This looked fun.. though Ira didn't really understand how it was played. She figured she would get that while playing the game itself. So she looked for her Personal day number. It was 6. So she tagged herself as number 6 and went to the side and touched the desk, to first observe what was going on..

Alyssa noticed that Oakey was touching the desk like they had been instructed to. He was just standing by it. So she quickly ran up to him and said "TAG" then quickly ran back to touch her desk

Right then, Ira heard someone call for number 6. She figured it would be easier to be with a partner. So she left her desk and went to towards the girl and said, "Hey! I'm six!"

Zhenya quickly grabbed on to the table, seeing the game had started already. No number ones.... not yet.

Alyssa smiled as Ira came over to join her. "GREAT!! Quick get over here and touch the desk before someone tags you." Alyssa called out to her.

Why were they forming groups? Was it necessary that a certain number would dominate the others? She first heard it from Kurumi, then from Alyssa, who incidentally was also number six. She looked around. She really did not get the point of forming teams.

And because of that, she walked over to where Kurumi was..And, "TAG!" Beezus mumbled.

Zhenya quickly dashed over to where the six was standing, touched her saying "TAG" and dashed back to her desk before she could be tagged

And there was Zhenya standing, with number one tagged. She could be Ira's target.. But no, she could not be, she was still touching the desk. So who else? Ira looked around and she herself went and stood midway between the desks and the center. After all, she could run back to the desks if needed, right?

Oops! But by then, Zhenya had already tagged her! So now she was number 1! Okay-dokay!

"Butterfly, hey," she smiled at the younger Slytherin she had helped earlier in class. Must have been fate, right? It was all in the numbers. "Great, now let's just wait here and see if anyone else..."

"Oakey!" Kurumi chirped. "Brilliant. I am glad that we are finally on the same team." Although, Professor Hadley hadn't exactly said that they were teams, but it was sort of implied.

"Alright, so, we are all fives and I am sure that there are others, but just hanging out here isn't accomplishing anything, so we ought to target the same sort of people together. Any of us get tagged, we should try to tag each other back so we go back to being fives." It was simple math really. Kurumi looked back out at the classroom. Now...who was looking lonely. "So, who should we try to get to join our little five family?" Alliterations, they were lovely things.

And really, that was their cue to go ahead and start chasing people. Standing around was boring. Hehe.

Zhenya was glad to see there was another red one! She smiled, not even sorry she had tagged her because she had a fellow-red number team mate :D

Alyssa quickly ran to Ira and said "TAG. RUN BACK HERE" before quickly running back to their safe zone and touching the desk.

Kurumi!!
 

So, Ira began doing her calculations.. her personal month number was 7 ansd 7+3 equals 10 which equals 1! So there, she had got her answer. So the date should be 3rd october!

Now she looked around for more targets. She was being a bit slow and needed to quickenup! She first grabbed a desk and looked around. Aah! There was Kurumi. Ira ran towards her and tagged Kurumi as number 1!

"Thanks Alyssa! I'm again number 6!" Saying so, Ira went back and touched the desk besides Alyssa. Then again she did the quick calculations and it came out to be.. oh! how silly of her! It would be todays date itself! that is 17th!

Alyssa quickly ran out and managed to get near enough to Butterfly to "TAG" her before running back and touching her desk.

OH! Her bad. Kurumi has her hand on the desk.

Beezus walked around the middle of the classroom. Would someone please play with her? She was tired of standing and just watching her classmates on either sides seemingly gluing their hands to their desks.

"Someone tag me? PLEASE?" the eaglet said. Her team mates won't be happy. But she just wanted to enjoy the activity!

Zhenya stood at the desk, touching it. She was worried that she wouldn't be able to do the math, so until she got her head around the formula and numbers to work out the alternate date, she would be safe. She began thinking numbers in her head

*points to rules*

Nodding to her fellow fives, Kurumi stepped further away from her desk when...
BAM!

Beezus came out of no where and tagged her. What number was the little Claw again? A six? Scratching her head, Kurumi thought for a moment. Okay, so her Personal Day Number was 5 and now she needed to think of a date that would give her a Personal Day Number of 6. Her Personal Month Number was 6, so....
"October 18," Kurumi said outloud.

Just as Kurumi had finished calculating for her new number, another set of hands tagged her. MERLIN, what now?!

Seeing that Ira was a 1 at the time of the tag, Kurumi set to rubbing her temples again as she thought.

"October 13," Kurumi said outloud, becoming a 1 now. 13 turned into 4, and then when you added 4 to her Personal Month Number of 6 you got 10 which became one.

Done deal.

Walking things off a bit, Kurumi approached Beezus. "Tag!" she smiled. "Just returning the favor."

Come and get me. I want to practice my calculations
 

Alyssa decided to venture out. 'Hey the aim of the game was not to remain the same number for the entire game but to actually learn how to calculate other personal numbers' Alyssa thought to herself. So she stood out in the open and dared for someone to tag her.

Seeing Kurumi again in the middle tagging Beezus, Ira rushed again and tagged her with number 6! "You number 6 now!" Ira said!

Zhenya really had no idea how to calculate the numbers... she was a bit lost but thought she could always get help. She let go of the desk and walked slowly towards the other side of the class to the safe zone. But she was not quite there

http://i1226.photobucket.com/albums/...arletJ/one.jpg

At last! Someone tagged her. And it was Kurumi. Beezus grinned. Funny how the lioness Prefect started off with number 5 and was now.."Er--what number are you again?" She tilted her head. "OH! One.." Now, what to date in October would she need so she can be a number 1? "Hmmm...my Personal Day Number is 6..so 4!" She nodded. "Six plus four equals ten..And when reducing that, I'd get 1 plus 0..And that would total to one!" Lucky!

And there Ira found another victim. She crept up behind Zhenya and tagged her! "Number six now!" she called out!

And then herself went towards the desks to be in the safe zone again!

And another! Woo hoo! Consecutive two victims! Good!

Beezus was still busy doing calculations when Ira went towards her and tagged her as number 6! "We're both number 6 now!" she said, "Lets find others!" Saying so, Ira ran back to the sidelines and touched the desks again!

Okay, she was now number 6... uhhohh - her eyes widened as she began to attempt the formula...

Seeing Zhenya lost in the calculations, Ira called out to her, "Hey ! Come on and touch the desks! Or someone else will again tag you! And you'll have to redo your calculation!"

Zhenya quickly dashed towards the desk, which was near a few people. She still had no idea how to work out what date it would be to give her a date...
