    Default ^*~ Aortas Auror Academy (STARTS!!! LSUs Welcome!) ~*^ [A Harry Potter RPG]

    Kazumi Nishida - Guivre

    The journey to Aortas was long and mostly uneventful, if you count the fact that I was sat next to Dixyn and I got changed into my robes.
    "Woo! Looks like we're here then..."
    I trailed off as the train came to a halt.
    "First years over here please...First years please..."
    A tall man was stood in front of a load of boats, which were floating on the shimmering water.
    "Just like Hogwarts, look," I whispered to Dixyn.
    We clambered aboard the nearest one and skimmed over to the other side of the lake.
    "Right now, follow me first years!"
    We walked into what could only be described as being exactly like Hogwarts, but much much bigger and more decorative.
    A wizard went up and placed a shell onto a stool at the front of the Hall, then tapped it with their wand. A strangely soothing noise was heard, calming every nerve in my shaking body.
    What looked like the Headmaster stood up.
    "My name is Professor Aquila and as headmaster of Aortas Auror Academy, I sincerely welcome all first years to our family. In a few moments you will be appraoch the Sorting Shell and place it to your ear. Then, you will be sorted into one of the four houses which you will remain in for the rest of you school life here. Again, enjoy yourself at Aortas and remember to learn something too," he said before sitting down.
    A list of names was brought out, and was read. As each new pupil heard his or her name, they went up to the stool, picked up the shell, before being sorted into their new house.
    Then came my name.
    I stood up shakily, and took the long walk up to the shell. Sat down on the stool, I placed the shell to my ear.
    Hmm...tricky...but it'd have to be...
    "Guivre!"
    I had stood up as soon as my new house had been shouted across the Great Hall. A smattering of applause was coming from the table nearest to my left, I guessed it was my house table and began to walk over to it. Sitting down, I was horrified when I heard Dixyn being called into Endriago. I changed my hair colour from it's usual reddish-brown into a blue-black, and my eyes to icy blue to suit my mood. I picked up my knife and fork, and started to eat in silence.

    Shilan- Torignis
    ------------------------
    The long train ride was uneventful, except for a couple times Akina and Sheila broke into feirce arguments about seemingly nothing. Shilan didn't know whether to cringe away or laugh out loud. He did nothing. As they say, Hell hath no fury like a woman's scorn. Shilan noticed something strange about Akina, the wings on her head... But he couldn't place what she was, and so forgot about it.
    As the train came to a halt, Shilan transfigured Khayame and his cage into a bracelet so he could carry them easier, then left the train, hearing a voice say "First years over here please,". He walked toward it. He found it weird, being used to hearing Hagrid saying that all the time. No matter, he climbed into a boat and it skimmed to the other side of the lake.
    Strangely, the castle looked a lot like Hogwarts. It was a bit bigger, and a lot more decorated, but still the same. Instead of bare stone walls, there were usually some strange designs or foreign carpets or something.
    "My name is Professor Aquila and as headmaster of Aortas Auror Academy, I sincerely welcome all first years to our family. In a few moments you will be appraoch the Sorting Shell and place it to your ear. Then, you will be sorted into one of the four houses which you will remain in for the rest of you school life here. Again, enjoy yourself at Aortas and remember to learn something too," he said before sitting down, gesturing toward a shell sitting on a chair. He looked around, seeing Akina nervously stuttering to Ajax. The Sheila girl was one of the first ones up, and she went to Torignis, as did Ajax later.
    "Shinomori, Shilan!"
    Shilan picked up the shell, feeling pretty nervous. His legs felt like jelly, he wondered vaguely how he was still standing. He put the shell up to his ear.
    Well this is an easy one the shell said quickly, before yelling out "Torignis!"
    Shilan shrugged, walking over to the Torignis table, taking a seat across from Ajax.

    OOC: I won't be able to post until Friday. Just consider me a NPC till then...

    Kevin Usagi(Endriago)
    --------------------------------

    The train ride was pleasant and uneventful,Except when Devil chewed on my trunk handle.The train ride was longer than Hogwarts,But when it stopped,I hopped out and smiled.We were almost at Aortas.I heard a voice saying"First years come over here please."I went over and climbed into a boat.The boat with other wizards floated across the lake.Devil looked at the lake until we got to the castle.The castle was a little bigger than Hogwarts.Once I entered,the Great Hall was bright.I stood with other wizards."My name is Professer Aquila and Headmaster of Aortas Auror Academy.I welcome all first years into our family.Soon, you will approach the sorting shell and place it in your ear.Then you'll be sorted into a house which you will remain in for the rest of your school life here.Enjoy your life at Aortas and remember to learn something too."After some wizards went,I heard someone say"Usagi,Kevin."I walked up to a stool and sat down.I placed the shell to my ear."Hmmm....Let me think....Endriago!" said the shell slowly.After a while,I found a seat at the Endriago table.Some kids said"Hello."I sat down and waited for the next person.

    Ajax Mostafa- Torignis
    ---------------------

    Only a few minutes after Akina and Sheila had returned, the Aortas train began to slow down and eventually come to a halt. We filed out, leaving our trunks and cages of hooting owls, hissing cats, purring puffskeins, and so on in the train; like Hogwarts, I assumed, your things must be brought up to your dormitory automatically. The sun was setting over the great towers and turrents of the castle, and it was getting dark by the time we had entered the school grounds. A familiar phrase, but not a familiar voice, rang out among the crowd.

    "First years! First years over here please!" we heard from somewhere among the sea of black robes, and we managed to make our way through the crowd and get to where the voice was coming from; the side of the lake, where a small fleet of small wooden boats awaited us. Akina, Sheila and I hopped into a boat by ourselves; we must have lost Shilan in the crowd. Sheila and I exchanged a brief grin; we had told each other that if there was a lake at Aortas, we would most certainly be exploring what lied beneath it; after all, we did know Mermish. As we neared the castle, it loomed over us, and the sky was now a clear twilight blue color, stars flickering on and off like candles. The boats came to a stop once we reached a cavern underneath the castle, and we hopped out and travelled up to two giant oak doors. As they opened, there were a few "ooos" and "ahhhs" from all around us; the castle resembled a very decorative Hogwarts. We were greeted outside another set of doors by another wizard, short yet cheerful, and they opened. We entered the new room; this had to be the Great Hall. There were for house tables, exactly like Hogwarts, and at the front end of the room sat the Aortas staff. Before anything had begun, an elderly wizard, whom sat in the middle of the staff table ("He must be the headmaster," Akina whispered) stood up.

    "My name is Professor Aquila and as headmaster of Aortas Auror Academy, I sincerely welcome all first years to our family. In a few moments you will be appraoch the Sorting Shell and place it to your ear. Then, you will be sorted into one of the four houses which you will remain in for the rest of you school life here. Again, enjoy yourself at Aortas and remember to learn something too. Thank you." As he sat down, a thundering applause came from all around the room, and we waited for what was to come.

    We stood in a huddled crowd in the center of the Hall, and the same short wizard who had greeted us was now bringing out a Chonk Shell on a stool. He tapped it with his wand, and it sang its own song, although I didn't pay much attention; I was too worried about whether or not Akina and I would be in the same house. We were called up one at a time in alphabetical order, and Sheila was the first one to be sorted. She nervously strode up to the stool and placed the shell over her head; in a few seconds, the Shell shouted sing-songingly, "Torignis!"

    There was a few seconds for applause, and Sheila sat down at the Torignis table, winking at the two of us. Other names were called...'Firness, Alec' also became a Torignis, aand other were called as well. At last, it was my turn.

    "Mostafa, Ajax." My name had been called, and I strode up to the small stool, where the shell was placed over my head. Much like the Sorting Hat, it spoke to me as well.

    "Ah, a very difficult choice. You have great bravery, no doubt, and your intelligence is one of your strongest points. However, among all, you are incredibly determined to succeed; you must be...'Torignis!'"

    The last word was announced to the entire hall, and I was relieved that it was over. There was some applause from the Torignis table, and I went and found a seat next to Sheila. Just then, it hit me. Akina still had to be sorted. What if she wasn't in my house? I panicked, and waited with baited breath as 'Nishida, Kazumi' became a Guivre, and 'Shinomori, Shilan' became a Torignis as well, and he sat across from me, grinning. Finally, 'Tsuki, Akina Naomi' was called. I held my breath and crossed my fingers, but almost instantaneously the shell cried out, "Chifre!" to the entire hall. My heart sank; how could she have been put somewhere else? For a while, my mouth hung open in disbelief, but I joined in with the applause; after all, I knew if I tried I would be able to see her at meals and on weekends and such. Hopefully they had Double Classes, like in Hogwarts, and we would be together then. After the sorting was completed, the Shell was taken away, and the feast began. I couldn't really eat much; all I could think about was how Akina wasn't in my house. My dinner consisted of about a half a dozen flasks of pumpkin juice and some light conversation, and when the plates were cleared and everyone was heading up to bed, I hung back for a moment to talk to Akina, but found that she too had already gone to her dormitory. I caught up to the other members of the Torignis House, as we headed up to the Common Room. The Common Room was very cozy; the overstuffed armchairs and ottomans were made from the same fabric as the tablecloths and curtains; a diagonally checked pattern of scarlet red and bronzy orange, and it was very soft indeed.

    I dragged my feet up to the boys' dormitories, and on the first landing a plaque was attached to the door, reading 'First Years,' and listing the names of the 5 guys, one being myself, two being Alec and Shilan, and two more being people that I've never heard of; I opened the door, and found that I was the only one there. I picked a nice four poster in the middle of the room, and Ra, who was squawking angrily about being locked up for so long, was set loose, and he perched on top of the headboard of the bed. I pulled a Peppermint Humbug, which I had saved from dinner, and fed it to Pirro, so that we wouldn't feel the need to go looking around at night for food. I started to change, and after taking off my robes and putting on a pair of black shorts, I decided to stretch my wings for a minute or two. Soon, a huge pair of leathery black wings burst from my shoulder blades, and I started rubbing my shoulders; they were starting to really hurt for some reason. Just then, I heard the door open from behind me. 'Great,' I told myself sarcastically. 'Like I really want my roommates to know I'm a Veela right off the bat,'

    ---------------------

    OOC: After we finish off this day, shouldn't we wait a little for all of those who are on vacation or away for a while to come back and catch up?

    When Akina and I got back, Ajax was there, along with another boy with messy black hair, who just stared at us for a little while. Shortly after, we arrived at Aorta's. The first years were called to a special area, where we boarded boats to be taken across the lake. Akina, Ajax, and I hopped into a boat; that Shilan boy wasn't with us, I was kinda glad, he was sorta freaking me out. I smiled when I found out the fact that there was a lake. Ajax and I knew Mermish, it would be interesting to see what dwelled on the lakefloor.

    When we reached the Aortas castle, I thought it was Hogwarts. It looked just like it, only bigger with some more embellishments. The first years waited in the great hall to be sorted,

    "My name is Professor Aquila and as headmaster of Aortas Auror Academy, I sincerely welcome all first years to our family. In a few moments you will be appraoch the Sorting Shell and place it to your ear. Then, you will be sorted into one of the four houses which you will remain in for the rest of you school life here. Again, enjoy yourself at Aortas and remember to learn something too. Thank you," he said, and everyone appluaded. Then he took an enchanted seashell and tapped it with his wand. It burst to life, then ricited a poem like the Sorting hat. I then realized I didn't really care what house I was in, only that I was with my friends.

    My name was called first to be sorted. Oh, why did I have to be first? I slowly strode down the hall, and sat on the stool near the shell. "Hmm..hmmm," it said, looking me over. I saw it eyeing my braid. "Very pretty hair you have. Never seen a colour quite like it." I mouthed a 'thank you,' but no words came out. Finally, the shell sang "Toriginis!" Of course, I didn't yet know if this was good or bad.

    I waited while other people I didn't know were being sorted. Finally, the Professor said, "Mostafa, Ajax." My body went rigid, as I waiting for the darn shell to announce Ajax's house. "Torignis!" it screamed. I breathed a sigh of relief. He came and sat next to me. My mind wandered again. Not until the professor called, "Tsuki, Akina Naomi," did I became attentive again. After whispering some things to her, the shell said, "Chifre!" I smacked my head down on the table as a tear leaked from my eye. Why couldn't she be in Torignis? I was so sad, but I figured I could still see her on weekends. And at least on my friends was in my house.

    The last first year was sorted, and I began feasting, but didn't have much of an appetite. I went up to my dorm, then smiled because of a great idea I had.

    always think...

    Akina Naomi Tsuik [<Chifre>]
    -----------------------------------------

    I finished eating dinner, all alone, really..Since no one would want to eat with a "Freak"..anyway..

    My head wings flapped slowly in sadness, I looked at the Torignis Table, Looking for Ajax..He was next to Sheila..Sheila..

    After finishing the feast, which should've made me happy, got me depressed..I didn't feel like talking to Ajax before going to my dormintory..I did save some food for Chibi, the Puffskein Ajax gave me..

    We walked up to the Common room for Chifre, and it was decortated in a silver and blue cloth, The Laz-e-boy's, and couch's, even the Fireplace had a fire, brimming in energy.I walked up to the girl Dormintorys..A Plaque with the word, First Years, on it...with the names of 4 girls on it..There were 2 boys..

    I walked into it, and each bed was made, and at the end. was our trunks..I got Chibi out, and fed her the chicken I saved from dinner..I saved a lot of it, actually..I also took Yuru out, who cooed softly, then looking for Ra..

    Some of the Other Girls there stared in awe at Yuru, and started to converse about her as I took off my robe, and Placed Blue and Silver Slippers, Silver Pajama Pants, and a Tank Top of Blue..Pajama's..

    "I'll be taking Yuru.."I said to the girls, and Yuru came to my shoulder..and pecked as tears rolled down my face slowly..I went down to the common room, and sat on a Laz-e-boy, With my wings spread out, all 8 of them, 4 on each side, and my Head Wings, and My tears rolling off my face..I really longed for someone to talk to me, but if they did...It would probably be about my wings..


    "Stupid...wings.."I muttered to myself..

    Geez...you're taking this too fast Shelia Rae. You're not the only ones posting ya know. Other people need ta eat too you know.
    Give othe people a chance to post...

    Zane~Chifre

    The train slid to a stop and I got off, with Frost following me silently. I held Spirit's cage, knowing the luggage would be taken care of.
    " Let's go." I muttered.


    *

    After a while, I reached the Great Hall, I stood in the line to be sorted, noticing many go to Torginis.
    " Gee, great, I'll be in Torginis." I muttered as I moved up to next to be sorted. The one in front of me, Kevin Usagi went to Endriago, and I hoped I would be too. I stepped up and picked up the Sorting Shell, hoping to be in Engriago.
    "Endriago...Endriago.." I prayed. I was surprised to hear the shell speak.
    " Endriago? No...Guivre? No...CHIFRE!" The Shell cried. I went to the Chifre table, and silently ate the food for the feast...
    Stop trembling
    Open your eyes
    Release your own time! Shootin’ star going towards the future!
    Draw the arch of light
    You’ll reach it, if you keep believing
    When the voice that calls for you
    Bursts open in your heart
    Everything will start, Believer!

    <~>Ami Zeypher<~>[Chifre]
    I realized soon the train ride to Aortas was the most boring since I left Hogwarts....But I felt nervous of my house...I wondered what they were like..since I was a Ravenclaw in Hogwarts, and a Keeper in Quidditch. Sighing, I placed Selene in her cage, and followed the other first year students through the door into their 'Great Hall'. I listened through the shell's songs, and applauses....through many names, but I remained silent...a bad feeling hanging in my stomach. Elizabeth and Larien were in Endriago, but Zane went into Chifre. I listened carefully for my name.

    "Zeypher, Ami...." my name was called. I gulped my nervousness and strode towards this stool, in my black robes. I looked towards the shell...as it was placed on my head.

    'Ah...I see a great deal of intelligence...' it whispered, 'Chifre!'

    I heard a round of applause of my name, my heart pounding as I took a seat at the Chifre table. I looked up to see a banner in blue with a silver Unicorn...that was Chifre's symbol. I looked towards Zane, as he nodded me a congradulations. I nodded back, as I ate with wonder...I hope the classes were like at Hogwarts, too. I looked towards the end, a half-Angel was eating alone, I frowned...she must've known how I felt...being a Half-Vampire pushed me aside at Hogwarts, too. I ate a bit of chicken, not taking in much...
    ----------------------------------
    I walked into the common room of Chifre, feeling lonely as Zane walked into the boy's dorm. I gave Selene the bit of chicken I saved, which made her delighted. I looked at the plaque bearing the names of Chifre first-years, four of us were girls...as I stared depressingly at my name low at the bottom. I went into the girl's dorm, and changed into a pair of blue silk pajamas...printed with silver stars.

    "I'll be taking Yuki...." The Half-Angel girl said..and took Yuki to the common room. I sat on my bed, placing Selene on my lap, after removing her from the cage. I stroked her....she looked up boredly.

    "Oh Selene...would I be an outcast here, too...?" I asked her in a whisper tone...she whimpered a bit. as I placed her next to me...I felt like crying right now....as I sat there, depressed again.

    ...I'm not dead yet!

    Alec Firness

    "Firness...ALEC!" my name was called. The two people either side of me had to make way as I moved myself out of the seat. I laughed nervously.
    "Big for me age, yeh see," I whispered. I walked up to the top of the hall and the sorting shell was placed on my head. The shell mumbled for a couple of seconds then said,
    "Hmm...you aspire to help others by using your talents...such a hard choice...what will prevail...you must be TORIGNIS!"
    The Torignis table erupted as I wandered down, getting hearty slaps on the back. I took my place at the table then said hello to my fellow house members. I watched as Ajax went up and he was a Torignis too. He sat opposite me and I shook his hand. Then, while we were talking, we noticed a silence and we looked up. I recognised her immediately...poor Akina. She was sorted into Chifre, but no one applauded her...Ajax looked furious, and I couldn't blame him.

    After the meal, I carried my plus a couple of my new friends' bags up to the dormitory. The head of house was there to greet us and tell us that the statue of a phoenix outside the bookcase, which was actually the entrance to the Torignis wing, would open the door to the password 'Butterbeer'. I noticed the room I was in had the door slightly ajar, so I guessed someone was already in there. I backed into the room, dropped the luggage I was carrying and said goodbye to my new friends. I opened the door and stuck my head in, and there was Ajax, with two...wings? Veela-like wings? He managed to fold them back under his skin but he looked straight at me. I tried to look pleasantly surprised, then looked at the list of names. No one in this room was coming up yet so I quickly chucked my bags in and slammed the door shut. We both stared at each other for what seemed an eternity.
    "Well?" he asked. I jumped a bit.
    "Well what? I dinnae sae nuffin' tae well aboot," I shrugged. He was obviously a bit anxious to reveal my true reactions, but I had no idea what they were. I needed to understand.
    "Well, er, fine, erm, why dae yee 'ave wings, yeh'know, like a Veela?" I asked. He sighed, as if he had answered this a thousand times before.
    "Alright, I'm a half-veela?" he said. He waited for me to look horrified and repulsed.
    "Aye. And? What's wrong with that?" I asked. He looked at me, amazed.
    "What do you mean?" he asked.
    "Well, aye'm jist saying that I 'ave nothing against 'alf-breeds at all. Aye'm completely against racism against 'alf-breeds. It ruins the world. Yeh know aye'm good mates with Akina, and she can 'ardly hide a thing like that." I noticed he was about to speak. "And dinnae worry, I winnae go aroond telling everyone. I know yeh probably think yeh'd get a bad reaction. I know whit it feels like."
    He looked at me puzzled, then maybe a bit angry.
    "How would you know?"
    I smiled.
    "There is more tae me than meets the eye."


    ---

    OOC : I'd rather keep the fact Alec is part giant a secret from now on, although I will divulge it later in the story.

    Avyianne Tseuga - F - 1/2 Unicorn/Human

    **


    I remained slightly silent on the train, as Quin and Zephyr talked a lot, and I mostly listened. They were very fun to listen to... and often I found myself smiling at them, even though it was a half of a smile... a lot of other things were ebbing at the back of my mind. At one point, Zephyr spent a great deal of money on food for us... a lot of pumpkin juice, to which I quickly intervened.
    "What? No... i couldn't possibly accept-"
    "Look, I already bought it... so you might as well not let it go to waste." Zephyr said, smiling with a 'gotcha!' look, to which I decided he was right so I thus began to drink at eat what he bought for Quin and I. Smiling slightly, one subject of the conversation got to about wands... to which I actually told them that mine was rather strange being silver, and we then began to talk about 'abnormalties' around the world and what strange occurences had happened.

    Finally however, we arrived at Aortas. It was much like Hogwarts, to my surprise, for we got out and immediatly I heard some one calling our names for First Years. I quickly obliged, and followed Quin and Zephyr mostly because I didn't really know anyone else. They didn't seem to mind... or they didn't seem to notice, as I followed them until finally after are trip across a lake-like surface and into the school. The school-like castle was huge, much greater in both detail and massiveness compared to Hogwarts. As we first years walked to the hall where I assumed everyone at, I took notice of the walls. Each wall was made out of a grand color, with inner details and carvings ... which at first I thought perhaps told a story, and stopping for a moment I peered hard at the wall. The carvings were... moving?! Seemingly tellin g astory, as one particular carving had a phoenix and a unicorn, in a very great battle against a peticular large dragon. I watched as the Unicorn charged and the phoenix did too... until suddenly...

    "Excuse me Miss, but we wouldn't want you to fall behind the others, would we?"
    I looked up to see a particular short but yet, looming figure whom I presumed was a teacher. He seemed very interested in why I was staring at the walls, and I swallowed, seeing that the group had already moved into the hall.
    "Uhh... sorry, I was just-"
    "Looking at the wall, yes I know. Strang ehowver... most do not see interest in the wall unless the pictures are moving, and the carvings only move for certain students with a gift."
    I blinked...
    "A gift?"
    "Yes... but hurry up now and go inside, you wouldn't wan tot miss being sorted."
    "Yessir"
    I replied quickly, running swiftly to the main chamber... as everyone was beginning ot be seated, and the first years were being sorted.
    Quin went up, and he was suddenly announced..
    Endriago!
    I swallowed, as I watched later as Zephyr went up..
    Endriago!
    Cheers from that table ensued, as I gulped and secretly wondered what house I would be put into... I noticed that the masscots were quite elborate.

    But one of them worried me..

    The mascot for Chifre was a unicorn... most likely because those students were bright or smart in the ways of the mind and soul... unicorn traits of course, along with innocence. I swallowed... what if I was put in that house? I didn't know anyone... I wanted Endriago.. Quin and Zephyr were there, and I certainly didnt' want to fall behind.

    Tsuega, Avyianne!
    The voice of the shell suddenly erupted into the hall... and to me, it seemed louder called then anyone else's name. I quivered, as I saw Quin and Zephyr's eyes suddenly gazed at me, Quin's abnormally large as if something suddenly dawned on him. An abnormal hush seemed to settle around the tables... as I slowly stood up, feeling my face suddenly go cold as all I could hear was My heart beating very quickly in my chest. Most likely many of them had heard about the 'mysterious' death.. and heard in the Nightly or Daily Prophet about a Vincent Tsuega... my last name matched up, and in the Wizarding world, last names always meant same family.

    I stared at the floor as I approached the shell... and eager to block out the words and mumurs from all around myself, I quickly grabbed the shell and placed it to my ears.
    Silence ensued, and I was worried the shell was broke...until suddenly I heard it's whispers...

    ...... Oh my! A rare blood you have... a very dangerous blood you have. Many will be in search of your blood to be spilled, but do not be worried.. if you are placed in the proper house, you will be protected. now let's see... ah yes, your half blood of the Unicorn gives you a high intelligence, but I sense some wit with it as well... perhaps Chifre or Guivre would suit you? But you are hardworking with your work... so maybe even Torignis?

    I gulped, not knowing what house i wanted to be in... but I didn't want to be in Chifre, not with that Unicorn symbol.. it would only be a reminder..
    Ah, but wait. You have a great deal of courage and potential inside of you, just like your father had working for the Order.
    My eyes widened... how did a shell know all of this? Was it reading her mind?
    Yes... he gave his life, and that same blood of his wizard half runs through you... both of courage along with the aptitude of your mother. Yes....
    ENDRIAGO!

    After what seemed like an enternity, suddenly the shell boasted out that I was in Endriago. I quickly placed the shell down, as after a moment of delayed silence, the table of Endriago cheered. I quickly gazed down at the floor... not wanting to hear more mumors or see the eyes, so I quickly went to the table and sat down next to Quin and Zephyr. I stared at the sorting, hopefully avoiding any gazes... but as soon as it was done, we began to eat. No more weird glances ensued, as everyone happily at and began to talk... I felt a bit more releaved, for no one was bringing anything up and Quin and Zephyr seemed to not even have the faintest clue. Perhaps they didn't read the news...

    "This food is great... " I said, as suddenly a black, small fluff ball poked it's head out of my robe's neck. Zephyr spat out his food comically, as he gazed at the fluff ball with green eyes. It mewed softly, as I laughed and quickly, and secretly, snuck Youkai a bit of meat as it disappeared again.
    "Do you just... keep abnormally fluffy kittens in your robes all the time?" Zephyr asked, as I smiled.
    "Well... he's young and doesn't like to be alone. I couldn't leave him with all my luggage!"
    Quin smirked slightly, as we kept eating...
    Maybe this year wouldn't be so bad after all... although the words the shell had said to me still lingered...
    Many will be in search of your blood to be spilled,... I shuttered at that thought, but then suddenly I remembered...
    but do not be worried.. if you are placed in the proper house, you will be protected.
    I could only hope I was in the right house...

    "Stupid wings.."I kept muttering, with my eyes following the flames, which licked the walls with light and warmth.

    Yuru started to coo, and kept on flying into the walls, trying to make me laugh, which didn't work..Yuru flew to the dorm room in anger..Yells came, as Yuru started to pick at 2 girls hair..

    "It's ok if they don't accept me.."I said, laying back on the laz-e-boy. I planned to sleep in the common room tonite..Yuru flew back, and the girls dorm room was slamed shut..

    "I knew this was going to happen..."I muttered.."Just..why..Sheila has Ajax, I have nothing..No one to talk to.."

    OOC: What do you mean I have to 'take it easy'? I am no father along than any other characters, even with most of them. There are actually some people who are lagging, but that is not my problem. Some people were on the third day while I was only on my first, so that prompted to hurry it up a bit. Now I am even with all the other characters, other than the ones that are specifically lagging. So I do not understand what you mean. Please do not think that I am a bad RPer, because I am quite an expirenced one, in various styles of RPGs and RPing theories. I know I am not the only poster, then it would a *story,* not a *role playing game.* So once again, I don't know what you're talking about.

    At the end of this week, I am going on vacation, and won't be back for at least five days. In that time, I obviously won't be able to post. Won't that make you happy?

    always think...

    I kept forgetting to post...damn this Swiss cheese memory of mine! *hangs head in shame*

    Sheila, methinks you took that the wrong way, but if you're gonna start a flame war over it, PMs are the way to go

    Angelica Rose Fletcher, Chifre
    ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The train ride had been pretty much uneventful. Angelica had found an empty compartment, letting Chi out. She spent the ride with the little pup, then managed to persuade him back into the carrier.

    "I'll see you in a bit, Chi. We have to leave our stuff here."

    Chi yipped mournfully as Angelica joined the crowd of people already in the corridor of the train. She followed the rest of the first years all the way...

    And now stood in line with all the others, waiting for her Sorting. She watched everyone before her go up...and it didn't help that it was in alphabetical order, either, which meant that she was near the front of the line.

    "Fletcher, Angelica Rose."

    Angelica took a deep breath, steeling her nerves, then strode up and placed the shell on her ears.

    Silence, at first, then...

    Hmm...a Fletcher, huh? Let's hope you don't turn out like your uncle.

    Angelica wondered how it knew Uncle Mun...

    Oh, he's pretty famous in the wizarding world, even though he's never walked the corridors of this school. Anyways...I can see intelligence...bravery...a willingness to protect...all the qualities of your Animagus form...hmm...

    Angelica continued to wait. The shell seemed to be taunting her by deciding...the suspense was killing her...

    I know where to put you...

    "Chifre!"

    Her nervousness evaporated, leaving a blissful happiness in its place. Amid all the applause, she took an empty seat at the Chifre table, and proceeded to wait for everyone else to be sorted.

    She clapped loudly for Shade, even though he was Sorted into Guivre. The feast began just after the last Sorting...and Angelica enjoyed herself immensely, even sneaking a few pieces of meat into her pocket for Chi.

    OOC: Well, if you posted more DT 8, then you could catch up with Sheila and the rest of us --;


    Larien Moody - Endriago
    ---------------------
    Besides from buying a bottle of butterbear and a couple of Chocolate Frogs which hopped around our car for a while before Mac and Celeros pinned them down, nothing much happened. It was rather boring actually, kind of like the Hogwarts train. The ride was rather quick though and once it rolled to a stop, I sighed in relief. Elizabeth and I had a hard time convincing Mac and Celeros to stay on the train, for Mac because he was a hard dog to control and Celeros for not wanting to stay in the same room with Mac. It took us a while but in the end we both made them stay on the train and we rushed outside before getting on the last boat of the long fleet. After crossing the lake, we came up to the castle. In a long line, we all filed into the Great Hall, which looked like Hogwarts also but much bigger. I was a bit let down since I hoped it would be different in a sense. Even the ceiling was bewitched to look like the sky, just like Hogwarts. It had the nice familiarity to it. As the older students looked on, the headmaster stood up to address us.
    "My name is Professor Aquila and as headmaster of Aortas Auror Academy, I sincerely welcome all first years to our family. In a few moments you will be appraoch the Sorting Shell and place it to your ear. Then, you will be sorted into one of the four houses which you will remain in for the rest of you school life here. Again, enjoy yourself at Aortas and remember to learn something too."
    We all clapped politely before a shell was put on a stool in front of us. A bit odder than the Sorting Hat but the Sorting Shell had a nice ring to it. As the list went alphabetically, I waited as Elizabeth was sorted into Endriago and was greeted with much applause. It took another ten minutes before my name was called up.
    "Larien Moody."
    With my keen elf ears, I could hear some students whisper my last name, wondering if I was related to the famous Mad Eye Moody. Pulling back my hair to put behind my ears, I heard the whispers grow louder, the same people saying that I couldn't be related since I was an elf and he was a human. Of course they didn't know that I was a half breed and my dad was a muggle. I just rolled my eyes and sat down as I pressed the shell to my ear.
    "Oh yes, this will be hard. Smart, cunning and hardworking, all the qualities of the houses. But yet I see vast amounts of courage, highly typical of elves. You're definitely your mother's child.
    I blushed, which turned my whole face into a tomato as it called out my house.
    "Endriago!"
    I heard the whole house of Endriago cheer loudly as I strode over to sit next to Elizabeth. The rest of the sortings went quickly as a half angel went into Chifre, as well as Ami. I hoped she made some friends there. She seemed a bit withdrawn from everyone. After the shell was put away, the whole table produced vast amounts of food. I only realized then how hungry I was, since I only had chocolate frogs that afternoon. Digging in, I felt completely satisfied and the thoughts of playing Quidditch made me more excited to coming to this school. After we had our fill, I piled a stack of meat on a napkin for Celeros and follwed the rest of our house towards our common room. It was just like the Hogwarts' common rooms, but a lot more comfy. Celeros greeted me with a rub against my legs but smelled the meat instantly and jumped onto a table, where I placed it for him. Mac was there as well and slammed into Elizabeth in excitement. We both sat down in some plushy chairs and talked a while before we went off to sleep. It was a good night.

    Ajax Mostafa- Torignis
    ---------------------

    "Well, aye'm jist saying that I 'ave nothing against 'alf-breeds at all. Aye'm completely against racism against 'alf-breeds. It ruins the world. Yeh know aye'm good mates with Akina, and she can 'ardly hide a thing like that," Alec had told me; he was the one who had walked in on me while I was stretching my wings. I tried to interrupt, but he continued. "And dinnae worry, I winnae go aroond telling everyone. I know yeh probably think yeh'd get a bad reaction. I know whit it feels like."

    I was certainly taken aback by this statement. He didn't seem to have anything wrong with him. "How would you know?" I snapped, surprised by my own attitude. I felt my hands grow hot, but I contained my anger. Much to my surprise, however, Alec smiled.

    "There is more tae me than meets the eye," he told me. It then hit me; I was jumping down his throat about my own problems, when he too had experienced the same problems. My hands grew cold, but I felt my face get hot.

    "I...I'm so sorry...I didn't know...I mean, you don't..." I managed to get out; I was so embarrased.

    "Dinnae worry 'boot it," Alec told me, still smiling. I felt a little better knowing that he wasn't angry with me for getting so angry with him. I didn't know where to go from here, so I turned to a sure-fire way to ease the tension between us.

    "Hey, you want some butterbeer?" I asked him, as I strode over to my trunk and opened it up. I pointed my wand at a tankard of butterbeer. 'Wingardium Leviosa,' I said, and the tankard flew out of the trunk and onto the trunk's top, which was acting as a serrogate table. "I've got 10 tankards charmed to refill themselves here," I told him, and with another flick of my wand, five frosty mugs appeared next to the tankard, a few for the others, if they returned. I smiled at him. "Come on, drink up," I said him, already filling my own mug.

    Zephyr Remus Potter
    Endriago
    ------------------------------

    When the morning of the next day had arrived, Quin and I made our way to the Endriago common room and decided to look around before heading to the Great Hall for our breakfast. The common room was rather empty as it was still quite early. We found a small wooden door which was obscured by a translucent golden drape.

    "What's this?" I asked Quin as I reached for the door knob.
    Quin gave a small shrug and urged me to open it. Twisting the knob, I found that it was locked.
    "It's locked," I told Quin, adding a tiny hopeless shrug.
    Quin merely chuckled and replied, "Come, let me try."
    I stepped away from the door as Quin pulled out his wand and pointed it to the door knob and yelled, "Alohamora!"
    Just as he was reaching for the knob he added, "You're a wizard you know. Should learn to use magic more-" but stopped himself when he found the door still locked. He was determined to unlock it and continued using the Unlocking Charm on the door again and again. Finally, Quin gave up and turned to leave when we saw a small-built female prefect standing behind us.

    "Trying to get into the Sharing Room?" she asked.
    "Yeah," barked Quin, obviously frustrated from not being able to get in.
    "Sharing Room?" I repeated after her.
    "You can get in?" inquired Quin intently.
    "Sure. Let me show you." she replied, stepping up to the door.
    "Not many first years know about this. It's reall useful though." she continued. Tapping the knob with her wand she muttered, "Andorhalus!"
    Quin grabbed for the knob and twisted it. It was still locked. But the girl merely signalled to us and walked through the solid door.
    "What?" I gasped to Quin in amazement.
    "Cool!" he yelled in reply and stepped through.

    Following suit, I found myself at the foot of a long spiral staircase. We climbed up and up for what seemed like five minutes when we emerged through another door and into a large circular room. The room was very spacious and the ceiling was high. The most inviting feature of the room was that it was a perfect circle and floor to ceiling windows were all in front of us. To our sides were four other colored doors, a blue, orange, green one and the last one that was right in the center was wooden with no particular color but was taller than any of the other doors. The door we had just emerged from was gold and glinted in the morning sun. The windows let in all the sunlight and the circular room was brightly lit. Comfortable armchairs, couches and cushions lay scattered around the room.

    The girl turned to us and explained, "This is the Sharing Room, where students from different houses can meet up and basically hang out. Our founders never really believed in totally dividing and segregating the students. Though the Guivre students rarely come up here." she added with a wink. "To enter the room from our common room or vice-versa, you need to say the password and tap the door knob and just walk through. The center door there leads down to the Great Hall. Although I wouldn't recommend you taking it because it's a really long and winding staircase all the way down." she winked again. "Well it's rather early so you can see there's no one here. Just remember how to get in and try to spread it around the first years. I'll be leaving you two then. Goodbye" she said and tapped the door knob again and left.

    By the time we left the room and headed back to the Endriago common room, we met Avyianne who had just come down from the girls' dorms.
    He winked to her and said, "We've got something cool to show you during lunch."
    She gave us a look of excitement but Quin and I managed to persuade her to wait till lunch time to find out. We took a copy of our timetable and glanced through quickly.

    "We are going to have Defence Against the Dark Arts, Offence Magic, then lunch and Care of Magical Creatures for today." recited Avyianne as she looked through the timetable.
    "Cool! The lessons don't look that bad." I mumbled to the others as we made our way out of the common room and to the Great Hall.

    When we arrived in the Great Hall, it was packed and teeming with students from each house. We managed to get seats at the Endriago table and I began pigging out on the waffles and buns as usual. Quin and Avyianne ate much quieter than compared to me. Quin spread out the Daily Prophet he had ordered onto the table and drew our attention to the smaller headlines. It was the same one we had read back in Diagon alley.

    "That name sounds very familiar, Tseuga... I heard it recently..." I murmured to myself. Then it hit me. It was Avyianne's last name, but before I could stop myself, I blurted out the question.
    "Isn't that your last name, Avyianne?"
    Quin nudged me hard in the ribs and I noticed that I had put Avyianne into a hard spot. I repeatedly apologised and brushed off the matter. Before Avyianne could reply, I hauled up my books and grabbed Quin by the arm out of the Great hall with Avyianne jogging behind to keep pace.
    "I'm really sorry. Let's go to Defence of the Dark Arts class now.." I apologised.
    "Yeah, come." Quin added nervously.
    "Stop!" yelled Avyianne, sounding absolutly frustrated. We stop dead in our tracks and spun around to look at her.
    "Look-" she continued. "I... I..."
    I looked at her eagerly, hoping she would clear our doubts.


    OOC: I left the last part for you to continue, B4. It's up to you if you want Avyianne to reveal it to Quin and Zephyr.

    Heh, guess I'm one of the laggers! ^^; Ah well, I'll be caught up after this!


    ------------
    Elizabeth (Endriago)
    ------------

    After Larien, Ami, and Zane all stepped out the train, so did I. Mac sniffed the air, trying to get the feel of the place. I looked at the looming academy, feeling more than a bit nervous.

    When we all spotted the man calling for first years, it felt as if I were having a deja vu. It felt like being back at Hogwarts; when I first was arriving, feeling even more nervous that I was now. I had been so scared that day that nobody would like me, but after a while Hogwarts became like a second home to me.

    I smiled at the large, impressive castle, and tried my best to think of it as another Hogwarts. As we stepped into Aorta's Great Hall, I noticed the sorting being set up. "Wonder where it'll put me...?" I mumbled to myself. I hadn't really thought about it much in the past few days; but now it became my first worry.

    The sorting began, and all of us to be sorted looked nervously about ourselves. I thought of what house I would want to be in, and it was then I realized that I didn't know which house was which... Suddenly I heard a voice bellow, "Carrington, Elizabeth!" and I sighed. 'Why does my last name have to be so close to the beginning...' I sat under the hat, awaiting my fate. So, I see you're a very well-rounded individual... the hat spoke to me. 'Just put me in a house with nice people... people that respect other's differences...' I thought hard to the hat. I see... well, considering it does match were I was going to put you anyway... ENDRIAGO!

    I smiled, somehow feeling that the choice made would be a good one, and eagerly took my seat at the Endriago table. Soon I was joined by, to my great relief, Larien; and watched anxiously as Ami was sorted. However, she went into Chifre, and even though I wished she had been sorted into Endriago, I still felt happy for her. That boy that had been in the train with us, Zane, had also been sorted into Chifre, so at least Ami wasn't going to be alone.

    As we were led up to our Common Room, Larien and I met up with Mac and Celeros. "Ahh!" I yelled as Mac jumped all over me. "Geez Mac, watch it! Ribs can be broken!" I said as he licked my face. Larien greeted Celeros, and then the two of us laid down for some well-deserved rest. I laid in silence for a moment. 'Yes, I believe Aortas will be just as good as Hogwarts... maybe even better.'

    Avyianne Tseuga - F - 1/2 Human/Unicorn (Endriago)
    ***

    After eating, Avyianne walked up alone to her dormitory since Quin and Zephyr had gone before her. She eventually got inside the Endriago house, and then entered the girls half, and quickly claimed a bed. Youkai, her fuzzy kitten, seemed to adore the soft silky sheets as he plopped himself in the middle of her pillow and began to pur rather loudly. No sooner had Avyianne changed and went in her bed... did she hear the sounds of others sleeping, along with Youkai.
    But Avyianne did not sleep...
    Like usual, the dream of that horrible figure threatening her ensued her... like every single night since she found out she had a chance to be an Auror.
    And tha tdream was followed by the vision of how her father died...

    **
    Soon the new morning had arrived, and Avyianne quickly rose out of bed before anyone and got dressed and cleaned. Grabbing Youkai, she quickly tucked him inside her robe sleeve as she went into the mirror, pointed her wand at her head and muttered a few wizarding spells which instantly combed and brushed her hair,to make it look dazzlingly soft, silky and curl slightly inwards to her face. She then grabbed her books and papers, and went down to the commons where she ran into Quin and Zephyr. Eating insued... until suddenly Zephyr had recieved a paper of the Daily Prophet, and to the dismay o fAvyianne it still had the talka bout the death... it had beenthe first one in a while, and again, it had happened to some one in the Ministry... in a forest..

    Avyianne's heart had stopped beating when she heard Zephyr mumur some thing about her last name, and then he gazed at her and clearly with out a thought stated that it was her last name as well.
    Avyianne wanted to shrivel up and die... the thought of her father being the subject of the mysterious death and in that dreadful newspaper made her squirmish. She was about to say some ething when suddenly Zephyr stood up, grabbed Quin by the arm and hastily got out after he had repeatedly appologised and headed out. Startled, Avyianne quickly grabbed her books and leapt out of her seat, causing a container of some liquid to fall upon the floor but she ignored it and kept following them.
    They both seemed eager to leave her...

    They said they should go to the Defense Against Dark Arts class... and Quin said to come, frustrated Avyianne finally yelled.
    "STOP!"
    With that, both of them jerked to a horrible hault as they gazed at her with a rather twitchy and nervous glance- more so Zephyr than Quin.
    "Look... I-...I.."
    It was hard for Avyianne to say anything, she herself was in slight denial and she didn't want to believe it herself. Feeling her face become flushed and hot, she slowly gazed her frosty-kissed blue-eyed gaze at them. Sighing, she decided it was better to at least tell some one... and these two, she considered her friends.
    "Look, sorry for... well, there is no need for you two to be sorry."
    Avyianne had her fists clenched slightly, so she eased them up as she straightened up and looked at them.
    " Yes, Vincent Tseuga, the one you've heard in the paper... he is my relative." Quin and Zephyr seemed to nod, as Avyianne continued.
    "He is my father."
    This caught them slightly more offguard, as Avyianne continued..
    "That is the reason Quin caught me, or rather we bumped into each other in that dark alleyway... was because I was alone, and had no where to go so I decided to stay in Diagon. My mother died when I was very young, and we have no living relatives... "
    Quin nodded softly, but Zephyr spoke up..
    "So, who then is looking after you?"
    "Well... I am not allowed to talk about exactly 'who' is looking out for me... since I am guessing it is a group of people, but right now Mr. Lupin said he would visit me some time to talk to me... once I've calmed down or... rather got used the fact my family is no more."
    Both seemed squirmish at the last remark, but Avyianne didn't want them to feel awkward so quickly she smiled a rather fake but yet very believable smile as she tightly clutched her book...
    "But... forget it. Let's just go to class!"
    She hurriedly grabbed Zephyr and Quin by their robe sleeves and practically dragged them off in the correct direction...

    *sigh* I really feel like killing my brother right now...Sorry Shelia Rae, I wrote down my account password on a paper and he took it...the usual...My apologies. I guess he didn't like you much or something...and he wanted to join here but I wouldn't let him....really sorry about that. I'm fine with the way you're RPing, but it seems my brother doesn't. >_>;


    ~*~Zane~*~

    The next day arrived sooner then I thought, it seemed like a second before that it was the feast.
    " Whatever." I muttered and went down the stairs to the Chifre common room, hoping to find Ami. But she wasn't anywhere in the common room, so either she was sleeping or she was at breakfeast. Muttering, I left the common room for breakfeast, with my wand in hand.

    I ate my food silently, looking at the schedule.
    " I guess I better go for class now" I breathed. Leaving the Great Hall, I headed towards class.

    Didn't really know what to post...*doesn't know what class Zane should go to*
    Stop trembling
    Open your eyes
    Release your own time! Shootin’ star going towards the future!
    Draw the arch of light
    You’ll reach it, if you keep believing
    When the voice that calls for you
    Bursts open in your heart
    Everything will start, Believer!

    After eating,I walked around as we were led to our common room.
    I quickly walked to the boys half and gathered my things and claimed a bed quickly.I placed my things away and I decided to turn in.As I climbed in,Devil walked on my covers and started sleeping.I decided I could live with it.

    The next day,I woke up early and got dressed and ready.I walked to the common room and sat down.I stayed there a while and read a book.When I heard some more wizars coming,I got up and walked outside of the common room and decided to eat.I ate my food and walked toward the schedule.I walked to the next class,The Defence Against the Dark Arts.I saw some others walking there too.

    Akina Naomi Tsuki [<Chifre>]
    ---------------------------------------
    I watched the flames over and over, the flame tips dancing in the fire place made me all warm and happy again..My headwings started to flap with the warmth..

    "Accio Pillow!"The Pillow from the Laz-E-Boy flew over and I settled my self in about a 3 foot legnth away from the flames. I took a Drape from the couch("Accio Drape!"), and wrapped myself around in it. Chibi and Yuru came by my side, and BVoth fell asleep before me...

    "zzzzz"

    ~*Next Day*~

    "Ugh.."I said, getting up. I guess Yuru went to get the Daily Prophet, and Chibi was infront of me, trying to lick my face..signaling she was hungry..

    I Scooped Chibi up, and went up to the dormintory's, and got dressed, Placeing my Muggle clothing under my Robes. I decided if I was to hide my wings, I might be able to sit with someone, at the most.I then took the charm on the necklace dad gave me, and placed it on my neck. I got shoes on, got my books and wands all settled up..and headed for Breakfast. I decided to leave Chibi, I still had a load of Chicken, and some Beef Jerky from the train ride.

    I walked down, and this time, got some inviting looks from some other students..Hiding my wings did work..Though, I would never be able to hide my Headwings till I was older.

    I sat down, being one of the first Chifre's in the Great hall, and got some Bacon, French Toast, and a glass of Milk..I gave Egg's a evil stare, As because..They are 'uck.I sat in the middle of the table, and started to eat, placing my books below me....

    "I 'ot Herbology irst' "I said, with a mouthful of food..Yuru came down, cooing with a note from Dad, saying I would get it later that day.

    I had Defense against the Dark Arts, my Favorite Class...Then Lunch, followed by Potion's("Yes!")..and then Survival Training for the day.

    I finished early, and got my books, and had enough time to grab what I needed for Herbology, and Dark Arts first, and give Chibi some Bacon..which made her eyes..or what I thought of Eyes, a gleam.

    I rushed down to the Herbology Greenhouse..(Is that were we go?)..Getting some directions from teachers Along the way..

    [COLOR=orangered]Alec Firness

    Before I drank, I raised my cup to him.
    "Tae a joyous an' 'opeful year!" I toasted. He raised his cup and we clashed them together, then drank up. After sipping our tankards, he was about to say something when a boy walked in. He nodded at me.
    "I'll ask you tomorrow," he whispered. "Hi Shilan!" he said to the boy that had just come in. I smiled and nodded back. Shilan had just come in and plopped his bags on his bed, then looked around.
    "Alright?" I asked, outstretching my hand to him. "My name's Alec."
    He shook my hand courteously then Ajax offered him a butterbeer. I looked at the time.
    "Jumpin' jackrabbits! Look at the time!" I said, then drank about half my butterbeer. "We'd best be off to bed."
    Ajax nodded. We downed our butterbeers and he packed up the other two left for the other two room-mates (OOC: let's just call our other two roomates Jake Halls and Paul Thomas). Jake and Paul walked in, obviously had been to an other room and after greetings we went to sleep.

    Am I right in assuming that people of the same house have classes together?


    --------------
    Elizabeth (Endriago)
    --------------

    I woke up with a start as morning came shinning through my window. At first I had forgot where I was, but then I remembered.

    "Morning... already?" I mumbled, getting out of bed very reluctantly. Larien was still sleeping, and I looked down at my bedside magic clock.

    "Oh no!" I said frantically, noticing what time it was.

    "Larien! Larien, get up! We're almost late for beakfast! They're all gonna be gone by the time we get there!" I said, nudging her awake.

    "W... what?" she said groggily, finally waking up.

    "Breakfast!" I said, pointing to the clock.

    "Oh!" said Larien, quickly getting up.

    Together we quickly put our robes on, and went down to eat beakfast at a fast walk.

    Luckily, plenty of people were still eating, and Larien and I looked over our schedule for the day.

    "Defense Against the Dark Arts... Offence Magic... lunch... and then Care of Magical Creatures..." I recited, looking over my schedule.

    "Yay! Care of Magical Creatures! Oh, and Offence Magic sounds nice too..." I said, looking a bit embarrased by my enthusiasm.

    I then fell a bit quiet, and went back to my eggs, thinking of all the new things I would soon be learning.

    OOC: Just a note...HealdPK, we do have two other people in our dorm, namely Alo Kanule Black (Opaque Onigoori, who was/is on vacation) and Malvar Dragus (played by RaZoR LeAf). I just thought we should use their names for when/if they return. Also, to CoolTrainer IcEz, will their be actual classes, or will we have to just describe what had happened in them? I'm gonna hold out on posting the next morning. Also, I changed my eye color to a deep blue. I apologize if I shouldn't have, but I didn't think it would affect much.

    ---------------------
    Ajax Mostafa- Torignis
    ---------------------

    Much to my relief, it seemed that all had been forgiven. We toasted to the new school year, and we drank. Something was still bothering me though; what was Alec's other (for lack of a better word) part? He hadn't mentioned it...could he be a werewolf, perhaps? Or maybe a vampire? But he had no fangs...not wanting to assume anything, I thought the best thing to do was to ask him.

    "Hey, Alec..." I began, but the dormitory door swung open once again, and Shilan appeared in the doorway. "I'll ask you tomorrow," I told Alec, with a nod. "Hey, Shilan!" I greeted, as he dropped his stuff down in the bed across from mine; Alec had chosen the one to the left of mine (if you're looking at it from on top of my bed, it's the right) and closest to the door. I tossed him a mug, and he filled it and drank with us. After what seemed to be hours, Alec's eyes grew wide as he looked at his watch.

    "Jumpin' jackrabbits!" he shouted, and I jumped out of my seat. Look at the time! We'd best be off tae bed."

    I too looked at my watch, and found that it was extremely late. As they changed out of their robes (I had already done so before either of them had arrived), our two other roommates came in, looking just as or even more tired than we were. Not seeming much for conversation, they introduced themselves as Alo Black (I'm not related to Sirius!" he assured us) and Malvar Dragus, who right off the bat introduced himself as a werewolf. Although he felt like he could tell everyone what he was, I knew I couldn't, and I admired him for that.

    We shook, and they joined us in a few quick drinks and some light conversation before changing and going to bed. It didn't take long for me to fall asleep, and I soon drifted off into a dreamy state, wondering what the year would bring.

    Sorry guys, but I feel i'm going to have to leave this RPG. Everytime I come by the RPG forum, i find it's expanded by a page,and since I don't reply every time I'm online, I find i'm missing out chunks of the RPG. So anyway, thanks for trying to involve my character there Eevee Trainer, and sorry CoolTrainer IcEz for dropping out of what is probably going to be a great RPG, but I don't think I can keep up. Thanks for your time for reading this.

    Sorry to hear that Razorleaf. I hope you had fun while you were here. I'm sure you'll be missed.

    Basically, the teachers will describe what they are going to teach and often you'll be left on your own to practice the spell, ie. Transfiguration. Then you'll describe what you do and the teacher will end the class. It doesn't have to be done like that for the entire term at Aortas, perhaps just a few lessons.

    Default PLEASE! LET ME JOIN!

    Hi there! I'm really sorry I didn't sign up earlier, but my internet was down for a long time. Can I still join in? I promise to catch up to everyone quickly...so, can I, please?

    ---

    NAME: Celia Neshook

    GENDER: Female

    SPECIES: I'm 75% Veela; everyone on my mother's side is one, and my grandmother on my father's side was one.

    PERSONALITY: I may be somewhat of a loner and also very reserved when I'm surrounded by new people that I have yet to learn about, but to those who want to get to know me, I'm very open and friendly toward them. I try not to reveal my true nature to others, for fear of what they would think of me. My talents as a witch surpass those of most of my other peers, which is probably why I was accepted to a school like Aortas in the first place.

    APPEARANCE: I have beautiful, soft black hair that drops to my shoulders, which are slightly broad. My legs are very long and slender; they're one of my nicest features. I have glassy blue eyes, pale, moon-bright skin with a fair amount of random beauty marks, and a birthmark on the back of my neck. Outside of school, I like to wear a sleeveless white shirt and black capris. Also when I get angry, the same thing that happens to all Veela happens to me, so watch out!

    CLASSES:
    -Defense Against the Dark Arts
    -Transfiguration
    -Potions
    -Charms

    -Divination
    -Care of Magical Creatures
    -Herbology

    AUROR TRAINING:
    -Offense Magic
    -Unarmed Combat
    -Armed Combat
    -Survival Training

    HOUSE: Torignis

    WAND: 12", Dogwood, Unicorn Tail Hair

    YEAR: First

    ANIMAL: I have a White Tent Bat named Carmen.

    QUIDDITCH: Chaser

    HISTORY: The only person I've ever known in my family is my mother; my father was said to have dissapeared when I was about 4, and I don't remember him at all. My mother is a relief Chaser for the Ballycastle Bats, so I only see her once in awhile. Her friend, Gina, who is also a Veela, stays with me whenever she is gone. Though I barely know the rest of my family, I'm sure they're out there; where, I'm not sure. My mother used to live somewhere in London, where my father lived in a small town on the outskirts of it; they met in his hometown, and I was brought up (well, for the first few years of my life) there, until my father dissapeared. At this point, my mother and I moved back to the heart of London, where we still live.

    OTHER:A weird trait about me is that even though I am 75% Veela my hair is black. Veela's hair is usually glowing, golden, blondish. What is up with that?But hey my dad had black hair so I must have gotten it from him. My patronus is a Raven. My birthday is oct.3. As an unregistered animagus I am a flying fox (which is a kind of bat) animagus appearance: I have very dark black wings and a very light brown face, my eyes are still their glassy blue color. The back of my head is slightly shaggy and it is a dark reddish color that goes all the way down my back as well as around my stomach.

    OOC: Actually, Dark Templar 8, CoolTrainer IcEz changed his house to Endriago, remember? So that would re-open the third Chaser's spot. However, I was a little confused on how to do the schedules too; it's been what's keeping me from posting my next day.

    Your sign-up is accepted. Basically, there is no timetable for classes. You can just attend any class you like during the year. Please post... I don't wish to see this RPG die off.

    Sheila Rae - Torignis

    I supposed I would have to wait until tomorrow to tell Ajax; he was already his dorm for the night. I was really tired too, I thought I should get ready for bed. "Look at her hair, it's green," I heard some third year boys snicker from a couch they were sitting on. No one ever said anything about my hair before; or at least they didn't voice it will I was around. I noticed a huge oak door in the common room, but I wasn't up to investigating it more. So I went to the girls' dorm and unpacked my trunk.

    I hung up my robes, put my sneakoscope on the table, and took Azzurro out of her cage as she crawled around my four-poster. After unpacking everything, I found a little surprise. Aunt Analisa had packed my ocarina, which I had forgotten! I was so happy! I began to play a soft melody, but all the other older girls started looking at me, so I quickly shoved it away in my drawer.

    I walked around the dorm, and near the entrace, I saw a plaque I had not noticed before. It had the names of all the girls in the Torignis house engraved in it, along with the year they were in. I saw another girl's name under the 'First year' heading, but I thought I was the only girl. Her name was Celia. -Hey, I though, -Celia, Sheila, our names are kinda close! I was hoping she could be my friend, I really didn't want to be alone, and even though Ajax was my friend, I had no one in the dorm. I also still kinda had the feeling the Akina didn't like me, and my idea wasn't going to help that.

    Suddenly, a girl carrying two trunks rushed into the dorm. She had shiny black hair down to her shoulders. Then she set her trunks down on the bed that was the one next to mine. As she rushed towards it, I slowly followed her.

    "Hello," I said to her. "I'm glad I'm not alone." But I didn't know why I was getting my hopes up. No one, other than Ajax, wanted to be friends with a mermaid. But maybe it was worth the try.

    Kazumi Nishida - Guivre

    I woke up in a strange bed in strange surroundings. Scrambling out and looking around, I remembered.
    Aortas
    So...I'd managed to crawl to my dormitory after stuffing myself at the gigantic feast last night.
    I wandered over to my old oak trunk, opened it, and pulled out my clothes and cloak.
    "So...which class do I go to now? I think...i'll pick...um...how about...no...I know! Unarmed Combat! Sounds good...

    Default This includes everything up too in the dorm for the first time

    When I awoke in my bed I felt cold. I had again kicked my blankets off of me in the night. I sighed and remade my bed. I had woken up so early that it was slightly dark still. I sat on my bed for a long time. Just thinking that summer was almost over. And I was going back to school, not that I minded. When the sun finally began to rise I got up and started going downstairs untill I heard a sqeuk and I looked back to see carmen's tiny white figure hovering in behind me.
    "Okay carmen come on," I said to her. She grabbed onto the back of my shirt and clung there as I went downstars.Gina was sitting at the table sipping some herbal tea. "good morning celia,"she siad."you don't look very happy even though your mother is visiting tomorrow." I had completly forgot that my mom was coming home tomorrow. And the main reason she was coming was to see me go to school. I wondered whether I would be excepted to Aortas, it had been Ginas idea for me to try for it. I would have gone back to hogwarts if not for her.
    Suddenly I heard the clutter of wings and a distinct hooting near our window, which was weird because usually our mail was delivered by a bat. But the owl hooted impatiently so I went over and let it in. The owl looked quite ole so I carfully took the parchment. THe owl left after Gina talked to it and gave it a knut.
    "Gina!"I said, suddenly excited,"I've been excepted into Aortas!"
    "well that's nice Celia"She said,"why don't you send Carmen to tell your mother?"
    "Right!"I said. I took Carmen off my back and put her onto a stand we had in the kitchen for her. Then I took a scroll of parchment out of my cabinet and quickly scribbled down that I had been accepted and tied it to Carmen. Because she is a bat, and so small, instead of around her leg it was tied onto their stomach.
    "Now get this to my mom,"I said rubbing her head. Then she fluttered out the window. "what supplies do you need?" asked Gina.
    "See for yourself,"I said, handing her the supply list that had been on a smaller peice of parchment.
    "Then you had better get to diagen alley,"she said. Suddenly, Carmen whisked in. "that bat is a regular little white comet,"said Gina laughin. I gave Cramen one of the crickets from her treat jar as I took my mother's reply from her.

    Dear Celia,
    I'm very proud of you for being accepted into Aortas. It is a great step for you into your future. I'll see you tommorrow!
    Love, Mom

    "well I better get to Diagen Alley"I said. "Wait" said Gina. She went to a cuboard and gave me a bag of galleons.
    "oh yeah!"I said grabbing the bag and running out the door.
    My house wasn't too far away from Diagon alley, at least not to far for me. I ran past the many muggles down many streets untill, out of breath I ran into the pub. I considered stopping for a butterbeer but then I reconsidered and starte walking towards Diagen Alley's entrance. As I got closer to it, I noticed some people in the shadows staring at me. I could not see them from where I stood, but one of them whistled loudly at me and, embaressed I went into diagen alley.
    I tried to ignore all the people I saw. I was afraid someone would freak me out and... well I didn't want that to happen here. After all I was a little shaky from in the pub. I was sad because I would have liked to talk to some of the people walking around. I wondered how many other people were from Aortas.
    I went to alot of crowded stores each busseling with busy witches and wizards. But after awhile I was surprised I had completed the list so quickly, untill I saew the sky which was beginning to fade into late afternoon. I started off towards home but stopped midstep, I saw it in Flourish and Blotts, books were flying off their shelves too someone.
    I walked towards the window and saw he was a boc, casting the accio spell on the books. He was muscular and had clear icy blue eyes, like shallow pools of water, and spiked black and gold hair. I stared in aww for a spilt second but he glanced toward the window and I ducked away.
    My heart beat hard the whole way home. Who was that guy in Flourish and Blotts? Would I ever see him again? My thoughts buzzed around in my head all the way home and as I lay in my bed I couldn't stop thinking about him.
    I had a weird dream that night, I dreamed that I was sitting on a bench in the middle of a feild. And their was a cool, clear pond in front of me. Then I jumped into it but fell through into a weird endless tunnel and books were flying all around me. And then towards a figure far away. I tried to go towards the figure who suddenly became the boy I saw at Flourish and Blotts. I was running towards him but getting nowhere, I ran faster but he kept going farther and farther away, my heart pounded and I gasped for breath. And I woke up hot and sweating and my heart pounding like drums.

    The next day I didn't say anything at breakfast and Gina asked me if I was feeling okay and if I wanted to talk about it but I didn't I spent most of the morning packing. I wasn't really focosed and I accidently put Carmen into my trunk. I snapped back to reality when I heard her sqeauking like it was the end of the world untill I let her out and she clung tightly to my shirt.
    My mother came around 2 PM and I spnt some time with her, which was okay but I didn't really do anything. I was laying on my bed staring at the ceiling when my mom came in and sat on the bed. She asked me if somthing was wrong just like Gina did but again I said nothing was wrong, and it was the truth. My mom had broughten her own bat, Lucia who was a huge flying fox bat.
    I watched Lucia and Carmen flutter around the room for awhile untill I drifted into a restless sleep.
    I couldn't remember my dream that night, as soon as I woke up it seemed to dissapear, which was weird because usually I remembered my dreams, but it didn't matter. My mom, Gina, and I all went to the train station together. My mom kept hugging me and saying how now she'd see me even less then usual but I said I'd write to her when I could. I was about to go on when out of the corner of my eyes I saw a hint of shimmering gold. My heart leaped and I looked over, could the boy I saw at Flourish and Blotts be going to Aortas? But I couldn't tell if it had been him because whoever it was had already boarded, I sighed and lugged my school stuff, and Carmen in her special cage, up to the train. I couldn't find any open booths untill I made my way to the last cabin. There were already 3 people there but they let me sit in there. I sighed and looked out the window as the train began to pull out of the station and my mom and Gina waved, my mom tearfulley, and I waved back untill the platform was out of sight. Right then I noticed that there were 2 boys and a girl also in my cabin. They looked alot older then me, which was strange, but it didn't really matter too me.
    We didn't really talk much, I started reading one of the magazines that Gina had given me. The boy sitting next to kept staring at me. He was pale but very tall, and had light brown hair that was really short. And his eyes were really dark and sinister looking.
    "hi"he said in a very mean voice
    "um.. hello"I said, I knew he was going to do somthing stupid.
    His friend nudged and they laughed.
    "don't mind them,"the girl said to me in a voice that sounded WAY to exagerated,"that always act like that to girls they like."
    Then they all started laughing really loud and it was so annoying. But I tried to ignore them and go back to reading a article about voldemort, but I couldn't even focus over their constant talking to me and laughing. I thought I was going to go over the edge untill the cart lady opened the door and they immediatly fell silent. I bought a some of pumpkin pasties, bertie bott's every flavor beans, and a chocalate frog. I wasn't paying attention to what the other 3 bought.
    The whole rest of the train ride went that way each day I put up with the 3 others constant annoyances. I was so relieved when e neared Aortas that I praticaly leaped into my new robe and was at the edge of my seat for the rest of the way.

    When we did finally make it out of the train I saw among the ocean of people, a figure shouting for the first years to follow them. so I navigated through the ocean of people untill we got to the edge of a lake which was located near Aortas castle almost excactly where it was in hogwarts. As the boats began to move out I felt as though I must have traveled back in time and was a first year in hogwarts again but the sudden noice of the boats dragging onto sjore awoke me from my trance.
    I wondered whether there was a giant squid in their lake as we entered the great hall, which was uncannily familar to howart's great hall but with signifagent differances.
    Suddenly the headmaster arose at the table
    "My name is Professor Aquila and as headmaster of Aortas Auror Academy, I sincerely welcome all first years to our family. In a few moments you will be appraoch the Sorting Shell and place it to your ear. Then, you will be sorted into one of the four houses which you will remain in for the rest of you school life here. Again, enjoy yourself at Aortas and remember to learn something too," he said before sitting down.
    I didn't really listen untill they made it to the M's because I would be called soon. "Mostafa, Ajax"was called.
    I gasped, the boy I saw at Flourish and Blotts approached the shell. After a moment, "Torignis!"said the shell.
    About one minute later I heard "Neshook, Celia"called.
    Holding my breath I approached the stool where the shell was. I placed it to my ear and heard a voice arising from the shell. "hmm, quite smart, and brave so where to put you?"it whispered in my ear. "Torignis"I pleaded in my head,"Torignis!"
    "well yes you are quite hard working and don't easily give up so, TORIGNIS!"it said at last.
    My heart skipped a beat a looked out too the Torignis table and saw Ajax. I closed my eyes then went to the Torignis table for the first time, I tried to eat alot at the feast because was really hungry after the train ride.

    Afterwards I ran all the way to the common room.
    I entered the commonroom carrying my two trunks with Carmen Clinging to my shirt. I walked over too my bed and put my stuff on it, then let carmen nestle hersef in my blanket. Then I heard someone behind me, "hello,"she said,"I'm glad I'm not alone"
    I was somewhat taken aback by her strange greeting, but she seemed nice,"your hair.."I said. "she looked kind of dissapointed "No! it's really pretty!"I told her,"I've never seen such a cool shade of gren for hair before!" I felt Kind of goofy saying that to her but still. "Oh really,"she said,"I never thought anyone thought that about my hair..." "hey come on,"I said,"How about we share some of my leftover snacks from the train?" "okak,"she said.
    Over my leftover pumkin pasties Sheila, her name, happened to be a mermaid. Which I thought was probably one of the coolest things in the world. After awhile of trading facts about ourselves we finally turned in. "Goodnight Sheila,"I said,"see you in the morning" And I fell to sleep full of ideas for the days to come...

    Ajax Mostafa- Torignis
    ---------------------

    I woke up the next morning, feeling a little bit groggy, but rested enough. I forced myself out of bed, and stumbled across the room. Alec and Alo were still sound asleep, while Malvar was snoring, but quietly. Shilan, however, wasn't in his bed; he must have been washing up. I knocked on the bathroom door, and heard Shilan's voice from inside.

    "Come in," his voice sounded, and I opened the door. He was pulling his robes over his head, his hair still damp. He smiled and dried his hair with a towel from the rack next to the shower. "Morning," he greeted.

    "Morning," I replied, although groggily.

    "It's all yours," he told me as he started to leave, patting me on the back as he passed. I quickly undressed and washed up, wanting to spend some time in the Common Room before breakfast. By the time I had dressed and was working on my hair, Alec walked in.

    "Morning!" I said, much more cheerfully than before; the shower must have woken me up.

    "Mornin'!" he replied; he was already wide awake.

    "See you at breakfast?" I asked him.

    "Alright then! Save me a seat," he told me, as I left him alone. I closed the bathroom door behind me, and I found myself before a very disgruntled Phoenix.

    "What's the matter with you?" I asked him, stroking the top of his head. He cooed softly, and seemed to jerk his head toward Pirro, who was humming angrily.

    "Oh...you're hungry, aren't you?" I said, addressing Pirro. I opened my trunk and shuffled through all my things, and pulled out a pack of Pumpkin Pasties. I opened them up, and left one in front of Pirro, locking the other away in my trunk for later. I then headed into the Common Room, hoping to see if I could meet any other first years (girls, of course). I plopped down onto the soft, overstuffed sofa, sighing; the fact that classes would start in a few hours had just dawned on me. I sat, staring into the crackling fireplace, for a few minutes, until I felt someone sit down beside me. I looked up.

    I was sure that at this point my mouth was hanging open, if only a little; the person who had sat next to me was a girl, and a gorgeous one at that. Her hair, thick, black, and silky, hung in loose curls down to her shoulders; her legs, long, smooth, and slender, were crossed; and her eyes, twinkling, crystal blue spheres, were only half open. I shook my head, and managed to get out the word, "Hey." 'Smooth,' I told myself, 'Real smooth...'

    "H...hi," she replied, nervously, but not as nervous as myself. I looked at her again; he skin was alabastor, and it glowed with a certain brightness; there was something so beautiful, so similar about her...but I just couldn't put my finger on it...

    "I...I'm Ajax. Ajax Mostafa," I told her, and she giggled. "I'm a First Year."

    "Celia...Celia Neshook," she answered, smiling. What a nice, bright smile she had. "First Year also."

    "Really?" I asked her, excited, and she nodded. "Hey, great!" I exclaimed. Lord knows I wanted to get to know her much better. Just then, a familiar voice sounded from the steps to the girls' dormitories.

    "Morning Ajax!" greeted Sheila, stretching. "I see you've met Celia," she added with a wink; I could feel my face grow hot and red. "Hey, you guys ready for breakfast?" she asked.

    "Sure," I said, turning to Celia.

    "Y...yeah, OK," she said, and she smiled again. We left the Common Room, clambering out of the opening behind the Phoenix statue, and we headed toward the Great Hall. There wasn't much conversation, but quite a few smiles, giggles, and winks were shared. Just then, I thought of Akina. 'Oh god,' I thought to myself. 'What on earth will she think of me now?', I asked myself, and was silent for the rest of the way. When we reached the Great Hall, we took our seats; Celia was next to me, Sheila across from her, and next to Sheila and across from me were two seats for Shilan and Alec. Almost as soon as we sat down, the empty, shining golden plates in front of us filled with food, and we stared eating. I looked over towards the Chifre table, hoping to see Akina, but there was no sign of her, and in a few minutes, a teacher, male and somewhat old but very friendly, handed us our schedules.

    OOC: Someone else can make up the schedule ^.~

    I found out that Celia was part veela. She liked I was a mermaid, and I was glad I had a friend! I didn't really see a huge friendship going on between me and Akina. (insert dodgy look here) Sometime today, I would have to tell Ajax my idea and play my ocarina for Celia. Her little bat was so cute! ^_^

    After I woke and washed up, I went in the common room and saw Celia and Ajax talking. Perhaps they would be friends, too. I noticed the huge oak door again, but now we had to go to breakfast. I went downstairs to the great hall with the two of them.

    I was eating breakfast perfectly normal, and then I closed my eyes and thought for a moment. But it was than a moment. It felt like an electric bolt split thru my brain. I opened my eyes quickly and widened them, dropping my spoon. I quickly scrambled up and said, "I forgot something!" But I didn't forget anything. I didn't know why I just get up. I ran out of the great hall with my hands over my ears, have hair which I had left down today streaming behind me. I dashed up all the stairs to the Torginis common room. I was the only one there, and I stood right in the middle of the room, panting and quickly glancing around. Then I ran out of the room. Just past the Torignis common room entrance, something that felt like an anvil punded the back of my head. I whipped around and noting was there, but I threw my head to my head and shrieked in pain.

    I continued running, back down the stairs, and I was in the "lobby," near the entrance of the great hall. I glanced the the hourglasses where the house point went, then burst out the castle doors, standing on the steps. I took a few breathes. It was still so early morning that my breath made little clouds of fog. The cold air stung my lungs and I mouthed the word "cold," but no words came out. Tears were streaming down my face, but the stopped on my cheeks from being semi-frozen. All that took place in a matter of a few seconds, and it was so cold I went back inside. Just as I entered, I tripped on something and fell flat on my face. I was crying so hard, from thepain of those three things and the confusion, but I didn't want to get up. "Something......is.....wrong," I whispered as I turned my head up, to see blurs sround me.

    OOC: The three things (electric bolt-like, anvil, and tripping) are me paying for not telling about the attack I heard about in knockturn alley. I think I mixed up too much of my real life in that post

    Anyhow, tomorrow I will be going on vacation and will have no access, that I know of, to a computer. I won't be able to go online again until a week from tomorrow. I have given Eevee Forever permission after talking to him on IM to make "major decisions" for my character will I'm gone, through NPC means, of course. Anybody else can use me as an NPC, for things like me saying "Hi," but only Eevee Forver has authorization to make big decisions. Thanks ^_^

    always think...

    After Sheila left I was almost done with my breakfast.
    I felt almost like I was in a trance because what I had been thinking about all this time, was actually happening, and not only that but now that I have met Ajax I'm so shy around him and I can't help but get kind of nervous. And I don't even know why.

    "I'm starting to get worried aot Sheila,"I said after awhile.
    "she said she just had forgot somthing," said Ajax.
    "yeah but she wouldn't take this long just to get somthing would she,"I said,"I mean our common room isn't that far away.
    So I coaxed him too come look for her with me.We got up from what was left of our breakfast, and ran out of the great hall, my school bag slapping against my waist as we sprinted breathlessly towards our common room.

    We climbed in the hole behind the pheonix statue and searched through our common room.
    "I'll check the girl's dorm,"I said as I went up to it. But my search was in vain because there was no trace of her anywhere.

    "Did you find her?"shouted Ajax up at me.
    "No..."I replied weirily.

    We climbed back through the hole in the wall, past the pheonix statue. I sat down on the floor and tried to think where she was.
    "hey she has to be somewhere,"Ajax said, helping me back up.
    "yeah," I said, looking into his eyes, and suddenly a fire lit inside me that told me that I had to find her.
    "Let's go look somewhere else," I said, now enthusiasticly.

    So we ran around differant parts of the school looking for her.
    Ubtnill we made it too where the main doors were.
    Sheila was spralled across the floor shaking.
    "Sheila!"I yelled as me and Ajax ran across the marbled floor towards where she lay.
    "Are you okay?"Ajax asked her as we made it to her.
    She seemed entranced by somthing and only a tiny, inaudible sound pertruded from her lips.
    "we have to get her too the hospital wing quickly,"I said.

    We brought her to the hospital where a old woman who looked oddly similar to madam pomphrey took her too a bed. A plaque on the wall made me realize her name was Madam Mershwin.
    "she is suffering from a major case of shock,"said Madam Mershwin as she rubbed some strange ointment on Sheila's forehead. The solution glowed bright yellow then seemed to sink in untill it dissapeared. We stood at the side of the bed wondering if se would be okay...
