| 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.

"O the big fifteen, eh?" He chuckled while twirling his wand in his hands. "I had my birthday at the end of November. When's yours?" He looked around and felt a shiver in his shoulders. Pulling his cloak tighter he watched the trees swaying in the night breeze. "What would you like for your birthday?" He asked curiously. What did girls like for their birthday? |

"Mine's the twenty first of December. Right before Christmas!" Emma rubbed her hands together, visibly excited even though she didn't know why. Perhaps because it was for that twenty four hours it was her day to shine, her father actually managed to say a few words to her. "What would you like for your birthday?" Emma smiled. "You don't have to get me anything. I'm fine with your company. Seriously!" Em chuckled softly. "I'm surprisingly low maintenance." |

Jay marvelled at Emma for a few seconds and grinned at her. "that's good, Em, because I wasn't offering." He patted her arm warmly. "I meant, what would you like from your parents?" His gaze was soft and he wasn't offended in the slightest. He was enjoying chatting with Emma. She seemed warm, gentle and smart. He hoped they'd become friends. And it seemed possible as both he and Em didn't go into the whole closeness thing. He would be happy for a friendly face in class, the common room or someone to chat to in the great hall. And with them both being beaters, they could always practice quidditch. "Forgive me for saying this," He knew he couldn't help himself. But he sensed something in Emma he felt himself. "Are your parents a little preoccupied with their own lives to notice you?" He knew the feeling o too well. His father preferred working twenty four hours a day than spend a second with Jayceon. Emma hadn't said anything but something about her gave off the same feeling he felt in his own life. |

Emma burst out laughing at Jay's quick reply. "Nice job! What if I really expected something from you?!" She giggled. "Are your parents a little preoccupied with their own lives to notice you?" "You hit the nail on the head," said Emma a little bitterly. She was in fact a very bitter person at times and she was still bitter over the fact that usually her parents seemed too...important to simply be parents for once. They weren't the mothering, or fathering types, and Emma had no idea why. If only she knew the truth. "It's been that way since I was young, so I don't really want pity or anything," said Emma quickly, her tone devoid of emotion. "You get used to it. I like having freedom, you know?" |

Jay laughed. "Well, just for that I might surprise you!" He gave her a mischievous smile and winked knowing that a prank would be all it was. "You get used to it!" She had said. "I don't want pity!" Jay shrugged. "You'll get no pity from me, Em," He said somberly. "I know the feeling way too much to have anything left to pity any one else on that score. My problem is, my mother always had time for me. Whereas dad, he loved his work far too much and my mother too. When she left, he became like, void or something. He can't stand to be reminded he has a son and a daughter he's meant to love." Jay shook his head soberly. "Why do they bother to have kids if they don't make time for them?" He was thinking out loud and he knew Emma had probably wondered the same thing over and over again. |

Emma sighed. "I don't know. I mean, it's like - In some cases, you'd be able to say, 'I know my parents care but they're just so busy!' I can't even say that. But I've become so accustomed to it, I wouldn't like my life any other way now. I don't really adjust well to change," she added as an afterthought. Which was bad, considering what she was about to find out. |

"I know what you mean," Jay lay lazily on the ground, using his hat for a pillow and staring moodily up toward the sky. "I would hate for my father to start asking me questions about my life. The only reason he took the time to move me from Kenya was because he was offered a job in the British ministry. and because he thought I was bringing shame to the family name for getting into trouble at school. I can still hear his speech during August." He sat up and adopted a stiff look and mimicked his father's thick accent. It was thicker than Jayceon's and the furrowed brow he adopted would scare his sister Bella into believing he had metamorphed into his father. Jay couldn't do that but she would believe he had with the way he was looking at the moment. "Jayceon, you are disgracing our family name. I have no idea who gave you the idea that people like the bad boy but it is not attractive for prospective employers and not for good girls either. You will end up in some major trouble so we are moving to Britain and your auntie and uncle will be keeping a watch on you while I work. Maybe Chelsea will have a good influence on you!" Jay slapped his thigh with dramatisim and laughed heartily. "Shows how much he knows his niece!" Jay had heard is father's speech time and time again in his head and yet none of it made sense to him still. "Probably the only time he spoke to me since I finished school in July and I haven't heard from him since!" He added. |

Emma sighed. "But the thing is, we don't have to be exactly like our parents. You know? Sometimes I think they just like to see what is convenient for them." Em shrugged. "I would say something optimistic like, everything happens for a reason - but last time I said it, it backfired on me." Emma smiled and chuckled under her breath, gazing over to the opposite side of the grounds. Her eyes met with a tree. A tree which, only a few moments before, she had been lying under, pretending she was dead. "Don't worry too much," shrugged Em. |

Jay pondered Emma's words for a few minutes and didn't say anything. He wondered where Summer was and the anger he had felt before had close to distinguished itself now. "You're right," he finally said and without meeting her eyes. He had to ask. "Emma, you're a girl, right?" He laughed at the stupidity of his question but plunged on. "If a girl kisses a guy and then runs away and consequently avoids him, what does it mean?" He had to ask someone and Emma was a sound girl. |

Emma giggled. "Yesss, I'm a girl. And I happen to know a lot about - well. Relationships." ...Or the lack of them. Emma smirked and cleared her throat. "I'm guessing Summer's being, well, a normal girl." Em sighed. "She's confused. She probably doesn't know what she wants - she might even be tempted by something else." With a shrug, Em continued, "I'm not going to lie or anything. Sometimes the truth hurts. But it's better than a lie, right?" ....Right? |

"Thanks, Emma," He wiped his face with his hand and looked at Emma for a second. "Thanks for your honesty. Guess, getting close really does has its major risks," He stood up and looked around the grounds. "And I'm a typical guy," He looked back at her. "The way I see it, I could go and ask her what's wrong, but my male pride is telling me to just move on. She ran away, not me!" The anger resurfaced for a second and he looked down at Emma. "You're a good mate, Em!" Glancing up at Hogwarts he straightened his cloak, put on his hat and gave Emma one last look. "I'll see you back in ravy tower later? Need to go and blast my pride into oblivion on my broom! Thanks for the chat! Any time you need the favour, just yell!" He blew her a flirtatious kiss and headed for the quidditch stadium that was sinking deep into darkness. |

Emma giggled watching Jay leave. "Bye, good luck. Oh, and if I don't see you - have a good holiday," Em sighed, content. She leaned back as Jay blew her a kiss. "Yeahhh, yeah," Emma rolled her eyes playfully and watched him leave. She sighed and lay on her back, looking up to the sky. It had been cold for a while, but now it was simply comfortable. The sounds of nature around Emma were so calming, and so perfect...she couldn't envision being anywhere else, honestly. Closing her eyes, she hummed and drifted off... |

A large grey owl fluttered down onto the girl's shoulder, pecking at her head lightly, the last remaining note attached to it's leg. Dear Miss Gray, I have something I need to discuss with you, if you could come to my office as soon as you get this message. Thank you. Bidelia Belleford, Headmistress |

Emma, shocked, read aloud, "I have something I need to discuss with you, if you could come to my office as soon as you get this message. Thank you...Bidelia Belleford?" Emma's heart skipped a little. What did I do? Oh my God she's going to expel me. Quickly rising from the ground she bit her lip and grabbed her diary, keeping it firm in hand while her palms began to sweat. She left the grounds, headed for the headmistress' office... |

Contessa, after spending many hours alone, asleep under a tree, woke up to realize that she was alone, and there was no one on the Grounds where she could see. It was dark, and she was sure everyone was inside altogether, doing something. Picking herself up off the ground, she strode her way casually into the castle. |

Tinsley burst onto the grounds. What happens to a princess when she's knocked off of her pedestal? The same thing that happens to everyone. She falls and bruises her knees, only to pick herself up from the ashes of shame to grow from them like a phoenix. Except... Tinsley was no princess. She was simply a girl who was now more confused than she ever thought she would be. She walked onto the cold grounds, looking around for some sort of sign. Some sort of way out. She shivered in the cold, visibly disappointed. She bit her lip and walked around the lake, with nothing to keep her company. The girl was sad. She hated winter, because everything - well, died. It seemed to suck up all hope and while everyone would return home for the holiday's, she would return to her grandparent's home while her brothers all cared for their expanding families and her father went on the search for a new wife. Tinsley stuck her hands in her pockets. She missed having a confidant. She couldn't trust Precious with anything much. Precious was the kind of friend which was only convenient at times. Tinsley felt guilty confiding in Constanta, who had so much going on as well...Tinsley felt selfish, almost as if her discomfort wasn't as significant. And then there was always Kayden, but Tinsley was beginning to get sick of the endless love triangles... She wanted peace, but no one offered that. Her heart gave a thump in her chest and Tinsley sighed. All she wanted was someone who would return those three little word's begging to be whispered. Jordan hadn't said them...now Tinsley was wondering if anyone ever would. Finding a tree, Tinsley sat under it and rolled over onto her back. She stared up at the sky...while she counted sheep in the cold grass all she wanted was things to just go back to normal. Edited by Tinsley Carmicheal, Dec 9 2008, 03:45:08 PM.

catalina left the castle and the grounds were dark and cold. She shivered. The hot California weather was missed by her so greatly. She hadn't settled in well here and was finding it hard to swallow that no one liked her or wanted her around. She was the muggle high school equivalent of the head cheer leader and yet here, she was the geekiest dork on the planet. Tears welled in her eyes but then she shook herself. Pull yourself together! Maybe you'll make new friends soon! At this thought she saw a girl lying on her back under a tree. The girl looked a little lonely too and so Catalina's warm and gentle nature took over and she ran over to the girl, all smiles. "Hello!" She said in her cheeriest of voices. "I'm Catalina Midstone. Are you OK? What's your name? I'm a Ravenclaw. Which house do you belong too?" She couldn't help the pelting of the other girl with her questions. It was how Catalina reacted to new people. |

Tinsley heard a sharp voice send questions at her. However they hardly seemed like questions - more like daggers. Tinsley sighed and propped her arms behind her head, fully aware her outfit was far too revealing and the cold was chilling her to the bone. She didn't care much, though. "I'm fine. I'm Tinsley, a Slytherin, and your worst nightmare. Any more questions?" said Tinsley in a drained voice. She frowned, hoping this incessant little disturbance would disappear. Or someone would drive her away... |

Catalina smiled at the girl and took a seat beside her. "I like your outfit," She said gleefully. "So why do you think you're my worst nightmare? My worst nightmare is this really awful one that I have at least once a month. I'm in this long corridor with statues everywhere and there's a monster coming after me. I keep running, and running, and running and screaming but the statues keep jumping out on me and blocking my way. I hear it coming closer and you look like none of those statues or the monster. Not that I 've ever seen the monster, just felt him!" She shivered at the thought of her worst nightmare. cat had no idea where it stemmed from but she had had it for as long as she could remember. |

"You want to know MY worst nightmare?" said Tinsley with a fake smile. She sat up and leaned in towards Cat. "The second you decided to start a conversation with me. WHAT MAKES YOU THINK I WOULD EVER GIVE A DAMN ABOUT YOU?!" Tinsley couldn't even figure out what to do with herself. She wanted to cry, she wanted to punch Cat in her face and she - Tinsley let out an aggravated yell and pulled at her own hair. "Leave me ALONE!" |
