Re: After Classes

"It's going to be an intimate affair." Alice winked. "I won't be surprised if I become known for it. But I'm not out looking for fame, just fun. And, of course, helping you figure out your little time turner. As for the pranking...hang around me long enough and that'll change."

by **Tess McCartney** Sun Jan 08, 2012 7:16 pm

She smiled at her friends excitement over getting to know that ghost better.

"I wouldn't put it past you" she said nudging her. "I'll will give you a galleon if you do get him on your side"

She said smirking. She was glad that her friend was helping her grow confidence in herself and in her actions as well.

"I might take you up on that offer" she said winking.

"Good because I think I might need your help in causing some havoc. But first I need your brilliant mind. My mom sent something to me by owl and she said it's really valuable but I'm not quite sure what it is..." Alice said with a shrug. "Rather not so much what it is but rather what it does"

by **Tess McCartney** Mon Jan 09, 2012 4:49 pm

She raised her brow and let out a slow smirk. She couldn't help it...her curiosity was simply killing her. She supposed that she only reason that she wasn't in Ravenclaw, was because she was ambitious, it wasn't for simply knowledge, but the fact she knows it is what she wanted to say.

"Want to show me?" she said eyes shining with curiosity.

"It's back in my room among my belongings. You were the first person I thought to ask. Actually, you're one of the few I know who knows about the Wizarding World and is willing to share it. Do you think we could go back to the castle? Or rather....I did do a little reading last night..."

Alice took a deep breath. She had been practicing the spell for most of the previous evening. She had figured it'd be a pretty useful one, especially if she wanted to play Quidditch. She produced her wand from her robes and twirled it gently.

"Accio cloak"

Holding her breath and closing her eyes she merely put out her hand. Surprisingly she found that after a minute or so it became heavy with material.

"My mother sent me this cloak, you see. I don't know where she got it from." Alice held it out in her hand to present to Tess. "I put it on and I don't feel any different. Strange thing is, I can't see myself in a mirror either. Do you see anything strange about it?" Alice put the cloak on and she vanished from sight.

by **Tess McCartney** Mon Jan 09, 2012 5:41 pm

She was excited about knowing what it was. Seems that Alice too had something special to share with her. She was flattered that Alice thought about her, after all, there were surely others that would be able to help her.

She was surprised that Alice managed to get the spell right, especially since it was quite advanced. It had taken Tess around three days for her to learn it, that was with her mother's training.

"A cloak? Hm..."

She took the cloak nonetheless and studied it. The texture...she had felt it before.

"Demiguise" she whispered. "This feels like demiguise fur"

Stretching out she slipped it over and was shocked that her arm had disappeared. She raised her gaze immediately towards Alice and said excitedly.

"Bloody hell! This is a Demiguise Cloak!"

by **Alice Carroll Lane** Mon Jan 09, 2012 6:02 pm

"Great!" Alice shouted but her look of excitement fell. "I don't know what that means..."

She was proud, however, that Tess looked impressed that she could performed the summoning spell. The one thing Alice's stubbornness was good for was when she wanted to accomplish something. If she wanted it, nothing was going to stand in her way. Not four shattered glasses and several broken vases. She probably should add a cleaning charm to her list of things she wanted to learn.

"But it seems that it makes one disappear." Alice commented. "Perhaps....perhaps we could use this to find out how to work your time travelling turner necklace! We're both small enough, if it makes us both invisible I don't see why we can't both fit under it!" Alice smiled. "And if we both can't, you can borrow it! But you have to tell me what the Demetrages or whatever kind of clothe name- you know what I mean. Explain that to me!" She said eagerly.

by **Tess McCartney** Mon Jan 09, 2012 9:12 pm

Alice's excitement excited her more especially because she had read about these. Her grandfather had had one of them that had been through the family but sadly enough it couldn't last forever and when it's fur died out as did its magic.

" A Demiguise Cloak is an Invisibility coat Alice" she said nodding. " A Demiguise is a peaceful, herbivorous creature that can make itself invisible. It resembles an ape with large, black eyes and long, silky hair. Demiguise pelts are highly sought after as the hair can be woven into Invisibility cloaks."

She looked at the cloak once more and listened to Alive's plan and she admitted it was a genius plan.

"Alice, if it wasn't for your bravery, I'd say you'd be perfect for Ravenclaw! Your plan is genius! I bet we could get into the restricted section with this!"

by **Alice Carroll Lane** Tue Jan 10, 2012 6:30 am

"I'm glad it'll help you out!" Alice said with pride, her chest puffing out a bit. "And I don't know if you'd call a scheme for trouble a Ravenclawian trait," She winked. "I'm just as eager to see what we can do with your Time Necklace. Being two places at once could be quite handy."

Alice held the cloak in her hand. "Demiguise, strange name. How many more mythical creatures will I have to learn about?" Alice said with a wrinkled nose.

by **Tess McCartney** Tue Jan 10, 2012 6:37 am

She laughed and shrugged.

"Well Alice, it all depends on the point of view of the person. For me, a Demiguise isn't really a mythical creature, it's just that you need to have magic in your blood to be able to find it. Demiguise are so sweet, I've only seen one in my life, and never seen once since." she began. "But as for mythical creatures, I don't know, Muggles have these creatures that are real to us, and they sprout from an accidental showing. But what I do know is that our world is bigger than most people think, there are so many of us all over the continent."

She caressed the fur of the cloak once more and slipped her Time Turner out.

"When are you free?" She asked sneakily. "I feel that we could slither into the library undetected with this cloak, and find ourselves some books. Then...I suppose we could cause some mayhem"

by **Alice Carroll Lane** Tue Jan 10, 2012 6:41 am

"We should do it later tonight," Alice said with a mischievous grin. "Less people around so less chance of the Librarian being on the lookout for trouble makers. As for when I am free....well I can certainly make myself free at any given time." She said with a wink. "I open my schedule for mischief."

by **Tess McCartney** Tue Jan 10, 2012 6:47 am

She chuckled and she felt something in her taking pleasure in this mischief. She was planning this carefully.

"Want to meet up here a few minutes before curfew starts?" She asked. "I will make time too"

She wondered that if it was wise to do it, but then again when did she not take any chances?

by **Alice Carroll Lane** Wed Jan 11, 2012 3:29 am

"That sounds like an inspiring idea. I'll meet you by your Common Room, so that way I can sneak through the halls without being caught." She plotted. "And I can easily slip you out your door unsuspected."

by **Tess McCartney** Wed Jan 11, 2012 7:34 am

She nodded.

"I'll wait there, usually it's full of people, and other times it's dead, either way I won't be noticed." she said smiling. "I'll wait tonight, just knock on the door three times and I'll walk out. Be careful though, the dungeons is an easy place to get lost"

by **Alice Carroll Lane** Wed Jan 11, 2012 8:48 am

"Alright," Alice said with a nod. "Thanks for the heads up! I'll see you later tonight. I need to get some Defense Arts homework done!" She said and stood to give her friend a goodbye embrace.

by **Tess McCartney** Wed Jan 11, 2012 5:38 pm

She got up to embrace her friend back and nodded smiling.

"Sure, see you then!"

She grabbed her things and stretched. Immediately the Time Turner was put around her neck, and the center piece was hidden inside her shirt so no one would take notice.

Seeing her friend leave, she found herself running back to her dorm as well, wanting to get some homework done as well.
