| Term 13: Aug - Oct 2006 Term Thirteen: Mysterious Occurances (Sept. 2059 - June 2060) |

07-03-2006, 10:52 PM
| | Lainey's Office The walls were back to their blue state. Even the ceiling had somehow got painted blue. It was fabulous to Lainey and she had a certain Slytherins or two to thank for it. Her office was now re-decorated with all her keepsakes that Borr had taken from her. Yet another Slytherin had made sure to keep her things safe until her return. Assorted chocolates could be found in almost any area of Lainey's office, all courtesy of Professor McAiken. The only thing missing this term was Lainey's elf, Hubert. He had needed a break and even though he had fought against it, Lainey ordered him to take a vacation.
Things had changed over the summer though. After an encounter with an old ... shall we say acquaitance ... Lainey had gone from quirky to paranoid. The event in Hogsmeade had haunted her for the whole of summer and she was still trying shake the feeling that she was being watched.
Seated in her high backed chair, Professor Lainey works on repairing an old History book. She looks up as you enter and clearly is not sure if she trusts you. "Hi. What can I do for you?" |

| Samea rolled into the office, ignoring the students gathered. She put her hand to her mouth, making an odd trumpeting noise. "The Headmistress formally requests your presence at a secret staff meeting later today. And when I say requests, I mean she demands you come. Wear shoes." |

Then she pushed it to the back of her mind as she looked at the Professor again. "Um, I just wanted to introduce myself before class, Professor," she said, her dark, navy bluish eyes wandering over the office as she took in everything. "I'm really looking forward to attending History of Magic, can't wait for class to start," she added enthusiastically. |

Hogwarts RPG Name: Zahra Kettleburn Seventh Year | Inside Kitty | HIT ENTER | UNO Queen Lainey laughed at Tia. "Well it is definitely a pleasure to meet you and I'm really looking forward to seeing you in class." Lainey was just about to pet the girl on the head when Samea let herself into her office.
"The secret staff meeting is no longer much of a secret now, is it?" She asked, raising both eyebrows. "You heard her those students. Everyone out, I have a meeting to get to."
Lainey ushered the rest of them out, and hurried down the hall. She wanted to be first in so she could get a good seat in the back. |

Tia smiled again - She really was beginning to like Professor Lainey. Almost as much as Professor Mao-Macdougal. Yeah, right - As if that was possible. As the Professor told everyone to leave, she hastily said Goodbye. "It was really nice talking to you, Professor," she said politely before turning around and backing out of the office with everyone else who was leaving, deciding to go back to her common room. |

Shane was quiet the entire time, and wondered whether anyone had even noticed he was there. He took a peppermint when they got to him, but didn't put it in his mouth just yet.

| be curious, not judgmental Julia approached Lainey's office with Jamie following close behind. She looked at Jamie and took a deep breath. "What am I supposed to say again?" she asked him, then realized he wouldn't really know. "Oh nevermind." She sighed and cautiously opened the door to the office, then walked inside.
"Professor Lainey?" Julia looked around and a frown formed on her face. She turned around and looked at Jamie. "The office is empty... Professor Lainey isn't here. Where else could she be? She's always here." Julia walked out of the office and a thoughtful look took over her face as she tried to think of somewhere else to look. "Do you have any ideas, Jamie?"

"D'you think she'd mind? It sounds like she really likes you an' all. So maybe if we just wait and you tell her how important it is?" He figured it was important, as stressed and serious this girl seemed. "Cos if that... thing is as important as you say, she probly won't mind, right?" He looked around the office, this being his first time in here ever. "She can't be away too long can she?" |

| be curious, not judgmental Julia paused for a moment and shrugged. "Hmm, I guess she wouldn't mind if we waited inside for her. And like you said, she should be back soon from wherever she went." She sat down in a chair and pulled one up for Jamie.
She dug through her robe pockets and pulled out some carrots. "Here, you can have some of these while we wait." Julia handed him a few of the carrots, then began munching on her own while she watched the door carefully, waiting nervously for Lainey to arrive.

Hogwarts RPG Name: Zahra Kettleburn Seventh Year | Inside Kitty | HIT ENTER | UNO Queen After an overly fun first class, Lainey returned to her office to drop off her sword and maybe grab some tea before dinner. She found two of her students waiting for her just inside, already having a snack. Lainey grabbed a carrot and popped it into her mouth as she passed by. "What brings you two here?" she asked, plopping down behind her desk. "Not in trouble are we..?" |

Hogwarts RPG Name: Cambri Mikaila Hale Fourth Year | Uncertain what she would say, Rosalie approached the office of Professor Lainey. Two Ravenclaw students were already waiting, so she positiond herself on the floor a safe distance from them. She didn't wish to be sucked in at the same time as the rest of the world, she wanted a private audience with the History of Magic Profssor. She didn't feel what she had to talk about was a public matter. Which made her wonder why she knew about it.

| be curious, not judgmental Julia immediately stood up as Lainey entered. "Wha-? Trouble? Oh, of course not," she replied, grinning slightly as she ate the carrot. "I just... have something important to discuss with you." She shot a nervous glance at Jamie as she tried to think of how to explain this to their HoH. Just say something, Julia.
"That one poltergeist... Samea, is it? Well, she said... that you won't be with us much longer," Julia said finally, wondering if they should discuss this somewhere else. She bit her lower lip nervously as she waited for a reaction from her favorite professor.

Hogwarts RPG Name: Zahra Kettleburn Seventh Year | Inside Kitty | HIT ENTER | UNO Queen Lainey blinked a few times. She'd expected almost anything to come from Julia's mouth. Anything from, "I blew up the common room" to " I clogged the toilet with carrots." She hadn't expected those words though. It was a tad unnerving, but she didn't show it. "Did she say where I was going? I do hope she knows something I don't, like I've won a trip to the beach." |

| be curious, not judgmental Julia took a deep breath and shook her head, not even cracking a slight smile at what Lainey said. "Not exactly. I think that she meant... that you're going to d-..." No. She wasn't going to say it. Lainey would probably know what she was going to say. "Samea also said that what has been done and soon be undone," she receited with her eyes closed, picturing the situation in her mind.

Hogwarts RPG Name: November {Noe} Franze First Year | Brain Twin | MASTAH ASHURRII | Reisdent PokeNerd | Digifangirl Jamie stopped chewing on the carrot he'd had in his mouth and swallowed quickly. "She... has a vote going," he said. "On the Third Floor Corridor. Something about a book... but I don't know what it is or anything, The Book of Mysteria?" He shook his head with slight confusion, his curls bouncing this way and that. He glanced up to the Professor, trying to gague her reaction. He didn't know her well, but by the look on her face after Julia had announced what Samea said, she didn't seem to be too shocked, but not too comfortable, either. |

Hogwarts RPG Name: Zahra Kettleburn Seventh Year | Inside Kitty | HIT ENTER | UNO Queen Lainey swallowed loudly. "I don't want either of you worrying about me or anything Samea says," Lainey plainly stated. "She is just a prankster, much like you, and probably just wanted to frighten you a little. I'm here. I don't plan on going anywhere." Lainey smiled, though only for a second. "And even if I did go somewhere, you'd still be safe and happy at school. I promise you that."
Lainey stood up, suddenly feeling the urge to speak to Rae. They hadn't spoke much at all since that staff meeting. "I have a meeting with Rae now. So, you two, and you as well Rosalie, "Lainey added after seeing the girl at the door, "are welcome to stay until I return." Lainey left and went to Rae's office. |

| be curious, not judgmental Julia stared hard at Lainey for a moment, her face expressionless. I really hope she's taking this seriously. She frowned as she left, then looked at Jamie. "I think we should go find Kay. This office is nice and all, but I think we have other things to do instead of wait in here for who knows how long." She sighed and glanced down at the lump in her pocket. She bit her lower lip and knew what she had to do.
Julia silently walked over to Professor Lainey's desk and removed a small box containing Lainey's broken Auror badge from her robe pocket. She ran her finger along the blue ribbon for a moment, then gently rested it on the middle of the desk so Lainey would see it when she returned. "Let's go, I guess," Julia said as she turned back to Jamie, nodded, and walked out the door.

Hogwarts RPG Name: Cambri Mikaila Hale Fourth Year | When Lainey left before Rosalie had a chance to speak with her, Rosalie sighed. When the History of Magic professor was out of sight, she reached into her pocket, and pulled out an old piece of parchment. Quote:

Professor Plum, Colonel Mustard and Miss Scarlett. She re-read the portion about Professor Lainey, and sighed. Her mind raced with the things she had heard Samea say. What she had seen in Hogsmeade. Clutching the letter tightly, she slumped once more against the wall, waiting for Lainey to return.

Hogwarts RPG Name: Elijah Wilde Graduated | Farmer Carter | | Ama's Secret "I can't believe you are doing this Lee. Can't believe it. You stupid.." Lee stopped once he realised someone else was outside the office. Couldn't be having others thinking he talked to himself now could we?
Lee had unfortunatley mis-wrote the due date for his homework assignment and was late with it - which in turn forces him to come and pay a visit to Lainey. Lee leaned against a wall assuming the Slytherin had already knocked. How he hated himself right now.

One of the school owls flew into the History of Magic professor's office and landed on her desk. It patiently held out it's foot, waiting for the letter to be detached. Quote:

I am not certain I understand what sort of deal you are trying to make with me. My interest is in the Book in general, though I suppose I could settle for something a little less depending upon what payment you want in return.
As to your question, I have my thoughts but would prefer to keep them to myself until such a time as I see fit to reveal them. Perhaps you would like to discuss things a bit further in person.

Hogwarts RPG Name: Zahra Kettleburn Seventh Year | Inside Kitty | HIT ENTER | UNO Queen Lainey stopped by the kitchens to get herself some comfort food, for once forgetting that all the house elves were evil and had something against her. She came back to her office bearing sweets galore and a whole pot of coffee. "Oh, well aren't you two in luck," she greeted Lee and Rosalie who waited just outside her office. "Well, don't sit there all day, let's move inside. These cinamon rolls are going to get cold." Lainey pushed the door open for them. She noticed an owl awaiting her. Surely not....
As she approached her desk, she realized. It was from him.
Lainey took the letter quickly and shooed the owl away. She hadn't noticed her Auror badge's return yet, and just scooted everything, including the letter off her desk and into a basket. A little shaken, but holding it together well, Lainey made them a spread of sweets and coffee. "Help yourselves. And what did you both need?" |

Hogwarts RPG Name: Elijah Wilde Graduated | Farmer Carter | | Ama's Secret Lainey was acting strangely nice to him. Why? - she is obviously drunk, Lee thought. When he entered the office with the Slytherin, Lee noticed the piece of parchment in their hands and couldn't help but smirk.
Lee let the Slytherin go in front of him to attend to her needs first. He didn't want company in case Lainey and Lee started throwing each other off of Lainey's blue walls.

Shane Prince decided to have the mint that had been handed to him earlier, and it helped him to remember why he wanted to speak to the HoM Professor. He knocked on the door and waited, thinking, why is Merlin the standard of wizardry and not Morgana, or Gandalf, or even Saruman?.

She was shaking when she began to speak.

She was giving a ravenclaw Prefect a hard time, and I was a bit hesitant to ask her what she meat...furthermore....I recieved this letter..."

Hogwarts RPG Name: Zahra Kettleburn Seventh Year | Inside Kitty | HIT ENTER | UNO Queen Lainey sighed and took the parchment from Rosalie. Her hands were trembling by the time she got to the end of it. She tried to hide how it really made her feel by laughing it off and sliding it back to the girl. "Well, that's me. Crazy as a loon. And I'll tell you like I told the two that were in here just before you - Samea is just trying to get a rise out of you. I'm fine, good health, no plans of leaving." She tried to smile, but the weight of this whole situation was really starting to affect her.
Her and Rae were fighting, she'd betrayed her only friend in the world to Lord Voldemortist of all people, everyone thought she was crazy including her students, and she had a letter from Lord Voldemortist on her desk.
She turned her back to them both for a moment and took a long, shuddering deep breath. "Is that all you wanted, hun?" |
