| (( ooc - First I would like to say that the location of the kitchens is HIDDEN in the books. Harry didn't know about it until the twins told him about the Pear Portrait. Therefore, I doubt any DE or average student would know about the location of the kitchens since that is where meals are cooked and the House Elves reside. Second, the House Elves can protect anyone from DE's because they are defenders of the castle and as we all remember... Dobby had no trouble getting rid of Lucius in Book 2 Please do not post here if you shouldn't logically BE here. Thank you Argus Filch )) *Argus Filch stepped through the passage into the warm, well lit Kitchens and breathed a sigh of relief. There were four ways into and out of the Kitchens in case they were found and it would be warm enough for the students to sleep by the fire. Luckily there were House Elves around to help them and send word of where they were to the other Professor's. He set Aura down carefully on his tattered cloak close to a fire place and turned to direct the students still coming down the pass. "Set them by a fire if they're hurt really badly, if not place em farther away, I'm headin' back for the rest of the students." |

| Poppy placed the student in her arms infront of the fire and followed Argus to get more. She couldn't believe what was going on and what happened. Her hospital wing.. This was like the 2nd war so long ago. They were re-living it again. "Children, stay here. Argus and I will get everyone else." |

| Matt helped his patient get settled before checking on his friends. The walk down the stairs was slippery, cold, and trecherous. He helped Cimber and the Staff out as he could. |

| *Alexandria Davis followed behind Mr. Filch through the door that was at the end of the passage. Stepping out of the door, she blinked as she looked around. The kitchens? They were in the kitchens? She had no idea how it was they were able tomake it down here, but she shrugged her shoulders and went straight to her cousin's side. "Thank you for carrying her, Mr. Filch." Looking around, she could see a bustle of activity from the house elves. Several had stopped to look at them and ask if there was anything they could do, but otherwise kept up with business as usual. |
| Posted by: Cimber Metallus Nov 11 2003, 04:10 AM |
| Cimber entered the Kitchen with Stella and set her down in a nearby seat. He smiled at her reassuringly. "I'll be right back. I'll just check on the others." He then went to his rounds, wondering if he would be able to do his rounds in the Hospital Wing ever again... |
| Posted by: Rayya Nov 11 2003, 04:12 AM |
| Rayya tried to place Kovar down gently but couldn't help dropping him a bit harder than she liked. She had picked out a place near the fire, not being sure if he were badly hurt or not. After the last attack he probably wasn't in good shape. Then she headed back up to the Hospital Wing. (OOC: has anyone got Ashley or Janus?) |
| Posted by: Matt Hamblin Nov 11 2003, 04:13 AM |
| Matt moved Dani, Janus and Ashley near Stella and sat beside them in stunned silence. "If you need me again, Cimber," he said, "I'll be right here." |
| Posted by: Cimber Metallus Nov 11 2003, 04:16 AM |
| Cimber smiled in thanks at Matt, but the smile wasn't as bright as it usually was. It was more a necessary smile to keep those around him at ease. "Thank you, Matt. I'll remember that, but for now, please stay here and watch out for your friends. Oh dear...I hope Seth is all right..." He then went on muttering as he continued with checking the patients. |
| Posted by: Madam Pomfrey Nov 11 2003, 04:18 AM |
| *Madam Pomfrey looked at Argus. She knew other students were hurt and she couldn't do anything about it here. "Argus, are there any passages to the Hall? I am going to try to sneak students over here..." |
| Posted by: Missy Nov 11 2003, 04:23 AM |
| Missy was putting out things for her to get the deserts ready for dinner that night, when a door opened suddenly. Stopping, she watches as several students and a couple adults emeged from it. Walking over to them timidly, she looks up wide eyed. "Is Missy able to do anythings for yous, Sirs and Madams? Missy is proud to helps withs anythings you needs..." Looking around, she notices that several of the students were being carried in. She didn't speak up about her ponderings of why. A good house elf doesn't ponder, only serves. |
| Posted by: Argus Filch Nov 11 2003, 04:24 AM |
| *Argus Filch walked back through the passage as it closed behind him, melting back into a plain wall again, just in time to hear Poppy's question. "Do you think we can take the risk?" he asked quietly, AWAY from the other children's prying ears. "What if we're followed back in here, we'll lose the only advantage we have. Right now they don't know where we are and that gives us a measure up safety, do you want to risk losing the few we've saved to see if there are some left in the Great Hall?" |
| Posted by: Matt Hamblin Nov 11 2003, 04:27 AM |
| "I'll go," said Matt, to Mme. Pomfrey. "I'm sure there are students who could use some help." |
| Posted by: Madam Pomfrey Nov 11 2003, 04:28 AM |
| "We must... though you have a point. But the children... Oh Argus. What can we do? Is there any other passages in here we can take to the Great Hall and then take another one back to a different location? I.. what..." *Madam Pomfrey whispered the final part. "if there are seriously hurt children?" She asked fearfully. She then saw the House elf. "Yes, Missy can you make sure NO ONE gets in here. Unless it is Mr. Filch, Myself, or the staff." "Mr. Hamblin, no. You are not allowed to leave." |
| Posted by: Matt Hamblin Nov 11 2003, 04:32 AM |
| Matt went and sat down, a dejected look on his face. |
| Posted by: Missy Nov 11 2003, 04:34 AM |
| Missy stared up at Madam Pomfrey. The tone her voice told her it was very serious and a very important thing to do. Nodding her head multiple times, her ears flopping forward each time, Missy looks up at her. "Missy wills not lets no bodies in. Missy will do as she is tolds. Missy is a good house elf." |
| Posted by: Argus Filch Nov 11 2003, 04:46 AM |
| *Argus Filch nodded and began walking towards a lamp post that looked rather odd, since it was the only one like that in the entire room. He pulled down on one of the arms and turned towards Poppy and Missy as a hole in the wall appeared behind him. "Let's get them, Missy...when we come back we'll say this, ' You may not capitulate or back down, but we will never surrender.' Got that? Good." *Argus Filch dissapeared through the wall, hoping that he would come back unscathed. |
| Posted by: Madam Pomfrey Nov 11 2003, 04:49 AM |
| *Madam Pomfrey nodded at the house elf and all the students. "Missy, make sure Mr. Hamblin stays. Argus and I will be back as soon as we can." |
| Posted by: Missy Nov 11 2003, 04:59 AM |
| Missy nodded to the two adults. "Missy will remembers. Missy is a good house elf." Turning to the boy that Madam Pomfrey had motioned to, she looks at him. "Madams wants yous to stays here. You will do whats Madams wants." Thinking for a second, she comes to a decision. Mr. Hamblin would stay in the kitchen whether he wanted to or not. It was not a well known fact, but house elves were very magically adept, how else could they do all the things they would do. Raising her hand, she threw her fingers out to the boy Madam Pomfrey had indicated, bounding him to the chair he was sitting in. "Missys sorry sir... Missys onlys doings whats Madams wants her to." With that she walked away to the portrait hole that was covered by the fruit. Raising her hands, she throws out her fingers again and seals the door. Password or not no one would get in that way unless she allowed them. Walking around to the various other passageways, she did the same thing to them, sealing them. The kitchen was locked down, no one would get in, no one would get out unless she released them. "Missy is a good house elf. Missy locks the kitchens so no bodies gets ins ors outs." She then walks around offering the students who were awake food or drink or anything else they may need or want. |
| Posted by: Alexandria Davis Nov 11 2003, 05:05 AM |
| *Alexandria Davis watches in awe, from her cousin's side, as the house elf flicked her fingers and magically sealed the room. 'Wow... and not even a wand....' She mused to herself. Alex had been in the wizarding world for a year and a half now, but still found herself amazed by many things people who were in this world their whole life took for granted. When the house elf came by her and asked if she wanted anything, Alex sighed and said, "Yeah.. this not to be happening?" Shaking her head slightly, she continued. "No thank you... Missy, right? I'm fine... thank you for helping us... we appeciate it..." |
| Posted by: Missy Nov 11 2003, 05:10 AM |
| "Missy is justs doings her job, Miss. Missy is a good house elf." Missy says as the Ravenclaw student thanked her. Smiling in the only way a house elf could, she continued to make her rounds amongst the students, double checking the seals she had put up on the various entrances ocasionally. |
| Posted by: Argus Filch Nov 11 2003, 05:10 AM |
| *Argus Filch trudged back up the passage way carrying the Gryffindor Third year, who was NOT as light as he appeared. He paused before the sealed passageway exit and called out loudly. 'You may not capitulate or back down, but we will never surrender.' Then he waited patiently for the door to open. |
| Posted by: Madam Pomfrey Nov 11 2003, 05:13 AM |
| Following the students who were all infront of her Poppy saw Argus waiting for the passage to open and nodded. She was glad the children were safe so far. "Do we have everyone?" |
| Posted by: Missy Nov 11 2003, 05:14 AM |
| As Missy passed the passageway that Filch and Pomfrey had exited from, she hears a loud, "You may not capitulate or back down, but we will never surrender." come from behind the door. Instantly remembering that was the only thing that could be said to open the door, she throws her hand up and throws her fingers out, tiny sparks emitting from them. Stepping back to avoid the door, she watches as it opens to show the form of Filch carrying a boy, Madam Pomfrey and several more students. Quickly, she scrambles to keep from being under foot and in the way. |
| Posted by: Argus Filch Nov 11 2003, 05:19 AM |
| *Argus Filch rushed the boy over to a clear spot by the fire and set him down carefully. He leaned back wearily for a moment and his cough started up again. Filch had been running on pure energy before, but now his bad health was catching up with him again. *Argus Filch walked over to Poppy wearily," I think we've done all we can for now, the older ones can work in shifts to watch the younger. Right now I'm not much use to anyone for awhile, Call me if you need me I'll be sleeping by one of the fires." With that he trudged to another clear spot and practically collapsed against a wall, shutting his eyes in exsauhstion. |
| Posted by: Rayya Nov 11 2003, 05:27 AM |
| Rayya sat down and sighed. (that seemed to be the only way I could manage to bring both events together. lol) |
| Posted by: Madam Pomfrey Nov 11 2003, 05:30 AM |
| *Madam Pomfrey nodded at Argus knowing she will stay up all night. "Sleep well. Thank you Argus. For helping." She said looking over the children and sighing. |
| Posted by: Missy Nov 11 2003, 05:30 AM |
| Watching from the corner she had retreated to to avoid being trampled, she sees the boy laid down by a fire then Mr. Filch walk over and sit by one also falling asleep. Getting an idea, she snaps her fingers once. Smiling inwardly to herself as a blanket from the laundrey area made a 'pop' and appeared in her hand. Scooting quickly over to Filch, she lays the blanket on top of him as he slept. Backing away so she would not disturb him, she went to each of the sleeping students. Snapping her fingers at each one, she made a pillow and a blanket appear. Getting each student who was asleep a pillow and a blanket, she returned to Filch and had a pillow 'pop' into place for him as well. Once that was finished, she remembered that the door should be resealed. She still wasn't supposed to let anyone in or out. Getting over the passage quickly, she puts her hand up and throws out her fingers, with little sparks emitting from them, sealing the passageway once more. She then went back into the main part of the kitchen. Coming back out several minutes later, she followed a cauldren that had been simmering soup in it. Leaving it on one of the large wooden tables, she snaps her fingers a few more times, makeing bowls and spoons appear. 'Popping' out of site again, she returned once more with several pitchers floating in front of her; some with hot chocolate, some with hot apple cider, and some with pumpkin juice. Placing them on another table, she snaps her fingers again causing mugs and glasses to appear. |
| Posted by: Madam Pomfrey Nov 11 2003, 05:32 AM |
| *Madam Pomfrey sat down and smiled at Missy. "Thank you Missy, wonderful idea." she said grabbing some hot chocolate and soup for herself. |
| Posted by: Lockore Nov 11 2003, 05:36 AM |
| "Yes, thank you Missy." Lockore said, giving the house elf a small bow. Then he turned to Madam Pomfrey, "Is there nothing else we can do?" |
| Posted by: Missy Nov 11 2003, 05:39 AM |
| Missy bowed her head with her elf ears falling forward. "Missy is onlys doings her job Sirs and Madams. Missy is a good house elf. Missy does whats shes supposed to." |
| Posted by: Rayya Nov 11 2003, 05:40 AM |
| Rayya accepted a glass and smiled, "Thanks, Missy." She looked at Lockore and almost smiled at his question. It was so typical of him. She then turned back to look at Madam Pomfrey and asked, "When you have a minute would you mind looking at my arm. It's kinda broken....." She trailed off muttering rude words about deatheaters. And then quickly added, "I was no where near the forest!" |
| Posted by: Lockore Nov 11 2003, 05:47 AM |
| "All right then." Lockore said, and went to set in a corner by himself. He was soon dozing peacefully, with Guen and Skie on his lap, and Adric perched above him. (OoC You didn't really think I'd leave them outside, did you? ) |
| Posted by: Alexandria Davis Nov 11 2003, 05:48 AM |
| Alex saw the house elf pull out a pot of what she was assuming was soup. Truth be told she was starving. She hadn't ate anything since her cousin had been taken to the wing. Since before actually. She had not left Aura's side while she was in the hospital wing. Glancing down, she sighs. 'You have to take care of yourself... she will be fine asleep without you long enough to get some food....' Alex thought, trying to reason with herself. Getting up, she walks over to the table with the soup, and spooned out a bowl for herself. She then went to the table with the drinks and poured herself a cup of hot chocolate. 'Mmmm... chocolate... sugar... Merlin knows I need something to keep me awake...' She thinks as she picks up the bowl and cup. Glancing at the people around the food tables, she smiles slightly at them. "You guys alright, Rayys, Lockore? Were you able to find everyone okay, Madam Pomfrey? Please... tell me what I can do..." She says as she glances back to where her cousin lay. She knew Aura wasn't going anywhere, but with everything that has happened, especially her getting attacked in the first place, she had grown a little paranoid. She was still holding out hope that this was all just one of her very real nightmares. That none of it was real. That she would wake up... |
| Posted by: Madam Pomfrey Nov 11 2003, 05:50 AM |
| *Madam Pomfrey looked at the young boy. "No, just rest dear. That is all you can do right now." She then turned to Rayya. "I am so sorry Dear. So much going on.." *Madam Pomfrey said trailing off and looking at her arm. Taking out her wand she pointed it at Rayya's arm and said the spell that would heal it. |
| Posted by: Rayya Nov 11 2003, 05:56 AM |
| "Thanks, Madam Pomfrey," Rayya said gratefully, her arm no longer hurting as much. She found a spot near Kovar and nodded off to sleep. |
| Posted by: Alexandria Davis Nov 11 2003, 06:09 AM |
| Glancing back over to her cousin, she takes her soup and hot chocolate back over to her. She had been away for too long already. Putting her things down, she walks over and grabs one of the blankets. Sitting down, she covers her legs and picks her soup up and eats it in silence, watching everyone around her. She also periodically glanced to the places she had witnessed the house elf charm. She was probably being paranoid, but she kept thinking someone they didnt want in, could come in somehow. That thought scared her to death. They would be sitting ducks in here. 'Please let this all be a bad dream...' She thinks to herself as she finishes her soup. Drinking the last of her hot chocolate, she gets up and puts her things where the other bowls and cups had acumulated. Returning to her cousin's side, she retakes her seat snd returns to her observing. There was no way she was going to be able to sleep. She couldn't sleep and keep an eye on her cousin at the same time. |
| Posted by: Kovar Nov 11 2003, 06:16 AM |
| Kovar winced slightly as he rubbed one of his cuts along a rough surface. Stupid prefect. He glared at the prefect and anyone else who came near. He still could not talk, but at least his limbs had straightened out. Now was the matter of warming up a bit as he still felt a little chilled from the last Cruciatus Curse. Suddenly he froze. Oh f**k! He realized that he was idiotic in telling that professor that his father had done it to him. He will see! I am a fool to think that he will not find out! He cursed the professor and scowled as he stared into the flames of the fire. |
| Posted by: Zapotocky Nov 11 2003, 06:41 AM |
| *Zapotocky was in a rage after hearing from his trusted servant that the boy had given him away to a bloody Professor. His temper flared as the made his way back to the damned school. After finding the Hospital Wing charred and empty he thundered down the passageway and found himself at a closed and locked door. *Zapotocky's temper flared even more as he spent the time to break through the locks placed on the door. Once they were removed he threw it open and stormed inside and found himself in a kitchen. He sneered at the huddled and injured students, noticing that there were more of them before. He scanned the room, not bothering with the old woman or the sleeping man. The house-elves didn't matter either. His eyes narrowed as he saw his son staring at the fire with a injured girl sleeping next to him. His eyes narrowed, so the boy had a friend. Not for much longer! He stalked over to Kovar and kicked the sleeping girl out of the way, hearing ribs break and snatched Kovar out from the bed. "You useless little s**t," he snarled, shaking the boy. "You dared to tell and you still haven't got the right medication. You are a useless piece of s**t!" With that he carried the boy to the nearest table and slammed him down on top of it. He grabbed his wand and held it in front of Kovar's face, glaring at him with cold eyes. In a deadly cold voice he said, "Avada K...." and stopped, letting out a laugh that chilled the blood. "You say another word, you little f**k, and you will be dead!" He went to leave but turned back and stalked over to the girl, dropping a black velvet bag on top of her. "There they are....if you remember them!" he snarled. He laughed and addressed the boy, "You truely are a worthless little f**k!" He spun around on his heel, continuing to laugh as he left the kitchen. |
| Posted by: Cimber Metallus Nov 11 2003, 07:22 AM |
| (ooc: It may just be me but isn't it that no one is supposed to know where the passageway to the kitchens and where the kitchens are exactly? Just a few thoughts...) Cimber's eyes narrowed at the display, hating the man instantly at first sight. He might know everything that had happened between Kovar and the man but really, did it have to be like that? He walked towards the seething Kovar and asked him if he were all right. |
| Posted by: Kovar Nov 11 2003, 07:27 AM |
| (Out of Character: Ask him *points up*) Kovar's attention was drawn from the fire to the tall man coming through the door. Oh s**t. He knows. Kovar's father grabbed him by the neck and hauled him up. "You useless little s**t," he snarled, shaking the boy. "You dared to tell and you still haven't got the right medication. You are a useless piece of s**t!" "I-" Kovar found that his voice finally decided to return, even if it was weak, but immediately shut up. If he denied it, his father would break every bone in his body. Whump! The air was knocked out of Kovar as his father slammed him down on the table. Kovar opened his eyes to see his father's wand in his face. He held his hands up, palm towards his father, his eyes cold and dark with hatred. "Avada K...." His father did not complete the spell. "You say another word, you little f**k, and you will be dead!" The pressure on Kovar's windpipe was eased as his father released him before stalking over to the Gryffindor girl. Reaching into his robes, his father drew out a black bag, dropping them on the girl. "There they are....if you remember them!" he snarled. Kovar sat up slowly, glaring at his father, as the man laughed, "You truely are a worthless little f**k!" Kovar brought a hand up to his throat as he watched his father leave. He eased himself off the table and jerked the bag up off of the girl. He frowned and looked into the bag. Various potions and various ingredients filled the bag. "Fine," he spat at the boy who asked if he was alright. His hatred of humans was always strengthened right after one of these little punishment sessions. |
| Posted by: Ligeia Harding Nov 11 2003, 07:33 AM |
| Ligeia opened her eyes. She got what little rest she could, but as her eyes opened everything had come back to her. Deatheaters. Fire in the Hospital Wing. The kitchens. She let out a yawn and looked over to her mum. She was sleeping. Good she needed the rest. She rubbed her eyes and got herself up. "Somehow I don't think this will be a good morning, although I wish it was.." she whispered to herself as she looked at the rest of the sleeping children around her. How could this happen? How could they just walk right in and make the place chaotic like that? And walking into the Hospital Wing and setting it on fire! How could Draco Malfoy have done that to innocent people who were already hurt? She briefly wondered what became of everyone else in the school... where was everyone else? |
| Posted by: Rayya Nov 11 2003, 07:36 AM |
| Rayya had dozed off and was more or less sleeping peacefully on the floor, when suddenly pain flared through her side and she heard something crack and she woke up with a startled cry of pain. Her mind whirled, surely it couldn't be another deatheater attack! They were safe in the kitchen! Madam Pomfrey and Mr Flich had assured them they were. She winced as she tried to sit up and look around but it hurt too much to move and at least one of her ribs was definately broken, she could feel it moving. She lay there and listened to what was going on and went cold when she recognised the man's voice. She whimpered and wondered what the adults were going to do. Footsteps came towards her and stopped and she looked up and saw the horrible man staring at her. She cringed, expecting another kick in the ribs. A bag fell on top of her and she cried out as pain flared through her body. Then before she could even attempt to open it, Kovar snatched it away. She lay there whimpering. Life was certainly beating her up at the moment. |
| Posted by: Aurora Braelin Nov 11 2003, 08:15 AM |
| Aura slowly became aware of her surroundings as that air had changed. It went from clear, to smokey, to clear again with a hint of fresh food in the air. Aura opened her eyes slightly and rested her hand on her tender neck still. She looked around and noticed Alex sitting beside her. Where was Darcie? Aura sat up and noticed that she was on someone's cloak. She didn't question is and scooted closer to Alex, not knowing why or how she got there. She made to asked Alex why they were there, but her voice failed her and she just settled with massaging her tender throat. |
| Posted by: Stella Thorpe Nov 11 2003, 08:34 AM |
| She was awake, and had been fully capable of walking when Cimber decided to take matters into his own hands and take her up here after the beds had caught fire. ''Thanks, Cim...'' she muttered softly before reaching over and taking Matt's hand. The younger boy looked terrified, and her maternal instinct was kicking in. ''It'll be okay, Mattie...'' she managed before coughing from the smoke she'd gotten in her lungs. |
| Posted by: Lady Isabella de Wynter Nov 11 2003, 09:45 AM |
| (OOC I'm not sure exactly how I fit in here but I'll do my best.) During the attack, Isabella had been inside the Assistants' Office, a room to the side. She had come out when the attack was over and the Hospital locked down. When the decision was made to move the students to the Kitchens, she had made a quick decision and instead of helping to levitate the others or carry them, Bella had run into the Stockrooms. While in there she hurriedly Summoned the largest magically expandable baskets and then proceeded to pack supplies. Her fury and nervous energy combined with her racing terrified mind was such that she didn't notive that there was nothing more to pack until she found herself waving a wand at empty shelves. Blinking, she realized that she had accidentally packed the contents of the entire stock room. Now came the problem of carrying all this. After all, although the baskets reduced weight, there were certain limits. "Reducio!" she snapped several times. The baskets shrank to a much better size. Hearing that nearly everyone was leaving, she levitated the baskets (which were the heaviest things she had ever carried) and calling for the tiny hospital owls to follow her from the office, she trudged with the last of the patients into the passageway. As the baskets grew heavier and heavier she started panting, hoping they would get there soon. Finally there was light and then they appeared in the Kitchens. Too tired to do anything else from the magical exertion, Bella simply sat with her eyes closed, with the tiny owls fluttering around her. When Kovar's father came in, Bella opened her eyes. Too bad I can't just Avada Kedavra him. Her tired mind grumbled - with so much going on, her temper was starting to rise. I can't stand fools, especially dangerous ones. |
| Posted by: Lazarus Oakenbow Nov 11 2003, 09:57 AM |
| (So sorry guys) Lazarus came running through the doors of the Kitchens. His breath heavy. "Draco, stared at me...didn't do a thing..," he panted. He looked around at them all. "Have they found out yet?" he asked looking around the kitchen as he addressed Argus. |
| Posted by: Lockore Nov 11 2003, 10:21 AM |
| Seeing Lazarus come in the door, Lockore sighed and got back up. He went to put his considerable side against the door, holding it closed until one of the house elves could lock it again, so at least no one would be able to get in that way again.... (OoC Maybe Zapotocky didn't realize that what Mr. Filch said at the beginning applied to him too. Both about people not knowing where the kitchens are or that the magic of a house elf is more than enough to keep him out. *sigh* The ignorance of some is really kind of sad.) |

| Posted by: Sabrina Esperanza Nov 11 2003, 11:05 AM |
| Sabrina woke up to smoke and screams. She sat up and looked around in fear. What in the world was going on?! The next thing she knew, they were all going down a passage, following Mr. Filch who seemed to know where he was going. She went last, clutching at her ice pack, still unfrozen for some reason. HHer hands grew numb and her head was whirling with confusing thoughts. [i]Where am I?[i] Sabrina looked around the Kitchens. She had never been in here before... Sighing, she took an apple cider and settled herself in a corner, headache growing worse. Sabrina drained the mug before going into a deep sleep with many nightmares. (ooc- Argh...a bit late....) |
| Posted by: Ligeia Harding Nov 11 2003, 11:53 AM |
| Ligeia saw Lazarus come into the kitchens and nothing could have made her any calmer than to see him. "Lazarus!" she cried (literally) and threw her arms around him. Ligeia didn't know what was going to happen or how long things were going to occur. She could only hope that Madam Pomfrey and Mr. Filch were right and that the Death Eaters couldn't get into the kitchens. |
| Posted by: Chelsye Sparhawk Nov 11 2003, 12:29 PM |
| Chelsye followed the hospital staff as they evacuated her son Janus, and Ashley, as well as the rest of the students who had been there. She had her wand drawn, ready for anything, but their luck held and they all made it down to the Kitchens safely. |
| Posted by: Sabrina Esperanza Nov 11 2003, 12:42 PM |
| (ooc- As there's nowhere else to post...) Sabrina drew her legs up to her chest, wrapping her arms around them, and she rested her chin on her knees. It was definitly warmer down here than in the Hospital Wing, and there wasn't any tension in the air. Sabrina sighed and smiled for the first time in days. She wondered where all her friends were, and why she couldn't remember some of their names. She shivered a bit and fell asleep once more, hugging herself tightly and wishing she could go out to the lawn again. |

| Matt looked at Stella. "I'm not terrified," he protested. "I have to go to the bathroom and I can't get out of this chair!" He was getting desperate and wiggled the chair. "Missy the house elf magicked me to stay here! Get me out!" |
| Posted by: Allison Black Nov 11 2003, 12:46 PM |
| Allison had been sitting quietly in a corner before she fell asleep. She woke with a start and looked around. She noticed, for the first time, that there was quiet a few people in there. Not only was there the people who had held out at the Gryffidor table, but all the current patients and staff of the Hospital Wing. She blinked to clear her head trying to remember. Oh yes, the Deatheaters! They're reaking havoc on the whole school! Allison thought. She shuddered and leaned back against the wall. (OOC: I go to sleep for 7 hours and we're discovered, rescued, and taken here. Stupid sleep.....  ) |

| ''If you don't quit yelling and squirming, I won't help!'' she retorted, snapping out of her motherly instinct instantly. ''Now let's see...'' she said, leaning down slightly and wincing as she inspected the magic bond. |
| Posted by: Matt Hamblin Nov 11 2003, 01:28 PM |
| "Serioiusly, " whispered Matt, "I won't go anywhere. I just need out of this chair!" |
| Posted by: Ligeia Harding Nov 11 2003, 01:30 PM |
| Ligeia stared at Matt squirming around trying to get out of the chair. She laughed as Stella yelled at him. "Guys, seriously just calm down. There's nothing we can do at teh moment but stay calm and keep everyone down here calm. It's not like we can go up to the Great Hall and take out the Deatheaters single handedly, or are you forgetting what year you are? The highest you can be is a third year and even that isn't enough to keep a Deatheater out of the castle. I just hope the professors are doing something about this, because they are the only ones who can..." |
| Posted by: Stella Thorpe Nov 11 2003, 01:34 PM |
| ''Quit gabbing for a second so I can think!'' she muttered, thinking for a moment. ''Hmmm...an elf, you say? This should be easy...Liberare!'' she whispered, instantly watching the bond disappear. |
| Posted by: Matt Hamblin Nov 11 2003, 01:34 PM |
| Matt flew out of the chair and fell to the floor. He got up and rounded the the corner to the makeshift bathroom. He came back moments later and sat quietly in the same chair he had been stuck to earlier. |
| Posted by: Stella Thorpe Nov 11 2003, 01:41 PM |
| ''Good boy!'' Stella said, smiling at the happy boy and closing her eyes to take a nap |
| Posted by: Allison Black Nov 11 2003, 01:45 PM |
| Allison jumped a bit. Matt? But he wasn't a patient.... Allison thought. She got up and walked over to Matt and Stella. " I'm so glad to see you guys are safe!" she said a bit quietly as not to distrub Stella. She sighed and smiled a bit. "I must have not seen you before...." |
| Posted by: Sabrina Esperanza Nov 11 2003, 01:50 PM |
| (ooc- Still bored...) Sabrina finally woke up after an hour of sleep. She stretched and yawned, feeling much better. Her head did ache a bit, but it wasn't so bad. She stood up and walked around the kitchen, amazed at what she saw. |
| Posted by: Matt Hamblin Nov 11 2003, 02:06 PM |
| "I was up visiting Stella and Dani and J and Ash when the DE's attacked," explained Matt. "I helped evacuate the students and for my reward? They magicked me to this chair. But, stella got me out." Matt looked around. "I'm hungry. Stella? Where was that little refrigerator?" Matt got up and looked for a snack. "I found it!" he called. He brought back a plater of small sandwitches and started passing them out to the students around them. |
| Posted by: VanessaChaldone Nov 11 2003, 02:07 PM |
| Vanessa's eyes snapped open and stared blankly at the ceiling for a few moments. This wasn't her room... The events of the previous night came screaming back to her and she sat up very quickly, stifling a yelp of terror. When her tunnel vision from the ensuing headrush disappated, she looked around. She saw familiar faces... no deatheaters... where was she? |
| Posted by: Sabrina Esperanza Nov 11 2003, 02:26 PM |
| Sabrina spotted one of the hospital assistants and suddenly hit upon an idea. Here goes nothing... She straightened her clothes and her hair and walked up to him/her. "Excuse me," Sabrina tapped her/his shoulder, "I am feeling much better. May I go back to the Gryffindor Common Room?" She waited for an answer, hoping that her primping had made her look normal again. |

| Posted by: Madison Granger Nov 11 2003, 03:41 PM |
| Madison stood up and walked over to Allison. She had been sitting around and staring into space for the last hour or so and decided that it would be good to walk around to get her mind off of everything for a bit. She gave a small smile, unable to say or do anything else. |

| Posted by: Matt Hamblin Nov 11 2003, 04:43 PM |
| "Lockore," Matt said calmly. "Let me out. My friends are probably in trouble and I'm not sick. I need to help them." He looked (way) up to the prefect. " I will avoid all of the DE's I see. I can't stay here anymore. Let me out." |
| Posted by: Lockore Nov 11 2003, 04:53 PM |
| Lockore was quiet for a moment, and took a long hard look at Matt. "All right, but only if you take Skie with you." Lockore placed his Tuatura friend onto Matt's shoulder. "Skie will come find me if you get in trouble. Be careful though." Lockore gave Matt a wink. "Otherwise I'll kick your butt along with a Death Eaters." Lockore opened the door a crack, to make sure the coast was clear. Guen slinked out and positioned herself in the shadows in the hallway. "Guen will let me know if it's you or not, so will Skie. Bring back those you find as quickly as possible." |
| Posted by: Matt Hamblin Nov 11 2003, 04:56 PM |
| "Alright," Matt agreed. He took the creature and left quietly. |
| Posted by: Dani Dumbledore Nov 11 2003, 04:58 PM |
| dani stood in winder as she watched the exchange between lockore and Matt. Suddenly, she came to her sences. "Matt! You can't leave me here! Wait!" She flung herself after him (having finally gotten back the use of herarms), missed, and landed flat on her face (not having the use of her legs yet). Her heart sank as she watched Matt leave. "Punk." |
| Posted by: Cimber Metallus Nov 11 2003, 05:17 PM |
| Cimber turned when he felt someone tap him on the shoulder and looked into the eyes of Sabrina Esperanza who was trying to convince him that she was all right and asking if she can go back to her Common Room. He shook his head in apology. "I'm sorry, Sabrina, but at the moment we're not sure of what's going on and I'm afraid that I won't be able to allow you to go. Please, just sit back and wait calmly for news. I'm sure you're not the only one who wants to leave this place." He had just turned around to help Bela with unpacking the supplies she was able to get and he sighed in frustration as he saw Lockore discreetly allow Matt to go out. Cimber glared at the Prefect and rolled his eyes, muttering under his breath of Gryffindor bravery and other tosh and pretended that he didn't see anything. He just hoped Matt would be safe. |
| Posted by: Ligeia Harding Nov 11 2003, 05:22 PM |
| Ligeia approached Cimber, "Cimber, is there anything I can do to help you or my mother? I just don't like sitting around here watching this go on. Is there any word of what's going on out there?" she asked pointing to a random wall to signify that she meant anywhere outside the kitchens. Ligeia shook her head to herself, "Why torture the children? What were they thinking! Are they completely that heartless that they'd attack a school full of children? I just wish I could get out and see what was going on or get word what's going on from out there." |
| Posted by: Dani Dumbledore Nov 11 2003, 05:27 PM |
| "A little help, please?" Dani called from the floor where she had fallen. |
| Posted by: Allison Black Nov 11 2003, 05:28 PM |
| Allison nodded silently. "Yes, if there isn't anything I need to help with, I should probably go and help with the recovery efforts. I'm not sick or anything either. I hate sitting around, and I think I can take pretty good care of myself." she said bravely. Ok this is one of the only times it make sence that I was placed in Gryffindor. Allison thought to herself. |
| Posted by: Lazarus Oakenbow Nov 11 2003, 05:28 PM |
| Lazarus frowned as he leaned against the wall and folded his arms slowly. Remaining quiet, he noticed Lockore silence, he fell into that and glanced around. "How about we all be silent, and get your wands out....just...in case," he said slowly and calmly. |
| Posted by: Ligeia Harding Nov 11 2003, 05:29 PM |
| "Dani!" Ligeia said suddenly and ran to her. "Are you okay?" I didn't even see you fall. She gently helped ease Dani up from the ground she had fallen upon. "Is it more comfortable to stand or sit?" |
| Posted by: Kittie Nov 11 2003, 05:38 PM |
| *Kittie pushed herself through the crowd, in search of an adult who knew their countercurses. As soon as she came to someone who looked as though they could help, she pulled the cloak from her mouth, and sputtered: "I hate my hair, Deatheaters are more gentlemen than half the students, I have a birthmark on my heel. I've been attacked with a Babbling Curse., My middle name's Noel, I hate watermelons, my favorite fragerance is Mary Warlock's Destiny, Help me, I have pretty eyeballs, My favorite color is black, I like the smell of muggle gasoline, Peircings rock, I have a tattoo, my mother bakes brownies, I have over 30 pairs of robes and I still don't know the difference between them, I secretly envy Calypso Lestrange, I like the winter, My nose is cold." Kittie squeaked, and shoved the cloak in her mouth again. |
| Posted by: Lazarus Oakenbow Nov 11 2003, 05:48 PM |
| Lazarus swore to himself, in German, and threw open the doors, and walked out. "Moronic atmosphere," he snarled as he left the confines of the ruddy Kitchens. |
| Posted by: Darcie Dracel Nov 11 2003, 06:08 PM |
| Somehow, Darcie had missed hearing about the event in the kitchens. Too much dueling; I’ve been wearing myself out with it. She entered ironically just as Lazarus cursed and walked out, almost bumping into her. Turning quickly, she watched him retreat and turned back to enter, searching for her friends and love. “Hey Kit, hey Li,” she greeted softly, patting their heads as she passed them. |
| Posted by: Fiona Ryan Nov 11 2003, 06:12 PM |
| Fiona curled up in a chair in front of the fireplace and had fallen into a deep sleep. That seemed to be the only thing she really wanted to do since she had woken up was go back to sleep. The fire in the Hospital Wing had rattled her, but she did not want to trouble anyone. ~Fiona~ |
| Posted by: Weebles Nov 11 2003, 06:19 PM |
| *Weebles walked over to the students that were injured and gasped. "Is you alls okay?" he asked. "Can Weebles gets any of yous anything? Madam Pomfrey? Mr. Filch, sir?" |
| Posted by: Aurora Braelin Nov 11 2003, 06:20 PM |
| Aurora looked up at hearing Darcie's voice coming from somewhere in the kitchens. She let her eyes dart around and quickly found her. She waved her hands around, trying to get her attention. She got up to her feet. Her mouth moved, Darcie, but no sound was heard. She quietly grumbled. She looked over at Darcie and slowly moved to her, but also looked for a way out of the kitchens. Something was nagging her about Lazarus. |
| Posted by: Kittie Nov 11 2003, 06:20 PM |
| "Hello Darcie, I have a freckle on my back, I don't like the letter 'U', I want to name my daughter Zita, I've been hit with a Babbling Curse by a Death Eater, Help me, Look both ways before crossing the street, I don't like gold, Mommy I CAN FLY!" Kittie cawed the last part, and shoved the cloak in her mouth again. |
| Posted by: Madam Pomfrey Nov 11 2003, 06:35 PM |
| *Madam Pomfrey looked at all the students knowing they were rather upset. "Miss. Sapphire, I am sorry I can't do anything. My Potions are all in the wing.. Though... Weebles, go to the Hospital wing and get me a gree vile." |
| Posted by: Weebles Nov 11 2003, 06:39 PM |
| *Weebles grinned and bowed to Madam Pomfrey and snapped his fingers. A cloud of smoke grew around him and he was evaporated. |
| Posted by: Matt Hamblin Nov 11 2003, 06:48 PM |
| Matt knocked on the door. "Lockore!" he called. "Let me in! I have a wounded!" |
| Posted by: Weebles Nov 11 2003, 06:48 PM |
| A few minutes later, another cloud of smoke swirled in the Kitchen and *Weebles appeared out of it with a gree(sp) vile in his hand. "Here you is Madam Pomfrey!" *Weebles called, walking up to her and handing her the bottle. "Is thats the vile you is looking for?" |
| Posted by: Matt Hamblin Nov 11 2003, 06:51 PM |
| Matt kicked the door, almost dropping Angélique. "Let me in!" |

| *Madam Pomfrey nodded and handed the vile to Miss. Sapphire. "This will cure it. Thank Merlin its alright! Thank you Weebles." (OOC: IT should be green and Matt you need the PW to get it. Not anyone can let you in. Only a House Elf) |
| Posted by: Matt Hamblin Nov 11 2003, 06:55 PM |
| Mme. Pomfrey!" Matt yelled. "This is Matt, I don't know the password!" He kicked the door again. |
| Posted by: Weebles Nov 11 2003, 06:57 PM |
| *Weebles jolted his head toward the door as he heard banging. He ran toward it, grabbing a pan first. Because you couldn't be too careful with the happenings around Hogwarts. Walking up to it, *Weebles opened the door slowly, and saw two students. One carrying another. He gasped and opened the door wider to let them in fully. |
| Posted by: Matt Hamblin Nov 11 2003, 06:58 PM |
| The door opened an Matt slipped in; he placed Angélique on the floor next to Stella. "I'm going out again," he said as he left. |
| Posted by: Kittie Nov 11 2003, 06:59 PM |
| *Kittie eagerly accepted the vial and removed the cloak from her mouth. "I wi-" But, before the regular stream of babble erupted from her mouth, she downed the contents, and snapped her hands over her mouth. After a few moments, the muffled talking slowly ceased, and she let her face go. "Thank you, Ms. Pomfrey." |
| Posted by: Lazarus Oakenbow Nov 11 2003, 07:03 PM |
| Lazarus banged on the door. "LET. ME. IN! IDIOTS!" he snarled, "That girl, is she okay...Matt I saw what happened," He yelled through the door. He banged again. "IN!" |
| Posted by: Matt Hamblin Nov 11 2003, 07:06 PM |
| "Well, I'm going out Laz!" said Matt. "They let me in because I was carrying a girl." Matt turned and walked the corridor. |
| Posted by: Weebles Nov 11 2003, 07:07 PM |
| *Weebles sighed as he heard another bang. Seeing Matt ready to go, he said, "Just let him in on your way out, if he is to comes in. If he's just heres to be heres, tell hims that he can't because it's for students who is injured." |
| Posted by: Lazarus Oakenbow Nov 11 2003, 07:08 PM |
| "Silence elf," he said walking past him. He looked around to the girl. Finding her he stood over her. "What did you see?" he asked, then frowned. "She spoke French didn't she?" |
| Posted by: Madam Pomfrey Nov 11 2003, 07:09 PM |
| "MR HAMBLIN. IF YOU LEAVE YOU WILL NOT BE ALLOWED BACK IN. SO STAY." |
| Posted by: Angelique_Blanpied Nov 11 2003, 07:10 PM |
| Angélique curled up on the cold floor, starting to shiver. She felt herself drifting off to sleep, and welcomed it. Soon, she was unconcious again. |
| Posted by: Weebles Nov 11 2003, 07:11 PM |
| *Weebles looked surprise as the boy ordered him to be silent. "Sirs, this is the House Elves' kitchen! We is trying to help students, if we isn't to talk, we can't help," he said to the boy student. |
| Posted by: Lazarus Oakenbow Nov 11 2003, 07:14 PM |
| Lazarus looked at the girl, he knelt down. He wanted to know what she saw. "Vous pouvez me comprendre? Qu'avez-vous vu?" he asked, slightly flushing at his poor use of the language. |
| Posted by: Missy Nov 11 2003, 07:15 PM |
| (ooc. I would just like to say right here and now that the entrances and the passageways into and out of the kitchen were magically sealed!!! There is NO WAY that a student would have been able to break those. The only way for the doors to be opened is for the password to be given. the ONLY people who know the password are MADAM POMFREY, ARGUS FILCH and MISSY!!! They are the only ones who can choose to give the password to anyone else. Now, you may try your best to figure it out, but it was pretty clear when it was made that there was NO WAY a student would have overheard the password. Please do not be all powerful and think you can just come and go in the kitchen as you please. As Filch said, it is highly unlikely for anyone to know where the kitchens are, let alone a secret passageway. That said, I will now, put the kitchen back under lock down.... Thank you.) Missy walked out of the little nook, where she spent her nights and gasped when she saw that there where people going through one of the passageways. Scrambling over there as quickly as her legs would take her, she put her hands up in the hair and threw her fingers out. The passageway sealed once more, she made her way to all the other ones as well, doing the same thing, just in case. Smiling inwardly to herself, she set about putting more magic into each seal she had just reinforced, muttering as she did it, "Missy is a goods house elf. Missy does what Madams and Sir tolds her. Missy keeps everyone in and everyone outs. No ones wills bes ables to gets ins and outs now. Missy makes extras sures of thats now. Missy is a good house elf." |

| A voice woke Angélique up again. A voice she didn't recognize. She flinched when she opened her eyes and saw a boy in Slytherin colors standing over her. Then the realized what he had asked. "J'ai oublié," she said, trying to think, but her head hurt too much. "Mon tete, ça fait mal!" |

| Snooper rolled over in his sleep. He was having a nightmare. A death eater walked up to him. "CRUCIO!" Snooper was shaking in his bed. He rolled of his bed and hit the table. He woke up just in time to hold down the contents of his stomach. He shivered. He pulled his blanket over himself curled up in a ball. I wish this all would end! |

| Posted by: Snooper_1989 Nov 11 2003, 07:32 PM |

| "Madam Pomfrey?" Allison asked quietly. "I'm not hurt, I'm not sick, so if there isn't anything you need help with, I should probably go. I mean I can't be much help in here, anyway and I'm mostly taking up space." she said. |

| Posted by: Missy Nov 11 2003, 08:02 PM |
| After locking the kitchen down once more, Missy had another matter to take care of, informing the other house elves of their orders. Missy scrambles over to Weebles and pulls him to the side, disappearing with a 'pop.' Reappearing in a far corner of the kitchen, where there were no students present. Pulling him close, she whispers quietly what she was charged with by Madam Pomfrey and Filch. There was no one around, but you couldn't be too careful. She told him about how they were supposed to keep the kitchen locked down, allowing no one in or out unless they could give them the password that the two adults had established. She also told him that they were supposed to do what ever was necessary to carry out their task. ((ooc. The kitchen is magically sealed.... only myself and now weebles are able to break those seals. And we have very specific things that have to happen in order for us to break the seals. Mainly either the correct password, which you have to figure out IN CHARACTER or a new order from either Madam Pomfrey or Filch, since they gave the original order or Dumbledore, since he is the headmaster.... thank you.)) |
| Posted by: Argus Filch Nov 11 2003, 08:03 PM |
| *Argus Filch sat up slowly at his place by one of the many fireplaces in the Kitchen and looked around the room. He noticed all of the children huddling around each other and sneered before remembering the entire night. Filch frowned and stood slowly, testing to see if he hadn't put his recovery back to far when he went rescuing people last night. A blanket fell off him and he picked it up and, spotting the boy he had carried into the kitchens last night, walked over and crouched by the table. "Hey kid," he said gruffly, unused to being nice to the little... "Snooper right?...Here, take this blanket. No use you getting even worse cause you're down here." Then he walked off without waiting for a reply, this castle was his territory and he wasn't about to let it fall when he had access to places the DE's didn't even know exsisted. 'I wonder where my blasted Great Niece is,' he thought morosely as he walked around the room to check on students. 'She better be safe in her common room or her mother will have my head.' |

| Posted by: Rayya Nov 11 2003, 08:18 PM |
| Rayya glared at Kovar and thought for the hundredth time that having been told to watch over him sucked. She'd lugged him to safety, watched over him, got help when he needed it, got booted in the ribs and not a word of thanks. She winced in pain and groaned, wondering if anyone would help her out, all the while mentally cursing the blue-haired stuck up little monster that she had promised to watch over. |
| Posted by: Snooper_1989 Nov 11 2003, 08:22 PM |

| Posted by: Missy Nov 11 2003, 08:24 PM |
| After telling Weebles about their orders, Missy vanished with a 'pop.' Reappearing a second later where she had originally left from, she heard Filch inquire as to her whereabouts. Scrambling over to him, she looks up. "Missy is glads to sees yous ups, Sir. Missy is proud to helps. Whats cans Missy dos for yous?" |
| Posted by: Argus Filch Nov 11 2003, 08:37 PM |
| *Argus Filch stared around silently at the students before turning to the helpful House Elf. "I'm going out again," he said quietly. "I won't get caught if I keep to the passageways. Use the same password as before when I come back in. I'm going to find more hurt stude...erm my cat." He had already blown his reputation to bits by helping out, he might as well keep it up. 'I am so going to retire after this,' he thought. 'The students won't respect me a bit now.' |

WHY did Kittie have to injure me? walking over to Madame Pomfrey, she overheard what she said to Allison. All her hopes of getting out crashed and she sighed.

| Missy nods and scurries over to the passageway entrance that Filch had been using before. "Yes, Sirs. Missy wills doo good. Missy will remembers. Missy is a good house elf." Putting her hand up, she throws her fingers out, with a few sparks emitting from them. Magically a door appears and opens for Filch to be able to use. "Missy wills be watings for yous to returns, Sir. Missy wills do whats she is supposed to. Missy is a good house elf." |

| Aura stopped moving towards Darcie in mid strid upon hearing Filch say he was leaving again. She stayed close to the door, and held Darcie's hand as she came over to her and waited for the password to be said. Or rather, the snap of a finger. When it happened, Aura and Darcie were out of the kitchens very quickly, without being seen. She hid around the corner to ensure they weren't seen and then sauntered off to the library in research of Lazarus, Darcie in search of Lazarus himself.. Something was not adding up. ((ooc: Don't bother trying to follow me, fellow students. This was something that NEEDED to be done.)) |

| ((OOC: How boring. Who wants to RP talking to me?)) Snooper sat boredly next to Rayya holding her tightly and trying to stop the pain from her ribs. Cursing the teachers lack of attantion to needy students he asked a house elf for some hot chocolate. |

| THE KITCHENS ARE PROTECTED BY A PASSWORD Bella got up from where she had rested and recovered. She looked around the room and then turned to Snooper and Rayya. "How do you feel? Luckily, I *ahem* accidentally packed up the entire stockroom so we have medical supplies. I can run a scan to check for bone damage." |
| Posted by: Snooper_1989 Nov 11 2003, 09:19 PM |

| Alex yawns and stretchs. 'When did I fall asleep...I must have been more tired than I thought...' She thinks as she leans up from the hearth she had ended up leaning on. Looking down, at the makeshift bed where her cousin was sleeping last night, she sits bolt upright. Her cousin was no longer there. Jumping up, she looks around the room, frantically. Her cousin was not in any condition to be anywhere but in bed. She had better hope she was just sitting down when Alex found her, or Aura would not have a very happy cousin on her hands. "Squirt.... Where are you...." She called as she walked around the kitchens. "Merlin... where oculd she have gone... Come on, Aura... don't do this to me..." Alex says worried as she continues to look around. 'Aurora Lindsay Braelin... when I find you, you had better be okay....' Alex thinks to herself. |

| Bella moved her wand down Rayya's body to check for damages. "Well, the good news is that nothing is broken. There are deep internal bruises however, so I'll give you a potion for that, as soon as I find it." She rummaged through the magically re-expanded basket (which occupied a huge space now) casting several Accio's and finally came up with a large stock supply of Bruise-ease. Fortunately, the top was in dropper form so that they didn't need glasses. She lugged the huge bottle back to Rayya. "Rayya dear, if you'll open your mouth, I'll administer about six drops of the potion." |
| Posted by: Snooper_1989 Nov 11 2003, 09:31 PM |

| Posted by: Lady Isabella de Wynter Nov 11 2003, 09:37 PM |
| "No problem." She smiled, a bit sadly. "That's what the hospital assistants are for. IT should be completely healed in a few minutes." Lowering her voice, she added "I wish we could do something for Kovar though.I'd like to know under what conditions his father can spy on him. There's no way to question him without his father finding out. Meanwhile, I need to check if there are any other students who need healing." |

She tried to stand up, but a wave of dizziness overcame her to the point that she vomited. She was shivering again. It was so cold. When her stomach finally calmed, she only had the energy to sit. She wanted to sleep again, but something told her that sleep was bad. Something she remembered from a first-aid class her father had made her take. She had to stay awake, but if she stayed where she was, she'd fall asleep again. If she got up to moved, she'd be dizzy again, and she wasn't sure she wouldn't throw up. Frustrated, hurt, and scared, she started to cry. |

Turning back to Kiara she listened and replied soothingly, "Darling, the most important thing is that you're here now and still alive. I'll get you some pain-relief potion and when I have the hot water, some Chamomile calming potion as well. Perhaps a bit of chocolate for everyone too if we can find it." |

She hurried back to the Stockroom pile to search out the concentrated Chamomile Calming potion mix. Finding another large jug (after all, this was the stockroom supply, not the smaller bottles that were kept in the ward), she lugged it to the kettle and tipped in a few teaspoons - all potions were very potent.

| "Oh...not another one..." Sabrina groaned. Luckily, she wasn't a victim of one, but she still didn't like being stuck here in the Kitchens. She was glad her friends were here, though, unharmed. Sabrina looked over at the Hufflepuff Prefect. She looked a bit cold and worn out, as if she had a really long day. Glancing around, Sabrina spotted a pile of blankets (ooc- There IS one, right?), all a bit burnt, and rushed over, took one and rushed back. She handed it to the Kiara and smiled a tiny smile at Calvin and Gabby. "This is going crazy...I've heard that a few professors are dueling Deatheaters in the Chamber right now..." She shook her head. This was going to be a long day... |

| "If its all about sheer numbers, we've got those Death Eater's licked." Calvin commented as he watched Gabby close her eyes. Thank goodness she had calmed down. "Except that few of us really had any DADA training." Then he realized, "Have you heard from Rini?" Calvin asked Sabrina. He didn't see Rini in the kitchens and was getting worried. |

| Still wandering the kitchens looking for her cousin, Alex stopped dead in her tracks when she heard Filch call out, "De Wynter! She's suffering from smoke inhalation, the Library's on fire," 'Oh no... more are hurt... ' She thought as she quickly turned around and headed back over to where she heard his voice. Hurrying over that direction, she asked as soon as she could see the group again, "Is there any- oh no...." She stopped talking suddenly when she saw just who it was that had been suffering from smoke inhilation. "AURA!! Oh my god... Merlin... she has to be okay... she has to..." Alex says panicing when she was able to find her voice again. "What... where... how... she was... she was right in here... oh... I shouldn't have fallen asleep... I can't believe I fell asleep.... this is all my fault..." Alex began muttering randomly. Her cousin was hurt again. If only she had been more responsible and not fallen asleep. If only she had kept watch like she had promised herself she would. If only she were able to have stopped her... she could have prevented this from happening. Her cousin being hurt was all her fault. She knew it. It was her fault. ((ooc... I know a bit of a delayed reaction... but yeah... I was away. I have to say something though )) |
| Posted by: Rayya Nov 12 2003, 04:12 AM |
| Rayya was glad when Snoop came to join her. Kovar wasn't been much fun - but then again what did she expect as the kid hated her on first sight and she was bored. The Kitchen was fast filling up as more and more students were brought in, most of them injured and/or scared. It was sad that she was here taking up room that could be given to someone else but she had no choice. She sat and listened to the conversations around her wondering if they would ever be able to leave the kitchen and get back to normal. |
| Posted by: Calvin Clawson Nov 12 2003, 05:00 AM |
| Calvin had leaned over on the table to rest a bit. He looked over at Gabby, who was holding together, and then at his Tabby cat who had come and rested at his feet. He sighed and tried to get some rest, but his thoughts kept going back to what happened at the tower and his friends who were still out there. |

| (ooc: great...I leave this alone for some time and then I see that the topic is 20 pages plus long...)

| Posted by: Calvin Clawson Nov 12 2003, 06:33 AM |
| "I'm fine, Cimber, thanks." Calvin said, looking up, glad to see a hospital assistant. He gestured to his friend, Gabby next to him. "We were lucky. But Kaira over there got crucioed. She's resting now. What happened, do you know? How did these Death Eaters get in the castle?" |
| Posted by: Rayya Nov 12 2003, 06:38 AM |

| Posted by: Cimber Metallus Nov 12 2003, 06:51 AM |
| "I wish I knew." Cimber said, answering his question about how the Death Eaters and how they got into the castle. He looked to Kaira. "Has she been looked at by Bela or Madam Pomfrey?" |
| Posted by: Calvin Clawson Nov 12 2003, 07:15 AM |
| "I think so, yes." Calvin answered. Isabella was here a moment ago and she made some calming tea." He looked around at all the students who were afraid, hurt and bored. "How about you? You ok? Must be hectic." |
| Posted by: Cimber Metallus Nov 12 2003, 07:19 AM |
| Cimber sighed, taking a moment to sit down and just get himself familiarized with the crush of the human crowd in the small space. "You don't know half of it. Plus, crowds make me dizzy. Need to sit down every once in a while." |
| Posted by: Aurora Braelin Nov 12 2003, 07:29 AM |
| ((ooc: You think that was delayed, Alex? I can top that...and here we gooooo!)) Aurora was numbly aware of being carried into the Kitchens by someone. She didn't know who. The last thing she remembered was a huge bookshelf falling on top of her trapping her. The fire was licking at her face, causing it to burn and blister, turning her skin black on oneside of her face. She was then waken up by Isabella and she began to cough as fresh air intruded her smoke filled lungs. She twisted over onto her side, and then back onto her back after hitting some of the blisters. Her eyes darted around the room, seeing Alex and Isabella. She inwardly smiled at herself. 'I have the information I need...' She glanced around again, then rested her head on the blanket, still coughing loudly. |
| Posted by: Calvin Clawson Nov 12 2003, 07:44 AM |
| Calvin turned when he heard someone cough, it was Aurora, the girl Mr. Filch carried in. She was awake, that was a good sign. He smiled her way. He didn't think she'd remember but the last time they'd met she threw him out of the forbidden forest. |
| Posted by: Gabrielle de Lancret Nov 12 2003, 07:48 AM |
| Everything had seemed to pass by in a haze for Gabby after she saw the Death Eater attack that Hufflepuff prefect. She felt herself being hustled along through the halls until they came to the what she vaguely recognised as the kitchens. She heard Calvin talking to a few other people, but then she kept looking around and seeing injured people, and this only caused her to shrink even deeper into her shell. She closed her eyes, hardly daring to remember what happened earlier - but then it all came flooding back and she squeezed herself into a tiny ball. The Death Eater's cold voice, the wand aiming straight at her ... then the Hufflepuff prefect coming to rescue them, her attack ... She was reeled back once more into the past, a time she had never forgotten, a time when she knew she could never ever forget ... She shut her eyes tighter and bit back on a whimper - Merlin, was she never going to be able to overcome that fear? |
| Posted by: Calvin Clawson Nov 12 2003, 07:56 AM |
| A slight whimper from beside him called Calvin's attention. It was Gabby, and she was terrified. Who could blame her, after what had happened? Calvin was as scared as he had ever been, and he hadn't even been through what Gabby ahd been through. He moved closer to his friend. "Gabby? We're safe here." He told her aand smiled reassuringly. |
| Posted by: Cimber Metallus Nov 12 2003, 08:02 AM |
| Cimber looked at the girl whom Calvin called Gabby to find her whimpering and wrapped in a tight ball. "Gabi, may I call you that? I'm Cimber, one of the Hospital Wing Assistants." Cimber asked before continuing. "Could you tell me what's wrong?" |
| Posted by: Gabrielle de Lancret Nov 12 2003, 08:12 AM |
| Gabby opened one of her eyes slightly to see a strange boy looming over her and she retreated further into the corner she was in. He said his name was Cimber and he was a Hospital Wing Assistant - but her terrified mind could only register him as some sort of Healer and she didn't like Healers. She shook her head frantically and shut her eyes tightly again. |
| Posted by: Calvin Clawson Nov 12 2003, 08:21 AM |
| "Bad experience with healers." Calvin explained to Cimber. He held Gabby's shoulders and talked to her in a soft voice. "Gabby... everything's going to be fine. We're safe here. I'm here with you." Seeing her shivering in terror tore at Calvin. He didn't feel like much of a big brother at the moment. |
| Posted by: Gabrielle de Lancret Nov 12 2003, 08:29 AM |
| Gabby heard Calvin whispering calming words to her but she could barely take it all in - she was too frightened, too terrified to do anything. She was so afraid that the Death Eater might come back and attack them all again. Feeling tears sting her eyes, she buried her face in her arms and turned away from her friend. |
| Posted by: Calvin Clawson Nov 12 2003, 08:39 AM |
| Calvin sat silently next to Gabby. She was so fragile, Calvin was afraid this whole experience would leave lasting emotional scars, something which she didn't need more of. He wished there was something he could do to take her pain and fear away. |
| Posted by: Stella Thorpe Nov 12 2003, 11:30 AM |
| Stells was definitely not in any pain at the moment, and was, in fact angry. Angry at the fact that they all had to hide in the Kitchens, angry at the Death Eaters for causing all this trouble. But most of all she was angry because there was nothing she could do. Hogwarts had been breached, no one was safe, and she was better off in this safe place, so knew. But I've got to help do something, not just sit here! Even if I do get hurt again, at least I know I've tried to help. she thought, and in that moment her mind was made. With a mask of calm over her face, Stella rose from her chair and swiftly and silently walked out of the Kitchens, not even bothering to look back. |

| *Kiara_Draten took the blankets gratefully. The pain was just about gone now, and she was beginning to feel warmth again. She still had the feeling deep down. The feeling that she didnt do enough to stop the DE. She could have tried harder. she could have ignored the pain, and took another go at him. But she didnt. Im sorry, Mum. Kiara thought, I didnt get revenge on your death... (OOC- Im using school comps. I will be on later on.) |

A reminder.... the ONLY people who have the password and can enter and exit are FILCH, MADAM POMFREY, MISSY, and WEEBLES... and the other house elfs when they get involved (if they do). Not to mention... in the books the location of the kitchen is not something easily found, let alone the secret passageways. Please... think about if you should logically be here before you post. Thank you.) Missy made her way around the room, double checking that her seals were still holding. Filch and Madam Pomfrey told her to make sure no one would be able to get in or out and that was just what she was going to do. Unless the password was given she would not release the seals, that is what her instrustions were. As she wandered the kitchen checking the seals, she paused every so often to inquire if she could get anything for one of the many students who were now in the kitchens. "Can Missy gets you anything Sirs and Misses? Missy makes sure evryones is safes and comfortables. Missy is a good house elf." |

(OOC: Sorry!  )Unfortunately one of the house elfs must have put an enchantment on her that made her return to the cursed Kitchen automatically. ''I hate this...'' she mumbled under her breath, pouting and not even bothering to notice anyone around her. |

| Angélique was alone again. She hurt all over. Her head pounded, and her shoulder was beginning to throb with ever more intensity. She must have hit a wall when she was thrown across the room. She looked around her, trying to focus through the haze of pain, for someone familiar. Then she saw Stella, one of her cousin Matt's friends. Maybe she could help. Gingerly, she stood up and limped over to where Stella was. She almost threw up again, but managed to hold it in. She nearly collapsed when she reached Stella, and started to cry again. She was frightened. Death Eaters were taking over the school and she wasn't even sorted yet. Angélique took deep breaths to control her rebelling stomach. She was shivering again. She looked at Stella and asked quietly "Eet 'urts. Weel you 'elp?" |

| Cimber was nearby thankfully and heard the girl's plea for help. He walked quickly to her and assisted her in the best way he could. "I'm Cimber, one of the Hospital Wing assistants. Can you tell me what happened to you? What are you feeling?" |

| *Nearly Headless Nick had been floating around the castle, trying to make sure the students were safe. Being a ghost he had the advantage of being able to just float through the walls and floors and not have to worry about using doors or passageways. Floating up through the floor boards, he stops suddenly as he sees multiple students, a couple professors, and staff. Looking around, he spots several from his house and many from the other houses. 'Thank Merlin they are okay.... at least some of them are safe.... for now...' "Somebody did do something to keep people out and I must say... people who need to be here in.... right?" |
| Posted by: Matt Hamblin Nov 12 2003, 05:16 PM |
| Matt pounded on the doors. "Cimber! Mme. Pomphrey! anyone! let me back in!" Matt yelled. "I have a severelly wounded person, here!" He put Leo on the floor leaning against the wall, by the portrait of the fruit. "I Know I can't come back in!" he called. "But Leo needs to come in! He has wounds on his legs and back and he's bleeding!" |

| Angélique looked up at Cimber. She couldn't help but be a little frightened. "Ai saw a flash ov red laight," she explained. "Eet threw me across zee room. Ai must 'ave 'it zee wall. Mai 'ead....ça fait très mal..." She struggled to move back into English. "Eet 'urts, verry mush. Mai shoulder and bahck aussi." She tried not to cry, it only made her head hurt worse. |
| Posted by: Cimber Metallus Nov 12 2003, 05:26 PM |
| Cimber looked around frantically for anyone who can open the door. He pursed his lips as he can't seem to find anyone who had the password. He cursed under his breath and made his way towards the door. "Matt! I'm sorry but I can't open the door! I need Madam Pomfrey to come and get you! Please hold on a bit! Can you tell me what's wrong with them? You can just improvise for a while!" |

THUS, BRINGING WOUNDED THERE IS A NO-NO. YOU DON'T KNOW THAT THE WING HAS BEEN MOVED. THUS, BRINGING INJURED IS STILL A NO-NO. It's really not that hard people. |

| (ooc: Matt has been in the Kitchens before, but someone let him out. He knows the way. Can't be clear on the others though.) Cimber turned for a while to Angelique and tried to understand her the best he could. "Your whole body aches I assume. Wait here, I'll get something for you." He hurried towards the place where the supplies were and was relieved when he was able to find what he needed. He hurried back to Angelique and handed her the potion. "Drink it. It's pain-relieving potion." |

Suddenly noticing a transparent head poking from the ground, she covered a mouth to stop herself from screaming before she realized that it was Nearly Headless Nick. "Hello Nick. I suppose there are a few more, but most should be in here..." (ooc- A ghost can come in, right? Since they can float through stuff...) |
| Posted by: Cimber Metallus Nov 12 2003, 05:48 PM |
| (ooc: How very kind of you, Az. Yes, very Slytherin you are...) He smiled at Elsie who came out of nowhere. "Hello Elsie, thank you for being around. I'm sure everyone appreciates the House Elves' help." He sighed and looked at the closed door. "I wish we could open it though. There are people waiting outside." |

| *Nearly Headless Nick floats over to Cimber, "May I be of assitance, Mr. Metallus? What is keeping the doors sealed? I may not be able to help heal her or get her in until Poppy or Argus are available, but I may be able to see how bad off he is..." Floating over to the wall where the sound was coming from, he pokes his semi severed head through. Widening his eyes he thinks, 'A Gryffindor... one of mine...' Giving Mr. Hamblin a small reassuring smile, he says, "We'll do what we can. As soon as we can open the doors we will." Pulling his head back in, he floats back over to Cimber and lowers his voice, so no one else could hear him. "He needs help... and soon..." |
| Posted by: Elsie Nov 12 2003, 05:52 PM |
*Elsie looked up at the student and nodded. "*Elsie wishes we could too. Is there no way to help those outside?" she asked wringing her hands. "I is scared that those mean men is going to hurt Sirs and Misses!" Taking a shaky breath Elsie ran back into the depths of the kitchens. *Elsie returned with a hot pizza. "Eat Sirs and Misses. You is needing strength." she said grateful to have something to do. |

| Missy scampers over to join Elsie, "Elsie, We's not alloweds to opens them. Missy was tolds to not lets snyones in or outs with out Sir and Madam's password. Missy does what she is supposed tos. Missy is a good house elf." Missy pulled Elsie to the side and vanished with a 'pop' to inform her what the password was and the orders that were given. (ooc. password: "You may not capitulate or back down, but we will never surrender!" per Argus and Poppy.... and NO STUDENTS know it... only the house elfs and Argus and Poppy.) |

| Posted by: Cimber Metallus Nov 12 2003, 05:57 PM |
| "Thank you, Sir." Cimber said just as the ghost of Gryffindor went through the door and then came back in later with a grave look in his face. "He needs help... and soon..." Cimber shook his head dismally. "Leo...I don't suppose you can hold things can you, Sir Nick?" He looked around desperately but he couldn't find anyone who could open the door. He sighed in frustration. He glanced at Elsie who was trying her best to help the students and wished he could go outside. "Is there anything I can do to help them out there? I wish I could." |
| Posted by: Elsie Nov 12 2003, 06:03 PM |
| "Should Elsie make more food Sirs and Misses? Is anyone wanting a drink?" she asked fidgeting with her scarf. She wanted the distraction cooking and cleaning usually gave her. Seeing the students were not eating she looked up, her green eyes unusually large. "Please eat Sirs and Misses, you need energy. Elsie can always make more." |
| Posted by: Nearly Headless Nick Nov 12 2003, 06:05 PM |
| *Nearly Headless Nick shakes his head sadly, blushly slightly silver. "No... I am unable to hold anything other than ghostly objects... I wish otherwise... but no... And even if I were able... they would be unable to float through the door with me." "Who is able to open the door?" Sir Nicholas asks glancing around. "I expect the house elves have sealed them... who is in charge down here? We should find them." |
| Posted by: Elsie Nov 12 2003, 06:20 PM |
| "*Elsie is not in charge..." Elsie said slowly. "I is thinking you is needing Dobby...but he has been gone for ages. Perhaps Glancey or Missy knows? *Elsie just cooks and cleans....is the door not having a password?" *Elsie inquired. "Is it not working?" |
| Posted by: Matt Hamblin Nov 12 2003, 06:30 PM |
| "Missy!" said Matt through the door. "I gotta get Leo in! He's in a bad way!" Matt sat on the floor with his wand out and suddenly said "Cimber! teach me a healing spell to stop the bleeding!" |
| Posted by: Alexandria Davis Nov 12 2003, 06:43 PM |
| ((ooc.... very delayed... once again.... )) Sitting down next to her cousin, as she laid on the blanket she was placed on, Alex watched her quietly. She couldn't believe that Aura would actually leave the safety of th kitchen. How could she do that? Better yet, how could Alex have allowed her to do that. She had fallen asleep and because of that, her cousin escaped. Glancing up, she sees Sir Nicholas float over to the door. Her curiosity piqued, she listens to see what all was going on. She saw him talking quietly with Cimber, but she couldn't really hear anything they were saying. Sighing, she returned her attention to her cousin. Pulling out her journal that she always carried with her, she begins to write in it as she watches over Aura. |
| Posted by: Aurora Braelin Nov 12 2003, 06:53 PM |
| Aurora looked over at Quack and saw the sadness in her face. "Q-Q-Quack?" she croaked and coughed, knowing this was the first time Alex had heard her voice. She looked into her eyes with sadness of her own. "I-I know....what you're....thinking," she rasped. "I-I can feel your....emotions....remember?" She winced as she turned her head, giving Alex a full view of her face, the burn marks trailing down her neck. "I'm sorry," she whispered. "I had to...I now know...what I need to....know." She closed her eyes for a second to try and stop her tears from falling, but failed. One slid out of the corner of her eye and trailed down the side of her face, washing a thin trail of blood away. Aurora sat up slowly and gave Alex a tight, yet gentle hug and just held on tight to her. |
| Posted by: Alexandria Davis Nov 12 2003, 07:50 PM |
| Alex embraced her cousin. She knew Aura could feel her emotions right now, ranging from being angry at herself, to disappointed in Aura, to scared for her. Truth be told, she didn't really care about herself and her own safety, but she did care about her cousin. She had always vowed to keep her safe. She had made a promise to her Mum, to her Dad, and herAunt and Uncle. In fact, that was his last request to her. 'Some job I'm doing... not counting the other things.. she has now been attacked.. not once... but twice.... and its all my fault... I should have done something to prevent it...' Releasing her cousin from the hug, she puts her journal down, open. Glancing at it, she sighs as she realises she hadn'twrote a thing on it but three words. It's my fault. Flipping the book closed on her quill, she gets up and walks over to where she saw the sinks last night in her wanderings. Searching for a rag and a bowl in various cupboards, she smiles slightly when she finds them. 'At least I can help do this... maybe prevent an infection...' She thinks as she fills the bowl with water. Returning to her cousin, she silently begins to wash the blood that was on her burned face off gently. Every so often she rinses the rag in the water. After getting most of it off, she pulls out her wand, the new one her cousin bought her for Christmas. Pointing it at her cousin's robes, she whispers, "Scourgify." She then untucked her shirt and gritted her teeth as she tore the bottom portion off. Pointing her wand at it, she whispers, "Scourgify." She then gets up, taking it and the bloody water and rags over to the kitchen area again. Getitng rid of the water and the rags, she damps the piece of her shirt with cold water, then returns to her cousin. Her muggle first aid training was getting its use tonight. She may not know wizard medicine, but she did know her muggle first aid. Sitting back down, she gently places, the cool damp cloth on Aura's face where the burns were. She wanted to try and take the heat out of the burn and make it more comfortable for her until Madam Pomfrey or one of the assitants would be able to do something more permanent. |

| Aurora gasped as Alex cleaned her wound. She knew Alex was being gentle, well, as gentle as can be. She closed her eyes tight as Alex got rid of the blood and winced. When done, she felt her robes being cleaned from the soot and ashes and she smiled greatfully at Alex. "Thanks," she murmured lowly and coughed. Aurora watched Alex move to wet a piece of her shirt that she ripped apart. She placed it over her cheek lightly and held it there. "Thanks again," she whispered. Aurora looked into Alex's eyes with her own painfilled ones and sighed. "Alex, Darcie left with me. She's not here. I'm worried..." |
| Posted by: Matt Hamblin Nov 12 2003, 08:23 PM |
| Matt, still outside the door to the Kitchens, took off his cloak and his shirt. He ripped the shirt in narrow strips and tied them on the back of Leo's legs holding the wounds together. Then he ripped Leo's shirt similarly and tied strips holding larger pieces of ripped shirt as bandages to his damaged back. He tied them as tightly as possible to keep pressure on the wounds and to keep them from bleeding. |
| Posted by: Sabrina Esperanza Nov 12 2003, 08:40 PM |
| THE KITCHENS ARE PROTECTED BY A PASSWORD. DO NOT ENTER UNLESS YOU ARE WITH MADAME POMFREY OR MR. FILCH Sabrina noticed a few people calling through the locked door and went over curiously to see what was going on. It seemed like a student outside the kitchens was bleeding badly. "Erm...I don't know if this will help much, but you might want to lift the wound above heart level so the blood will stop faster. But it depend on where the wound is...of course..." She bit her lip as she called through the door. |
| Posted by: Alexandria Davis Nov 12 2003, 08:45 PM |
| "Alex, Darcie left with me. She's not here. I'm worried..." Aura had said looking into Alex's eyes. Averting her eyes, Alex sighs. How could she tell her? She knew she had not seen Darcie since they left the smoldering wing. Alex had awaken her and she knew Darcie had got out, but she had never seen her come in. Alex was too worried about keeping her eye on Aura while Mr. Filch carried Aura through the passage, which she obviously did not do too good of a job since Aura was able to sneak out of the make shift hospital wing. Taking a deep breath, she decides to just tell her what she knew. "Squirt... I... I haven't seen her since we all left the wing... I'm sorry... I don't know where she is... She isn't here... believe me... I have searched this entire kitchen... looking for you actually..." Noticing her journal still there, she pulls the quill out of it, and closes it completely, grateful that Aura had not seen what she had wrote on it. Putting it all away in her bag, she sighs. It was going to be a long night... day... however long. Truth be told, she wasn't sure how long they were going to be here. She didn't even know what was going on outside the kitchen, which was something she really did not like. She herself felt a need to get out of here, but there was no way she could leave her cousin, especially in the shape she was in. Though, her thoughts did keep going out to her best friends. She had not seen them. None of them were here. If they weren't here, they were out there with the deatheaters and she was stuck in here with out being able to do anything. She didn't know why, but she didn't have a good feeling about that. If she knew Tempest, Snitch, and for that matter Juli at all, she knew they would not be sensible and be safely in their dorms. |

| "No, Quack...I saw Darcie before I snuck out....she came with me and split off...." she whispered to her. Aurora lay back down on the blanket and looked up at the ceiling, worried and praying to her parents to get everyone through this. "Alex, I know you're dissappionted in me..." she whispered. "Please...don't be. I had to..." |
| Posted by: Alexandria Davis Nov 12 2003, 09:07 PM |
"You saw her.... here? Good... wait... she went with you? She didn't stop you?!" Alex stops talking as quickly has she had started. She didn't want to keep talking and let her frustrations out. Not until her cousin was okay, that is. Then would most likely be a very different story. (( your in trouble...  ))Alex sighed and took a few deep breaths before continuing. "Squirt... I was worried when I didn't see you here when I woke up... I shouldn't have fal.... I didn't know where you were... or what you were doing... and look what happened... look at the result of... nevermind... I'm not gonna go into this now..." Alex said trailing off at almost every thought she had started. This in itself showed how frustrated, worried, and scared she really was. She wasn't able to make a complete sentence and now was not the time to say the complete sentences she knew she could get out. |
| Posted by: Sabrina Esperanza Nov 12 2003, 09:14 PM |
| Sabrina sighed and went back to sit with Gabby and Calvin. Humming a sad tune, she noticed another girl writing in her journal and pulled her's out too. (viewable in my siggy) It was a bit charred from the fire and Sabrina slowly opened it, letting out a sigh of relief when she saw that only the edges were burned. She wrote and wrote, feeling that this was the only way to let out her sorrow. Writing faster and faster, the writing became very bad with grammatical errors. Her handwriting was messy, but she didn't care... |
| Posted by: Aurora Braelin Nov 12 2003, 09:22 PM |
| Aurora looked at Alex who was having trouble staying on one sentence. '"Squirt... I was worried when I didn't see you here when I woke up... I shouldn't have fal.... "' went through her mind. "You shouldn't have what? Fallen asleep? Excuse you for being human Alex!" she spat. She took a deep breath. "Sorry, Alex. I know you were worried. I KNOW! I feel your emotions! Yes Darcie was with me! But she had something to do! We both did. I'm lucky I went when I did, otherwise, I wouldn't have read what I did!" she snarled viciously at Alex. Aurora stood up, against her better judgement and looked down at Alex seeing her for nothing more then a hypocrite at the moment. "What about you!? Hmmmm? Sneaking off into the forest without telling me! Writing into your journal saying it's your fault! YES! I READ WHAT YOU WROTE! I'm not blind anymore! But I guess that's what I'll always be to you! A blind child who knows nothing about the wizarding world! You're wrong! I know more then you think I do. "Go on, Alex. Stick to your pranking group. GO RUN INTO THE FOREST AND GET KILLED! SEE IF I CARE!" Truth be told, she did care. Her eyes darted around again, and landing on Alex. "A little kid. That's all I am in your eyes. Everything that's happened to me is your fault! I've got knews for you! IT'S NOT! I am my own person! I'm grown! I don't care what you promised to your mother, father or my mother or father! I don't care. I really don't! "I didn't wake you up for a reason! That reason is : You wouldn't have woken me up either..." Aurora left the arguement at that and moved to the other side of the kitchen, huddled in a corner with tears streaming down her face. The wet ripped shirt had fallen to the floor in the middle of the arguement and Aura felt the heat set in her skin again. ((OOC: Trouble? I think not...if anything, Quack, dear, you are.)) |
| Posted by: Alexandria Davis Nov 12 2003, 09:54 PM |
| Alex blinked a few times after hearing her cousin go off on her. She didn't know what surprised her more. Her cousin yelling at her in a kitchen full of students, her having read the little she had in her journal, or the fact that she was feeling a real urge to tell her cousin exactly what was on her mind and not wait. Making a quick decision, Alex stands up and follows her cousin, grabbing the piece of shirt on her way. Alex hadn't wanted to get into this now, not with her cousin being hurt. But if she wanted to talk now, they would talk. Standing in front of her cousin, she puts her hands on her hips and her foot out, a position she commonly found her mother in when she was angry. Shaking that thought from her mind, she takes a breath to say what she had on her mind. "Aurora Lindsay... do not walk away... you want to have this out now, then we will. But do not walk away from me. I never said I saw you as a little kid, but you walking away like this is acting like a little kid. You say you have grown up, well act it. Stay and have this out with me and don't walk away and cower. Act like the Braelin I know you are." "And... first off when I go in the forest... I am careful!!! AND I ALWAYS HAVE A GOOD REASON!!!! Not to mention I have never been hurt while in the forest.... you can not say the same thing. And don't deny it. You would think that someone who had just been ATTACKED BY DEATHEATERS would think to not go looking for trouble. That is one thing I can say... I don't go asking for trouble. Leaving this kitchen was foolish. I never thought I would ever say that about you, but yes. You were foolish. You should not have left at all period. That is all there is to it." Sitting down, she sighs. Aura was right about that part in the end... she wouldn't have told her prior to leaving either, because she knew Aura would stop her just like she would've to Aura, if she was given the chance. She had tears forming in her eyes also, from being so frustrated, from being so angry, from being so sad, and from the thought that her cousin didn't care. Though, she knew that couldn't be true. She was feeling quite the opposite from her. She couldn't believe she just laid into her cousin like that, especially when she was injured. Rememebring the cloth in her hand, she raises it to put back on Aura's face and whispers, "Here... let me put this back...." She may be feeling all these things, but some things would never change. She would still want to try to take care of and protect her cousin. No matter what. |

| Matt checked on Leo. His breathing and heart rate were slow but normal. His bleeding had mostly stopped. "I think Leo is going to be ok." He picked up the student, threw him over his shoulder like a sack of potatoes and began to descend the stairs. [Matt's and Leo's story continues in Search And Rescue, open to victims of attacks. |
| Posted by: Aurora Braelin Nov 12 2003, 10:21 PM |
| Aurora looked at Alex stunned, her tears forgotten. She glared at Alex. "Who the hell do you think you are? I walked away from you because I said my bit. There was nothing else to say, but yet, here we go again. One! YES I was in the forest. No denying that! But because of ME, two people weren't attacked! ARE YOU GOING TO STAND THERE AND SAY THAT ISN'T REASON ENOUGH?" she spat. "FOOLISH!?!?! I just learned how to save some one and you stand there and call me foolish!?! You're pathetic! You didn't even ask WHY I left in the first place! Somethings are worth the risk! Yea! Remember that word, Alex? RISK! There is always RISK in LOVE! I took the bloody risk, Alex! BUT I'M STILL HERE! I'm here and I'm living on my own two feet like I want to! Aurora swatted Alex's hand away from her face. "I'd rather burn," she said. "I deserve it in your eyes, don't I? I was foolish. BUT SO WHAT? It's not like if I die something happens to you physically. However, if you die, so do I. It's pretty much a one way street for me! You think this is easy? "I had once begged you to stay before you went sauntering off into the forest. I understood in the end. And you're going to understand me now," she said with finality in her voice. "I DID IT ONCE! I'D DO IT AGAIN! You can't stop me in anyway short of death and the only way that would happen, is by your death. "You must think I'm weak, Alex. That I'm not a strong kid who will break at the smallest of pain or suffering! I had told you once to stop treating me like glass. You clearly didn't get the message. Let me spell it out for you!" Aurora took out her old wand and pointed it in thin air writing in blue writing.STOP TREATING ME LIKE GLASS!!!!!!!! "Need me to make it bigger?" she waved her wand again and the lettering got bigger. STOP TREATING ME LIKE GLASS!!!!!!!! With that, Aurora looked at Alex again. "I refuse to be treated like this. You are so condescending! Wake up, Alexandria. You can't protect me anymore. We're through!" Aurora looked at the bracelet on her wrist. She took it off and looking in Alex's eyes, let it fall to the floor. "I don't see any room in your life for me. Find someone else to be condescending to. This Braelin won't have it anymore. I'm not glass; I won't break." No sooner had she said that then blod came trickling down her forehead. A shard of wood had entered her head when she was trapped under the shelf. She noticed the blood drip off. 'Where'd this come from?' She reached up and felt the back of her head, gasping as she came across the shard of wood the size of her finger. "Ale....x..." she said looking up at her again with worry in her voice. |

| After thirty-five minutes of searching and almost dropping Rachel fifty times, the two Hufflepuffs found their way int the kitchens. "Madam Pomfrey?" Sharon asked almost completely out of breath, as she leaned against a wall. She blinked heavily and set Rachel down on the floor, before sitting down next to her. "Well, that was a fun little romp through the halls, now wasn't it?" Even though Sharon was every single emotion you could think of at this point, she still hadn't lost her sence of humor. Hopefully, nothing would take that from her. Sharon put a hand on Rachel's shoulder and smiled. "I'm pretty sure you're going to be fine now." She sighed and then stood back up, "I'm going to try and find some sort of authority for Hufflepuff. You stay here until you're better, alright?" With one last tired smile, Sharon looked around and then left; hoping that Rachel would be safe there. She really wanted to stay, but Sharon had other things to attend to. |

(OOC: Mr. Moore there is no way you could get into the kitchen with out having the Password WHICH YOU DON'T HAVE. So I am sorry but you don't have the PW so please don't post as if you are there. This is to all of you. If you were not in the HW or we did not save you then you are not in the kitchens. So either wait until we get you or help each other. I am sorry but we put SPELLS on the Kitchen if you read this:
Then you will see that you cannot post. I know it isn't fair but if anyone can get into the kitchens then DE's would be attacking. I do know that Professor Prewett told me that if Huffie is attacked their is a passage so they can get to the Kitchens so I take that is the reason why Miss Beshaba posted in here. Please please please do not post in here as if you can just get in because it isn't possible. Anyways, thank you for your attention and please do not ignore this post. Madam Pomfrey) |

| Alex waved her hand through the blue writing Aura had put in the air. She did not have the patience or the state of mind right now to play light brite with wands. "I do not treat you like glass. I only look out for your well being. When you are injured, I worry more and I look out for you more. I have to! I promised I would! It was the last thing your father asked of me. How can I go against what he wanted. That was the one thing he asked... and I seem to fail it again and again. So forgive me if I get a bit upset when you make it more dificult for me by looking for trouble. I know this may sound awful... but YOU are my priority. I care about you being safe more than myself or anyone else. I know you had good intentions... but you are my cousin... my surrogate sister at that. I will always worry..." Alex stopped suddenly as she watched Aura pull off her bracelet. Picking it up sadly, she looks up just in time to see her look faint and stutter out her name. Throwing the bracelet in her pocket, she quickly gets up and steadies her cousin, walking her back to the blanket she was on, sitting her down. Doing the first thing she could think of, she tore her shirt again, and pulled out her wand, "Scourgify!" Taking the now clean piece of shirt, she bundles it up around the piece of wood. She didn't want to remove it, because muggle first aid taught you not to, unless you could for sure stop the bleeding. Holding it on tight, she searched the room for one of the medical assitants or Madam Pomfrey. "It'll be okay, Squirt.... it'll be okay..." |

| *Madam Pomfrey looked at Miss. Braelin and felt pity for the girl. So much has happened to her over the months and she felt helpless but she knew she could do something. "Miss. Braelin. Its going to be alright dear." Poppy said healing the girls burns and scratches. Noticing the wood in her head she magically removed it and used some water and magical supplies to heal it stopping the blood. "Its alright now. How about something to eat?" |

| *Alexandria Davis looked up as Madam Pomfrey healed Aura's wounds. Giving her a grateful smile, she says, "Thank you Madam Pomfrey... I didn't know what else to do for this..." Looking down at the blood stained shirt piece in her hand, she sighs. She couldn't believe she had just been yelling at her cousin. She was awful. How could she do that when Aura was injured? Stopping her thoughts as a gong like sound went through the castle, she looks up wide eyed at Madam Pomfrey, "What in the name of Merlin was THAT?" |

Overhearing the Ravenclaw's question, Sir Nicholas floats over to her and down so he was on the same level as her since she was on the floor. "Miss Davis, is it? Miss Davis... that was the sound of our reinforcements. That was a glorious sound indeed." (ooc.

| "Wonderful!" Bella grinned. " Now, onto more practical concerns, are there any students who need medical help? hmm, oh Ligeia? I'm not sure, she's probably here somewhere." |
| Posted by: Madam Pomfrey Nov 13 2003, 12:31 AM |
| "I'm not sure, there are so many children in here and we will Probably get more." Just then Poppy got an idea "Sir Nicholas!" She said walking over to the ghost. "Do you think you can find Professors and give them the Password? She asked WHISPERING (That means no one else knows it) it into his ear. |
| Posted by: Nearly Headless Nick Nov 13 2003, 12:35 AM |
| *Nearly Headless Nick nods. "I was just going to suggest that very thing, Poppy. I happened upon here when I was looking around the castle to see if any one needed me to get them help... since I can't physically do it myself.. you know.." Sir Nicholas trails off a bit blushing silver at his own 'handicaps.' Repeating the password once, in a whisper so no one other than Poppy heard him to confirm, he nods his head, and says, "I shall return when I can... Keep your hopes and heads high." With that he floats down through the floor on his way to search for any professors or others who need help. |

| *Nearly Headless Nick floated to the portrait of the fruit. "Oliver... I'll be right back. I need to give one of the house elfs the password so they will release the seal... the normal method doesn't work." Sir Nicholas than floated through wall next to the portrait and into the kitchen that was getting rather full. Finding the first house elf he could, he whispered low so no one else could hear, "You may not capitulate or back down, but we will never surrender." He pointed to the door he needed opened and smiled slightly as he saw the house elf get to the door and release the seals. Sir Nicholas then turned quickly to Poppy, "Oliver and Miss Avalon are carrying in Miss Lopez, and Mrs. Lestrange... they all need medical attention.... even Oliver. I wouldn't let him leave until you take care of his burns and cuts... they are pretty bad..." |

| Missy widened her eyes when the ghost floated over to her. She wasn't used to ghosts coming near her. Sure, she had seen them, but that didn't make her any less aprehensive of them. Nodding her head once when he whispered the password, she scrambles quickly to the door he had indicated. Putting her hand up, she throws her fingers out and little sparks emit. She then proceeded to open the portrait hole. "Come in Sir and Misses, Come in. Missy is proud to helps. Missy does what she is tolds ands opens the seal for you. Sirs and Madam is over theres." Missy says pointing in the directions of Madam Pomfrey, Sir Nicholas, and Filch. |
| Posted by: Oliver Wood Nov 13 2003, 01:59 AM |
| Oliver heaved a sigh of relief as he stumbled into the kitchens, he was so tired, laying down the bleeding girl on a table he found in the kitchen, Oliver slumped down on a chair. Looking down at the blood soaked shirt he was wearing, Oliver immediatly flashed back to the last time he'd seen a situation like this.... ...it was cold out, winter. The building being used as a hospital was delapedated, but it was the best they could do given the circumstances. Oliver looked around, seeking out his friend, ignoring the blood on his robes. Looking back and forth and walking from makeshift bed to makeshift bed, Oliver couldn't find his childhood friend. Stopping the nearest mediwitch Oliver said, "Excuse me...where did they put Aaron Wright?" The mediwitch had looked at him a bit blankly then bustled off towards a table. "If he's here, he's in this registar son." She'd said. Oliver had sat heavily in the chair at the desk, running a finger down the page in front of him. He stopped at the name he was seeking. There was a red X beside it...there were so many of those X's. Jumping up and not wanting to admit the thoughts running through his head, Oliver grabbed another mediwitch and said, "There is a mistake...what does a red X mean?" The witch had looked at him sympathetically and started to speak, but Oliver hadn't listened, he had walked from the room out into the cold sunlight and wondered again, how all of this had come to be. The feeling of loss and emptiness so great that it was almost unbearable. Eyes refocusing, Oliver took in the sights around him, looking down at his hands, which were covered in blood from the girl he'd carried, Oliver felt his head swim. Closing his left hand around the bloodied bandage Oliver winced at the pain and felt so weary that he couldn't keep his eyes open any longer. Weaving for a moment, Oliver allowed his head and arms to slump onto the table next to the unconcious student. |

| Kyra stumbled into the Kitchens and lay Genevieve down on a table near Professor Wood's charge and sat down quickly, shaking her head slowly. The dizzyness had mostly gone away and she could see straight, but everything was still blurry. 'Why can't I see properly?' she thought in desperation. 'What's wrong with my eyes?' The walk through the halls had been horrible, she hadn't been able to keep steady and had almost fallen twice. She had only managed to stay upright due to sheer will power and now she just wanted to sleep. Her head still hurt and the bruise was throbbing painfully, keeping her from falling unconsious anytime soon. Kyra shut her eyes for a few moments as her vision went dark and leaned against the table until the latest dizzy spell had passed. When she opened her eyes again everything was even more blurry, in the hall her vision had been good enough to see everything, it was just blurry on the edges. Now she the knots in the wooden bench appeared to be dark colored spots and a house elf running past was a short green human shaped blurry thing. "What's going on?" she asked with a quiet sob. |
| Posted by: Missy Nov 13 2003, 02:16 AM |
| Once the students and the professor were safely in, Missy closed the door and quickly resealed it. "Can Missy do anythings else? Missy does as she is told. Missy keeps the kitchens sealed unless the password is given. Missy is a good house elf." |
| Posted by: Argus Filch Nov 13 2003, 02:21 AM |
| *Argus Filch noticed Sir. Nick and Wood walking in. Wood was carrying a girl who seemed to be bleeding. Staying where he was. Just then his great niece walked in carrying that St... Lestrange girl who seemed to be in pretty bad shape but his eyes were on his great niece. She seemed to be dizzy and she had a bump on her head. "Kyra?" He said getting up and going over to her. He wasn't big on showing emotions but his great niece was hurt and her mother would kill him. Hugging her akwardly as she started to cry Argus spoke. "The Hospital wing was burnt down." |
| Posted by: Angelique_Blanpied Nov 13 2003, 02:59 AM |
| When Angélique was done crying on Stella, she had a little bit of time to think (she did this very carefully, since it hurt). She was in a lot of pain. Every time someone came to help her, she had a dizzy spell and could no longer concentrate. Then they got sidetracked by someone else coming in. She had been here a while, and still had gone unhelped. She figured she'd hit the wall across the Great Hall. She figured nothing was broken, but the fingers on her right hand were beginning to go numb. Her right shoulder was the most painful and therefore the most likely point of impact. She'd also hit her head, hard. Finally she stood up. Excusez moi! She called out to the room in general. Eez zerre any way Ai can get some Asprin orr somesing? ((ooc: I'm going to bed. Can someone please take care of Angélique?? I'll prolly have to read through another 6 pages when I get back on.)) |
| Posted by: Madam Pomfrey Nov 13 2003, 03:05 AM |
| *Madam Pomfrey nodded to Sir Nicholas as he gave her a quick explanation of what happened. Observing Oliver and Miss Avalon bring in the two unconsicous students, she jumped forward and began examining the student Oliver placed on the table. Looking up in surprise when Oliver's head hit the table, she switchs and lookd him over quickly. Satisfied he was ony passed out for the moment, she turned her attention back to the students who were in more need of medical care. Poppy pointed her wand at Miss Lopez and quickly muttered a healing charm to begin the healing of her cuts. She then pulls out a potion. Gently, she opened Tori's mouth so she could drink the bone mending potion. Raising her eyebrow slightly, she notices that they were taking much longer to heal than normal. 'Merlin... they used a ruddy healing reducer on her...' "Okay.. she will heal.. but it will take longer than expected..." Poppy said more to herself than anyone else. It appeared her assitants were busy elsewhere. Turning her attention to Miss St. Claire, she looks over her quickly making mental notes here and there. She recognised her symptoms easily by now. She had seen one too many victims of the cruciatus to not recognise it instantly. Miss St. Claire, however, had to be one of the worse cases she had seen in long time. Not sense the Longbottoms had she seen one worse. Luckily for her though, she was not any where near that state. Pointing her wand, she put a cushioning charm on the table that both girls laid upon. The only thing to do was make her as comfortable as possible until she awoke. Pulling out another potion, she gently sits her up, and gives it to her. "There now... that should help ease the pain a bit." Sighing sadly, she adds, "There isn't much more I can do... now we wait." Returning to Oliver, she surveys his situation. His body and clothing were covered in blood, burns, and dirt. "Okay... first things first... scourgify!" She says pointing her wand at his various wounds and clothes. The wounds needed to be cleaned prior to healing that way they would not be infected. She then pointed her wand and said several healing charms for his various cuts, gashes, and burns. She then checked his vitals and was satisfied, he would be okay. He just needed to wake up on his own as well. Pointing her wand at his chair, she transfigured it into a bed, like she had done for so many students who insisted on falling asleep in the chairs next to their friends and family's beds. Turning her attention on the only remaining conscious one, she smles. "Now.. you are having trouble seeing? What happened?" Poppy listened as she found out about the Gryffindor girl being stupefied. Nodding every so often, she has an idea. Examining the students head, she finds what she suspected, a severe bump. Poiting her wand, she heals the bump, then does a seeking charm to see if there was any internal damage. Noting what the charm showed, she pulled out another potion. Giving it to the Gryffindor, she says, "This will stop any internal bleeding. Drink up." |
| Posted by: Nearly Headless Nick Nov 13 2003, 03:08 AM |
| *Nearly Headless Nick floats back and observes the scene. It amazed him everytime he was able to witness a healer. That was something he was never good at. Being a knight, he always seemed to be the one in need of healing, or the one who caused the need of healing. So, a healer was someone he respected a great deal. |

| "Matt, Leo must have stopped bleeding by now if you have done anything. Madam Pomfrey is here, give me a moment and we'll have the door open for you." "Madam Pomfrey!" Cimber rushed towards the Hospital Wing nurse. "Ma'am, Leo and Matt are outside. They need to be let in immediately! Leo is bleeding!" |
| Posted by: Madam Pomfrey Nov 13 2003, 03:25 AM |

| Alex looks up from her seat by her cousin when she heard the door to the kitchens opening. 'Oh know... more wounded... when will it be over... that's easy... when either they anihilate us... or we win. Hoping for the later...' Watching quietly, she recognises Kyra and Professor Wood enter. Neither of them looked too good. They both seemed to be swaying as they walked, from more than just them carrying people. Deciding to hold back for a bit, until it seemed a good time to step forward, Alex continued to watch from her seat on the floor. By then her cousin had fallen asleep again after Madam Pomfrey had healed her wounds. Muggle first aid could give temporary relief, but nothing was like wizard medicine Alex had completely decided. It was the way to go if available. While, watching, she saw them each place a girl on the table. When they had but down their charges, Alex gasped at the site that greeted her. Kyra was still swaying, and saying something about there being something wrong with her eyes. Professor Wood, however, even from her view point, Alex could see the many wounds that graced him. His clothes were torn. In fact, he was missing part of them, his robes. Alex had never seen any professor with out their robes. That in itself said something about the state he had to be in. Deciding to finally go over when Madam Pomfrey appeared to be done, she glances to make sure her cousin was still sleeping. Satisfied she was, she gets up and heads over to Kyra. "Hiya Ky...oh my god.... Vivi!!" Alex says suddenly as she realises just who one of the girls brought in were. "Madam Pomfrey.... she is going to be okay right?" Alex says as panic began to hit her. After just recently thinking she may lose her cousin, she didn't think she could handle losing her best friend. |
| Posted by: Rachel Ferguson Nov 13 2003, 07:27 AM |
| (ooc: yes I know you can't get in here without the pass and Rachel doesn't even know about it.....Shar Barsheba a Hufflepuff Second Year dropped me off in here about 3 pages back or so and Madam Pomfrey responded with something about our HoH telling us about a passage and that it was alright for Hufflepuff? Long story short Rachel's had both her kneecaps broken by an Imperioed Polly Huggs (topic "Hopscotch" in the North Tower) and didn't want to just sit there until a death eater got her.) Rachel washed the hustle-bustle of the surrogate Hospital wing in partial horror and partial fascination. There were so many students hurt...but the healers were doing such an amazing job. They looked so tired.... Trying not to wince, Rachel smiled at Shar's receding back and positioned herself against the wall where she had been sat down. Her knees were hugely red now.....the pain had become so great that it was starting to numb, and she stared eyes half focused into the room while the Hospital ticked on. |
| Posted by: Aurora Braelin Nov 13 2003, 07:59 AM |
| Aurora thanked Madam Pomfrey with a sad smile. The wood in her head was gone and she felt dazed. She looked at Alex who was beside her and blinked. Before she cold say anything, more people were brought in. She stood up feeling dizzy and made her way over to Vivi behind Alex who thought she was sleeping. "These attacks have gone to far..." she muttered. Feeling she was going to collapse, she limped back to the blanket she was on, feeling her face gently. She lay down upon her blanket. "Vivi will be okay," she murmured to herself, trying to reassure herself in her own way. |
| Posted by: Stella Thorpe Nov 13 2003, 11:17 AM |
| ''There now.'' Stella says, smiling reassuringly at Angelique. ''You should get some rest.'' Standing, up, she looks around the room at all the injured and shakes. They're so many... ''Excuse me Madem Pomfery, Cimber? I'll help in any way I can.'' |
| Posted by: Matt Hamblin Nov 13 2003, 12:35 PM | ||
| Matt came back to the kitchens escorting Iris Manhourne, [see the Search And Rescue, open to victims of attacks thread in the Great Hall; she was hit by a rictis sempra and a silencing spell] passing through the doors Mme. Pomfrey had opened. He kissed his cousine, Angélique. He hugged Stella & Fiona and looked in on J and Ash. Too many of his friends were hurt in this last round of attacks. A burning anger filled his young heart. Death Eaters were responsible for so much pain and disruption. Matt wrote a message for his friend Cimber:
He handed the note to a student who had said she knew where he was. Matt then went back to help in the clean up efforts. |

Erm..maybe have Pomfrey notice her vitals are like..down or something, so it shows Tori is in a coma. *wriggles* If that ever happened to someone, what happened to her, they would be dead. lol, but Im not letting Tori die! sanks for bringing her here! I wont be on till this afternoon, Im checking the school computers! Byes!) As Tori was given numerous potions to help her heal, she didnt move. She didnt make a sound, or even twitch. She lay still, as if she was dead to the world around her. |

| Chelsye walked over to Janus' bed. It had been nice to get to visit with him, though the attack had made it a much longer stay than she'd planned. She hoped her husband wasn't too worried about her as she'd had no way to get word to him that she was ok. "Janus," she said as she sat down and leaned in close, "I'm sorry I have to tell you this here and now, but I think it's best that you knew, even though it's most certainly not the way your father and I had planned on informing you. I think it's best that I just go ahead and get it out in the open." With that, she leaned even closer and whispered something to him for a while, then sat back to see if he understood. |
| Posted by: Janus Sparhawk Nov 13 2003, 01:54 PM |
| Janus' mom had just dropped a bombshell on him, and he was sitting there in shock. "But...did he..?" he said, waving at Ashley and himself. "Is he here now?" "Wow!, that's a lot to absorb, Mom. I'll need to think about this for a while. I can see why you wanted to do it in person though. Hmm.." Janus slouched back in the bed, felling much better today except for the news he'd just recieved. He thought once the attack was over, he'd be leaving, discharge or no. He'd had enough of Hospital beds for now. |
| Posted by: Chelsye Sparhawk Nov 13 2003, 01:58 PM |
| Chelsye could guess what Janus meant. "Well, there's no way to be sure of course, but he may have been involved, and yes, could still be out there as well. I'm so sorry to have kept this from you, but we felt it best. We'd have waited longer, but once we saw earlier this summer that their activities had picked up, well, after talking about it we'd decided to tell you when you came home for Christmas. But, you can see how that's turned out. We'll answer any questions you have though, just owl us or use the floo network if you want." She reached down and patted his leg. "We're all antsy to get out of here. I'm sure it will be soon." |
| Posted by: Janus Sparhawk Nov 13 2003, 02:00 PM |
| Janus smiled at his Mom's gesture. "Thanks Mom, I know you want to get going. I'm sure it will be all over soon too. If you don't mind though, I'd like some time alone to think about this." With that, he rolled over on his side, looked over at Ashley, and wondered how she'd take the news he'd just learned. |

| Angélique was more than a little upset. She hadn't ever been in so much pain in her life. She'd get some sort of pain killer for herself, if she could. But she couldn't, and anyone who could get it for her was too distracted to pay any attention to her. Fine, she decided. She'd just go sleep somewhere. Obviously it didn't matter to anyone else if she had a concussion. She'd sleep anyway, chance of coma or not. Whatever. She was fed up with the whole thing. She found an empty spot under a table at the far edge of the kitchen, curled up, and closed her eyes. |

| (ooc: erm, Janus, I've been wondering, how did your mom ever find her way past all the passwords? She doesn't know where this place is...) Cimber looked at Stella and Angelique and had to apologize. "I'm very sorry you two, so much has happened in a quick span of time and there are just so many people." He shook his head. "I'm really sorry about all this." He looked up when an owl appeared out of nowhere and landed on his shoulder. Curious of what the letter contained and how it got there, he quickly detached the letter strapped on the owl's leg and read through the letter. His face was set in a serious expression before his eyes landed on a balled up Gabrielle de Lancret. "Excuse me for a moment." Cimber said to Stella before going to Madam Pomfrey to inform her of the contents of the letter. "Madam, Gabby de Lancret's cousin is asking if she could come in here. Gabby has been resisting my efforts to heal her since she has an aversion to healers. Kaeira Estel is asking if she could come in and help her get the treatment she needs. She sent me a letter." |
