Alyssa waited as the Niffler slowly reach her side. Once it's did, she kneeled down on the ground, pointed the wand at it and said the Befriending Charm,"Malin Calin" petting it on the head. "Yes you are good Niffler aren't you? Here why don't you join your friend inside my pocket,"Alyssa told the Niffler tucking it safely into her pocket together with the other Niffler.

Then she felt a tug on her arm and realized to her dismay that poor Oakey was still kneeling on the ground next to her. She didn't want to hurt him but she knew that she had to in order to release him from the spell. "Please don't hate me Oakey. Believe me this is going to hurt me more than it hurts you." Alyssa slapped Oakey right across the face and waited to see whether the slap worked.

Kurumi continued to cling to Daichi even as he began to drag her away from Emrys...who had been talking? What? Kurumi was too lost in Daichi's BEAUTIFUL chocolate eyes... August was talking to her too...but whatever, she was too lost in a daze to really be listening.

The niffler on Kurumi's shoulder continued to coo and rub itself against her cheek while one more scurried around her foot. Ug...it was so annoying and distracted her from DAICHI! Bending down, Kurumi stroked the head of the little creature, which solidified the enchantment. The niffler then scurried up her leg and wrapped itself around her neck like a furry scarf. "Oh, hello there...are you here to get lost in Daichi's BEAUTIFUL eyes as well?" she asked her new companion. "He is dreeeeeeeeeeeeeeamy..."

But then August was talking again. Ug. Would he stop? Daichi was trying to say something to her and she was missing the voice of an angel! "What do you mean too tight? Does this mean I need to be closer so I do not have to grab so hard?!" Of course it did! So she did...and giggled while she did.

teheheheehehehe

OOC: I thought I had befriended #5 here, but I edited out the second niffler from this post to keep with what you have to to keep things consistent. No human attracting & nifflers in the same post maybe?

As she was still searching for the perfect way of getting rid of Daichi, Gwendolyn kept looking around. Wait- where was her niffler? ‘I was sure it was…’, she mumbled as she turned her head to see where it went. What???, the young Ravenclaw thought, finding her niffler entranced by someone else. Ugh. Niffler stealer, the third year thought, still frowning at the Gryffindor. Hmph.

Maybe I could get it back…, Gwen told herself, willing to walk over there. But she couldn’t. Getting rid of Daichi was harder than she’d expected. Great. This is just great, the girl tried desperately not to roll her eyes. Anyhow- when she had decided to go get her niffler back, it was too late. The creature had already been befriended. Nice going.




It was hard enough to simply get away, but now some Hufflepuff girl came along and started staring at Daichi.‘Hmm?’, she looked back at the Puff, still puzzled of everything that was going on. Humm. And the other girl definitely looked coldly at her. Was she going to hit her? Gwen seriously had no idea. Think… think…, she kept telling herself.

Oh. And there was Kurumi too.

O_____________________o

Get lost in his eyes? Seriously… I need to get out of here, the young Ravenclaw told herself. ‘I think it is just you…’, she finally answered to Kurumi, and in that moment- BAM- an idea crossed her mind. Well, it was quite annoying to do that, but it was her only option. ‘Here’ she passed Daichi’s hand in Kurumi’s. There. She was FREE! Oh. And she’ll definitely apologize afterwords.

Now what?, the third year asked herself. Oh. Right… walk away. Humm. That probably wasn’t the best idea, but meh… She couldn’t have thought everything through.

Gwen seemed to be the silent type. Daichi liked that! He loved to talk so he would do the talking on their date! He scooted a little closer to her while still holding her hands. And she smelled nice... like flowers and sunshine all though he had no idea how sunshine smelled like.

From the look of her eyes, Daichi knew she was battling to say something and he thought it was the MOST ADORABLE THING he had EVER SEEN. Even MORE adorable than a DUCK! "You're so cute when your shy beautiful" he winked at her and wanted to get closer when...





His other arm was tucked away and he was now standing in the middle of Three girls. Kurumi, Gwen and now this Hufflepuff...Glenn was her name right? From what he had heard in classes. Turning to look at both Kurumi and Glenn he gave both of them a glare. A glare he was normally not capable off. "Don't!" he said loudly, eyeing both of them and at the same time as Glenn was pushing a stray of hair out of her face. "Touch..me!" And tried to shake their hands off of him. "Gwen is my only princess and i love HER" And to prove his point he tried to snuggle closer to HIS PRINCESS. "Right?"



So, he did not hear from Glenn... maybe he had scared her? Good! Because Gwen was his life. Not that hufflepuff. But it seemed that Kurumi just didn't give up and he couldn't help but blush slightly as he heard her comment about his eyes.

EEERR...awkward!

It became even more awkward when she misinterprented his words on her painful grip to get even more closer to him. "K-Kurumi i'm sorry about this but..."

SLAP!

He had slapped her on the arm.



Feeling sorry about slapping his friend but it was the only way to get rid of her and get back to his own angel. The angel with few words. Oh Merlin he was in love. If this was how love felt like then it was perfect! NO, scratch that. Gwen was PUUUURFECT. Until she shoved him away towards Kurumi!

Well it was better to get shoved away to Kurumi he had just slapped than Glenn. The Slytherin quickly mumbled an apology to the Prefect before sprinting back to the his princess. "LOOOOVE COME BACK PLEASE?! YOU STILL HAVEN'T MET MY FAMILY AT THE DUCK POND~"

Kurumi sort of just stared at the Ravenclaw. Had she been talking to her? No. Did she really care about her opinion? No. So then why was the girl even here? CLEARLY to just bother her and be an obstacle in the way between her and Daichi. Not that it matter. Kurumi had her amazing invisible rubber duck collection over in that corner that he was just going to loooooove.

But the, the girl did something smart. Very smart. Daichi's hand now in her own, Kurumi beamed. This was perfect. The perfect moment. Now she could play with his almost perfect locks all day...

Closing her eyes, Kurumi puckered up and leaned in...
Eyes closed, Kurumi missed everything that Daichi was directing towards her and came to the conclusion in her head that he was directing it to everyone else. Good. He had come to his senses.

Or not.

The moment Daichi slapped her arm, the Gryffindor's eyes shot open and she saw just how close she had come to Daichi. What made things even worse was when she realized that she was puckering her lips. Hands instantly went to her mouth to cover it and her face went beat read. But that wasn't all, her hair also turned an instant pale orange on the spot because of embarrassment.

Merlin...what had just happened. No, she remembered everything, at least she thought she did. But right now she was really hoping that this was just some sort of bad dream. She didn't say anything. Instead she just stood there feeling almost as awkward as she had felt that one day at the lake.

Emrys' face fell as Kurumi simply walked away, leaving him with one niffler in his hood and another held out in his hands.

"Kurumi, wait," he called after her, still wondering what exactly she had meant about his hair. Niffler outstretched, he chased after her. "You can have my nifflers, Kurumi! You can have them!"

He stopped short, though, when he saw her get slapped and her hair turn colors. Her... hair turned colors? Blinking, he paused and considered it a moment, before hustling over again and sliding right up next to her, niffler still hanging from his hands.

"You walked away really fast, Kurumi," he said with a sadness in his voice. He dropped his voice as he pet the niffler in his hands - the one in his hood now scratching at his back. "What's wrong with my hair?"

Glenn was shaken off Daichi and stop staring at him a second as she watched Daichi slap Kurumi, obviously he didn't like her as much as her. Sweet. Less competition.

"I think you must be confused," Glenn said, grabbing his arm this time, "My name's Glenn and I'm over here." Even though as she said this, she still felt somewhere that he was really talking to that other girl... Gwen was it?

Her face fell.

The badger glared at the Gwen girl and an unnatural spurt of jealousy welled up in her. Glenn turned her back on Gwen and faced Daichi whose arm she had let go off. Her blue eyes welled up with tears and she swung her hand at him.

SLAP!

She had struck him hard across the face. "There." She said, "Do you notice me now?" She smiled smugly at Gwen and clung onto his arm again.

O_______o

She seriously couldn’t take it for much longer. ’Shy?’ She was not shy… just slightly terrified. Oh. And a way of calling her even worse than Gwennie- 'Princess'. Ugh. Nothing was as bad as this. Well, only her middle name, but it was a good thing NO ONE knew what that was. Phew. Imagine how much Ariadne would mock her if she knew. Oh my.

Whaaaa--- Did Daichi just slap Kurumi? Does that mean she will be fine now?, Gwendolyn asked herself and looked back at the Gryffindor Prefect. Her hair was… orange. Was she some sort of Metamorphmagus? ‘Blimey!’, the third year couldn’t help saying. Wait- is she even a Metamorphmagus? Or is it some side effect from something else? Can she really change anything about her appearance? And that’s your biggest problem right now?, Gwen asked herself.

She then interrupted her thoughts in time to draw her attention towards the puff. You can take him. Please do, the young Ravenclaw wanted to say, but managed to control herself. Oh. And another slap followed. That seemed to be the solution to everything. Psh.

As Daichi started telling something to Glenn… again calling Gwen ‘princess’ UGH ,the third year looked back at Kurumi, with a puzzled ‘HELP ME’-like facial expression. Seriously. That girl always knew what to do.

She then started walking away, as it seemed to be the only reasonable option she had. Only… it was no use. The Slytherin kept following her. ‘Daichi!’, she said on the coldest tone she could. Stop it. Gaaah. Stupid enchantments, the girl thought, as she raised her hand, ready to slap him. Only- with her strength and power of a two-year old - what was intended to be a slap was more like a friendly pat on the shoulder. Nice going, Gwendolyn, she ‘congratulated’ herself.

The moment Daichi had slapped Kurumi's arm he was glad to have done it at this moment because her puckering her lips ..veeeery close to his was... Yeah he was happy he had slapped her O_____o Not because Kurumi was about to kiss him. hey she is hot but because of an angry boyfriend named Jonathan making his life miserable if he found out...

Even in his love struck vision on Gwen he still felt embarrassed about the situation with Kurumi and he eyed her wide eyed. He was about to say something when her hair turned pale orange and he gasped in shock. "Y-You're a metamorphme--" But then his attention went back to thinking about his little princess and he smiled a little stupidly.

Daichi had turned around to follow his princess Gwen when he was hold back for the nth time that lesson. Honestly! Why weren't they leaving him and Gwen alone?! The Slytherin turned his head and looked down at the Hufflepuff just in time to feel a SLAP across his face.

His head whipped to the side and he automatically held his hand on his cheek. If he had a mirror he would surely find out it was red. "I-i..what.." He mumbled confused as he stared at Glenn. "Why'd you slap me?" he asked , confusion written on his features as she continued to clung onto him.


He didn't get what was going on or why there were thoughts about Princesses in his head. Until he turned to look at the Ravenclaw. Gwen. His eyes widened and he held both of his hands on his mouth. Had he really done and said all the things that he thought he had done? Oh please let that NOT be true!

"G-gwen!" That's right. Gwen, not Gwennie or Princess. Just Gwen now. "I'm sorry.. i didn't mean to.. it's just, that spell and i.." He trailed of as she gave him a pat on the shoulder. It did not hurt unlike Glenn slapping his face but the moment she patted his shoulder he felt the enchantment being lifted even more.

He needed to get out of here. And fast. But they were in class and it would be rude. Blushing madly like he had never blushed before, the Slytherin quickly walked away towards a corner and sat down on the ground. Knees up to his chest and holding his fingers in his ears and closed his eyes tightly shut. Hopefully this would prevend the enchantment from working on someone else.

He didn't have his Niffler anymore because it was stolen from another student and every other one was already taken. HEWASALONE! and hopefully that Hufflepuff girl didn't follow him.

The fat lady in pink raised her arms and clapped twice to get everyone's attention, when that didn't work she climbed on top of her table and jumped up and down while waving her arm. "ATTENTION PLEASE" She shouted. When all eyes were on her, she climbed own, readjusted herself and spoke. "All the nifflers have been befriended and let's see..." She counted how many nifflers each student had as she scratched her chin. [b]"WE HAVE A WINNER!" She hurried towards the Gryffindor perfect and gestured to her. "KARLA HONKERBURNY!!" She tucked her wand under her arm and clapped for the girl. "Very well done, Karmen! Five points for your outstanding charmwork!" She gave the girl a cheek pinch and a tap on the head before moving to the front of the class again.

"Ahem, this concludes this lovely and fabulous class on Entrancing Enchantments..." Now, go away. "Oh, wait, I have to give you something for homework... Blurg... Homework. You would think that by 2070-- What year are we on? Doesn't matter. You would think that by now enough people would have protested against homework to make it go away, but nooooo. Trust me, it's very unpleasant for teachers too, but it must be done." She waved her wand and the homework assignment appeared on the board.

"Ta da!" She announced gesturing to the board. "Now everyone is free to go! Have a super-duper fabulous day! If you have any last question, feel free to ask, if not, it was a pleasure having you all here." She stopped here for a ceremonious giggle. "Toodledoo, little darlings!"

Ella was kind of sad that the seminar was over, especially since it was quite comical watching her classmates drool all over eachother. She looked cheerfully down at the two nifflers watching her expectantly and gave them each a gentle pat before releasing herself from the attracting spell. Then, she headed over to her desk and copied the homework down.

After gathering her belongings, Ella sought out Madam Poppy. "Thanks for a really interesting lesson, Madam!" Ella said, stiffling her own giggles. "It was a lot of fun!" And it was, almost as fun to do as it was to watch.

Kurumi eyed Emrys' and his nontouchable hair for a moment, glancing at the nifflers in his hands. The idea was...tempting. More nifflers for her to snuggle with and have coo in her ear. But...they weren't DAICHI's nifflers and she really wanted DAICHI's nifflers. Hey! Maybe Emrys could give them to Daichi and then Daichi could give him to her so that way it would be like she had Daichi's nifflers? It sounded like a BRILLIANT idea!

These thoughts didn't keep her from walking, however, and she continued to do so as she clung to Daichi and rolled her eyes as the Ravenclaw continued to follow her. She thought Ravenclaws were smart.

"YOUR hair just can't compare to Daichi's," she sighed, pointing to the Slytherin's GORGEOUS locks. Just look at the way they glistened, more beautiful than Veela hair. Maybe even more touchable than Lewis' hair!
Kurumi continued to stand there frozen in utter HUMILIATION about what had just happened. She had...tried to kiss Daichi. She felt sick to her stomach and her face showed it. She didn't care that she had been under an enchantment, she had almost done the unthinkable and her eyes sort of started to water at the thought of betrayal. Jonathan, were he here, would probably laugh about it and tell her not to worry...

Merlin did she wish he was here...

And then Daichi was pointing at her and saying something. "Huh?" she asked, following his gaze and... "KYAAA!" Kurumi immediately threw her hood over her head and tried to hide her face. This was almost more embarrassing than almost kissing Daichi. Now everyone, including Madam Pink, was going to know she was a freak...was different.

Pulling the hood of her robes tighter around her face, Kurumi shuffled her feet away from Daichi when she bumped into Emrys who still looked like a love struck puppy. "Um...Emrys'...I'm really sorry about this," she said with an apologetic bow before she gently slapped him on the cheek.

Kurumi...my name is Kurumi...

But before Kurumi could say anything she found that her cheeks were being pinched by the woman and she momentarily feared for her life. Kurumi stood very still through the whole ordeal and only breathed again once her cheeks had been released. "Ow...." she whimpered as she rubbed her cheeks.

Kurumi watched as the homework appeared on the board and scoffed. Really? They had to go tell the Headmaster about how wonderful the woman was? The prefect cocked her head to the side and then glanced over at the woman. Sure, the lesson had been useful and she had learned a lot...but she thought it was a bit much to demand praise from students. It was very...Lord Borr-like, which made her wrinkle her nose.

Kurumi wrote down everything and then gathered her things. Last minute questions? Not really, Kurumi just wanted to get OUT of there before her cheeks were pinched again. So, after offering the woman a polite bow, Kurumi exited the classroom.

Alyssa quickly took the Nifflers out of her pocket and said,"Shoo" to break the spell. Then she picked up her backpack and was about to make her way to Madam Poppy when saw that another homework assignment that Madam Poppy had written on the board. 'Not another one?'Alyssa sighed before taking out her quill and copying down the assignment in her journal.

Once she was done, she packed up her things and walked back up to Madam Poppy."Thank you for a very interesting class, Madam Poppy." Alyssa smiled before heading out the door and leaving the classroom.

What MORE NIFFLERS! This was a big NO! Oakey will noty let Alyssa be taken from him by some small rat-like creature, not in a million year! SHOO! SHOO! BEGONE WITH YOU FILTHY VERMIN! AS I TOLD THIS JELOUS NIFFLER HERE Oakey jabbed his finger in the direction of the Nifler still in Alyssa's pocket. SHE AND I ARE GETTING MAR...

SLAP!


Oakey felt the firm press of a palm come across his face at light speeds. He turned to see that Alyssa was holding her hand out. Before Oakey could say anything, Alyssa packed her things and returned her Nifflers. He watched her leave the class room, then pressed his hand against his hurting cheek that had formed a red hand print on it. It hurt and he deserved it even if he was under a spell.

Gathering his things he kept his face hidden and ducked away to the door, Thank you for the lesson today. He said quickly. Then darted out of the class.

Alyssa was about to leave the room when she remembered that she hadn't apologized to Oakey for slapping him. So she waited at the entrance to the class while she saw him pack his things, thank Madam Poppy and head her way. She stepped in front of him. "Uh Oakey, I'm so sorry about what happened in class. I really didn't mean for my spell to attract you and I especially didn't mean to slap you. I hope that you're okay."Alyssa blushed as she apologized to him

Glenn followed Daichi across the room and clung onto his arm once more. She snuggled into him and said brightly, "Because I love you and that girl-" Glare at Gwen, "well- you were getting confused."

She gave an angelic smile.
