As he saw Branna come into the Dance Hall Ian smiled: Now the only one of their quartet that was missing was the most important one: The Champion, Josi herself. Ian bit his lip slightly as he heard Claire ask if the engagement was off, but Ian knew that it couldn't be true: Those two loved each other too much for it to end that way.
Turning back to Branna and Owen, whom had not spoken yet, he playfully answered Branna's questions. "Well, you know that Josi isn't here yet, but almost everybody else has arrived, and yes, the decorations are amazing."
Ooc: We can't really dance yet because we are missing Champions, right?

Mai was laughing lightly at Jake, he was sweet and funny. She like him alot, but inside she was about to die. She had not heard from Rei in days and it hurt her when she had to cover up the pain. She knew she proberly should not have come with Jake, but Rei was not exactly being the most responsible person when he ran off with no word of where he was. She was worried. She was scared. She wanted to talk thing out with him, but she thought he was just running away from his problems. So, she did what she could which was to live on. People were proberly looking at her and talking about her, but she was not caring at the moment.
She also, could not wait from him for ever, so she decided to have Jake as her date for this event.
She smiled at Jake, "I want you to know, not to worry, but we have to dance infront of the school, because I'm Ravenclaw Champion. So, just be ready, okay?"

Kevin was behind the magical drumset (ooc: why the hell did I say that?) and was busy magicall tuning the heads, prepping them for playing. When he looked up, he dropped both his drumstick and wand (he transfigured it back for use) and smiled. His uncle and aunt were there, and he had to speak with them, since the Dance hadn't started yet. Telling his badn he'll be back, he jumped down and made his way to them, taking Sarah with them, and then remembered something.
Claire, find me and follow me, there are some people you should meet.
He then walked up and address his Uncle first. "Uncle Remus, it's so good to see you here! And you, too, Aunt Tonks. Wow, why didn't you tell me you were coming? There was a change in leadership, and a, well..." he trailed off, slipping his hand in his robes and pulling out the Head Boy badge. "I'd wear it, but I have something there a little more important to me." he said, rubbing the silver pegesus.

Lydia woke up on the morning of the Yule Ball quite late. She rolled out of bed around noon and threw on some sweats and had gone down to lunch. Not long after that did she go back upstairs into her dormitory to get ready for the Yule Ball. Although she didn't have a date, she wanted to have fun. She pulled out a curling iron around four o'clock and by five thirty, her hair was full of perfect auburn ringlets. She looked in the mirror and chuckled slightly at herself. She had her hair in the best way she'd ever seen it and she was wearing sweats. Oh Lydia... you weird person. she thought and smiled.
She pulled out her makeup bag from her trunk and applied dark brown eyeliner, light blue eye shadow, and brownish black mascara. Lydia slipped a tube of clear lip gloss into the white purse she had to take to the ball. Then, Lydia looked back in the mirror to check that her hair still looked good. Okay.. now for the big finale... she thought playfully. She undressed and then slipped her light blue dress on. It was fitting on the torso and then on the bottom it poofed out. She spun in a circle and fell onto her bed. What are you doing Lydia? You didn't get a date. she reminded herself and sat up. Why am I going? she thought and looked back into the mirror. A second before she had been so happy, and now sat this pretty girl and everything was perfect.. except the most important thing. She was unhappy.
No. You promised yourself that you wouldn't let this get to you... maybe if you're lucky some guy will ask you to dance.. maybe. Lydia's pink lips curved upward slightly and she convinced herself to go. As she slipped on her silver shoes, she was agian doubting if she should go or not. But by the time she was completely ready, jewlery and all, she decided that nothing would stop her from going. With one last look in the mirror, Lydia was off to the Yule Ball.
She slipped her small wrist-purse around her wrist on her way down the steps of the dormitory. She noticed as she was coming down the last few steps that the common room was empty. Everyone's probably already down there... she thought, but her thoughts were interuppted when she tripped on her dress. "Whoaa!!" she yelled and fell. Luckily, she was on the last step so she didn't fall far. Me and my clumsiness... she thought as she stood up and brushed herself off. Finally, Lydia stepped out of the common room and was headed down to the Great Hall.
When she reached the double doors to the Great Hall, she stopped for a moment and took a deep breath in. This is it... she thought. Lydia pulled open one to the Great Hall doors and looked around. "Wow..." she said in a breathy whisper. "Jill really outdid herself," she said with a slight smirk at addressing her headmistress with her first name. She started to walk through the Great Hall to look for anyone she knew. Hm.. she thought. Lydia saw Branna but she seemed a bit busy, so she just leaned against a wall slightly and continued to search the room.

Azlen was still looking around when she saw Lydia walk in. She had met Lydia once or twice and decided to go talk to her. She stood up and walked over. "Hey Lydia, I'm Azlen. I think we've met once or twice or maybe it was just you talking to Ian. I love your dress. "

Lydia was lost in her mind looking around at all the beautifully dressed girls and handsome men. If only I looked as good... she thought. A voice interuppted her thoughts and she turned her head and saw a Gryffindor girl, her age, who had just introduced herself as Azlen.
I think we've met once or twice or maybe it was just you talking to Ian. I love your dress. Lydia smiled and looked down at her light blue dress. "Thanks... well, it's nice to meet you if I haven't before," she told her and grinned. "So, did you grab a date for the ball?" she asked Azlen curiously.

Post by Josi Emrald on Dec 22, 2005 19:40:48 GMT -5
It was the day for the Yule Ball, and Josi had to start it off with the first dance with Ian. She was really worried she'd embarrass herself in the first dance with Ian though, but she probably wouldn't.
Quickly, about an hour or so before the dance she began to get ready. She wore a dress that was mainly red, and also had black underneath the top layer of fabric. She wore simple East Indian style slippers/shoes that were black with white beads, and silver sparkles. Her hair was curled, in a bun, with braids separated certain curls. Her make-up was done as usual, a lot of black eye-liner, and different from usual, she wore a bit of foundation to brighten her pale face. She couldn't believe she had convinced herself to wear a dress, but somehow she did, and she went all out.
Once arriving at the Hall she saw Klayton, he was looking gorgeous as normal. She smiled at him, and waved, wishing that he could have been her date - yep, she definitely had a crush on him - but Ian was good enough, he was her good friend. To her surprise she noticed that she actually wasn't too late, the dancing hadn't actually started, but it was too busy for her to find Ian, or Branna. She hurriedly walked around, hearing people bicker, and there seemed to be quite the ruckus going on , she just tried to avoid it as much as possible.
Eventually she found Ian and Branna with a couple of other people, "Sorry, I couldn't find you anywhere!" Josi exclaimed, "Branna, you look awesome!" Turning toward the other people in the group she smiled, "Hey! Hows it going?"
ooc- her dress sort of looks like the one from the video 'Helena' by MCR, but instead of black it is red, and she doesn't have the feathers around her chest... I wanted to have some difference
Sorry for the crap post, I couldn't read all 12 pages! Lol, and Ian made me reply but I'm really busy and need to go!

ooc:wow lot of posting- A girl can't go to work with out 10 pages going by, anyhow Jean saw the sweet girl in a yellow dress that introduced herself as Marie. "Jean" She managed to get out after sowoling her juice. "Ravenclaw 7th year as well!" She said a litle hapier given the circumstances. "How long have you been here? THis is actually only my second night here." She sighed, happy and sad at the same time. She was so excited to be there untill ther dreatful night where a girl was killed, in her very house.

Turning around, Ian saw Josi come into the Dance Hall, and his first thought was, no wonder she's a champion........compared to her, I definitally look grubby.... Smiling as Josi walked towards them, Ian happily told her, "There you were! I was starting to worry that you might have gotten abducted or something!"
Noticing that two of the champions still hadn't arrived, Ian began to relax: All he had to do now is wait for the Ball to begin.

Marie smiled, "I too just arived! Me I am from Vermont, in the US. And you must be from..." She could not remember waht her accent was, but was not to embarised to ask. She then said, "Your dress is lovely." She smiled and took a seat. she fliped back her curled hair. and smiled. "Hogwarts is a beautiful place." She said softly. She had heard about the murder in Ravenclaw, she assumed most had but now, she was worried when the news was going to get to her father. They just moved here for safety and then this happens. She was not going to bring up such dreadfull things on the night of the yule though, She knew that time would not change the girls death, but now must be a time of simple joy.

Aireona smiled at the though and said "Of course," She seemed very happy to have this enexpected bit of happyness in the middle of all the occurances happing with her and teh school. *they began to dance to the music that was being played, it was a simple amount of joy that made the evening even better. [shadow=Yellow,left,400] Sim was very impressed with how well Aireona danced, she moved like the wind on a quite summer beach. body so smoth in its movements, her hair so elegantly done. Sim was very impressed with her, and couldnt take his mind off her for even a moment. He wished that this feeling would never end, and that the night would just never end, this made him feel so happy, and he hoped the same for Aireona.[/shadow]

Raven walked into the Yule Ball, she had not planed on going because she was new. But she was quite bored in the common room when everyone was down here, having fun. she walked over to a chair and sat down in it *sigh* "It's just as boring here, as it was in the common room" she said "Oh well"

((ooc: ok i'm really sorry if i'm taking someone's opening act part in this, but this really needs to get done. let me know if it's a problem and i'll fix it))
Dove gazed around the hall, taking in all of the sights and sounds around her. She noticed two new adults that Kevin was talking to, and looked away quickly. One of them had looked familiar, in a bad way. To clear this troubling thought from her mind, Dove went back to looking around the hall. She saw Josi- the Gryffindor champion! Yes, Now they could start!
Dove hopped down off of the stage, and grabbed her guitar case, plastered with stickers from places all over the world. She opened it, and pulled her teal-green painted guitar out. After checking that it was in tune, she pointed her wand at it, and muttered, "Sonorus." Then she began to play a soft piece for the champions to begin dancing to, after which everyone else could start.
As the music from the guitar filled every corner of the hall, Dove almost started singing to her own song, before remembering that this particular piece had no lyrics.
This is what Dove played: www.studio206.com/jeff/music/new/dreamnew.mp3

Aireona's mind became empty with all that was happining with her life and the school. She felt like she was flying as she danced to the music. Sim was smiling which inturn made Aireona smile. Once the song had ended they returned to there seat for something to drink. Arila was still siting alone at the table. Aireona had lost some of her anger toward Arila, she need this release from the real world.
ooc: I assuming the chamions did there dance, cuz we have like 12 pages, and we should start dancing.

[glow=green,6,300] Arila was dased off into space. SHe was not paying much attention untill she noticed Aireona and Sim return. Aireona seemed to be more adjusted. Arila frowned because Aireona couls have some fun, but unfortantly Arila seemed to scare off people, and if she didn't scare them off, then she jinxed them. She would not let it get to her she conjured a drink, and drank it in one gulb, then it refilled itself. [/glow]

This was unusal for Aireona to take point and introduse everyone. She was usually so shy that no one could even hear her speak, but tonight she seemed in complete control and very peaceful.[/glow]

Post by Katy J. Salmalin on Dec 22, 2005 21:40:55 GMT -5
Katy was not exactly the happiest person in the world at the moment. Her emotions usually came in extremes. If she was sad, it was extremely sad. If it was happy, it was extremely happy.
Katy was upset because nobody would talk to her. Her conversations kept getting interrupted, and she didn't even have a date to talk to.
Stop it, she told herself. That's no way to behave at a Christmas ball. All the same, Katy still felt a bit left out. The staff did not usually acknowledge her because of her peppy and er, shall we say, her attitude was more jubilant and expressive. This made her more like a student than a teacher. Similarly, the students excluded her because she was a professor. This technically made her an adult.
It was very nearly like Katy was all alone at Hogwarts. People acknowledged her only when she spoke to them, and then always found ways to leave her immediately afterwards. Katy sighed. Just thinking about it made her sad.
Then she straightened herself up, mentally. It was Christmas Eve, she could have fun if she wanted! As the music started, Katy began to dance. Alone. She did not dance with an invisible partner, as some girls did, but rather, more like a ballerina. No fancy moves or anything, just silent movement, like liquid. She moved gracefully, her arms twining around the air. She twirled, stepped, and glided around in an endless pattern, never ceasing. She kept her eyes closed, afraid the whole Hall was watching and laughing inside themselves. Hopefully she didn't look too out-of-place, or weird.

"Hi, it's nice to meet you both" she said as she sat down "So......Do you know when the real party is goin to start" she said she could not really stand the soft tone of the music that was playing, she was waiting for something a little more hard core.

*Claire received Kevin's thought. She looked around the Hall, searching for him, but couldn't see him. She used her mind to pinpoint him, and walked towards where he was.*
[glow=pink,2,300]Hey Kevin! I'm glad I found you, there's so many people in here![/glow]
*She said happily in her French accent. Then she looked around and saw two adults, a professor and a woman, she didn't recognize either, but she knew from Kevin's smile that they were important to him.*
[glow=pink,2,300]Bonjour, I'm Claire DeLour, Ravenclaw 6th year.[/glow]
*She smiled at them and extended her hand.*

[glow=red,2,300]Sim was happy to see that some one was willing to talk to him, its ver rare that some one will come up to him and just talk, but maybe it was because he was with Aireona, but with that aside he started talking to Raven with Aireona. "how long have you been here at the school Raven?" Sim inquired[/glow]

[glow=purple,5,300]Aireona smiled, "I don't mind it at all, but it should pick up, it needs some energy to keep alive." She said to Raven, refering to the music selection so far. She looked at he ceiling and took a breath seeing a shooting star. although it was a magical sky, she closed her eyes and though "in all the days and throught the nights, i hope that I can end this flight, please change this night for i can hide no more" she thought. She smiled and opened her eyes. She heard Sim ask how long Raven had been at the school ad she remembered that it was not that long ago at the start of her time at Hogwarts, but it seemed so long.[/glow]

Raven was not quite sure what Aireona was talking about but it really didn't bother her, she looked at Sim "This is my second day" she said "I wasn't really sure if I should have came to this ball I feel rather out of place" she said as she looked at her gothic style dress she began to laugh "How about you how long have you been here"

Arila siighed, then heard what Aireona Thought, she is defently strange she thought. "Drink?" She offered a glass to Raven, "what ever you would like, its easy to conjure someup." she added. "we have, Aireona and I, been here from this year only, transfered, I from london, Arieona from the US," Arila seemed to to be letting go of her fustrations, the ball was just what everyone needed, to have time to forget the events previous.

Sim noticed that Arila offered Raven a drink.. he wanst quite sure what it was made up of, but it didnt bother him one bit at all either, so he got himself something to drink to, a nice martini,. dry ofcourse. Sim took one sip of his drink than awnsered her question "I have been here for a few months, i have only signed up for a few classes, on onf them is R&D, research and Development. have you decided what u are going to take for classes?" he looked over at Arila with her frwon on her face and still could not figure out how she could be so depressed with all the fun going on, then he reembered she has no date, and that her and Aireona arent to happy with each other... but he tryed not to focus on it too much and went back to talking with Raven...
