"Hey, thats supposed to be something you find out eventually, not something you ask upright!" i said mockingly

She laughed and looked at me,"Hey, did i or did i not tell you that some people are just born with a gift to ask or do things upright?"

"Good point, but people can learn, like so."

I kissed her right then and there, and she giggled.

"What?" i said

"Nothing, i just think its cute, thats all." and we both walked into the charms room with a big smile on both of our faces.

"Professor Flitwick?!" Alice called, "sorry I missed yesturday. Are you still avaliable today?"

No reply.

"Professor Flitwick?" Calder asked. "Are you here?"

Alice picked up his wand, "he should be. PROFESSOR FLITWICK!!!"

"Oh shut up little girl!" An angry voice said, looming out of the shadows.

**Time for some ACTION! somebody else can fill in who exactly he is.**

Jesse walked into the main hall with a grin on his face. He had just seen a poster on the bridge for an upcoming school dance. His smiled faded. He just realized he didn't have anybody to go with.
"Oh well," he said aloud. He walked into the Great Hall to find breakfast in full swing. Hands grabbing, dishes passing, and a strange smell. He sat at the Ravenclaw table and got himself a plate. An owl swooped down and dropped a letter in a pink envelope with a red rose on the front. Hayley's calling card.

Kate

I left Jesse at the entrance and headed for the Slytherin common room.Fortunately everybody seemed to have already left so I ran a brush through my hair and applied a touch of make-up to cover the bags under my eyes. That was usually the very most I wore but, after a moment's hesitation, I added a touch of lip gloss, some eye shadow and a stroke of mascara.

Pleased with the change in my appearance, I hurried down to the great hall in a brilliant mood until I saw the posters plastered across almost every wall. Some were even floating in mid air and every single one announced the coming of the school dance. Great. Well at least I knew where I would not be on that day.

***Sorry I've been gone so long, (like 9 pages worth of stuff), my internet's down because of a virus. I haevn't been on for about two weeks. Can someone fill me in on what I missed in a quick, unconfusing way? And hopefully I'll be able to et back on within the next few days to post.Thanks!!!***

Adam clutched his chest, trying to stay hidden and quiet while he caught his breath. Stealiing ingrediants was no easy task.

Lucky for him Alice and Calder had caught the teachers attention. He slid down the hall, hoping they didn't get into a lot of trouble and fingered the ingrediants in his pocket. Hopefully it would be enough.

You haven't missed too much. The main parts have been that they watched a magical meteor shower together and Kate and Jesse have learnt how to become animaguses (But the other characters don't know) and Lindsay and Alice fell out but are now friends again.

When the tall figure stepped out of the shadows Alice and Calder breathed a sigh of relief, "Professor Procom, you scared us half to death!" Alice said.

"My apologies Johnson," the professor replied, "now may I ask what you're doing here?"

Alice swallowed, "We came to see professor Flitwick, I'm having trouble with one of my charms."

"And this couldn't be worked out on your own?"

"No, I'm trying to learn how to power it down, I'm giving Mr. Filtch an awful lot to do-when I'm practicing outside even!"

"Its dangerously strong," Calder added, "nearly took my ear off the other day."

"You shouldn't be casting spells in the hall."

"Oh no, it was on the grounds."

"Nevertheless ten points from Gryffondor." Professor Thorn walked passed them and into the hall. Alice and Calder turned to watch him leave, clearly looking for something.

"Well that was odd," Alice said.

Adam slid behind a tapestry and down a hidden corridor. He found himself on the second floor.

"Time for some minor vengence. a little Befuddlement Draught should make those jerks think twice before being mean to me."

It was entoxicating. As Adam added the Scurvy-Grass he felt a sense of power. Revenge, it smelt sweet bubbling out ofthe caldron.

I went up to my room and slept and cried for the rest of the day. I woke up at around ten at night. I walked down the stairs and mostly everyone was going to bed. I walked outside and fell the cool breeze on my face. I sat down on the steps and let out a heavy sigh. I had never felt more alone. I wasn't sure if Alice was still my friend. I wasn't even going to think of Sedry. I didn't even know if me and Kate and Bella were ok anymore. I couldn't even cry anymore.

*guess who's baaaack. sry about that guys... work, drama, and CRAPLOADS of homework. But I am back with good ideas*

Sedry could only feel his head throb with confusion as the rumor whispered in his ear.

Garret and Lindsay...

the stun was like the killing curse destroying his sanity. A part of him seemed to die. He couldn't believe it, he wouldn't.

Then he saw Garret, a smug grin on his face, winking at Sedry as he settled by Lindsay much too close.

An eternal suffering took over Sedry. Was it love...? on that night in the meteors, he wished to whisper it in her ear. But now that love... as he thought. It had been betrayed.

His vision blurred. He had no control over his body as he left the building. Curses flew from his wand as he wandered into the forbidden forest. Centaurs ran, enlarged spiders scampered away.

"Reducto!"

Trees blew away as he let everything out.

"Confringo!"

boulders blew to pieces.

"Stop this!" a centaur trotted up to him, a bowline taunt. "Take your anger somewhere else!"

Sedry only glared at him, another being seeming to take control. With a slow lifting of his wand, he muttered the great terrible curse. "CRUCIO!"

The centaur screeched, piercing Sedry's ears, yet he continued it. His grip on his wand grew stronger, cutting into his hand. The exotic creature fell over, unconcious from the pain.

"Sedry, what the bloody-."

Hagrid stopped. he looked at Sedry, the shock forming beneath his beard. "Sedry, I need you to breath slow. I can see it in your eyes. you are under the imperious curse."

Sedry didn't hesitate. "Crucio!"

Awesome plot advance!

Kate

I hurried down to Hagrid's hut and knocked upon the door.

"Hagrid!" I shouted. "I need your help!" I knocked again but no answer came. Where else could he be at this time? Then I heard the screm.

"Hagrid?" I called, my voice trembling. Drawing my wand I headed into the forest and heard it again. I began to run until I saw Hagrid up ahead, writhing on the floor in pain.

"Expelliarmus!" I shouted, pointing my wand at a shadowy figure. The other wand flew towards me and I snatched it from the air. With a roar of pain and anger, the shadowy figure threw himself at me and attempted to snatch the wand back. The spell I'd readied slipped from my lips.

"Sedry?" I whispered.

"Kate," Hagrid's voice croaked. "Imperious curse. Run." The half giant was stumbling to his feet and I suddenly knew what to do. With an effort, I shoved Sedry away from me and held up my wand.

Jesse walked into the courtyard. He was going to read the letter Hayley sent him. When he sat down he looked up and saw flashes of light in the forest. He got back on his feet and ran, stuffing the letter in his robe. He got to Hagrid's hut pretty soon. He then knocked on the door. No answer. He looked around the house towards the forest. More flashes.

I had been trying to ignore whatever was happening in the forest. I figured it was some kids messing around until I heard screaming. I ran towards the trees and reached for my wand. I didn't have it.

"Dang! I must have left it." I said to myself.

"Lindsay! No!" I turned around and saw Kate, she looked really scared.

"What's going on? Sedry?" I noticed him, I almost started to cry.

"Linds! Get out of here now!" I backed up, I was confused. Jesse walked over and Kate cursed. Sedry shouted and tackled Kate when she was paying attention to us. I screamed and ran to help Kate. I shoved Sedry off but he was only after the wand. He jumped up and pointed his wand at me and Kate.

"Sedry?"

Kate

"Linds! Get out of here now!" I shouted. Then Jesse appeared and I cursed loudly. Suddenly, Sedry threw himself at me and he snatched his wand from my hand before I had a chance to react. Lindsay pushed him away and he sprang to his feet, the wand pointed at us.

"Sedry?" Lindsay whimpered.

"He's under the imperius curse," I explained. "What are you waiting for? Get your wands out or run!"

"I'm not leaving you here to face him alone," Jesse declared, taking a slim wand from his pocket.

"I... I don't have mine," Lindsay whispered.

"Then go get help! He already cast the crucio curse on Hagrid and I don't think he'll fall for expelliarmus a second time."
