Ooc: Alright, so this is the Headquarters for The Thriller Club. This is NOT a private thread unless something is going on (then it will be stated). Anyone can come in. The Thriller Club DOES own this house. It's much bigger inside than outside. It looks like a small shack from the outside, but once you get inside you mind that it's more of a mansion than anything else. There really is no purpose to this thread other than a bit of fun and a place to throw some good parties :P.
Bic: Chase had been setting this up for days and in the end he wasn't quite sure how he did it. He had been putting together a, lets call it a house, mostly by hand, but the finishing touch was the levitation charm. Not winguardium leviosa. It was a bit more powerful and it didn't need to be manned twenty-four-seven by wand-power.
It was somewhat like the charm they put on brooms and flying carpets to keep them in the air. Holding his wand with two hands as the, house, moved from behind some trees to levitate over the water he nodded slightly. Sure, it was a slightly odd club, but it was The Thriller Club. His gaze moved into the lake and he laughed slightly at the mermaids that had told him not to come into the water.
This wasn't in the water. It was high over top. His wand was pocketed and his gaze moved to the huge building over top of him. I can't believe my spell was strong enough to move that... He thought for a moment but decided that because he made most of the building by hand, it didn't need nearly the amount of power that he thought it would.
If he had made more of it with magic it would have needed more. Though the, house, was quite pathetic from the outside he had used a spell to make it much nicer inside, it was something his father had taught him. Probably the only useful thing.
Chase climbed a tree near the lake and found himself on a branch that should have broken under his weight. He moved to the very tip of the branch and it stretched out to meet the, house. Chase opened the door and stepped in. The branch moved back to it's normal size. Standing on the inside, he tacked a note onto the door:
Here resides the Headquarters for The Thriller Club. We are the elite. We are 'The Thrillers'. If you think you have what it takes to become one of 'The Thrillers' please go to Chase's (my) thriller chat lounge and banners and try to get your score up high enough ;)
The same notice was posted on a wooden sign that had been planted in the ground and stuck there with a permanent sticking spell. It was also posted how to get in, because he didn't care who entered as long as they came and went the right way.
On the inside of the door was the member list:
Chase Summerview
Cassie Jordyn
Emma Potter
Dreamy Collins-Salinas
Scarlett Carington
Nemo, the Summerview house elf, had offered to open the door when someone came calling. He had also left the Hogwarts kitchen to stay in the club's kitchen. Chase had given him a choice of coarse, and now all he had to do was wait.

Scarlett was walking along when she saw a floating shack. This was new so she went to have a look. She saw Chase tacking a note to the door and called up to him. “Is this where you have holed up since Dream kicked you out of the Tower?”

Chase was about to close the door when he heard someone call up to him, his gaze moved down and he saw Scarlett. Chase flashed her a smile and moved part of his body out, the tree stretched to meet him again and he climbed down using it. Once he was on the ground he smiled again and gave a small shrug. "Kind of. It was on the ground before..." He said with a grin. "And I was sleeping in the tree..." He pointed. "This is The Thriller Club Headquarters!" He grinned. It was such a childish thing, like a kid with a fort, but hey... It was childish that made things fun. "Wanna come up? It's much bigger from the inside!"

“Sure,” said Scarlett. She read the sign. Scarlett was still not entirely sure what the thriller club was. “I don’t understand what your club is,” she said as she climbed carefully up the tree. Scarlett was not really one for wearing pants and was clad in a skirt as usual. She managed to get up the tree without scraping her skin or snagging her clothes on the bark. She wasn’t sure she really cared for the location of the shack, but she had to see at least once. Her curiosity would not let her keep her feet on the ground. Having seen how the branch stretched for Chase she fearlessly scampered along it and reached the door.

Chase laughed slightly. "It's funny really..." He said as he stepped in and offered her a hand. It was funny. The door was pushed open again and the place expanded on the inside to a huge room. It looked like a ballroom, but it branched off a few to many times. "Have you ever seen the Michael Jackson music video for 'Thriller'?" He asked with a smile.
Emma Potter - April 23, 2008 12:04 AM (GMT)
Emma walked along towards the Headquarters. She had heard about it, and being that she was one of the members, she decided it was time to go check it out. As she turned a corner, she saw Chase leading Scarlett into it. Grinning, she followed what Scarlett did, and quickly scrambled up the tree. Finally it looked like her tree climbing skills would come in use.
Walking carefully across the branch, she caught the door to the shack before it closed. "Thriller!" she whispered into Scarlett's ear in the song's tune, trying to scare Scarlett slightly. :P

Cassie had followed Chase up there a while ago and was simplyy waiting for anyone else to come. She had been on Remy's bad side so. she had been camping out here as well. She flew down the stairs and saw Scarlett and Emma. She immediatly launched herself on Emma with a smile, chuckling quietly as she hugged her close friend.

Scarlett nodded to Chase when he asked if she had seen the Thriller video. “I had a friend whose parents were cool and I saw the video at her house a couple of times. My parents didn’t listen to that kind of music so I only got to see it a couple of times. When did you ever get to see it? From what you’ve said about your folks I wouldn’t imagine that the King of Pop was blarin’ in your house too often.” As she was speaking Scarlett could hear someone coming up the tree behind her. She didn’t turn to see who it was, but when she heard “Thriller,” creepily whispered in her she jumped a bit to make whoever had tried to scare her feel like they had accomplished something. Then Cassie came barreling in. Scarlett thought the girl she was hugging was Emma, but sometimes you couldn’t tell with her. Scarlett thought she would like this place. “I haven’t seen the video in years, would you all show me the moves?”
Emma Potter - April 25, 2008 01:27 AM (GMT)
Emma grasped Cassie's hand that was clenched around her neck. "Cant..breathe." she succesfully said, trying to unlock the Cass's fingers from her neck. Eventually, she was able to breathe better. "Hey Cassie, Scarlett and Chase." she said after Scarlett mentioned the moves. "Oh, can I do the honors?" Emma asked excitedly, the thriller dance was a lot of fun.

The days had gone by quickly and none had visited Headquarters. Well, not at the same time at least. Schedules had messed up everything it seemed and now HQ was only a fable. But Chase had been in there with Nemo for the past three days setting up for something big. A party of sorts to honor those already known as elite and to, perhaps, introduce a new member. The main room in headquarters was somewhat decorated differently, but mostly maintained the main feel. The rooms were all shut off since even the Thrillers had to work for them. The rooms were merely a place to show off. Pictures of what Thrillers, as elite, had done for the club and such. So far, he hadn't even gotten his own room done up.
Chase went out and lowered the Headquarters down to the ground beside the lake instead of allowing it to hover over top of it. He changed the sign to read "Private Function - No Entry" and wrote the same on the 'shack' door. The place was ready for everyone. The place was ready; almost. He set up lights under the shack to make it glow from the bottom and allow people to see it. There; now it was ready. Chase sent off letters to some people and waited inside.

Emma walked through the Forbidden Forest, alone. It was beginning to get dark, and though she wasnt scared of the dark, it was still kind of creepy being in the forest at night. Every time she walked by a bush and accidently bumped into it, she would jump at the sound of breaking/cracking of wood. That's how she learned to hold the end of her dress up as she walked, keeping it from being snagged or bumped into.
She was wearing an eye-catching gold party dress that was a short, halter style. Her hair was straightened, shoulder-length, and black. Her makeup was very simple, except for her eyes which were styled like the egyptians with eyeliner. Finally, her gold-beaded flip-flops made the outfit complete.
Coming upon the Headquarters, she saw that it was no longer in the air but on the ground. Walking up to the door, she knocked, pausing to look behind her to see if anyone followed her. Seeing that the coast was clear, she said the password so only anyone on the other side of the door could hear.

Cassie was laying on the bed when suddenly her window was opened and an owl flew in. Opening the letter that flopped down on the bed she scanned it momentarily holding it in her hand. She really didnt want to attend this party but she knew it was her responisbility as a member of the club. Standing up she jogged over to her closet and was able to find a dress to wear. She grabbed her wand and began to run to the forest, her mind scanning the place where the hangou was. Looking up she assumed it wasnt in the sky anymmore.
Her dress was simple and black with thin shoulder straps and the skirt was down to a bit above her knees and poofed out. Her shoes were black and her makeup was simple. She wore a plain silver locket and her hair was down and flowing. She decided she would thriller once then get out of there. Seeing Emma ahead she walked up slwoly and muttered the password at the door, giving Emma a small smile and wave. Perhaps she could find a good book in her dorm to read after the party.
Emma Potter - June 7, 2008 03:58 PM (GMT)
"Well this is cozy." Emma said, still looking at the door but feeling Cassie's presence besides her. Laughing softly, she turned to Cassie, "Once again, we are at a party with no partners, and we find ourselves standing beside each other. If there is a dance, I'll meet you out on the floor." she said, smiling at Cassie, feeling her friend's un-easiness.
"This thing wont be that bad. We smile, laugh, dance and do anything else that we are supposed to do.", she said being used to wearing "masks" to places. "Did you hear who else is coming?" she asked curiously.
