crystalpoppin 5 Posted August 3, 2012 Alexis took her pony tail out and started brushing out her hair. Her mind was set for the duel tomorrow. She set her hairbrush down and fed her Jacob. She took it out of the cage and let it run around. She began to let her mind wander. She thought about her classes, the duel, but mainly Henry. She shook her head at the thought. 'No, that won't... No.' She sighed and picked Jacob up and put him back in the cage. "Night boy." she said as she climbed into bed. Shortly after, she was asleep. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Keyblade_warrior895 51 Posted August 3, 2012 Henry got back to the Gryffindor common room and went to his dorm. He then layed down and was soon fell asleep. The next morning, Henry woke up with his owl staring him right in the eyes. "WHOA!" exclaimed Henry as he fell off his bed. "Owl's, why do they always do that to me?" Henry asked himself as he got up. Henry then put on his robes and headed down to the great hall. When Henry got there, he sat at the Gryffindor table and started talking with some of the others. 'I'm just glad it's a saturday.' thought Henry. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JailXun 27 Posted August 3, 2012 The library was dark, except a blue glow coming from the spell section. "This one should be easy to learn...." Julius sat on the ground reading a book about combat spells. The young wizard shook his head. "Such a shame that I had to injure myself on purpose to have an alibi... better not tell uncle about this, he could get angry that I haven't killed my opponent..."

crystalpoppin 5 Posted August 4, 2012 Alexis woke up with the sun streaming in through the window right on her face. She groaned and covered her face with a pillow. 'Its only Saturday. SATURDAY!' she sat up quickly and remembered the duel. She looked at the clock and saw that she had to be at the Quiditich Pitch gates in 5 minuets. She hopped out of bed and grabbed her robes, putting them on while running down the stairs. 'Okay, time to thrash this Slytherin.' she thought smiling. She got to the Quiditich Pitch with a minuet to spare. She began looking for Henry to see if the plan was still on. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Keyblade_warrior895 51 Posted August 4, 2012 Henry was laughing along with a few other Gryffindor's when he noticed the time. "Uh oh, sorry guy's, i gotta go." said Henry as he ran as fast as he could to get to the Quidditch Pitch. When he got there, he saw Alexis was already there. "Sorry, i was....in the great hall....talking to some friends....glad...i made it." said Henry in between breaths as he had run the whole way. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
crystalpoppin 5 Posted August 4, 2012 Alexis smiled at Henry. "Me too. Now, calm yourself. I need to have breath if I need you." She looked over and saw the Slytherin staring her down. She glared at him and turned back to Henry. "Well, ready to kick some ass?" she asked smiling again. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Keyblade_warrior895 51 Posted August 4, 2012 "You don't have to ask me that when it comes to a Slytherin." said Henry. Henry then took a quick look around the field. "I'll keep an eye out, just in case he's got a lackey hidden somewhere." said Henry. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
crystalpoppin 5 Posted August 4, 2012 Alexis laughed. "Thanks Henry." she turned away and walked to the middle of the field. She faced the Slytherin, glaring at him. He smirked and bowed slightly. Alexis returned the bow and walked to her end of the field. She drew her wand and waited for him to turn. He spun around, shouting "Confringo!" She barley dodged it and it exploded the wall behind her. She growled. 'That could have killed me.' she thought. "Levicorpus!" she shouted, causing him to be lifted up by his ankle. She smiled. "Expelliarmus." His wand flew out of his hand and into Alexis's. She flipped it in the air and leaned down to the Slytherin. "Learn to fight without help." She smiled and turned away, throwing his wand away. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Keyblade_warrior895 51 Posted August 4, 2012 Henry was laughing at the fact that the Slytherin lost so easily. Suddenly, Henry stopped laughing. "Wait, that was a little to easy." said Henry as he started looking around. Henry then saw a spell heading for Alexis, but he couldn't tell which one it was, though he knew it wasn't good. "Alexis, get down!" called Henry. Henry then ran out to the field, grabbed Alexis' hand and pulled her behind cover. "You'd better wait here.....i'm going in." said Henry as he ran out from cover. Henry saw another spell heading for him, but this time, he studied it's angle of motion and found out where the other guy was hiding. "Protego." said Henry, blocking the spell. "Patrificus Totalus!" shouted Henry. The Slytherin that was hiding then fell off one of the walls and landed on the ground. "That's gonna hurt in the morning....you can come out now Alexis." said Henry. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
crystalpoppin 5 Posted August 4, 2012 Alexis came out and looked at the Slytherin laying motionless on the ground. "Um, thanks Henry." She said looking back at Henry. "Shouldn't have got so cocky." She said glancing at the Slytherin still dangling by his ankle. He was smirking at Alexis. She became furious at him. Thinking of a spell quickly, "Furnuculus!" she shout at him. Boils started sprouting in his face. She turned back to Henry. "I should probably go." Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Keyblade_warrior895 51 Posted August 4, 2012 "Hey, if ya want, you can come with me to the owlery, i've gotta send a note to my parents anyway, wanna tag along?" asked Henry.

Keyblade_warrior895 51 Posted August 4, 2012 "C'mon then, so, this may be a random question but, how did your parents react when you first got your letter from Hogwarts?" asked Henry. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
crystalpoppin 5 Posted August 4, 2012 Alexis smiled. "When Professor McGonagall showed up, my parents thought she was a phyco on the run." she laughed. "After they learned I was a witch, they were thrilled. They support me and I'm happy." Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Keyblade_warrior895 51 Posted August 5, 2012 "Well, at least you had two parents supporting you, my dad freaked when he figured out i was a wizard, my mom managed to calm him down, though, he spent the next few months before i left teaching me muggle stuff." said Henry. Henry laughed a little at the memory. Soon, they arrived at the owlery. "Hey, watch this......REG, here buddy!" called Henry. Henry's owl then flew out a window, but when it was about 10 feet of the ground, it crashed to the floor. "Still gotta work on your landings." laughed Henry. "Ok, get this to my parents, got that?" asked Henry. Henry's owl Reg blinked in response and Henry gave him the letter, with Reg flying off soon after. "Hey, if memory serves, we've also got a Hogsmeade visit later today, if you're able to, would you go to?" asked Henry. Henry then felt something, or someone, lightly elbowing him. Henry turned and saw Peeves winking at him. "I'll give you five seconds to run before i hex ya, or i get professor Binns to give you a lecture of the origins of poltergeists." said Henry. By then, Peeves took off. "Should've threatened him with that one years ago....anyway, would you go to Hogsmeade as well, kinda like a...." Henry paused. 'Man, dad said this was hard, i never actually believed him.' thought Henry. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

She was super excited about their date. 'I have to go to my dorm and look absolutly perfect.' she thought. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Keyblade_warrior895 51 Posted August 5, 2012 Ryan walked back to his dorm to get ready. 'Ok, now, what am i gonna wear?' thought Henry. Henry searched through his trunk until he found something his dad gave him on his 6th year. "Man, i hope he's right." Henry said to himself. As soon as Henry got changed, he was wearing black jeans, a red jacket and a orange T-shirt. "Man, i hope i look alright." said Henry as he headed to the clock tower courtyard.

crystalpoppin 5 Posted August 5, 2012 Once Alexis made It to her dorm, she ran to her trunk. "Okay, I don't want to look over dressed, but I don't want to look underdressed. What to wear, what to wear." she said to herself. After a couple of minuets of searching, she debated between a pair of light blue denim shorts with a blue v-neck t-shirt or a dark blue pair of denim shorts with a grey t-shirt. She laid both outfits kn her bed and stood back to admire them. She put her hands on her hips. She smiled and changed into dark denim shorts with the blue t-shirt. She decided to let her hair stay down and admired herself in a mirror. She smiled and nodded. "This'll work." she said smiling. She then made her way to the clock tower.

Keyblade_warrior895 51 Posted August 5, 2012 (Italics are used for nearly headless Nick) Henry was speaking with nearly headless Nick by the clock tower while he was waiting. Nervous?. "What, you can tell?" asked Henry. Come on, i'm the Gryffindor house ghost, it's my job to notice if a Gryffindor is nervous. "Alright, ya caught me, i'm nervous, who wouldn't be?" asked Henry. Well, you have about 20 seconds to get over your nerves, she's right over there. Nick pointed towards where he saw Alexis. Henry looked in the direction Nick was point. "She's here." said Henry. Henry then looked back towards Nick. "Nick, ya gotta help me get rid of these..." said Henry before Nick whacked him across the head. "Thanks, i needed that." said Henry. Good luck. Nick then flew off. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
crystalpoppin 5 Posted August 5, 2012 Alexis looked around the courtyard for Henry. She saw him talking to Nearly Headless Nick and started walking over. She made it over there just after Nick flew off. She took a deep breath and smiled at Henry. "Hey." she said. 'Its just a date. No need to be nervous.' she thought to herself.

JailXun 27 Posted August 5, 2012 Julius was still in the library. Now he nearly red every book about combat spells, but yet wasn't satisfied. Dustrain didn't learn spells the traditional way through practicing, his uncle taught him an old long forgotten technique, Julius wasn't sure if it was forbidden. He merely whispered the spiel to his wand after that the runes started to glow blue, then the light faded again. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
