Galliton lead Clarissa into the Defence Against the Dark Arts classroom, motioning her toward a seat near the front. "All you have to do is glance over these papers, and grade them accordingly. I really don't care about homework; it's busywork, in my opinion, and everyone should just be judged based on classroom performance, eh?"
Clarissa glanced at the stack of papers, then shrugged. "Er... should I really be the one doing this?"
"Not really, but it doesn't matter. Grades are all about points, and homework has very little point value in this class."
"I see," Clarissa said, picking up a paper and glancing at the name. Tabitha Whind. With a smirk, she scrawled a large "T" at the top.
"If you have any problems, just ask me," yawned Galliton. "And someone else should be around later to help you out."
"Sure thing," Clarissa nodded, giving herself an "O".

Celeste skipped into the classroom, looking much to cheerful for someone who was attenting a detention. She spun down the stairs at the back of the classroom, and hopped toward the front. Pausing before the teacher, and the one who was supposed to be watching her detention, before a grin broke her face.
"Hello Mr. Galliton!" she yelled loudly, noticing the man falling asleep.
Celeste then turned her attention to her detention mate, her eyes quietly examing the older student. Ah hah. Loser, she skillfully placed the girl on the popularity scale. She slumped down tiredly beside the girl, rubbing her eyes, and holding in a yawn herself. Being chased by a were wolf the whole night was tiring bussiness. She leaned back, crossing her legs so that just below her knees were against the desk. Quite an odd way of sitting.
Celeste tilted her body to the side, then tilted forward, starring at the teacher, then back to the papers Clarissa was grading.
"Oh... What are we suppoused to be doing? I guess I'm a little bit late, but it's not my fault I only got the letter a couple seconds ago."
She raised a hand, brushing some of her longer bangs from her eyes. The girl was quite happy that she had been able to grow her hair out a little longer.

Clarissa glanced at the new girl with eyes that suddenly narrowed, her quill hovering above Kayla Branch's paper, which she had been giving an "Acceptable" to. She though she remembered her from somewhere... but where? Pushing the matter aside, she pointed to the stack of homework in front of her.
"We're grading papers, apparently. I doubt Galliton will be checking what we did, though," she said with a glance at the professor, who hadn't been roused too much by the girl's exclaimation. "So I haven't even bothered to read them. Apparently, though, we get out once this is done, so the faster we finish, the better." Without another word, she divided the stack in half and shoved part at the strange-haired girl, when it dawned on her.
She had been one of the captives of Sheena, as well. She shivered slightly, and barely noticably, and went back to her grading without another word. She didn't want to have to converse with the girl, so chose not to.

"Okay!" Celeste replied cheerfully, flashing Clarissa a peace sign.
Starring at the paper the girl had just pushed away, Celeste noticed her siblings name on it. Celeste struck her tongue out at it,m then dived into the pile to grab her other siblings paper. With a mischevious grin, she dipped the quill in ink.
"Troll is the worst mark, eh?" she thought allowed, before writing a "T" on Jeremy's paper.
She glanced back at the teacher, who had, indeed fallen asleep, and yawned herself, laying her head down on the desk. Celeste lay there for at least a minute later, before she suddenly shot up, and stuffed a hand down the opposite arms sleeve. Her face controted in pain, before she dragged her hand out, her snake attached to it.
"Sorry Aya. You really should be under my bed sleeping now, eh? We had a troublesome journey last night."
She peered at the snake, watching as the snake looked over at Clarissa. Celeste waved her hand at her wrist, and apologetic look showing on her face.
"Ach ja! Erbärmlich Aya. Ich habe um sie vergessen. Sie schaut Art von gruselig an, macht nicht Sie so denken. Ich glaube, dass sie tatsächlich ein Vampir ist. Oder hat ein Vampirblut. Erschreckend. Ich will hier drinnen lang mit hier nicht sein. Haft ist müde, und bohren. Ich nur wanna Schlaf. Nach jenem Werwolf hat uns angegriffen! Ich fühle alle Wunde, " she spoke quickly in german.
That was their secret language. Aya had picked it out. German was so intresting, and harsh in comparison to english. She liked it.

Clarissa glanced up at the sudden noise, eyes wide and blinking. "Ah... what?" she asked almost stupidly, staring at the girl... then the snake... then the girl again. She had heard what she had said, but it was in a language she knew nothing of... German, it sounded like. She gave a perplexed frown, only knowing English, a few phrases in French, bits and pieces of other languages, and the like, but barely any German.
"Sorry, but I really don't understand anything you just said... if you were talking to me, and not the... ah... snake." She stared at the reptile for a moment, apathetic to say the least. Most people were terrified of snakes, but she felt nothing at all. After all, they were just animals, like humans were, and just because they had no feet was no reason to fear them. It was all rather silly in her mind, and for a brief moment the thought of putting a snake down Tabitha's shirt stuck in her mind, and she had to supress a giggle. She would have to try that later.
In the meantime, Professor Galliton muttered something that sounded like, "Shut up, Alana..." Clarissa blinked for a second or two, then put it off as nothing. Her gaze flicked back to Celeste, before assigning some girl names Kia a large "T."

"Mmm..." Celeste murmured, completly ignoring Clarissa.
The young green haired girl, surprised by the snakes quiteness, placed her hand on the snakes skull quietly.
"Sie fühlen heiß, Aya. Machte Sie unfaller isst etwas unheimlich?"
She seperated the snakes mouth, and stuck her small hand down the even smaller snakes throat.
After a few moments of struggling, Celeste hadn't managed to achieve anything.
"Ich... Ich kann es nicht erhalten. Ich bin braucht gonna Ihre Hilfe, Aya!"
Aya, who seemed quite fed up with Celeste's actions, bit her fingers. The girl retreated her hand, holding it near her chest.
"Aya... Ich will Sie nicht, krank zu sein... hilft mir," her voice seemed very pleading.
When the snake didn't comply, Celeste sighed, and produced her wand, also from her sleeve.
"Fine... Anapneo."
Celeste spoke the spell correctly, and swished her wand in the correct fashion, pointing it at her pet snake. The snake wiggled, and shook, until the item in question was produced from his throat.
"Ach! Sie haben etwas Metall geschluckt. Das ist nicht gut!"
Celeste held up the locket, opening to the picture inside. It held a picture of quite the attractive older woman. She tilted her head, spinning the necklace around the the back, and reading the name that was engraved in it.
"Daniel Autum..." she muttered.
The name sounded familiar....
"Ha! Dieses Daniel Autum Kind ist der Junge einer Mama! "
Celeste snorted cheerfully, closing the locket between her two fingers, and winking to her pet snake.

Having been, apparently, ignored, Clarissa turned back to her work, when she heard a familiar name being spoken.
"Daniel Autumn..."
Clarissa practically jumped, eyes blazing, and before she knew what she was doing, she had seized the girl by the robes, and was shaking her briskly. "What are you saying?! Come on, tell me!" Her eyes then flicked over to the locket in the girl's hands, a locket Daniel had kept on him always, but had never actually worn. She froze, dropping her suddenly. "Where... where did you get that?!" she demanded, not caring that her behaviour was, to say the least, inappropriate. If this girl had stolen her half-brother's locket---!
The idea came to her, however, that perhaps this was something she had found, not stolen. Though it was likely, she had to find out for herself, by force if need be. Galliton was apparently asleep by now, so whatever she did wouldn't be known of, unless the girl started screaming or something.

Celeste wasn't even to finish chortiling cheerfully when Clarissa began shaking her. The older girl was screaming, or just speaking loudly, and Ayacho didn't know what to do; her brain felt as if it were being shaken into jelly, and about to fly out her ear! Then everything stopped, and Celeste began to open her mouth to say something, when she was dropped, and the yelling started again.
Celeste drew her self into the fetal position, knees to her chest, arms wrapped around, with the locket having been quickly transfered to her mouth. Her hertrochromatic eyes were clenched shut if fear of being shook again, or even worse, being beat. Celeste had never been physically bullied before, but she knew she never wanted to have it happen. Ever.
The older girl seemed calm enough to converse with now, so she raised her head, and opened her eyes. She watched for a moment, silently, making sure she wasn't going to start abusing her again, then nodded her head, pulling the locket from her mouth, and dangling it between her fingers.
"I said, "Daniel Autum is a Mamma's Boy". And, I got the locket from inside my snakes stomach."
Celeste suddenly looked oddly pensive, before nodding again,
"He most likely ate it yesterday, 'cause he only felt sick a while ago. I bet he accidently ate it while the werewolf was chasing us."

Clarissa's face went blank. "Werewolf... chasing you..." She blinked, and shook her head briskly. "Daniel... is not a momma's boy!" she defended suddenly. "And don't you know better than to put things in your mouth when it was just in a snake's stomach?!" she said almost irrelivantly.
"Now... where was this werewolf?! Was he the one that dropped it?" demanded Clarissa, eyes wide. If she could confirm that Daniel was alive and nearby, she would be able to help him out in this time of uncertaincy. Of course, it could easily be another werewolf that had happened to pick up the locket... no. That was about as likely as Tabitha being accepted to Slytherin, which would never happen to that stupid, worthless mudblood.
Her gaze travelled to the locket again, and she got the sudden urge to seize it from the grubby hands of the first-year, an urge she fought off. There were better ways at getting things from idiots than just brute force. "I... I'm sorry, I'm just worried..." Clarissa said, feigning sincerity in the apology. "You see, Daniel is my half-brother, and if I could find out anything about what happened to him, I would do whatever I could to learn it."

Celeste listened silently to what Clarissa said, leaning against her legs. She had curled the locket into her plam, after she had seen Clarissa starring at it like a wolf. Like a werewolf. Celeste yawned, closing her eyes tiredly. She was tired. Really, really tired. But that didn't seem to matter to anyone. No one seemed to care that she had speant the whole night running away from a werewolf. She could have died, but nobody cared.
"Bleh." she spat, glaring at Clarissa, "If your going to break into tears go to the washroom. What do you care about my personal health?! Your not my mother, so stop demanding stuff of me. You have no right to do so! I could scream right now, and you'd be in so much trouble."
She turned her gaze away from Clarissa, glaring at the wall now,
"I bet he doesn't care about you. I bet Daniel doesn't care about anyone. I bet he just cares for his own skin. He's just running away, trying to survive. The only reason he wasn't been caught yet is because everyone is an idiot."
She loathed this Daniel kid. Why was he so important? Hadn't he killed someone? That's the rumour going around, now that she thought about it. Why was this girl so worried about a murderer?! Even if he was her half brother... If it were one of her siblings, she wouldn't care. Even if it were Adam. She's laugh, and try to help the people find them. If she found out on of her siblings had ever cast an unforgivable curse, she's tell someone right away.

Clarissa glared at the girl, her brown eyes narrowing in hostility. "I don't care about that. He not only saved both of us from that b***h Sheena," she said lowly, "But even if he doesn't care about me, I care about him. His friends care about him. He's in grave danger, and I want to do whatever I can do to help him, not just because he's my brother, but because it's right." Her fingers drummed on the desktop irritably, and she continued. "Now please, just tell me where he is."
Never had she felt so tense and angry, yet somehow able to control herself in such a manner. This girl was high on her hate list at this point, and normally at this point, she would be throwing jinxes. Yet, it was probably the fact that a teacher, though an unconscious one, was in the room that made her hold back on making the girl's hair catch fire and teeth turn black and fall out.

Celeste blinked, raising her eyes again to Clarissa. So... This Daniel had been part of the Rescue Team. She wondered why Aaron had never spoke of him. Then again, Aaron wasn't one who would talk about stuff that would make people uncomfortable, or hurt their feeling, and he wasn't the one who would spout opinions other people didn't want to hear, just because he felt like it. She sighed, and made a silent memo to herself to ask Aaron about Daniel later.
"Daniel murdered Sheena. I know Sheena killed someone else as well, I know she was planning on killing us, but do you believe violence is the quickest way to solve things."
Celeste paused, and shook her head, opening her mouth a bit to give off another yawn.
"There's no need to answer that, actually, I already know your answer if you are defending him."
As she pondered what the use of caring for someone who didn't care for you back was, she released her hands from the knot she had coiled them into. Her legs fell loose, and she crossed them, so she was now sitting cross-legged, her hands pressed on to the ground between her legs, before her black haired house mate. She bowed her head slightly, before muttering out her responce,
"I really don't know where he is, actually. You don't pay attention to where your attacker runs off too, usually you are much more intent in running away."

"Attacker...?" Clarissa blinked, deciding to not merit her other statements with a response. "That means... he must have actually become a werewolf! Of course..." She didn't even pause to be contradicted, for she didn't want to think of Daniel as someone who would attack classmates - other than Sheena-whore - while in the right mind. "And it also means he's here... nearby..."
She blinked, then without another word, seized her stack of papers, sprawling "T" marks over the tops of them all at top-speed. She had to tell everyone in the little group about this happening! Not saying anything, she shoved the papers onto Galliton's desk and took off, sprinting toward the door. She closed it behind her, and started down the candle-lit corridor.
He was nearby. He was able to evade notice.
He was alive.

Celeste sat there, silently listening to whatever Sheena said, though her words didn't affect the girl. She was more mad at the fact nobody cared about her, maybe she'd go run back into the woods, and let Daniel bite her. Then people would be worried, eh? Or maybe she would find something twice as dangerous... But, what did she care if people cared about her. Ha. Right... It was then she noted Clarissa racing from the area.
Slowly, Celeste staggered to her feet, sleep weighing in her eyes and on her body. She staggered over to her snake, and held up her sleeve, allowing the creature to slip through, and wind it's way up her arm. The girl felt fangs bite gently into her skin, and she almost blacked out, and sighed in relief at the pain. The girl spun around, and staggered up the stairs.
Before she left, she leaned against the banister, concentrating on tying the locked around her arm. The girl hadn't asked for it back, but Celeste had no doubt she would. She stuck a finger in her mouth, licking off the blood before it dripped on to the floor, opening the door with her other hand.
