Meghan walks up to Professor Bree's Room and knocks. She waits for someone to open the door.

Lee stood up and went to answer the door, he seen megan

"Is it for the study group?"

Meghan looked around nervously. "Um yup..."

Lee smiled and ushered her in, he closed the dorr behind her back and sat back down on his seat.

Meghan slowly sat down and took out her stuff.

"yes Professer."*nods and turns and heads for the door then disappears*

Being how Francis stepped out along with all the other students who had been inside (Lee and Meghan), she waited outside patiently. Fiddling with her hair, she looked at the other two curiously.

Serena opened the door. "Sorry for the inconvenience. I'm sorry I can't stay. See you later." she said as she left.

Francis nodded and walked inside.

Mithos walked to Professor Bree's Room and gently knocked on the door. He waited for someone to answer...

Francis opened the door and let Mithos come in. She then closed the door behind him.

"Thank you." He whispered to Francis. Than he walked inside and took a seat.

Ashlie nodded at Serena. "I would have figured so much," she said. Turning to the door, she raised her wand. "You don't mind, do you?" she asked Bree before placing a charm on it. No one outside the room would be able to hear them. Turning back to everyone else she gave a short nod.

"That was the first thing that I wanted to mention. Ron of the Gryffindor House has drowned today. I wasn't there to see, but my sister was, and I've too heard rumors. Before anyone starts anything, I'll just go out and tell exactly what's been said to have happened. No one killed him. The death was his alone. It seems that he went out to the middle of the lake, uncorked the boat, and allowed it to slip under. Suspiscions say that the Giant Squid pulled him under.

"Before we move on, I want to ensure that everyone's loyalty lies with SAMMO and us alone. This is for against the Ministry and the formation of our own alliance, our own friends, our own trust. Anyone who feels that they cannot be loyal to us alone must leave the room now. We trust you and must know that we are not endangered.

"I hope not to sound paranoid, but it is fact that things can happen to us that are beyond our exact control. If, for some reason, you cannot do this, I will not question you. I will not make you feel horrible. But I cannot be in trouble for the lives of everyone else. This goes also for those who aren't sure if they should do this. I'm sure that if caught, the Ministry could do somethng horrible to us, even though we're not doing anything. Not really. So, if it should be that you're in this predicament, please speak now."

Francis raised her eyebrow, as the image of a boy willingly killing himself appeared. That certainly seemed bizarre. Then looking at Ashlie she nodded. "You have my trust", she added with a smile. Francis wondered if Ashlie would implement the signature of loyalty or not with the Contract Spell.

ooc- Ashlie, I sent you a PM. You should really look at it. It's about the Fidelius Charm.

Lee's eyes widened he wasn't sure what to do, if he should stay, or if he should leave. He looked at Bree so that he could get some inspiration, all he needed was a nod or a head shake from her.

Meghan gasp and nodded. "Oh I cannot belive that happened..." She frowned and kept looking over to Lee suspiciously. She wanted to say something but kept it to herself.

Lee stood up

"I think is houdl leave, i am such a gossiper and wont be able to keep my mouth shut"

Le made up quickly

"I will elave"

Lee took his things, looked at professor Bree for a moment then left without another word.

Finding the door locked and muted, she removes all charms and walks in, apparently right in the middle.

"So, this is SAMMO eh?"

Pulling up a chair, she sits and then re-locks the door.

"This shall prove interesting. Miss Leiden will be on her way shortly, won't that be fun?"

Kay was, once again, late. Thankfully this was a good thing, because he had just pelted around the corner when he saw a woman he did not know enter the room he was headed to, and he was sure she was not about to...er..."tutor" the group. He skidded silently enough to a halt as the door closed, careful not to trip on his own feet, and ducked back around the corner out of sight. He paused, the expression on his face one of someone doing some very very quick thinking. Making up his mind, he scooted back the way he came, whilst pulling something from his pocket and holding it to his mouth, as if he was about to gag into it.

Francis, whose finger was fidgeting with her Arithmancy book, looked up as she saw a Ministry Official appear.. few seconds after Lee ran away. This certainly didn't look advantageous at all. Lazily flipping through her book, she looked up as Miss Shwmae spoke. Smiling weakly, she gazed upon her with curiosity, wondering how she knew they were SAMMO.

Thinking on her feet, she gathered by the fact that she was there that Lee had indeed betrayed them. How much he had told however, was an interesting puzzlement. Guessing that she didn't know much, since she had tried a very direct approach, Francis decided that going through the **We gather information to determine if the ministry wants what is best for Hogwarts and its students would work best.**

Sitting up casually at the mention of Miss Leiden, she took out her quill and parchment. "Oh, this will definetely fit greatly with today's discussion", she smiled.

ooc edited part added: we're 'claws! lol, we won't go down that easily!!

When Meghan heard the sound of Ms. Shwmae's voice she tensed up. She looked up from her parchment and quill and gave Ms. Shwmae a fake warm smile and nodded to what Francis said. She then turned the page on her Arithmancy book.

Ashlie smiled most amiably. "Oh, hullo there," she said. Her voice was neither too friendly or too shrill. Just natural. "I see you've heard of our Study Group?" She smiled and motioned to everyone. "Sit, sit," she said with a smile. "We're working on Arithmancy today. We were hoping to go over some of the things we've previously learned. You're familiar with the number-letter chart, aren't you?"

She maintained a friendly, amiable front. One that betrayed nothing of the group. SAMMO could easily have been named for a pet Ashlie once had. In her mind, though, a torment of thoughts ran. Especially of Lee. And how quickly the Ministry Official had appeared.

"You heard of the Gryffindor, right? The one who drowned just recently?"

Francis looked intently at the Ministry Official with a smile. She didn't want to miss a movement. Any movement from her part would give away anything, and that anything they could use.

Smiling, she nodded, and awaited a response. It was true that SAMMO was only founded with the purpose of information. It wasn't founded against anyone, just for the betterment of the student body and the whole. It seemed to Francis, that the Ministry had been barking at the wrong tree. When they could have been going against the rebellious teenagers. This only meant, that their information was severely limited.. Or that they had just begun their movements.

Regardless, SAMMO was a perfectly legal student study group that seeked information. It was no threat to the Ministry. And because of the Ministers' appearances, it only seeked to gain advantage over them.

OOC ~ may i just say use are fighting this extremelly well, i must admit Lee did over exagarate a bit on what SAMMO was, but however he he Shwmae will have her way with you once and for all muwhahahaha she's no fool, i know from experience. And use all have suspicions about me hmph how cheeky lol
