Come up to the door of Professor Dumont’s office and knock, the professor is usually in and is happy to talk to you about whatever you may have in mind, especially if it involves muggle studies.

As you walk through the door of Professor Dumont’s office, you are struck by the fact that at least part of this room appears not to be that magical at all, but looking rather like an office you might see on muggle television (had you ever had the chance to see muggle television, that is!) The main feature of the room is a very large wood desk with a nice comfortable chair behind it, a purple, cushiony chair. There are a couple chairs in front of the desk, which appears as though it may be oak, both these chairs are a dark green velvet, padded, and appear very comfortable as well. The rug on the floor is a forest green color, imprinted with a variety of flowers in many different colors, it is very relaxing and lovely, one of the prettiest rugs you could ever find. Professor Dumont inherited this rug from his family, it is an heirloom.

On the right hand wall you notice many photos calling to mind muggle entertainers. There are photos of various muggle rock bands from the ‘60’s and ‘70’s including the Beatles, the Rolling Stones, the Who, Pink Floyd and Led Zeppelin (it turns out that Professor Dumont loves this type of music). There are pictures of Elvis Presley as well, along with such muggle icons as Marilyn Monroe and James Dean, Michael Jackson, Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin, Bing Crosby, Perry Como, and many others.

On.the wall immediately behind the desk are some photos that are obviously personal. There are pictures of a very old castle with high pirouetting towers, this is Castle Dumont, Antonio’s family home. You gather that it is located somewhere in France, and you would be correct. You will also find many of the pictures that move and talk, wizarding pictures, there is a man and a woman in their 50’s, Professor Dumont’s parents. There is a new picture added this year, one which has a special place right over the Professor's desk. This picture is of a very pretty little girl, no more than 2 years old, with curly dark hair and a somewhat familiar look about her. You would be guessing correctly if you guessed that this is a picture of Professor Dumont's daughter, Antonia Michelle, who he has just become reunited with during the term break. But that's a whole other story, one you may or may not be lucky enough to hear (probably not!)

Along the left wall there is a long table which goes the length of the room. On this table are many muggle items to look at and perhaps even play with, including computers, video monitors that might even pick up muggle television (who knows?), video game systems, cell phones, iPods, skateboards, yoyos, Playdough, Legos, various board games, and a huge variety of books on all subjects. Your eyes fall on this table longingly, perhaps you might have the chance to play with some of these items yourself if you are very good some time, you never know!

Slytherin Fox · 02-18-2009, 10:07 PM

Antonio looked really worried. "I think it's a good idea if everyone stays in one place, if we can help it," he said. "I'm sorry to hear about your brother, Barry, do you think he will be all right?"

ooc: This plot is getting too involved and juicy for the School RP, so I am going to go ahead and request a thread in the Vanishing Cabinet, where we can finish up our little quest against Claxy Claxton once and for all! It's just that I feel this plot deserves a thread of its own, there is already a lot going on in the school as it is. All of you are invited to participate in that thread, of course, and we need all of you! More details to follow, and I will let you all know when it is approved. Till then, we can continue here in my office. The RP is going to be called Breaking the Curse!

Becky · 02-18-2009, 10:15 PM

Jack nodded "Send everyone to my house, even your daughter" Jack told the professor.

OOC:

We have some stuff planned, so we carry on here and RP the families in Liam Mosier's house. Linda, Liam and I will plan the rest so it's a surprise for you

Danny Boy · 02-18-2009, 10:21 PM

"I don`t think he can professer, they can`t stay, Dads not going to stay home and anyway if hes with Liam it`ll be better" said Barry quitely and he stuck his head back to his fathers house

Dan had everything packed with the help of magic and was about to leave when Barry entered "So?" he asked stuffing a large bag into his pocket and then proceeding to pick up Daniel

"To Aunty Erins house her husband Liam is there" he said and then he saw his dad nod and then proceed to block the fireplace and so Barry took his head out and looked over to Jack "You better tell your dad they`re comming and Daniels ok dad took care of him he needs rest though"

ooc: How does that work? What areas would be in this plot? Everywhere to do with the plot? Including hogwarts? Oh and Barrys family will arrive when this new thread starts. Actually now

Slytherin Fox · 02-18-2009, 10:26 PM

Antonio said, "Thank you. I'll go and get Antonia ready. Anywhere she is safe, that's my only concern." He prepared to throw some more floo powder into the fireplace and step into the floo network, on his way to rescue his daughter.

ooc: Excellent!

The Breaking the Curse RP is going to have us going on the hunt for Claxton and (hopefully) finally finding him. What else should we cover, guys?

Jack shook his head "No, everyone is going to my house" Jack told him "Ok, I'll tell dad" Jack nodded

ooc: Excellent!

"Sure" Jack nodded before Dumont left, then he looked back to John worriedly, Jack hurried to his side and waited for John to come around

OOC: We are making a thread in the Vanishing Cabinet, we are going to RP at the Mosiers house for now, until the thread goes up

Linda: Great, let's think up something, because I only posted this - The Breaking the Curse RP is going to have us going on the hunt for Claxton and (hopefully) finally finding him. What else should we cover, guys?

Slytherin Fox · 02-18-2009, 10:41 PM

Antonio said, "Be back in a minute, guys!", as he stepped into the fireplace.

ooc: Yes, we are going to have everyone united in the Liam Moiser House RP, then we will go on the hunt for Claxton in the Breaking the Curse RP. We can even work back and forth between the two, if you guys think that would work? (One thread for a homebase and planning, the other for the hunt.) This seems a complicated enough plot that we might need the two threads.

Becky · 02-18-2009, 10:43 PM

Jack nodded "Ok"

OOC: We should go with the two threads

Danny Boy · 02-18-2009, 11:10 PM

Barry watched the professor go. "Well I thought you said you`d write to your dad?" he asked Jack, he was more fond of the boy now but he was scarred for his family

ooc:Yeah ywo threads so its not so confusing.

Becky · 02-18-2009, 11:18 PM

Jack nodded "Ok, stay by his side please" Jack asked Barry, indicating John "Don't leave his alone for a second" Jack said with fear clear in his voice

He picked up a quill from the desk and started to scribble stuff down "Done, ok, let's send it" Jack called Dumont's owl down "He won't mind" Jack attatched the letter "Take it to Liam Mosier" he told the owl before sending it away, Jack walked over to the door and tried to lock it, he was unsuccessful so he put a chair in front of it, no-one needed to walk in on a load of unsupervised students right now.

Danny Boy · 02-18-2009, 11:24 PM

Barry nodded to Jack "And now we wait" he said and for something to do he got out his HoM homework to distract himself

Becky · 02-18-2009, 11:32 PM

Jack nodded and ran back to John "John" he muttered softly "John?" he grabbed his hand

Slytherin Fox · 02-19-2009, 01:39 AM

Antonio arrived back into his classroom, feeling a little better about things at least. His students were still here as he had left them, and he observed that Jack had wisely closed off entrance to the office from the outside. Quick thinking in view of the circumstances! "I'm back," he announcing, stating the obvious. "Everyone is safe, all the families are there. Did anything happen that I should know about?"

ooc: Guys, just so you know, "Breaking the Curse" has qualified in the Vanishing Cabinet as well, so we can begin the hunt for Claxton whenever you're ready!

Danny Boy · 02-19-2009, 02:29 AM

"No not really Jack wrote to his father" said Barry "Good they`re safe, hows Daniel?" he asked.

Saiai · 02-19-2009, 05:02 AM

"I want to be there. At the confrontation I mean." Sakura suddenly spoke up. "You can't stop me and you wont!" Sakura had been thinking about some things when Jack's words finally registered and no way was she just going to sit back and wait for a word that everyone was ok, when the did finally confront Claxton.

Jack nodded "Thanks" he kept glancing back at John worriedly "I wrote to dad, and John is still KO" Jack said worriedly

Jack then turned to Sak "Sak" he started softly "I don't want you there, If you get hurt... I'll probably do something stupid and get hurt trying to help you" Jack told her honestly "I can't lose you, I can't take the risk of putting you in danger for me" Jack shook his head "I am not going to be able to focus, I'll be too worried about you, unless you can show me you can protect yourself" Jack smiled wanting to give her a small chance, she wanted it so he had to give her options

Saiai · 02-19-2009, 07:49 AM

"And what about me? How do you think I would feel not knowing what was happening, knowing that you may get hurt and that I wouldn't be there. I would drive myself mad worrying about you, it would be worse for me to be here." She took a few small breaths. "How?" She asked eyes burning. She was determined that she would be there.

Suddenly Sakura looked worried. "Mei Lin." was all she said. She hadn't thought of her sister since any of this mess had started and was only now realising that her sister could be in very real danger. Her sister who just recently moved into her own apartment in Muggle London and who had yet to put up any wards that would protect her.

"I think" Jack spoke to everyone "That we should all try dueling, against each other to get better, I've already had a long duel against a third year" Jack nodded "But, you, I want you to duel someone good, really good, like the professor, I want you to be better than me, I can't go there knowing I'm better than you" Jack told her "I need you to be as good as you can possibly be" Jack looked straight into her eyes, she was determined, and a little scared, but only for him, his hand brushed across her cheek lightly "I have to know you are going to be safe, whatever happens" Jack told her, swallowing slightly "and I mean whatever, even if I get hit, you have to save yourself, I can handle it, but I can't handle you getting hurt. You know this is dangerous" he told her softly "You have to be prepared to lose one of us, it will probably happen" he warned her "It might not be any of us in this room, but it will be one of us who goes, I know, I can feel it, It's inevitable, Either way, I am saying my goodbyes before we go, just in case" Jack told her.

"Go, get Mei Lin, take her to my dad's house" Jack urged her

"You want me to fight the Professor? If that's what it takes I'll do it. But I can't promise to just leave you and run. Not if there is a chance that..." She trailed off. "No, no goodbyes. And I sincerely hope that you're wrong." Sakura's eyes flickered to the floo and looking at Dumont she hoped he wouldn't mind that she hadn't asked if it was okay to use his floo powder before taking a handful of it and flooing into her sister's apartment.

A few minutes later she came back and with an apologetic smile at Dumont she ungracefully sank to the floor.

Jack nodded "I do, you have to Sak, promise me" Jack was serious "I am saying my goodbyes, you don't have to, I hope I'm wrong aswell, but Sak, these people are much better and more evil than you can believe" Jack shivered, then he let her go to the fireplace, when she came back he hurried over to her "I know, she's safe though" Jack smiled warmly "c'mere" he hugged her

She sighed before nodding. "I promise. I'm not happy about it but I promise." Sakura was happy to be in his arms but she pulled back slightly when he mentioned that they would be much better than she could ever imagine, more evil too. This was the moment she'd been dreading. Standing up she began to pace before stopping right in front of him.

"You're wrong about that. I know how evil they can be and how good they are. See there's something I haven't told any of you. I would keep it from you now if I could but then you would find out eventually anyway." Sakura stopped and took a fortifying breath. She was extremely nervous about revealing this family secret, just in case anyone drew a wand on her. However it needed to be done. "My parent's aren't exactly well umm. You see they know Claxton, they associated with him often when I was younger and they still have contact with him, it's just now that we're actually living in England it's harder. They were both Death Eaters and if we go to fight..." She broke off with a sob before continuing. "They will most likely be there and they wont stop, they will kill you if they have to. Both of them are excellant at curses, hexes, jinxes and potions. You name it and they know it." She turned to Jack pleadingly. She could only hope that he wouldn't hate her for this.

Jack froze as Sak pulled away from him, he said nothing to the information she'd given him, he just stared, thinking, he stood up and hugged her when she started to cry, it was robotic though "If I get killed, at least it will be for a good cause" Jack told her "You can't choose your family" he muttered to her, still staring unseeingly, he knew how bad they were, Sak was scared, Jack tried to focus but he couldn't he needed to sit down, he moved over to the sofa and just stared. Maybe someone would try to get him out of this trance like state.

Sakura looked at everyone else apprehensively. She knew she shouldn't have told them, but what was she supposed to do? Wait until the battle and then say oh yeah and this is my mother and father? Sakura slowly walked over to Jack and shook him slightly before jerking her hand back as though burned and stepping backwards. She only just realised that anger may follow the shock he was feeling.

Jack felt himself being nudged or shaken, he gasped as he managed to focus again "John" he muttered "Sak, don't worry" he smiled at her "I was replaying the vision in my head" Jack told her "I promise, I'm not mad with you" he promised "I know you didn't make them like that, and you are with us, that's the most important thing" he nodded at her "Now, we need John to wake up. now" Jack put force on the last word "If he doesn't..." Jack trailed off

Saiai · 02-19-2009, 09:22 AM

Sakura nodded slightly and walked closer to him, it seemed the safest place to be what with none of the others having reacted to her statement yet. She grabbed his arm slightly and stood behind him. She was brave but she wasn't stupid, and it would be stupid to leave herself as an open target. She could cast a shield charm but then she ran the risk of people taking her getting out her wand the wrong way. "He'll be fine. He probably just needs to sleep or something to recover."

Danny Boy · 02-19-2009, 09:23 AM

Barry looked over to Sakura "You`ll be safe Sakura even without your parents" he said quitely and looking at Jack he said "Try and live a little Jack. Your letting Claxton take over your life! I don`t. Enjoy life and think about Claxton when you have to, not all the time " he told Jack.
