The Hallways

[Facundo]

Elvira wasn't going to let Clio get away with it. She recovered from the fist she had taken a minute ago soon enough to notice her leaving. She started following her, cursing and yelling as she passed the awestruck students who were peacefully seating on the benches, discussing the homework they had been given on their first day.

'Get back here, you ugly coward!'

Clio, the Slytherin, turned around. She didn't seem scared, but she was surprised that Elvira had recovered from her fist of fury. Elvira started wondering how her face would look. Her quarter-Veela blood would make her look worse than ever, but she didn't care. She didn't care if she were to get hurt, she just wanted to get back at her. A fist? Hair pulling? Madness! They had a wand, and the other girl was acting like an ordinary Muggle bully!

Elvira tried to take her wand, and a second later she froze in the spot. The fist she had taken must have made it fall from her hand, and she didn't even notice! How could she be so stupid? Her wand was her best friend, yet she had totally forgotten about it.

'It is Clio's fault' thought Elvira. She thought so because the other girl had started fighting the Muggle way.

Clio noticed that Elvira's wand was missing and started following the blonde on her way to the previous hallway, where her wand lay defenceless on the cold, stone floor. Elvira couldn't help it, just as she was about to reach her wand, Clio cast a spell that threw her to the floor. She landed with a thud and shrieked in pain, but she had a few seconds to take her wand, only a few centimetres away from her.

She cast the meanest spell she could think of.

"I am not a coward, you're just insane!" Clio yelled. People were staring, but she didn't care. The knockback jinx she had fired off worked well, but then Elvira had thrown some sort of curse. Clio's deflection spell fumbled, and the curse hit her square on. 

The redhead flew backwards with a gasp. She hit the hallway wall- hard. There was a loud crack as she fell to the ground. Something in the back of her head told her she was in pain, but she ignored it. Something felt wet in her hair, but she ignored that too. From the ground, Clio tried to fire off another knockback jinx, but Elvira deflected it more easily than Clio cared to admit. 

Clio swore again as she got up. Before she could fully turn around, another spell was cast in her direction. It didn't hit Clio, but dislodged several large pieces of rubble above her. Clio had to dive to the side in order to avoid the worst of it. 

"Impedimenta!" Clio yelled, aiming as carefully as she could at the Gryffindor. 

[Facundo]

Elvira was hit by Clio's curse. Even if she hated to admit it, it had hit her really hard, making her stumble, then fall to the floor. She cast a Blasting Curse, and a second later, her head hit the floor.

It felt good, well, not good, but she didn't feel anything now.

[MagicGalleon4]

For Clio, several things happened very quickly, all in rappid succesion.

First, she saw her Impediment Jinx connect solidly with the blonde girl. Well, that was a relief.

Then, the blonde sent a Blasting Curse at her. From the moment the spell exploded in fiery jets out of the tip of Elvira's wand, Clio knew she was doomed. The Blasting Curse was more advanced magic, she herself hadn't even learned it yet. And it blew up whatever it hit.

Her crystal blue eyes wide, Clio swore softly. Then the curse hit her. There was an emense amount of pain, and everything went black.

Tobias Pushed his way through the crowd that had formed to find two female students sprawled on the floor with various injuries. Tobias knelt beside the first Immediately recognizing her bright red hair. Clio was clearly out of the count, Tobias pressed his index and middle finger to her jugular vein, Her pulse was strong and steady.
He glanced up at the crowd of assorted years and houses and gave them a dispassionate glare.
"Jog on guys, unless you want to join me on my second visit to Madame Fountain in 24 hours with the after affects of a duel" The crowd immediately started to disperse as Tobias stood and Knelt beside Elvira.
"Seems to be my lot in life to be surrounded by swooning young ladies." he remained vaguely expressionless as he felt her pulse "I'm assuming you are not currently up to walking to the hospital wing. Huh, sparkles?"
He stood and stretched carelessly. With a flick of his wand the two girls levitated into the air.

Making sure he had them both securely in his line of sight he started to wander up the stairs, the two young ladies floating as if they were submerged in water. They would probably be in for a rude revival when Madame Fountain heard that they were suffering from the after effects of a duel. Sometimes Tobias could swear he heard her ranting about a guillotine in her mother tongue. Tobias was fairly sure she was all bark and no bite but that didn't make her any less intimidating.

Even I find her scary and shes nearly half my height

Damian had just been on his way to the Great Hall after a very boring Divination class, when he heard an explosion. Quite the familiar sound. This one sounded like a Blasting Curse, actually, so it'd be slightly disappointing - blasting charms didn't come with fire, after all. However, an explosion that wasn't caused by himself warranted an investigation, so he quickly sped off towards the source of the blast.

What he found was... well, not what he expected. A guy he recognized as a Ravenclaw Prefect was levitating two girls away from the scene. What, no follow-up explosions? Well, that's boring. Maybe I should create my own... This thought, however, was interrupted by a teacher arriving at the scene. "Move along kids, nothing to see here. Don't you all have lunch to attend?"
Most of the students present did as they were told, but Damian stayed to see if he could ask anyone about what had happened. He saw a younger student - he thought it was a fifth year, but wasn't sure - who had witnessed the goings-on looking at him. She looked nice. "So, quite an explosion, huh?" Damian asked the girl. "Any idea what happened here, exactly?"

(feel free to be the student he asked for info... He needs some friends, haha!)

Camomille was relieved that class was finally over with. Everyone had just stood around the room awe struck. What was there deal? It's not like they haven't been in a classroom before. The fact that no one was excited for lunch was more baffling than anything though. All day long she had been waiting for lunch so that the nail polish exchange with the Ravenclaw girl, Kaley, could be over and done with. The last thing that needed to happen was for the bottle to jettison out and rip her pocket open.
While skipping down the hall and admiring the bright green color on her fingernails, a crowd started dissipating at the other side of the hall.

All of a sudden, a bright haired boy from her house had turned to her. It was a seventh year named Pyro...Oh, well, his name was something else, but that's what everyone called him. Maybe it was Demitri? DiAngelo? ....Damian? That sounded right. "So, quite an explosion, huh?" Damian had asked her. "Any idea what happened here, exactly?"

Dumbfounded and dazed, she whispered "I...don't know for once." The silhouette of the prefect dragging the girls away had to be the Tobias boy from the night before. A grin of satisfaction beamed across Cams face. "...but I'm gonna find out!", and darted in the prefects direction

Tobias moved much faster than his tall, wide body made it out to be (though everyone was considered to be tall and wide to Cam). After a couple of ungraceful pushing and shoving of other goliath student, she was finally at the Ravenclaw boys side. Trying to look as if she wasn't exhausted from playing catch up, she said, "You know, Addykins is going to throw a fit if you don't give them a detention slip. In fact, he's going to throw a fit either way because he didn't get to catch them", a smile beaming as wide as her childlike face would allow. "I'm gonna go to the Hospital Wing with you, okay? I haven't seen Ms. Selene yet today."
This guy seemed as if he was the type of person that was too polite to talk around a complete stranger. Those were Camomilles favorite type of people. It allowed her to go on and on without ever being interrupted. "So, can I ask what did these two girls do?"

[Rhynn]

The girl Damian had asked turned out to be, well, interesting. She spoke quick, like a fire that was getting out of hand. In fact, from what he saw, she was like a fire getting out of hand. Before he'd really gotten to meet her, she'd left already, saying she was going to find out what had happened here.
Which left him with a choice. Either he could follow her and see where that would take him, or he could continue into the Great Hall to eat something and, perhaps, find out if anyone else had any idea what was going on. Damian didn't like it when explosions happened without him.

After a short moment of thought, he decided on the Great Hall. Maybe Clio would be there too; he hadn't really managed to speak to his friend last night at the feast. Maybe after he'd fueled himself he could skip class and try finding the out-of-hand girl again and see if she was as interesting as she seemed. Yeah, that seemed like a plan.

The four girls walked down the hall. History of Magic had been pretty much the same as DADA, just an introduction. The next class was what they were going to was one that had them all excited: Flying

"I wonder if we will get to fly!", Liz said, excitement in her voice.

[Amitia]

((Schedules seem to have changed Sam, check the time topic.))
"I think we have Potions next, though", Valentine replied to her. She had taken out the schedule and was surveying it carefully. "Last class today is flying though! I really do hope we get to fly. I've just had a go or two in secret on my mom's old broom, but furthest I ever traveled was 10 feet. I don't think it really counts as flying", Valentine replied to her. "It's the broom she used when she was young, so it's really old. She keeps her real broom locked up in the closet so I can't try that one."
At least I really hope it was the broom's fault, not mine, she added to herself. She felt a little nervous now. What if she would make a complete fool out of herself while everyone else flew around without any problems?
"A-anyway, the Potions class should be right here."
The four girls had walked into the dungeons and entered the Potions classroom.
