Hogwarts Pep Rally
When Thursday, 27 September @ 8pm EST
to
Sunday, 30 September @ 11:59pm EST
Where Hogwarts Stadium
Electricity filled the air as the gates to Hogwarts Stadium magically opened themselves to the staff and students of the school. Set against the backdrop of Hogwarts Castle, the stadium seemed to have a life of its own - the exquisite tapestries that covered the stadium's skeleton shone brightly in the autumn sun. The blues, bronzes, crimson, gold, black, emerald and silver shades appeared brighter than usual. A light breeze wafted through the stadium, ruffling the tapestries and causing an illusion of the embroidered mascots coming to life.
Come in and have a seat in the sections that are decorated with your Hogwarts house colors. Unfurl your banners and get ready for the fun to begin!

Well wasn't this a lucky surprise! Leo must have read her mind. "I'd love one." she grinned, taking one of the flags, waving it. Oh goodness, that was indeed necessary. "Too right." Looking up to the higher seats that most staff sat in, Medea frowned a little. Gosh they were so high up, away from the fun of the crowd. Well, the louder crowd at least.
Her attention was taken away by a dancing badger moving around them. How clever! Leo didn't look as if he'd join in though. It was just a given that Sophia wouldn't. There will be some flag waving in front of her! "Oh, c'mon..." she nudged the librarian, chuckling lightheartedly as she somewhat danced along with the badger. It was a pep rally after all. Go big or don't go at all!
With her dancing, Medea noticed one of the students waving their way. Oh! Kurumi and her ever famous cookies. The professor smiled and waved back. She'd have to ask about them if the Gryffindor came closer.

Waving her wand at her giant lion cookie again to make it prance around a little bit instead of just paw at the air and swish its massive sugary tail, Kurumi turned her attention back to Sarah. "I'll wear it often," Kurumi promised as she slipped it over her Gryffindor shirt. "Thanks again, Sarah," she added with a smile.

Rendered speechless, Kurumi's violet eyes fell instantly on Lewis and the color in her cheeks rose even more while she bit down shyly on her bottom lip. Had he heard that?! Swallowing, Kurumi tried to tear her eyes away from him to make herself feel less awkward - she was SO not thinking about that right now...she just wanted to get into university! - only she couldn't and her face probably resembled that of a ripe strawberry...and her hair was pink now as well. Lewis' pink. Which just made her feel even more awkward and flustered.
"I-I-I'll be right back..." Kurumi said to whoever was listening as she made her way a out of the pride of lions to get some air.

Minus maybe asking about her hair being pink at the moment.
"Hello, professor," Kurumi managed to squeak out. Yep...just gonna hang here for a little while Selina lead the battle cry.

FOR SLYTHERIN!
"What was that?" he said, placing a hand on his ear as if he couldn't hear then, though he clearly did, hehe! "Who. Are. We?" Louuuder, people, LOUDER! He wanted to hear all his snakes hiss, including Odessa.
He momentarily allowed his eyes to rake the green and silver crowd and frowned the tiniest bit. No Sierra. Hmmm. Crud.
Here goes another wave of Slytherin pride. Thank you, thank you Mister Head Boy. Hogwarts, get ready for the Snakes. They are NOT to be underestimated.
Kat got ready to scream her lungs out again. Waiting for Head Boy's 'Who Are We?', Kat yelled even louder.
"SLYTHERIN!!!"
Aw Yeaaaaah.
SPOILER!!: Awh. This one's for Kurumi. *sniggers*

YOU MADE THE LION PREFECT EMBARRASSED!!!!!!!!!!!!
Then she saw Kurumi as she made her way out of the crowd. "Ooooops..."

Sarah grinned at Kurumi. Her heart was singing with joy now.She loved what the giant cookie was doing... dancing! "You should... we will be twins then! Awesome heh? We should SO wear it to the upcoming quidditch match!" Kurumi thanked her for that? What. "no please... it was much easier for me to make those shirt magically then for you to bake those cookies manually! And they are yum" Sarah having bitten into one already. She flicked a few crumbs off her robe.. why could she never stay clean while eating. Her brother used to say that Sarah and James had to talent of getting food all over themselves when eating... Sarah wished she were not so talanted in such a way. "Thanks" she said

Who are we? The royal we?
"WESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSST ODESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSA!" West managed loudly, including the hissssss for snake pride.
Well.
It WAS who he was.
There was someone shouting something that was not the name of a house or its mascot. Sarah listened closely and then she did not have to guess where it was coming from. West. Her boy was something else.
Looking where Crabby pointed, all Ed could do was stare. Had everyone lost their minds?! Pretty soon, there would probably be banners falling from the sky and doing tap dances! It sounded crazy, but hey, he was witnessing that right now. Glancing down at Crabby's arm which was now linked with his, he wondered if she holding onto sanity or just scared of the crazy badger. And speaking of badger.
...The badger was irritated with them? At least they were here! And Crabby was wearing enough yellow for both of them. He raised his eyebrows as the badger left doing one of the strangest things and went back to screaming their house. Point made, Hufflepuff's were crazy.
He was gaping at the badger in disbelief when he got nudged. "Hmm?" He looked at Crabby before his eyes settled on a kid cheerleading with some pom poms. Wait, CHEERLEADING? O___O Had everyone hit their heads? Did they need the nurse?! "I think I'll pass." He eyed the pom poms distastefully and looked elsewhere, hoping to see some sign of sanity from someone other than him and Crabby.
Luckily, someone was waving at them. Who? Like he knew! But he definitely wasn't going to be rude to this kid, he'd not tried to encourage them like other dancing badgers people. Waving back with a smile, he realised Crabby was doing the exact same thing. "I think that's one of the sane ones, which is go-" He broke off as the kid started singing and yelling. "I take that back."
All he could do as she told off yet another person for ruining their attempted peaceful observation of this contained chaos pep rally was smirk. At least she hadn't been rude, she was just straight to the point. Yes, he liked Crabby even more after today.

"Err. Thanks." He's still shocked from the hug that his roommate just gave him. Two people? Someone was wearing Badger suit? How did he miss this? He looked around and found the Badger mascot. "Do you know who's in that costume?" he asked Alec. "Ohh yeah, the hoodie looks good on you." Nod. nod. Nod.
Messer was doing another High V movement with his pom poms when he heard Oakey started cheering. His name was in his cheering? He's a bit shocked for a few seconds before he decided to dances with Oakey's cheering voice as his background song.
"Nice cheering, mate!" Oakey had officially become Messer new favorite older Hufflepuff. Just look how cool the guy and he never called him Messy. And that dance move had officially made him exhausted maybe he need to sit down for a while and let the other Hufflepuffs do some cheering.
Messer turned his attention to the girl who had been eyeing him since he started cheering with his pom poms. "Do you want to use the pom poms?" If the girl want to borrow it all she had to do just ask him.
"I know this is a pep rally and people ARE supposed to scream and shout but this is just utterly ridiculous." Abby sighed, her head starting to ache from all the noise. She still had her arm linked with Almond's though. You know, just in case.
Give it a pass? Abby smirked but just then, the cheerleader walked up to her asking if she wanted to give it a try. Yeah, right. Normally, she would have but with so many people around.. she didn't want to look like a fool. "Um. No.. but the boy here.." She nodded towards Almond. "..I think he would like to give it a go." She continued to smirk, knowing that she was just making Almond mad. Hey. She liked to annoy people.

'Look Missy.' Yes she wanted to show this a girl a little bit of attitude..but maybe it was a bit too mean to adress someone like that and so she stopped herself from doing so. "Erm...sorry." She started off like that instead. "..but please, just consider that we're supposed to be cheering." Polite enough, right?
YES. Abby knew they were supposed to be cheering. Thanks for the information anyway. The sixth year rolled her eyes at the Captain, not wanting to get into an argument in the middle of all this chaos. Or maybe.. Abby should have just stayed back in the common room. Wait.. could they actually leave? Because she really wanted to get away from all the noise. UGH. It was deafening.

Okay, who'd broken Sutton? She'd gone crazy! All Ed could do was gape at the girl, amazed and concerned. He was definitely going to talk to her later and find out just WHO was making the Puffs go crazy. Finally tearing his disbelieving gaze from the third year, he nodded at Crabby, agreeing once more. "Did everyone take a crazy potion? Was it in the food?" He'd skipped breakfast that morning, so it was possible!
He eyed the guy with the pom poms when he approached and smirked at Crabby. He was going to say she DID want to use them, but was too shy. And then she got there first. His jaw dropped. He'd never shown any interest in cheerleading, nor waving around fluffy balls of yellowness in support for a house of crazy people. "Honestly, you're doing a good job, carry on." He tried to save himself with a small, encouraging smile.
He watched the exchange between the badge lady and Crabby with disinterest. Of course people were supposed to be cheering, but who said it had to be that loud and that crazy? Deciding to leave it, Ed glanced back over to broken Sutton and raised an eyebrow.

Granted Vickers wasnt the type to scream and yell and and do any sorts of crazy stunts whilst completely sober. Didnt mean he had any less school spirit. And so goes the Ravernerd into the stadium, tugging and controlling a rather large EAGLE KITE to rally some House Pride. Sure he may not be as witty with the cheers, but what he lacks for hyperness he makes up for creativity. Its the Ravenclaw way yeah?
He spotted his lovely ginger girlfriend cheering to her heart's content. "Hey Lou--!" he called out over the din as he navigated himself and the tethered floating eagle beside the Head Girl. He brings out what looks to be really long wand until he squeezes the end-- and out comes FIREWORKS shooting up and exploding all around the Ravenclaw side of the stadium, of which he does manage to yell out "GOOOOO RAVENCLAWWWWWW!!!!"
SPOILER!!: Giant Eagle Kite plus Fireworks!

"Glad to have you here then! Do breathe fire on the other houses." Yeah, she was kidding. With a laugh, she quickly hugged the dragon and resumed her cheering.
Enthusiastic waving for you too Lana! HAAAAAAIIIIIII!! She must look really funny right now, grinning from ear to ear, doing some jumping stunts and waving to almost every Ravenclaw she could see.
And they should get on cheering! HUZZAH!!
Hello Blue, darling!
Beezus tilted her head side to side as she pulled the younger 'claw in a for a hug. HEHE. "Thank you..You look good too." Wink.
And yes, yes. Do help with the cheering. And maybe she wanted pom poms too?
So Nigel was also there. "Haaaaaiiiii Nigel!" More waves. "..thank you!" she replied. "Oh, oh! Face paint!"
With the megaphone, "GUYS! WE HAVE PAINT FOR YOUR LOVELY FACES HERE!!" she announces over the Ravencaw crowd. Come one eagles, you need genuine Ravenclaw make up!
GOOD ELLIOT.
"You should've worn a costume Elliot! You could be our House muse or something.." Well, she was pretty and alluring. *BROWS* Beezus gave her a thumbs up before getting on with the cheering and chanting.
Louisa knew who the dragon was? "Hey Louisa!" Beezus greeted the Head Girl, and at the same time handing her some blue and bronze pom poms. "You know who our mascot is?" She sent a look to the mascot then back to her.
TELL HER WHO IT WAS? 'Coz Beezus didn't have a clue. Hehe.
Lana was so into it! The girl was right, there should be a cheering squad for their House!
Beezus immediately got into joining in with the cheer,
"EVERYBODY YELL! BLUE AND BROZE! BLUE AND BRONZE! BLUE AND BRONZE!BLUE AND BRONZE!BLUE AND BRONZE!BLUE AND BRONZE!BLUE AND BRONZE!BLUE AND BRONZE!BLUE AND BRONZE!BLUE AND BRONZE!BLUE AND BRONZE!BLUE AND BRONZE!BLUE AND BRONZE!BLUE AND BRONZE!BLUE AND BRONZE!BLUE AND BRONZE!BLUE AND BRONZE!BLUE AND BRONZE!"
And she didn't care if does words got stuck in someone's head for life. XD
And there goes Vickers. WHOA. JUST WHOA!
After the older 'Claw had caught up to his girlfriend, Beezus waded over to where he was, clapping him on the back, giggling. "That is just amazing!" the brunette looked up in awe at the large kite and fireworks. "YOU are amazing!"
..and could she hug him? Yeah, NO. Louisa probably won't like that. Hehe. So she just thrust some pom poms his way.
Look, a girl was waving at her! Beezus waved back even if she didn't who it was. "Hulloooooo!" Then she thrust some pom poms her way.
Come on, let's cheeeEEEEEEEEEEEEEEERRR!!
Her attention was quickly drawn to the huge eagle kite she knew would be here any minute, the smirk forming on her mouth was so huge when her eyes fell on the SOHOTOMG boy directing the kite toward their Ravvie group. She was so proud and happy right then, as the others appreciated his kite and amazing fireworks, oh yes she did glance away from him to acknowledge those. Her joy and enthusiasm were temporarily interrupted when he called her 'Lou'. "Don't." She said quickly, a bit blatantly, and reached for his hand, "Just... Louisa. Or anything else." She fake!pouted and leaned on his arm a bit, "I don't like it." No specific reason other than it made her sound like a dude. Lou, Lu... no, just no.
When Beezus greeted them both again, Louisa flashed the 'claw a big smile. "Heiya, Bee." And... what? Their mascot? Louisa looked from Spike in his dragon outfit to Vickers with his eagle kite. "I think we got two today," she giggled and just shrugged. "Let's cheeeeer at the top of our lungs!!" She broke free from Vickers' hand and cupped them around her mouth,
"BLUE AND BRONZE! BLUE AND BRONZE! BLUE AND BRONZE!BLUE AND BRONZE!BLUE AND BRONZE!BLUE AND BRONZE!"
Nudging the not-so-loud boyfriend she repeated,
"BLUE AND BRONZE! BLUE AND BRONZE! BLUE AND BRONZE!BLUE AND BRONZE!BLUE AND BRONZE!BLUE AND BRONZE!"
After Sutton had finished with her cheer, she spotted Edmund in the stands looking grumpy. Her and her giggling, bubbly self ran up into the stands to where he was sitting! "Hi Edmund!! You having fun?" she asked. Smiling as she looked at the other people he was sitting with, she said, "Hi! I'm Sutton!" Looking up and down, there were no seats nearby, soooo she decided to just sit on Edmund's lap. He wouldn't mind, right?

He heard the sorry part and realised it was a girl under that costume, a girl? he wasnt expecting a girl to be in a costume.. he was about to back away very slowly. When she saw him as she turned around, uh oh he was done for. He saw her look at the professors, ok he was in trouble now.. he would say that someone dared him to do this. Now who to name as the person that dared him, hmm he would have to think about that.
He nearly jumped back himself as she jumped towards him and tapped her badger foot, what was she thinking of doing? Oh well there were alot of things she could do,, good and bad! Wait did she just giggle!? oh no she didnt just giggle? meaning that she was having fun seeing him in a costume!? suddenly he felt himself being pulled towards her and the other hufflepuff costume, and to his horror she started dancing around him. He just watched, frozen to the spot as she danced around him, if she expected him to dance there was no way that he was dancing with her. "ROAR!!!" someone save him please! he begged the professors and other puffs silently. Come on was there no-one that wanted to save a little lion from this.. this.. crazy dancing badger? He then turned to the puffs "ROAR!!" he had to get out of here! he tried to get away from the badger but she blocked his way in dancing, so he just stood there as she danced around him "Roar!!" he said a little sulkily as he waited for the badger to get tired of dancing around him. Under the costume a smile was appearing on his face, glad they couldnt see it, this was fun being in costumes.. he wondered who was under the other one.
Minerva saw Professor Romanos smile and dance. YES.. there was a professor who had spirit for a pep rally. WOOT WOOT, Minerav bounced around the Lion and Oakey with Professor Romanos and to show her appreciation for the professor she began to do some Yoga positions, which seemed to be very difficult in the over size costume she had on.
Then an idea came to mind, when she noticed Mr. Lion didn't seem to happy to be dancing with her. Well he was the one that came to her, maybe next time he will watch before coming near a dressed up badger, she giggled thinking about this. Turning towards him she grabbed his hands and put them in a praying position and then took one of his legs pulling it up placing his foot on his knee. If he didn't want to dance, he could do yoga. Minvera laughed to herself knowing whomever the lion was he/she was probably not enjoying this. Then clapping in approval on him she began clapping her hands and dancing again.

She was scanning the crowd trying to figure it out when suddenly the badger had her by the hand and was yelling cheers. Laughing even harder, Sutton knew PRECISELY who was in that badger suit, but she wouldn't ruin it for Minnie.
There was a reason mascots didn't talk... apparently Minnie hadn't gotten that memo! Though, Sutton had to admit she admired the girl's guts.
Though she was being dragged, Sutton willingly went with her to stand in front of the crowds and try to lead cheers. It was all coming back to her, those memories of being a cheerleader, of seeing the cheerleaders at pep rallies. In theory, Sutton would have made a good cheerleader... she had the bubbliness, but rarely were the cheerleaders symbols of what the school stood for, as they should have been.
Nevertheless, there she was, standing in front of her fellow housemates, laughing, smiling, decked out in her Badger pride. As loud as she could, she began yelling...
"Err. Thanks." He's still shocked from the hug that his roommate just gave him. Two people? Someone was wearing Badger suit? How did he miss this? He looked around and found the Badger mascot.

He quickly pulled himself upright, glancing around to make sure no one had noticed, then entered and began to climb toward the Hufflepuff section.
It felt weird to cheer for them. All his life he had known nothing but Ravenclaw spirit. But that was fine with him, because if he had to be in any house besides Ravenclaw, it would be Hufflepuff. Just like his Aunt Fina. "No, Pao. She's Professor Hadley now. Not Auntie Faith." He mentally shook himself, vowing to try harder to prevent himself from slipping again.
Taking a seat in the sea of yellow, he got ready to get his cheer on! "Let's go Badgers, let's go!" Clap, clap. "Let's go Badgers, let's go!" Clap, clap.

'Look Missy.' Yes she wanted to show this a girl a little bit of attitude..but maybe it was a bit too mean to adress someone like that and so she stopped herself from doing so. "Erm...sorry." She started off like that instead. "..but please, just consider that we're supposed to be cheering." Polite enough, right?
After that little incident, someone else began speaking too. Yellow...yeah that's how it went. Who was saying that though?
The red head turned around. Lewis! aka Pygmy puff weirdo ...and Kururmi's boyfriend. Nessie gave him a small grin and nod. She then moved up so the prefect could take a seat.
As Lewis' eyes wondered off into the crowd, Ness followed them and noticed he was looking at Kurumi. Of course! Not surprisng he was looking there at all, in fact it was adorable. She giggled at him and then turned her attention to what he was saying. It was hard to hear him whispering through all the noise though.
Something about shouting and yelling. Hmmm...That was what he was saying right? "Yeah, everyone is shouting and yelling." She stated loudly and randomly, still not entirely sure what he had said. "These things aren't really my thing. I usually keep my voice for when I'm angry and feel like screeching like a banshee." Aaand maybe it was not such a good idea to be telling people such things.
Her gummy bear eater! Renesmee beamed back as she saw Ella waving her way. The younger puff seemed to be better at these cheering things, which was good. Hufflepuff needed loud people like that at times like these.
"Hey, Ella and you know you don't have to call me that all the time." She honestly didn't. Just because she carried a title, didn't mean she had to be adressed by it all the time. Yet still it didn't bother Ness too much, what people called her.
Exciting...um...yeah course it was ...not, not to Nessie at least. "Yep, it's great." she said trying not to sound sarcastic. "You should all shout for me, my voice is erm....not good." Aha! They wouldn't mind? Right? That way she wouldn't have to damage her voice over this.
There was nothing wrong with all this school spirit. It was great, but couldn't there have been a better way to show it? Maybe through art..no wait she wasn't good at that either...through dance. There we go! Couldn't they do it through it through dance? That was something she could do, just maybe not in front of everyone.
Gummy bears did she want? "No gummy bears for me, thanks." Those things weren't too good on your teeth and Ness only ate them on a special occasion, not like this one.
Pout. Yes Nessie saw that frown of Messers and did she like it? Nope. "Hey, don't frown. You lot are doing good with your cheering." She gave him a smile and a nod. Muuch better than she had been doing. "I think I might have enough chocolate frogs to give you all later." Wink. Wink meaning the more they cheered on her behalf the better.
Alecutie! He was singing her song! And very well might she add. "Go Alec! " she gave him a thumbs up and urged for him to sing some more. These youngsters were doing good, it was better they lost their voices over hers. Mhhmm.
Minerva loved that Sutton was ready to cheer with her and bounced around as she started doing cheers. Repeating what she was saying as well to help her out. She knew many mascots didn't talk, but some did, plus she couldn't be at a rally without yelling with her house.
As she was cheering she saw someone with POM POMS.. Hmmmm.. Getting a boy up here as well.. Yes that's what was needed. Minerva took off towards Messer and pulled him out with Sutton to be their official cheer leaders.. Yes they had cheerleaders and a mascot, the cheering section was complete. Clapping and jumping around as Sutton did the cheers she hoped Messer would join in with Sutton.
Then she saw a first year she hadn't met before and jumped over to him bouncing around clapping to show that it was great for him to be here cheering, yes keep up the great work little firstie.. Minerva couldn't believe the fun she was having in a costume. Yes.. this was something she wouldn't really do in front of people without being hidden so this was great.
Wait... Minerva stopped when she saw the Captain of their Quidditch team.. No.. no.. this is not where she should be up in the stands hiding, she should be in front.. She was their leader, right!! Going up grabbing Nessie's hand she pulled her down with Messer and Sutton then started chanting..
Minerva saw Professor Romanos smile and dance. YES.. there was a professor who had spirit for a pep rally. WOOT WOOT, Minerav bounced around the Lion and Oakey with Professor Romanos and to show her appreciation for the professor she began to do some Yoga positions, which seemed to be very difficult in the over size costume she had on.
Then an idea came to mind, when she noticed Mr. Lion didn't seem to happy to be dancing with her. Well he was the one that came to her, maybe next time he will watch before coming near a dressed up badger, she giggled thinking about this. Turning towards him she grabbed his hands and put them in a praying position and then took one of his legs pulling it up placing his foot on his knee. If he didn't want to dance, he could do yoga. Minvera laughed to herself knowing whomever the lion was he/she was probably not enjoying this. Then clapping in approval on him she began clapping her hands and dancing again.
Oh great more added to the dance routine, now he would not be able to get out of here. There that boring yoga professor was there he watched as the badger lady started doing some of those funny yoga position thingies that did in class. He decided that he needed to sneak out now or risk being pulled into that yoga thing that he was not a fan of. So he did a few dance moves here and there still not thrilled at having to dance, his plan had been to scare this badger but that had been a total fail of his efforts. Did he not seem like a big scary lion in this thing? well that was the whole point of this costume to seem big and scary. But that didnt seem to be working out right about now. He then heard her giggle, he looked up at her.. and she was looking at him with that big badger head. Somehow he sensed that something was going to happen but before he could react it happened.
Before he knew it she had grabbed his hands and put them into a praying position, what was she doing? then grabbing one of his legs quite forcefully and place his foot onto his knee. WAIT! She was making him do yoga now? oh no! not in front of the professor that was such a big fan of yogas, he remembered that he had fallen over a few times in that class and next time he was there he wouldn't do these positions cause they hurt! Just then he heard her clap her approval, this brought a smile onto the little lion's face and the excitement of her clapping he started to lose his balance and before he knew it he had ended up in a big heap on the ground of this section. Oh great!! now he looked like a fool and people were gonna laugh at him. See this is what he got for doing yoga positions, he then remembered what he had done when he had fallen last time. He got up "I am ok!! I am ok!! Nothing can break or hurt this strong boy! Yup nothing!!" yeah he was the strongest kid there and he was not hurt, ok so maybe he was bruised in places but he was not going to show that now!
SPOILER!!: ALL OF YOU LION BABIES AND Kurumi and Gideon

And here was Theo. Cassia beamed at him, "Hey!" She said and it sounded like a cheer because you know her voice stuck to that tone. She shifted leaving more place to him. Oh and smart of him to wear his robes, Cassia felt that it was a very bad idea to wear a skirt. Though she was wearing a thick scarf ,jacket and boots but still. Maybe if she jumped she'll get warm. "Do you think any ghosts will show up?" She whispered in his ear because it was hard to be heard over the cheers.

Nope, the carefully iced red and gold cookies were in a box that she had placed an Undetectable Extension Charm on so she could fit them all in.
As for the other, erm, cookie...
*THUD THUD THUD THUD*
Kurumi wobbled in her yellow boots as she made her way over to the rest of her house followed by a larger than life size lion cookie. Selina HAD said big... and this lion cookie put some of those balloons you saw in nonmagical parades to shame. The charms on the cookie were nothing special really. Kurumi had witnessed them as a first year when Cam had performed them at the opening feast on her normal sized lion cookies. Waving her wand a bit to help the giant beast along as it continued to stomp its way, Kurumi wished she had had time to make he be able to roar properly. As it was now, it just pawed at the air occasionally and was able to walk around on command.
*STOMP STOMP STOMP*
By the time Kurumi had arrived her giant cookie's roaring wasn't really needed as the rest of her house was roaring away - not that the added effect wouldn't be appreciated.
Weaving her way through everyone, Kurumi managed to find her way beside Selina and handed her the box of cookies. "Alright, captain...I'm here...and I brought a friend."
Cue a MASSIVE pawing at the air from the giant cookie.
Yay KURUMI-WAS-HERE! Sarah grinned and was about to hand a t-shirt when she realized that... Kurumi had brought a YUM friend.. and it moved... Sarah hoped it did not crumble... "Hello - Howdya do that?" Sarah asked the older girl in awe... she always knew her prefect was AWESOME!!
Anyway Sarah was still handing out Tshirt and handed one to Kurumi, "you can wear it if you want..." and she got another one, "does the mascot want one too? He can have one with pleasure!" not waking for an answer, Sarah gave noth of them to Kurumi. Anyway Sarah had lots more...
SPOILER!!: fanficfanatict
Selina smirked at her boyfriend's logic about the whole November versus bare-chested pride. On a logical standpoint, the seventh year prefect did make a lot of sense. However, Selina was not exactly logical- especially since her beater bat had gone missing- so his argument did not make any sense to her. All she could think about was yelling at all the Gryffindor boys to show their pride in a similar fashion as a few years ago when Carter was Captain. That was an AWESOME Pep Rally. She missed a lot of the people on that team. Especially since, back in the day, it was mostly boys on the team, which always made for a fun time.
So brushing aside what he said, she merely chuckled, "November or not... house pride is forever." In her crazed state of mind, she supposed that her logic made sense. To the average person what she was suggesting was downright ludicrous. The sixth year was just not the most stable person in the world, especially when it came to house support. Selina really was the unofficial mascot for Gryffindor. And it was something that she was rather proud of to be honest.
Then she saw all of her little lions make their way onto the field. She grinned and nodded to each of them as they showed up, "Hey Taggle, Alice, Jake, Penelope, Anya, Ira." That seemed like MOST of the little lions. Although, out of the corner of her eye, she did see Landon and Melanie talking. She waved at them as well, "Hey Melanie, Landon." It seemed like a majority of her team was here, which made her happy. The only one she saw who was missing was Dylan, the ickle first year. Where was he?
Then, she heard all of the ickle lions talking about a shirtless mascot. She smiled at the memory and paused to explain, "Back when Anya's brother was Captain, we had a pep rally. All of the boys on the team, per me and Kurumi's request, went to the pep rally shirtless and we painted their chests red and gold. It was awesome. But me and Kurumi dressed up Gideon in a tail and some cub ears. So he was the shirtless mascot." Just so all of them knew why she was talking about that. It was sort of a random thing to be a continuous part of conversation, so she was just setting the record straight now.
However, she started to hear a very loud thud as all of the Gryffindors, including the adorable one who was handing out the t-shirts, started to mingle amongst themselves. But Selina blatantly ignored ALL of them because Kurumi had arrived. And as much as she loved her best friend, she was more interested in WHAT her best friend had arrived with. It was magical, it was huge, it was A COOKIE!!!!
AHHHHHHHH IT WAS A LIFE SIZED GIANT LION COOKIE THAT MOVED. HOW DID SHE BLOODY DO THAT?!
Selina ran at Kurumi and excitedly embraced the cookie. As she hugged it, she lifted her head away and smiled at Kurumi, "It's perfect. It's so, so, so very perfect." As she snuggled her head back into the cookie, she, in a muffled voice, muttered, "By the way, hi there."
After a few moments, Selina finally pulled away from the huge cookie and gave it one more smile. It was perfect. Just so perfect.
But she had work to do. She ran up the steps so she was overlooking all of the Gryffindors. The redhead pulled out her wand and waved it so a LOUD SONG PUMPED THROUGH THE STADIUM!
She pumped her fist in the air and yelled, "WHO ARE WE FIGHTING FOR?" WHO WERE THEY FIGHTING FOR, LIONS????
Then Selina told them what had happened a all those years ago... that was hilarious. Yet it was so ukurumi ike to do such a thing anyway. Sarah got
into the vibe. Was it a trick question or what? obviously lions.. they were the top of the food chain after all! She she yelled "GRYFFINDOR -ROAR,ROAR,ROAR!" And she waved her arms in the air... she was on a mission...

And then, "Hey, Anya," he said automatically as his girlfriend joined them. "Um." Transfigured a shirt color? "I... don't know how." He had learned how to transfigure a shirt in class... but change the color? No. Jake watched as Anya stepped in front of him, clearly trying to cover up his masterfully painted abs. Psh. "I'm perfectly decent, ya know," he said, putting his hands on her shoulders and stepping slightly to the side so she wasn't in front of him, and crossing his arms. Decent, yes. Warm? Definitely not. He hadn't thought about how cold it would be to go without a shirt. But... oh well. There were plenty of things to keep his mind off the cold.
Such as a giant lion... cookie.
Jake just stared at the thing as he watched the Prefect walk over. That was a cookie."Did you make that?" Sweet Merlin, that was amazing. Could they eat it? It was probably enough cookie to feed the whole of Gryffindor house...

Selina could say what she wanted, that wasn't going to get Gideon to take off his shirt. He was already being outside his usual quieter self he couldn't push it. Besides he had been wrangled the last time around, gouded by friend, girlfriend and finally captain alike. Not to mention the peer pressure from the older boys.
Gideon hadn't seen Tag approach, but he surely turned when the second year spoke up announcing his presence. Of course he had to have heard Selina's comment. Cue a certain prefect having to fight the urge to blush at the memory. "Nae...there isn't," he remarked, shooting a look at Selina when she explained the story.
Probably a good thing certain people weren't around to hear and tease him to no end about it.
However who was around was Jake aka Anya's boyfriend. Not a totally comfortable subject with Gideon. It reminded him too much that Kacie was of that same age and he really wasn't in the mood to beat off boys from her OR Carter's sister as he felt somewhat protective of her as well. The younger boy in question was doing a reproduction of the previous pep rally...chest painted and all.
Aye...let the younger lions have their fun.
First Penelope and Anya later arrived adding to their mix. "Hey Guys," Gideon greeted having finally recovered his voice...and his relative dignity. What? The older lion was far more dignified nowadays and would rather not be put in that situation at the moment. He smiled as Sarah was heard yelling over the din. Taking the offered shirt with a polite but quiet "Thank you," the prefect looked it over, spotting his great aunt amongst the names and couldn't help put chuckle at the last line. "Very nice."
Then there was stomping to be heard and one might have thought it was a whole bunch of students simply making noise. However as his fellow prefect made her appearance in the Gryffindor stands all nearby learned where the sound was coming from. One very large...very moving lion COOKIE!!
"Well I think ye may have outdid yerself this time, Kurumi," he remarked chuckling at his friend. Selina had to be in her element. Speaking of which one moment he had heard her react to her best friend and the next minute she seemed to have disappeared. It was when loud music sounded that he found her, obviously the instigator of the Gryffindor cry.
"GRYFFINDOR!!!!"

Penelope made her way quickly down to the stands for the pep rally. Shame it wasn't for a match yet, but pep rallies sounded cool too, especially since she'd never really been to one before. So this would be interesting.
Entering the stands, she quickly spotted Selina and Tag, so she walked over to them...and heard something about a bare chested/naked mascot? And THAT was when she spotted Jake. "Found him," she said, smirking.
Tag turned around to see who was near him and he found Penelope had arrived. And she looked pretty, really pretty. Hey Penelope. You look really really pretty today. " He greeted her with a warm smile.More than most days. She knew he called her pretty right whenever he got the chance. "But you look pretty every day." Tag added with a nod just so she wouldn't misunderstand him.
SPOILER!!: Anya
Anya headed to the pep rally. As a muggle born, she expected there to be... cheerleaders and... stuff. But there... wasn't. Of course, had there been a cheerleading squad, her name would have been on that list instead of the quidditch one.
Andddd... of course there was a crazy shirtless guy. That seemed more like a pep rally that she was expecting.
... That was her half dressed man. "You know... you could have just transfigured a shirt a different color if you didn't have red." But nope. He had to be a guy. Unless... he did it on purpose... in which case... Anya needed to rethink some things.
She casually stepped in front of him, because, you know, eyes to yourselves ladies.
Oh. And there were other people too. "Capt'n. Gideon. Taggie. Penne." she said with a smile nodding to each of them.
Tag made a disgusted face when he saw Anya's 'boyfriend' came shirtless. He didn't even have a good body so he found it pointless. Tag, on the other hand, believed he had a pretty good body but he didn't want to blind his girls. Besides, he was too young to show off.
"Hey Anya!" Tag said happily to her. Maybe they needed the Gryffindor crowd to draw some attention. Get all the other houses jealous of their attractivness and spirit to the school. So he casually asked with a smirk on his face, "Wanna have a dance off?" Cue two eyebrow arches.
SPOILER!!: Gideon
Gideon hadn't seen Tag approach, but he surely turned when the second year spoke up announcing his presence. Of course he had to have heard Selina's comment. Cue a certain prefect having to fight the urge to blush at the memory. "Nae...there isn't," he remarked, shooting a look at Selina when she explained the story.
"There isn't? That's a shame. Maybe they'll have auditions for some next term? I think I'd be good at that. I'm really hyper and can make people laugh." Please tell Tag that there were talks of mascots for next term, Gideon. Tag put his two hands together and looked up at the sky in hopes that this could be a possibitily.
SPOILER!!: Selina
Then she saw all of her little lions make their way onto the field. She grinned and nodded to each of them as they showed up, "Hey Taggle, Alice, Jake, Penelope, Anya, Ira." That seemed like MOST of the little lions. Although, out of the corner of her eye, she did see Landon and Melanie talking. She waved at them as well, "Hey Melanie, Landon." It seemed like a majority of her team was here, which made her happy. The only one she saw who was missing was Dylan, the ickle first year. Where was he?
Tag smiled when Selina called him Taggle. He didn't really remember how his name came to be Taggle but he liked it. It was his special nickname from Selina. It was slightly more different than the others."ELLLO!" Wait, he already said that.
When Selina screamed Tag leaned back a bit. The girl had the lungs of an air ballon and he had been completely startled by her reaction, and spirit.With a slightly amused expression Tag looked all around him and did in his best voice "GRYFFINDOR! GRYFFINDOR! GRYFFINDOR! C'MON GUYS! JOIN IN! GRYFFINDOR! GRYFFINDOR!"
SPOILER!!: Kurumi
Kurumi was not running late. Not in the traditional sense of the word anyway. Selina had given the seventh year very specific instructions: BRING COOKIES. Not that Kurumi hadn't been planning on it before...but Selina had mentioned big. So...she had had to start over with her initial plans. Not that she had tossed her first batch out. Nope, the carefully iced red and gold cookies were in a box that she had placed an Undetectable Extension Charm on so she could fit them all in.
As for the other, erm, cookie...
AWWWW YES! Kurumi was here. An what was Kurumi's trademark? Cookies. Or anything baked. Tag smiled from both ends of his face when he saw her making her way along. "KURUMI! KURUMI! Selina said if I came down here I'd get the first cookie! Can I get one?!" He said rather excitedly forgetting to say hi to her. Oh well, she could probably tell from his excitement that this was also for her.

He waved towards Selina as she said hi to him and Melanie. And all he could think of was that she thought of him as attractive.
Grin.
"Melanie. We should go sit over with them." He nodded, feeling a bit out of place. What other place would they sit other than their quidditch team? Not with the crazy person in the mascot costume, that's what. He saw Alice and waved back, with a grin upon his face. "Don't bite me!" He teased. Heheh.
The fifteen-year-old eventually swooped his arm through Melanie's and dragged her over where the team was. He was going a bit slow though just in case Melanie decided to fall because of her silly shoes. "Hey everyone!" He waved. "Do you guys have any food?"
Just then, Vindictus started to yell and Selina put on the music. "GO GRYFFINDOR!" He shouted along with the other lions. This was going to be fun.

Anya was not sure whether or not to be impressed or embarrassed. Actually. Yeah. She knew. "... seems like I've got a whole lot to live up to." she said with a light laugh. She didn't mean to say it overly sarcastic. It just seemed very Carter.
OOOOH! And Kurumi! With cookies. O_O AND A REALLLLLLY big cookie.
She eyed it with hungry eyes. Want!
Yeahhhh. Jake was trying to show off now. Anya rolled her eyes a little when he draped his arm around her and stepped to the side of her. "Yeah. Perfectly." she said with a light shake of the head. Typical boy move.
"You're going to catch a cold." And Anya was NOT going to feed him soup when he did.
Okay, that was a lie. She would take care of him if he got sick. But whatever. She was making a point.
Anya smiled in response to Tag's enthusiastic greeting. Did she want to have a dance off?! Tag was joking, right?
Because the answer was YES! He didn't even need to ask.
She nodded enthusiastically. She took off her shoes and handed them over to Jake.
Heh. Now that she thought about it, she had no idea why she wore heels to a pep rally. But whatever.
She then stepped back several feet from Tag and did a cartwheel toward him. She then flashed him a "top that" smirk.

Oh look! There was Lewis! Kurumi awkwardly hugged herself and smiled in his direction when she saw the small smirk on his lips. There...now it looked like she was sending Lewis a hug instead of just trying not to look ridiculous that her best friend had picked a cookie over her...right? Blushing a bit, Kurumi made a little mental note to go over to him after the pep rally was over and turned her attention back to Selina again.
"Hi," she laughed. "You told me to go big or go home..." See, Kurumi was good at following directions just like a good little house elf. "They're charmed too, the cookies I mean. Eat one and you get a little more pep and start to glow crimson and gold." Just how much glowing...that depended on the person. Kurumi had only tested them on herself and Walnut so far...but Walnut and glowed so bright that Kurumi had needed those sunglasses she used to use whenever she was around Treyen and his smile.
And then Selina happened...and Kurumi decided to weave through the crowd of lions a little more. Selina was the one who was good at spreading spirit vocally, but Kurumi had always been the more quiet type and right now she was going to spread the pep by handing out cookies.
And the first person she passed by was Sarah. "Oh, I used an Engorgement Charm on a regular cookie to get it to that size and then some simple Animation Charms to make it move. The Gryffindor prefect my first year showed me how to do it, but I only perfected them around 4th year." Even then it had been small things. Toy trains and stuffed animals.
"Oh wow, these are great!" Kurumi exclaimed as she took one of the tshirts from the younger lion. "I'll trade you. Tshirt for a cookie?" she asked as she offered the box of red and gold cookies towards the girl.
Kurumi then turned her attention towards Jake, who seemed almost as enamored with the giant cookie as Selina was...and a few professors. Kurumi waved towards Professor Bellaire and Professor Romanos before turning back towards the lion. "I did," she blushed. Selina's orders! "These too," and she offered him a cookie.
Kurumi simply jabbed her finger in Selina's direction. "Just following orders," Kurumi laughed. "You're missing your ears and tail." The shirtless bit she could do without. No one needed to do that this year...once was enough to scar Kurumi for life.
Oh! Magical Being Buddy! MBB for short! "Hey Tag," Kurumi waved, making her way towards him and already extending the box of cookie towards him. "Of course! They are meant to give all us lions a little extra pep." Just like they had at the one Quidditch math when Professor Bentley had suddenly begun cheering for Gryffindor despite still being a Ravenclaw at the time.
Hehe.
Not her fault if the effects also included Tag suddenly glowing red and gold either.
"Cookie?" Kurumi asked, offering one to him from her box.
Kurumi looked down at the cookies and the rest of her roaring lions. Yeah, she should probably have one herself. She could use a little more pep and sparkle.
And then there was someone dressed up as a lion?! Who was that?!

Melanie looked down as well. She admired her shoes from above. They looked better at this angle than they had sitting on the shelves in the store. "It because they're pretty," Melanie said, sticking her tongue out at Landon. She supposed Landon wouldn't ever understand this. He wasn't a girl. "If you let me hold onto you, I won't fall," Melanie huffed. Really, what was with Landon and her cheeks. If it wasn't a squished fish face, it was patting her cheek. Before one knew it, it would be pinching her cheeks.
And she didn't like people pinching her cheeks.
She turned her head when she heard someone greeting them. Beaming, Melanie waved back and nodded her head as Landon spoke. Oh look! There was Queen Alice! Melanie waved back to the younger girl as well before gripping Landon's arm.
She was not going to trip. Ever. Not today at least. As she walked over to the team, she smiled at the girl who had offered them a t-shirt then just... handed one to them. Giggling, Melanie smiled. "Thank you!" Right. Back to focusing on the task of walking. She looked at where the team was and gave them all a big smile. "Hi everyone," Melanie greeted, wobbling slightly. Oh look seats!
"GOOOO GRYFFINDOOOOR!!" Melanie shouted, flapping her little flag thingy and making sure the t-shirt she was holding onto didn't hit anyone in the face. And with that, the girl sat down.
She didn't wanna fall over. But she was going to enjoy listening to this song the Quidditch Captain had put on. Even if she didn't know the words. hehe...[/QUOTE]

He heard the sorry part and realised it was a girl under that costume, a girl? he wasnt expecting a girl to be in a costume.. he was about to back away very slowly. When she saw him as she turned around, uh oh he was done for. He saw her look at the professors, ok he was in trouble now.. he would say that someone dared him to do this. Now who to name as the person that dared him, hmm he would have to think about that.
He nearly jumped back himself as she jumped towards him and tapped her badger foot, what was she thinking of doing? Oh well there were alot of things she could do,, good and bad! Wait did she just giggle!? oh no she didnt just giggle? meaning that she was having fun seeing him in a costume!? suddenly he felt himself being pulled towards her and the other hufflepuff costume, and to his horror she started dancing around him. He just watched, frozen to the spot as she danced around him, if she expected him to dance there was no way that he was dancing with her. "ROAR!!!" someone save him please! he begged the professors and other puffs silently. Come on was there no-one that wanted to save a little lion from this.. this.. crazy dancing badger? He then turned to the puffs "ROAR!!" he had to get out of here! he tried to get away from the badger but she blocked his way in dancing, so he just stood there as she danced around him "Roar!!" he said a little sulkily as he waited for the badger to get tired of dancing around him. Under the costume a smile was appearing on his face, glad they couldnt see it, this was fun being in costumes.. he wondered who was under the other one.

Sarah smiled at he compliment. At least they liked her shirts.. and if her prefects liked her shirts.. that was all that mattered.. right? right?
Then she HAD to sing another war-cry.. this one was getting cliche.
She was gonna sing. :we are not mean, we're not mean, we are gonna cheer for the other team.. ehr our -go losers, go losers..: but as that was not nice Sarah thought of something. "Gryffindor has got the power, Gryffindor has got the beat, gryffindor has the oogy, woogy, loogy to keep ya on ya feet, when we are up we are up, when we are down, we are down, yet when you are up against the lions you are upside down" "RED AND GOLD
STRONG AND BOLD
A HOUSE NICE AND PROUD
WE WILL SHOUT IT OUT LOUD...
GO GRYFFINDOR"

So he did a few dance moves here and there still not thrilled at having to dance, his plan had been to scare this badger but that had been a total fail of his efforts. Did he not seem like a big scary lion in this thing? well that was the whole point of this costume to seem big and scary. But that didnt seem to be working out right about now. He then heard her giggle, he looked up at her.. and she was looking at him with that big badger head. Somehow he sensed that something was going to happen but before he could react it happened.
Before he knew it she had grabbed his hands and put them into a praying position, what was she doing? then grabbing one of his legs quite forcefully and place his foot onto his knee. WAIT! She was making him do yoga now? oh no! not in front of the professor that was such a big fan of yogas, he remembered that he had fallen over a few times in that class and next time he was there he wouldn't do these positions cause they hurt! Just then he heard her clap her approval, this brought a smile onto the little lion's face and the excitement of her clapping he started to lose his balance and before he knew it he had ended up in a big heap on the ground of this section. Oh great!! now he looked like a fool and people were gonna laugh at him. See this is what he got for doing yoga positions, he then remembered what he had done when he had fallen last time. He got up "I am ok!! I am ok!! Nothing can break or hurt this strong boy! Yup nothing!!" yeah he was the strongest kid there and he was not hurt, ok so maybe he was bruised in places but he was not going to show that now!
As much as Selina wanted to carry on with her conversation's with everyone, she was far too distracted by the lion, Leonard. The large lion was the cutest thing she had ever seen, second to her bat Mortimer. Leonard was going to be a symbol of Gryffindor pride, strength and cooking abilities. And no one was allowed to eat Leonard. She had decided that he would forever sit in the Common Room as the Common Room pet. She had to make a mental note to tell the little lions that they had to make him a small fort in the Common Room. She would supply all of the tools and wood. They could go crazy. What could POSSIBLY go wrong? Leonard needed a house anyway because he would be a universal testament to how much better Gryffindor was in general to EVERY OTHER HOUSE in the school. Honestly, if anyone else wanted to challenge her on that she would take them on. By the time she got through with them they would be chanting Gryffindor along with the rest of the lions. Then again, she didn't really want posers [a]aka Hufflepuffs, Slytherins and Ravenclaws[/s] shouting Gryffindor's name. It would just be ruddy, awful luck.
So Selina stood over the rest of the lions, on the stands of course because with her height she was lucky to tower over a first year, and rallied her house together. The redhead was the farthest thing from peppy, however, she was extremely prideful when it came to her house and her team. Pep did not fit her and neither did spirit, but maybe grit or inspiring was a good word for what the Gryffindor Captain was to her house to get them to feel house pride. She felt it was one of the most important parts of being a Gryffindor- showing one's pride. If a house had no pride they might as well slap on some yellow and call themselves Hufflepuff. She loved the house of the badger, but come on... the only terrifying badger was the honey badger. And even he didn't care.
Waving her hands over her head she started to pump her fists into the air as she continued to shout, "WHO ARE WE FIGHTING FOR?" She paused for a reply before continuing on, "GIVING IT ALL FOR THE RED AND GOLD. NOW I SAY, WHO ARE WE FIGHTING FOR?" And appropriate response would have been Leonard, but that didn't rhyme with the battle cry at the moment. Maybe she would rewrite a little bit of it to incooperate Leonard. After all, he was part of the pride now. What a pretty little kitty. Lion... feline.
The redhead still did not feel like she was getting the response that she wanted. So she turned up the music even louder with a wave of her wand and sent a spell up into the sky so the banners that she had made earlier appeared over the Gryffindor section of the stadium. The other houses did not have a lion mascot made of cookie or a banner waving high over their house. They did not have cookies or a battle cry or anything else that made Gryffindor scream unity.
Jayden was so PUMPED. Pep rallies were her FAVORITE. Now, the only problem for her was the fact that she was now dating a Slytherin; a very handsome one at that.
"CAW, CAW, RAVENCLAW!" She shrieked, getting into the swing of things. This was going to be such a great term, she could feel it.

They were the lion pride. Hear us roar.
SPOILER!!: Banner
Sarah had kept on going, sneaking some bites into the cookies every once in a while. Sarah was peppy and fill of energy too.
Sarah had said "Gryffindor" loud the first time. Did Selina really not hear her that she had to call again?... she did just that... she through open the roof of what usually the loudest one could yell and said, "GRYFFINDOR"

Looking up and down, there were no seats nearby, soooo she decided to just sit on Edmund's lap. He wouldn't mind, right?
There seriously MUST have been something put in the food. Gotta be. He managed a smile for Sutton and a half nod in answer to her question. Yep, he was having so much fun. NOT. He looked down the stands as people kept yelling and cheering and the badger was dancing away. This was just... crazy. His eyes snapped back to Sutton when she sat on his lap randomly. He glanced at Crabby and then looked back to Sutton again. He wasn't gonna say anything, the poor kid had eaten magically altered food. It wasn't her fault.
