Skip. Skip. Skip. Skipping up to the Owlery Ariana wanted to see Salazar her little fat babby owwwll, who she missed oh so so so Much! "Ohh Salazarrrr." she said coming to a stop in front of his cage holding a little bag with a few of his favorite treats. She opened his cage and picked him up and set him on her shoulder handing him a treat ' here you are Sal." she said to him as the ruddy bird took it from her and ate it letting out a hoot and Spreading his wings and giving them a flap.

"I know you hate being coped up here Sal But i can't let you roam around. you'll bite everyone." but that was good she wanted him to bite CHOMP CHOMP. hehe. she giggled at him and set him down on a table as she stroked his feathers a bit

Damon walked up, holding a letter for home, Sylv? Where're you girl?" He smiled as his owl came down to him, "Take it home for me?" He smiled as she gave a small hoot as a yes, "I also brought you a treat." He handed it to her, "Bug Puck enough to send something back and I'll give you even more." He laughed as she took off, as he turned he noticed Ariana.

"Hey you." He walked over to her, "Sending something out, or just coming to spoil your owl for a little while?" He knelt beside her and the owl she had, "And who's this?"

This was bad.

Kat hasn't seen Chase, her owl, for weeks already. She's already sent a letter to her Mum when she found out she got accepted in the Quidditch Team. Ever since then, Chase either wasn't there or didn't have any letters for her. It was a sad situation but the blonde accepted it. She knew her Mum and sister were there to help her father. Her father who was sick...

And that was the reason why the Slytherin went running to the Owlery. She's been having a strange feeling and a weird nightmare about something bad happening to someone in her family. Her instincts say it's her father, but the thought of it made her want to fall down helpless. She was here to know the truth.

When the blonde arrived at the place, she looked around for Chase. Where was that owl? He knew very well that Kat was at the urge to panic. "Chase!" she exclaimed. She couldn't take the tension that was swelling in her chest. "Where the firebolt are you?!" The blonde wanted to cry; Chase was the only way she could communicate to her family. And now, he has failed her.

Soon, a snowy owl flew inside one of the window and perched on a wooden stand in front of the girl. The blonde scanned her owl for a moment to see a letter tied onto Chase's leg. Kat untied the letter from her owl and gave him a quick treat so he would be contented. The blonde exhaled heavily and struggled to catch her breath. She couldn't process all the feelings she was having at the very moment. When she was finally able to unscroll the letter, the girl tried to pull herself together to see what the paper said. The parchment had blobs that looked like the ones tears could make. The handwriting, however, did not look like her mother's. The letter was written by her sister, Dianna.



This was too much to handle. The blonde dropped the piece of parchment on the ground and covered her mouth with her hand. Her father has died. "No..." she croaked but the tears fell simultaneously with it. None of this should've happened... Kat looked up the sky, pretending her father was there looking over her. Dad, this is all for you.

Blue considered Kat another sister.

Half of Hogwarts seemed to be her unbiological sisters. Hm..Anyway, back to the matter at hand. The girl knew about how sick Kat's dad was so she suggested coming with her friend to find her owl - because Kat had a feeling something had gone seriously wrong. And these feelings..they were usually right. She followed the fourth year up the many, many flights of stairs, completely silent.

Oh dear.

Kat couldn't find Chase. "Oh. Maybe he's hunting or something...?" Never mind. Blue's voice faltered as Kat read the letter, shuffling from foot to foot, looking at all the different owls and..owl poop. She wanted Kat to have some privacy. Her head snapped back to the blond when she heard the little croak and walked over swiftly, taking the girl into her arms in a hug.

"Kat?" She eyed the letter. "May I...?" She asked gently, nodding at the letter...even though she was pretty sure about what it said.

Kat felt like her world came crashing down in a split of a second. The content of Dianna's letter was still plastered in her head and it wouldn't leave her. The blonde wiped the tears streaming down her face with her palm. When Blue hugged her, though, Kat wanted to cry even more but she held it in. The Slytherin hugged Blue back. The girl was in need of hugs at the moment.

"Yeah," Kat said then she picked up the parchment that fell earlier then gave it to Blue. If the letter didn't make her cry, she would've ripped it apart due to anger. Of all people... HER DAD. Why was life so unfair? Her dad took care of her when her mother hated her... His time wasn't over and Kat believed that her father could've done more great things in his life.

Kat was wrong after all.

"Oh.. hai!" she said to the Adorable guy speaking to her. he. he. he. "Just spoiling my little guy." she said ruffling his feathers and taking him to stand on her hand. "this is Salazar."

CHOMP CHOMP

Salazar lunged and tried to bite Damon "hey heyyyy." she put her hand over his beak "we play nice with damon."

Sarah seemed to be in a really weird mood that day and she left the common room as soon as she entered it. Why? Because the first time in her life she felt like cleaning Angelina and grooming her.

Angelina seemed happy to be visited and she liked the feeling as Sarah began to groom her. Sarah never felt in the mood for cleaning just randomly so it was really random. Sarah brushed her feathers and cleaned Angelina and mad her smell all fresh. Angelina was happy when Sarah cleaned up her area of all waste like poop. Sarah actually enjoyed herself in the process which was really nice and she sang to herself while she worked. She cleaned Angelina's brak and talons too! Sarah also removed the carcasses of Angelina's food or that of the other owls. It was much easier doing it with her wand then the muggle way.

"Well, he's one lucky bird." Damon smiled... Until the bird was biting at him, "Um... I'm no threat?" He shrugged and sat beside her, "He seems... Charming."

she chuckled at his reaction " he's rude.. excuse him." she said setting the bird down on the table on the side of them " you Play NICE Salazar." she said scolding her little fat bird.

Damon smiled at her, "He's a bird... They normally aren't the perfect pet." He laughed as Sylvia came back down, "Take this one for instance, she likes to be fed treats even when she hasn't delivered the mail I give her." He chuckled and handed her another treat, "But at least she doesn't try to bite someone's finger off, I guess." Damon chuckled and looked at Sylvia again, "Now deliver the letter, you'll get more when you come back, I promise." He shook his head as she flew off again.

" oh he's a very good bird actually despite his biting. i dont know why he bites so much. he's never nipped at me though." she said ruffling his feathers again. mean bird. She gave him another snack and as he nibbled on it with his little beak she watched damon's owl fly back "who are you sending out too?" not that she cared nor was it her business but just starting converasation ya know

"Sage, actually." Damon shrugged, "First because it's his birthday, secondly because I need to know where our trip will be." He shrugged, "Dad sent me a letter last week, I'm refusing to respond to it though." Yeah, still mad at him for what had happened when Ari and him had gone home.

"your going on a trip?" that one sage mentioned when he barged in on them in hogsmeade? that trip?

Damon nodded, "The first week of summer Sage and I always go somewhere." He smiled, "Something we've always done... Mom's idea when she saw how much Sage cared about me." Which is probably why Sage had always seemed more like Damon's dad. After all, Puck hated him, never liked to spend a second with him unless it was training, "We'll probably just go to Romania again, but it's nice to know."

Ameliah's letter was tucked into her pocket as she walked in to meet her owl. She gave a sharp whistle, and within moments her brown owl, Levrell, flew onto her shoulder with his leg held out expectantly. "Hey there, bud. Been a while, hasn't it?"
Levrell hooted indignantly, rubbing his head on her neck.
"You're just too humble. I know it's my fault." Ameliah enjoyed talking to Levrell as well as her Puff, they always seemed to understand. "I gotta letter for you, but I wanna give you somethin' first." She handed him a few treats, smiling.

Since the end of term was nearing he had owled his mom about some things and he was kinda impatient to know what she would say so he had come up here to see if Frost had come back with a reply and as he entered the Owlery he saw .... her.. well it was all over now.. he couldnt stay angry at her all the time.. they were supposed to be friends afterall since he hadnt made any enemies from his ex girlfriends yet and he had no plan of starting now. He stood there as she talked to her owl and was smiling as well.. he hadnt seen her smile in a while.. since.. oh wells.. at least she was smiling now.

Levrell hooted softly, craning his neck a little at the strange boy.
Ameliah noticed out of the corner of her eye... Harvey. Jeez, what was up with him and just... standing there? He wasn't exactly the person Am wanted to see, whether it was Eimear's fault or not. Things that had been said still rung in her mind... that he had called her a liar and accused her of breaking off to get Logan. Ameliah chuckled a little at the thought, but it was a more forced and sick laugh than any other. Giving the letter to Levrell, she let him fly out the window. She stood in silence, waiting for Harvey to spit out more lies.

He stood back not wanting to be accussed of trying to read her letter, he hadnt forgotten that day. She had upset him quite a bit that day, and he became someone he wasnt.. but he had changed back to who he was.. thanks to Ella. He frowned a little.. did she chuckle.. well at least something amused her.. he walked towards her.. not saying anything.. there was nothing to be said. Standing a little distance away he called out to his owl "Frost? you in here Bud? Frost?" he said as he waited to see if his familiar owl was around here or not.. but he couldnt see him yet. Should he talk to her.. or not? He didnt know what to do.. this was quite an awkward situation right now.. maybe he would just let her start if she wanted to talk.. if not.. he was outta here for he had no more business here if Frost wasnt here yet.

Ameliah sighed to herself as she heard it was indeed Harvey. Still not sure if she wanted to talk to him, she merely stayed on the pretense of waiting for a reply from Levrell. However, after a few more minutes you could practically feel the akward, so with another sigh, she turned back to him. "Heya, Watson," she said flatly.
