And like lissa confronts her or something and that's their fight cause Naia like defends it? then if its A- she's just humilated that she did it so wrong but is to prideful to admit it(uncharacteristic of true hufflepuff so it might have to go a different way or if B was the reason then the partner get's either emotionally abusive or she realizes that she was manipulated and then can't admit it to the ultra smart friend she skipped out on? just an idea of course

Naia just began to explain "Well the rumors are about a wand that didn't get snapped cause the student hid it in the castle, and I just assumed hide it in plain site but also really far d-ohmygod." She watched Lissa changed. She didn't think the girl-or-yeah-girl? had touched the wand, so this was confusing. Was it so powerful that even just getting close to it did something? Well, something happened.

Here was Lissa turning into a dude, her shoulders broadening, getting taller, her hair changing, her boobs leaving, and her clothes getting much tighter. Naia let out one giggle, raising an eyebrow, "I'm not gonna say I told you so, but..." Then trailing off she fanned her face a bit to stop from bursting out laughing. This was serious?

She blinked a few times, then scratched her nose and drew her wand. She flicked it singing, what spell is this? Nothing happened of course, as it wasn't a real spell. There was a little wind from her wand though. That was just from the connection and flicking.

Now she tried to think, looking at her deciding Lissa was attractive as a man and women. That wasn't fair. Wrinkling her nose and moving her freckles she decided she like girl Lissa better. Considering. Now she said, "We can ask a teacher? The headmaster? I don't know a gender changing spell."

Naia narrowed her bright eyes still taking in the really sudden change. [/fancypost][/fancypost]

Okay! What stuff, anyone got any ideas?

ooc] best vaca i've ever had but im back! <3 and not in the pursuing her sense. I was thinking more along the lines of "why haven't we talked in a month? not cool man, if you didn't want to be friends anymore you should of said something. what you did was wrong blah blah, bam, we done." if it's out of character we can always think of something else.

i like that last one, but i say first we think of something internal to get us all stirring from our nests first

ooc] oooh that's awesome. I hope you guys have a lot of fun and it works out. sorry about your mom *hugs* and that's fair, ms plotting genius ;) i'll keep up the brainstorm? i can always see Naia just getting depressed and shutting everyone out, but that's also an easy plot route. and i look forward to your response

Her eyes had flicked over every part of the male form before her, and saw that glint in those eyes meaning she was about to do something. She was a little cautious, taking a step back, but there wasn't enough time. She was swooped up in strong arms, her own hands bracing on his/her shoulders and looking up a little indignantly.

Then he or she, or he was so close to her face. His, for convenience, lips were touching her nose, caressing those freckles. And then it was brushing against her lips, and her breath caught. Her heart picking up its pace. And then she was set down, her hand going to touch her lips gingerly, eyebrows furrowed a little. Then she looked at Lissa standing there, smirking and making a joke out of it.

For a moment a scene played in her head. Her stepping forward, standing on her tiptoes, then taking Lissa's face in her hands, and kissing up her neck to her lips after whispering the fun doesn't have to be over.. And then feeling Lissa's hand snake around her waist, and kissing her ba-. No. She frowned more. Her arms crossing she glowered at Lissa.

"Don't do things like that! It's not funny! That....That could of been serious! You could of stayed like that, and what was that! Going to k- what you did! STOP IT!" She then slipped into some Spanish curses and a string of some full formed sentences , before turning around in a pouting fashion. Then she looked back over her shoulder, frowning once more, opening her mouth to say something.

Then she didn't and just quickly pulled off her robes into a sports bra and underwear quickly. Then she walked over to the pool in the corner. She had carried her wand with her and cast a quick bubble head spell, before setting it down and diving in. She would come to surface quickly, with a frightened expression on her face, as a fish had touched her. Why was there a fish in here? Then she set her arms and just was content leaning against the side of the pool with her back to Lissa.

Flexing and then not flexing, and frowning. She thought she looked like a man, girls weren't supposed to be this muscled. It was gross. She of course wasn't actually built like a body builder, just extremely toned, but the seeker thought otherwise. She moved her feet a little, making sure whatever touched her stayed away.

She had this weird fear of dark water, but here she was siting in it. She went to get her wand to light the water, but heard Lissa slowly moving closer. She steeled herself and stayed straight ahead. Sure, it might of been an unexpected outburst, but she felt it was validated. Lissa was always affectionate, and close to crossing lines. On her Birthday she actually kissed her, and Naia, just, that wasn't what friends do.

She glanced up briefly to see the other half naked girl slipping into the water grinning at her. She chewed the side of her cheek and little frowning, but not saying anything. She moved her feet a little to make some more waves under the water. She focused on the water moving again. Trying not focus on the girl next to her, or anything deeper than the water. Just the water.[/fancypost][/fancypost]

She could see her feet fading away into the water. And reaching back she grabbed her wand and tapped her face causing a bubble to grow there. It made her face look wobbly and magnified everything. She had first learned this spell second year when people kept letting off dungbombs in the halls, and this spell was the only way to get through them without dying.

Then she dove down, kicking off the wall to try and catch up. The other girls feet were gone and she just kept following along the wall. Completely terrified. She pushed harder trying to swim faster. Who knew what was down here. She could of swore she felt something touch her ankle. And she was looking back.

Then she emerged into a room with so many books, odd. There was a table with something on it that Lissa was standing next to. Pushing herself out she approached Lissa, "Whatcha got there huh?"It looked really old, and really interesting. [/fancypost][/fancypost]

hmm...maybe he comes to get his wand? and they see a name they don't know? or completely separate he idk honestly that's all i got

it could be a pureblood thing, like he wants to kill all half bloods/ muggle borns? or just hates everyone?

Naia shrugged as she walked closer just letting all the anger siphon off. A little remained, but that was just anger she carried around with her everywhere. Looking at the map she saw her footprints getting closer Lissa, and then her eyes caught something in the corner, I see someone finally found us again, I'm Padfoot, and hello. She grinned slightly, this was made by someone, and they had kind of put themselves in the map. This was amazing, why hadn't she found this before?

Then she noticed what Lissa was staring at. Their professor's name, next to a girl from the year behind them, someone she didn't know well at all. It seemed she was in Lissa's house by the way she listed off the facts about her. What was she doing alone with their Dark Arts teacher?

Turns out, they were going to find out. Creeping along behind Lissa, she watched her slowly push the door open and her breath caught. There was the sallow faced man with a hooked nose, screaming at the crying muggle born girl. Naia's grip on her wand tightened. He put he wand to Merle's head and Naia slowly lifted hers, then she heard him mumble, crucio. And the girl was being tortured. Naia bit her lip unable to move a finger.

Her eyes found Lissa's in one fearful moment and she found the strength she needed. Then she saw a flash of green light and heard the killing curse. Merle was dead. Her whole body froze, as she turned to see the girl getting struck and falling, with a cackle from the man. Without Lissa pulling her away she probably would of stood there, wand raised and shivering until he decided to kill her too.

Lissa seemed to be looking at the map as they ran, Naia's hadn't blinked her eyes still wide. As they came to a wall she saw Lissa looking all around, and she looked at the map, Hey, Mooney here, pull that thing on the bookshelf, and it will open right up. She opened her mouth to tell Lissa but she had already found it, and they were racing down the passageway.

The shock wore off quickly as she ran, and there was a steady trail of tears on her cheek, that she wiped off before Lissa could see, and bit the inside of her cheeks to keep from crying. Professor Snakestripe had used two of the unforgivable curses! Two! The Cruciatus curse to torture the girl and then the killing curse. And he was screaming about mudbloods and purebloods. Naia's hand shook, sure, she was pureblooded. Or everyone thought. No, she was. But, she didn't look anything like her dad, did she? What if her mom had cheated with a muggle? No, her mom wouldn't do that. Her mom would do a lot of things but not that.

Still clutching her wand she trailed behind Lissa, and when they burst into a corridor, soaking wet and in their underwear it was good thing no one was there. Or not yet. She tried to get a look at the map, but it was clutched too tightly in her hand. Wincing she touched her chest, and said, her eyes filled with fear, "What do we do?"

Naia stood there shivering listening to Lissa closely. Her friend was smart. Their only proof would be that Merle was missing, and if he got rid of the body no one would know where she was. Sometimes students do go missing. And they would have to explain what they were doing in that part of the castle, and how they knew he was behind that door. They needed more information.

"I know. I know. You're right. But, we can't let him get away with this, it sounds like this is just the start of something." Her hands were wringing together nervously as Lissa told her that they needed to go to the party. She had totally forgotten about it, "Right, right, act normal, mhmm." Her eyes were darting around anxiously.

She didn't want to leave Lissa, she felt safer with her, and as the girl started walking off, she turned to head back to her dorm room. Then she paused, and raced back pulling Lissa into a tight hug, either from behind or front, whispering, "Be careful please." She looked up into Lissa's eyes, with a pleading look in her own. In her mind a scene played out of Lissa being the one tortured and killed. She wouldn't ever let that happen.

Then she let her go, and still shivering, she headed back to her common room. Where she would be safe, she just had to make the journey. There she would change, write a letter to her dad, and head to the party.

A thank-you card and nothing more. She looked around, sighing a little, and staring out the window. She loved snow, she loved it so much. It made everything look clean, and pure. She stared a few spare flecks fell from the gray sky. She reached up, and opened the window letting the cold breeze blow into her room. She stood there, getting colder and colder by the second.

The breeze was both drying and freezing her. Her teeth were chattering hard, and her eyes were watering. Both because she hadn't blinked since she opened the window and the wind was so cold. Her arms wrapped around her own shoulders and she closed her eyes. She was turning numb, and the way she turned numb made her warm. She had just watched a girl die, all she wanted was to be numb, and not to feel anything. She opened her eyes and looked out at the snow, Merle would never see snow again. Or the sun. Or anything. Because the professor had decided how she was born wasn't good enough. She hadn't done anything wrong! And she was murdered! Naia felt tears threaten to fall again, and they did, and they froze on her cheeks. Gulping once she closed the window, now cold to her core, deciding that was sufficient.

She slowly peeled off her frozen undergarments, before heading into her drawer. There she pulled out what she was going to wear. Something she had bought for this occasion. It was particularly flashy. And she pulled it on quickly, fumbling with the zipper and her freezing hands.

She made her way to bathroom, and pinned her hair up in a bun with some few intricate braids. It looked like she spent some time on it. Then she tapped her face with her wand and there was mascara and lipgloss. Her collarbones were popping, and she seemed shiny, sickly in a pretty way. She cast herself a smile, and then took a deep breath. She smiled again watching her eyes light up. There ya go.

She headed to ball, walking the halls slowly, feeling her skin refuse to warm up. She was permanently numb, forever frozen. When she got to the hall she was greeted by hellos from everyone there. The people that stayed for Christmas had made a bond. It was only during Christmas time that the bond came out to play, but here they all were. She greeted them all back, smiling and moving to stand in a corner to watch them.

Then after awhile she saw male Lissa approaching her, her eyes narrowed. What the heck? Then she was swooped down and kissed. Lissa would feel how cold her skin was, and how cold her unmoving lips were. She didn't kiss him back this time, she just let it happen, before she was stood up and her eyes looked around. Everyone was looking. She looked back to Lissa, who was stumbling through words, "It's whatever." Her voice was dull, and there was a fiery look in her eyes.

Then there was Lissa in loosely fitting clothes explaining her present, and then she was twirling the silver locket in her hands. She breathed, "Wow, thank-you." She then took a step back and opened it, and watched pictures whir through it, her dad, quidditch, her owl, Matty and her together, her mom, Lissa. They whirred through, oh there was snow. It slowed down, and she saw a picture of her dad labeled loved, then Lissa labeled wanted. She squinted a little, but then it was gone and there was Quidditch, labeled passion. Before it seemed to settle on her mom, labeled Wanted. She looked at moving picture of her mother, a beautiful woman, who many said she looked just like.

Now she looked up at Lissa and pulled her into a freezing hug, "Thank-you, thank-you, it's amazing." Then kissing her with her cold lips on the cheek she pulled back. "Yeah, yeah, go get clothes that fit, I mean I'll be right here."

Then she leaned forward again, nipping her shoulder with a grin, "Don't tempt me. Now off you go." She let out an airy giggle.

And the warmth leaking into her. It spread into her neck, where she felt all her anxiety wear away slowly. And it tingled into her fingertips causing that pain feeling you get when you get warm after being too cold. Then into her legs, and she was warm, her pulse loud in her head. Then it was gone, and the warmth remained. She smiled up at Lissa and her comment, murmuring "Means a lot."

Then the girl whisked away off to get dressed. God how Lissa loved to look good. It was almost impressive how she maintained it all. Naia herself rarely wore make-up or dressed up. She was too busy. With...other...things.

Now moving to sit somewhere one of the teachers approached to say something, but it was like they could just feel an air coming off of her, and they turned around. Naia glanced up. "Wait, Professor Tonks?" It was the head of the Hufflepuff House, an Metamorphmagus, something very rare, and she was a spunky kind woman. And as she turned away her purple hair and wide nose marked her usual appearance. "Yes Naia? Are you enjoying yourself?" Naia nodded politely and then Tonks came and sat next to her.

"Naia, what's up? What wrong? What's rubbin you wrong?"

"It's nothing, Professor. I just...I just-"

"Spit it out."

"Let's say, for ease, I have a question. Okay, say something knows something, vaguely wrong is happening in the castle, and someone knows about it, but like it could be dangerous to tell anyone, what would said person do?"

"Is said person you perhaps?"

Naia shook her head, she wasn't lying. She was referring to Lissa.

[color=pink]"Then said person needs to tread carefully and know they can trust me, and the other teachers, and come forward with information."

Naia nodded, and smiled, she had said her and other teachers. Her eyes found a sallow face walking in covered in sweat, and frowned, her eyes hitting the ground. "Okay thank-you." There was Lissa, perfect.

She scurried away quickly before she could screw up further, taking the cupcake and shoving it into her mouth, "Mmm, thank-you. Whatcha been up to?" Real smooth. Naia took another bite letting the sweetness seep into her mouth, and scanning Lissa's dress, "You look beautiful...I meant that dress is beautiful." She grinned, taking another bite of the cupcake. She really liked these. The frosting was the best part by far.

Must be something in the cupcakes, the way the music moved through her. She forced herself not to notice how much Professor Tonks was staring at her closely. She had grown close to the head of her house, how weird she was just clicked with Naia. But right now, she couldn't talk to her, instead she danced the night away.

At Hogsmeade she had a lovely time, even teasing Lissa back a little, and making her carry her around on her back everyone, and the amount of butterbeer the little Hufflepuff put away was almost shocking. She loved that stuff. And for that day she forgot. She forgot about the horrible thing she saw.

New years was okay, and when Lissa kissed her, she kissed her back, giving up the fight. But she also had to bite her tongue to keep from saying something on her mind. It was fine. She was successful.

Time didn't fly by for her at all though. It crawled by. Once she stepped back into that castle she couldn't forget again. She had nightmares every night, seeing Snakestripe killing Merle, Snakestripe killing, Merle asking why she didn't help her. So some nights she just didn't sleep, but she never told anyone. She got through it.

Quidditch, quidditch let her relax her mind for once. After every Snakestripe class she would take her new broom and go practice, and she was getting so much better at the sport because of it. She used to love Defense class, not the teacher, the material, but she couldn't look him in the eye. Those had been the last things Merle had seen. Those awful dark beady things. Quidditch though. They had won the Quidditch cup, mostly by catches from Naia, one game though she had gotten distracted waving to Lissa and the snitch flew right by. Only by Gryffindor's terrible seeker did she win that game. Actually their game against Ravenclaw had been the toughest. And without Lissa cheering her on she didn't know how she would of made that catch. Hufflepuff hadn't won the cup in forever. It felt amazing. And for a week she was on a cloud.

That cloud crashed down when the nightmares came back, and another mudblo-muggleborn was reported missing. Hah. Missing. After more reports came in, she kept glancing at Tonks, who seemed to sense that. But no words were said.

There was a day, a day not different from others. Other than Lissa racing up to her, looking frantic. And then she was crying into her chest and making a scene and not looking so hot. Quickly Naia scooped them into a small corridor rubbing Lissa's back and listening. Her other hand ran through the girl's hair, sort of comfortingly brushing it, "Shh, shh. Everything is going to be alright. Audrey could still be alive ya know. We will stop him okay? We will do it as fast as we can. I'll help you save her okay?" Then she stepped back pulling the girls head up to look right at Naia, her bright eyes darkening, "And listen. I will never let him-anybody hurt you. Ever. Okay? Do you hear me. Never will anyone lay a hand on you."

But we are with each other." There was deeper fear clutching Lissa then Naia. Lissa was being torn apart because her best friend was dead, and she could reasonably be next. Lissa was half-blood. Professor Snakestripe could see her as a next target, unlike Naia who fit his stupid standards. Naia wasn't being torn apart by fear, more by grief, and anger. She felt a lot of anger.

When Lissa asked if she would accompany her, she nodded, "Of course." (okay in the real HP books prefects are chose 5th year, and i think they are in their 5th year? so i'm just gonna pretend like we didn't overlook that. also Head Boy/Girl, is 7th year and that's the big one.) This year had been tough for the Hufflepuff girl, but she was everything Hufflepuff liked. Friendly, hardworking, honest, and humble. She spent her spare time with Lissa, or with Hagrid caring for the castle's creatures. She could now see the thestrals, the mythical black skeleton like horses that pull carriages and things for the school, which can only be seen when you've seen someone die. Hagrid tried to question her about it, but she blew it off saying she had visited her grandmother on her deathbed.

She also had won the Quidditch cup for Hufflepuff, and been doing her prefect duties well, on top of the fact the O.W.L.'s were approaching. You had to get certain O.W.L's to take certain NEWTS. She was hoping to continue in Defense Against the Dark Arts, Charms, Transfiguration, History of Magic, Muggle Studies, Potions, and Care for Magical Creatures. She had been studying too hard recently to dwell much on the murders happening inside the school. She was surprised that the tests hadn't been castle honestly because everyone was finding it hard to focus. She remembered last night while she was making some obscure potion notes, Matty broke down and hugged whispering, "You can't go missing okay." As she assured him, she herself hugged tightly, knowing he could be next. She was glad he wasn't, but she wasn't glad it had been Audrey.

Now walking with Lissa there she noticed at the looks they got, none accusing, they all knew how close Lissa and Audrey were, and the state she was in was only acceptable. Naia had wrapped her hand into Lissa's and rubbed the back of her hand, while she hummed softly as they walked. Not a happy hum, just filling up the quiet hum. Lissa usually did a lot of the talking, and right now she was not in the mood.

The meeting went terrible. Lissa couldn't seem to do anything right, and McGonagall seemed to know they weren't spilling something, and Naia spent the whole time avoiding the smart woman's eyes. She was curious about what it was to be an animagus so she payed attention to that. She knew a lot of the times what your animal form was also happened to be your patronus because it was something deep inside you. Naia had only just mastered the Patronus spell, her's was a raven.

After the lesson on the way back she could feel the storm brewing, and she was prepping herself for it, running through everything in her head. It wasn't helping. Then it happened. Lissa started crying again. After she had thrown a lollipop and screamed about how hard everything was getting. Then she was sprinting off. Naia wasn't gonna have that.

She ran after her hard, and something was spurring her on. People had already parted ways for Lissa so she didn't have much trouble catching up. Running ahead a bit she turned to catch Lissa, forcefully keep her close in a sort of embrace. Both hands around her waist. And she looked up her eyes glowing with a red hot anger, "Yeah it all just sucks doesn't it!" Her voice was calm this far. "You get to try again another day, and I'll be there." Then she let go of the girl her hands balling into fists, not knowing who was around, or who heard, or even where they were, she yelled, "You're still alive! More than Audrey could ask for! And you're gonna spend your time throwing fits?! No! Because you won't be alive much longer if we don't TELL SOMEONE."

She then bit the insides of her cheeks and focused very hard at the bottom of her robes. Her hands were still balled, and she wasn't about to take back what she said, she just felt a little ashamed how she went about saying it. [/fancypost][/fancypost]

ooc, well something has gotta go wrong, it just has to okay. maybe (cuz i am an easy kinda non-complicated angst girl

a) he tries to kill Lissa, with Naia's help they fight back everything is fanastic

b) same thing but Naia gets hurt, minor, major, whatever in the process and it "totally" Lissa's fault ya know cause she ran there so angst

c) same, but Lissa get's hurt instead and Naia just feels supes guilty

d) he plays it cool and starts scheming against them

e) maybe it's a b or c, but the only reason they win is because another teacher helps them, maybe McGonagall because she followed them, or Tonks because she heard them and followed them, or another one

f) he's not in there, and they have to deal with the fact that Lissa practically threw herself to her death

g) uhhhhmmm that's all i got man and of course these can be expanded on

i like the b,c, and e route, but we can incorporate f by like say Naia get's hurt, well he gets away, and Lissa tracks him down with the m map?
