*PhoenixRising* · 07-16-2017, 01:22 PM

Skylar glanced up from her fiddling to see Stasya had taken to joining her by Baldvinsson's hut in planting a tree and smiled at the younger Gryffindor. She wasn't all too comfortable with Runes, or Herbology for that matter, but if she needed help, she would try. Just then, she stopped her fiddling when she heard a booming Headmistress' voice, for which she was grateful for the use of magic at that moment.

Okay, so time to carve the runes on their plain pine bracelets. That bindrune actually looked really cool and would make an awesome tattoo, except that it meant new beginnings and growth and fertility, all things that the fourteen year old did not really want to be thinking about just yet. Though in truth, she shouldn't even be thinking about tattoos since she wasn't even old enough for that yet either. And in all honesty, she really hadn't been thinking about them so it was weird that it crossed her mind.

Right, carving runes. "Intaglio Berkana," she cast, after removing the pine bracelet from her wrist. She guessed it was more precautionary, because last thing they needed was an accident to happen such as carving onto their wrists instead or maybe half skin, half bracelet carvings.

They noticed one girl in between the hut and the barn, but it was the older one that they were going to target. Since she was fiddling with her charms, it made easy work for them.

Quickly fluttering their wings, the dove toward her and started pulling at her hair.

"EHEHEHEHEHEH!"

(And she'd clumsily left him behind after stunning him. Ugh!)

Not wanting to repeat the same scenario, Kitty decided against shooting a spell from this distance. Instead she picked up her wand and strode over to Skylar and the Pixies. "Hey! Leave her alone!" she shouted, pointing her wand at the Pixies to distract them.

But before she had been able to cast the other two runes, her hair was being pulled and her hands flew up to swat away at whatever it was... Stasya had been the only one present, but why would the first year incessantly pull her hair? And sound like bees in her ears?

Abruptly standing up, her third-of-the-way carved bracelet falling to the ground, she ran around to get away from the annoying things when she heard Kitty shouting to 'leave her alone'. Ah, seriously!? "Why are you always trying to fight my battles for me?" Sky snapped at the Ravenclaw Prefect, as she ran off towards the beetle with Ava and Vivian, hoping it was enough movement that the pixies wouldn't be following her. She couldn't risk a freezing charm, because she could wind up freezing herself, instead, which would be dumb and pointless. And she hoped to goodness Kitty wouldn't either; last thing she needed was a repeat of her leaving a motionless student unattended like she'd done with Derf.
