LouAnn's face practically lit up, and she nodded in reply to what Torin suggested. Yes, yes, let's make posters and signs clearly stating our disgust with his stand on this despicable werewolf issue," she said. "Are any of you good at creating slogans or posters? I'm sure between the four of us, we can come up with something to let our voice be heard."

"Ohhh, I like your thinking, Tibi! Luring him out of his office sounds fantastic," she remarked. "We'll have to come up with a good plan. You know, something that will make him stop everything and run! Jake and I were in his office just the other day, and it was packed. Packed, I tell ya!"

She laughed a little at Cam's idea of wearing Headless Hats to dungbomb the man out of there. She thought the idea was perfect! Hilarious, but perfect! "Brilliant, Cam! Brilliant! Dungbombs plus Headless Hats equals success in my book. I say we dungbomb the man!" she excitedly agreed. Tibi was right, too. Lupa being hurt would get Kazimeriz alert and ready to go.

Walking over to the group of people Reid carefully examined what each one of them looked like. The only one missing was their team leader. Sitting down with the other three Reid similarly introduced himself. "Reid Hemingway. It's a pleasure to be working with you." He said giving a polite but distant smile.

The only person he recognized was Jake although now that he thought of it he did faintly remember hearing the name Lasca. It was probably just a name he heard when walking in some corridor or another though. It would be interesting to work with these people though as asides from Theo, or at least Reid thought that was his name, he hadn't been paying all that much attention to the leader thing, all of them were younger than him and he'd never actually been introduced to any of them.

Adrienne had been standing kind of aimlessly, waiting for something else to happen (Most likely as a side effect of whatever had given her that nice comfy cloudy feeling, even though one of the tiny voices in her head had started yelling at her about Imperiius curses and such. But there was no way anyone would have gotten into the school who was willing to risk casting something that dangerous. Of course not.) when she saw a younger girl gesturing to her and a couple other girls to join her. Moving over to where the girl was standing, she was interested when it seemed the Runes girl was part of their team. So at least she'd finally get that introduction taken care of. And it made their whole conversation earlier kind of ironic. Since now they were really going to have to deal with Lupa.

Listening as the other three spoke, she nodded at what they said, and mentally connected their appearances with their names as they supplied them, then spoke. I'm all for the double strike. It definitely would show we mean what we're saying, too. More so than if we just hit her once." She paused, looking at the other three for a second, before adding, "Anyway, I'm Adrienne. And, seeing as I'm a sixth year Ravenclaw, I guess I'd be with Ainsley in striking at her class office." Now they just needed to figure out their plan of action.

"Alright, that sounds good," said Kiri confidently, nodding. She cast a look around. Everywhere, little groups of students had huddled together and were, presumably, discussing plans. Kiri listened idly to their conversations for a moment, the beginnings of a plan forming in her head. She beckoned the others closer. "Here, I have an idea," she announced. "Listen closely."

There were a few minutes of industrious whispering...

"So, to summarise," Kiri finished quietly, "Reese and I will take care of Lupa's office in the Slytherin common room. And you two," she added, pointing at Adrienne and Ainsley, "go for the other office on the fifth floor. Ancient Runes. Erm..." She glanced at a small piece of parchment on the table she'd used to jot down a few notes. "Oh yes. We need one or two people to send off those owl orders. I guess one person could do that, but it'll look suspicious when the order arrives. Does anyone have their own owl? We should probably avoid the Hogwarts ones..." She sighed and scanned the parchment. "I... think that's it?" she said finally. "Unless there's something else from one of you?"

Kiri looked at Copernicus. She wasn't quite sure what was going to happen next. Were they all allowed to leave whenever their plan was figured out?

Lyra realised she was staring at the Hufflepuff boy longer than neccesary. She hated it when people stared and now she was doing the same thing! Lyra heard him adressing himself as Jake and she gave a nod indicating that she had heard him and then looked to a girl that had sat down on the chair by their "Team Morgan Table" Lyra watched her as she told her name and the Slytherin nodded yet again.

Lyra suddenly realised she didn't even knew their "target" that well. Yes she knew Professor Morgan was the CoMC teacher and that she was friendly with that Werewolf. But other than that she knew nothing. Maybe it didn't matter though, she knew that Professor Morgan was a werewolf suporter and that was the only thing that counted right now.

Her thoughts were being disrupted when she heard the voice of another student close by. Lyra looked up and saw a older boy saying that it was a pleasure to work with them but his facial expressions showed no sign, his smile was distant and Lyra silently grinned to herself. He was a Slytherin, she was sure about it.

Right, so now Jake, Lasca and Reid had told their names so the other guy must be Theo and was their leader.

He and Cameron really seemed to be thinking along similar lines here. And Tibi's idea was good as well really. "Yes, headless hats are a great idea. But it's too bad that no one has an invisibility Cloak as well." He sighed and then wondered if there was anything else here to plan.

Not feeling sure, he decided to move along with the poster angle. "Well, I can't really make great posters, but I think that if we plan the text for them now, the person who is the best artist can work on them later." He looked to LouAnn to see if she agreed with this as the Team leader. "Oh, and I know that this seems sorta juvenile," he added as another idea hit him. "Maybe we could also spray paint in his office. Leave more hateful words and maybe a few drawings as well."

How could Satine have forgotten the most important part about the Headmaster...he WAS a werewolf....o she hated him even more suddenly....she listened intently to Copernicus' comments....while her mind tried to justify another reason to not like him, but she just couldn't think of one...

"I think we should make him look like he's gone crazy or is uncontrollable to be trusted around us poor, defenseless children...that way the board has to remove him...or something like..." she paused because once again she wasn't sure where these thoughts were coming from....she thought about the gargoyle....

"Do you remember the spell the mermaids used last year to bust the Gargoyle's so they could enter the stairway..." she paused when a thought came to her..."but if we damage them that might bring attention to us...surely someone knows the password to get in...." she said hopefully glancing over the other students in the room...

"If we could find it out it would be more of a surprise attack...could we use a truth spell on one of the weaker professors....like the new astronomy professor to get the passowrd?" she said thinking her thoughts outloud.

"Nice to meet you, Satine." Nataly replied. But Satine looked..familiar? "I think I met you brieftly on the train."

She listened to Satine's words. She was right, but she was sure it was very hard to scare the headmaster. First, he was a werewolf, and second, if he got to the position of the headmaster of Howwarts, he had to be with a great influence and charisma.

"You mean we have to somehow get to the mermaids and ask them what was the spell? And what if they refuse to tell us?" Nataly asked worriedly. They didn't have much time, and it was a risk too high.

"We can damage his wolfsbane potion in the full moon." Nataly suggested. "We can make the potion not to work, and lock the headmaster in an unused room. We'll put camera's on the seiling. Then will give us the ability to prove to the wizarding community that it's too dangerous to allow werewolfs to Hogwarts."

Satine looked at the other girl with a smile, "O no not ask the mermaids...I was saying that someone must know the password...but last year the mermaids used a spell to crash open the gargoyle so if someone remembered that spell we might could use it...but I still think it wouldn't be enough of a surprise attack to bust up the gargoyles..."

She listened to the suggestion..."Good idea with the wolfsbane...does he make it himself or does someone else...I'm sure he gets the ingredients from the garden so we could sabotage it there before he picks them..." but she paused...o no that would make Bunz not very happy with her and she was her fave teacher...but it was for the cause....

"Well they would have to be bewitched cameras or the magic wouldn't let them work...the Muggle Studies professor knows how to do that, but I'm not sure how we could con him into doing it...so I'm not too sure how reliable the cameras would be...." then an idea came to her...

"What if the Headmaster became uncontrollable when a reporter from the Prophet happened to be visiting? that would make front page news..." she paused to see what everyone else thought...they had to nail down something pretty soon...

Looking around at his silent group, Jake sighed for a moment. Was nobody going to start? Every other team had.

"What about... an animal polyjuice potion?" he asked, shrugging his shoulders slightly. "Everyone knows they shouldn't be done. We could get a wolf hair from Bontecou or Lupa's office... and mix up a polyjuice potion, and then she'd be out of comission for a while. It's a little far-fetched... but..."

Jake paused, looking awkward, this was more difficult than he'd anticipated. "Or, as a start, we can just take over her office and leave a bunch of traps there? Fill it with messages? Have a spell so there's a wolf howl whenever she opens a door or window? Or is even IN there..."

Making a face, Jake looked at the other lot.

Alex looked at all her group and shook her head. "How about we go with something easier.. I am part Veela, perhaps we can use that to an advantage?" She asked looking at Satine, Copernicus and Nataly. "Why not let me use my charms on him, to lure him out of the school, or whatever you have planned. I can be a dangerous weapon.. Feel free to use me." She said in a somewhat monotone voice..

But somewhere deep inside her, she couldn't believe she had just uttered her precious secret out loud.

Nataly smiled back. "I'm sure Kazimeriz is the one making the wolfsbane potion. Maybe we can request the Kazi team to make him do the potion wrong." she suggested. But she knew it would be too hard, so she went to comment on Satine's another suggestion.

"That's a very good idea, but it would be hard." she cautioned. "We'll have to confund him or something.. Copernicus what do you think about it? Should we concentrate on this plan?" Copernicus was the oldest, the leader and probably the smartest in their group, so Nataly knew she had to ask him.

"That's very useful." Nataly said immediatly. "We can use it not only to lure him out, but also to make him act stupid."

LouAnn shrugged when Torin brought up Invisibility Cloaks. It'd be nice to have them, and it would certainly help matters, but she, too, didn't know where to obtain one. "Yeah, it's too bad. I guess we'll have to settle for Headless Hats. At least we have those," she said, looking towards Cam and smiling.

She nodded when Torin mentioned planning the words to go on the posters. "Okay, that sounds like a plan. Tibi? Cam? Do either of you know any good slogans?" she asked, looking towards the two younger boys. She giggled when Torin suggested spray painting the walls of Kazimeriz's office. "That's not juvenile! That's brilliant! Let's do it!"

Adrienne leaned closer as Kiri had requested, nodding as the plan was discussed, as well as when her assumption that she was going to end up working with Ainsley was verified. "I have an owl," she said, keeping her voice low just in case anyone was trying to listen in. It seemed everyone was on the same page, but their plan would be better if less people knew. And it wouldn't work very well if there was a crowd standing around because they knew about owl orders.

"So when do you think we should implement the plan?," she asked, mentally trying to figure out how long it should take to send Rochester with the order, as well as the time it might take for him to return. And they needed to figure out where to go for the orders, to avoid suspicion. And she didn't know if Copernicus was going to want to speak to them all again, or if they were all on their own again. Which, glancing at Kiri again, it seemed the younger girl was also curious about. But in the same respect, Adrienne just wanted to get everything rolling.

Lasca was wondering where their leader was when Jake seemed to speak up and finally got things rolling. His idea was interesting and it had potential.

"Polyjuice Potion takes a long time to cook up...maybe we can transfigure her and then put a sticking charm on it? That way we can make her look the way we want her to and the wolf howl idea is great. I like it."

She had to smile at the cartoonish wolf that came to her mind when she thought of Professor Morgan under a Transfiguration spell. An idea of course occured to her.

"With the howling, when she enters a room, we could have a moon that shows up above her head that says something. Like a slogan or saying or something."

"So we definitely need a way IN to his office to take care of things there, and we can look for his Polyjuice potion to sabotage. Perhaps if he thinks it doesn't work anymore, he'll leave voluntarily," Copernicus nodded at their very GOOD suggestions. Thank Merlin his group had ideas.

"Maybe we can 'convince' someone to give us the password... I'll take charge of that part. In his office, we want to make it clear he isn't welcome and we want him to go... and we can look for the potion. But I want to emphasize that we aren't going to put ourselves under scrutiny. Our roles right now are to be quiet and anonymous, which means... I'm not sure we can use the veela thing yet."

Not to mention he wasn't sure it would work. Part veela wasn't the same as full veela, and surely they wouldn't let dangerous creatures like that into the... what was he saying? Of course they let dangerous creatures into the school.

"I think we need a slogan or something. Some short phrase that expresses our mission and what we want to see happen."

He smiled when she said that she liked his idea to do the spray painting. "Awesome! Can I do it then? I've had practice doing that stuff before." He wasn't going to mention that the office in question was his old Headmasters, but whatever.

Now they just needed to think of ideas for the posters. He scratched his chin thoughtfully.

"Like Lasca said the Polyjuice takes a long time to brew. That plus it could have adverse effects as I don't think anyone has tried the Polyjuice potion in conjunction with Werewolf hair." Reid agreed with the girl. "Although the howling idea sounds good, maybe we could try and find a spell that would make her the only one to hear it though so if she complains it will simply appear as if she is insane, putting her out of commission for awhile. I also think that we should look at her animals and not just her. I don't mean we should actually harm them but maybe transfigure some and leave them for her to find with different warnings on them." Reid suggested, hoping that something he said would be useful.

Alex was nodding as Copernicus spoke, and she found herself sighing inwardly with relief. Thank Goodness, they were not going to use her yet. She shouldn't have said anything about being part Veela. Nothing.. and yet, she had to offer her way of helping. She just wanted to help Copernicus in any way she could.. Quiet and anonymous, she could do that..

"Perhaps, instead of convincing someone to give us the password, we could invent a situation that would need the head master's attention. So we could be called into the office. Maybe one of us could pretend we were a werewolf as well.. something along those lines? Do you think that would work?" She asked as she thought about a motto..

"Kaz might have some," he pointed out, before shrugging. "I've stolen from him before. It ain't difficult."

"Yes, but who cares if it has 'adverse effects'? We're not doing this to make them feel as comfortable as possible," he pointed out. "And if we use the hair from a normal wolf, which is what they become after the wolfsbane potion, it wouldn't BE a werewolf polyjuice potion."

Because deeeeeep down, Jake didn't want Professor Morgan to be a werewolf and be the one to blame.

"As for the howl, my idea was that everyone could hear it, so that they knew exactly what we do to wolf lovers... though maybe... what if instead of just her hut, the howl sounds whenever she goes anywhere near a building? That might keep her out of the school..."



After thinking for a moment, Jake shrugged. "We could write WOLF LOVER across the front of her hut in ink that takes ages to get out."

Brody nodded her head as Copernicus mentioned a motto or slogan. That was a very good idea. "We could like put that slogan on top of a ton of posters and then everyone will know that we mean business." She spoke as she tried to think about a slogan.

Listening as Alex spoke Brody began to shake her head. "Why would one of us want to pretend to be one of them...and surely we'd have had to tell before we could come...for "Everyone's safety" She rolled her eyes, just getting rid of the wolves would make them safe. "But getting called to his office...that is a good idea."

Lyra nodded at the suggestions, although she did like the Polyjuice potion one, Lasca was right about it taking too long. She wanted action as soon as possible!

Her mouth dropped open when Jake said he had stolen from Kazi's office before. "You might have done that before but think about this: Another group is targeting Kazimeriz ...don't you think that he would be even more suspicious and alert when that time comes?" Lyra said with a slight frown on her face. "But i do like the WOLF LOVER messages but it wouldn't be much of a effect if it is just writting across the front of her hut.. What if one student lures the professor away from her hut..saying something had happend with her magical creatures just like what Reid told and that they needed a "experienced hand" to help. Then when she is gone, others could go inside her office and write the message WOLF LOVER all over her walls?"

Alright maybe not that of a splendid idea but that was the best that came up in her mind. "Not that that would be the big plan, it would be sort of a message saying that she is not welcome if she is a werewolf lover"

"As for the wolf howl, i too like the idea that only she can hear it and that others might think she is ready for St Mungo's" Which she is cause honestly , who would befriend a disgusting werewolf? Even the thought about it made Lyra shiver. "Does anyone know a spell like that, cause honestly i don't" Lyra said with out a problem. She was only a second year , she couldn't perform awesome great magic.

"My whole point of those ideas was to make it clear to everyone that we don't toler-" Jake broke off when the girl mentioned St. Mungo's. He turned slowly to her and gave her a wicked-evil glare. The real Jake had stirred deep down inside of him and the boy opened his mouth to say something.

The girl mentioning St. Mungo's in such a derogative way was probably what did it. Jake stirred for a moment and looked around... then he stood up abruptly...

LouAnn nodded when Torin asked if he could spray paint the office. "Of course you can...we call can! This is a group effort, so we'll all participate in whatever it is we decide on," she replied. She glanced over at Tibi and Cam, making sure they knew they were included in this, too. "Alright, so what we have so far is...sneak into his office using Headless Hats and decorate the walls with spray paint and posters. We still need slogans and quotes for the posters and spray paint, though. We also need to come up with a plan to get him out of that office. The last time I was in there, the place was packed!"

Satine's face lit up as Alex continued talking..."Wow, that's a great idea...that's kind of Harry Potter style from way back when...member when they had to use the then Headmaster's fireplace so they lured her out by causing a disturbance or something like that..." she paused because she couldn't remember the whole story right now...

"I really think we should start with that plan...what way could we lure him out of his office....." she paused letting a million scenarios play out in her head...

hmmm... a slogan that represented them...

Satine pulled out a sheet of parchment and her handy red quill and started scribbling down some ideas.

Quote:

It's Time!
Just what the wolf ordered!
Alert today. Alive tomorrow.
Anger is one letter away from Danger
Wolf=Failure

She glanced around..."What do you all think about these?" she said pausing for their ideas and comments and suggestions....she didn't really like any of them but it was a start...
