| 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.

Violetta sat against a tree with her back pressed up against the wood. Her hands kept firm hold of a flower. She grasped it, stroking each petal and then roughly ripped it from the ground, giggling at the roots which hung limply in her pale white hands. She threw it behind her and ran her fingers through the grass around her, ripping small clumps of the green with every passing moment. "Your hands are weapons that can be used for good... or for evil...Your hands are weapons that can be used for good... or for evil...You will never forget." Ahh, Hellius Surla. He had a point. Bitterly Violet licked her lips. Sadly his point was lost of the girl. She couldn't care less what became of him, but she cared even less what became of her. Sounds from the Quidditch game were heard over the soft silence that hung over the grounds. It was an eerie silence in which Violet broke with her quiet words. "I'll never forget - damn him. What does he know about me? Nothing. Nothing." She took a great, deep breath and threw herself on her back. She watched the clouds overhead drift off. She sighed, a heavy gust of wind blowing leaves around her body. It was old outside, yet Violet felt nothing. After an hour of being cold, she was just numb now. Numb. Her skin was ghastly white, and her chocolate brown eyes had an eerie gleam. Everything about her suggested she was someone not to be crossed. Her lips curved up into a devious smile and her tone was sharp and furious - everything about her seemed very different from the sweet girl which had walked through the doors of Hogwarts a few short months ago. She would return home for Christmas break a drastically different person. People would ask why. What had become of dear little Violetta Sparks? Life happened. |

Kayden walked along the Grounds not wanting at all to go to Quidditch. She felt abnormally different, like something was lifted off her chest within the last few minutes. Wanting to sit or just continue walking by herself, Kayden found a tree, not knowing that someone was sitting underneath it by herself as well. As her footsteps approached, the girl looked up and Kayden said, "Holy shit! You're blonde?!" Kayden immediately sat down indian-style sitting across from what used to be her brunette and sweet sister. |

Hearing a familiar voice, Violet allowed her gleaming eyes to flutter towards the face of her sister. She smiled, and yet it didn't seem like the same smile. Kayden was very...behind the times. In truth she hardly knew anything about her sister, anymore, and Violet wasn't about to divulge anything else. "I woke up and -" ..it was different. Well, yes, that had been the truth. Once again, Violet's curse (or gift) had decided to change things a bit during the night. Madam Depaul was at a loss for words - perhaps it was an additional curse that the Surla boy had cast upon Violet? But Violet knew the truth. She always knew the truth. "I wanted a bit of change. Can you blame me?" she smirked and shrugged, glancing at a blond curl in her pale hand. She blinked several times and sighed. "...I haven't spoken to you in a while. There's a lot I need to catch you up on...like, a lot." Violet licked her lips. |

Kayden took a piece of Violet's hair and held it in her own hand. With an impressed face, she dropped it and said, "Not gonna lie, but I really love it." She also noticed how pale Violet was becoming as well. "You really haven't been outside much, you're just as pale as I am now," she giggled. Not that she was unusually pale, but Violet had always seemed a shade or two darker or at least with more color. Clearing her throat, she spoke, "Well go ahead, fill me in. Then I can fill you in." A smile crept across her face as she spoke those words. OOC| Does Violet know about the dark magic and stuff? Like i'm not sure what she does and doesn't know. |

ooc | I don't think so, no. Violet inhaled deeply and spoke with a smile on her face. The smile wasn't appropriate for her tone - dark, and thoughtful. Everything about Violet looked odd...as though she had cracked in some way. "Well my hands were shattered last night, by our own resident bastard, Hellius Surla." Her eyes gleamed. "And, of course, I took myself to the Hospital Wing. It seems that everyone around here hates me." Violet blinked a few times and then shrugged. "Whatever. It won't be long until we're all dead, anyway. But in the mean time..." She sighed. "Xander and I are over. I can't keep my mind off of someone else - although I don't even know why. He makes me this bubbly person when I'm around him. It's not something I should be proud of." But with Cameron, Violet felt like the teenage girl she was. Not some painted up doll. "Cameron Marques. He's a Hufflepuff." Vi awkwardly cleared her throat. "And that's, well...it." "...I'm excited to meet our dad," she said quietly, unsure if she should ask Kayden to spend the Christmas holidays with them. |

Kayden rolled her eyes and said, "Come on Vi, stay the fuck away from him, he hurt Tinsley as well. We're gonna get him back though, don't worry about that," she play punched her arm and spoke, "Are you okay now though?" A look of worry appeared on her face and then she shook her head and said, "Of course you're fine, you're related to me." With a quick chuckle, she thought about Xander and the other boy she was talking about. "What's he like?" she asked Violet. "Oh and don't think I'm going to bash on you, because well.., I'm sort of dating a Ravenclaw." She covered her face with her hands and shrugged, wanting Violetta to explain. |

Violet sighed. "Hellius, see, is the kind of person who won't stop until I do what he wants me to do. He wants me to write good things - not gossip." Vi sourly licked her lips again and rolled her eyes. "...Whatever. I don't have anything to worry about. Not with you protecting me." "I can just call Kaleb," said Violet with a sly smile, wondering why she hadn't thought of it before. She sighed. "So...a Ravenclaw, hmm? Who is he?" |

"He'll get what he deserves though Vi, don't worry." She smirked, wanting to change the subject now. "Ahh Grant. Well I just met him, he's sort of knew, but I can't even describe it," she laid back and tucked her arms behind her head, looking up at the sky, lying in the grass. "He's a real person Violet, and you don't find too many of them anymore," she thought of Grant, and how much her true side has come out from him, even when she doesn't want it to show. |

"That's true. You rarely find good people around here anymore. Everyone's either fake or chasing a dream or ..." It took Violet a moment to realize she was just talking about herself. "I wonder if I should tell Charlie Johnson I quit. I don't know for how much longer I can do this." "...Being a girl who is so totally hated is hard," she murmured. "I don't even know if it's worth it anymore. The ends don't justify the means any longer." |

Kayden sat up now and glared at her. She was admiring her, because she saw the truth and the whole truth of everything and everyone. "Violet.. quit." Kayden wanted Violetta to quit, only because more opportunities come to those who are truthful. Gossiping isn't a way to gain trust or friendship in anyone. "Although I don't hate you, it's just, you don't deserve to be treated by others the way that you are, only because you're writing a column. Seriously, you're not a bad person, so find something that'll prove to everyone that you aren't," she smiled at her and patted her hand lightly. She still had much to tell Violet, hoping that it all wouldn't come out the wrong way. |

Violet inhaled, and exhaled. She had worked so hard for everything...but maybe a hiatus wouldn't be so bad. She'd try and quit for a little while and then see how it felt. Maybe gossiping was just a part of Vi's soul. Maybe she couldn't even stop it anymore. Perhaps it was just like a disease with no cure. "I guess I'll try," she mumbled, blinking up at the sky thoughtfully. Her eyes were sparkling and the colors sparkling in them didn't resemble the same chocolate brown eyes. "...Thanks, I guess." Vi inhaled and exhaled deeply. "What else is up with you?" Vi asked suddenly. "I'm done thinking about me." |

Kayden laughed quietly and said, "Good." New with me.. she thought to herself. "Well let me ask you one thing, what was the last thing you remember me telling you about? Because then, I can just work off of that, seeing as my life is becoming suddenly like a movie." |

"I don't know," said Violet uneasily. "I don't remember much. We haven't really talked a lot recently...why?" She brushed a strand of blond hair away from her face and blinked at her sister inquisitively. |

Kayden flipped a piece of hair from blowing out of her face and gave Violet one of her usual looks. "Oh, well there's just been so much," she began to laugh and said, "I just don't even know where to start. From James to Grant, or being attacked, or being friends with Ravenclaws or working on my diet or.." OOC| I was hoping that Violet could've like interrupted her and said, BEING ATTACKED?! |

ooc | Ohwow. lol "Diet?...Being attacked?" shrieked Violet. "What the fu -?!" Violet's eyes narrowed. Her gaze was furious and cold. "I swear, we're like magnets for danger. How the hell did you get attacked?!" |

Kayden's lip trembled, but then she shook it off, it was pointless. Because so far, she wasn't being effected at all. "Oh, don't worry," she said snorting after it, "It was just some dark witch. But Professor Tortal has been helping me and such, I was just in a lot of pain and I still have a nasty-looking scar." Kayden had a fake smile on, and rubbed the portion of her skin where the brand on the dark witch left her mark. |

"Are you kidding me right now?!" spat Violet, suddenly angry for a reason she couldn't quite place. "Just some dark witch?! Kayden, you could have been killed. I could have been killed. God - I just...I just want to leave this place!" shrieked Violet. She wanted her old life back. When she thought she was a Muggle and she could go to the mall unaffected by things...when she was no one. "Be realistic here," said Vi suddenly. "She must have had motivations. And I'll bet you will see effects. Things don't happen without consequences! They just don't! Look at me!" |

Kayden looked down at the grass and said, "I know, I know, but things are going to be okay. Apparently, Tortal said she wasn't here for me though. It's like he knew her or something," Kayden now was looking up at the sky, it was quite dull to her. Giving Violet a glance now, she said, "I'm not sure why it happened or anything, but I wrote to my dad, and think he's in the process of taking care of it or something, I can't be sure though." She shrugged and plucked a piece of grass, tying it into a knot. |

Violet bit her lip. "Ahh, I guess...I don't know. It just seems very...unexpected. And how would your father take care of things?" Skeptical of the situation she cleared her throat. "Our father, I mean. Gee, I don't know. I wish I'd run into Cameron or something." |

"Why do you wanna see Cameron so bad? What's so great about him?" Kayden was curious. I mean, if it was her sister's boyfriend, she was all game for the guy. Guys were so blunt lately. Kayden hadn't even ran into James or had any time with him, and it felt weird. Changing the subject, Kayden began a new one."So, are you excited to meet the infamous Dragomir Slayer?" she said with an arched eyebrow at Violetta. It seemed strange that she called her, her sister and she hadn't even met the man that brought them together. |
