Alexis laughed. "No offense, but it's because your a Gryffindor. She favors most Gryffindor's and the best students in Transfiguration. Since we were together, I'm sure she felt it was a different situation." She shrugged. "Or maybe it's because you just took down 5 death eaters by yourself with barley a scratch!" she said smiling. "The other two ran because they knew they wouldn't be able to handle us both. That guy may have called me a mudblood and underestimated my ability, but knew deep down, he was gonna get his ass beat."

Katie hadnt been able to go back to sleep after smelling the blood. She scooted over to sit up against a tree and took out her knife. 'It's still not any duller!' she thought. She found a small piece of wood and started whittling it into the shape of an un-detailed duck. Rex startled her by shouting and caused her to drop her knife just right so it slit the skin. 'Damn, more blood.' She thought as she let a hiss of air out. She covered it with her hand. "You okay over there Rex?" She asked not looking at him.

Alexis blushed again at Henry's words. She happened to see Henry grimace at his arm. "Does it hurt?" she asked concerned. 'I swear I will get that effing death eater back.' she thought.

She closed her eyes and tried to sleep, but everything was still so wrong. Just an hour or two earlier, she had been reading in her bed, not once thinking about having to kill anyone. She sighed and rolled over, laying on her arms. The stench of old blood permeated her nose. She sat up and started rubbing her arms, trying to get the blood off. She heard Jason mention something about a town and she laughed. "I know one thing about that. I won't be able to walk into a town looking like this." she said holding out her arms.

Danielle ran into Zander's carriage and grabbed his arm, pulling him to the tent. 'That poor girl. Alexander is probably performing on her now.' She thought frowning. She flung Zander to the Side of the tent as she began to make the water flower. She began to float towards center stage. Once there, she made it look as if it were blooming and out sprouted a butterfly with Danielle wrapped into it. She made it flutter around over the crowds. After dripping a few drops of water to show that it was real, she landed back in center stage. The water collapsed around her and she smiled up at the crowd. "I am Danielle, the water controller." She said, watching the crowd. Closing her eyes, she absorbed all the water she could from the ground and formed it into the shape of Alexzander. He walked around on the stage, twirling his cane by his side. She made the cane turn into his flute and started playing it. Of course, she could make sounds, so it was silent. But, the looks of it were real. She made the Alexander walk out of the tent and she let him drop. Sighing at the strength needed, she decided to end her act a little early. "Most of you, probably don't think this is real. You think it could be mirrors, a trick of the light. I can prove it's real. I'm going to apologize in advance." she made a large water ball from the water left outside and then made it explode on the crowd. Groans and screaming could be heard, while few laughing and giggling attendants cheered. "See, it's all real." Danielle said smiling. She quickly walked off the stage before anyone could throw something at her.

Danielle was messing around with the water, making it do a bunch if random animals when she started hearing footsteps. She thought it was one of the guards so she quickly formed the water into a lion. When they stepped out from behind the carriage, she made the lion look as if it were going to eat them. She made it knock them down and snarl, without sound, in her face. Shortly after, she realized that she wasn't a guard. Danielle gasped and let the water collapse on the girl. She tried to compose herself and tried to look serious. "What do you think your doing back here?!" Danielle demanded. She took more water from the faucet and formed it into a tornado that lifted her up higher, making her look even more intimidating. Intimidation was hard when you had pink hair and cat ears. Danielle was scared, but tried nit to let it show. 'She needs to get out if here before Alexzander finds her. Or worse, Alexzander finds me talking to her.' "Well! You gonna answer me Girl!" Danielle yelled at her.

Makenna laughed. "She kinda said the same thing. You seemed a little nicer though." She said smiling. "So John, do you mind if I stick around?" she asked hopping he would say yes. She waited patiently for a reply.

Makenna laughed at John's attitude. 'I like him.' She started running over to John. "Sorry for her. She's bein a brat." She said smiling. "And you dont have to worry. I won't be rude to you. How many people have you saved?" she asked, already picking through his brain.

Alexis smiled. "You really think so?" she said. "That means a lot. I've never considered myself brave. I've always thought I was a coward." She said blushing slightly. "That might just get me to reconsider my career choice."

Makenna frowned. <I just wanted to say sorry. I came with some food for you.> she projected to Mary Jane. She shrugged and started to walk off, leaving the food. She saw Mary Jane trip and a guy helping her up. <Be careful. She's kinda hormonal.> she projected to... John. She laughed and stopped, watching the scene and secretly eavesdropping.

Madame Pompfrey came over quickly and started working over Henry's shoulder. Alexis sighed. "Well, I would be able to kill someone. If they were trying to kill someone I care about, maybe. But the most I'd be able to do is stun them. Knock them out, but not kill them." she shook her head at her cowardliness.

Alexis nodded. "I've got nothing else to do anyway." She said, when in reality, she needed to finish an essay for Snape's class. She followed him into the hospital wing and looked around for Madame Pompfrey.

Danielle yelped when the rose exploded. She glared at Zander but couldn't stay mad. She laughed slightly and tried to practice her perfonance. She grabbed a bucket from her carriage and filled it with water from the faucet. She took it back outside and tried to form it into a flower around her, leaving a small pocket of air for her to breath. She made it float around close to the ground then started to open the flower up as if it was booming. She then made it float higher into the air. Forming it into a set of stairs, she started climbing down. Once on the ground, she put the water back into the bucket. 'Piece of cake.' she thought smiling.

Alexis blushed. "I'd find a way back to you. No matter what the cost." she said turning back to face him. "And I mean that." She said looking up at him.

"Just a bad dream. A really really bad dream." Tiffany said trying to fight the tears. Every time she closed her eyes, she saw Austin sinking down into the ocean. She tried to shake the image from her mind and held onto Austin tighter. She slowly started to feel calmer and the tear flow eased. The back part of his shirt was soaked with her tears. "Sorry." she said wiping his shirt.

It would be best to make a list.

'Id feel safer if that did happen. More people to look after him.' she thought. "I think you would do perfectly fine if it came to that. Your a great dueler. Just as the three death eaters in McGonagall's care." she said smiling.

Tiffany had paid more attention to the movie then she earlier thought. She had dreamed it was her and Austin on the Titanic. Within minuets of the dream starting, the ship began to sink. Austin was hanging onto the side if the door as Tiffany begged him to stay with her. He slowly let go of the door and slipped down further and further into the water. She awoke with a jolt, laying on Austin's lap. Her heart was beating rapidly and she felt scared. Tears started flowing as she looked up at Austin. She sat up and wrapped her arms around him, letting the tears flow onto his shirt.

"Wow, you guys must be in sync." She said frowning. "Just don't try to take on five alone next time. I won't leave next time either." She said opening the big oak doors in front of Hogwarts.

Danielle sighed. 'Show time.' she thought to herself. She sat up from her hammock and began to control the water from her faucet. She couldn't make water appear, only control it. She formed the water into the shape of Alexander and made it walk around her carriage, twirling the water cane by his side. She made the water go outside and made it bust into the air. It came back down into the form of rain. She took a deep breath and closed her eyes. It took all her strength to take water from the soil. 'I hope they remembered to water the ground slightly in there.' She thought peeking at the tent. Closing her eyes back, she managed to get a small amount of water in the air. She formed it into a ball and made it fly around her. She laughed and flung it into Zander's carriage. 'Hes gonna kill me.' she thought.

"Besides scaring me half to death with that explosion, I'm fine. I mean, I might have a few bruises from being pushed and shoved, but I'll be fine." she glanced at the cut. "You on the other hand, need to get to the hospital wing for that cut."

Alexis smiled. "Let's go." she said. She then laughed. "Well, now we know Rita will be here. Probably tonight." they started walking then Alexis remembered Henry's cut. "You need to go to the Hospital Wing for that?" she asked.

Alexis smiled at Henry. "Well, not many students can say they've taken on 5 death eaters and live to tell the tale. It was very irresponsible of you, but I understand." McGonagall turned to face the death eaters. "100 points to Gryffindor, for sheer dumb luck." She said using a nonverbal spell to lift all three death eaters and carried them towards the castle. Alexis turned to Henry. "Thank you by the way." she said smiling. "I thought i was dead. I heard that guy start the curse an I thought I was a goner."

Alexis let go of Henry and setter for grabbing his hand. "Oh my goodness!" McGonagall exclaimed wide eyed. "Explain what happened here!" She said looking at Alexis and Henry. "Well professor, Henry decided to take on 5 death eaters by himself." Alexis explained. McGonagall's eyes got wider and turned to face Henry. "You are lucky as to not have been killed!" McGonagall turned to the death eaters. "Incarserous." she said, binding them instantly. "So why did you have a death wish?!" Alexis turned to Henry, wanting to know the same thing.

Katie looked at herself, completely covered in blood. She cringed and shook her head. 'This is what I get for going murder crazy.' she thought. Katie stood and started gathering some leaves for a bed. She cleared out all pinecones and gumballs and laid the leaves down. After a few armfuls, she laid down.
