| 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.

All these years, Precious thought she was the only freak at this school. Well, besides Constanta, who was half-werewolf only once a month. But Emma wasn't the same Emma Gray she knew before. She could control plants, by the look of it. And Preci thought her gift was something special. She gasped as the vine wrapped around her waist. No, no, no. It was too late to swim away. It lifted her above the water, her fin in clear view. She thrashed and twisted, trying to be set free, but it wouldn't budge. "PUT ME DOWN, DAMN IT!" she shouted. But Emma knew her secret already. And Precious knew hers too. |

Emma's jaw dropped. Her concentration broke, and so did the vine holding Precious. It grew limp without Emma to control it, and sank slowly into the lake, disappearing into the dark abyss. Emma stared at the lake, her eyes wide. An anxious bead of sweat fell down her face. "Precious!" called Emma. "Are you okay?" Safety now, questions later. |

The water surrounding her gave her a sense of safety. Some sense of control. She closed her eyes for a moment. Emma knew anyway, so what was the whole point of hiding anymore? She swam to the shore, where Emma was standing, afraid. She pulled herself onto the shore, her fin lying there, limp. Lifeless. Water was still dripping from the tip of her eyelashes, falling onto her lips. "So I guess that's it," she said, watching as the scales disappeared one by one. "Secret for secret? Something to use for blackmail. We're freaks Emma," Precious stopped herself from rambling. Her fin was almost gone. "I can't," At loss of words. "What was that, Emma?" |

Emma was silent, watching Precious' legs. "Freaks," she echoed quietly, her wet hair plastered to her face. "It's elementium," explained Emma, still keeping her voice quiet as though people were hiding, listening to them. She felt eyes, glued to her. Emma shuddered, picturing Azariah Amaranth's face looming in the distance. Her stomach ached. "I can control plants. It's kind of simple, really, it's just magic. A different kind of magic. A kind of magic that no one can know about, because I don't know what would happen to me. Or the others." Emma held her breath. "Tortal went over it in class and I had to keep my mouth shut. I couldn't stand it. It's taboo, I know it is... kind of like sprouting a tail when you hit water." Em stared at Precious' bare legs. "I would've never guessed. You always seem so... perfect. It's not like you can tell that there's something actually going on in your head. No offense." |

"Elementium," she whispered. "So there are others? Fire, earth, wind, and water, right?" There had to be. But where did plants come from? Would that be in the earth category? Precious sighed. "Stop stating the obvious," she teased, smiling. "I know I'm perfect-" Stop lying to yourself. "-and I wonder the same, Em. Now that there's this whole side of you that I didn't even know existed." As she bit her lower lip, she wrote into the sand with her index finger. Precious. It was sloppy, but she did it to avoid Emma's gaze. "So, promise to keep the secret?" she asked, holding up her pinky. Even though it wasn't smart to trust a Slytherin, this wasn't a one side thing. If Precious f*cked up, Emma would tell, and vice versa. |

Emma smiled shakily. "I guess I know why Tinsley liked you so much once upon a time," said Emma quietly, holding out her pinky. She wrapped it around Precious', and kissed her thumb for good luck. "Back in the day." Emma suddenly realized how close she was to Precious and moved over a little, her heart beating unusually fast. "Thanks for not killing me," said Emma suddenly. "I'm sure it's easier to kill a Ravenclaw than trust one. At least for someone like you." |

"Oh yeah, but Tinsley and I had our fun," she chuckled, shaking her head. "We'll be back one day. The Queens will be back. But for now, I guess this is just a break." Maybe it also was the reason why Precious was acting so human? The reason why she hadn't lashed out on Emma yet? "You didn't kill me with that thing. I'm just grateful for once in my life." she smiled at the girl beside her. "It's the end of the year, Emmie, cheer up. Next year will be different. I'm not sure how, but it will." she paused to hesitate and to ask herself, Will things be different? She had been keeping up this ego for almost six years. "Anyway," said Precious, tired of the mushy, getting along, being friends stuff. "Want to go back to the castle?" |

Emma nodded, looking at Precious like she had seen the girl for the first time in her life. She lifted herself up from the ground and extended a hand towards Precious, helping herself up. "Let's go get back to real life." Emma paused. "Your secret's safe with me." Smiling, Emma walked back up to the castle. |

Precious stood there for a moment, surprised as to what had just happened. "I hope so," she muttered, before heading back to the castle. |

Hellius laid in the grass. The roar of the crowd in the Quidditch pitch was... loud to say the least. It was reduced to a blunt roar from where he laid, and although it upset the silence and comfort of the night, it relaxed him. It was like white noise, or the chirp of crickets, or the sound of falling rain, or the cuh-clunk, cuh-clunk of trains clacking against the tracks. Yawning, Hellius rolled onto his side and stared towards the path leading back to the castle. The night was comfortable. The heat was still resonating from the ground below him, even if a soft breeze was beginning to blow over the grounds. The blades of tall grass tickled at the exposed skin on his arms, which was generally the only thing keeping him awake. He yawned. |

It was amazing, that Tristan had actually won the Task. She'd known all along that he would. She hadn't seen Savannah there either, the girl had probably already jetted off back to America to act. Addie couldn't help feeling reassured by the thought. Even though Sav had apologized, Addie still wasn't sure she trusted her. And Moody! Moody had believed her! This day seemed to be turning out to be perfect! Addie walked through the grounds at a leisurely pace, enjoying the time alone with her thoughts. After all, as soon as she made it to the Great Hall, things would be chaotic. Addie gazed up at the stars as she walked, smiling silently to herself. That was why she hadn't noticed Hellius lying on the ground. Well, hadn't noticed him until she'd tripped over him and face planted at least. |

Footsteps like grinding gravel began to consume everything Hellius could hear as groups and crowds flooded out of the pitch. Some students went off towards the lake, some just hugged the path, and one... one walked right into him and pummeled to the ground. Now on his back, Hellius groaned, biting the sides of his mouth, wanting to rub at where a bruise would undoubtedly grow. "And I thought I was gonna doze off for a second, there, too," Hellius yawned, lifting his head to look at the girl who was now laying on him. Seeing it was Addie, he dropped his head and patted at her lower back. "It's nice to see you." He sounded groggy. Edited by Hellius Surla, Aug 11 2010, 08:09:11 PM.

"Oooowwww." She groaned softly, feeling the boy patting her back lightly. Judging by the voice it was Hellius. "Sorry Hellius." She commented softly, carefully pushing herself off of him, laying down on the grass beside him. She definitely hadn't been expecting that. "Long time no see, where have you been hiding?" Addie asked, glancing over to him and rubbing her nose absently. Edited by Addie Lumineux, Aug 11 2010, 08:13:43 PM.

"Oh, you know. In plain sight. Or in the corner of the boy's dorms. Either or," Hellius responded, looking up at her as she pushed herself up. "What's new in the world of Addie? Any new... developments? for lack of a specific topic?" Folding his arms behind his head, he yawned, clicking his gums as his mouth closed. He turned his head and gazed into Addie's eyes. "Sorry 'bout your nose." Edited by Hellius Surla, Aug 11 2010, 08:19:40 PM.

"Hmm, new in the world of Addie eh?" She paused, looking thoughtful for a moment and meeting his gaze. "New developments... Well, Tris won, but you know that..." Addie bit down on her lip lightly, watching him. She'd told him about Jeremiah, sometime near the beginning of the year. Assuming he still remembered, it couldn't hurt to fill him in. "Remember what I told you about Jeremiah Svalbard? Well, I talked to Mad-Eye Moody. He believes me." Addie explained, watching him to see his reaction. "Moody also mentioned that myself and some others were going to be contacted over the summer... I kind of think he might mean everyone with Elementium abilities. Oh, and no problem, my fault anyway." |

"I've been getting migraines," Hellius said. "Really bad ones. Usually after elementium use. I think that's one of the main reasons I haven't been around. It hurts too damn much I can't even function." Hellius ground his teeth as he put his arm under him, so he was resting on his bicep. "How are your skills developing?" |

Migraines? I'm sorry to hear that." Addie frowned faintly, watching him with concern. "You don't have one now do you? I wouldn't want to bother you if you did." The Gryffindor fell silent, turning her attention to the stars thoughtfully. "My elementium... I haven't gotten to practice as much as I wanted to, what with OWLs and the Tournament and everything. I guess I haven't improved much since the summer." She commented, frowning faintly. |

"Right now... naw. Earlier, yeah. Sleep cures everything, as it seems," Hellius sighed. He closed his eyes. "I've developed... pretty well, I suppose. Or so says Tortal. If Moody is interested in us, he and whoever else will want to... exploit our abilities to accomplish where they've failed. "If you want, I can help you train. Light and shadows seem to compliment each other." Hellius sighed again and looked into Addie's eyes. "If you want." He half shrugged. |

"Well, I'm glad you've learned a lot... As for Moody and them, I want to help them. I want to help defeat Azariah and his knights, especially Svalbard." Addie sighed, paused and turning her attention from the sky to Hellius. "You'll help me train? I'd like that a lot! But what about your migraines?" |

"It's no biggie. It only happens when I push myself, and it doesn't hurt extensively until I've been doing it for a few hours. But you know me," Hellius pushed himself up so he was sitting. He plopped himself next to Addie, so his back was facing her. "I assume you know what I can take. After all..." You've seen more than anyone else has.
