Minerva giggled behind the tree. She looked around to see if they had followed her. She hurried and got a little more snow, it was just the first snow of the season so there wasn't a ton, but enough for a little yearly fight. She turned and jumped from behind the tree throwing one at each of them and taking off again laughing. "Seriously your going to let a girl beat you at a snowball fight!"

Justin saw her run out from behind the tree and stalked her from where she couldn't see him.... Then he full on ambushed her with two snowballs... right in the back.....

Harvey was still just wondering if he should join in and have a bit of fun with his two bestfriends, so he look round towards where Minnie was hiding

SPLAT!!

He got hit on the chest a few inches higher and she would have got his face, hiding again laughing she taunted them. Oh Harvey wasnt going to take that. He quickly made a few snowballs while being on the watch for anymore that were being aimed his way. He looked up to see that Justin had made two and was heading straight for her, before he knew he saw Justin throw his two right at her. Harvey tried hard to hold in his laughter as he crept upto her hiding place very slowly so that she wouldnt know that he was there and then he too would hit her with his two snowballs.

Justin watched as Harvey snuck up on her two and was readying his to throw at her as wellll.....Justin began to laugh hysterically....

Poor helpless Minerva was behind the tree when she saw Justin coming. She ran, but not fast enough and got hit with two snowballs. She ducked down to get more snow and didn't see Harvey coming up behind her. She looked just in time to see them coming at her head. She moved her face and the snow hit her hair. With wet purple hair she jumped up pulling out her wand. She flicked it and sent snow flying at both of them. They were really trying to gang up on her. She was the brains in the group and they actually thought they were going to win. She laughed as the snow hit both of them. "Have you had enough yet?" She laughed and lost concentration the snow stopped going towards them.

Jory returned Alex's grin. "Maybe we should go snorkeling and find out,'' he said. He had been diving before, two years back, but his mother wouldn't allow him to go too far down. She said he was too young but he made up his mind the next time, he'd definitely go explore more. “We could go visit the coral reefs where there loads of fishes living and who knows maybe we’d actually find one willing to chatter away,’’ he joked.


“So, if you don’t mind me asking, which of your parents has the magical blood?’’ Jory wondered aloud. It was a curious thing, the way witches and wizards were born to half bloods and muggles. Just as it was curious that squibs were born to magical folks.

"Really, Fancy? I think it is." Anya said with a bit of a smirk. Ah. Messer knew that it was cheating. She was sure of it. And there was no way he was going to make her feel guilty about that. "But... you know... if you did happen to come across some... say... hanging on a wall in Surrey... I couldn't keep you from looking."

"Are there different levels of cute? In your mind? Or is everything just cute?" she asked. Because for girls... or at least for her... there were things like baby animal cute or d'aww cute or even *brow* cute.

She smiled. "I know I'm not." she said waving a hand in dismissal. Sooner or later, eh? "Is there a particular reason you want to know so badly, Messer?" she asked with a raised eyebrow.

She looked at the ground for a moment. "Well, do you feel any different?" she asked. "Because if you don't... that means they couldn't possibly exist." It made sense.

''Nice place around there.''He said smiling.Than again every place in London was Nice.

''Nice to meet you as well.'He smiled at her and looked at the Yellow animals floating around.''Oh Drawing and writing songs for My guitar.''He explained.''Do you have any Hobbies?"'He asked.

Harvey shushed Justin as he laughed hysterically he was about give Harvey's game away, just then Harvey threw his balls at her but she ducked away just in time and only managed to get her hair to which he stomped his feet at having missed. He was then surprised to see her jump up an pulling out her wand she sent snow their way.

SPLAT!! SPLAT!!

Two hit Harvey as he shielded himself, he heard her laughing and no more hits? that didn't sound right. He was sure there were many more coming his way! He looked up to see her laughing and quite a few snowballs suspended in mid-air, he walked upto them looking. Nice! He then held onto two of them not moving them just holding onto them "Ahem!! Er Mins? You might wanna look here!" he smiled as he looked at her, he was getting ready to throw those two balls but only after she had seen that her magic had not followed her through.

Minerva looked just in time to see the snow fall back to the ground, but not before Harvey had two snowballs in his hands. She screamed with laughter and took off running away from them. She knew the boys were faster then her, but if she could have a good head start then she knew she would be able to get away from them. She tried to dive behind a tree and pull up some snow before Harvey could get to her.

Ella stood up. This conversation wasn't going anywhere. Mostly because Cardigan seemed to be hiding something. She could tell, what with the uneasiness and all. WHY was she so uneasy. The hard part was over, yeah? Ella had said what she wanted to say, asked what she needed to ask. Cardigan had done the same...what was left to be nervous about? Whatever it was, it must be bad. Especially because Cardigan kept dancing around the issue. It gave Ella a really queasy feeling in her stomach. "Well if you don't want to tell me then..." She started, wiping her clothes clean. "I guess maybe I should just go." That's what Cardigan wanted, right? She wanted Ella to leave so she didn't have to answer any more of her questions. "I guess this means we're not friends anymore?" She added in a very quiet voice, not quite looking Cardigan in the eyes. She couldn't. The second year was no longer angry with the girl but she felt kind of sad that she wouldn't just talk to her. Tell her the truth. In all honesty it was quite frustrating.

" You are gonna get it, Minnie!!!! You can run.... I won't tire so easily....." Justin said as he got up and scooped up enough snow to cover her head. He tore off running toward the sound of her laughter...... Finally she was in sight... Harvey coming up along side her flank and drove her towards Justin and his bounty of snow..... Poised for the attack.....And......Splat!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Justin half tackled her to the ground and mashed it in her hair abd down the front of her jacket.....
He sat there laughing as she reacted...

"You play guitar, thats cool" she smiled. The blonde was beginning to notice there was a lot of musical people around here. "I play the piano and sing" she explained. Yeah those were a few hobbies, although she had more, but singing that was new. The blonde finally felt comfortable enough to sing around people now.

Harvey laughed as Minnie screamed with laughter and ran away before he could even start running, but he still ran after her as she tried to dive and get some snow rolled and made up before he had a chance to get to her. Just then he heard Justin yell out to Minnie as he got up, well there was two of them and one of her right.. so Harvey drove her towards Justin as she was covered in the snow that Justin had. Harvey laughed as he watched Justin put snow the front of her jacket and into her hair.. he didnt have the heart to throw the balls he had but he threw them anyway but not exactly with power but they did go splat! Harvey chuckled as he saw everyone laughing.. this hadnt happened in a long time he smiled as he thought this.

Minerva ran as fast as she could, but it just wasn't fast enough. She felt someone behind her and the next thing she knew she was on the ground having snow smashed on her. Before she could break free she was being hit again. They were ganging up on her AGAIN!!! She finally broke free and started jumping around "COLD..COLD...COLD.." She pulled her coat off shaking out the snow and brushing it off her shirt. "You two are going to wish you never did that." she pulled her wand and "Wingardium Leviosa" pointing her wand to the tree above them. The snow lifted and landed on top of the two boys.

Justin laughed at Minerva as Harvey pegged her again.... Then she looked super mad and all of a sudden they were covered in Snow...
" Oh!.... Well done, Wheatborn..... Today you rise victorious..... But we shall meet again...." he chuckled sounding like a gladiator....

Harvey watched as broke free and jumped around trying to get the snow off of her before she took off her jackets and brushed off the excess snow threatening them. Harvey thought that she couldn't do too much damage right. how wrong he was cause the next moment her wand was out and next moment he was covered in snow.. along with Justin. He listened as Justin declared her victorius while Harvey was stunned at having been covered in snow all of a sudden.. he then shook himself like a dog would trying to get all the snow off of him. This reminded him of his first year where Ronnie had pelted him so many times he was completely covered in snow and it made him cold.. very cold. But both times it was a lot of fun to have snowball fights with friends.. afterall thats what the snow was there for to be used as weapons against each other without actually causing any harm except making each other freeze.

Minerva smiled as they both decided to give up. She shivered from being wet and cold. Pocketing her wand she pulled her wet hair into a pony tail and grabbed her hat from her bag and placed it on her head. "I hope you to had fun.' she laughed, "I have really missed the Amigos together." She sat back on the blanket even though she was cold she didn't want to leave their company just yet it had been to long since they talked and hung out.

Erin gave a lot of her time in making such an intricate design of two little cupids, two girls. Well, girls don't usually come in television and movies as cupids. Cupids are little boys. But then, those two little girl cupids represent Erin and Beezus, they're the best of friends and oh! Didn't they say that they were bestfriends even before Erin left Hogwarts last year halfway of the term? Did they? Now, she couldn't even remember it. Was that too long to forget such a beautiful friendship or she's the only one who thought it was beautiful? Erin admits that she was not so much of a good friend to Beezus before she left but Erin was there for her... all the time. They even write letters to each other and she hadn't mentioned about this someone, a new bestfriend.

Erin's feet swimming under the pond, her face in a contorted shape, she was holding a piece of fabric and on the other hand was a blunt tapestry needle.

Harvey watched as she pocketed her wand and tied her hair up putting a hat on. She hoped they had fun? well alright so maybe he did have fun, wait! she had missed them together too? then why wait so long to hang out again?! why did they not hang out sooner? anyways that was all in the past.. He sat down on the blanket that she had laid out "Yeah it was fun to have us all together again after so long" he smiled a little, yeah in his opinion it had been too long but then again their group of friends was so large that it was hard to keep up with everyone, right? .. right.

''Yeah it is.''He smiled.''Oh yeah,That's cool.''His Mum played the Piano,And sung.He didn't like being around for that.

"That would be amazing." Alex replied thinking about what an experience that would be. Especialy going deep down and up close with the with. "We should teach them English first so we can then understandt hem a bit better when we chat." she joked.

The lion smiled at Jory. "It's fine. My mother is a Muggleborn witch whereas my father is a Half-Blood."

Humming he headed out towards the grounds again, he was just tired of the mundane schoolwork day after day. Really was looking forward to the holidays coming up. Heading back towards the duck pond, Isaac buried his hands in the pockets of his warm jacket. It was chilly out but not too bad, really considering it was December. His mouth covered with hem of his jacket his eyes peeking out as he stood on the edge of the pond.

Looking over he saw a girl not too far from him actually sewing something... Weren't her fingers numb??? he wondered in surprise. "Aren't ye cold?" he asked heading her way, after a moments hesitation. After all, she was a girl...and someone he definitely didn't know. He'd given up on trying to find Amelia, she always seemed to disappear, and though it hurt not to have her around so much, he was starting to get used to that fact, which really depressed him even more, but he wasn't going to let others see that!

*"No no no!" Cardigan said quickly, in hopes that she would sit back down. That wasn't it. She wanted to tell Ella. She probably should tell Ella! But the thing is, she wasn't exactly sure about it yet; Logan needed to be here too. Now wasn't the best time to tell her, if she was even going to go through with the idea. "The thing is, Ella, now is not the best time to tell you. Logan needs to hear it too. The later I tell you, the better. Besides, I'm not even sure if I'm going to 'go through with it'," She explained, twisting and untwisting her finger with a strand of hair.

*Cardigan was still right about losing Logan as a friend. At least she thought she was... He hadn't been keeping in touch with her AT ALL. Something was a little fishy about it... I mean, it's been more than a month into Hogwarts! Hopefully nothing was wrong.. Maybe Ella would now about it!!! "Hey Ella, has Logan been keeping in touch with ya lately? I'm just wondering 'cause, for some reason, I haven't heard from him..." The snake asked, furrowing her brow in thought. She was waiting to see if he would send anything first. Maybe, after their conversation was over, she should go do just that...

The second year raised her eyebrows when Cardigan said no several times. So what, she wanted her to stay then? Ella sighed and sat down, feeling more confused than ever...that was until Cardigan spoke next. The later the better? Go through with it? What it?! "Cardigan, you're not making any sense. I don't understand what you're talking about." She said with a frown.

When Cardigan asked about Logan owling Ella, the second year wasn't sure what to say. On the one hand, Ella didn't want to lie to Cardigan...but on the other hand, if Logan wasn't owling her too than she might be upset. In the end, she decided honesty was the best way to go. "I've received a couple of owls from him since...then." Then being the unfortunate incident on the platform. "His aunt has him locked up in his room with Peeta...so he's not exactly having the best time."
