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?

Seventh Year & Gryffindor Chaser. I love Dave. I AM THE SWAN QUEEEEEEEEN!

((OOC: I apologize in advance if this post is bad, laden with grammatical errors, didn't make sense, or is just plain crazy-sounding. I'm practically high off a mix of cough syrup, motrin, and advil, I'm dizzy with sickness, and I just finished a pass-out-worthy workout. But enough excuses; back on topic!))

"I-I'm sorry about how Nicole acted... She didn't mean that, I'm sure. She was just carried away, because she's my best friend and she doesn't like me feeling bad... And Ginny, if you think I'm mad at you about the Jack thing, I really am not... I'm just... Well, I'm just a little envious of your confidence... I felt intimidated when I found out that he was taking you... But it was nothing really personal, I swear. I reacted that way because I felt that you were a threat, and I felt so insecure about you... I-I'm sorry..."

Ginny watched with interest as Trina hung her head. She had a feeling it was something like that--jealousy. She was just glad she had a friend who was willing to defend her, although she did feel rather bad about it.

"I didn't really care much about Ginny and Jack, until she comes and waves that corsage right in front of my face. Do you know how that felt? It felt like being slapped!"

She thought that maybe Trina was lying a little bit about how much she cared, but all the same, Ginny was quite impressed. As much as it killed her, she could have never come out and apologized like that. She was much too prideful. However, having pride didn't stop her from feeling guilty.

"It's fine, Trina. Maybe you don't believe me, but I understand. And..." Ginny took a deep breath. Something was telling her that she would regret what she was about to say, but she ignored it. "I'm sorry, too. I really wasn't trying to hurt you at first, I just genuinely forgot to take the thing off. I was opening presents, and I put it on so that it would be safe. Then I saw the way you reacted to me, and I just got... mad. About everything. I was mad that you expected me to know how you felt, and I guess I was kind of mad that you were jealous, though I'm not sure why. I just figured that if you were going to be angry with me anyways, I might as well taunt you. And that was rude, and I apologize."

Ginny felt like throwing up. She hated anything like this: apologizing, making up, gushy scenes that require a big spill of emotions. But, in a way, she was glad to get it all off her chest.

She then noticed a little scuffle behind the trees in the forest. She stood on her tiptoes to try and see what was going on.

Suddenly Nicole and her sister, Alyssa, showed themselves. Nicole came over to apologize, practically being dragged by Alyssa, but all the same, it was a good gesture. Besides, Ginny knew that Nicole, like herself, might be sorry, but was too self-righteous to ever dream of voicing it.

"I get it, Nicole, you were just defending your friend. I'd do that any day." She squeezed Criselda's hand for emphasis and to thank her friend for backing her up. "Yeah, I guess I'm sorry, too. I didn't mean to yell at you or anything..." Ginny cleared her throat. She was beyond ready for all this emotional stuff to end.

Apparently Dave was thinking along the same lines.

"Is that seriously what this is all about? "Come on, if this is all about something like that... well... I don't really know what to say."

Ginny completely agreed. She took a relieved breath. Thank God this was finally over!

"Thanks Ginny, I knew you'd understand. she said and smiled. Nicole then turned to her sister, Alyssa. "Would you please let go of me now?" she asked, laughing to herself. She waited for a second for Alyssa to release her. "Thank you! Now, how 'bout we all go back to the Great Hall, seeing as we seem to be done here?" she said, looking around at her friends. She turned and started walking back to the Great Hall.

"Good. We're all happy now. Just the way it should be, especially on Christmas! she exclaimed. she turned to see Nicole heading for the Great Hall. "Nah. I'm not hungry, Nicole. I'll probably just wander until I find something to do. Thanks anyway!" she shouted to her sister. Alyssa turned once more to face her friends. "I'll see you guys later then. Have fun!" she said happily, waving to them, before turning towards the Entrance Hall.

"I don't like it, I love it." said Precious, running her hand over it. She felt like a goddess and Oscar was attempting to worship her. She sighed, letting her eyes run all over the figure. Placing her hand on chest, she realized she had forgetten about Dave's locket for a moment. Her eyes flickered back to Oscar when he spoke up, and Precious' porcelain cheeks flushed a faint pink. That pink turned to red when he ran traced his finger over her cheek.

"Oh Oscar." she sighed again. She then threw her arms over his neck. Even though there was a little awkward presence between them (from the kiss) this gift made up for all of it.

Oscar couldn't stop smiling as Precious continued to examine the sculpture, clearly awed by it. He'd had to study her face for several hours before he felt confident enough to carve it, although looking at Precious was hardly a task. As he traced the outline of her cheek with his finger, she blushed to a deep red, causing Oscars breathing to quicken slightly and his heart to skip a beat. Precious threw her arms around his neck, and Oscar returned the embrace, holding her close against him until their clothes were the only barriers between their bodies.

"I know you won't be able to carry it around with you like that locket, but since it'll never melt there's a good chance that it'll be here for ever. and future generations will wonder who was so beautiful that their likeness was captured in ice itself."

Oscar made no attempt to hide the fact that he had found Precious attractive, because even if he did, she would see right through the act.

Trina stepped forward to accept Dave's gift, feeling slightly embarrassed by their little drama. He is a guy, and things like these would be hilariously irritating. She reached out her hands and looked at him and smiled before opening them. If she knew she was meeting him this early, she would've taken his gift with her. She gasped as she opened the broom servicing kit and the corsage and smiled widely, running to hug him tightly. She didn't mind if she was still holding the gifts in both of her hands; she just threw her arms around him. "Thank you, thank you, Dave! I'll give you your gift later. I didn't bring it with me, because I didn't expect this, uh, early meet..." Trina shrugged and smiled sheepishly. She put her gifts in one hand and squeezed Dave's hand.

Trina turned her head to face Ginny, who was obviously feeling uncomfortable with their dialogue. One thing good about her that she was so transparent; there's no pretense in her features. People regard this negatively, but for Trina it was something to be thankful for. "It's okay, Ginny. And I also apologize for not understanding you... And for the waterworks." Trina blushed slightly and shrugged. She was glad it was over; she was happy with how things are going. She was happy with her date, and even happy that Jack was taking Ginny.

She turned her head again to smile at Nicole, the best friend who never failed to defend her, even if it costs her too much. She blew her a kiss with her free hand, her other still latched to Dave's, not wanting to let go. What was funny was that in the five years they have become friends, she unconsciously developed feelings for him and was only confirmed last night when they were together. But he would never know... Trina thought to herself, not wanting to think about what would happen after the Ball.

Not wanting to betray these thoughts to Dave, she turned her body to face him, still holding his hand. "Uhm, I think we should go up now, so we could both prepare." Trina smiled and continued. "Would you mind walking to the castle with me?"

Rebecca watched the students that had gathered outside with curiousity and shook her head slightly as she looked back over at Lithia, returning to the present. "Well I don't have anyone to go with either. But I'm sure it will still be fun," Becca responded cheerfully offering Lithia a huge smile. She rubbed her hands together to regain some warmth and then tucked them into her cloak. "What does your dress look like?" She glanced back over at the other students wondering what it was they were talking about.

Ginny sighed as the conversation drifted elsewhere. "Getting bored yet?" she asked Criselda quietly. "I think I might head over to the pitch and fly a bit, since I didn't get to fly that much last night, and I still want to. But I have to curl my hair later, so I'll see you in the dorm before the ball, right?"

Then she turned to Trina and Dave, who were the only ones left besides Criselda and Ginny. "I'll see you guys at the ball tonight. Bye!" She smiled an waved cheerfully, happy to be over this little glitch in her friendship with Trina and Nicole. Then she turned away and walked over to the Quidditch Pitch.

Criselda waved at Ginny and turned to Trina and Dave. "I... I guess I'll be going, too." Criselda smiled sheepishly, still a little awkward about what had happened. She waved at both of them, and strode towards the castle, where she would be going to the Gryffindor Tower to rest and prepare for the Ball.

"I'm sure every female that walks by this will be insanely jealous," said Precious, taking a step to fully admire the sculpture. Putting a finger on her lips, she looked it over once more before turning to Oscar. "I would love to stay and admire it more, but I have to go. Gotta get my hair ready-it takes a while." she said. "Save me a dance, yeah?" Precious asked. And with that, she kissed him on the cheek and left.

"Sure thing, I'll see you there."

Oscar stood in the glade for a while, thinking about the events that had just transpired, and what they could lead to. He gently traced the area of his face where Precious had kissed him, before shrugging and going back inside the castle.

She looked up at Becca then shrugged slightly, "The top part looks like a corset, it's black with crimson lace on the ends. It also laces up in the back, the ribbon is also crimson. The skirt is just black, and I have some nice high heels that are black as well." She said softly then looked around the lake noticing a bunch of other students. "So, what about yours?" She asked curiously.

Seventh Year. Lori rocks! But srsly, Morgan is the best! I love Malynne! But not as much as I LOVE ANNA AND LORI. BUT MORGAN STILL PWNS THEM ALL, THE END. I love Meg she is so awesome and epic. Did I mention how silly Jess is?

Dave smiled when Trina threw her arms around him, slightly shocked by her reaction, which was a little more than he expected from Trina, who was normally pretty calm. Her reaction to his gift felt good, but a tinge of guilt shot through his body when he remembered that he had just come from giving Precious his gift to her. Pushing it out of his mind, Dave wrapped his arms around Trina's waist and held her in the embrace.

"I'd love to," Dave responded when Trina released him and requested him to escort her to the castle. "I've got to make a quick stop at the great hall to grab a bite to eat, and I still have some gifts to give out," Dave declared, tapping his sweater's front pocket, which still had a few small boxes inside. "I guess we'll catch you guys later at the ball, then?" Dave asked the girls, his hand still enclosed in Trina's.

Trina nodded at Dave, a smile plastered on it. "I don't really feel hungry, so I'll be going back to the common room." Trina answered as she and Dave started to walk slowly.

As they walked hand in hand, Trina couldn't hide the smile from her face. She didn't dare look at Dave, so she kept her head tilted the other way, feeling stupidly happy. She was happy at this very moment, that her day was just about to begin, and that kept a smile etched on her face as they walked towards the castle.

OOC: I'll be godmoding Dave in the main floor. They'd part ways there. :)

Paulette Mercier
Beauxbatons Student

Paulette after exiting the carriage headed for the grounds. She wasn't sure what she was aiming to accomplish, but just decided that a nice walk before the big event would do her mind good. A refreshing breeze swept through the grounds and twirled the few, curled strands from her messy bun. She closed her eyes, trying to engulf her whole soul in the moment. The Beauxbatons girl observed a few scattered couples also roaming the near-empty area as well. She let a sigh escape her carefully colored lips.

The crunch of a few leaves brought her back to reality. She spun around, and after recognizing the silouhette, smiled. The golden sprays of color, mixed with the rosy pinks and light blues made quite a romantic scene.

"Bon jour." she simply said, waiting for the figure to approach her.

Sixth Year.

Joel went out of the castle, and to the grounds. His brown, wet hair was dropping some water on his suit, but he didn't mind, he'd fix it later. The boy shook his head, making his hair appear messy. A few people looked at him, but what was the problem? Messy hair looks nice, or at least mine does.... He walked slowly through the Hogwarts' grounds, admiring the view. He didn't really like nature and such things, but there was something that made it seem good.

As Joel continued wondering, he noticed a girl on a white dress in the middle of nowhere. But it wasn't any girl, it was Paulette, the Beauxbatons girl that was as pretty as Mariane. He smiled as he walked slowly towards the girl. As he was a few metres away from here, Joel stopped and fixed his clothes, before continueing. As he got closer and closer, he said "Bonjour Mademoiselle, vous êtes très belle with that dress". He smiled and examined the girl as he waited for a response.

Paulette Mercier

Paulette also started slowly walking towards him until they finally met in the middle. Giggling at his greeting, she began to play with his wet hair. She loved it when Joel tried to impress her. Mostly for the fact that he was trying to make an effort and that she began to feel important to him.

"Pourquoi, Monsieur le ministre, Merci beaucoup. You also look quite handsome, Joel." she responded.

Paulette smiled warmly at the gentlemen. Her heart thumped against her chest. Why was she feeling so nervous now? In normal circumstances she never would have felt any sort of nervousness around boys, it was usually the other way around. She dissmissed the thought while her heart kept beating ever so faster. The girl batted her eyes from instinct, hoping hints of her foolish feelings weren't flashing among her face by now.

Joel smiled as Paulette played with his hair. He just loved the feeling of a girl like her treating him like that. It happened often, but this time it was different. Something of Paulette made Joel feel a real gentleman, she made him feel special.

"You also look quite handsome, Joel." the girl told him after thanking him for what he had said.

"Merci to you too, Paulette," he replied. He did feel really handsome, and Paulette telling him that make him feel even more special. He looked at the girl as she batted her eyelashes... A bit too much. But who cared? Of course, Joel didn't.

The boy stood still for a moment. He wasn't sure what do to next. He normally did the first thing that came to his mind, but this time, his mind was blank. This is unusual... he thought to himself as he took Paulette's hand carefully. Now what? he felt a bit nervous on the inside, but he wouldn't let Paulette know that. He wouldn't let anyone know that, because he was not like that.

"Shall we walk around and admire the beautiful landscape?" he finally asked the girl, using his more handsome voice tone. Joel felt different, much different with Paulette than with any other girl, and his nervous feelings inside of him were the proof. He looked at the Beauxbatons girl and took a deep breath, acting like if everything was normal.

Paulette was a bit surprised as Joel took her hand. She quietly nodded as her answer and both started walking. The shimmering lights dancing upon the lake's surface was absolutely breath taking. Her elegant strides were evenly matched by Joel's strong but sleek walk. Everything was in perfect harmony. She felt so excited she could barely contain it. The evening started very well and she prayed that the rest would go just as well.

In the mean time she would have an enjoyable conversation with Joel. She started with the ever so classic, "Was your day pleasant zo far, Joel?"
Her eyes jumped from the Hogwarts landscape to his handsome face, awaiting his response.

Joel felt so happy as Paulette and him walked around the grounds. The winter setting made Paulette's drees look perfect, and with that, it made the whole atmosphere feel perfect. The boy looked at Paulette as she talked, her voice sounded like a soft melody in Joel's ears.

"Was your day pleasant zo far, Joel?" the girl asked with her sweet French voice.

Joel thought for a moment, how had his day been? He waited a few seconds before replying. "Fine, I guess. It was a pretty normal day actually, except for the fact that...". Joel made another pause, before continueing. "Okay, it's not a normal day... With the Yule Ball and everything...". Joel could not get the correct words out of his mouth. He wanted to mension Paulette in his special day, but he wasn't sure what to say. Everything's so different... he said to himself. The boy took a deep breath, and just let his mouth say the best thing he could think of. "Today was a pretty normal day... until I saw you. You made my day happy, nice, good and special. If it wasn't for you, today wouldn't be Christmas for me".

As his words came out of his words, Joel smiled, it was actually better than how he thought it would've been. He felt some of his confidence come back to him. He felt himself again, or at least more than a few minutes before. But deep inside, he still felt different. Joel turned to the girl with a grin. "How has your day been, Paulette?" he asked her.
