The Whomping Willow

[Guest]

Sirius levitates a stick to hit the knot in the tree then transforms and enters.

[Guest]

*notices the Whomping Willow's knot was hit, but doesn't think much of it and enters the shrieking shack. Simultaneously humming Draco and Harry by the Whomping Willows*
"Oh, hello! I thought I was the only one in here. I was going to practice some of my defensive spells up here, mind a hand?"

[Guest]

Whomping Willow's got spunk.

Bigglesworth walks up to the tree. 'Huh, what with the ancient tree?' He thought as he looked at it. Suddenly uit gave a great lurch at the ground. Bigglesworth on instinct jumped and scooted up it. 'WHY DID I RUN AT IT!?!' He thought as he hung on while the tree straightened up. 'HEEELLPPP MEE!!!' The cat screeched and screeched.

[Guest]

Bigglesworth watched the girl immobilize the tree and pick him up. 'Thank you!' He thought as he nuzzled her.

-Is bored and wanders over to this nice looking tree wondering if I can climb to the top-

[Rita Skeeter - Inactive]

Rita settled next to it, jumped and shrieked as it started hitting at her, and dove through the hole, breathing hard.

She cussed at the tree, waving her wand and making her notes appear before settling down to write in an earthy tunnel.

Rita Skeeter, attractive sixteen-year-old reporter for Hogwarts Daily, has unearthed a love triangle like none other between an angry angsty Slytherin boy, the daughter of a dark lord, and a muggle born Gryffindor. Says Angel, our Slytherin boy, of Danni, the daughter of Gellert Grindelwald, "She's gorgeous." He refers to our Gryffindor heartthrob as "ruddy little Gryffindor", Dean Thomas. Dean swept Danni off of her pretty little feet, and Angel "Caught them doing the shag in a tent". As this is against Hogwarts rules, I one can only hope the issue matter is inver investigated fully.
When your Hogwarts' Daily reporter talked to Danni Grindelwald, Angel was seen in a whole new light, being called a "drunken arse", and being accused of cursing a fellow student. However, Danni admits, "Angel is HOT", although she disagrees about "doing the shag" with Dean, saying "Dean and I were camping". Some other, unchecked, accusations have been brought against Angel, but they aren't even worth reporting. However, Dean allegedly cheated while Danni was in Bulgaria. Danni's testimony named Dominique Weasley and Tam Riddle.
Dominique denies all charges, saying, "We're just friends." That's not what Dean said.
Dee Riddle, Dean's ex-girlfriend, casts some light on Dean's average behavior. "Dean spent more time with other girls and attacked me. The filthy bastard." Is it any wonder that Angel calls this boy that "ruddy little Gryffindor"? Let's see what Dean's got to say.

Rita vanished the papers again, excited to interview Dean so that she could publish it as soon as possible. She peeked out of the hole and sprinted out of range, not knowing how to freeze the tree.

[Gabriel Djinn Whiteraven]

-Djinn appears asleep, in the middle of the Willow's branches-

Djinn woke up, a rose blossom clutched tightly in his hand. Absentmindedly he lifts the strange, wicked bloom to his nose and sniffed the cloyingly sweet perfume. A Blood Rose. So last night had really happened, and he had really destroyed someone. It was so differnt from killing, he had actually unraveled someone's soul on orders...orders from higher gods that he didn't usually listen to.

But he had to admit, his headdache was gone. He wasn't flickering in and out anymore and the drugs were finally all the way out of his system. He wasn't ready to drink himself to death anymore; he wasn't hungry either. He didn't want to hurt anyone, he just felt numb. He was hapy now...the human emotions were all gone. That meant that the Gods had spoken, and he had been forced to obey...no more friends. No more human emotions or he'd be demoted to less than a mud statue. He'd be nothing but a shade.

That meant he couldn't be there for Reg when the 'stuff' happened. He couldn't be there for Joel, or Viktor. He'd have to go back on his Bonds and be the normal, indifferent, unhelpful being that had been in that bottle.

THIS IS IMMEDIATELY AFTER THE MURDER.

Dee rushed over, looking over her shoulder with every step. Had someone found Pansy? Why was she such a terrible person? Six murders now? She sits down, breathing hard. Where to go? What to do? Did people know it was her? How would they though? A million questions burned through her mind. She pushed her hair back, stressed and scared. Where to hide? She had to hide. The Willow groaned behind her. She snapped around, glancing at it. Perfect! She had used the secret passageway before, and knew what to do. She levitated a branch, and moved it so it hit the knot. The tree froze, as it should, and she rushed into the little passageway, sparing one last look at Hogwarts as she did.

AND NOW DEE WILL BE GONE UNTIL FRIDAY NIGHT.

[Angela Braddock]

Angela walked quietly out to the whomping willow to wait for Pansy

[Pansy Parkinson-Malfoy]

[OMG POST-MURDER SCENE UP THERE. ^^^ BAD MEMORIES.]

Pansy wandered down to the lake, scanning the area for Angela. Finding her near the Whomping Willow, she slipped across the landscape and sat down beside her. "Ready for some plotting then?" She asked with a smirk. "Didn't give in to the boy yesterday, did you?"

[Angela Braddock]

[OMR LOL]

she smirked when she saw Pansy "of course i'm ready. and no. i didn't" she looked at the ground

[Pansy Parkinson-Malfoy]

Pansy narrowed her eyes and gave her an appraising look. "Why don't I fully believe you..." she asked with half a smirk.

[Angela Braddock]

she laughed "nothing happened after you left i swear. in fact, i went and found my friend albus and got a little friendly with him" she smirked

[Pansy Parkinson-Malfoy]

Pansy laughed. "Well, well. That's one way to do it." She smiled and tried to stay lighthearted, though such a situation made her think of Blaise, which gave her a general thunderstorm of feelings that she didn't like to worry with. "Anyway, have you got something in mind for our dear Severus, then?"

[Angela Braddock]

she thought "Not sure. something along the lines of him never getting to sex anyone ever again might suffice" she smirked

[Pansy Parkinson-Malfoy]

Pansy nodded. "That's what I was thinking. Friend or not, that wand of his has ruined one too many relationships." Luckily, Pansy still did not know about Snaco, or else she would be even more pissed off than she already was, and Severus Snape might very well be in a more dangerous position than he already was.

[Angela Braddock]

she nodded eagerly. "alright. where do we start?" Angela was no good at these things as she is a Gryffindor and not good with evil plots

[Pansy Parkinson-Malfoy]

"Well, naturally, we'll have to figure out how and where to get him alone. It shouldn't be too difficult. He's generally alone anyway. When should we go after him, do you think?" Pansy stretched her legs out in the grass, happy to be plotting again, and only feeling mildly guilty that it was against someone she'd considered a friend.

[Angela Braddock]

Ange thought "hmm...sometime when he won't be around a lot of people. that excludes any time during the day what with classes and meals. perhaps before he goes to bed?"

[Pansy Parkinson-Malfoy]

"Maybe. Perhaps we could find a way to lure him down to the lake or the forest. Dungeons, even. Catch him on his way to the dormitories." She shrugged, not really sure how to best go about this. She usually did things like this alone, it was strange planning it with someone else.

[Angela Braddock]

"Sounds good. do you want to do the leading? or should I? I mean...you know him, but I'm not sure i could handle the spells..."
