♫ Feeling: Worried.
♫ Company: A man, Mr. Terran, Remy, and Heather.
♫ What I'm thinking: Calm down.
♫ What am I doing; Waiting.
♫ Dating: Samuel Meridith.  Caitlin heard footsteps and a body falling. She couldn't tell who it was, she was training her thoughts on escaping. Then the foot steps came back, "Careful of her kick." They had hurt the centaur. Then water splashed, it sent another wave of rage through her. "Don't hurt her! Don't lay your nasty little hands on them," She growled, struggling with her chains again. Caitlin would not stand for them getting hurt. The mermaid was her friend, and even though she had never met the centaur before this, but she would still stand up for them.

  It had been nice finally getting to sleep. The hand in his hair, the rocking...just like Papa. Sometimes Papa sang but that...that had been someone else, a voice from a time when he was very small. A voice who's owner Papa only talked about late at night when they were alone. For this night though Lior stayed where he was curled up in the woman's arms panda still in his grasp. The night for the small boy was as calm as one could hope for. No strange dreams, no waking in the middle of it, just sleep. His small body had not napped the previous day and apparently found today to be the way to make up for it. Eventually though sleep let his mind go and slowly he started to stir. He shifted a little a yawn slipping out of him as he blinked owlishly, his teal eyes looking about. "Papa?" He mumbled rubbing one eye sleepily. When no reply came though his small face scrunched in confusion. Wait.... Papa wasn't here. He wasn't at home, he was with Miss Lily some place far from home. A tiny whimper left the toddler as he curled inward again back against the woman who held him. He was hungry again and more then anything he wanted his father. Lior wanted to hear his Papa talking, to be picked up by him and more importantly to have him carry him out of here to go home. "M-Miss Lily? Can...can we go home now?" Lior asked finally shifting enough to look up the woman. He wanted to go home and he hoped Miss Lily would come with him. The small boy was coming to love this woman and found himself hoping that she could come with him when his papa came. She could leave with them....couldn't she? Those mean people upstairs wouldn't keep her if she didn't want to be here right? Lots of pandas: Mr. Monochrome, Lilith

  ♛♕♛♕♛♕♛♕♛When the boy had fallen asleep in Lilith's arms, she had smiled. Not an evil smile, but a smile of kindness. They called her an eater of children, but they did not know who - or what - she was. For the longest time, she didn't know either. It had just happened. So long ago, coming onto her like a disease. Changing her into a monster, a demon - or so she was called. A night terror. The darkness. Her name had been translated into so many different meanings over the years. Thousands of years. All of them meaning horrible, nasty things. She deserved them too, with what she had done those many, many years ago.
She closed her eyes and fell asleep soon after Lior did, letting the darkness of her eyelids remind her that another day had gone by, and she was still trapped here, in this prison. Bound in countless silver chains, but luckily only around her neck. She still had the ability to move her hands and to stand up and move around. Of course, she could only move towards the door a certain distance. It wasn't even halfway across the room, mostly because The Family, while they seemed to worship her as a goddess, knew she was a dangerous creature. They made sure to keep their distance.
When Lior's voice echoed in the room, Lilith's eyes fluttered open. The poor dear was looking for his father, his cries breaking through the empty dreams Lilith dreamed. She could never resist a voice like his, "Good morning, Lior," Lilith smiled, knowing that it was not actually morning. Her sense of the sun was strong; it was a feeling that was born into every vampire. It helped them survive, to avoid being burned up in the purity of the sun. She supposed, then, that she was the darkness. That all her children were. The sun would dismiss them as though they were shadows in the world.
"I am sure your papa is coming to get us soon," she smiled, stroking the young boy's dark hair. It was soft in her hands, and it ran from her fingers like silk. He was hungry, she could read it in his mind, and so, she motioned to the floor, "it seems we have been given some food for the day, Lior," she gently nudged him towards the tray of food.
There was a shiny red apple, and a bowl of soup for him. For her, there was a goblet of red liquid that she knew exactly what it was. The boy, hopefully, would not. She took it in her hand and slowly sipped it, trying to pass it off as wine. Surely the little boy knew about wine... hopefully he wouldn't ask too much about it.♛♕♛♕♛♕♛♕♛

That smile was reflected lightly on the small boy's face. The feeling of her hands in his hair calmed him keeping him far more relaxed then he had been yesterday. It was something Papa had used to do whenever he was sick or upset or just plain sleepy. For some reason he always loved it and it just comforting. He listened quickly to the words that Miss Lily had said nodded slightly as he didn't want to move away from her fingers. However at the mention of food Lior couldn't resist. Reluctantly he climbed out of her lap a sleepy frown on his face while he looked at the tray. He liked apples....and the soup smelled good but what was Miss Lily going to eat? Curious he looked at the cup as she took it wondering what it was. Papa sometimes drank something that looked like it, he called it 'juice for adults' and wouldn't let him have any. Where was her food though? Moving to the tray he picked up the apple before moving back to the woman as she drank. "Here Miss Lily. They didn't bring you food so this is for you." He set the apple down carefully in her lap, after all you can't eat food that had been on the floor...at least that's what papa said. "You can have it when you finish your juice." Smiling, satisfied with what he had done, Lior moved back to the tray and plopped down before it. Arranging his panda to sit on his left side, Lior slowly picked up the provided spoon. Papa had been letting him feed himself when it came to things like this, things that his papa called 'messes in waiting'. Carefully he started to eat, a small smile forming on his face as the warm thing started to fill his belly. At least they made good food...not as good as Papa's though. "Miss Lily? Why didn't they bring you any soup....do you want some of mine?" He asked pausing after a few bites. She had to be hungry too after all. Lots of pandas: Mr. Monochrome, Lilith

♛♕♛♕♛♕♛♕♛Lilith took the apple and held it close. She was getting the visions now. Everything was coming together. She watched, in her mind's eye, as the centaurs made their movement towards Hogsmeade. In the shop, she watched as everyone gathered there, presenting their information for each other. They were starting to understand. Starting to put the pieces together about The Family. While she had had a hand in most of the placement, some of the things had simply 'fallen into place' with no control of her's. The children being there unnerved her, but they insisted to be there. Yuan explained his vision, but not enough. The details... he was keeping them to himself. That fool.
She pulled herself from that room, knowing that the time had come to finally end this game. Lilith looked down at Lior and, with her warm smile, spoke softly, "Lior," the name was music in her voice, "Your papa might be coming soon, but I need to do something first. Will you come sit in my lap so that those mean men outside don't hurt you?"
Her arms were held open for him, the apple still in her lap, in case he got hungry again. Lior needed to be protected at this point. With what she was planning, Lilith would need him close to make sure he would walk out of this alright. Otherwise, she could never live with herself if he got harmed in any way.
Without quite waiting for Lior, Lilith looked up at the door, yelling loud enough for the ones outside guarding her could hear, "I wish to call a meeting for my dear Family," a small smirk spread on her face as she heard the footsteps of her guards leaving to spread the news. This happened a few times before, where she would tell them to come and listen to the things she had found out with her powers. So, it was not uncommon for them. Not peculiar at all. They trusted her.
Maybe a little too much.♛♕♛♕♛♕♛♕♛

Lior looked back to Miss Lily when she spoke. He had finished the soup by now and was just beginning to wonder what to do with it. After all at home it had always been Papa who took care of the dishes since he couldn't reach them. She was asking him to come sit on her lap again, something he rather liked to do, and with a happy bob of his head he got up. Scooping up his panda the toddler hurried back to the woman's waiting arms. Climbing back into her lap his smile stayed on his face a lot longer. Papa might be coming soon? That meant he got the message right? Lior hoped so because he wanted Papa to meet Miss Lily. He couldn't help but think that Papa might like her and that maybe when he got here they could get those things off of her neck. They looked heavy and every time Lior looked at them they looked heavier still. Setting into his place on her lap the smile slid away when she called to the people beyond the door. They were coming in here? He didn't want them to come in here. They were scary and mean, two things Lior really didn't like. Papa didn't like them and Miss Lily didn't seem to like them so that told the small child they were not to be liked. "Do they have to come in here?" He asked softly clutching his bear tighter. Couldn't they just stay away or better yet just let them go? If they hurried they might be able to find Papa before lunch time....or was it dinner time? Lior wasn't sure. Regardless he found himself sinking farther into Lilith's grasp not comfortable with the thought of facing those other people again. Lots of pandas: Mr. Monochrome, Lilith

((Down in the Blood Room. The captives will not be likely to hear what is going on down here. Maybe some things, but not all.))   The man heard the news. The big news. Everyone was spreading it like wildfire, but he was always - always - the first to find out. Whenever Wife of his had big news to share with them, she always called for them to come to her. To come listen to her wise words. To be witness to her abilities and dedication towards The Family that she had helped create. She would verify their victory. Tell them how good they had been doing as her children. Wife of his would praise him for doing everything correctly. For obeying her orders.
He was the first in her room. The one where she was chained, for everyone's protection, including her own. There was no need for her to do horrible things while she was in the state that she was. Wife of his didn't know better. She had been tricked, fooled. But his family had long since bound her and kept her hidden away, a member of The Family. Nay, the core of it. She had brought them knowledge and found them what they needed to know. Finding Eric was something that he had done, but Wife of his had helped with nearly everything else. She was dedicated to her children.
"You have called, Wife of mine?" he was eager, but waited for the answer as most of The Family entered the room. The door shut behind them and they all approached the woman chained. They all knelt down, nearly every Family member there, waiting to listen to what their Mother had to tell them. They all looked up with dedicated eyes at their idol, their own Mother. They were all assembled here (with a few guards left behind) like little children.
The man smirked as he, too, knelt down, waiting to hear those fateful words. That he had been victorious in his family's ordeal. What his father and grandfather and so on had done before him. He had carried the mantle, and he was ready to finish this war. To hear the words that he had eradicated the final Council member. That the vampires were going to die.

((Before you guys attack this place, please read:
There are no guards outside the cottage. Upon entering, there is only a room with a door on the other side. There are currently two guards guarding it. Beyond these doors are the prisoners and a few more guards. In that room, there is a spiral staircase leading down to the Blood Room. When you begin fighting where the prisoners are, expect The Family currently in front of their Mother to go to battle. Good luck!))

She stretched, and stepped back, expecting the centaurs to hurl from their experience. Tamara quickly tied off her bag and drew her hornbeam wand. There were no guards outside of the cottage, which Tamara thought of as odd. However, before she blew the door, she would wait for the rest of their attack squad.

 ▂▃▅▆█ Jason Hill █▆▅▃▂ Owner of Dogweed and Deathcaps
Alpha, Aconite Pack Jason was going to kill Strike. He was definitely planning it in his mind. It would be brutal and swift and the bloody bat wouldn't know what hit him. He thought this as he popped into existence in Little Hangleton, with one centaur gripping his head so hard it hurt, and another that seemed ready to murder him on the spot. Bloody hell, will this night ever end? He growled, low enough that only the centaurs could hear. "You can let go now. I don't imagine feeling like getting crushed like a grape." He sighed in relief as the centaurs let go, though one seemed liable to rip his head off. Well,, Jason wasn't in a good mood as it was, and just thought the stallion could just piss off. Glancing around, he waited for the others to arrive. --------------------------------------

  Another pop sounded in the darkness and Yuan appeared his long coat and dark hair fluttering about him from the ride. Opening his eyes, he always had a bad habit of closing them when apparating, the Seer was almost knocked back on his heels. This was it. The cottage was exactly how he had seen in his vision. Well so far everything was turning out right in his vision....small blessings. 'Please be ok, Little Light. I'm coming for you.' Yuan thought to himself gripping his wand tightly. It had seen him through a lot over the years but this would be the real test. He and Xenos had practice dueled before but as his friend had told him real battle was a totally different experience. Even his father had told him as such but the pair of them were Auror's and were going into battle damn near every day. Strike had mentioned battle plans as to who would go in first and so on. Yuan honetly didn't care much about that. As soon as he found Lior life would be ok. The Seer honestly hoped the others who were taken were well and got out alive but once again he found himself worrying about mostly his own son.
Funny though how he found a concern for another rising. Strike's fledgling...Jack was it? Yuan found himself hoping Strike got him out alive, or as alive as a Vampire was. The man seemed to be in the same situation as he was and silently Yuan promised himself that he would do what he could to make certain the fledgling got out alive as well. Yuan didn't want to lose his own son and honestly he wasn't sure if he would be able to look anyone in the eye if he didn't try to help when he could. Cian nodded to him and Yuan returned the silent gesture. To Yuan it was also strange to have Tamara there but to be honest he barely spoke to the girl once they graduated. Hell it was Xenos who talked ot her more but Yuan had spent most of his time with Alfred learning what it was to be a Seer. Now there band of misfits was getting larger and all Yuan could do was wait at the ready for the time to attack.

  Ronyo Storm - Slytherin
Sixth Year
Outside Mysterious Hideout The students appeared and with that Ronyo looked around and took note of the terrain and points of interest. He immediately went into a crouch and pulled out both his wands with such speed it almost appeared he had summoned them through wandless magic. He brought a hand up so the students could see and made a motion for them to get low like he was, he then pointed to his eyes and then to an area with heavy shadows. It looked to be the best cover they could get at this point, and he then circled his finger in the air and moved towards the point he pointed to. As they moved he turned slightly and brought a finger to his mouth to call for silence and then pointed to his wand so they could bring them out and be ready. As Ronyo settled in the shadows and waited for the other students he found Tammy by the centaurs. He made a small single wave and then gave a thumbs up showing all his group had made it and were ready. He turned to the other groups as he found them and made a similar motion to communicate they were ready to go when the time came.

Slip out the back before they know you were there
and at the worst you'll see nobody cares, you don't want to be around when it all goes down...  William Dante Nott the Third Seventh Year, Slytherin Prefect
Rearguard; that was their formation, to disorient, distract, and dislodge any hope from the Family, and those that worked under them. A sickening crack like the break of bones whistled in the air as he, alongside Michelle, apparated with a gust of wind encircling their feet and billowing his robes gently as his feet marked the ground. Darkness cradled the cottage, not a stir could be found from within the building, not even so much as a man outside, either. Nothing had bode well within his core, but the ripple of burning fire roared in his belly, and at least, that would ease him. He fell backwards, allowing the centaurs ample room to spread the first wave of attack, the wizards and vampires would follow suit, but the children were to remain behind as long as possible…
He longed to venture further, and, if all settled well, he just might linger deeper within enemy terrain, but he knew better than to jump headfirst into unknown territory. Muffliato, he cast silently, the barest wisp of his wand swept through the world as silence had cast itself upon the mighty hooves and footsteps that would ensue, the taut bowstrings and whistling arrows and cracking wooden boards, only voices would be heard. Glancing over his shoulder to where Ronyo and the rest had appeared, he waved his wand, ”salvio hexia.” He whispered, falling back into the shadows behind the children, his gold eyes always looking back over his shoudlers.

”Once an heir, now a leader. I only hope I can do as well as my father wanted...”At first, the centaurs that arrived were queasy. Whatever had happened was uncomfortable for all of them. They all felt sick, but they had stomachs of iron. A few deep breaths, some of the centaurs patting each other quietly on the back, and they were fine. They shook the sickness from their body, trying to keep their muscles warm as they all waited. The feeling of unease stayed, however. Unsure of their surroundings, it put them on edge. Being suddenly in a new place, with no way of knowing why, the centaurs shifted uncomfortably from one hoof to the next.
All of them had their weapons drawn. Bows in one hand, loosely knocked with an arrow in the other hand. Some drummed their fingers on their bows anxiously for the signal to go forward. They wanted to fight, they couldn't help it. They had come this far, why not charge now? They shifted a few more times, waiting for Ammar to give the signal. All eyes were on him. His back was being stared at by his kin, wizardkind, and countless other allies he could not figure out what, exactly, they were.
In his ears, he could hear the beat of his heart. He was ready to go into battle. The adrenaline began to pump blood through him, his mind war drum beating against his skull. He tensed his muscles, pointed at two centaurs on either side of him, then threw his head towards the door of the place. It was a large enough door to fit the entire herd, which was beneficial for them all. On either side of this large door, a centaur stood by, bows at the ready to shoot in at any enemy present within. Ammar slowly approached the door.
With a deep breath, Ammar collected himself. Pulling an arrow from his quiver, he knocked it. He pulled it back, until the arrow feathers brushed his cheek. Pointed at the door, he was ready. The two centaurs followed suit, standing on either side of their leader. A voice in Ammar's head urged him forward. Who was he to deny it?
He raced towards the door, closing the gap between him and it. Then, rearing, smashed through it. If they didn't know that someone was coming, they did now as Ammar and his two centaurs shot two men down. Another door ahead and Ammar was already racing towards it to tear it down. Shards of wood flew around them as he burst through, crying out in rage as he gave the sign for the rest of the centaurs and the rest to come through. The doors were broken. Now was the time to fight!
Ammar began sending his arrows at any enemy approaching, also noting that the room was a bit dark for his liking. In the center, however, were a few people chained and held captive. Among them, Sagi.
"Sagittarius!" he rushed towards her, careful of any oncoming enemy.
