Amy smiled, hey I'm sure you did really well, she told her in a hopefully soothing tone, and even if you don't theres always next year, she smiled, besides if your not in the team more time for you to spend with your besties ie MEE! she smirked and laughed

Ellie smiled.

"Thanks!" Amy was a nice little girl she was.

And she laughed. "Yeah! I would love to spend more time with my bestie!" She'd still love to make the team, though. Obviously. She could do both, right? She was good at multitasking.

So far Herminny thought her new HOM professor is a nut case but she followed her instructions anyway gearing up in pots and pans and other kitchen utensils and headed outside. She took a seat on her pillow and waited for the professor to elaborate on the rules. Maybe then she would see the professor atleast had a little reason but se was not getting her hopes up.

Trixie followed Nancy in her minimal armour that Nancy and Aiden had persuaded her to wear. And she sat down next to the prefect after Nancy had sat down. She'd said nothing after Aiden revealed it was Patrick and she was nervous to know what the answer truely was. She was NOT looking foward to everyone going against her house. This certainly wouldn't be fun, especially for her. Bearing in mind she had just been injured herself.

Amy grinned back, I can be nice when I feel like it, she said turning her smile into a smirk, as she waited for the teacher to begin to talk, do you think she means a real fight, Amy asked out of the corner of her mouth as she saw the professor looking her way

Ellie nodded.

"Sounds like fun, right?" At least she thought it sounded like fun...

He thought with the face the girl was making she was going to tell him no and to go jump into the lake. He wanted to clap when she said he could paint her face. He dipped a finger in the green frosting and drew straight lines starting from her forehead down to her chin. He figured she still might want to look cute with frosting on her face. He stood back to admire his handy work. "Totally beautiful my lady," he told her honestly.

He fidgeted under the older girl's stare. What was she looking at? She had icing on her face too after all. She had been perfectly fine till he told her his name. And there it was, he was another Greenwood. Coming after his sister Paris. And she hardly left a good taste in other girl's mouth. She just never got along with other girls and Diggy didn't know why. Oh great, he thought. Someone else his sister had made mad while she was here and now he had to deal with the fallout. "Nice to meet you Becca," he was glad that she didn't freak out on him. He wasn't the one that did anything wrong after all.



He made sure he had his shield and hit battle standard and his sword before he hiked up and marched after Professor Lainey. He couldn't think of good battle march to say as he followed her through the castle. They were heading outside. Oh, good place for a battle. They could run and hide and build forts and stuff. "Ohhh Professor are we going to have a fort?" he asked eagerly. "I build really good forts." just in case she wanted someone to help build one.

He talked about all the cool things him, his dad, and his brothers had built in their backyard over the years. He wasn't talking to anyone in particular he was just chatting because this was the best lesson he had ever had and he was giddy and when he was giddy he tended to be a total chatter box.

They arrived outside on the grounds with the sun shining. They walked around the lake and finally arrived at their destination. There were mounds and mounds of pillows. It looked like everyone's personal pillows. How they got out there he didn't know. He looked around for his pillow. Everyone else's pillows was out there. Where was his. He turned over a few pillows looking for his. "Ahhh," he said as he found his pillow. A red and gold pillow just like Iron Man with a Peruvian dragon stitched on the front, and his name on the back. His dad had given it to him right after his sister had died. Diggy loved that pillow more than anything.

He drug his pillow over to William. he looked like he was preparing for battle. Which was good. Diggy needed his lieutenant to be alert. He sat down on his pillow next to William and fell into a battle silence. This was serious business and they needed to concentrate.

Not-so-silently following the professor out to the grounds, Vashti grinned with excitement. This was going to be so fun! Best history class ever without a doubt. Quickly finding her pillow, she plopped down on it, waiting for Professor Lainey to go over the "ground rules."

Um, yeah, sure Amy said doubtfully as she turned to the teacher

Amy didn't sound too up for it.

She nudged her. "It'll be alright. She's no Lafay." she said, nodding to Lainy. She's definitely no Lafay.

Clank.Waddle.

Clank.Waddle.

Clank ..... Waddle.

This was weird.Was that - their pillows? Sarah could distinctly make out the white one with bright yellow daisies she usually had on her bed.Letting go of Miranda's hand, she stood staring at the scene in front of her.Kids in kitchen utensils, sitting on pillows by a lake.

O__________o

Her parents would NEVER believe this one.

Deciding it would be best to follow, Sarah continued her clanking and waddling over towards Miranda, hoping Oliver was somewhere behind.Kicking her pillow closer to her friend, Sarah lowered herself down on her awkwardly bending knees, cursing the brainwave that made her put on the leg guards.Getting herself halfway, Sarah suddenly felt her balance start to falter.This. Was. NOT. Good.

"Mirandaaaaaaaaa," she wailed, tumbling backwards onto her pillow, arms and legs flailing in the air like an upsidedown tortoise, and colander rolling a couple of feet away.So undignified.Whining seemed the best option right then. "A little heeeeeeeeelp pleaseeeeeeeee...." Oh god.Why are we doing this?

Arya would have been skipping if not for all the armor she was wearing, not to mention the big smile plastered on her icing covered face. This was awesome. Who knew History of Magic could be so awesome? Certainly not Arya. She made note to return for the next lesson as she watched a few owls fly by.

She was going to take a pillow beside the crazy/awesome professor when she spoted her Griffindor buddy. Strolling/skipping over to Sabel, she ploped down on the pillow beside him grinning. "Hey Sssabel."

Ivory's grin stretched from ear to ear. This was as awesome as a class could get. War paint, kitchen battle gear, and...PILLOWS!

Almost waddling she spied Arya and Sabel not too far off when suddenly something caught her eye. Her name!!!

Yup that was her's alright. Snatching it up before any other Ivory beat her too it, she clutched it close to her chest and skedaddled over to her friends.

"Hey guys! Isn't this totally awesome!"

Selena took a seat on a pillow. Hehehe. It was soft! Selena felt the urge to go to sleep but sighed. Lessons first, sleep and food after...

Keeley skipped out (as always, despite her super epic armor) to the grounds, and stared around for her pillow. She had painted the cover with fabric markers herself, and it looked rather awesome. Who didn't like adorable Japanese chibi pandas? Weirdos, of course.

She plopped down onto her pillow and beamed at the Professor. That gal was made of awesomeness! She also waved to William, who seemed to be meditating or something. This was gonna be funnn!

Miranda smiled, seeing Sarah scuttle over to sit down next to her. She wiggled her nose again due to the blasted icing on her nose. Guh, she sooooooo wanted to SCRATCH IT!

Lifting her hat up, she scratched her hair, but before she got a chance to put it back on, the wailing coming from her friend made her stiffly turn around to face her. There was a futile attempt to help her not fall backwards, but her arms were sort of a bit full of baking forms. Aawwwwww... Miranda couldn't help but sort of pout for her friend as she watched her laying there like helpless...thing. "Ooooooh, hold on, just-" she couldn't really stand up, and after a couple of more futile attempts, she decided to roll over to her side and then stomach, to push herself up. Stiffly. Like a board. But, finalleeeh!
"I'm heere, I'm here, I'm coming to heelp!" Clanck!CKLANCKYKLANK! "Okaaay, take my hand and I'll try...to...help you stand." Errr. Grabbing Sarah's hand, she tried to pull the girl up.

...

Becca GLARED at the woman. She glared long and hard. Hurt and shame was behind her anger, but no one who caught a glance of her would know that - maybe besides Cela, but even she didn't know of how much Becca was still holding a grudge. Lainey had not ONCE shown any regret for how heartlessly she showed no appreciation for Becca's overwhelmingexcited greeting. Becca had never felt more stupid in her life.


As Lainey led the class to the grounds, Becca stayed close to Dillion and Mariel. Gonna put those Auror skills to the test, she thought bitterly the entire voyage outside. And then... pillows! It was going to be a pillow fight?

Even better.

Becca gazed around for her navy blue pillowcase. It kind of blended in with all the other Ravenclaws who also favored blue. But finally, her eyes fell upon her navy blue pillowcase with black music notes on it - right next to Lainey's rock. Hm. Well. Becca adjusted the baking pans on her arms, pulled the cooking pot down further on her head, and marched over to her pillow, spatula still in hand. She was gonna WIN!

Well wasn't this just peachy? There she was, arms and legs akimbo, staring at the sky, covered in cooking equipement.It was like a hidden camera show and they were all the stars.Only THIS was actually quite funny.Sarah started giggling uncontrollably, and rolling from side to side."HAHAHAHAHEHEHEHE." She could hear Miranda's voice telling her she was coming to help, but the image of her friend trying to get up, which she could see when she twisted her head to the side, was AWESOME.This class was the best ever.

"Oh, hi there, thank you," Sarah gigglesnorted, as Miranda came in her vision above.Take her hand? Okayyyyyy.Wiggling her mittoned fingers in the captains direction, she readied herself to be pulled.This was going to be awkward.How best to push herself, and NOT leave it all to Miranda? Hmmmm.Standing? "Ohhh, urrrr, I think just sitting would be better, don't you? Wasn't that what we were meant to be doing?" Urrrrrr.

Oh dear Merlin.

The madness had gone to her brain.

Just smile.No-one will notice.

Josey followed everyone outside. She saw many pillows, and was confused as to why they didn't just sit on the grass. But she supposed that none of the class had been normal so far, so why start then? She shrugged and sat down on a pillow.

Blinking, Sabel turned his grin up and over to the side, watching as Arya sat down beside him. "Hey!"

With a bit of awkward movement of cookie sheets and other kitchenware, he managed to give his friend a hug before pulling back. "This, has to be the best class ever." He made a small adjustment to the pasta strainer on his head. "I wonder which battle we are going to be reinacting. As far as I can remember there are none in which the participants had to turn to kitchenware to sheild themselves from harm." Though that wasn't to say some of them shouldn't have.

Sidney marches with Lainey out to the grounds. She feels so foolish walking out with a pot on her head, two cookie sheets cover her front and back and oh yeah her pot lid/shield. Sidney is ready for battle. Okay she's hoping this is just all a lark. The last things Sidney wants to do is fight her fellow students. She notices pillows sitting on the grounds lots of them. Some are plain, some are in colors, some even have little unicorns flying around just like hers. "Wait a merlin's beard minute! That is my pillow!" Sidney runs over to where she sees her pillow sitting on the ground. She picks it up and hugs it tight to her. Sidney then checks and make sure there are no grass stains on it. Lainey will pay dearly if there are. Stealing her pillow and then leaving it on the grass. She had no rigth to be in Hufflepuff House. Lainey's not our head of house. Shame on her. Sidney walks over to a rock and tries to sit down. Her body will bend, but the cookie sheets attached to robes stay rigid. "Maybe I'd better stand," Sidney says blushing.

ClanKiTTY-ClanCK!
Huuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuugh! Miranda tugged at Sarah's arm, but they were both wearing mittens, so it was kinnda hard. Y'know?
But when she started to laugh, the Captain found herself not being able to hold her laughter back either. "PPffffffffffttttttttttt AHAHAHAHAAAAaa!" Tears were forming in her eyes, and she had to put a hand to her stomach before trying to grab Sarah's hand with both. "Okay....okaaayyyyyyy-iiii!" More laughter and high pitched giggles. Tug tug tug. "I think...you might have to roll over." SNORRRT! "I can....push you to the side...hahahaha!" Good idea, yes? Drying her eyes on the oven mitt, she waited to hear what Sarah had to say on the idea.

Sitting? Oh, yeah! Miranda turned back to her Gilderoy Lockhart pillow, that was now upside down (seriously, she had NO idea who's that was...she didn't actually know she was supposed to sit on her OWN pillow. Heh.) and it twitched - as if Gilderoy was trying to make the pillow turn upwards again. Creepy.
"Okaay, sitting position." Breaaathe. Allright, time to catch yer breath. Pheeeeeeeew. "Wait, maybe I can push you up." She plopped down to Sarah's side and tried to push her into a sitting position. "Yaarrr, we can doo iiiiiiiiiit!"

HEHEhehEHeheHehEHEheeeeeee!

Abbi took in the sight of the pillows not sure what to do until everyone sat on them, she walked around to pick a comfy one to sit on and making sure there's one to her side for Gold... and "that's my pillow?" she raised her brow, "Heh, I doubt that, it's probably one just like it" she nodded to herself and sat on it, at least this one would be comfortable only because it had small pirate drawings. Just like her own up in the dorms.

Nikki followed the professor outside to the school grounds, her armor clanging very few seconds. When they arrived outside she spotted some colorful objects laying to the grass, and with a closer look she noticed that they were pillows...pillows that they all slept on! WHAT! Why was her pillow on the ground? The icky bug infested ground!!!! Looking around she spotted her dark purple pillow and sighed. At least it wasn't her neon purple pillow. She loved that thing. This pillow would just have be burned at the end of the day.

Marie followed Destiny out to the grounds... like she had a choice since they were still tied together. Maybe if they really were going to battle they could use their invisible binding to their advantage. The others obviously wouldn't know it was there, they would have the element of surprise on thier side.

Once outside she spotted all the pillows... which she did not like. She did not want her pillow getting dirty. Finding her Slytherin color pillow she picked it up off the ground. She would not be sitting on it, she would just hold it... off the ground.

Finding Carter sitting on his pillow she started to walk over to him, only to be stopped about a foot away from him. Looking back at Destiny she gave a hard tug on the rope making the girl fall off her pillow. Now she was able to sit next to Carter. She plopped down next to him and put her pillow on her lap. "I'm not going to sit on my pillow and let it get all dirty. Nope, not gonna happen." She looked over at the professor then back at Carter. "Do you think she will really make us battle each other?"
