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?

Sixth Year...Falling through the gaps

Pandora fled out into the corridor, tears streaming down her face as she ran. She came to a pressing halt when she realized she had left one of her personal books there, not the library one. She grabbed the wall as she spun around, her mind racing with a choice she didn't want to make. Go back and get the book or loose it most likely forever. Pandora wasn't one to face up in a fight, she usually was the submissive one, but it was one of her favorite books, given to her by her granmother shortly before she passed away. It was a treasure to her.

Pandora sobbed harder at her cowardliness as she sunk to the floor, curling up in her protective ball as she cried. She shook pretending that it was her mother's old comforting hugs and not just her own hands for once.

Louis walked calmly into the corridor, faintly hearing the patter of shoes running swiftly. He shook his head, he was probably hearing things. He held (presumably) one of the girl's books that she had left in the library, tightly in the grasp of his right hand. It looked bland and just plain boring as Louis took a glance at the cover. It was Louis' superficial attitude at work. Humming a tune to himself, resembling Amazing Grace, he walked down the corridor with his head held high and chest puffed out like a something was up his ass.

Now he heard sobs as he neared the end of the corridor. Okay, this time he wasn't imagining things. Louis spotted a figure in the corner near the exit and Louis cringed. It was that girl from the library, her arms huddled around herself as if she was giving herself a hug. Wrapped like a ball, she was concealed well in the shadows and if he didn't hear the sobs he most likely would of passed her by. At first he was quite reluctant, he wasn't exactly that type of guy that goes around comforting vulnerable girls. He was one who didn't care about a thing and partied day and night. But something compelled him to care, to be sympathetic, to be more human and less of a tool.

"Hey," Louis said quietly in a caressing whisper once he reached her and sunk onto the floor beside her. Now he was speechless. He didn't really know what to say. He never gotten into these types of situations where sympathy and empathy were needed. "Need a hug?" Louis asked. Well it was better than nothing.

Pandora heard footsteps approaching but had no time to move. She glanced up, her face puffy and pressumeably tear stroken as she realized it was the boy from earlier, the brother that had come across her in all her pathetic glory. He clearly looked uncomfortable. Even after all these years, Luke still got uncomfortable with her hysterical fits. She cringed to herself, she really had to stop comparing guys to her brother.

"I'm sorry, I'm...so pathetic." She stammered as she silently leant into the boy. She wasn't quite sure who the apology was for, whether it was for him or just to everyone in general. The huge expectation she placed on her brothers, her parents, her friends, Brandon. Her eyes re-watered at the thought of her ex-boyfriend. This was what drove him away. Her inability to be herself. Why was it so easy to hug a near stranger? "I'm..Panda." She mumbled embarassed as she suddenly pulled back.

Louis blinked for a moment, he didn't expect her to actually lean into him. But eventually gave in, he wasn't used to this whole feeling of sympathy and the intention of making someone feel better. The feeling felt foreign but very familiar as if this unusual emotion had been neglected for years. It was a stupid thought, to think that an emotion could be neglected and forgotten, but that's how it felt.

"You don't have to be sorry," Louis hushed gently, the words flowed suddenly out of his mouth like he had done this a million times before. Doctor Phil was on the job. He gave a vague smile, never been really used out in the open. It was his smirk that was usually on display. "And my brother is the pathetic one. Picking on a someone a year below him... pfft really."

He understood Demetri more than his dear older brother knew. He was the golden child and a great example of the de Valentine pureblood beliefs even if he was a half-blood. Louis, however, was instantly hated from the moment he was born. What a joy. "Panda? Lovely name," Louis smiled, leaning back on the stone wall," I'm Louis by the way. But people call me Lu."

Pandora sniffed. "Yes I should be, my brother tells me I shouldn't go into a hysterical fit in front of kind strangers." Pandora admitted as she glanced at her hands a small blush appearing on her cheeks at this admittance. Yes, when nervous as well as stammering and blushing Pandora had a tendency of saying overly truthful things. "He does that a lot..." She murmered, under her breath more than anything.

"Panda is short for Pandora." She said after a moment, trying to fill her own self-induced silence. "Thanks for...thanks for that Louis." Pandora spoke as she managed to be brave enough to meet Louis' gaze for a moment before flickering back down to her lap.

"You just need a bit of self-esteem, that's all," Louis fumbled. Talking to someone who looked like they were about to burst like a broken fire hydrant was extremely hard. But somehow, he felt warm inside as he tried to cheer her up. He glanced at her retreating figure and wrapped an arm around her. At first it felt strangely out of place, until it his arm felt comfortable. "Besides, hysterical fits are a good sign that your not one of those fake wannabes or cold hearted people who think emo is cool," Louis shrugged, suddenly finding that his commment was rather tacticless.

"Hey, no worries. It's not everyday you can kick your brother's ass and manage to comfort his target. I'm pretty sure that he won't be bothering you anymore."

Pandora nodded in agreeance. That was definitely something she needed. She had been told so many times. "I suppose...emo people actually scare me." Pandora admitted with a soft giggle as she sniffed and wiped the drying tears off her face as she did so. She appreciated Louis attempting to cheer her up, she really did. In a odd way it reminded her of how Brandon use to hold her when she cried, but completely different at the same time. With Louis she didn't feel as though he could pull her heart out if he wanted to.

"You feel like one of those muggle superheroes now? Umm...batman? I think?" Pandora half babbled before realizing that Louis wouldn't know what she was talking about.

"The intense eyeliner is what really freaks me out," Louis smiled, chuckling light-heartedly. Well it only took a few exchanging of words before he managed to steer them off the thought of bursting into tears. Her giggle made him smile, it felt good to cheer someone up. It felt different, what he was feeling right now. Now he felt warm and fuzzy inside, rather different to the usual feeling of constant adrenaline surging through his body.

"Batman?" Louis laughed softly," You can read personalities well Pandora." It kind of suited him. Louis was rich, he had a big ego and he was a rebellious party boy. But now that he was with Pandora, he was humble and had an urge to do something good. It was a weird feeling and he didn't know if he wanted to feel it or not.

Pandora nodded as she bit her lip unconciously. "My mother got eyeliner tattooed onto her eyelid with ink and stuff. It use to scare me as a kid when I'd wake up and she'd have perfectly done eyes but no other makeup." Pandora explained, her Australian accent coming out thicker as she remembered this random memory. She wasn't quite sure why she was telling Louis this but it seemed sensible to keep a conversation going.

Pandora was relieved when it seemed that Louis knew what she was referring to. "Well Lucas use to make me watch it as kids when I wanted to watch Pokemon. Lucas is my twin brother, he's in Ravenclaw as well." Pandora explained as she ran a hand through her hair, trying to peel the bits that had begun to stick away carefully.

Louis went all silent at the mention of the word mother, a slight cringe appeared from his face and like a flash it went away rather quickly. No one knew of his uncomfortable feeling at the mention of a mother, mum, mom, madre... And he hadn't gone to terms with it still, after six years he still didn't exactly know why he was all prickly about it. Perhaps it was because he was the cause of his mother's unfortunate death? Or maybe he longed for a motherly figure? Maybe because it was because of his mother that his whole family hates him? He could go on forever with the useless questions. He tend not to linger over such complications when it came to family. As far as he could tell, Hogwarts was his home and never with the rest of the de Valentines.

"Pika pi?" Louis mimicked the oh so cute Pikachu at the mention of Pokémon. Just because he was from a pureblood family, he was still a half-blood and he had an urge and a fascination of muggle culture. He would always sneak out and go to a muggle neighbour where he would watch all sorts of muggle shows. She had gave him books to read, much to his dislike, but at least he knew about all sorts of muggle literature. "Really? It's like instantly having your own best friend from the moment of birth."

Pandora couldn't help but laugh, remembering how one of her housemates had dressed up as Pikachu earlier for Halloween. She instead was in a giant gown. Which surprisingly was quite easy to sit in. Pandora shrugged. "Yeah, except Luke gets a little too overprotective sometimes. Which I suppose seeing what happened earlier is understandable. I love my brother, he's helped me through a lot. So I suppose he is my best friend." Pandora figured after a moment.

"Are you going to the Halloween feast?" Pandora asked after a moment, as she glanced down the empty corridor, figuring that would be where most people were at that moment.

"Your brother sounds like a legend," Louis smiled, looking around the corridor to see if Demetri was lurking in one of the corners, sniggering to himself at Louis' lousy attempt to show compassion. He had to admit, having a brother who had a personal goal to try and ruin your life was far more entertaining than one who didn't. Besides, Mason - his father, wouldn't allow two rebellious brothers.

He kind of smirked at the mention of the Halloween Feast. Now there's a scene he wanted to be at. Louis pondered for a moment before answering," It depends if your coming or not."

"I don't know whether I should, I might get the dress dirty." Pandora pointed out as she glanced at her dress. She sighed to herself remembering the promise she made to Brandon before ignoring her guilt. She'd see him there.

Pandora shut her eyes for a moment before taking a breathe. "Okay let's go." Working up her confidence as she stood up, offering a hand to Louis.

"What is a dress when you can't flaunt it off?" Louis asked smugly, returning her rhetorical question with his usual smirk. Finally, he was back to the old Louis de Valentine, the boy who's borderline drunkard. Note, the word borderline.

A smile erupted from his lips as he stood up and claimed her petite hand in his and lifted her gently up. Now they were talking, he wanted to get to the Great Hall without or without his liquid gold. "After you my dear.." With that Pandora and Louis headed for the Great Hall.
