| | |  Fourth-Floor Corridor
 The fourth floor is the quietest floor in all of Hogwarts. Those who have been here long enough and know the layout know this as an obvious fact because the primary features of this floor are the Library and Study Hall. To soften your steps as you make your way around, a carpet drapes the entire floor of the corridor. Remember to keep your voice at a whisper because there's important studying going on in this part of the castle!
You will find large green vases placed in the corners of the corridor as well as a number of portraits. There really isn't anything exciting about the vases, though Peeves is known to pick them up and throw them at unsuspecting passersby -- it is strongly advised that you always stay alert. Somewhere along this corridor, you will come across a long tapestry concealing an old riddle, courtesy of a creature now living in the forest; the riddle has been preserved by staff but concealed, ready to be rediscovered by curious new students.
As for the portraits, you will likely notice right away that most of them are of peaceful landscapes. Nevertheless, you will eventually come across Brutus Scrimgeour (author of The Beaters' Bible), Hengist of Woodcraft (founder of Hogsmeade), and Edward Rabnott (a wizard with three different personalities).

"HEHEHEHE!"
Gleeful snickering could only ever be a good sign, right? Riiiiiiiight? RIGHT.
Suffice it to say, it had been getting a little too quiet again even though he WAS still handing out his gracious gifts, and Peeves was not entirely finished having his fun. And so, off he went, flying and soaring and bobbing and weaving and continuously cartwheeling through every single corridor, flinging magic this way and that to rev up the ol' powers again. And maybe he'd deliver even MORE. Yeeeees.
Cackling bordering on hysterical (and highly unnerving when heard echoing through the corridors), good old Peeves sped through the air, a man on a mission poltergeist with a purpose, waking those superduperpowers uP UP UP and intending to share the chaos love as much as he could.

Over the course of this school year, Aria had become quite attached to hanging out at the Balcony. That's where she was actually heading to today. There was nothing in particular on her agenda, unless you counted sitting flat on the floor and staring out at the grounds or sketching. It was a fine day to relax and clear her head.
Or so she thought.
The sixth year stopped in her tracks along the fourth floor corridor, a small frown gracing her face. "UGH! Peeves!'' Yes, that cackling could only be the poltergeists', and she actually heard him before she saw him. Aria considered hiding from him because he was bound to ruin her mood with his foolishness but... TOO LATE! Peeves was soon in her sight. His sharp, wicked eyes were bound to land on her too. | |

Desiree was a girl on a mission! She made her way down the corridor as fast as she could without running, striding with a sense of purpose. She needed to get to the library before another wombat transformation happened! She’d just remembered a story her dad had told her about his time teaching here. He said there used to be three poltergeists at Hogwarts instead of just one. Somehow a portal containing a monster opened up in the school, and they sent two of them through it. She didn’t know all the details, so she was hoping a trip to the library would answer some of her burning questions. Specifically, was there a way to open that portal back up? And could they send Peeves through it this time?
Speak of the devil poltergeist… She heard the noise pollution that was Peeves’s cackling as she turned a corner. Ordinarily that would’ve been her cue to head in the opposite direction, but now she wanted payback. No one made a monster of Desiree Yvette Marchand and got away with it!
What’s so funny, Peeves? Thought of a new way to ruin someone’s life? She thought but stopped short of saying the words out loud when she saw another girl (Aria) in the corridor. There was nothing else he could do to her that was worse than turning her into an ugly animal, but she wouldn’t endanger someone else by antagonizing him. Instead, she approached quietly and whispered, “Did he do anything to you?” If he did, he had exactly three seconds to stop cackling and undo it before her wand came out!

There was nothing worse then disappearing and not able to turn back or have antone see you, he hated this 'gift' that he recieved. He absolutely hated being invisible and not able to change back. [I]"Bravo Peeves are you happy now?!"[i] He thought angrily to himself. He was on a mission, a misson to find him and give him a piece of his mind.
Although he haven't seen him since he gave him his powers, he knew that he was always up to no good. Hearing a cackling laughter that filled the corridor, he knew he finally found him. "Got you now you evil devil!" Rounding around the corner he caught a sight of him flying around the corridor flinging magic everywhere. Oh... no he wasn't going to harm anyone else on his watch, not now or any time soon.
Seeing he wasn't alone, he nodded at Aria and Desiree. "Please tell me that he didn't get you two as well, I hate being a chameleon!" He hated feeling like he had the Disillusionment charm on him and not able to lift it. From the looks of it, he wasn't the only one who appears to be mad at what Peeves did to them. He knew he wasn't alone, he seen Ash and them have anywhere from flowers to turning into a llama. He was tired of it, he wanted back to normal now Peeves had his fun.

Professor Paton always liked the forth floor corridors. Even back in her own days attending Hogwarts. It was funny to think how it was still so quiet as she walked up and down the corridors making sure no one was getting into trouble. So far she hadn't come across anything out of the ordinary. At least that's what she had been thinking before she had heard the all too familiar cackling of the one and only Peeves.
Laughter such as that could only mean one that. Peeves was up to no good. As always.
It was with quick paced steps that Hady made her way down the corridor in the direction she had heard the cackling coming from. Or so she had hoped in order to confront the poltergeist. What she came upon was several students instead. "Is everyone alright here? I thought I had heard Peeves?" Even as she spoke, the women was already looking each of them over and up and down the corridor. | |

Aria heard the footsteps but didn't turn around because she was way too busy keeping an eye out for any trouble. “Doesn’t seem like he did,’’ the Slytherin replied, finally glancing at Desiree. “I mean I’m not erupting with sneezes or in hives or anything.” As she said the words, it only then occurred to her the level of relief that went through her. “Hi, Tadhg!’’ Oh yes, Aria knew all about her Housemate’s woes from the powers he had been given. “Well, a lot of you know I start mini tornadoes based on my mood mostly.” She shuddered. “Bad moods equal bigger tornadoes so I really don’t want to have one right now.’’
It was no surprise that Peeves’ cackling had drawn yet another someone. “You did, Professor! He was in that direction.” Aria pointed and promptly, a strong blast of wind shot down the corridor from her fingertips. Two of the green vases fell to the floor with resonating crashes. “OH NO! I didn’t mean to!’’ Her hand was quickly lowered, distress written all over her pretty face. | |

Upon close enough inspection each of the students before her appeared to be alright. Well about as alright as anyone was as of recently with all of these newfound 'gifts' that have been bestowed on so many students and staff. Unfortunately the three students in the corridor were some that had been affected. If only there was something she could do to be of some sort of help to them, to any of them. It was disheartening being a professor and not being able to do anything to better anyone's current situations as they were all so random.
"It comes as no surprise that I missed him. He's as mischievous as ever." Hady clearly remembered her days here as a student and how Peeves annoyed everyone then. He never seems to give up. Something had to be done though, he couldn't keep going around doing as he pleased. No sooner had she managed to get the words out had vases fallen over with a crash. Oh, dear. See?! The stress these children were going through when they weren't even able to control what was going on. "Not to worry, not to worry. No harm done." With a soft comforting smile, Hady pulled out her wand and quietly casting 'Reparo' to mend the vases. "There. Good as new." | |

Such was her embarrassment and upset over the vases that Ms. McLeod failed to remember that they could easily be mended with a simple Charm - a Charm that she herself had mastered sometime ago. Instead, she just stared at the broken pieces, thinking that she had destroyed valuable School property. Those hands of hers now curled into fists and her hands folded against her chest as though she were determined to hide them away forever.
At least Paton didn’t lose her head over the entire situation. Aria managed a weak, grateful smile at the woman. “Thank you,’’ she muttered. But Aria remained very much upset; it just wasn’t about the vases, she supposed. It was also about the powers. She LOATHED hers. “Professor,’’ the girl began dully. “Is there any way yet that we can get rid of these powers? I’m always afraid that I’ll accidentally hurt someone.” | |

This was becoming a bigger issue with everyday that passed. All of the stress it was putting on everyone was getting to be too much, namely for those that were dealing with 'powers'. Some of these kids like about on the verge of a nervous breakdown and it wasn't fair to any of them. How were they meant to focus on a lesson or even have a meal when they couldn't control when these bursts of 'powers' were going to happen. Not to mention the increase of incidents taking place was much higher than it had been before the holidays. They really needed to get this solved quickly.
"You're welcome," Hady replied softly. It was so easy to see the distress in Ms. McLeod's stance. She didn't know how she was remaining this calm anymore but it wouldn't help anyone if she got overly upset. "We are doing everything we can to find out a way to get rid of these powers for good. We will not stop until we do." Every adult in this school was working on it. They were going to solve this. "I'm sure you've tried to control it before but right now it's much to chaotic? Now this may sounded silly but does does having your hands in your pockets or wearing gloves have any effect on this at all?" Not that she expected Aria to do this constantly but she was curious if there were ways around some of these 'powers'.

Professor Paton was right: some days things were so bad with her powers that Aria felt as though that breakdown was just around the corner. Some days, she felt apathetic. Other days, annoyed. Of course, these feelings could be chalked up to hormones but she knew it had to do with her powers as well. Today seemed to be a mixture of all three of those feelings.
But Aria nodded at Paton’s reassurance. There wasn’t a single hint of doubt that the professors were on this case. Let’s not forget that some of them were affected themselves so it would make a ton of sense they want to be free of the pesky thing as well. “I usually tuck my hands under my armpits,’’ the sixth year commented in the same dull tone. “It helps. But I will try the gloves.” Merlin knew if the gloves would be ripped if her power became too strong, or just as bad, if the gloves would be forced off of her hands. “Thanks again for your help, professor. I’ll see you around.” A small smile was offered to everyone gathered there before she continued her journey to the balcony. | |
