Dominique finished her breakfast and sat there at Gryffindor Table with her friends. Sh perked her head up and started glancing around at the Great Hall. Suddenly something caght her eye. She hopped up from the Table and made her way to the East Wall of the Great Hall, where they kept the rules. There in plan sight was the rule Dominique had been waiting for. "Any students, 5th year and up that want to enter the Triwizard Tournament, please put your name in the Goblet of Fire." Dominque's face lit up as she skippped happily back to Gryffindor Table. "You guys are never going to believe this! they changed the rules of the Triwizard Tournament. Now 5th years and up can enter! I am going to put my name in later today!" She excitedley sipped her orange juice, waiting for her friends responses.

Albus Severus Potter
I Chose Gryffindor But Slytherin Would Have Been Fine

And when I think of all the places I just don't belong
I've come to grips with life and realize this is going too far

I don't belong here, we gotta move on dear
Escape from this afterlife
’Cause this time I'm right to move on and on
Far away from here

Albus walked into the great hall, his book held up to his nose as he read and he glanced around at the bickering of students. He didn't mind the noise level but the random pranks being done to first years in this room and around the school as they searched the castle was rather annoying. Just a few minutes ago he reversed to jinxes on a hex on two hufflepuff girls and one gryffindor one. He also had to help a poor first year slytherin who was hanging upside down by his ankle, only to be thanked with a snrle. He was probably some deatheaters son or something.

Albus looked around noticing Lily sitting at the table already and he walke dover, still reading his book before stopping when there was a small yelp from a frist year ravenclaw boy infront of him and the boy twisted in the air being levitated by his ankle. Albus shook his head pulling his wand form his pocket and flicking it in the direction of the boy and they slowly fell to the ground.

He walked over and sat by Lily sighing as he did so.

"This year is going to be full of pranks, I can tell now. It's rather annoying if I must say"

Albus poured a cup of pumpkin juice saying mroning to the friends sitting near him and returned to his book occasionally munching on toast or eegs.

I don't belong here, I gotta move on dear
escape from this afterlife
’Cause this time I'm right to move on and on,
far away from here


Got nothing against you and surely I'll miss you
This place full of peace and light, and I’d hope you might
Take me back inside when the time is right

Riley sat in the Slytherin commons for a few more moments alone before standing from the couch she was sitting on. Looking at the time on her wrist the girl grumbled. There was still over an hour until breakfast was over. She didn’t want to have to walk back to the great hall, but she didn’t want to sit alone in the commons. Placing her arms across her body the girl pulled the books in her hand to her. Walking from the commons the girl found her way to the halls that would bring her to the great hall. Walking into the great hall with a group of other people standing aside her. A group of fourth year Hufflepuffs made their way to the opposite side of the great hall once interring. As though there was something wrong with her for having the uniform she had on, and the bed she slept on. The girl gave a glare of aggravation. She knew that wouldn’t help her case in the slightest; but it made her feel a bit better.

Sitting down at her table she tried to listen to the random chatting that seemed to be going on with in the whole table, but she couldn’t bring herself to pull out one conversation out off all of them. Setting her books on the table she pulled a cup of pumpkin juice towards her and began to sip on it. A few of her friends smiled as she sat down, but they instantly began to speak of their conversations prior to her arrival. The girl sat her cup down and began to look around the table at those who had gathered. The first year Slytherins were all mixed in within the other years, but yet she could pick them out immediately. She knew a few of them, from family parties and what not. But most of them were complete strangers. Tracing her finger on the rim of her cup the girl looked at the books she had with her, only wanting class to start more. Being out of the conversations didn’t stay for long. A blonde slytherin began to speak off to her, about whatever they seemed to be muttering about. She nodded only every once in a while and then spoke a few yeses or no’s when she thought was appropriate. Placing her check on her hand the girl completely dazed out.

Hey eyes barley saw what was going on, and her ears were only slightly hearing what people were saying. As they spoke she nodded and did really nothing else at this point. Her mind started to drift back to quidditch. She thought of the small spirited snitch. It always moving so quickly and swiftly. She let out a small sight before one person asked. ’Are you listening to me?’ The girl spoke a no, and with that she got shoved over. In the rustle of this the girl lost her balance. Falling backwards the girl pulled upon her friends shoulder and she came tumbling down with her. As they hit the ground Riley let out a large eruption of laughter as eyes began to look over. Her friend didn’t see this as entertaining as she for her face turned bright red and she quickly tried to shuffle back to her seat. Riley leaned back on the ground and kept her laughing going.

Erin May:

Erin looked up when she saw a girl get shoved. She frowned and got up, going over with Jaden still on her shoulder and helped the other girl up. "You okay?"She asked quietly. She shook her head slightly, upset that someone would treat other people that way. She looked back at Riley and then glared at the other girls before shaking her head slightly and grabbing her bag. Turning she grabbed her mail and then muttered something that sounded like "Disrespectful people."

Cage William Patrickson

Cage walked down the hall not really seeing anything. He was groggy eyed and half sleep walking. all summer he had been used to sleeping in until one of his parents forced him to wake up. Upon entering the Great hall he was hit with the chatter of excited first years and the smell of sweet, sweet breakfast. He glanced over to the Hufflepuff table and seen only a few of his house members there "lazy, boring old hufflepuffs" he thought to himself.

He walked over to his house table and sat down, asking the house mates that were there how it was going. He looked up toward the front of the great hall and seen the goblet of fire. Realizing he hadnt put his name in last night, he decided that he would do it at the end of breakfast, but right now he was just worried about getting some food in his stomach.

As another girl came to her aid; Riley had just finished laughing at her mishap. The girl felt a bit confused. Sitting back up upon the bench she muttered a thank you as the girl made it from the room. Riley’s face was confused as she looked to her friend. They both shrugged it off as she grinned wide. That sort of thin happened a lot to her. When it did she couldn’t help but laugh at it. For the whole part was a mere accident. She looked up towards the teachers. She noted some of them were gone, others were not. Looking now to the goblet of fire she wondered when the champions would be called, and what would happen when they were called. Soon her mind began to wonder to the tri-wizard tournament once more.

She began to speak among with her friends until the thought of the Tri-Wizard traditions were brought up. The tradition of the Yule ball was now brought up. The girl’s began to ask who was going to ask whom. Riley herself didn’t know who she was going to ask. Looking around the great hall at the faces of those around her eyes stopped at the face of Albus Potter. Her checks began to turn a light shade of pink. This was caught immediately. One of the Slytherins at the table began ”What on earth are you doin’ Renolds? You got a screw lose in yer head?” The boy’s illiterate British accent made him known for the way he spoke. The girl’s face turned to the one who spoke and protested ”What are you speaking of? You’re kidding!? You don’t think i…” the girls face turned back to the Potter son before quickly ignoring this motion. ”You’re bloody crazy!” the girl protested in a loud voice. A few more slytherins began to laugh at this mishap. She grumbled under her breath. ”Leave it, You’re all blind.” The girl took her cup and began to drink the pumpkin juice within it. She then tried to ignore the mutters of those around her now. She grumbled every once in a while at a comment she disapproved with, but for the time being she was going to stay quiet. She seemed to be over loading herself today.

Cage William Patrickson

Cage filled up on his breakfast and decided that nobody at his table was really interested in talking this morning, so he decided to brush up on his history. First he grabbed a piece of paper from one of his friends newspapers and wrote down his name on it. As he left to go to the library he stopped at the Goblet and threw his name in. With a flash of blue flame, it hung for a second, and then was gone. He heard a few claps behind him from all the tables other than the slytherins, who felt that anyone out of there house probably wasnt worry of being involved in the events.

Cage really hoped that he was chosen for the triwizard tournament, he could use some excitment in his life, but he figured even just watching it would be exciting enough, plus he had quidditch. Thinking now about quidditch, Cage turned and left the great hall for the library.

Albus looked bakc feeling someone's eyes on him and he noticed Riley. he smiled politely at her before he saw her look away quickly. She was prettier and had a better personality than Kya but she was a slytheirn so she probably hated him.

He sighed slightly looked back to his friends and decided he wasn't hungry. He stood up, getting his bags and schedule from McGonagall. He walked out the Great Hall slowly stopping in the entrance hall to read his schedule. He had Chamrs First, With Slytherin...he sighed wondeirng if Neville had the same thing, hopefully he did.

Dominique sighed as she finished her breakfast. She grabbed her schedule and backpack as she exited the Great Hall. After exiting, she took a quick peekl at her schedule. She had History of Magic first. She exited the Great Hall when she noticed Albus standing there. "Hey Albus! Whats up? What do you have first this morning?" Dominique said smiling.

 

[sKITTLES mAKE mEH hIGH]

Rose [Rosey] Senicah [Brave] Weasley [Uhg]

Rose smiled at Dominique. "I am so happy you can join!" She said.

Rose finished up her breakfast just as Albus walked in. He was probably right. I just hope no pranks get played on the Beauxbaton or Durmstrang students. She would feel bad for them. Being in and weird place and then get pranked. That would be horrible.

She was popped out of her thoughts by Dominique. She waited for Albus' reply so she could say hers. It would be rude to pop in when it was Albus' question.

((Wtf! My post aren't working right. I tried to fix it. Grr!))  

[Kiki somoko]

Rosalie. Marie. Taylor.



Rosalie clung to the book that her arms rested around, she peeked around the corner, into the Great Hall; she really did hate giant crowds. Everyone at the Hufflepuff table were usually fairly nice, but still. Who likes a book worm who uses facts about magical creatures to avoid people? Fact is, she was part veela, fact is boys scared the hell out of her, fact is she’s a fairly decent runner and she gets a lot of running in.

She shuffled over to her house table. Of course, she took a seat a good distance away from everyone else. She needed to eat quickly, so that she could leave, maybe go to the library. She plopped down, and went to buttering some toast. She munched on it as she flipped the book open with one hand, the book read Hairy Snout, Human Heart, it was a fascinating book about werewolves. She fingered the back of the book, setting it down to turn the page, then picking it up once more. This routine continued until she had finished off two pieces of toast, and some eggs. As quickly as she’d come she was off, off to the silence, and off to the solitude. Books just always seemed to talk louder to her than socializing with others. And magical creatures or animals, she just seemed to function better around them. Maybe that’s why she’d rather wham a bludger at someone rather than talk to them. Helps with the stress at least. She pushed herself up slinging her bag over her shoulder.

Before reaching her first destination, the exit, she glanced back. The Triwizard Tournament huh? Someone died once, but they still continue the tournament, it just seemed so fresh. So real right now, death. She wouldn’t risk her life for eternal glory, she’d rather risk a couple broken bones in Quidditch, which, mind you, she did. At first sight, you wouldn’t think her to play Quidditch, especially not in one of the Beater’s positions. Not many people knew her though. And if they did, she was labeled as that Metamorphmagus that always had her nose in a book.

Sometimes, she did get trouble for her status, but what could she do? Nothing really. Why fight back? Why prove there point, that she really was not to be trusted by others. More experienced Metamorphmagi can change there entire appearance at will, obviously they thought she was actually that skilled. Haha, yeah no. Her grades were decent, advanced scores in the things she loved, the things she nurtured. Her shoes hit the stone floor as she headed to the stairs, to the library. What would she read when she got there though? Hmm, what hadn’t she read? Perhaps a history book? Yes, maybe. She’d decide once she was there, and was surrounded by books.

{{You know what, D: you people scare the living crap out of me with your super amazing RPing skills you know? > > I had to write a book for this one post to make up. }}

The light haired fifth year immediately noted when the Gryffindor boy known as Albus stood up and dismissed himself from the great hall. The girl watched him go from the corner of her almond eyes. Turning her attention back to her table of fellow Slytherin's the girl began to sip on her pumpkin juice once more. Taking a long sip she pulled her schedule from her Quidditch book and glanced at it. Farmierizing herself with her classes in her mind she saw herself walking the halls. Each class the rooms changed, and every time she thought of another. After finishing this mental note for herself the girl let out a deep sigh. She wondered how the classes would be as of this year. She smiled a bit at the thought of new almost everything. New teachers, new books; and most of all the same defence against the dark arts teacher. This time only with new material. She was happy she hadn’t had to get use to another teacher this year. The previous three years she had to. Hogwarts never seemed to be able to keep a good teacher for more than a year, this was an annoying mishap in her mind. But all in all they were able to keep grasp upon their current teacher. For their standing relations the girl rather liked her teacher. For the class was one of her favorites.

Glancing upon her paper once more the girl noted she had Transfiguration first hour. She let out a annoyed sigh. She was terrible with Transfiguration. She had nothing against the teacher of coarse. Mrs. McGonagall was as she’d always been; headmistress, and her teacher as in the same. She’d been late on many occasion to class. This was not always her fault. Tripping and what not always did a nasty number on her knees and timing. Letting her mind drift the girl began to remember around her fourth year of last year she was late to class by the whole class. She’d gotten caught on the moving staircase. Those blasted things, always in her way. She hated them, she truly did. Finding her way in a dark part of the school, she attempted to find her way out. Instead she got herself lost. Stopped in the middle of the hallway and sat there. Waiting. Soon by lunch time she’d been found by Filch. Truth be told it really wasn’t Filch that had found her. It was his cat. Scary thing she was, all matted up and mysterious purple eyes. The girl had been found and no harm was done. Other than Five points from Slytherin. That was annoying. She couldn’t help it she’d gotten herself lost. Going much farther would have probably gotten her killed. Now she pulled herself to back to the present as she was being tapped on the shoulder. A fellow Fifth year Slytherin was attempting to get her attention. As she did so Riley nodded only briefly. The girl finally asked. ”Are you ready for Transfiguration?” With that the brown haired Slytherin smiled a bit and stood up, gathering her books.

She was ready for class, really she was. But taking her first hour as Transfiguration really threw her off. She let out a deep sigh as the two Slytherin Fifth years began to walk out of the Great hall. She wondered how early they would be to class. Glancing at a small watch on her wrist the girl was surprised at how much time had truly passed. The girl placed her hand back on her books as her friend began to speak to her. Smiling at her she nodded every once in a while to show she was still listening. The two progressed down three halls and two flights of stairs; Maybe more? She wasn’t truly paying attention. But before she knew it the girl was in a familiar room of their Headmistress. As she entered the room she noticed her and her friend were very early. Only the fourth and fifth student to arrive in class. She smiled triumphantly to herself as she and her friend took their seat. She now sat in the second row on the left side of the class room. She liked being close, but not necessarily front row close. Pulling out her notebook and a Quil the girl readied herself for the class that was soon approaching.

Albus looked at his older cousin and smiled politely at her. Hopefully she would have some class with her. Yes they were in different years but Hogwarts was wierd, they mixed everyone together.

"Hey Dominique!, Oh I have transfiguration, what about you?"

He waited pateiently for a reply from the girl when Rose walked out of the Great Hall and over to them. He smiled at her and nodded at her slightly. He didn't really talk to anyone last night, he just plopped into bed and fell asleep almsot instantly.

"Morning Rosey"

Albus looked at his watch and jumped, class started in about four minutes, and it took some time to get to the potions classroom, it was in the dungeons.

"I have to go, I can't be late for potions, Slughorn would kill me"

He bid farewell to hsi cousins and turned around and ran towards the first floor, jumping steps until he reached it. He ran down the hall to the transfiguration classroom and sighed when he stood before it..

Albus sighed entering the classroom just as the bell rung and he looked at his professor who kindly pointed to on of the only, three empty seats. He sat down and took out his notebook, quill, ink, and wand, just in case.

"Good Morning Professor...sorry for almsot being late, I lost track of time"

'It's quite alright Albus, you weren't late.'

Albus nodded at the teacher's reply before smiling slightly, he loved Transfiguration, it was he was excellent at it. In fact Albus was great at every subject except for divination.

"Oh I have.....potions first too...." She said before Albus took off. "Wow...he obiviously has a messed up watch, mine says we have like 15 minutes before class." Dominque shrugged him off before turning to Rose. "Oh hey Rose. I have History of Magic first this morning, what about you?" She stood waiting for Rose to reply.

Lily | Luna | Potter

Said I forgot, but I did not
Dreams we have had play in my head
Did we believe the cry of the wind?
Did we regret? Would we forget?

For a moment, the exhaustion that came with the constant nightmares she was having seemed to catch up with her, taking her breath away. Lily blocked out the noised from the rest of the Great Hall, even forgetting that she was sitting with a whole bunch of her friends, who were probably speaking to her. She was so tired that she felt as though she could pass out right then and there. Blinking a few times, her green eyes readjusted to her surroundings. Sheepishly, she hoped that nobody noticed her absence from the conversations going on around her. It was better to keep her friends in the dark when it came to how she was really feeling. The normal smile settled on her face. She would ask Madame Pomphrey for some Dreamless Sleep potion. The woman always felt a little sorry for her, and sometimes let her stay in the infirmary at night so the girl could sleep without waking anyone else up.

But then she received her schedule, just like the other students, opening it quickly to see what class she had first. "Arithmancy? At nine in the morning?!" she complained. Arithmancy was one of the hardest classes she was taking. She was very smart, so she could handle it, but it was so early in the morning! She'd been hoping that it would be one of her afternoon classes, along with Ancient Runes, which happened to come right after it. "And then Ancient runes!!! I'm dead," she decided. Why did she have to pick two of the hardest classes to take? Well, she was always a bit inspired by the story about Aunt Hermione, who'd used a time-turner to take every single class. So she wanted to take the most impressive classes, since it would be too stressful to take all the classes offered at Hogwarts.

Looking at her friends, she smiled. "I think I'm going to head out. It's about time for class anyway," she said, standing up. "I'll see you guys later." She walked out of the Great Hall.

Winters have come and gone you know
Winters have come and gone you know
But I’ll miss you young and sweet
For a dance round the memory tree
