| Read Today's Daily Prophet: Knights of Walpurgis attack Hogwarts; Belleford steps down as Hogwarts closes until further notice |
| Welcome to Hogwarts Interactive Role Play, one of the net's best in Harry Potter and Hogwarts role plays. We hope you enjoy your visit. Here at Hogwarts our students are currently in their Seventh Year. Last year, the war against the Knights crescendoed into a direct attack against the school. Disappearances are still reported (or not) daily, and the Dark Lord and his Knights of Walpurgis have succeeded in spreading their message of "do as thou will" far and wide across the globe. Magical Law Enforcement, which is now the only authority in the wizarding world under Martial Law, has responded by tightening security, controlling the media, and strictly enforcing curfews and other laws. Their control is damaging to the people's freedom, and their hierarchy is a suspicious lot. It is clear that some members of the MLE like their new found power a bit too much, others see it necessary, but all are in serious danger of being consumed by it. But with the picture of just what Azariah Amaranth is after becoming ever clearer, and a third player in the form of a group called SAVIOR entering the scene, what will the MLE do next to ensure that they've got the situation under control? The Elementium, the Higher Plane that had once been hidden just beyond the veil in the Department of Mysteries, and the Deathly Hallows. The pieces of the puzzle have been identified, but what picture do they make? Today is Day 1 of Year Seven. Students have had time to recover from the Knight's attack, and are beginning to reluctantly return to the walls of Hogwarts. The safety of the school has been diminished, bringing up the question everyone must ask. Are you safe anywhere these days? It's up to each individual to decide their fate, where will you decide to go? You're currently viewing our forum as a guest.

"Natalie" Nat replied glumly to the teacher. "Its not my fault professor, the bloody broom won't get off the ground!" |

Justine moved over to Natalie's broom and said "Up". The broom moved lightly to her hand. "There now see?" Justine said to Natalie, dropping the broom, "You just have to be more confident. Come on." |

Nat groaned and reluctantly took the broom from the Professor's hand. She mounted it and looked mournfully at P. Kelly, waiting for instructions. |

"Okay, now that we've all mounted we can finally fly." Justine said to the class, "On my whistle you're going to kick off lightly with your feet, hover then tilt your broom down and land. Everyone got that? Good" Looking around she called, "Ready?". When she was certain everyone was fine she put the whistle to her lips and blew a sharp, shrill note. |

Natalie closed her eyes and pushed off from the ground. The broom rose but Nat's stomach didn't drop as she expected it would. She felt as stable as though she had never even left the ground! Maybe flying wasn't all that bad. She risked a peek and saw that she was, in fact, still on the ground. Maybe I have to push off a little harder she thought. She gave it another try and rose off the ground for real about a foot. The broom rocked wildly under her and her feet frantically waved around seeking the ground again. She rocked so hard that the broom tipped wildly and she fell off. Luckily, she managed to land in a sort of crouch so it was easy to spring back to her feet in a matter of seconds. She hoped it didn't look like a fall. |

As soon as the whistle sounded V kicked off. She felt the familiar sensation of lightness and smiled widely. She wasn't aware of anyone or anything around her. It was all she could do to stop herself flying off. |

Justine watched as the students lifted off. Her eyes darted to Natalie but a second too late. She rushed over to the girl and blew her whistle signalling everyone to come down. "Are you hurt?" She asked. |

V heard the whistle and reluctantly pointed her broom downwards. She had hoped they were going to be in the air for longer. Landing with ease, she looked around and spotted Natalie and her broom lying on the ground beside her. Walking over she asked, "Did you fall off?". |

Nat shook her head angrily at the professor. "Shhhh, keep it quiet!" she hissed. She didn't think any of her classmates had seen it, and she wanted to keep it on the down low. She re-mounted her broom and stood there composed as though she had hovered perfectly. |

"Up!" The words had barely left Liam's mouth when the broomstick leapt into his hands. He closed his fingers comfortably around the shaft and mounted it smoothly. When the professor blew her whistle, Liam kicked off gently from the ground. He rose a few feet into the air, and then tilted the shaft downward and touched down lightly onto his feet again. He was rather wishing they would be allowed to do some real flying soon, when he glanced over at Nat and caught sight of her jumping up from a sort of crouching position. Rather confused, he walked a few feet closer to her, noticing the broom lying at her feet. "You okay? Why were you on the ground?" He raised his eyebrows slightly in amusement. |

"Don't shhh me." Justine said to Natalie, " Lots of people fall off the first time". As she cast around the profesor could see that the students were returning to the ground safely. |

"You did fall off!" Said V when she heard the professor. "Oh well" She continued, "You just gotta try again". |

"I was picking flowers, why do you think?" Nat snapped at Liam. Her pride was bruised and she hated all the attention she was getting. "I guess I'm just not used to brooms of inferior quality." She said tossing her hair. |

"Yeah" Smirked V, raising her eyebrow at Liam, "It was the broom". |

Eli's golden eyes flashed in frustration. She had been trying to get her broom into her hands for several moments, but the most she had managed to do was make the broom give a feeble, half-hearted roll to the side. She had finally, after what seemed the hundredth utterance of "up" she had made in the last ten minutes, managed to make the broom rise... although it promptly smacked her in the elbow and she winced as she grabbed it quickly so that it would not fall to the ground again. "Gotcha!" She shouted in triumph. Just then however, the professor blew the whistle again, and Eli looked around angrily. "What now?" She exclaimed, furious. She noticed the professor talking to Nat but shrugged her shoulders, poking V on the shoulder. "The bloody broom hates me. I swear it's trying to murder me." She looked mournfully at the broom clutched in her hand. "How do you tame these things?" |

Nat raised her eyebrow at V and turned away. She took a few deep breaths and tried to calm the tremors in her stomach. She was beginning to shake with fear but managed to surpress it. She looked to the professor awaiting instructions trying to avoid eye contact with any of her classmates. |

V smiled at Eli and said, "At least you didn't fall off. I mean at least your broom wasn't as "inferior" as Nat's" She joked. |

Liam grinned slyly at Nat and nodded with a knowing wink at V. "Oh yes, the inferior quality must be it. That can be so frustrating." He said soothingly to Nat. "Darn brooms." He started to turn away, and then looked back over at her. "Let me know if you want me to stand under and catch you next time..." He trailed off teasingly. |
