He nodded, and found that he could handle that! WhooHoo!! Okay, calm down. No use in making one's self sick again. He leaned up against a wall. Stability was a big plus right now.

"Thank you, Merry." He told her sincerely. Go figure, the first year Ariana is not at Hogwarts, he finally needs a nurse. Huh.

She leaned up against the wall beside him as he rested and ruffled his hair. "You're welcome Edward." Mere looked at him and raised an eyebrow curiously. "So what all did you do while being all weird?" She asked and took the fedora and placed it on her own head. It slipped down below her ears and she had to adjust it. "You have a big head babe."

She hid the smile on her face as Professor Bunbury went on and on and on and...Merlin, Kayla was about to throttle her if she didn't shut up. "Yes we're nearly there" she said calmly and eyed the pocket once again. Please let them get there quickly.

Tugging Kayla down the hallway after her, Annie practically skidded to a stop just outside the portrait of the dragon. It looked vaguely familiar for some reason....and she really wanted to tickle it...but no, it was being sleepy, and Zan said sleepy dragons were poisonous n all, right?

Gulping slightly, Annie reached her hand out to the portrait and turned the handle she knew would be there. The door slowly creaked open and she smelled it....she could SMELL IT!

"CANNNNNNDDDDY MOUNTAINNNNNN!" the redhead hollered, clapping her hands cos she was all giddy with excitement.

She remembered to take Niffley out of her pocket before sniffing around for the sugar first, though. "Here you go, Mr. Niffley - go find me some choklit! Go go!" Annie gently set the niffler on the floor and waited for him to lead her to the candy. He would be like a leoplueradon! Yeah!

Kayla walked in behind Professor Bunbury and Mr Masterton (the Niffler). "I present to you Professor Bunbury..."she pointed to the Niffler in the woman's hands..."and Mr Masterton." Well that hadn't been as bad as she thought it could be. Now all they had to do was to get her to stand in front of the mirror.

Lyra hid back in the corner of the room. If Professor Bunbunz was here and gained her memory back, then those wonderful PINK shoes on her feet were GONE GONE GONE! She walked on the balls of her feet, careful to not make too much noise until she hit the wall with a light thud!

Her green eyes then made their way towards the little PET that Bunz held in her hand then placed on the floor. THAT was Mr. Groundskeeper...man? Wow! Who would do that to him and why?

Neo squeaked a little when he was placed on the ground. Where the heck were they now? Chocolate? What's chocolate? No no no...where's the shiny stuff? Shiny's the way to go, baby! Neo started to go searching all right, but he wasn't looking for chocolate. Heeeeree shiny shiny shiny...come here boy...

Seeing the cute niffler again and momentarily forgetting that it was the groundskeeper, Celandine let out a little exclamation, but still had the presence of mind to take off her shiny locket that the niffler had been playing with earlier and toss it into the pile of candy in front of the mirror. Would anyone notice if she had another chocolate frog? It was her candy anyway...

She scooted over and picked one up, knocking the locket free from the pile in so that it reflected the light off the mirror. The mirror that Cela still hadn't looke... oh! She dropped the chocolate frog and stared, chewing her lip fretfully.

"Quite," he grinned, trying hard not to laugh. One certainly had to admit that this was quite ridiculously funny.

"Good thinking , Cela," he told the girl who tossed the candy toward the mirror. Bontecou tried shooing Masterson in that direction "Look! Candy and a SHINY mirror over there!"

Herminny was walking down the 6th on a random walk around the castle cause she was board and just wanted to explor when she heard lots of nose and craziness coming from one of the corridors and walked down that corridor to find most of the teachers that have been acting crazy and lotts of students, the headmaster, and Professor Kazmiraz trying to lead the out of it teachers toward a mirror that was bright and glowing. Herminny wondered what the heck is going on, could this have something to do with restoring the teachers back to normal, if so should'nt Professor Pierce be here too, ever since the common room sleepover Herminny noticed from a distance that there was something off about Professor Pierce as well. Herminny kept her distance cause she did not want to get invlolved and possibly say or do something that could lose her house points or hinder the operation.

"I held class..." he told her, vaguely remembering jumping up and down on the tables and floor and just how.....odd he had acted. "I showed a video." and had a discussion, and the kids actually seemed to be interested in class. Hm.

Forrester cringed as Bunburry showed up and screamed something about a candy mountain....and a....leoplueradon? Intriguing, he thought she was the HERBOLOGY professor, not the Care of Magical creatures professor.

Oh, his head.

Shiny!?

Chocolate?

PFFT, forget about the darn chocolate! Neo wanted the SHINY!

Peering up at the man who said something about there being something shiny, he turned in the direction the man was trying to get him to go and...OMG. A shiny..near a BIG shiny! WHOA.

Mine.

Neo turned, peering at the other people in the room. No one was going to hurt him again, were they? If they did then that was it! No more Mr. Nice Niffler. The claws were going to come out, baby.

S'right. The CLAWS. Bring it.

Slinking over, he walked over to the small shiny thing. He peered around the room again to make sure that it was safe and then he passed over the line around the mirror. Neo started to scratch his ear as it tickled...then his other ear...his sides...where was that person for the belly rub when you needed them?...and finally, a little butt wiggle.

And then finally...

...Why is everything so big? And why the heck do I taste metal in my mouth? And WHY do I want to steal this mirror!? And why am I...covered in...

That was then followed by a loud and panic-stricken "SQUEAK!". Constantine turned around and glared at the headmaster and any other adults in the blasted room. He threw them a look as if to say 'change me back or I WILL bite you'.

Wait. He could bite people? Nice.

Lyra poked her fingers in her ears as she heard a loud squeak from the niffler....or whoever it was. So they say it was the Groundskeeper but...are they sure? Poor thing was just scared by it's reflection in the mirror and she knew she would squeak too if she saw that image. She click-clacked her way across the floor in her PINK shoes to where the niffler was...but not too close. She didn't want the thing to bite her but...it was so cute and fluffy and hairy.

"Come here little thing," she whispered as she squatted down in the floor when no one was really paying attention, except for that chocolate frog that Cela Bela dropped.

Constantine turned his head and looked at the girl with the bright pink shoes. Hey, wait...weren't those Bunb-

EXCUSE ME? Little thing!?!? I am your GROUNDSKEEPER! I'm 32 years old!...or is it 33...

Oooh, this was making his head spin. The niffler gave a little sigh/huff as he plopped down on his furry butt. His head drooped a little and his little light brown looked up at the girl trying to get his attention. Giving another little sigh, more like a whimper, he slowly walked over to the girl.

Boy! This niffler had somewhat of an attitude.

Lyra raised a brow as the LITTLE THING plopped on his butt for a moment but then began to move towards her. "Would you like a belly rub?" She wiggled her fingers a little as she was fairly good with animals, especially really coool and hip CATS!

"A little scratching behind the ears never hurt. That's it...good boy?...ummm...are you a boy or a girl?" She tilted her head for a moment. If this was Mr. Groundskeeper then it would be a boy. YEAH!

...She does know I'm work at this school right? Well...maybe the ears wouldn't be too bad...

Constantine extended his head out for her to scratch, but then frowned as she asked what gender he was. How the heck was he supposed to answer that?

Lyra eased her way to sit in the floor as she began scratching the little niffler behind the ears. "You are just adorable," she giggled as she moved her scratching to one side. "You like my shoes? Well..." She leaned down to whisper as if she were telling someone a secret.

"Professor Bunbury took these shoes off and I've been watching them...until she asks for them back of course." Her green eyes stared at the niffler for a moment. "Shhhhhh! Don't tell anyone!" She began giggling as who in the world would he tell? How would he tell? Squeak it out? And that made her giggle even more.

Liz bumped into him and Vindictus fell forwards. "Whaaaa?" he asked with a puzzled look on his face. Too many people. Too many adults. That nice nerdy-looking man. And Kazimeriz. "NOOOOOO! Let me out!"

After bumping into the professor, "Hey, is that, wait...is that the Mirror of Erised?" she asks pointing one of her sticky fingers.

"That old piece of glass the mirror? Nah, I think you've had too much cake 'cause everyone knows that Dumbledore hid it somewhere sa- yo, Annie! Is that the niffler? Can we tease him with shiny stuff?" Vindictus jabbered loudly and poked the niffler with a sticky finger.

Enjoying a nice side scratch, Constantine watched Max as he walked into the room. His gentle watch turned into a watchful glare as Max got close...

and then the man poked him!

Oh NO he didn't! OW. Watch the FUR! Constantine growled at Max and got up on all four paws. Bring it old man...

Annie had been standing there with her hands clasped to her chest, watching and waiting with nervous anticipation for Mr. Niffley to find the chocolate. She blinked as he waddled toward that giant mirror, then waddled back and seemed to have a COMPLETE personality change.

"Don't tease him, Maxxie, that's just asking for him to b---" she started to say.

"NIFFLEY!" Annie interrupted herself and marched over to the Niffler, squatting down in front of him and shaking a finger in his face. "BAD Niffley! Why are you growling at Maxxie? He's just being friendly! Bad bad bad Niffley! Say sorry!"

There was something about the eyes. "Get behind me Liz and Annie - this niffler is rabid! Bad niffler, bad!" Vindictus glanced around the room. No one was trying to help them from being devoured by the vicious creature! "You like shiny stuff, Mr. Rabies Niffler, don'tcha." He moved a little so that the mirror was behind him.

Oh, he was going to show them bad alright. Growling again, he slowly walked forward towards the grouping. Wait...the mirror was behind them! Maybe he could force them towards the mirror...

Rabid Neo Niffler it was, then. Growling a little more, he stepped towards them.

"EEEEEEEK he DOES have Rabies!" Annie squealed at the approach of NeoNiffler.

She promptly scuttled around to hide behind Max, just peeping over his shoulder at the little niffler. "It would be best to ppput him out of his misssery," the redhead sniffled. "We dddon't want him bbbiting anyone, righttt?"

Max pulled out his wand and pointed it at the rabid niffer. "Close your eyes, ladies. This is gonna get messy," he said and instead of stunning the animal, he used the wrong spell. "Finite Incantatem!" A blast of light shot out from his wand and hit the niffler right between the eyes.
