Jack fell and walked away 'I hate it when they think I'm scared of an evil smile'

'Why did he say my name?' Jack wondered 'He's not worthy' he thought before turning out of the corridor.

Then, attempting to act harder than he was, though he was shaking like the dickens, Jake stood up tall... erm... as tall as he could go. "Yes, ma'am, unfortunae coincidences... wrong place at the wrong time... with the wrong emotions flying about." Bah! Stupid emotions.

Jake felt a little more assured, though he feared for his safety in the Hufflepuff first year boys dorm. Professor Bunbury was better than his first, second and third impressions had... well... impressed in his brain.

"I should go... sort my eye out..." and my nerves.

"Oh yes, the hospital wing would be best," Bunbury agreed, nodding at the boy. "See you in class, Mr. Upstead."

She glared at the retreating figure of Mr. "I Have Anger Issues and Won't Admit It" Mosier and followed him out of the corridor. To the dungeons....mwahahahahahahahhaaaaaa.

"See you in class, Professor Bunbury," Jake nodded and waited for a few moments before heading to the stairs, wondering where the hospital wing actually was.

Hmmm... the top of the building is closer, so I think I'll try up there, and work my way dooooooooown.

And off Jake went.

He did not want to be near the Hufflepuff corridor anytime soon.

Reese entered the fifth floor corridor and her eyes scanned the surrounding. The corridor was almost empty except for a few students who were engaged in a conversation. She sighed and walke dover to the nearest wall and sat down. She pulled some paper and a pen out of her bag and begin to doodle little heart on a sheet of paper.It seemed like she had nothing to do today except be bored. She hasn't seen any of her friends lately, so they must be busy with homework...or prefect dudies.

Whistling merrily to himself, Cale strolled down the fifth floor corridor, reading out of his herbology book. He had never realized that there really were some very interesting plants out there--he had just never really paid attention to them. Of course, the gorgeous new Herbology teacher might be the cause of his newfound interest in the subject, but he would never admit that to anyone. He was Cale Newell, and he did NOT get crushes on teachers. That was immature, something that...third years did.

He looked up to make sure he wasn't about to walk into a wall when he saw Reese sitting on the floor a little bit further. "Hi Reese!" he said with a smile, plopping down next to her instantly. "What's up? Whatcha drawing?" he asked, craning his neck to try and see her paper.

Reese stopped drawing when she heard someone approach her.Well,well,well...look who finally arrived.Cale.It seemed like forever since she has talked to him.Now she can finally ask about him and Evolette and what happened last year.Yep.She was going to get some answer.Since Evolette would tell her anything.

"Hiya Cale,"she replied."Oh,I'm doing...nothing.Just being bored."she looked down at her heart then back at Cale. "I'm just doodling some little hearts,"she told him.She turned her paper around,so Cale could see them. "So,what have you been up to?"

The Baron came in through a wall to the corridor and glowered at the children. He looked around making sure she was no where around and then lowered himself to the floor to take a stroll.

"Oh, cool," he said with a smile. He settled down more comfortably on the floor and sighed. "Not much--I'm actually falling behind on schoolwork lately. It sucks," he muttered. "What about you?"

"Mr.Newell is falling behind on schoolwork?I can't believe it,"Reese said."Well,I always fall behind,but I manage to catch up by the end of the term." She leaned back against the stone wall and looked at Cale. "Oh,nothing much.I've just been writing a lot.Mostly songs.But I also finally got around to writing Lucas...It's finally over,Cale."She gave him a slight smile.She just knew Cale would be excited that her and Lucas have finally broken up.

"Say there" The baron said indignant. "Mr. Prefect... I wouldn't brag about falling behind on work." He said with a snear, "I will have your badge for that! Where is Sir Nicholas de Mimsy Porpington when you need him... You are Gryffindor are you not?"

"Really? That's great!" Cale said with a grin. "About time you two finally ended things--where was that silly boy anyways? I haven't seen him in ages," he wondered aloud.

Cale looked up when he realized that a ghost--and a very eerie looking ghost at that--was talking to him. Pssh, this was probably the Slytherin ghost, since they were ALL after Cale ALL the time. Figures this one would address him about his badge. "Well, it's not like I'm failing or anything, I just have more work than usual," he told the ghost smugly. Silly ghost who thought he knew everything. He was ruining his mood. "And of course I'm a Gryffindor," he added. Couldn't the ghost see his yellow and maroon robe? Perhaps colorblindness came with death or something.

"I know.It is great.It feels good to be single,again,"Reese said with a slight smile."Oh,I actually never talked to him.I wrote him.Since I never see him around and my owl always can gind him,I just decided to write."She slightly shrugged.

Reese's attnetion turned to a ghost that started talking to Cale.Gosh.She hated these ghost.Especially...Peeves.Ugh."He wasn't bragging,"she interjected."He was just stating that he has been behind."

Nick somehow found himself at the head of the group. He waited for the Grey Lady and the Fat Friar to catch up, as they had agreed to stick together in their search for the Baron. He had a sense that they were very close to finding him, but it was best if they all stayed together. There were many students and professors about, and staying in a group would make things easier for them.

The Fat Friar floated along with Sir Nicholas and the Grey Lady on each side of him. Eyeing the Bloody Baron's pearly sheen from down the corridor, the Fat Friar called out, "Good evening, sir." As they finally reached him, he elaborated, "The other house ghosts and I feel it is imperative that we hold a meeting. Are you available to join us to discuss a few important matters?"

She transfigured her shoes to her soft Chinese slippers. Great for being sneaky as they were ninja slippers! She was pulling everyone else behind her as they were trying to keep close to the ghosts as they were hunting for the Bloody Baron. She was a Ghost Hunter! This was exciting.

Reese nearly jumped off the ground when a sudden voice called out of no where.She looked at the ghost that was coming up towards her and Cale.Great.Another ghost.Maybe it was about time for her to make some ghostly friends...or atleast talk to them.

"Hello sirs,"she said to the ghosts that just arrived.

Kayla stood at the bottom of the staircase on the fifth floor watching the ghosts as they gathered together. She turned to the two girls, "should we try and get a little closer so that we can hear what they are saying?"

"Over here," Anna half-whispered, dragging the group behind some nearby statues. "Now...everyone quiet." Anna glanced through a few of the statues, trying desperately to see or hear something. Ohhh, that polite ghost who'd wished her a good evening was asking the Bloody Baron if he was free to attend a meeting. Maybe they'd have the meeting right here in the fifth floor corridor! Anna could feel it---something good was about to happen!

*Gabben stood behind the girls and held a finger to his lips. He pointed his wand to the group of ghosts and whispered a spell. The ghosts voices were a little louder but not to much.*

What in the name of Merlin? Since when was Cale a ghost magnet? Looking up at the snooty ghost, he stood up off the floor and looked over at Reese. "We should probably be going, Reese--isn't it dinnertime?" he asked, glancing at his watch for dramatic effect. He beckoned for her to follow him. "Erm, nice to meet you," he said to the smug looking one who had questioned him and then he waved goodbye to Sir Nicholas, who was with a very plump little Frair ghost.

Hurrying down the corridor, he turned the corner and BAM! He collided right into Paris Greenwood. Just as he was about to open his mouth and snap at the Slytherin, he saw Kayla, Anna, and another Hufflepuff gathered at the bottom of the staircase, out of the view of the ghosts. Lightbulb! They were trying to listen to them, obviously--and Cale was NOT about to miss out on the fun.

Mouthing the word "Sorry" to Paris, he winked at Anna and squeezed himself into the group, hoping that Reese would stick around for the show as well.

She nearly fell over as Cale ran smack into her. She covered his mouth with her hands before he could give away their position. She blinked a few times as she tried to clear her vision. "We are hunting ghost," She whispered in his ear before she pulled her hand away from his mouth. She smiled when he said sorry. "Its ok," she whispered back to him.



She shook her head. She pulled some extendable ears out of her bag. "We don't want to alert them that we are sneaking up on them." She whispered.

She rolled her eyes at Anna. Trust her to point out the obvious. Just like a prefect. "Yes we know that," She whispered to her.

She smiled at the Hufflepuff's charm. She nodded at him.

Reese watched Cale get up and say that it was time for dinner."Uh-yeah." She qucikly stood up and looked at the ghosts." It's was a pleasure meeting you,"she said with a smile.

She followed behind Cale down the corridor until Cale ran right into someone.She rammed into Cale's back when he ran into the girl.She stepped back and looked at Anna and the little group she had with her.She raised her eyebrow at them.They were up to something.As Cale squeezed into the group,she squeezed into the group behind Cale.She was going to see what everybody was to.

Lyra's eyes shifted from person to person, but doing as everyone else. Hide behind the statues? Like a ghost couldn't see them or hear them or better yet, know their moves before they are made? But she didn't say a word as she hid behind one little thingy, but made sure to keep her ears opened as to what was going on.

*Gabben rolled his eyes. They were turning into a large group. He looked over to Kayla and gave her a look saying please-don't-make-me-write-lines-for-this look and mumbled another spell. To the group of on lookers nothing had happened. Gabben hoped that when or if the ghosts were to look or come this way they would only see wall and not students. He turned around to see Lyra behind him. Gabben raised an eye brow to her and smirked. He shook his head and mouthed trouble team. It looked like the girls that were known for trouble were now all here.*

"Hmmm," he said growling, "I don't like you..." he told the prefect.

The Baron raised an eyebrow at the Slytherin.... "Are you telling me I'm wrong?" He said narrowing his eyes at her. "Don't make me haunt your dorm and enter your nightmares!" he glared.

"Of course, I will meet you at the spot." and with that he poofed.
