Sparrow slowly walked out of the castle. She wanted to get to the quidditch pitch to get her mind off the end of the year and Caiden being gone, but she had to study for exams and the end of the year. She sat by the lake and stared off into the distance. She was going to miss this place over the summer. This year had been different than before. She had actually gotten to know some really good friends.

Sparrow looked away from the lake and responded to Rose, "Its alright. I'm going to miss Hogwarts and all my friends, but luckily most will be coming back next year. Hey don't forget to write this Summer Rose." Sparrow wanted to stay in touch with all her friends and maybe even get together a few times.

((Btw your pick stretches the post a bit. Maybe use IMG left or right so it doesn't take up as much space??))

Sparrow grinned and said, "Not much. Will probably go to the quidditch world cup with my brothers. Also try to get together with some friends, especially Caiden. There are a few other things that aren't definite yet but I am looking forward to this summer. What about you? Any plans?"

D.A.D.A - Head of Gryffindor - Auror

Kenneth smiled as Lillian rolled herself out onto the grounds, he could tell that it was taking all she could muster to roll this far. "Here let me do that," he said taking hold of the wheel chairs handles. Lillian jumped straight to the big question once they were outside, with the warm wind and bright sun shining down on them. "Let's move a bit further away from the castle, I'd prefer not to be overheard by the other students." With that statement he started to walk pushing Lillian forward in her wheel chair. It wasn't until they got around to the far side of the lake, in a nice out of the way place that the other students wouldn't disturb them while they talked. He locked down Lillian chair so it wouldn't roll down the bank and into the lake, then took a set on a near by large rock and begin the tale he'd only told one other person. In fact that conversation happened on the other side of the lake.

He let out a sigh and then said "Where to begin? I guess I'll just start from the beginning." He looked down at the ground for a second then across the lake, a sorta blank expression filled his face and he started to speak. "I was attacked by two Death Eaters that had been hiding out from a pair of Auror's that had been tracking them. They had taken refuge in a small forest area near my parents house in Salisbury." Kenneth paused for a moment building up his courage to once again face the demon he kept locked away. "It happened a few weeks after the end of my fifth year, Voldemort had just fallen, the Wizarding world here in Britain was just beginning to rebuild after the chaos Voldemort left behind during his reign of terror. Not all of his Death Eaters fell the night he did, a handful of them managed to escape the grounds, and went into hiding. It had been storming that whole week, and I was coming back home from town, since our house is on the outskirts of the town, well enough away from any Muggles that might wonder by. There’s a path that leads off the main road out of town, to a small wooded area near my house, when I was smaller I would play in a clearing near the middle of the wooded area. I decided to take a trip to that clearing for nostalgia purposes; it’s also where I had my first kiss, with a Muggle girl that I had been friends with since I was a toddler." He paused once more to enjoy that memory, even though it didn't work out between them he still held a soft spot for that girl.

"When I got to the clearing I saw that someone had light a fire, my curiosity got the best of me, and I went to investigate. When I got to the edge of the clearing I noticed two men inside, they were wearing large dark cloaks, and I could hear them talking about they just narrowly missed being caught by some Auror’s that had tracked them to Wilton, the next town over. I most have stepped on a tree branch, because they whipped there wands out and fired off spells in my direction. I had choice I had to defend myself, so I cast a shield charm. That gave away my presence to them, and I guess they thought the only way to remain hidden was to kill me. And they started firing off spell after spell, I did my best to protect myself, as well as fight back with spells of my own. They chased me for an hour before one of them managed to hit me with some Dark Magic, all I remember was a flash of blue light, and feeling like I had been hit with a whip. The pain was intense, but I knew that if I gave up I was dead, so I continued to fight. I managed to stun one, before hit partner hit me with the Cruciatus Curse. I felt like my whole body was on fire, the Death Eater who hit me with the Cruciatus curse, stopped to go and wake up his partner. That’s when they decided to have a little fun on me, they took turns torturing me. I remember seeing the flash of blue light and then being hit on various parts of my body with a whip. After each whip, the other one continued to use Crucio on me.

I’m not sure how much time went by while they tortured me, they must have lost track of time too. To engrossed in their torture of me, someone who dared learn that they were hiding there. What they didn’t know is that the Auror’s from Wilton had learned that they were taking refuge in my forest. Just as I lost all consciousness I saw the white smoke of what seemed like an army of Auror’s apparating into the forest. I woke up some time later in St Mungo’s to find the Minster of Magic standing at the end of my bed, and my mom and dad next to him. I remember hearing jumbled words, things like good job, that the Death Eaters had been taken to Azkaban, and that my parents were proud of me, before passing out again. It took the healers nearly the entire summer to bring me back to one hundred percent. During that time, I had many visitors most where Auror’s who showed up on the scene. They heaped a lot of praise on me, for what I did. When I got ready to leave I had another visit from the Minister saying that I had earned myself an Order of Merlin. I told him that I didn’t want the medal that I wanted to join the Auror’s and help track down dark witches and wizards. They told me that it could be arranged, but I would have wait and finish my time at Hogwarts and that the same offer that he gave to those who fought at the Battle of Hogwarts would also apply for me."

Once he started his tale there was no stopping, he talked and talked until the story came to its end. "After that night I swore to get better, to get strong once more. I vowed that I would not allow what happened to me that night, to happen to anyone else. That's why I became an Auror, to make a difference to put a stop to Dark Witches or Wizards before the have a chance to rise up and harm others." He smacked his chest and then continued, "As you can see I did what I set out to do. I'm now a member of the Auror's and I've helped put a stop to a dangerous Dark Witch who had delusions of power. I used that pain and fear as a weapon, as armor. In time you will be able to use that same pain and fear that Desdemona caused you to forge it into a weapon and armor of your own." And with that final statement he went silent and waited to here what Lillian had to say about the subject.

[[ Now that's a long post. Good thing I was able to copy and paste much of the attack story. ^^ ]]

Kenneth got from his rock and went over and knelt in front of Lillian bring himself eye level with her. ”You have nothing to be sorry for, you didn’t attack me those men did.” Kenneth stopped for a moment trying to figure out the right words to say to Lillian. ”I can’t begin to understand what you went though with your ex-husband, that type of abuse, some would say is much worse than being tortured with the Dark Arts. I can only imagine what Desdemona did, the way she treated you like you were nothing, that had to reopen those wounds you received at the hands of your ex.” Kenneth reached into his robes and pulled out a handkerchief, then handed it to Lillian so she could wipe her eyes. ”Lillian you are a great headmaster, even the great Albus Dumbledore had great pain in his past, yet he used what happened to him to become a champion for those in need. We are all proud of you, all the Professor’s, all of the students and most importantly you daughter is still proud of you.”
