"Never?", said Ginny to her with her mouth wide open. "If I were you, I would tell someone. It's for your own good", she explained to Courtney.

"Do you know why they didn't keep Wools Orphanage?", she asked curiously, as always. Ginny looked up at Court. "Lots of Slytherins seem to be good at that", she answered her, nodding.

Courtney shook her head. Nope, never" she replied. "I was just scared to do it" she replied.

Court shrugged. She honestly had no idea. "If I knew that I'd have tried to get it reopened. Ok I wouldn't but I honestly have no clue whu it was closed" she repled. She giggled. "Part of the trait"

"You shouldn't be scared of telling anyone. It's not your fault", she told her with a smile.

Ginny gasped then looked up. "Maybe it's because of him. That's the only reason I can think of. It could bring back bad memories", she said to Courtney. Then she giggled with her. "Always", she added.

Court shrugged. "I'll live" she replied. Well she would.

Court smirked. Maybe that was why. "Probably is"

Ohmigod the tree was evil. Rose stood a good 10 metres away and GAWPED at it, flailing limbs and all. It was absolutely petrifying. Was it gonna attack her?! Uh-oh. She didn't want to be attacked by the tree; she was sure it would hurt. A lot. And it would be a really embarrassing way to die, you know? People would be like, oh, how did it happen? and then it'd be all 'she was attacked by a tree'. And that was just not cool. So, she stayed clear of all the evil branches and sat down underneath a smaller, safer looking tree. well, she hoped it was safe. It wasn't moving, afterall, so yeah.

Selena ran around, flailing her arms as she saw Rose. "LILY-ROSE!! YOU ARE SOOOOOOO DEAD!!!!" Selena said as she saw her cousin and tackle hugged her to the floor. Oooh. Fun. Hehehe. "Hiya~" she chirped, once again sitting on top of her cousin. Ouch, of all the places Rose had to go, she chose a place that had a tree that was out to kill people. Smart, Rose, really smart. Pffft. She doubted that it was a good thing they were here. It's alright though, Rose could be a good human shield... hehehe.

Rose looked uo in shock and mild annoyance as someone called her by her full name. Seriously, just pick one. No-one had two names, it was just weird. But then she laugheed as she realised it was Sel, and that she had probably done it on purpose. She rolled her eyes and then squealed as she was tackled, immediately putting her hands behind her head to cushion the blow. But still... ouchies. That hurt. She gently shoved her cousin off and sat up again, smirking as she brushed the grass offf her jeans. 'May I ask why I'm dead?' she asked, laughing. It was a good question, because as far as she knew she hadn't done anything to upset her cousin. Hmm....

Selena grinned as she saw her cousin's annoyed expression. Hehehe. That's what she got for having two names. Psssssh. "Because I said so and you decided to sit next to the death trap so kinda your fault," Selena said as she was pushed off. Ouchies. 'Thanks Lily-Rose, what did I ever do to you?' she thought to herself as she laughed anyways. Because she could and felt like it. Hmph. Selena pushed Rose back to the ground. Hah! In your face. Hehehehehe.

Right. Next time Rose wanted to talk to Sel, she'd make sure she picked somewhere quiet, like the Library. Then she'd hopefully NOT get tackled, you know? Though she doubted that'd work, since Sel would probably just do it anyway. Pssht. 'Fine. But actually I'm far enough away from the Tree of Doom to be pretty safe. I think.' she informed her cousin with a smirk. SO THERE. IN YOUR FACE. Rose looked over at the tree for a moment, which she realised was a bad idea when she ended up on the floor again. Grrr. She straightened up and stareed at her cousin. Her evil, evil, cousin.

Grinning back innocently she gave her cousin a little wave of her fingers. Hehehe, pretending to be innocent was easy. Wasn't that how they got away with doing things wrong when they were like... six? hehehe. "Pfffft, that's what you think, but y'know anything can happen~" she said with a smirk. Besides, Sel knew for a fact that thing was out to kill her. Then again, she thought most things were out to kill her. "Oh, don't give me that look, you know you love me," Selena laughed, resisting the urge to push cousin back down...

Pft. Sel wasn't fooling Rose at all with her innocence act. Nope. She knew Sel had pushed her... now there was just the small matter fo REVENGE. Muaha. 'Yeah, yeah. I think we're far enough. Besides, the tree doesn't look particularly angry... yet, anyway.' she said with a smirk. Perhaps she could anger it? That would totally freak Sel out. Yeaahhh. She continued to stare at Sel, and then put on an innocent face, mirroring the one her cousin had made just a moment ago. 'Look at you like what?' she said, all sweet-like.

"For now," she reminded her cousin. Because who knew, one of them might just start running towards it like there was no tomorrow. Then who's fault would it be? Not hers. Selena widened her purple eyes and blinked them innocently. Evil-innocent faces!! hehehhe. "Like you wanna kill me~" Selena said way too happily for someone who was probably going to be tackled by their own family. Violent... people... Selena decided... she would probably run in like, ten seconds. Lily-Rose was kinda scaring her... hehehe.

"You don't have to think about it badly", she told Courtney with a smile.

She thought now it was time to change the topic. "By the way. Do you know that I'm leaving Hogwarts at the end of the term?", she asked her.

Courtney's eyes widened swiftly. Whoa! Did she just say what she thought she said? Noooooooo!! "What? Why?" she asked.

A distant figured walked the fairways near the great willow. Looking akin to a dark shadow, as night fell, black as velvet, only to be pierced by a few distant stars, flickering through the thick Isle fog.

He gazed into the fog as it enveloped him, and he disappeared from the sight of his classmates, on a quest, a journey alone...into shadow.

Ginny saw Courtney's eyes widen. She gulped two times and then opened her mouth. "I'm going back to Australia for a few years because of my Father's job", she answered her. "My half-brother is coming to Hogwarts, though. He's from Australia to but he's been to another school in England at the moment. He's going to be in his second year when he starts here", she told Court.

Courtney listened to what Ginny told her. But at least she'd probably get a head start with her half-brother. If Ginny had ever mentioned her or Bradin. Maybe she hadn't. "Well I hope you have a good time in Oz"

Ginny smiled at Courtney. She didn't seem that curious. Though, it looked like Cody would already have a friend, since he kind of knew one of Ginny's other friend. "Thank you. The term has almost ended here", she said.

Courtney didn't want the term to end so fast but it was. "I know it is. You'll come back over to visit though, right?"

Aleksandra paused at the tree that swayed at its own free will. Slight amusement in her hazel eyes. With the many fire places in the castle, it seemed warmer to her than it did outside. So the young woman decided to take a stroll out on the grounds for a bit of cooler air.

The only good that came of this stroll, so far, was that she got to wear her light blue sleeveless dress.

Defiantly was a good thing she had packed for warmer weather.

Tucking a loose strand of hair behind her ear, she tilted her head to the side and watched as the tree flicked away a bird that had flown to close. Wondering how it would react to a child...

Timothy stumbled out of the fog, he had taken a nice stroll through the growing darkness, and had returned in a rush. Perhaps scared, perhaps not. He walked by the large willow that seemed to be devouring a small bird. That brought a grin to Timothy's lips. A freakish smile stretching over his sallow face.

He gathered his robes about him, and unsheathed his wand. In the field he began to practise the moves recently taught in the dark arts. Making sure not to let off a spell, in case a friend or enemy was destroyed by an errant accidental spell.

The darkness continued to fall as he spun and fought through the thick fog, fighting invisible dragons, or perhaps his evil countrymen.
