"Tell me, how was the extra sweet experience?" she raised her 'brow at him, as her eyes playing a game.

Sam decided not to reply to her first comment, mostly, because he wasn't sure what he was referring to. The 'sweetness' or....his not being able to handle it? Sam quickly thought up an answer that hopefully wouldn't lead Ella on, or offend her. "Sweet...duh!" he said grinning quickly. "Not sour!" he said with a tone of sarcasm in his voice, repressing the urge to stick his tongue out at her.

After all, Rapunzel would probably stumble all over Lima's long name....with all those w's....

Oh...I think I just gave myself a nickname... Sam thought slightly bewildered by the fact. Sam raised his eyebrows in unison with Punzel after her introduction of 'Lima Bean' as 'McShifty'. "Maybe you're my McCousin then?" he asked chuckling. "McConroy...Sam here," he finished grinning. More pumpkin juice needed....

"huh? yeah" Ella nodded in agreement. "But you know there is a rumour that he has a...g..f.." she said and laughing, for no reason. Obviously she had nothing to worry.

Ella watched him as he was thinking deeply before talk to her. Well..it was quite understandable. She chuckled, she had no intention to confuse but his charmness brought her to that point. Obivously she had no complaints. She smiled as she brushed off her thoughts, "Thanks. Atleast it was not sour.." she laughed light heartedly.
"But beware of your tongue..dude!" she warned him, her mischievousness ruling her at the moment.

Pheonix noticed another person come and sit down at the Hufflepuff table. She seemed...sad. Pheonix slid along the bench until she was sat next to her. 'Hi, my name's Pheonix, can I join you?' she asked. It would be nice to have a friend who was the same age as Pheonix and was in Hufflepuff. 'So, are you a first year too?'

Jude noticed someone waving, and for a second he had the slightest hope it was Aly, but it was another girl. Mr.... Bouncy? He looked at her strangely and then looked around, not noticing anyone else responding to her call. Pointing at himself and mouthing "Me?" at her, he slowly started to make his way around the table towards her.

He realized about halfway there that he HAD been bouncing a little, to try and see over people's heads....

"Yes, you.." She said it bit louder to him. She was waiting for him to come near her, noticed that he was still bouncing. What was he looking for? When he finally reached her, she asked, "Looking for anyone? Tell me, I can see if I could help you.." she leaned in, studying the boy's features.

Hearing her name being mentioned and then being prodded my McBolical, Lima turned to the boy and waved. "Nice to meet you, Sam. So if you are now Pretzel's McCousin, then you are my McSamMcConroyMcCousin!" She started to laugh.

She chuckled then patted Ella on the back. "I'm sorry mate. But that's life. There are plenty of fish in the sea. And tons of male students. Hogwarts is an ocean, so just take out your net and go fishing." She snorted.

Charlotte looked up toward the Staff Table, the Professors were all talking together, as were most of the other houses. However the speech didn't seem to have happened yet- and there still wasn't food out on the tables. Her stomach growled discontentedly, and rather loudly. She pressed a hand to it- trying to muffle the noise- then glanced around surreptitiously hoping no one had heard it.

Kairi spotted Phoenix on the Hufflepuff table so she decided to go and say hello. "Mind if i join you?" she asked, tapping her on the shoulder.

Scanning down the many faces on eitherside of the table, Savannah scooted her plate and goblet back a little, folding her arms infront of her on the edge of the table. The feast just seemed to get louder and louder, not that she minded so much as long as there wasn't any problems.. "I'm good, too" She replied, breaking out of her slight daze as Jordan spoke. "We're back in Hogwarts?" Savannah offered up as a suggestion of something new going on. That was new, right? Eitherway, that was most important.
While Savannah missed her own first year days, in a way seeing others first year, experiencing things others had for atleast a year already if not more and being in awe of everything about the castle always brought a smile to her face. "Yes, I know what a movie is" She assured, explaining "my dad is a muggle." She had seen movies before, working the little box thing that made it appear on the TV was a whole nother complicated story.

Aw, the poor girl. Her face colored so brightly she was sure she was embarrassed about the wand dropping or from hitting her head on the table, or both. She smiled softly, saying "Don't worry, one of you're house Prefects is a big klutz as well." refuring to herself. Speaking of which, she still hadn't met the new prefect that had replaced Curtis.

"They are. There was Godric Gryffindor, Helga Hufflepuff, Rowena Ravenclaw and Salazar Slytherin" If there was one thing Savannah was good for, it was knowing her history. Though Lexi constantly tried bugging or teasing her about it, even the Gryffindor couldn't deny it. "I'm not sure if about the schools name," She chuckled at the idea, an image of a pair of the founders dueling popped into her mind. "That's a good question. Maybe they had. Or, maybe the name meant something to the four of them."

Jude nodded and found a seat next to her. "Yeah, I was but, but I don't think she's here. I'll find her later," he said shrugging. "It's troublesome, me being short like this, I look a fool when I'm searching for a friend..." he commented, smiling.

In a quick little frenzy of panic, he wiped his hand off on his robes of anything that might be on it and extended it to her. He spoke hurriedly, his thick Liverpool accent really shining through in his rush, "Gosh, where are my manners? Name's Maxwell, Jude Maxwell, it's a pleasure to meet you," he said, hoping she didn't think ill of him for being so rude just then.

She just nodded at him and said, "exactly. So, what we need to do is to charm the textbooks that we are using to 'study'" she made quotation marks in the air, "so that we have notebooks inside them, but no one is non the wiser. That way we can keep all of our plans extra hidden. 'cause no one will be reading those books, not even people taking O.W.Ls or N.E.W.Ts this Term." Now she knew that this was true; she read every textbook for her O.W.Ls last Term besides HoM. That was just the subject you didn't care about...

She patted him on the shoulder again and said, "I'm sure that there are going to be things that yo can teach us too soon. I'm sure that once you start you will come up with some excellent plots of your own in no time."

"Oh...so your mom is a witch and your dad isn't? How did your father find out about your mom? Both my parents are um...muggles? Muggles...is that what you call them?" Emalyn asked.

"Prefects? Who's my house prefect?" Emalyn was unaware that there were Prefects and Head boy and girls in Hogwarts. "Yeah I know...I'm a total klutz."

"Yeah...maybe...so do all of the young witches and wizards go here to learn? Or are some of them like...homeschooled that are far away by their parents? How many wizards and witches are there in the world? There can't be too many, otherwise people would be more informed about them now, wouldn't they? I have a lot of questions." Emalyn giggled and pushed some of her long blonde hair out of her face. She knew that she ought to have worn her hair in a pony tail than letting it be down.

Miles grinned, they were only talking about it, and it made him feel so excited ... and a little giddy. Pah. He nodded after every sentence that Lima said, agreeing with anything that she or Macho Maddox said, after all, they were the masters. "Plus, I should be studying my OWLS anyway, so people wouldn't think anythig of it. Just two Hufflepuff's and a Slytherin studying boring, but essential stuff in the Library." He smiled and laughed.

"That would be great. I could really be the snakey one this term." He smirked. His olde friend's were here, the school was one again, and he had made two sneakeh friends. Excellent.

Rather nervous and looking all over the place, a golden puppy was searching for something or more pricely someone. Her little tummy was growling but at the same time she wanted attention and loads of it. Not really paying attention to wherever she was running, she knock a chair where a student (Vannah) was sitten. It took the puppy just few second to recover herself and the first thing she decided to attack was the girl's shoes. In her little mind, they were responsible for her little accident.

Mina could already tell that the starting feast would not be her favourite experience about the Hogwarts school year as she absently played with a strand of her hair, bored out of her wits. In her mind, she was wishing it would end very soon, so she could go to her dorm and do . . . something that didn't involve sitting and doing almost nothing.

With a sigh, she glanced around her at the faces of older students, before scanning the hall to see if she could spot anyone she knew. Cully or Star would do, but it seemed they'd either skipped out or she just couldn't spot them over the heads of the other students.

Once again cursing her height, she lowered herself back into her seat (she hadn't realised she'd risen from it whilst searching) and leant her elbows on the table, chin in her hands. Boredom was not her favourite emotion in life.

Curt nodded to Vannah as there was no sign of Dusty at all, and sighed at her explanation. "Ah I see." he said with a smile, digging in to his food. He didn't exactly have a snack on the Express so his stomach was basically eating itself now.

Out of the side of his eye, Curt saw an animal scamper from the left and run right under to where Vannah was. Leaning up in his seat a little bit, he tried to catch a glimse of what it was. Finally realizing it was a dog, Curt smiled. "Ah, looks like someone's dog is loose." he said with a laugh, sitting back down because he didn't want to walk around the whole entire Hufflepuff table to go pet it. "I wonder whose it is." Curt said, looking around the Great Hall to see if anyone was searching for a lost pet.

The whole pet subject reminded Curt of something else, something he had been meaning to say to Vannah. The little black kitten that he and his sister had rescued in Godric's Hollow was snug in the common room, and he was sure that Vannah would love her. "Oh, and just wait until we get back into the common room. There someone that wants to meet you." he said with a wry smile, taking a sip from his pumpkin juice.

"Yes pink, what the heck else!??" Fallon exclaimed. "I might throw in a little green here and there for you, but don't expect too much..."

Fallon giggled. "You so totally are scared of flying! Don't worry. I'll help you and you won't be scared anymore. And we're going to start off high, you can't fly on the ground!"

She nodded. "You may know some of them, I'm not sure. I met a boy named Cale and a girl named Lola. They seemed cool."

She nodded again. "A party for two, just me and you. We practically have our own little parties already anyways..."

Fallon giggled again. "Of course you matter! You're my best friend and I love you. I don't know what I would do without you!"

"You can play with my hair whenever you want to," Fallon said.

She giggled yet again. "Yeah, it would be cool to be a ninja. Super hero by day, ninja by night. So awesome."

"Very good guess," Savannah praised, not recalling mentioning her mother was indeed, a witch. "My dad has two muggleborn sisters; they were friend's of my mum's when they had attended Hogwarts." She said, as to how her parents had met, that was the answer. "Yes, muggles. It's what wizards call non-magical people. So your muggleborn, that's quite interesting to hear about!" Ontop of that, Emalyn seemed to have atleast some knowledge of the school, and wizards in general. Savannah had it in her head she must have read up before her first year, she admired that.

"Theres two. A girl and boy, for each house. I'm your female house Prefect, but I'm afraid I can't tell you whom the other is.. I haven't found out myself, yet" Savannah shrugged, trying to ignore that annoying feeling of curiousity trying to take over. She would find out later anyways, and she was patient.. most of the time. "It happens, nothing to feel silly over!"

Savannah grinned, not only did Ema have multiple questions but ideas to go with most of them; She was having fun discussing things with her, "Not every witch and wizard does, there's many other wizarding schools around the world" She began, nodding in agreement as if to non-verbally say she was correct. "Some kids are homeschooled, it works about the same as muggle kids schooling, it's just different in the way of night and day, light and dark; we learn magic and such that will help us in our world, and they learn things that help them in theirs"

"I would imagine there's probably an equal amount of both magical and non-magical people all around the world. I'm glad you mentioned that. We're not widely known of because we're careful of keeping ourselves hidden amongst them, I suppose you could say. We have laws and things about no magic around muggles, and say if some naughty teenage wizards were to try playing a practical joke on a muggle that involves any sorts of magic, the ministry of magic has a department that takes care of that." Savannah finished in the simplest way she could think of to explain, hoping that she hadn't confused Ema for the second time tonight. Giggling at her enthusiasm, she said "Well, if I haven't managed to make your head hurt yet feel free to ask me whatever you want and I'll try to clear them up for you,"
A little too preoccupied with talking and listening to her housemates, Savannah honestly hadn't noticed the dog wonder over till Curt mentioned it. When it knocked into her before that she had thought it was Tiger as usual, but as she felt something pounce on her feet again she was sure it was heavier than the dinky dwarf tabby weighed. Her eyes grew slightly, leaning away from the table and back to see who was attacking her shoes while her boyfriend looked for a possible owner; since Curt didn't seem to recognize it she knew already it wasn't TK. "Ariel" She breathed a sigh of relief. Not that she had been scared of it, there was no chances there. Savannah didn't want there to be a lost pet at all, that would be awful for the animal and owner alike.

Attempting to move her legs out of the way, the sixth year straightened up long enough to grab a roll and tear a piece off. "It's Frederic's dog, Lexi got her as a present for him last year" Savannah said in a slightly hushed voice, trying not to make the dog playing with her feet obvious. She frowned, shifting in her seat to look at the pup. With her hand under the table (and her other holding onto the edge of the table so she wouldn't slip under herself) she held out a piece of bread, trying to draw the pup's attention towards her. "Ariel, what are you doing over here you silly girl?" She murmured, not caring one bit the dog couldn't talk back; Savannah didn't doubt animals intelligence in understanding what humans said. "Your owner is going to have a fit you came to me of all people" Oh boy. Where was Alexis? Maybe she could return the dog to her fellow Gryffindor.. maybe it would have been better if it was a lost dog after all.

"Tiger, cool it" She warned, eying the grumpy expression on the felines face. He was a little too territorial of this table. Now that she had decided to keep an eye on the pup and return her after the feast if she didn't see Frederic sooner, Savannah situated herself properly on the bench again. Breaking off another piece of bread to offer Ariel from under the table, which she tried doing casually, Savannah's eyebrows raised, a curious look washing over her face. "Now I want to go to the common room even more than I had before," She admitted, studying the look on Curt's face for any possible hint as to who or what it could be. "Your not going to tell me till we get there, are you?"

When she heard her name her little face went up to see who was calling her. A lite bark came out of her mouth and she rolled on her back to noticed that she heard it. Even thought she had no clue what the girl wanted, she only want some more attention and with that said, she jumped back on the girl shoe lace and bite them.

As she felt another animal near her, a growl came very fast. This was her new playground and she was only there to have fun. For few minutes she was still on the lace trying to find a way to have them for herself but it soon was getting boring and her little tummy was now growling, jumping on the boy next to the girl (Curt), she put her little head on the table and was now lurking toward the plate near him.

She nodded. "So you're a 5th Year? That's perfect!" She thought for a moment then said, "How about... we're your new History of Magic tutors and we have to schedule a meeting time for a few times a week? You need to really get better at that class." She winked. And that plan would work too, as both her and Mads were good students. "How does that sound?" she asked the boys in general.

She smirked. "Your sweet nature is a gold mine in the pranking business." She was so happy to have a new kid to follow after her.

Curt watched on has Savannah handled the dog, and smiled as she mentioned that it was Frederic’s. He had never really spoken with him, or been around him at all. Seemed like a quiet kid, except for when he was Alexis, but then again, who could be quiet around Alexis anyways? “Ariel eh? That’s a nice name.” he said, giving Vannah a small grin as he craned his neck to get a better view of the pup.

Then Tiger came up, defensive as he usually was. Curt stopped at that thought, as he thought of the little cat that was in the common room as they spoke. Tiger might be a little bossy, but Curt figured that Naya would have enough pep and personality to hold her own against the larger feline. “Tiger always looking for us.” He said, patting the little guy on the head. Laughing as Savannah looked a little more excited that she had, Curt nodded. “Oh no way, I’m making you suffer.” He said jokingly with a wink. “But I can’t wait to get back to the common room either, I miss that place. Cooper’s common room was hideous until we did a little redecorating.” He said with a smile, remembering when their head of house helped the ‘fix things up.’

Curt’s eyes perked up as he felt something hop into his lap and smiled as he saw the little pup staring up at him. “Hello Ariel.” He said, grabbing some of the meat on his plate, offering her a small portion. “You hungry?” he asked with a grin, talking to the dog like it was a person. The rest of the gourmet meal was sitting on his plate and the rest of the table, hopefully the canine was fine with the small offering or there might be a problem.

MJ watched Misty with intense eyes and she smiled. Misty was falling asleep on the bench and MJ scoped her up into her arms and left her to sleep in her lap. "I love you little one." she whispered to the panda.

MJ's thoughts went back to the night she had found Misty. She had been looking around for the first time at the manor, when she let go of Hideki's hand and she got lost. Now that she thought about it, she was glad that she had let go off him. She explored the manor and found a small opening were only she could fit, and sadly enough, she was still the only one in the manor who could fit into the whole.

She walked down the a dark spiral latter, that headed down the manor, now that she knew the schematics of the house she knew there were levels to the house. There were six levels. The manor on the surface was the sixth. Apparently according to the old records her great great grandmother had been a phobic of zombies, bomb and anything else that would destroy the human race, including wizards and witched and every living thing, except cockroaches. They seemed to be the only thing that would survive anything.

MJ had gone down to the last level and she had been terrified when she had found a lonely stuffed panda who seemed to be in perfect condition. She had picked her up and saw that there was a collar on her neck.

She remembered the words very clearly from that day.

Quote:

Misty is her name, and mayhem is her game

If you found her, it is simply because you need her as she needs you to be alive.

A person with a clear mind, an innocent heart and a lot to give to life is what you are, a pure soul who will be special to those she meets, remember when you no longer need her and want her she won't be there

Only the females can bring her to life

So bring her to life

scelto uno(Chosen one)

Blessed Be

MJ still wondered why she had been the one to find her when she was clearly not the one they had described. She shook away the thoughts and waited patiently for the fest to be over so she could put the panda to bed.

Suddenly a thought went through her mind.

once you no longer need her but want you she will be gone?

MJ's eyes widened she didn't want to say goodbye to Misty, she was the only one she had left that she had never thought to say good bye

Savannah gasped jokingly, dropping the bread pieces onto her plate she had abandoned just a little bit before the pup had found her way over. Wiping her hands absent-mindedly on her napkin, Savannah pouted, saying "Suffer? That's not nice!" in her most innocent child-like tone, poking her tongue out with arms crossed, she couldn't keep a smile from forming on her lips.

"Aww!" Savannah cooed, seeing Ariel had climbed onto Curt's lap. Smart pup. Tiger meowed in response to being patted, and stealthly paced further down the table to check his surroundings. "Same thing at Belle's, even after we changed a thing or two it still didn't feel like our common room" Not to mention they had to change it twice, the first time being yelled at by a house elf. Vannah shook her head at the thought, "It'll be nice to be in the lounge again," very, very nice. No lavendar, no flowers, no frills. Thank Helga Hufflepuff herself for that.

Sniffing the food that was presented to her, she didn't took more than few second to licked it entirely but unfortunately it wasn't enough for her. She wanted more and she wasn't going to wait to get it. So before anyone could react, the puppy jump on the table and went straight to Curt's plat and put a paw on it. Grabbing a piece of meat, Ariel put it on the table and started chew on it. But as she was trying to turn to piece over and over again to make it easier, she knock over a pumpkin juice glass making a mess.

Ella put a hand on his shoulder, smiled as he spoke hurriedly. "Dont worry, we had the same problem when we were young, you're not the exception..." she said, stretched her hand out to shake his little warm hand. "Nice to meet you Jude," she added in clear jovial manner, "But I'd like to call you Mr. Bouncy, Can I?" she laughed gently without teasing him much. Didnt know that how he was going to take her casual talks. But atleast he appeared tobe happy to talk with girls unlike the two who she met earlier.

"So, If i'm not very much mistaken, You should be in first year, right?" she raised her eyebrow, inquiring him.

Ella laughed as she threw her head back. Oh..Lima! She was like air, very easy to breathe. She held her hands up in , said, "I'm surrenderd. I guess I need your help in that matter in future.." she was laughing in between the words.
