa." She sighed.

She did have to laugh when he mentioned the sharkbait bit....wait that'd be cool flooding the planet? And it would turn the floor into a slip and slide of colors! THAT'D BE AWESOME!

She grinned and took out her wand as well, "Fingere Elementi" she pointed and jabbed at her red bag and watched the planet form faster this time. "aguamenti maxima" she cast and watched as a large geyser of water like a fireman's hose burst from her wand and coated her planet...the water spilled and spilled and spiiillllled until the planet was no more than, well...floating residue in a pool of colorful water.

"hahaha, my shoes are wet" she laughed and grinned over to Kace..."I wonder if i'll leave colorful footprints around the school now well until they dry that is" she laughed again.

Kace's eyes went wide and he forgot to put out his planet. "Ohh merlin I forgot!" he said pointing his wand and said, "Aquamenti!" and then his planet went out. Whew! That was a close one. He chuckled she mentioned she didn't want to look like an oompa loompa. "Yeah I wouldn't want to look like those creatures either. They are kind of creepy. Never was a fan." He remember watching the movie when he was little but he never found it amazing. He thought the oompa loompa were creepy.

He saw her cast her charm and noticed the corridor was flooding. Oh man it was getting his shoes all wet. He chuckled with her when she mentioned her shoes were all wet. "Reallyyyy you don't say." he said sarcastically. He shrugged and didn't know if she would leave colorful footprints. "I'd say we go to another location so we won't have to clean this up.." he winked.

Puck didn’t want to have to move again, but her feet her poor feet! “They do sing funny songs though” she grinned at him as she glanced at the flooding floor around her. “Finite” okay, there her spell was oooover….but the water was well a puddle now.

He was sassing her she just knew it. That called for GLARES. “Yeah sounds like a plan” she grinned as she tried to hop across the puddle.

SPLASH the water sprayed everywhere as she landed in the middle of the puddle…and okay, fine, she wasn’t going to stay dry at all. Her socks looked like Joseph of the Technicolor Dream-Coat’s long lost foot warmers…because they probably didn’t have the words sock back then. She quickly followed Kace as they hurried away from the evidence her shoes squeaking as she walked.

After sorting things out in the library, Anastasia moved her group down to the dungeons. Brrr. It was chilly down here. Good thing she had this BAG on... random but warm bag.. she needed to give it back to who it belonged to.

But first, they had to find the BOOK. Annie stopped her group outside the Slytherin common room to make sure they were all still there. Then she looked at them.

"Have any of you SEEN the book down here? It glows, so if it's down here, we should be able to see it, right?" Since it was so DARK in the dungeons???

See, Zander was actually really excited about this searching for the book thing. Mostly because HE just knew that they had to go look around the defense classroom. The book had to be there because Professor Romanos hadn't been possessed yet and that had to mean something fishy was going on. Except.... When the Headmistress started making a list, well, Zander wasn't too excited about that because NO he already knew what he was going to do!! But either way, he walked up to the list anyways and luckily it didn't take long to find his own name because he was at the very top which meant lower floors which meant he could totally go down the route he wanted to... But uh, wait a minute.

Truebridge? AND Culloden?

Uh oh. He was with both the Headmistress AND the most intimidating man to ever walk the face of the Earth, ever. And they weren't even going to the first floor. But... Erm... At least he was with AJ... Wait no... That was Angel? Riiiight? Sometimes it was hard to tell. Whatever, Gryffindor power, yeah? And they had a Ravenclaw too.

But still. Culloden.

Keeping as much space between himself and the Potions man, he followed the group down to the.... Dungeons? Merlin, he had never wandered this far off before. Did this wall always exist here? And at the question he tilted his head a little, "I've never really been down here all that much," he replied dumbly. But if it glowed, like she said, they'd find it... Hopefully. "But I don't see anything yet," he thought out loud as he looked around the area. Nope, this place felt creepy and weird. Why would anyone wanna live in the dungeons? No wonder Culloden wanted to steal Zander's bed last term!! Who'd blame him?

Cosgrach was glad he was doing this with Annie. He was still FAR TOO SHAKEN to do it alone, and he felt more secure with her. He hadn't even acknowledged Zander's presence there yet - he was that confused. Still, his wand was in hand, and he was ready to catch that book.

"A few of the Slytherins were affected," he said to Annie, "so maybe it caught them here." Maybe. He looked around...

...and saw Zander.

See, if there was something that could bring him to himself, it was a good laugh, and Zander promised just that. There was one Gabriel too, and Cosgrach approved very much. The boy was an apt student. And Angel. Well. She was at least a Gryffindor.

Mhmm. Show yourself, book!

Unfortunately.....because the dungeons WERE dark and foreboding, Gabriel spent as little time in them as possible. See, he wasn't a lucky (OR BRAVE) person.....and it just seemed like something that would happen to him; getting himself mauled and then being left for dead. Remember that troll?! Logically, predators went after weaker targets first....and he was just such a target; being weak and quite unbrave. Not that he was too concerned at the current moment. Fumbling with his glasses in the darkness, Gabe regarded both accompanying adults.

Culloden, who was his favorite professor (and had not tried to kill him with perishables).....and the most intimidating woman he'd ever seen. THE Headmistress. He supposed that was a necessity for her job, though; running a school and everything that entailed. Despite the presence of girls, he actually felt okay....and very safe. Even his peers were Gryffindors. There was nothing bad about this situation.

Just location issues.

So, sure. No problems with being the resident Ravenclaw here.

As for their glowing book.....Gabe didn't see anything yet. In fact, survival instincts told him to cast LUMOS because it was so dark and visibility was minimal, but he also didn't want to pull any attention from the book if it was down this way.....

"Anytime I've seen it....it's, uh, been out on the grounds." Just to offer...but Gabe knew that didn't mean a thing. Apparently, it came and went as it wished.

........Hard to believe that book had been the cause for the amazing cosplay....

..........."We're not going to split up into a smaller group, are we?" Erm, just wondering....

Angel was a bit scared about being with The headmistress and the potions master but she was going to try and do her best to help everyone... she followed the rest of the people around and now she had to figure out what she has to do next.

Angel looked at them all. "It was in the Gryffindor Common Room once, so maybe it will show itself in another common room." Angel wasn't really sure about that but she would ask. She really hoped that everything would be cool and she was going to search for the book with everyone else.

Angel looked at them all. "It was in the Gryffindor Common Room once, so maybe it will show itself in another common room." Angel wasn't really sure about that but she would ask. She really hoped that everything would be cool and she was going to search for the book with everyone else.

"Two Gryffindors, a Ravenclaw, a former Slytherin and a Hufflepuff walk into a dungeon," the Headmistress mused aloud, "looking for a book..." Is that how this joke would end? Or would the Fairy Tale Book of Whatevers even reveal itself to them?

She glanced at the kids and then over to Culloden. "No, I don't see a need to split up right now," she answered the Claw, then nodded at Angel. "Do you all think we should be going into the Snake common roo----"

Whoaaaaaa, wait, what was that? "Did you see that?" the redhead squinted and moved forward, pointing at a glittering speck of light just around the corner. "I actually think the book might be down there!" Not down the way toward the common room, but toward the kitchens.

"Run ahead and check it out," she encouraged the Gryffindor Zander. "Go on, we're right behind you." She was in heels but she did light her wand to show her support.

Zander looked at Truebridge and tilted his head all the while. Clearly the Gryffindors were himself and Angel... The Ravenclaw was a clear one too (also thank Merlin for that one). And that just left Slytherin and Hufflepuff. Though Zander didn't actually know which was which, he definitely knew-- just unofficially. The Slytherin just had to be Culloden. Had to. Though, Zander hadn't really met any intimidating Hufflepuffs yet, so that was questionable. But Slytherin? It practically had the Potions Master written all over it. Definitely a slytherin.

But erm, if the Headmistress was trying to tell a joke... It wasn't very funny.

And even though Zander wanted to head up the search party to begin with, he was SO relieved that they weren't actually going to split up. That'd be bad. And just as Zander was about to reply to the Snake Common Room thing-- What in the name of Merlin was that glittery light? Truebridge must've seen it too because-- Wait a minute, HIM?!

Zander Adair? Go first?? HEY! How come they didn't make Culloden go first?! He was clearly the most obvious choice for the job. See they couldn't send the Headmistress 'cause Hogwarts would fall apart if anything happened to her. And then, Angel... Well she was still really little and it wasn't fair to send the youngest out there, probably laws against it or something. And that other kid, the Ravenclaw one, well he was a Ravenclaw for Merlin's sake!! Sending him first and risking his brain would be the worst move! And Zander, well... Uh.... For one, he hadn't done his Arithmancy homework so you know, that'd hardly be fair and if he died then what would Kevin do!? He needed the good influence that Zander provided as a friend, you know?

Clearly Culloden was the one. They could always replace him anyways. Sure Sophie Brown probably wouldn't even mind taking over the class to teach it herself. Or even her 'Toberson'. He'd probably jump on the opportunity. Mhm. So how come HE was the one to go first? HUH? "I-uh-Okay," he couldn't deny her request though. It was kind of hard to. There was something kind of demanding about her non-demanding tone, you know? It was weird.

And so, Zander began to follow the little glittery light and even broke out into a run when he noticed it even more clearly.

Angel smiled at the Headmistress as she started to make a joke... she thought it was funny but she wasn't saying anything about it... so she just stood there with the Professor and listened to her speak.

Angel was about to reply to the headmistress when she said about the common room when suddenly she heard something and so did the Headmistress because she was asking a student to go first... see the headmistress was smart because if anything happened they would need the headmistress to help them later right and that was probably what the head was thinking though she wasn't sure.

Angel decided that she would follow the other Gryffindor after a few minutes... she didn't want to meet anything scary like the troll that had interrupted the potion class.

See, the joke wasn't funny but very good: They had two 'dorks, that would DEFINITELY sacrifice themselves for the rest of the three people here. That was pure Gryffindor logic. So, Cosgrach wasn't even surprised when Annie told Zander to go check the glowing (which he still failed to see, but that was probably because he had conveniently put Zander's body between any threat and himself) AND the boy willingly complied. The man counted to three in his mind - three seconds to see if something was attacking Zander, before he followed the group.

See, he didn't plan to die for this school anytime soon.
