Re: On the way home (OPEN)

by **Haley Vilde Smith** Thu Feb 02, 2012 9:08 pm

Haley smiled as they talked about going to Australia. When she became able to Apparate, that was the first location she wanted to go to. Of course, she could always ask her parents to make a portkey and they could all leave, but still, it would cost a lot for a nice and luxerious place.

Haley's family was a very rich one, as she was one of the last remaining direct descendant to Helga Hufflepuff. But she didn't like to talk about that, or to ask her parents for money to leave to places like Australia. Especially now in the middle of a war. Her parents were very important to the aurors of the Ministry for Magic, and to ask them to take her on a trip so far away was like asking them to turn their back on Britain.

Haley sighed, and then saw Leisha worrying about something. "Leisha, are you all right?" she asked her friend softly.

Leshia had been waiting for Salina and her sister and was just worried about them.

"Well I was just worried about Salina and Corrine. I assume Salina is with Corrine, but I was also just wondering where Tabi was. I haven't heard from her. Leshia tried again.

"Come on Tabi answer me" she thought in her head then Leshia sighed out loud.

At that point Leshia finally got an answer "Standing in the hall"

Leshia looked up and saw her sister standing outside the door, she wanted her sister in here with her but she knew that her sister had upset some people.

"Do you guys mind if my sister comes in to join us, I have a feeling she is still upset with herself and is afraid to come in on her own, because of fear that everyone is mad at her." Leshia asked and waited.

by **Charlotte Smith** Fri Feb 03, 2012 7:41 pm

Charlotte smiled happily at the offer of the stills from Australia she would be grateful of them for sure and it would give her something to do while her father was away on business.

A way to keep her mind occupied from what could be happening to him out there, but hopefully wasn't.

"I would love some stills Keiba! Do you want one of the paintings when I'm done with it? I'll make it the best that I can for you I promise."

Wondering like Haley what was up with Leshia, Charlotte smiled softly when she asked if her sister could come in, it would be lovely to have Tabi here, it had been a while since she had talked to her properly.

"Of course! I haven't spoken to her in a while it would be nice to see her again. Why would she think that everyone is mad at her? Did she do something wrong?"

by **Keiba Namid** Fri Feb 03, 2012 8:11 pm

Keiba grinned when Charlotte accepted her offer on the landscape pieces. "That'd be lovely! It doesn't have to be your best one, just anything. I like all your artwork." She answered gratefully.

"If you like, I can see if I can get some pictures of a koala or two in the trees in our back paddock; it'd be a lucky chance to have a mum and her baby but I'm sure my sister mentioned it in her last letter. I've heard they can be quite a challenge to paint but when you're done they always look magnificent!" Keiba lapsed into thought about the native wildlife and suddenly couldn't wait to be home.

Hearing Leisha ask if her sister could come in, Keiba nodded briskly, exited at the chance to meet someone else before the next year rocked up.

by **Haley Vilde Smith** Sat Feb 04, 2012 1:34 am

Haley frowned when Leisha told her her worries.

"Leisha, Corrine is in the infirmary. She's in a coma," she said quietly.

Haley had seen her when she had gone up to healer Henley to help her appetite come back after the battle.

Then Haley smiled. "Of course Tabi can join us," she said, slightly confused to why Tabi hadn't come into the compartment yet.

by Guest Sat Feb 04, 2012 4:09 am

After telling her sister she was in the hall she say Leshia say something to her friends then she heard

"Come on in, its ok"

Tabi walked into the compartment and saw everyone in there.

"Hi, everyone..Hope everyone is feeling better after our lovely end to a year."

Tabi went to take a seat by the door, Leshia was between Haley and a new Ravenclaw girl that she didn't know.

by Guest Sat Feb 04, 2012 4:49 am

Leshia was glad when her sister finally made it into the room, she was missing her a little.

"Well I believe that you know everyone in here except Keiba. Keiba this is my sister Tabi."

Leshia looked around the room and see that it is almost complete and she almost missed what Haley said about Corrine.

"Yeah I know she is in a coma, I just haven't heard anything else." Leshia said with her head down.

"Anyway Tabi we were all talking about Charlottes Bakery"

by **Airen Auditoren** Sat Feb 04, 2012 3:18 pm

Airen frowned at the mention of the end of term. He'd seen a murder happen before his eyes. That brought back the memory of what he'd been forced to do at a young age. Pushing the sounds of fire, metal upon metal, and the unearthly shrieks to the back of his mind, he focused on the conversation.

Airen wanted to ask what had happened, but thought better of it. The end of term only happened a few days ago, so some topics would be rather touchy.

"Ciao (hello) Tabi," he said in greeting. "A little shaken, but thankfully still intact," he replied to her statement.

by **Haley Vilde Smith** Sat Feb 04, 2012 8:57 pm

Haley smiled as Tabi came in. She then shrugged when Tabi stated that she hoped they were better.

"I think I'm as good as I can be, really," she said slowly, "How about you?"

She then smiled again when Leisha brought up Charlotte's bakery again.

"Yeah, the bakery seems awesome, by the way! I have probable reason for why I should fall in love with the place without even having seen it. So just wait until I get there," she said joyously.

by **Keiba Namid** Sun Feb 05, 2012 1:04 pm

Keiba smiled at the newcomer. "How are you Tabi?" she said politely.

Nothing truly horrible had happened to Keiba at the end of term battle... but she was herself horrified at what had happened to other students. Some of the stories were mind-blowing. She really hoped no one had been too badly scarred.

by Guest Mon Feb 06, 2012 11:39 am

Tabi was just listening to everyone else then she realized that Keiba was talking to her.

"Actually I am not doing to bad. Had better days but now that it is holiday is starting. I have a feeling that I am in for a very interesting summer."

Tabi was beginning to think of the possibilities that could be coming her way.

"How about you Keiba?"

by **Charlotte Smith** Mon Feb 06, 2012 7:26 pm

Charlotte smiled as Tabi entered the carriage, she rolled her eyes as Hannibal cawed again and she flicked him sharply on the beak, stroking his featheres to soothe him slightly.

Smiling softly she rested her head on Airens shoulder and thought about what had happened that day, she felt worried because she wanted to know what had happened to Viktor.

"Hopefully you'll not be dissappointed in it when you actually get there, it's a little small I have to say."

Listening to the small talk Charlotte smiled contentadly.

by **Keiba Namid** Mon Feb 06, 2012 11:19 pm

Keiba nodded her head in agreement with Tabi. "I'm not too bad myself, thanks, Tabi," she replied. Gesturing to the seat next to her, she said, "Do you want to sit down?"

Milly had somehow slunk into the cushion and Keiba had to tug the poor cat out of her comfy stop to make room for Tabi. Milly settled on Keiba's lap, staring reproachfully between Keiba and the squishy spot she'd just been pulled out of, purring nonetheless.

by **Airen Auditoren** Mon Feb 06, 2012 11:36 pm

Airen leaned his head on Charlotte's. He let the conversation carry on. He really didn't have anything to say. He was just content to sit here and watch people interact. Hearing Charlotte's comment on Professor Smith's bakery, however, made him feel the need to respond.

"In the muggle world, it's usually the small places that have the best food. I think we'll like it there," he said softly. He put his hand to his mouth to cover a yawn. He rubbed the back of Charlotte's hand with his thumb, but he soon fell asleep, his head still on top of hers.

by Guest Tue Feb 07, 2012 12:07 am

Leshia was watching the interaction between Keiba and Tabi. It was nice that Tabi was talking to someone new for a change. Leshia looked around the compartment and realized there was someone from every house in the room. That is probably a first in Hogwarts history. Not usually can a Gryffindor and Slytherin be in the same room let alone like each other. Or Slytherin like anyone outside their house.

Thinking about this made Leshia laugh out loud.

by **Haley Vilde Smith** Tue Feb 07, 2012 2:50 am

"I'm sure I'll dig the bakery, Charli," Haley said with a grin.

Then she frowned. "Sorry, I have a habit of making nicknames out of longer names," she said with an innocent grin.

Then her head snapped to her left when she heard Leisha laugh.

"What?" she asked, though not at all alarmed, much more curious.

by Guest Fri Feb 10, 2012 4:30 pm

Leshia hadn't realized that she had laughed out loud until Haley has said what.

"Well I was looking around the compartment and I just realized it was probably the first time in Hogwarts history where there was someone from each house sitting in the same room and not fighting." Leshia just could't help but smile.

by **Haley Vilde Smith** Fri Feb 10, 2012 6:21 pm

Haley grinned as Leisha explained the reason for why she was laughing.

"You're right! That's pretty darned awesome," she said with a snigger.

She looked out of the window then, just as she felt the train slowing down.

"Shit, are we already there?" she asked rethorically, as the train slowed into a walking pace and they could see the station.

Haley rose as the train stopped. She grinned at them all.

"Thank you for an amazing year and an even more amazing trainride," she said jokingly.

She then waved at everybody, claiming a hug from them all, and then took her stuff and left the compartment with a feeling that she would really miss her friends during the summer.
