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?

Beau's "Detention" and Dinner Swim; Day 6

Bannishtar stepped onto the grounds. It had stopped raining, and the grounds were filled with a warm scent. It was humid, but pleasantly so. Armed with his bow and arrows, and his goblin-made sword (his Grecian Centaur-made sword was all but worthless now after splitting one-to-many redcap skulls) the centaur strode--careful not to let his hooves slip on the wet, grassy hill. Being unable to use magic, Banni made sure to keep himself armed when moving outside the castle during the present conditions. Technically, he was breaking the rules by giving Beatrice a "detention" on the grounds, but her desperate need to be out in the fresh air with nature echoed his own very deeply. Besides, he needed help, and Matthew was most likely once-again...incapacitated.

Standing beside the old gamekeeper's hut (which Banni himself never used for obvious reasons) he waited for Beau.

Having not found Banni in his classroom, Beau made her way to the grounds, hoping she would find him there. The air smelled clean and slick with rain and she made sure to breathe as deeply as she could, seeing as this could be the last time she went outside for a while. She stumbled upon Banni by the caretaker's shack, Seems fitting, even if he doesn't live in it, she thought, "Interesting COMC lesson today," she commented, Maybe small talk will allow me to stay out here longer, there's no one inside I'm really missing. This was true, seeing as Lola had punched her and Arthwen hadn't been seen for days.

Ben ran across the grounds, with Lola probably not that far behind. There were puddles covering the surface of the grass, causing it to be a dangerous path to run in.

Sure enough Ben slipped and ended up landing head first in a puddle of mud, "Fiddlesticks!" Ben exclaimed. He began to sob as he did so. He needed to get to this body soon before it was too late and this was not helping, he curled up into a ball, still crying, covered in mud, he was a mess.

OOC - NOTE - This is the other side of the grounds to where Banni and Beau are, so we wouldn't be seen by them

The centaur was about to bring his fingers to his lips when he heard the voice of Beau behind him, commenting, "Interesting COMC lesson today." Banni chuckled in a way that said, "No kidding."

He turned to face his student.

"Now, Beatrice," said Banni, "I am sure you are wondering what you will be doing out here. Well..." Banni brought his fingers to his lips and whistled. Out from behind the trees came what seemed to be five horse-sized birds, only their hindquarters really WERE that of horses! The five creatures moved out into the opening tentatively, sniffing the ground and stretching out their enormous wingspan, and letting out cawing sounds. However, they all five stopped dead in their tracks at the sight of the girl. With no cause for aggression just yet, they simply stood there, staring mostly at her--though sometimes glancing at Banni, whom they recognized as the Alpha of their herd. They stood as if deer in headlights.

Lola ran into the grounds, right after Ben and ended up tripping over who-knows-what. She landed on her bottom right next to Ben. She hissed, but stopped. It didn't matter, she had to do something for Ben. She didn't know what it was, but she knew it must mean a lot.

She wiped the mud off her face and crawled over to where Ben was. Now curled up into a ball and sobbing. "Benny don't cry. Lola's here. Come on, take me to wherever you need to." she said as she stood up, not bothering to staighten out her mud-covered robes. She stretched out her hand to help him stand up incase he needed the help. Though, she felt a bit silly seeing as she was so small.

Ben gratefully took Lola's hand and got back to his feet, he wiped away his tears and nodded. Before pointing in a Northerly direction, right behind the tower he pointed towards laid the corpse of the murdered Yvette, right there, Lola would see his despicable crime.

He gulped and hoped his best friend would go first, so he gave her a small nudge in the back as a hint and for some encouragement, "Go go Dooey, please," Ben said, weary eyes complete as he was too scared to go round himself after the event with the cards earlier.

Lola almost fell over as Ben got up. She tried to get the mud out of her hair but failed. I can shower later. She was startled by him pushing her forward, but she began to walk.

She finally arrived to where he had intended. And there, on the ground, she saw it. The corpse of Yvette Hanberry. She gasped and stepped back. "Benny..." she said, as she put her mud-covered hands to her mouth.

She was speechless.

Ben froze as he saw Lola find the body, his own eyes now went from her to the corpse of his victim, Yvette Hanberry. He froze and simply nodded to himself, the card drove him here, but for what reason, and why did it need him to take Lola?

"I did this Dooey," Ben simply said, eyes suffixed upon the dead body of the one he once loved, she was dead, the old loving, jokey, funny, arrogant, loud-mouthed Hufflepuff that was once him was and is also dead now.

Lola turned to Ben and grabbed his hand with both of her smaller ones. "It's okay. It was an accident." she said, as she looked up at him then back to the body. Why did he show her this? James had already passed, and seeing another corpse wasn't the best for her.

Her knees began to buckle and she swirved, she stood up, though and held onto Ben to not fall over. This just weakened her more. She took a deep breath and was okay to stand up on her own.

"You're still my best friend." she said, as she let go of Ben's hand and turned to Yvette's body.

Ben simply stood, nothing else. Stood. Staring at the corpse of the death he had caused only a couple of days ago. He tilted his head and fell to the ground, Ben fainted.

OOC - Sorry short post but I think its effective :P

Beau gaped at the large creatures, not quite sure whether or not she was breathing. With only the slowest, slightest movement she turned her head head to Banni, "W-What are they?" And more importantly, can they hurt me? The were huge, feathered things with strong legs and razor-sharp claws, these animals could definitely cause a lot of damage.

Lola gasped as Ben fainted. She dropped to her hands and knees and went over to his body. "Benny!" she hissed, she shook him. Nothing. She bit her lip as she began to freak out. She then thought of the cloth. She grabbed his robes and pulled them off him. She took the place where the cloth had been sewn on and placed it to his forehead, praying it would work.

The creatures continued to stare. Banni heard Beau's question, and was not surprised by the fear in her voice.

"They are called Hippogriffs." Banni moved towards the closest one, a gray bodied, and white feathered beast, and patted its head, "They're truly wonderful creatures, once they get used to you. Now," he said as he lead the creature over closer to Beau. The bird-beast looked back and cawed at its fellows, as if wondering why they would not follow. "Hippogriffs are very prideful creatures and are easily insulted. You never want to cross one, as they are just as dangerous as they look. Understand?" Banni stopped, he did not dare to bring the creature any closer to the girl. The creature stared down right at her with its fearsome hazel eagle-eyes. The hippogriff shook a bit, expecting danger. "This is "Gray-talon. Now I've brought him halfway, what I want you to do is bow to him. If he bows back, you can come over and pet him. If he doesn't...well...we'll just have to deal with that then...but I think you will be fine."

Ben felt a cold and soothing touch on his forehead, he awoke slowly. His head was spinning as his eye's slowly opened, all he could see was a fuzzy vision of someone, which was Lola, hovering over him, in front of a white unfocused background to him, later confirmed to be the clouds of the sky above.

He muttered something slowly, but it was not understandable as Ben's vision began to come back to him. His fellow Hufflepuff and best friend was now becoming more recognisable, as this happened it was surprising that his own forehead was not banging with pain like usual when someone had fainted.

"Dooey, help me up please, I need to go back inside," Ben muttered almost like a whisper, it was certainly as quiet as a whisper, as his vision fully came back to him. She still had the magical and almost "love-filled" cloth atop his head, which was helping immensely.

"Please! No! Before we go, can you place these flowers atop of her? Please?" Ben begged, while pointing and trying to grip some daisies towards the side of him of where he had fallen after losing consciousness, Lola, whom was still helping alot, would need to do this for him before they left the grounds, "Don't be afraid, Dooey, she's only dead..." he sobbed slightly upon saying that sentence, however it was the most mature thing he had probably said in a long time...

Ben laid still and lifeless like the corpse itself, awaiting for Lola to complete his instructions.

Lola was glad to see that the cloth had worked. She smiled and gave Ben a hug. "Guess it's more amazing than I thought." she said, as she placed his robes on him.

Lola bit her lip at his request. She didn't want to. James just died.. She sucked it up. "Sure." she said, as she took the flowers. She walked over to Yvette's body and placed them neatly atop her body. She then turned in disgust. She wasn't good with death. She felt her stomach turn.

She ran a few steps away from herself and Ben and vomited in a nearly patch of grass. She stood up to move her hair but she heaved again, retching and felt her stomach empty. She took out a napkin fro mher robes and wiped of the remaining sick from her mouth.

She dropped to her knees and hands and heaved again, but nothing came out. She began to cough. "Make it stop!" she yelled as she tried to stop heaving.

Ben watched from his laying position as Lola retched and fell to the ground just as he did earlier, scared he stayed still, too afriad to approach her. This was his fault, he completly forgot about the death of James, he sobbed once more as he watched.

"Dooey, I'm sorry," He said, pathetically reaching out with one arm, even though it was virtually impossible to do so, he still tried. Ben was like a little kid toddler trying to reach the cookie jar to high up on the kitchen counter right now, he was even weaker, Ben was as week as a kitten.

Lola stopped heaving and sat still. She buried her face in her mud-covered hands and began to cry hysterically. This was the worst. Her stomach hurt so badly. She clutched her stomach and continued sobbing. "Not your fault..." she said, as she tried to stand up, dainty figure prevented that from happening.

She sat on the ground and looked over at Ben whom was just as much of a wreck as her. She fell on her back and began to sob. She didn't know what to do. She felt the mud go in her hair and back, but she didn't care.

She was without her brother.

The hippogriff looked straight at her with his large, intelligent eyes. Beau curtsied, dipping her head as low as she could to still maintain eye contact. "Pleased to meet you, Gray-Talon," she whispered, never having felt foolish about talking to animals. Gray-Talon moved slowly, bowing in return. Beau crept toward him, knees nearly knocking together. She reached out a shaking hand to pat his forehead gently, and to her surprise, he seemed fine with it!

"Very good, Beatrice," said Banni as he patted the head of Graytalon. "Now, over hear we have Longbeak," he said, pointing to the rather large brown-feathered and brown bodied hippogriff, "...and that one is Hawkeye,"--pointing to the white-feathered Hippogriff with the speckled body--"Rufflefeather,"--pointing to the gray bodied smallest of the group, who also stood out by his feather's having an odd bluish-gray hue, "and that one...," Banni now pointed to a beautiful-looking, all midnight-black Hippogriff, who seemed to be intentionally further from Beau and Banni than the rest of the herd, "That one's Nightwing. She's real tempermental right now...I believe she may be pregnant, in which case I advise you not to bother her..."

Banni then extracted a small bottle of purple liquid, "Now," said Banni, "Take this," and Banni handed the bottle to the girl. "These five have been suffering for months from a terrible chizpurfle infestation--nasty little things, they live underneath the feathers and fur of magical creatures, and make them miserable. All you need to do is take that bottle and run it down his head, back, and sides, it will spread on its own and kill the parasites. Do like so," and Banni ran his own bottle down the head and neck of Graytalon, squeezing out the purple liquid that was instantly absorbed into the skin and feathers.

Without hesitation or with any need to bow, Banni moved towards the other members of the herd, "When you're done," said the centaur as he moved over towards Nightwing, "Tell me so I can watch you 'introduce yourself' to another one, just in case."

Banni reached out his hand to pat the old girl, but--as he expected, she let out a screech, rearing upwards and making to slash Banni with a taloned foot. Banni quickly side-stepped, smacking the creature on its jowls. She squawked and backed away into the trees.

"Now Nightwing," said Banni sternly, "Come here." he said, standing tall, his chest out, his emerald eyes not breaking contact with her yellow ones as they glowed out from the darkness between the trees. And, still with some resignation, the beautiful black beast obeyed, allowing Banni to first pat her on the head, "That's a good girl," he cooed--something he'd certainly never done in front of a student--and then to begin administering the parasite killing potion. Aggression was the only way to gain respect from belligerent creatures...or persons. To deny this fact is to deny a very fact of life. If he had allowed Nightwing to throw her tantrum without letting her know that he disapproved, their relationship as beast and master would be forever hampered. And for her to come to think that she could answer to no one, would be a dangerous notion to others, as well as herself. Banni knows this, though those who do not understand will always react poorly to seeming mistreatment.

Jacob sat leaning against a tree watching the water move in the wind, he had been sitting in the same position most of the night. It wasn't unusual for him to be out this late, he would usually skip dinner as he knew this was the best time to sneak out will everyone rushed to get something to eat.

Today he had spent his time since lesson in his dorm trying to attempt his homework to keep all the teachers happy, but for some reason he has a sudden urge to go swimming, he tried to suppress the though and continue with his homework but it had just grown and was eating away at his knowledge until he had no clue how to complete his work so he gave up

He Swung his legs of the bed he stood up on the floor. Opening a draw next to his bed he began to rummage through it he pulled out a pair of swimming shorts and put them on lucky none else was in the room otherwise they would have seen him fall to the floor after trying to put both legs into the same hole though he managed to remain he turned to look down a pile of clothes on the floor by his bed, rummaging through it and found a t-shirt that would go with the shorts, and put it on.

Grabbing his wand and sliding his flip flops on he exited the common room trying not to make a sound he climbed the stairs to the entrance hall, it was deserted apart from a first year running into the great hall, as he passed through the entrance hall he could tell there was roast chicken for dinner as there was a strong smell coming from the great hall, as he exited the castle through the main doors, he was suddenly hit with a gush of gold air which made him wish he had put on more clothes, he couldn't remember the last time he was out in the ground, this late the sun was setting making the grounds look gloomy and uninviting, neither the less Jacob proceed wit the aid of the lights along the castle hallways which were creating a golden glow across the lawn.

It wasn't long before he arrived at the lake; it looked smaller during the night as it seemed to vanish in the darkness, pulling out his wand he waved it, causing candles to appear around the area he was stand, this cast light across the water, dropping his wand he pulled his top off and removed his flip flops, before diving into the water, it was colder then expected and made Jacob come up immediately for air, though he didn't get out the water as he knew he wouldn't get back in and there would be no point being here then.

After treading water for about 10 minuets he laid on his back floating on the top of the water watching the sky change from grey to black, he didn't know what the time was but he must have been watching the sky for over an hours as stars were beginning to come out.

He swam over to the side of the water pulling himself out while his shorts were pulled down by the water as he slid back in to the water he pulled them up and tied them even tighter, he hoped no one was around to see his exposure, he pulled himself out this time his trunks only managed to slid down a couple of centimetre, he walked over picking up his wand and t-shirt before sitting and leaning against the nearest tree, the candles were now his only form of light, as he sat there staring out into the open masses of water.

OOC: This thread is open to students, and teachers if your mean and wanna catch me you can i dont mind :)
