Welcome to Gaia! ::

Raven left Ky at her common room, and began to patrol the hallways as was such her scheduled time. It was Draco's turn as well, and wondered where he was at the moment. She heard footsteps behind her as she neared the Room of Requirement. She passed by the empty wall 3 times, and made her way inside to wait for Draco. But she didn't enter in alone. Te room was decorated with an romantic furniture set as well as a romantic four-poster bed in the corner. There was also a fountain that flowed with red wine. She sat down on the couch and waited. She felt a tap on her shoulder, and turned around. "Crucio" Raven's body writhed in pain and agony once more.

Again, the pain was too much, and she couldn't take it. But no matter what, she wouldn't give them the satisfaction of hearing her beg. She squinted her eyes, and for a split second saw her attacker. It was her father. She heard another voice weeping in the background. Her mother. The door burst open, and then the pain stopped. She opened her eyes, but no one was there. Draco helped her to her feet. "Raven, are you alright?" She looked into his eyes. " My father is the one attacking me." Tears streamed down her face.

It was about three am when Abigail woke up. She couldn't fall back to sleep. So she decided to take her book and go into the common room to read for a few hours. She walked out of her dorm as quiet as a mouse and sat in her favorite chair by the fire. She tucked her legs under here and by the glow of the fire read her book.

(bump)

((I'm just in the common room reading. Raven you just have to keep going. The only one with a sixth scene is Ky and she's sleeping.))

Ky was tired. Fear barely touched her now, but she knew that she had to find Raven to prove to herself. She was wary of every shadow, and crevice, knowing the teachers and headmaster were masters of hiding. She started around the castle, before an idea came to her.

"DOBBY!" she whispered forcefully into the dark, waiting for the tell-tale crack of his arrival. Once she was sure he was paying attention, Ky gave him instructions. "I need to know where one of my friends is, do you have any way of tracking her down?"

There was a few minutes of murmuring from Dobby before an answer came that she could understand. "The portraits know, ask the talking portraits."

It took her over an hour, but the portraits on the Seventh Floor seemed to have seen her recently. Following their direction, Ky found herself outside of a strange door, one she had never seen here before.

((My bad sweatdrop I had lots of leisure time and then things suddenly got crazy biggrin So I didn't have much time to work with the writer's block I had lol))

Leandra sat up in bed in a huff. She couldn't sleep. And yet she was deplorably tired.

Maybe she could fall asleep in the common room. At this point, she was so frustrated, she really didn't care if the other stupid Slytherins found her in the morning, a most uncharming picture, mouth agape, though thankfully she wasn't a snorer.

Upon reaching the common room, she was surprised to find Abigail.

She laughed a little, finding it extremely ironic that the very thing she thought she was crazy for doing had actually been done by this girl. And there was a book, falling out of her hands.

She smiled at the quaintness of it all and plopped onto the couch, basking in the warmth of the fire.

((Ha! Take that, writer's block!))
