Dear Mom and Dad,
How's everything back home? Everything here is pretty great. I've been having a great time. Met some new friends to. Been having lots of fun with Quidditch. I'm still a beater. The boys are okay. Don't worry, I've been keeping one eye on each of them. I'll come home for Christmas if the work load isn't to bad. Give the twins a hug for me.

Miss you lots,
Emilie

Emilie carefully sealed her letter and threw on a jacket. She walked slowly to the owlery and carefully climbed the icy steps. She entered the owlery and went over to the first school owl she saw. She held the letter out to him. "Take this to Heather and Rodney Dulcedo." she said. The owl grabbed the letter with its beak and flew out the window.

Emilie leaned against the wall and slid down to the floor. She had nothing else to do. She thought maybe if she waited long enough someone might come up to the owlery. She pulled out her wand and began turning her hair different colors. Blue. Purple. Pink. Orange. Yellow. Before turning it back to its original color of dark black.

Emilie looked up when she saw another boy enter the owlery, reading a letter outloud. She immediately recognized the air of 'I'm better than you'. This one had Slytherin written all over him. "Yep, writing home." she answered. She heard him say he was sending his dad a howler. Yep, this one's definately a Slytherin. she thought. "What's your name again?" she asked.

Henry then walked into the owlery and noticed Emilie and another boy. " Hey Emilie! Who's this slytherin punk!?" Henry said to Emilie while looking at the slytherin kid. Henry then whispered to Emilie, "This kid looks like bad news. He's proably like the kid that was mean to me at lunch earlier." Henry then made a creepy look at the slythering. "Lets leave Emilie I can tell this kid is a slytherin and he doesn't seem very nice." Henry said to Emilie hoping she would agree.

Emilie looked over toward the door when she saw Henry walk in. He wanted her to leave with him. "No thanks, I think I'll stay here and see what he has to say." she said. She knew that no student would dare attack a professor, and if they did they would be in serious trouble. She leaned back against the wall and crossed her arms in front of her chest.

"My name's Emilie Dulcedo. 3rd year, Ravenclaw." she said hesitantly. The boy, who'd introduced himself as Nakutro, didn't seem that bad, but she wasn't gonna take chances. "I haven't seen you around before, you a new student?" she asked.

Henry then said, "My name is Henry Bridge and I'm in the wonderful house known as Ravenclaw. Emilie is my sister by the way so I better not see you ever being mean to her, just saying for the future." Henry was not that shocked that Nakutro's dad was mad about him being in slytherin. "Your dad shouldn't disown you just because you're in slytherin. That's just mean and he doesn't seem like a very nice dad." Henry wasn't sure if he sould have made that last coment because, his dad could be really nice and Henry could not be knowing what he's talking about.

Henry then whispers, "That Nakutro is really creepy! Did you see close he was to my face? It was kind of weird that he was that close. I hope I don't see him anytime soon" to Emilie. Henry then yelled, "hey Nakutro i'm sorry that I was mean to you like that, and that I said those mean things about your dad. He proably is a nice man I just don't know him that's all. Anyways I'm sorry" to Nakutro. "not" Henry whispered to Emilie. "Hey how about we call him nut-troll from now on." Henry whispered to Emilie but not as softly. Henry then laughed at his own joke.

"Oh Henry chill out. He doesn't seem that bad. I kind of feel sorry for him. I mean, if dad was like that about us being in Gryffindor, Ben would be the only living member in our family." she said. "Besides, not all Slytherins are pure evil. Like Remy or Ankaa, they're both pretty awesome. Occasional rule breaking, but that's always fun to get involved with.

Henry chuckled a little when Emilie said that Remy was nice. "Uh, Emilie Remy has a lot of times when he get's mad at students. I mean he's not as bad as Dream, which I don't think it's possible to be mean as Dream." Henry said to Emilie. Henry then looked around to make sure that neither Dream Or Remy were there, or any other prefect mainly slytherin. "And Don't you dare tell Remy or Dream that I said either one of them isn't that nice, espcially not Dream. I don't understand that lady at all, She's so mean." Henry added.

Emilie nearly choked when Henry said he thought Dream was mean. "You think Dream is mean?!" she said loudly. "Where did that come from? She's so sweet! It takes an awful lot to get her or Remy mad." she said, absolutely appauled that Henry could possibly think that either of them were mean in any way.

Dream walked into the owlery with Remy's owl Blizzy on her arm, just in time to hear Emilie saying "You think Dream is mean?" Her eyebrows shot up in surprise at not only hearing her name being said but also the context it was said in. "Who thinks I'm mean?" she asked curiously. Then she saw Henry there and she started laughing. "Oh Henry does! Well that doesn't surprise me at all, Emilie. After all the first time I met him was in his detention, and he was a bit of a git. You know how I am when it comes to first years who act that way." she said to her friend while still chuckling. Then she looked at Henry and grinned at him. "Just remember that I'm a seventh year and you're a first year and I could wipe the floor with you. So stop being so challenging, show a little respect and you and I will get along just fine." she said. She had Blizzy fly up onto one of the ledges and tied a small bundle to his leg. "Sending a little christmas present out to the grandparents." she explained to Emilie. "I'm so excited for Christmas, arent you?" she asked them both.

Henry didn't like being called a git. "Who are you calling a git/ when you're the one that's a git!" Henry said to Dream. "Don't you agree that she's a git, Emilie?" Henry asked hoping she'd say yes. Henry then looked back at Dream madly and said, "Yah anyone who calls me a git means I won't get along with them. So if you want to be my friend then you're sadly mistaking. And just so you know (not trying to be too mean) neither me or Emilie are you're friend, and we never will be. Right Emilie?" Henry said to Dream and then said the last sentence to Emilie.

Dream shook her head and start laughing at Henry. "Emilie was my friend before you even came to school, little one. And that temper right there is exactly why you never see me at my nicest. I don't mind if you want to continue acting this way to me. It's fun for me to be mean to those who deserve it, and as long as you keep talking about and to me or Remy like that, that's the only side you're ever going to see of me. When you grow up a little bit and start acting more maturely, then maybe we'll start getting along. In the meantime, I've got lots to do so I'll be seeing you guys around." she said. She gave Emilie a quick hug and then walked out of the owlery after watching Blizzy fly away.

Emilie began laughing at Henry's little rant. "Okay, first of all Henry, no I don't think Dream is a git. Secondly, I'll be Dream's friend because you seem to be under the impression that she's pure evil. Which is partly true, I suppose, but not in the context that you're using it." she said taking a deep breath, "You really need to chill out Henry." she said seriously.

"I need to chill out?! Look at that devil! I hate her so much and I don't see how anyone doesn't hate her. I bet all of her teachers hated her, she was proably really bad in school. What I mean by that is; stupid, doesn't do her work, and fools around/makes to much noise/won't shut up when people want her too. Uh she's such a...a....a...scumbag. God I hate her so much. Sorry for saying such a bad word about her too, but it's what I thought. But, whatever you can like her if you want but I won't ever understand how." Henry said to Emilie. And he ment what he said about Emilie, he really doesn't understand how any could like such a monster.

Dream wasnt even out the door yet when Henry started going off about her. She turned to look at him with a dangerous gleam in her eye. No one talked about Dream like that and got away with it. No one. "You havent learned your lesson about how to treat Prefects, and you havent learned your lesson about me either. If you want to see me at my worst, then I'll show it to you. You want to think I'm so bad when I've only toyed with you so far? Fine then little boy. Have it your way." she said. She pointed her wand at him and said "Crucio!", not caring that it was a forbidden curse. It was exactly something that someone as evil as what Henry thought Dream was, would do, so Dream was more than happy to oblige him.

Henry was so shocked she didn't know that Dream was going to be that evil. "Please stop, I don't want to die!" Henry was winning while he was being tortued. "Please Emilie I'm your brother, make her stop! You don't want to lose your brother do you?!" Henry said to Emilie trying to convice her to get Dream to stop. Henry had a wand in his hand so if Emilie didn't make her stop, or if she didn't stop on her on Henry would do something that would make Dream wish she had never done that to Henry.

Emilie wasn't at all surprised when Dream used an unforgivable on Henry. She wasn't going to deny that Dream had limits and Henry really had pushed her to far. "Don't go to far." she whispered to Dream. She knew that Henry did deserve a little torture after going off on Dream, but she didn't want her to over-do it.

"Yes listen to Emilie, stop using the curse on me before you kill me and before you go to far and get yourself arrested." Henry said, hoping what Emilie said would make her stop, because Henry really doesn't want to die. Henry noticed that Dream wasn't stoping so he pointed his wand at her and said, "Protego!". Henry now hoped that, that would make her stop.

Emilie rolled her eyes. "Henry don't you pay any attention in school? It's a mind curse. It makes you think you're in pain. It's totally mental. It won't kill you. It shouldn't actually physically hurt you at all." she saw Henry use Protego and groaned, "That won't do any good. She's already got you with the curse. A shield charm will do no good at this point." It really bothered her when someone couldn't figure these things out or at least pay enough attention in class. "You can go ahead and teach him a lesson if you want. He needs to get this in his head." she said to Dream.

Henry was so not enjoying this and wanted Dream to stop torturing him really badly. If she stopped he'd be nicer to her from now on. "Dream please stop I promise I'll be nice to you from now on and want say mean things to you. Just please stop, I've learned my lesson I promise." Henry begged to Dream. Henry was hoping that worked and that should would finally stop using the curse on him.

Dream was torn between having pity on Henry and continuing because even his sister agreed that he deserved it. In the end her heart won out and she removed the curse. "Henry, the thought of being arrested doesnt bother me at all because even if it happened, the charges would never stick. I'm the Headmasters daughter and the rest of my family is very influential as well. Not only that, but Remy would whisk me away to somewhere that the authorities would never find me, in a heartbeat if he needed to. Now I'll admit that I have fun being a thorn in people's sides sometimes, but even I dont go around using unforgivable curses all the time. Just don't push me cause my bite is a LOT worse than my bark." she said truthfully.

"Wow you're the Headmasters daughter?! I didn't know that! Also, thanks for setting the curse off of me, I promise I won't be mean to you again. PYSCH!!!" Henry said and laughed. He then pulled out his wand and pointed it at Dream and shouted CRUCIO!!!!!" Henry was now very happy that she let go of the curse becuse she is now being tortued instead. Henry then laughed and said, "Huh Huh HUH!!!! You fell for it now I'm going to curse you even longer since you did that to me, and a whole bunch of bad things before. Who's the strong one now!!!? I'm not going to let go of this curse for a while." Henry was glad he finally got to do this. Henry noticed her being torutred and he enjoyed it so very much, he's finally getting his revenge.

Once Dream had let up on Henry, she hoped that he'd just get over his stupid little issue with her. She was mortified when Henry jumped up and almost immediatly began cursing her. She whipped out her wand and aimed at Henry, "Relashio!" she said. Anyone who touched her friends would pay for it. Her brother was no exception.

Dream was no fool and she had known that a prat like Henry would retaliate no matter what he said so she had put up a shield charm before she'd ever even crucioed Henry. She was about to retaliate again when Emilie attacked her brother for in order to defend her. Dream smiled at Emilie and then pointed her wand at Henry. That's when she did one of the worst things that someone could do to someone. She'd only had to do it two other times, but even those times werent going to be as enjoyable as this one. "Expelliarmus!" she said gleefully. Once Henry's wand was in her hands she snapped it in half and then snapped the two pieces in half as well. She dropped the pieces on the ground and lit them on fire. When there was nothing but ashes left, she looked at Henry with a smirk. "Hope you're able to go to Diagon Alley soon or someone has a spare wand that they're willing to loan you, boy." she said evilly.

"You two girls are so mean, I can't belive you did that especially you Emilie." Henry said very shocked. Henry walked up to Dream stole her wand snap it, threw the peieces on the ground,and stepped on it. Henry looked through the window threw the wand out the window and it landed in the lake, hers was gone as well. "Huh, how do you like me now Dream. You don't have a wand now either. So, be mean to me again and it will be much worse!!" Henry said very angry.

Dream watched Henry try to grab her wand but her shield charm was still in place so nothing happened to it. Instead Dream pulled her fist back and punched Henry hard in the nose. "I suggest you stay away from me little boy, because if I see yo anywhere near me, I will torture you until you run away screaming." she promised him. She looked at Emilie and shook her head. "He's actually related to you? I feel sorry for you. If you love him at all, keep him away from me." she said in warning.

Henry took his wand out before Emilie or Dream had done anything. "Expelliarmus" Henry said while aiming his wand at Emilie. And then he aimed his wand at Dream and said, "Expelliarmus. See you didn't do the spells quick enough so I still do have my wand. Bye, I'm leaving the owlery right now." Henry left with his wand and his hand, and he was happy that he still had it.

OOC: Henry you already posted that you lost your wand. You cant take it back now. :P You do not however have to buy another one. Just say that you went to Ollivanders and got another one. You dont actually have to purchase one. :) I'm disregarding all of your post except where you sya that you left.

BIC: Dream watched Henry leave the owlery and she just shook her head again. He reminded her a lot of another first year who had come to the school and done nothing but start trouble. Everyone in the school had ended up hating him and he'd recently died while in the middle of a fight. Dream really hoped for Emilie's sake that nothing like that happened to Henry. Considering how disagreeable he was though, Dream wouldn't be surprised to find out that someone had slipped him poison in his sleep.

Emilie watched Henry storm out of the Owlery before turning to Dream. "Sorry about him. I guess he holds grudges, but honestly what did you do to make him so mad in the first place? He's been going off about you and Remy nonstop. Not that it's unusual for him to be mad at people, but what happened?" she asked. As far as she knew, Remy had given Henry detention a while ago and ever since, Henry'd hated both Remy and Dream.

Dream looked at Emilie and shrugged. "Henry lit Leo on fire so Remy gave him detention. Then he did lines and cleaned the trophy room. To my obvious delight, Peeves played a prank on him and made the trophies dirty again before Remy and I could inspect them. He cried like a baby and refused to do it. That's all that happened." she said. "He really does need to chill out. He's going to make some very serious enemies, and I'm not just talking about me." she said softly to her friend.

Emilie rolled her eyes when she heard the reason behind Henry's grudge. "Figured it'd be something stupid like that. He tends to over react sometimes. He didn't seem all that excited when he found out about me and Logan." she made face, "Oh well, he'll get used to it, it's not like he has a say in it." she said.

Henry was walking out and he heard what Dream and his sister were saying and he couldn't belive it. "I can't belive my sister would be saying all these mean things about me. After all we've been through." Henry said right to Emilie's face before he left. He couldn't belive that they were calling him a baby, and he was shocked that peeves did that mean joke to him. Henry then looked at Dream and said to her face, "I can't belive you're so mean. And then you go and steal the books out of the Ravenclaw common rooom." Henry then looked at Emilie and said, "Do you still like her after what she's done?! Especially after she stole the books from our common room and won't give them back."

Emilie was a little surprised when Henry came back into the owlery to yell at them some more. Something about how mean they were and how Dream had stolen books from the common room. "Wait, what? Steal books? When did Dream steal books from the common room?" she asked. She turned to Dream, "Did you steal those books?" she asked.

OOC: What exactly is Henry talking about when he says that I stole books out of the Ravenclaw Common Room? Do I need to pay a little visit there? :wacko:

BIC: Dream looked at Henry and arched her eyebrow. "I didn't steal anything from anyone. I dont need your stupid bird books, but you obviously do since you arent nearly as smart as a Ravenclaw is supposed to be. By the way, didn't you leave? Not only that, but I can be a lot meaner. You're very lucky that Remy isn't here right now because then you would really be in trouble for the way you've treated me. Don't worry though Henry. I'll be sure that he knows all about today. I suggest that you spend your time at this school looking over your shoulder constantly, because one of us will probably be there." she said to him softly. Then she walked straight up to him and in front of his face, she did a silent spell that had been talk in her fifth year at school. "BOO!" she said, her voice booming thoughtout the owlery, so loud that it vibrated Henry's shirt. Then she once again made sure that her shiled charm was in place so Henry couldn't be like his Prefect and attack while her back was turned and she walked out of the owlery.

OOC: Dream, there was apparently a thread in the Ravenclaw dorm about books being stolen. However it was started back in August, and just shortly revived.

Logan walked up to the owlery, while signing the bottom of a letter for his mother. On his way up, he heard a lot of yelling. Curious, Logan quickened his step to see what the problem was. One of the voices sounded a bit like Dream, and the other, Henry. He had hoped he was wrong about his guesses, but the minute he reached the top of the stairs, he saw Dream walking out, and she didn't look happy.

"Err, Dream? What's wrong, hun?" He tried calling after her. Furrowing his brow, Logan stepped up the last step and walked in. He saw Emilie and Henry there. Henry didn't look too happy either. Logan looked to Emilie, still holding his letter. "So then, what happened here?" His eyes began shifting between the siblings.

Henry didn't really want to say what happened but he guessed he could tell him. So he said, "Oh nothing's happening, Dream's just being a jerk and threating me for no damn reason. Can you belive her? She's such a jerk and I can't take this anymore." So Henry noticed that Dream was leaning near the window and looking down at the ground, and Henry took out his wand pointed it a Dream and shouted, "Stupify!". Henry was hoping that she'd fall out of the window so Henry wouldn't have to deal with her anymore.

OoC: Henry, Dream's already left the owlery so you can't knock her out the window...

Emilie smiled at Logan when he entered the owlery. His presence always brightened her day. She turned to Henry and glared at him when he started going off on Dream again. "Henry, just stop okay? You're being paranoid. Dream has done nothing that you should be this upset about. You're going to get yourself in serious trouble one of these days if you don't chill out, and I don't mean detention. When Remy finds out about this I wouldn't put it past him to use every known curse, hex, and jinx to straighten you out. Not to mention a lifetime of detention." she said, nearly yelling. She walked over to where Logan stood, "Henry's all upset because Remy gave him detention for setting someone on fire and so now he has a serious vendetta against Remy and Dream." she explained quietly.

Henry didn't lke what his sister was saying about him. "That is so not true! I'm not mad at Dream and Remy, it's just Dream i'm mad at. I'm mainly mad at her becaue she's used crucio on me for no reason. I don't understand how you like her, or how you're her friend she's such a jerk. Just please be careful sis, I know the kind of people like Dream and I don't want her to hurt you like she's done to me." Henry yelled at Emilie not understanding why she won't listen to him.

After Nakutro used Incarsirus on Henry Henry ducked and the spell missed and it bounced to hit Emilie if it didn't miss. "HUH! you missed me with that spell Nakutro, and it was going to hit Emilie instead. You need to aim with your spells better, aka you need some practice. Would you like to have a duel with me sometime? If yes I'll start it at the academy." Henry was saying to Nakutro.
