The shutters have been drawn on the windows of the Defense Against the Dark Arts classroom, leaving the room in partial darkness. As you enter, your footfalls click against the cold stone floor and echo against the cavernous ceiling. There is a noticeable chill to the room. The sparse lighting is dim; slivers of dreary light from the closed shutters interrupt the darkness and cast undefinable, unnerving shapes against the walls. A few flickering, melting candles hang by ornate wall sconces, their light dancing almost ritually against the wall, as if being lightly blown by an absent wind. The faint, eerie whine of a floorboard creaking peals out from somewhere near the front of the room. (is it just a floorboard? are you sure?) Grotesque photographs hang on the walls of the classroom, depicting images of malformed men and women suffering the effects of cruel, brutal curses. They writhe helplessly in pain, shrieking silently. Two rows of mahogany desks and benches line the walls, leaving a long, wide aisle empty for students and professor alike to walk through.

Several large wardrobes sit at the head of the class, the classroom’s regular dusty chalkboard moved to the side. Soft thumps and bumps echo about the room from no known source, often sounding like they are coming from above you—or right behind you. A chest sits at the top of the stairs to the professor’s office, rattling occasionally.

The professor is not yet apparent in the room. There is a note on the classroom board:

Please come in and take a seat at one of the desks... You may wish to avoid the darker corners, and instead choose to sit in the dead center of the room. After all... You never know what might be lurking in the shadows.

-- Prof. Kazimeriz

ooc: Please go ahead and RP yourself coming into the room; have fun with it, for you might've noticed it is a tad spookier in here than usual. I'll start the class in a little while and it will run for 2-3 days so every time zone can play. Thanks, Xana~

Listening closely to what Ms. Ravenclaw was saying "Ok, I think I understand. Are we supposed to figure out who this person is, and where the stones are?"

**Peeves** · 03-19-2009, 04:44 AM

Games? GAMES?! GAMES!!!!

Oh, Peeves LOVED games! Yes he did, yes he did. The mere mention of the word practically sent Peeves into a tizzy.

From a dark corner, he shouted in a thundering tone, and as loudly as he could, "LET'S PLAY A GAME!"

Peevsie's voice boomed over the chatter in the room as he zoomed into the room riding Four-Eyes, the ghostly pink thestral Professor Bontecou had so kindly conjured for the master of mischief.

"This game," he said, shining a candle in front of his face, "Is called aurors and Voldypoos. I'll be the auror. You're all..." And just as he screeched the last word, he began racing around the room and pelting the students with water balloons. "VOLDYPOO!"

SPLASH. SPLASH. SPLASH.

Cedric laughed"hahahah..that's funny..oops.I'm laughing too much"

Lockhartian · 03-19-2009, 04:46 AM

Stones? Pfft. Stones were not in Quidditch. But curiosity was on her side, she wondered what the ghost could be talking about. Vaults, protective stones? Yes, that sounded like a riddle, and she was not the one for riddles.

But there were a bunch of Ravvies in the classroom, right? They were supposed to be good at those. If only she could think beyond practices and plays.

This was silly, where was Professor Kazimeriz? Why were they sitting in such a cold place? Why was the light not high enough? What will they be doing today? So many question, no one to answer them...

Tommehbell · 03-19-2009, 04:47 AM

Paris had gotten about 3 hours worth of sleep in between Quidditch practice, chasing her Imp around the grounds and doing homework. But like the diva she was she looked fabulous in her skinny jeans, silver tunic and green vest wtih her purple baby doll flats. She walked into classroom and stopped dead in the doorway. What was he playing at with this set-up.

She cautiously walked in and sat down in a group of students.

She squeeed and ducked for cover as Peeve zoomed into the room.

This was going to be crazy when the lesson started.

Tobi didn't think didn't pause, didn't hesitate a moment. He pointed his wand up in the air and bellowed. "Protego!" A large shield erupted over his head like an umbrella.

For all of Kazimeriz craziness, Tobi would have to bake him a pie for teaching him how to cast that one.

Honestly couldn't Peeves keep out of the Dungeons just for a little while?

"errr..that's not funny peeves,you poltergeist..if you keep doing that I will report you to the bloody baron"Cedric sighed with a nasty smile

03-19-2009, 04:49 AM

Suddenly hit with a lot of water. Liz jumps up. "What the..." and suddenly sees Peeves.

"Ok, that doesn't make any sense." she starts to say to him, but realizes that was his point.

atmor · 03-19-2009, 04:51 AM

Jai groaned when peeves entered and shrieked as the first balloon struck her. "What! Are! You! Doing!" she grumbled. reaching for her wnd that had fell on the ground infront of her. "Protego." she said with a pout in her face, the water caused her hair to sag and she hated being wet in her clothes. She watched as the water balloons bounced off her shield and she made a face "The bloody baron would love to hear about this. Peeves pelting Slytherin students with water balloons. He'll be furious. In fact I saw him in the dungeons just before I got here and he was gumbling about no wanting any problems today. he wont take this news lightly."

There was a high pitched scream and it was coming from Miranda. Who in the name of MErlin's greyening toenail would pop up like that and scare them???

Sure, Miranda had done that with a few prefects and her camera...But this was different and scarier!
Miranda hurried to hide under the desk, fumbling with her wand. Did she even know any spells to keep her dry from the balloons??

Her arm poked from under her hiding place and she was aiming it at Peeves. What to do, what to do... "Stop it you little...you crazy...argh!"

"How about we be the Aurors and he's the Voldy-whatever?" Tobi suggested. "There are more of us."

His shield failed and he hastened to put it up again.

"Do you want us to work it out on our own, or discuss it with each other?" he asked the clever ghost.

Tobi figured many brains were better than one, but if it was a game, maybe he should try and work it out himself.

"Working together is wise, but do you not play with stones?" she replied.

The Grey Lady floated upwards so that she could look the pesky poltergeist in the face. "Peeves! How dare you create chaos in this educational room! Professor Kazimeriz will not be pleased."

Angie · 03-19-2009, 04:54 AM

Reasons why Willow Kovac was having a very bad day:

-She had to enter the incredibly scary Defense Against The Dark Arts Classroom
-Pretty face -but STUPID GIANT- Denton had sat on her
-The same Giant had basically called her a chair
-Peeves had just thrown a water ballon at her. Needless to say, she was wet.

"Come ON!" Started the girl, standing up quickly. "Who are you? Moaning Myrtle?"

03-19-2009, 04:55 AM

Looking at Ms. Ravenclaw confused, all of a sudden it hit her, as another water burst hit her, too. Totally drenched now, Liz leaps to her feet. "I got it!"

With a huge smile on her face, she asks "Am I aloud to say who it is?"

CrazyLoonyLuna · 03-19-2009, 04:56 AM

Water balloons. O good grief. Now how was she supposed to concentrate? But a smile could not help but ecape from mandys lips as she saw many students get showered with water balloons. Herself included. But then her book got wet. Never wet a book worms book... She let out a snarl and looked up at Peeves. Trying to decide what to do about hium.

*PhoenixRising* · 03-19-2009, 04:57 AM

Somewhere in the midst of staring at the Claw Captain, Dominic heard bits of misty comments from the ghost that was in the room. Stones talk about entertainment and protective and... vaults? What was this; a riddle? Closing his eyes tightly, he tried to comprehend the pieces he had caught but couldn't. Perhaps his mind was just not witty enough for such nonsense.

And Willow was angry at him, which made things worse. Though seeing her angry only made the burning desire in the pit of his stomach grow. It was like a monster waiting to pounce, even the fact that she was offended deeply at him didn't matter. And thus she walked away from him, with him staring blankly at her black curtain of silky keratin hanging from her perfectly angelic face. With him opened mouth and not paying any attention at all. Except that she had walked away from him.

Until . . .

SMACK!!

A water balloon hit him square in the face, causing the fifth year to snap dazzlingly from his little reverie. Shaking his head of short brown hair as water sprinkled nearby, he sighed and slipped into the nearest desk, making sure it was empty first this time. Ugh.

TwilightHodges · 03-19-2009, 04:58 AM

Twilight entered the classroom and had to admire the work of her professor. She wasn't creep ed out by the dimmed room after all grandfather's residence had alot of places with no electric so this was normal.
She read the note and then looked around. She noticed the Grey Lady and started over to her second favorite ghost in the house, when she heard Peeves cackle and heard the swoosh of water balloons.
She quietly took out her wand and used a shield charm to avoid getting wet. Actually she liked Peeves in spite of himself and smiled to herself in secret. Finally she arrived at the desk next to the Grey Lady;

"Can i sit on the other side of you my sweet Lady?" she asked.

She stopped and wondered if her strange riddle made sense for it made perfect sense to her Ravenclaw mind.

Abby writes the riddle down. Terrific another riddle to solve. Why can't for once they tell us what they want us to know. Abby grabs her parchment just in time to avoid Peeves splattering it with water. I wonder when Professor Kazimeriz is going to get here.

Helena floated back down to the ground and over to Liz. "Of course, you may my smart Ravenclaw lass," she said softly.

Wenzlebug · 03-19-2009, 04:58 AM

Cedric didn't want peeves to spoil DaDa class because it was his favorite class..He point his wand to the atmosphere of the room with a great concentration he said"Impervius"it is the spell that repels water..He hope that it works

SilverTiger · 03-19-2009, 05:00 AM

Elizabeth made her way to DADA class, a little nervously, since last time she had been in here Professor Kazimeriz had talked about cursing her. And even though he hadn't, she was still untrusting of the old man. And as she set foot inside, she was met by murky darkness. Immediately pulling her wand out, she said "Lumos."

As her wand lit, the beam revealed a water balloon heading straight for her. "Peeves," she groaned, before ducking to avoid getting drenched, then creeping further into the room, crouched down. Finally, she gave up and let her wandlight fade, instead casting a Shield charm before slowly letting her eyes adjust to the darkness and making her way even further in. As she got to the center of the room, she found most of the students there, and eventually found an open seat, where she dropped her bag before looking around. "Anyone figured out how to stop him yet?," she asked rhetorically, before glancing around to locate the poltergeist.

druidflower · 03-19-2009, 05:01 AM

SPLASH!

Most unfortunately, Tobi's shield failed Again when Peeves had thrown another water ballon at him. So he, like almost everyone else in the class, was now fairly... soaked.

"Honestly guys," Tobi said huffily, shaking his wet curly hair like a dog. "don't you remember ANYTHING from last class? I'm a menace with a wand, and even I can cast a shield charm. PROTEGO."

He didn't know how that was going to stop the barrage of water balloons though. The best thing to do would be to get the Poltergeist out, but how?

03-19-2009, 05:01 AM

"They are professor Lupa's stones!" she says with a grin.

"...but who took her stones then?" she asks looking up at her. "and why?"

atmor · 03-19-2009, 05:03 AM

"Mandy, come on over" she invited her under her shield "We're doing riddles." she smiled at the fifth year "Umm I'm good with charms I just don't know which to use right now." Jai thought "Your welcome to stay under my shield."

Where were the days when the students feared a Peeves attack? Oh, how he missed those days. Oh, how he longed for the students of yore. These kids just didn't know how to play the game. It seriously put a damper on his good time.

"Oh, you're no fun," he said, hurling a water balloon at her extra hard.

"Like I'm scared of him," Peeves scoffed, thrusting his ghostly nose in the air. "He's no more scary than a prune. Then again....." he stuck his tongue out and danced around the room, letting more water balloons fly at the students.
