First she needed to find Destiny and Evelyn to you know... tell them why she was going to be MIA for most of the train ride. She definitely didn't need them to come looking for her later when she would be busy.



Why was this boy staring at her like that? Did she have something on her...

Ohhhh...

So this was Jimmy's friend Finn. The friend that gave Jimmy that split lip that cut into her snogging time with him. She was tempted to punch Finn in his mouth and give him a split lip so he wouldn't be able to snog anyone but she decided against it... for now. Probably wouldn't be a good idea right now since she did want his help with something. "Nice to finally meet you Finn."

Yep, she would be nice to him... until he gave her a reason not to be nice.



Raising an eyebrow she gave Sal a a mischievous smile. "Exciting huh? Yeah I had an exciting summer too." Actually she had a great summer. "Almost profitable... thanks to me? How's that?" She hadn't seem him all summer except at Jakes party and there they didn't even talk.

And why was he winking at her?

He decided that it was nicer just having his name as it was. The badge hadn't changed anything really, other than him wanting to use it as a chick magnet. hehe. "Yeah...." He nodded with a grin. School was better than home for him really. And at least he didn't have any exams to do this year. Which was good. He hated exams.



Hmm. This Marie looked like she was plotting something, which Finn had a feeling was not a good idea. Maybe it was good that he kept on her good side, because he didn't exactly want to experiance what she might be plotting. "Yeah....it is." Finn grinned at her. She was pretty, he would have to congratulate his mate on hooking her in. Although he did kind of hope that Marie wouldn't steal Jimmy all the time. Maybe Finn needed some more male friends....itw ould help with things really.



Oh yeah. He lived in a mansion. "You don't have to remind me how big my house is Mia...." Finn smirked at her, with a shake of her head. He wasn't that silly that he forget that he lived in a huge house. "Sound sawesome." He nodded with a grin. He'd probably just ask her for a butterbeer or something...keep an eye on her for Nik? heh. It was totally innocent though, because Mia was his best friend. They were able to have drinks right? Well yes. They were in his books, and he was a prefect, so he was epic.

Finlay laughed. "Of course you would."

"Okay how's this? First Hogsmeade weekend, I shall buy you anything you want." Now how could he possibly refuse an offer like that?

Detention?

He wouldn't.

She gave him an innocent look and fluttered her eyelashes at him in a joking manner. "Would I prank you?"





Okay what was with these two?

Finn gives her odd looks and now Sal is grumbling at her. Mia didn't get it at all. And they say girls are confusing well as far as she was concerned so were boys.

"Alright what is that supposed to mean Salander?" She asked in a somewhat serious tone and if she could pronounce his surname, she would have said that as well.

For some reason she was tempted to squash that pie into his face.




"Thought you might." Mia said with a knowing grin. She would be doing the same thing if Nik was here. Marie was lucky that her boyfriend was going to be at the same school as her.

She watched as Marie spoke to the two boys while taking another bite out of her cauldron cake. Still thinking about Sal's grumbling, Mia tugged on Marie's arm. "Can you hang around for a bit? I might need your help with something." She said, her eyes on Salander.


"Almost profitable.... from an almost brawl" he replied to the Slytherin girl and winked at her again "Too bad that old dude had to pull you away, that would've been some good entertainment at the party." he chuckled. "Speaking of which, that old man... he's your Dad? Jake called him Dad too. You two arent related to some degree are you?" Jake and Marie may be both blondes but they sure dont look anything alike. But then again the old dude looked nothing like them either.

He nodded at the Ravenclaw Prefect and replied "Alright then Finn...." There it is again, the feeling of familiarity "You know I couldnt shake the feeling that I've heard your name before, I just couldnt seem to place it...."


He suddenly stopped whatever he was doing when Mia used his full name. At least that was his full name as far as she knew. He looked at her soulful dark eyes and he could feel his face heating up. He just wanted to blurt out the jumbled mess that's been festering in his head since that trip to Antarctica. He turned to face her finally "Got to spend some time with Nik down at the South Pole... " he started nearly spitting out the Durmstranger's name "Real nice guy he is, really...." Arrogant! Conceited! Dastardly! Egotistaical! Self-Serving.....he had a word for every letter of the alphabet that was just waiting to burst out. Then he blinked. He realized he was shaking. He struggled to keep it all down, trying to draw measured breaths. Interesting how it was that a year ago he was in the exact same state of fury, only to be eased into calmness by Mia. Now it seemed her effect has reversed itself "..... he's a real piece of work." he said finally "You may want to know a bit more about how he is and what he does when you're not looking."

He backed off. He wanted to get out of there.... and do something insanely dangerous. Like climb onto the train roof.



SPOILER!!: this might be a clone now yeah XD

How could you prove something didn't exist? By proving the existence of facts that claimed otherwise. And there were no facts. "I...personally? I haven't seen them, and I've been around mistletoe, I mean, we all had, eventually, no?" because the Castle was always filled with that during Christmas time, and no, he didn't mean for mistletoe to the be the main issue here, but..., "I've never seen anything around mistletoe, seriously," unless boys and girls are Nargles gathered around mistletoe, but that was not the case, "Unless, they're like Thestrals, and that would explain why I can't see them," nor had he had any of belongings lost in the Common Room, perhaps it only happened to the ones staying up there on the Seventh Floor? So, Nargles don't like the grounds. And the Hufflepuff Common Room was by the Kitchens, therefore, no Nargles.

Pogrebins? "No, no, it says here that you can see them, though not as clearly as one could see an owl, for sure," sooooo, yeah, no Pogrebins. And she should think of less creepy creatures, by the way.

But, oh, she was probably thinking something was up, since his stance had changed and he was blocking her view of Salander. He wasn't falling for that. "I doubt it, Kurumi," but, really, was there a Nargle around?



Vashti had noticed too, about Salander, and in reality one always needed to worry whenever the Wizarding world started to talk about the Statute of Secrecy. Always. Worry. Yes. But Treyen didn't feel the need to worry about it. Unless Fletcher was involved, in which case Treyen would've already found out and would be fighting right by his side, or trying to get him out of whatever trouble he managed to get into.

He looked at her before glancing at the paper again. And now she was helping someone else?

See, no need to worry about the Statute, just worry about the girl who dropped the candy.

"Apparently they do, but they don't really exist, it's like...," a myth? a legend? No, Nargles weren't Chosens. "...something made up," yeah, clever, Lockhart boy. And he'd smile, but he feared that's all he could do when standing next to the bright Ravenclaw. "It's been proven already, there's nothing surrounding mistletoe," was it really proven, though? Treyen didn't think anyone actually took the time to research Nargles. They probably existed just because no one had taken interest in making sure they didn't.

He laughed softly, remembering the tennis shoes, "If they disappear, I'd blame someone in your Common Room instead of Nargles," or probably Peeves.



As he looked up he noticed a familiar boy standing close to them, and...picking up another copy of The Quibbler. Yeah, Treyen didn't know this paper was that popular nowadays. AND...Oh? Salander was frowning, while reading it! He certainly hoped Kurumi didn't catch this. Treyen wanted to hint Salander to knock it off, but he didn't know how to do it without gaining Kurumi's attention.

So, instead, he made Kurumi focus on the paper even more.

"Or, perhaps they are like Pogrebins and can blend with the environment really well?" Add another thing on her list of things to research.






Kurumi looked up to ask more questions about the existence or non-existence of Nargles when she saw Treyen standing rather close and blocking her peripheral vision. There was that shinny smile of his again...but this time it was a suspicious shinny smile. Tilting her head to the side, Kurumi tried to look past Treyen to see what he was trying to block. Was the trolley out of licorice wands?! Because that would be terrible. "What's that?" she asked pointing to something, really nothing, off to the side hoping to distract him long enough to see what was behind him. "It looks like a Nargle." Or not...

Vashti smiled a little as Kurumi seemed to recover from her tears. And she was right, a smile did suit Treyen a lot better than that panicked look he'd been wearing. She took the edition that Treyen handed her, shrugging at his suggestions so as not to interrupt his and Kurumi's conversation about nargles, then dug around in her pocket for those twelve sickles. She was probably not going to get any candy after paying for this, but that was okay. Going without anything in her stomach for a few more hours wouldn't kill her.

It was as she laid the coins on the trolley that she noticed Salander not too far away, also looking at the Quibbler and appearing a little unsettled. Well that wasn't good. Was it the same thing that had bothered Kurumi, the Statute of Secrecy? Vashti bit her lip, a little bit worried now. Maybe there really was something strange going on here. But what was it? What was it about the Statute that was upsetting people?




Vashti had little time to dwell upon these thoughts though when she suddenly saw a girl a year or two younger than her suddenly fall and lose the candy she must've just bought. Folding the Quibbler over so she could better carry it in one hand, she made her way over, getting down on one knee and extending her free hand to the girl.

"Need some help?" she asked with a gentle smile.

He flipped through a few more pages to see if there was anything else interesting. Words upon endless words on paper. He made the motion of returning it back to the Trolley lady but he got that look. What he couldnt even trade this off for a couple of jelly slugs?

He shifted around the trolley and made his way towards the others, walking directly behind Treyen-- who didnt seem to make any motions of turning to say hello. Or even acknowledge that he was around. What the hey? At least Vashti saw him. "Hey wazzup Vashti?" he nodded at the Ravenclaw girl, then shifted his eyes behind Treyen's head and back to her again Whats with him? he was trying to say silently.
