Title: Perhaps the return
Description: perhaps a visit...
marixoxella - April 17, 2008 12:38 AM (GMT)
Maybe it was too early. Maybe she shouldn't have come.
She wore a cloak. A black one. It concieled her clothes, her eyes, and her identity. Not like it mattered. She hadn't gone emo or anything. It just all felt very strange. Maybe she was just scared of what she would find. She had disappeared so suddenly.
Again.
They probably hated her. For ditching charms, school, her friends... Her life.
She stepped onto the train and felt a familiar feeling rush through her. It caused her to blush. Her hands fingered the doors unsurely.
Maybe it wasn't the right time.
She reached down to pick up what once would have a been kitty basket but, of course, it wasn't there. Just a stupid force of habit. The auburn haired girl bit her lip to hold back tears and continued into the train.
Mari walked through the Hogwarts Express and came onto an empty compartment. She sat down and looked out the window, scrutinizing all those walking outside. They were both gone and they weren't coming back. Not her dad.
Not Aqua.
Maybe she shouldn't have come after all.

Chase stepped through the barrier again. He was followed by a house elf that just wouldn't leave him be until it saw he got on the train. But he had now been on the train for a few minutes. "Nemo. Please. Go do something el-" He hadn't finished even when the elf vanished.
Chase found the only semi-empty compartment and gave in to knocking. He had been walking through the train long enough to figure out that this would be the only place he could fit. Opening the compartment door and stepping in he smiled at whoever was there and found himself imagining names. "Mind if I join you -?" Chase asked sending the person a slight smile. "I'm Chase Summerview by the way..."

Regina walked onto the train. She picked up her cat, Bandit. She couldn't wait to go back to Hogwarts. That summer she had gotten a Saw-Whet owl named Itty Bit. It was so tiny that it could fit in her hand. She walked onto the train holding Bandit and Itty. She walked down the aisle where she saw Mari Maeda. She wanted to see her, to let her know that she was there for her. She opened the door slowly. "Hey Mari, mind if I come in?" She stood there a moment waiting or her to answer.
Emma Potter - April 17, 2008 12:48 AM (GMT)
Emma had been helping loading the train, a prefect duty that wasnt one of her favorites. Last year she somehow convinced the headmaster to let her fly instead of go by train, but this year that plea didnt help her very much. So, she was now stuck on the train, helping first years get situated. Slowly the crowd thinned out, and Emma knew it was time to go find a compartment.
With Leala, her female greyhound by her side, she went in search of a comparment. Quickly she found one that she thought was empty. Opening the door, she quickly put her luggage up on the storage racks, not paying attention to the room. Turning around, she gasped to find Mari sitting down in the compartment, wearing a black cape. "Oh my god.." she said, a smile quickly appearing across her face. "MARI!" she yelled, attacking her friend with a hug.
Releasing her friend from a death grip, Emma looked around to find Chase and Regina. "Hey guys!"
marixoxella - April 17, 2008 12:54 AM (GMT)
Mari looked up and smiled when she saw a younger student come in and ask to sit down.
"Sure," she responded in a voice that sounded like her but she hadn't gotten re-familiarized with it, "seat with me is always free! Nice to meet you I'm Mari."
She was astounded at how lightly polite she was being.
Suddenly the door reopened and there was Regina. Mari's smile faltered slightly but remained as Regina seemed to be nice to her.
"Sure you can join."
She was suddenly attacked by Emma who had embraced her suddenly, "nice to see you too."
5@v3 - April 17, 2008 12:57 AM (GMT)
Chase had seated himself when the other two girls came in. One, he knew as Emma, and one he had no clue. "Uh... Yeah! Pleasure!" He said with a smile as Mari said her name, but he hadn't the time to say anything else when Emma attacked Mari. "Whoh! Em! Calm down, she's just a person. No need to go crazy hug of death on the poor girl!"
Half-BloodPrincess13 - April 17, 2008 01:09 AM (GMT)
Waiting for Emma to release her death grip on Mari, she talked to the boy. "Hi, I'm Regina. Nice to meet you!" She turned to Mari. "Hey, where's Aqua?" She pulled out her wand and stared at it. "I'm sorry if I seem sad at all. I'm a sympathy feeler. When one person is sad, I'm sad with them.." She rushed over to join Emma in the death grip, though it wasn't so... death-grippy, more like a hug you give someone at a funeral that just lost their husband. She stayed over there for a while then took out Itty and opened the window a tiny crack for her. "There you go Itty.."
EDIT: I edited the Aqua thing.
Mark_EmmaWatsonFan - April 17, 2008 01:19 AM (GMT)
Mark stepped up onto the train with a yawn. Another year another early morning. He rubbed the sleep from his eyes and cast a simple levitating spell on his trunk. It followed slowly behind him as he walked down the corridor, peering into the compartments looking for one to travel in for the journey.
Slytherin's?.....no, annoying kids from my potions class....nope he thought to himself as he trawled along looking at his option. He eventually came to a compartment full of people he knew. There was Chase, Regina, Emma and a someone in a black cloak he couldnt make out form here. He pushed the doors opened and smiled to the crowd "Hope you dont mind?" he asked as he walked over to his girlfriend and gave her a kiss.
"Who's the newbie?" he asked as he craned his neck to get a better look at the cloaked figure. His mouth fell open as he saw who it was, "Mari...?" he stuttered wondering what to make of her return. She used to be his best friend afterall but had just dissapeared without so much as a note.
Emma Potter - April 17, 2008 01:21 AM (GMT)
Emma smiled, and sat back down, turning to talk to Chase while Regina hugged Mari. "I haven't seen her forever. And I didnt hug her that hard" she said with a grin. Tying her brown hair back into a pony tail, Emma heard Regina ask about aqua. "Yea, where is Aqua?" Emma asked in a calm, carrying tone.
Then, Mark walked in. Kissing him back, she was about to answer his question about the "newbie" but he quickly figured it out. Smiling, she moved over so he could sit down next to her.
marixoxella - April 17, 2008 01:40 AM (GMT)
Mari smiled as Chase tried to stand up for her in order to keep the girls from squeezing the life out of her, "it's alright, I'm used to it."
Mari's heart slightly dropped as she heard the name of her former kitten, she quickly choked, "Aqua is--"
She stopped when the compartment door reopened and in entered...
Mark. Her gaze froze slightly as she watched him look in.
Still as awesomely cute as usual she blushed at her thought, embarassed as she saw him kiss Emma.
Oh yeah.
She mentally smacked herself for thinking that about Emma's boyfriend.
Mari was knocked out of her reverie when Mark said her name. He always said her name so different than everyone else.
"Hey," she managed to say in a ragged voice and felt her heart drop again when Emma repeated Regina's former question about Aqua.
"Aqua's dead."
Emma Potter - April 17, 2008 02:00 AM (GMT)
Emma let out a soft "Oh." when Mari mentioned that Aqua was dead. She knew how much Mari had loved that kitten, and Emma couldnt imagined loosing Leala. But what do you say to someone who lost a pet?
Quickly, she thought about different things to say. Looking up at Mark, she thought something would come to her mind, but unfortunately nothing did. Finally she politely said.."I remember Aqua was very adorable.".
Mark_EmmaWatsonFan - April 17, 2008 02:02 AM (GMT)
Mark waited after mari said hi, expecting her to carry on. Where had she been all this time, why did she get up and leave so suddenly? Oh well it looks like it would have to wait. He walked over to his old best friend and gave her a hug.
"You've been away too long, but im glad your all in one piece all the same!" he said with a smile. "I though you'd gone off to save the world or something!" he finished before stepping back and taking in her apparent new look.
"Whats with the new get up?" he asked as he stepped back and grasped Emma's hand, gesturing to her Mari's clothes, every piece she was wearing was black.
Emma Potter - April 17, 2008 02:25 AM (GMT)
Emma felt Mark take her hand and hold it. Giving him a small smile, she was about to say something when he referred to Mari's new outfit. Up to that point she had not noticed it, Em had been to focused on the happy fact that Mari was back. Now taking a more detailed look she realized that Mari was all in black.
Odd, she thought to herself, usually Mari was a happy, colorful dresser, like Emma. Looking out the window, she saw her reflection. Emma was wearing jean capris and a pink polo. Looking around, she asked.."So how was everyone's summers?"
CassieWink - April 17, 2008 03:22 AM (GMT)
Cassie had been doing Remy's job, cause he bombed at it, and just because she loved meeting all the new people. Suddenly a new compartment caught her eye, one she hadnt been in yet. She threw her hair out of its ponytail adjusting her shorts smiling. She had on a pair of cute jean shorts and a blue cami. She walked in leaning against the door frame. "Hey Guys" she said smiling broadly.
5@v3 - April 17, 2008 03:26 AM (GMT)
Chase had been about to answer Emma's question when in came... Does it even need to be typed? Cassie Jordyn. Chase smiled from the place he was sitting and made room for her. He didn't care if everybody else had to move, he would make room! "Miss Cassie." He said in a greeting tone. Chase turned back to Emma. "Same thing... Boring."
Half-BloodPrincess13 - April 17, 2008 05:09 AM (GMT)
"Oh Mari, I'm so sorry.." Regina said. Until Mark had pointed out Mari's new look, she hadn't noticed either. She liked black. Even though it wasn't really a color, she still liked it. She had on a black happy bunny hoodie that said 'Cute but Phsyco' and had Happy Bunny in a straight jacket. Remembering her first train ride, she saw Aqua a cute cat indeed. She put Bandit up, not wanting to upset Mari anymore. "Don't you hate it when you lose a cat? Especially a kitten that was close to your heart?" she remembered all of the repressed memories of seeing all of her previous cats go to the vet and never come back.. Of course they all had untreatable health or they peed in the house because they couldn't be trained. She was glad she still hadn't lost Bandit though. If that would have happened, she didn't know what she would have done.
"Oh, over the summer, I got my hair dyed. Brown, you see? I love it now. Although it's a bit unorthidox, I may put in some green streaks. I would look great, huh?" Regina laughed. Of course, she loved her house, although some of its members were a bit.. prejudiced against muggle borns. She didn't mind hanging out with people of all houses. All of a sudden, a girl came in. The boy knew her. Her name was Cassie. Although she hadn't noticed, Mark had come in also. "Hey Mark!" she said, finally recognizing his presence.
OOC: I put a lot of effort into this post. lol. no I didn't really, it just flowed out lol. thank goodness I don't have writer's block right now. :P
Emma Potter - April 17, 2008 11:29 AM (GMT)
OOC: YAy for no writer's block! ^_^
BIC: Em looked over to see Cassie come in, and Chase making room for her immediately. "Hey Cass." she said to her friend, who would probably be taking the seat next to her that Chase had just made room for. "I've got a twins delivery for you." she said with a grin, knowing that only Cassie would know what she was talking about. Cassie and Emma had been playing pranks all year long, and while home over the summer, Em's twin sisters had made some new prank items for Cassie.
Hearing Regan talk about her hair, Emma looked over. "I like the brunette color on you. It's cute." she said happily, before adding "Though green streaks could look really cute."
marixoxella - April 17, 2008 11:08 PM (GMT)
"It's alright Regina. I really do like your new brown hair, though." Mari shrugged off the comment and responded Emma's, "Yea Aqua was cute. I mean.... I know it's kinda stupid to mourn over a cat since its not a human or anything but she was special to me. I don't really wanna get into the details of her passing away."
Mari snorted at Mark's comment about her clothing, "I'm in a mourning period for um, Aqua since it's kinda late to mourn for my dad."
Her blue eyes gazed at Mark for a moment longer than the others but glanced away, hoping it wasn't noticed. He always had a way of making even the sadest of things funny.
She looked around and saw Cassie enter, "hey Cassie."
Emma Potter - April 18, 2008 12:48 AM (GMT)
Emma looked around, and noticed a tall figure standing outside of the comparment. Confused, she motioned for him to come in, but instead the person stood out there and knocked. "Umm..I guess I'll get that." she said oddly as she got up, and left, opening the door. Quickly the guy pulled her out of the comparment. She listened to what he told her to do.
Going back into the comparment, she did not look at anyone else, except Mari. "Mari he wants to speak to you to. Only you." she said, snapping her fingers and watching as Leala came to her side. Emma didnt dare look at Mark. After grabbing her jacket, she walked back out of the comparment and waited for Mari to join her and the guy.
marixoxella - April 18, 2008 01:05 AM (GMT)
Mari watched as Emma was pulled out of the compartment and returned immediately after, indicating to Mari to follow her. Mari stood quickly and stepped outside curiously. As soon as she was out with Emma, the man that had spoken to Emma was join by two other men that looked like goons. They grabbed both girls and dragged them away toward the end of the train.
Mari struggled with them and was unable to get to her wand. The goons and their ringleader took them into a spacious compartment that was completely dark.
"Hey!" Mari glared at them when Emma and her were let go, "What do you think you're doing?"
The man who had brought them in stepped behind them and turned on a light, "this."
Mari's eyes became dialated with the sudden brightness and had to blink a couple times to understand what was going on and gasped when she realized where they were.
Emma and herself were in a fashion studio inside the train (most likely magicked in).
Emma Potter - April 18, 2008 01:17 AM (GMT)
Emma was not as excited as Mari about the fashion idea or the fact that she was being pulled away by goons. Immediately she asked the man, "Can I go back and tell my friends where I am so they aren's worried?" she asked, before hearing one of the goons grunt.."Don't fret your little head about it.".
Em just looked at him, before glancing over at Mari. Before she knew what was happening, someone had thrusted shorts into her hands and a short pink top. "You want me to wear this?" she asked, before being pushed into a dressing area. What is Mark going to think? she thought to herself, before pulling out her new iphone and began to text him. She sent him the following..
Can't tell u wat is going on. Don't be stupid. Luv ya.
After hitting send, she looked around to see a female dressing/hair person rushing over to Mari with clothes in her hand. "This is going to be a long day." she muttered to herself while looking at the clothing.
marixoxella - April 18, 2008 01:40 AM (GMT)
Mari frowned when the goon refused to let Emma tell the rest of her friends about the sudden photoshoot but saw her texting, guessing she was probably sending Mark a message.
The man who seemed in his early 20s handed Mari an aquamarine sequine dress and leaned over to whisper in her hair, "i think this one will match your eyes. Black isn't your color."
Mari froze and blushed, focusing her attention on him for the first time. He had light brown hair, was a bit shorter than Mark, and had bright green eyes.
Nice.
Mari took the clothes and rushed to the changing section, throwing on the dress quickly, her face crimson. When she finished, Mari stepped out, looking quite different than when she had when she had stepped onto the train in the beginning.
She looked over at Emma and giggled to see her in mini's.
"Hoochie," was the only word that could be heard from her giggles.
Emma Potter - April 18, 2008 01:50 AM (GMT)
Emma stepped out of the dressing area. Her hair was brown and curly with swoop bangs. The shorts were extremely faded and the top, Emma didnt even want to look at the top. It revealed her extremely defined abs and her belly button piercing. Walking out with flip-flops on, she glanced over at Mari who was giggling, and muttered "hoochie".
"Well arent you miss summer babe." one of the men said to her as she walked over to where the makeup chick was pointing her to. Smiling politely, she laughed, acting like she was fine to be basically wearing nothing. Someone please get me a hoodie or something! she screamed in her head, looking at the mirror in disgust.
"Your a metamorphagus right, Honey?" the girl asked who was probably in her 20s. "Yea." Emma replied, letting the woman apply makeup to her eyelids.
Half-BloodPrincess13 - April 18, 2008 03:49 PM (GMT)
Regina looked at the door when she heard the knocking. It was a man. Emma got up to see what he wanted. When she came back immediately after, she was puzzled because she was looking at Mari only. As they both left, she saw them, the man, and two other men going to the back of the train. 'Hmm..' she said to herself. She was going to follow, but she didn't know what the two men wanted. She wanted to text Emma, but didn't have her cell number and didn't want anyone to get hurt. "C-Word" (she didn't say C-Word she said the word) she said under her breath. She put Itty up. "Hey guys, I'm gonna find the lunch trolley, I'm kind of hungry."
She looked one way, then another as if she really was going to go find it then decided on the back of the train. She walked slowly, calmly. As she got near the back, she noticed something back there that she had never noticed before. It was kind of like a photo studio. She peeked her eyes into the window. The blinds half-covered her view. When she saw Emma she tried to giggle, but held it back. When she saw Mari in a bright blue dress, she remembered what Mari looked like again. This whole ride she had seen her in black. 'Now that's Mari.' she said in her head. When she saw what they were putting Mari and Emma through, she was surprised that they were taking it. 'I won't do anything yet. I'll just wait and watch. Let me find a compartment really quick in case I need to hide.' She walked around when she spied an empty one. 'Perfect. I'll hide underneath the seats, I'm small enough to where I'll fit. It was only a few doors down from the mysterious photo place too. She went back to watching. 'Oh my gosh...' she though in a laughing tone.
marixoxella - April 18, 2008 09:10 PM (GMT)
As Mari watched Emma go over to the make up artist, she thought she saw a flutter of blinds. Thinking it was just the wind, Mari ignored it and was lead over to another artist by the light brown haired man.
"My name's Ryan, by the way," he smiled down at her.
"Cool?" She grinned, unsure of what to say.
Ryan walked away and Mari allowed the goth-looking artist to do her make up.
"So what are Emma and I supposed to do anyway?" Mari asked, trying to start a conversation with the woman.
"Pose and be photographed of course, what did you think it was?" the woman asked sarcastically, applying a large amount of blush on her cheeks.
Mari coughed slightly from the amount getting in her mouth and nostrils.
((OOC: LOL!!))
CassieWink - April 18, 2008 09:37 PM (GMT)
Cassie grinned at them and nodded her head to her friends as suddenly Emma and Mari were called out. She sat next to Chase and watched as Regina followed. She looked around uncomfortably now stuck in the compartment with mark and Chase. "This is one of those a boomer kicked me in the gut in from of the mates feelings" she said wth a slight laugh, motioning for Mark to sit.
Emma Potter - April 18, 2008 10:53 PM (GMT)
After hearing one of the head guys shout to one of the helpers (goons) to go get the others from her compartment, she watched as the guy left before starting to text. This time she texted Cassie writing,
Cass, follow the guys. Save me! I am dying over here from way to much fashion, makeup etc.
After closing her phone, she looked at the makeup artist, who then added on to her previous comment to Mari. "First you girls are doing some single shots in different outfits, and then we will do a group shot with the others." Looking at herself in the mirror, she smiled, liking how the makeup artist twirled and curled some of her hair into small clips.
"Let's Go Emma." said a man's voice she had not heard before. Turning around she saw a very young and cute guy. "I'm the Photographer. I'll take you while Mari is still getting ready."
Following the guy into another room, she smiled as it was set up a beach type area. "So what am I supposed to do?" she asked. Quickly he replied.."Just give me a very, hoochie look.". Rolling her eyes, she quickly got into a pose and heard the camera click. After several minutes of more poses and more clicking, he said.."Perfect Emma. You're a natural.".
Grinning she walked over, "Can I go meet my friends before I get dressed in my next outfit?" she asked, and quickly thanked him when he said yes. Running back to the dressing room, she put back on her old outfit and put her hair up in a messy bun. She would wait outside of the comparment for her friends and the helper guy who was escorting them to come back.
marixoxella - April 18, 2008 11:15 PM (GMT)
Mari watched Ryan take Emma in first and begin shooting her pictures. Mari nervously twisted and untwisted her hands on the dress. The make up artist quickly slapped her hands angrily.
"Don't mess up the dress just because you'll mess up in the shoot," the goth-lady glared down at the wrinkled dress and finished up the lipgloss, "Alright you look great, go over to Ryan now."
Mari bit her lip down after feeling very hurt by the comment which did everything other than lessen her nerves. Now her heart was pumping. What was this for anyway?
"Mari?" his voice called her over and made her stand in front of a Paris sort of background, "There you are."
He smiled at her and led her to where she was to stand. Mari spun in a circle slightly to allow the wrinkles to straighten themselves and straightened herself.
"S-so what should I, um, do?" Mari blubbered out unprofessionally.
"Pose as best as you can," Ryan grinned and adjusted the camera on his tripod, "pretend you're a movie star fresh in the city of love!"
Mari awkwardly tried her best smile but her cheeks were glowing so red, it was hard to concentrate. She turned a few times and put her hands on her hips but her rigid posture did not deter.
"Mari, Mari, stop," Ryan shook his head and looked at her, symphathetic, "we picked you and Emma because you seemed the most photogenically suitable for this."
"What's.. this?" Mari indicated around herself, "what are we photoshooting for?"
"Witch Weekly of course," the photographer showed off his pure white smile, "So I'd like you to try something."
Mari nodded slowly, "Mari what you do is close your eyes." She obeyed, "and now, since we're in the city of love, imagine being in love."
Imagine it? Ha! I've felt it. Mari snorted internally.
"Now picture your expression if the one you loved was facing you and told you they loved you as well."
Mari opened her blue eyes slowly and stared straight at the camera, a small smile creeping on her lip and a soft look in her eyes.
"Perfect," Ryan began to snap pictures as Mari's posture and facial expressions changed.
When they were finished, Mari gave a big sigh and rubbed her neck, "this is more exhausting than it looks."
"Well," Ryan smiled smugly and helped her off, "the look on your face showed you must be very in love with whatever you were thinking about."
Mari's face turned crimson and she swished away from him, feeling very embarassed. She went to look for Emma and saw her waiting outside.
"Hey," Mari forgot to change back into her old clothes and was very keen on seeing her friend again.
Emma Potter - April 19, 2008 12:38 AM (GMT)
Emma turned around, glancing over Mari. "Oh you didnt get time to change." she said with a smile, glancing down at her bermuda jeans and pink polo. "I'm sure they'll let you change while the others are taking their photos. I think we get a little break." she added, grinning at Mari. "So what's up?" she asked casually, leaning against the dorm frame. She already knew about Aqua, but she wanted to know what Mari had been up to besides that. Maybe Mari went somewhere for summer vacation that she liked.
marixoxella - April 19, 2008 01:50 AM (GMT)
Mari grinned at Emma, "Yeah I'll change later."
She followed Emma's example and leaned against the wall as well, "EH, Nothing's really up. I don't really like to talk about... um, why I was gone..."
Mari was kind of uncomfortable with what had happened to her over the sudden vacation she had had.
But this was her friend and she was sure it wouldn't make a difference, knowing her friends (like Emma and Mark), they would probably find out some other way. Perhaps with more cunning ways.
"BUt," she grinned at Emma, "I'll tell you, just cause I think you're special enough to know."
"Um," Mari sighed and began to remember how it all happened, "it all started with me in my room. An owl came to my window, a letter attached. I opened the window, let it in, and opened the letter. A spoon fell out. All the letter said was, portkey inside, grab onto it by noon. Well, it was 11:59, so without thinking, I grabbed it and well... I was taken through the portkey. I arrived in my city in Germany.
My father was waiting there for me. He had a wand in his hand. Everything else was pretty much a blur. It happened so fast. He grabbed me, made sure I had my wand on me and we flew on his firebolt to the Black Forest in middle Germany. It was supposed to be a surprise trip, a late birthday present."
Mari smiled at the memory of camping out in the woods, "but things went really wrong. After staying there for a week, I heard sounds in the woods. Footsteps. These men in black cloaks appeared and grabbed my dad and me. They apparated us separately. The man who took me, I didnt really see or talk to him, we ended up in a village, I don't really know where. He knocked me out with his foot and next thing i know--
I'm waking up in a hospital with my mother and sister at my side. I asked what had happened and my mom told me I had been found unconcious somewhere in north Austria and they knew who I was because I had my Hogwarts ID with me.
I asked what happened to dad and my mom started crying. My little sister said they had only found me. And now, three months later, he's still missing.
Everyone says he's dead but I don't know. I didn't tell my mom what had happened. I just made something up. Didn't want to scare her.... I think there's something more to the story, something else..."
Mari turned to Emma seriously, "I think he's still alive. I just have no idea where to start."
((OOC: I wanna make the photoshoot a scam. That the Ryan guy is the ringleader in the whole thing and that he wants to kidnap Mari and ask for a ransom of money from the Headmaster or something... I don't know. Improvise!!))
Half-BloodPrincess13 - April 19, 2008 02:18 AM (GMT)
After hearing one of the head guys shout to one of the helpers (goons) to go get the others from her compartment.
"Oh god!" She ran to the empty compartment. She went under the empty seats just in time to see the man walk by. She cast the charm to make her blend into the surroundings. By the time she saw the others walk by, she was out from under the seats, but she still had the charm on. Mari and Emma were out there, talking. She opened the door. it was far enough away from them that they wouldn't notice. She went up to Mari. She said, "Mari, I was watching at the window. If you saw the shades wiggle, that was me. I'm going to stay out here and watch. If anything happens, I'll come in there with this charm still on me and I will do anything to protect you guys. I think this thing might be a scam. They wouldn't dress you guys up like that for Witch Weekly. Don't tell Emma about this." She walked off to the other side of the aisle. She waited for them to go back in, but in the meantime she tried to remember defense spells and how to cast them. If she had to, she would definitely use crucio. She knew it was like, illegal, but she really would only use it on the goons and their ringleader.
One of them came out. "Hey, was there another girl with you. Ryan says he saw a brown haired girl in there with you." she stayed as quiet as possible waiting for their reply. "S-word," (once again, she said the word) she muttered under her breath. She put the Conjunctivitus Curse on the goon to affect his vision. She made sure his vision would be affected slowly. He went back inside and not too long after she heard him crashing into things. "HEY!! YOU"RE WRECKING THE EQUIPMENT!" she heard the ringleader say scream.
Emma Potter - April 19, 2008 03:04 AM (GMT)
Emma listened to Mari's story, taking it in word for word. Finally all she could utter was "Wow.", that was one hell of a summer vacation. She didnt exactly know what to say or do, but she wasnt a fan of the ackwardness that had suddenly arosen after what Mari said. "When you say I'm special? You dont mean like eat the paste special, do you?" she said with a grin.
Hearing some yelling and screaming, she turned around to see Ryan yelling at one of the helper idiots who was now apparently recking the equipment. Watching the scene going on, Emma saw that Ryan could have quite a temper. Turning back to Mari, she said.."God, how long does it take for a guy to get people from a comparment and bring them back here?", before glancing at her watch. It had been a good 15 mins..weird.
marixoxella - April 19, 2008 03:20 AM (GMT)
Mari jumped when Regina popped up behind her and told her of her idea, "A scam? Ryan with a scam? I don't know... Even though the whole thing DOES seem strange..."
She watched as Regina went over to confuse one of the goons and Mari fingered her wand, getting alittle nervous. She giggled at Emma's comment but the thought that Regina had put in her mind remind with her the whole time.
"It is weird that they're taking so long..." Mari trailed off when the door reopened and Ryan came out, running a hand through his hair.
"Hey, sorry, one of my, er, helpers was being stupid and he wrecked some things," he sent Mari his hundred-watt smile, "but no worries. You two should just go ahead and come in here..."
He pulled Emma and Mari back in before either of them could say a word.
Inside the compartment, everything had gone dark.
Something was wrong.

OOC: I'm going to wait for more events to unfold.
BIC: Regina was standing outside. Her charm was still on. All of a sudden the lights dispersed. Not knowing what exactly to do, she made her senses grow stronger with the supersensory charm. She was then able to see in the dark room and hear anything going on in there, much like a cat's senses. She stayed at the window watching the room.

MOD NOTE: Hey Regina, I appreciate the fact that you fixed your post but is there anyway you could just add 3 more lines. Something maybe like "Regina watched the lights go out and didnt know what to do". It doesnt have to be anything really detailed, I just wanted you to add something so it wont count as spamming. Thanks
Emma looked at Ryan..."Thanks but actually I would like to stay -" then all of the lights went out, stopping her in mid-sentence. "Mari." she said under her breath, feeling Ryan release her from his grip. Drawing her wand, she quickly muttered "Lumos". Looking around, she could make out several bodies that were beginning to surround them. "Girls, the fashion shoot is over." said Ryan's voice very fiercly.
Holding her ground, she pointed her wand at him.."Don't move." she said, her voice not faltering at all, eventhough she was beginning to freak out.

Regina saw Emma get her wand out and light up the room. What would it matter if an invisible person went inside? She opened the door up quickly and went in. "What was that?" Ryan said. She went and hid in one of the dressing rooms peeking her eyes out ever so slightly. She then cast an 'Obscuro' at the men, causing a blindfold to appear over their eyes. Seeing as they couldn't see anything. She moved over to Mari and Emma and undid the charm on herself. When the spell would wear off, they would see her. "I told you this was a scam. Lumos." Her wand lit and she waited for the spell to wear off. "What the heck is going on?" Ryan said. When the spell did wear off, he was confunded. "Where did you come from little girl?" he said as if she was a five year old kid. "Oh my gosh.." she muttered under her breath.
