Welcome to Gaia! ::

Kagumi lunged for the opening Faith’s distraction had created. Her jaws clamped easily around the strong neck of the Werewolf and she pinned him to the floor on his stomach. Prongs and Padfoot burst into the room, slightly panting to see Moony pressed against the wall by Kagumi and Faith’s husky form on the floor, a small stream of blood dribbling from a cut on her head. Sirius growled and started to run forward, but James cut him off with sharp antlers.

Sirius ignored him and carefully began dragging Faith’s body away. Something dripping on his snout broke the concern for Faith. Blood was dripping from the large, deep wound on Kagumi’s neck. Her paws were shaking and yet she still stood there with Moony pinned to the ground, refusing to move. Her eyes flicked upwards and Sirius knew that it was okay to get Faith out of there.

Remus started to move, but Kagumi’s jaws just tightened. Her canines were very close to piercing the skin and she tried to refrain from doing anything to provoke him anymore. Once Faith was safe behind Prongs, she lightened up her grip on his neck. She stood there, occasionally scuffling with Moony to maintain her dominance, for what seemed like hours.

Faith began to stir and whimpered in pain at the fading moonlight.

“Faith!” Kagumi screamed. “Faith!” She darted from Remus’s grip as easily as she had outpaced him the night before. She caught the falling Faith in her arms and held onto her for dear life. “You don’t do this to me, Faith! I mean it, you relax!” She searched for her wand, barely remembering that she had put it on her bed. “No, dammit!”

She whirled around to face the Marauders. “Does anyone have a wand?!” They all shook their heads. “NO! James, turn into Prongs! NOW!” Wondering why, he did so. Kagumi loaded the gasping Faith onto his back and told them all to run down to Hogsmeade, that she, Faith and James would meet them there. Without further words, she kicked open the battered door, leapt onto James’ back and nudged his ribs with her heels.

Racing through the cold wind, they got to the edge of town and saw passerby staring. Kagumi jumped off with lithe grace and ran up to the nearest one. “Give me your wand,” she panted.

“No!”

She slapped the guy across the face and picked him up to face Faith. “If you want her to die, walk away. If you don’t, Hand. Over. Your. Wand. NOW!” He handed her the wand and backed away. Kagumi ran up to Faith, who had fallen into the slush on the street. She pointed the wand at Faith’s throat. “Anapneo! Anapneo!”

Faith’s face flushed as her airway began to clear. She struggled to sit up and threw herself into Kagumi’s arms, both of them crying with exhaustion. It was only when they looked up to hand the boy back his wand that they realized it was none other than Lucius Malfoy.

Kagumi: You’re telling me. Here’s your wand. You should go on so that I can get her to the castle.

Malfoy shrugs his shoulders and walks into the nearest pub as Remus, Sirius and Peter all finally caught up. Kagumi didn’t notice that her cloak, which had somehow been in the Shrieking Shack was dragging in the dirty mud-slush mix on the road. Sirius bent down.

Sirius: Is she?

Kagumi nodded weakly. “Yeah…she’s fine. But we have to get her back up to the Hospital Wing. It might not last.”

Kagumi: Where'd we get all these cloaks, anyway?

Remus: I keep a stash of them in the Shack in case someone forgot to bring a bag with clothes in it.

James went behind a bush and changed back into human, being handed a cloak by a shaking Remus. Since all they had on were cloaks, they decided to huddle together while walking back to the Shrieking Shack. Peter transformed back into a rat and rode on James’s shoulder. He went through the tunnel first to stop the Willow from moving. After they had all gotten through the branches and were a safe distance away, they all broke into a run, clutching cloaks around them…well, except for Sirius. His cloak kept falling open until he just tied it around his waist. He picked Faith up again and they ran as fast as they could to get back to the Common Room.

Getting inside just barely, the boys and Kagumi, who was now carrying Faith, spilt up to dress on their own. Kagumi set Faith down on her bed and threw some clothes for her on the bed next to her. Then Kagumi herself flopped backwards on her bed for a bit of a nap after getting dressed in robes.

Yeah...*sheepish look* Sorry...I know we got really crazy there...*scratches head* Funny thing is: I never meant for it to turn into an RP...I really didn't. I thought about making a new thread just for me and her and my sister...But...I don't know if anyone would object.

Okay. It's set up. You know where it is. Um...I'll have to tell my sis bout it, but I'll have to wait till she's online.

*shrugs* Without a doubt. Of course it's going to be fun and on the flip side, we won't be cluttering up the Common Room anymore. So..Yippe! I didn't lock it though. I'm not sure if we're supposed to and even if it was okay...*whispers* I'm not sure how to.... He he...Oh well. See you around five-ish!

I know, but I'm not one for the whole Harry/Ginny thing. I hated it from the first moment I read it in HBP. And even though I'm a huge fan of the Ron/Hermione pairings, mine and Faiths RP is set in the psat, it's the era of the Marauders. So...Seeing as neither Harry, Ginny, Ron nor Hermione exist yet, I don't think that we would really "fit in" in that RP, if you know what I mean..... sweatdrop

They exist, it's years ahead. You can be them, but adults. Perhaps like a teacher. Otherwise you can be their child, or have a character just like them.
