Vivianne was so happy she didn't want to ruin her day and of course someone else's day today. She hopped her way into the seventh floor corridor from the Gryffindor's common room. She was so in the mood to do so many things... ooops... and she couldn't think of something to do right now.

As she continued to walk through the long corridor she noticed Nancy. Hmmm, now having the Slytherins up the towers was so new to her. She was used seeing them a few floors up fromt he dungeons but never on the seventh.

"Nancy?" She greeted. It was great seeing her again. "Hey pal it's been a long time since i last talked to you." Via wondered though why such look on her face, "Is there something wrong?"

Just when her attention was again drawn by a boy who suddenly fell on the floor. And even though it's a long corridor still you could decipher figures of people up there.

My... What's happening on this floor?

Then the boy started crying. She looked at Nancy and said, "We might as well try to help him whatever his problem is?" She's really in the mood...

Shana walked through the seventh floor corridor.And guess what ?! As usal she had nooo idea why she was here.Suddenly she went flying atleast 6 feet forwards.WOOOOW! She was acctually FLYING! Suddenly flying wasnt so fun as she smacked her face on the hard cold floor.Then she felt something warm trickling down her face.It was b-b-blood.Eww she wiped it off with her robe sleeve and then noticed a cuute little boy lying on the floor curled in a ball that she'd obviously fell over.I am Soo Sorry.She said Picking up the little boy and holding him in her arms.Aww he was crying.Aww Whats wrong ? Dont cry.She gave him a little hug and put him on the floor.

Nancy performed a rather awkward-looking little twirl to take in the rest of her surroundings in search for something, anything which might indicate where exactly she was at the moment. Unfortunately there was nothing, no sign saying "Enjoy your stay on the ... Floor". Well, that would have been too easy...

But then there was something that made her face brighten slightly: A voice. And whoever belonged to that voice was addressing her. Somebody who knew where they were! Finally! Nancy whirled around to face the girl who was approaching her with a beam plastered across her face. The girl who she recognized as..."Via! Hey!" A wave of relief washed through her as she grinned at the Gryffindor girl. She simply had to know where they were. She just had to. "Well...I...uhm...got sorta lost." She let out a small, slightly embarrassed laugh.

Before Vivianne was able to tell her their whereabouts they both fell silent upon hearing a little Smack! from somewhere further down the corridor they were standing in. Her eyes narrowed as Nancy tried to make out what exactly had happened. With a nod towards Via the 14 year without saying another word old strode towards the little boy who was lying there on the floor and was...crying?!

Nancy stopped dead in her tracks upon this realization and simply remained standing a few feet away from the boy, staring at him with a slight hint of panic on her face. She was still unable to make out who exactly the boy was but it didn't exactly matter to her since she surely would not approach him any further. He was crying! Eep... She just hoped Via would-

And then there was another Smack! as a girl who looked rather familiar walked around the corner, apparently oblivious to the boy lying on the floor, and stumbled right over him. Oh great. As the girl had regained her balance, a small stream of light from the window fell on her face and Nancy finally knew who she was. "Shana!" She exclaimed, trying her hardest to drown out the boy's sobs. "Are you okay?" Well, duh, she so was not judging by the blood that was slowly making its way down her cheek.

Via smiled at Nancy and was about to say something when there was another loud THUD on the floor. She turned to the figure of a girl.

Oh my. The craziness up here, she thought. Don't tell me there's a third one. And she just hoped it wouldn't be her or Nancy. The girl who was sprawled on the floor for a few seconds started to stand up and she realised it was Shana. Nancy obviously knew here either and with a concerned look on her face she walked over to her as Shana started to hug the boy.

"Goodness.." Via said as she checked Shana who was bleeding. Her hand searched her pocket for her handkerchief and she handed it to the girl. "Use this," she offered. Her gaze turned to the little boy and pitied him, "WHy are you crying?"

There's just a lot of things to deal with right now. She looked at Nancy again and she flashed her a smile, "Funny way of meeting again."

Keeping her eyes locked on Shana Nancy did not move an inch while watching the whole scene with a rather undecided look on her face. Should she just make a run for it when it was still possible? Or should she stay and go help Shana and the little boy despite the fact that he was sobbing that badly? Tough decision, very tough decision.

Nancy was already half-turned as a piece of white cloth caught her attention as Vivianne offered Shana her handkerchief to wipe the blood off her face. Jeez... She couldn't just leave the scene now, could she? An exasperated sigh escaped her lips as Nancy turned back fully to face the others again before she beckoned Shana towards her. "Come here, Shana. Let me take a look at this." She was quite skilled with spells like Episkey after all so she might as well help whom she could. No way was she getting any closer to that crying boy, though, whose face was still impossible to see from where she was standing.

How could Via laugh at something like this?! Especially when that boy was sobbing madly which made her want to flee the scene screaming. "Uhm...yeah...funny, right." Nancy was not quite able to keep the panic from her voice as she replied with a short laugh.

Via knew she had done the wrong thing, to smile when in fact they're in a middle of such a scene. "Sorry.." she murmured as she noticed Nancy isn't finding it funny. The whole falling and bleeding thing wasn't though but it's the fact that of all the times that they meet they always meet when something's wrong.

Since Nancy had already taken aside Chloe for some closer check up Via still stood there as her gaze fell on the little boy sobbing on the floor. She doesn't know this boy, really. "Stand up, young man..." she said softly as she sat down on the floor, "Everything's fine now... Stop crying," she comforted. She wasn't good with this things yet she enjoyed comforting others.

Why wouldn't you speak? Via wanted to ask the kid. "Tell me why... what's wrong?" she tried again. "We're here to help you. We're your friends," she added.

She looked at the two girls, she was hopeless and she just shrugged.

Shana heard her name.NANCY! she screamed and smiled.I'm fine,George didn't mean to make me trip.Its only a bit of blood.She beamed.

Shana smiled as she was passed a rather nice hankerchief(?) Why thankYuur Via. she smiled wiping Away George's tears.Im not so sure,you want me to wipe my face its like ewww.So its best to leave it at George's tears. She smiled giving Via the hanky back.Long time no see Guurlies.she wrinkled her nose and smiled.


Shana smiled.And tried to grab George's hand.She pulled him along like some sort of dog towards Nancy and Via.Via,Nancy,Meet George...George,Meet Nancy and Via. she beamed and let go of George's hand.

George gasped as he felt someone's feet make contact with him and then he heard a thud as the body attached to the feet hit the floor, he covered the sides of his face with his hands as he heard her apologise. Shana! Why is she apologizing?! It was my fault!! He'd had his eyes closed until she picked him up. His eyes flew open and he started to panic, then she hugged him and put him back on the floor... Wait... He was free from her...

"Because I fell and I was too near a window, and I think I'm lost" he answered her quickly before curling up again.

George sniffled and hiccupped as he stopped crying, he looked up at the girl who was just stood there who'd offered to help Shana.

George shook his head when she told him to stand up, he wasn't going anywhere NEAR that window, not unless he was tied to the building by a load of ropes. When she said they were his friends, he looked up at her "Y-y-you are?" he asked.

"Sorry Shana" George mumbled as she wiped away his tears, then she grabbed his hand and dragged him along, he whimpered and then looked down at his knee which was now scratched, his lower lip trembled as he saw a small spot of blood appear.

She was glad to hear from Shana and to know the young boy's name, George. And she smiled at Shana as she wiped the little boy's tears instead of the blood. Eww, that was a funny reaction. She didn't care either if it's blood or tears just as long as everything's fine.

Obviously, his falling made him cry you silly Via, she told herself quietly. "Near a window?" she asked no one in a particular. "You must be afraid of heights, aren't you?" she smiled at him.

Yeah... oh, i can be... Absolutely..

She just nodded at his question, "Yeah. Since Shana have introduced us already we already are your friends.." She helped him stand up, which was hard because the boy just didn't want to. "I'm not going to drag you into that window, trust me," she said.

Sorry? Why was Via apologizing?! Oh, now great. Now Nancy had mangaged to make the Gryffindor girl feel uncomfortable as well. Technically it wasn't entirely her fault though, but the sobbing boy's. Yes, it was all his fault. Why was he sitting there crying anyway?! "Oh, it's okay." Nancy tried to force a reassuring smile on her face but the only thing she was able to do was grimace awkwardly at Vivianne. She seriously was on the edge of casting a silencing charm on the boy.

As she waited for Shana to come to her so she could examine her little wound Nancy continuously glanced at the little boy sprawled across the floor. Couldn't he just shut up?! And just like that, he actually did. Oh, wow...uhm...right. Nancy blinked a few times at the boy in surprise while Shana, who had simply grabbed his hand, dragged him along until they'd both reached the spot where she and Via were standing. Even though the boy had stopped crying Nancy automatically winced slightly as she took an involuntary step back. What if he started to sob again?!

George? George.... Somehow that name sounded vaguely familiar in Nancy's ears. But there was no time for her to think about that now. There were more urgent things to be dealt with. Like the cut on Shana's face. Carefully Nancy drew her wand, pointed it at the wound and whispered, "Episkey." It didn't look deep or anything so Nancy hoped that it would simply heal with that spell.

Now, to this George-person. Her heart skipped a beat as she looked back at his face which looked like he was about to burst into tears again right there. Eep... "Uhm...yeah...nice to meet you, George." Whatever. "So, would you like-Wait! You're not the George. As in George, Steven's brother?!" He couldn't be right?!

Please dont hurt me...Please dont hurt me....Please dont hurt me.... she repeated over and over and-AHHHHH! Nancy got out her wand and cast a spell straight at her head.Shana thought back at the last time someone had cast a spell at her..It was....Jack.Her eyes filled with tears at the thought of him and him now being d-d-d-dead.She gulped and forced the tears away.She'd just told George to shut up she couldn't cry herself now and plus she didnt cry in public.She smiled.And gave George a little tap on the back.Jack..Everythings gonna be Okay.Uh-she sighed as her eyes filled with tears again.



Shana smiled.Right now that was all she could do she didn't have much to say and with blood dripping down her head she felt like fainting.




Awwwww.He apologized.Its fine Hun.Im not hurt.Buut you really do need to stop crying.You'll give yourself and everyone else a Headach.She hugged him and knelt down beside him.Awww he wass sooo cuuute.OMDDD Youuu are sooo cuute.....Caaan I adopt you as my younger brother duude ? she beamed then her eyes windend.She'd probably freaked him out properly.

"Umm.. yeah, I am" George nodded "Thank you" he smiled at her nervously and then clung to her as she stood him up "It's a long way down, a very long way" he told her.

George managed to stop himself from crying as Via picked him up. George smiled at Nancy and then nodded "Yeah, I have a big brother called Steven, why?" George asked, suddenly anxious.

"Umm, Shana, who's Jack?" George asked as she patted him on the back, he shivered and then looked at her "Are you sure? I've stopped, Shana. I promise, just don't drag me again please" George said shyly. Waaaaaait! ADOPT ME AS HER LITTLE BROTHER!? George stared at her and blinked a few times "Umm, I dunno, I have a real brother, but I don't mind..." he said quietly.

Jack?!? Was she pertaining to Jack Mosier? Her brow furrowed.

Watching Shana hug the boy once more, she felt a little bit of longing. She had no brother but she had a sister. And hearing her ask George if she could just adopt her as a younger brother my he wanted to either. Via saw so much through George's teary eyes. She just smiled at the scene.

Nancy seemed to know George's brother. Steven... She heard that name before, but where?

Ugh. Her mind wasn't working on reminiscing now. All she knew is thta she have met him... Steven. "It's fine. You wouldn't fall down there. You just need to be careful," she said. And as he asked Shana about Jack, Via looked at the girl and winced.

Shana sighed.Weel,Mate.Jack was...My friend..He was a hufflepuff like you.Him and His brother John died over summer.she sighed wiping her eyes.You have to give a yes or no answer Georgery.She nodded.You have a real life brother ? Fer reals ? I have to meet him. she nodded.



Shana smiled.And hugged Via and George.BIIIG HUUG! She beamed trying to make herself and everyone else,feel a bit happier.

George smiled at Via and then shook his head "But you can't be sure, it's scary."

"They died!?" George's eyes widened and then he watched her "Umm, as long as you never call me that again, yes" George smiled "Yeah, he's called Steven, and I have three cousins here too" he nodded. He squealed as she pulled him into a big hug with Via.

Shana nodded.Yeah,I'm sure he would've loved to meet you though,I'm sure they both would've.she smiled a wiped tears away from her eyes.Dont squeal.We'll get a professor coming over here.And thanks Little duude. she smiled and ruffled his hair.

She felt bad about the twins and the thought of them made her das just when CHloe pulled her and George into a hug. She didn't resist and she hugged the two back. She wanted to have an older sister when she was a first year but now it feels like she wanted a younger one.


"But i'm not letting you fall down there," she beamed at him. And she studied his reaction at knowing that John and Jack died. "I probably met your brother already. Just couldn't remember where and when."

"Really?" George smiled and then leant on her which was a very unusual thing for him to do.

"You look like you want a brother too" George smiled shyly at her "I'm glad, thank you" he sniffled and nodded "Yeah, Steven gets around a lot"

Seeing George smile, "Now, I see why Shana wanted you to be her brother. You're really cute," she laughed. "Why? Would you want to be?" she asked her. That would be totally fine with her. "I'd be honoured to have you as one if you'd agree," she said.

"Thank you" George smiled and then nodded "Yeah, I'd like it" he smiled. More family members that he could turn to, this was great, now he only had to find out how Nancy knew Steven.

Ohhhh.... she blushed. "Now i have a brother..." she said happily and she gave George again another tight hug. This would be fun.

Shana smiled.Yeah.Jack was sort of nice,At times other times I just reaaaally want to punch him.Buut im sure he would've loved to meet you. Awwwwww he was leaning on her.She ruffled his hair and smiled at Via.How've you bee then Via ? I havnt seen you since I was like a firstie! she sighed,this was not good,Not seeing her friends for liaaak a YEAAR!?

"I've been great Shana," she smiled at her. "And i see you've been great either." Yeah she was right, she haven't seen her much around and if not for this situation she wouldn't see her. "It's good seeing you around again. We should hang out more this time."

"Yeah" George smiled and then laughed as she hugged him.

"Oh, well, I dunno if I'd want to meet him then, not if you want to punch him" George mumbled, he tried to ignore the ruffling of his hair, she was family now, right?

Shana smiled.You'd have been fine,He just had a little tendency to get a bit angry sometimes but he wouldn't of hurt you. she smiled and ruffled his hair again.HaHa his hair was so ruffle-ish.
