The forbidden forest.

First topic message reminder :

There's something special with this place, Hadley thought as she sneaked into the big forest. Once she'd seen a centaur hiding in the shadows and today she hoped she'd see another one. Or maybe something else. A meadow filled with all sorts of flowers was only a few meters away, the perfect place to sit down at. Said and done Hadley sat down in the meadow leaning her back against a big tree.

She shook her head. "Of course not, go ahead!"

she grinned "Thank you" she kissed Amy on the cheek and ran after the wolves, hunching down and sprouting hair all over, my snout elongated and i turned into a wolf. I gave her a wink and bounded of into the forest

Amy smiled and walked up to the castle.

A couple of miles away Leeann sits on a ledge and looks up at the mindnight sky I'm so alone here... She thought to her self No friends and no family. She looked up at the moon. It was full and bright. She decided to practice her wolf call.

'I thought I was the only one to have discovered this particular nook.' Said Apollonius to the girl he remembered from the Slytherin dungeon.

He pointed his wand at the young girl, who was not hiding her unhappiness very well, and spoke: 'exhilaro!' As he spoke the cheering charm and the girl was bathed in luminous pink mist, he saw that her mood improved a little. Of course, it was only a sticking plaster.

'It gets easier around here.' He said.

Leeann fanned away the pink mist and smiled alittle 'Thanks, sorry for the trouble I caused earlier.'

'These things have happened before and as surely as nifflers love bullion they'll happen again.' He said with a smile.

Leeann chuckled letting her legs dangle over the egde of the ledde. She placed her hand on the spot next to her 'Care to sit down?' She said wiith a smile.

'Thanks.' He said, taking the seat. He could smell the dew in the grass and moved his hands through it as though running his hands through the land's hair. 'It's quite nice here, isn't it?'

'Very.' Leeann said smiling and letting the wind blow through her hair. 'It reminds me of when I was a kid and the world seemed inocent.'

'Life in this world steals innocence; very few make it to the end of their lives with the innocence with which they were born. Perhaps the key is trying to hold on to it, to avoid becoming jaded.' Said Apollonius, a little aware he was pontificating.

Leeann shruged and lookedup at the moon again. 'Perphaps there was never innocence in this world to begin with, and it was just an illusion created by our minds inorder to live.' She said not understanding most of what she had just said.

'Oh no, it's definitely there. It is readily apparent to those who have seen it forsaken.' He replied.

Leeann hesitated before speaking again 'Can I intrust you with a secret of mine?' She asked nervously.

'Perhaps. If I were untrustworthy, I would lie and say that I were trustworthy, so that question really has no merit. If you will believe me, though, I will not betray your confidence.' He assured her.

Leeann smiled at his reassurence. 'I do trust you.' Her smile disapeared as she looked down at the ground. 'My father killed my mother after I was born after he found out she wa a shapeshifter.' She raised her head to look at the midnight sky.' After he died I had to live on my own, the only reason I'm here is so I'll have somewhere to sleep at night.' She looked back down at the ground.

'Your father? From what I head, he was never even with anybody else.' Said Apollonius, admitting to some confusion.

'He had his own secret life." Leeann said glancing over at Apollo. 'You think I'm a freak now rIght?'

'My great uncle was the halfblood scion of the House of Slytherin, who tore his soul to shreds for fear of dying. Then look at my uncle, the good professor –he drinks so much blood he'd make the blood brotherhood feel queasy. You are a halfblood so you must have some muggle ancestry. Nobody with muggle ancestry could have a family history half as freakish as mine.' Laughed Apollonius.

Leeann chuckled and cracked a smile 'At least you're Pure blood.'

'For all the great advances of the wizards of mongrel stock, there is still so much about magic that is known only to the pureblood families – things even the great halfbloods like Riddle and Dumbledore didn't know.' He said conversationally.

'Even more reason for me to be jeallous.' Leeann joked as she shapeshifted into a wolf 'Sorry, I always do this when I come here.'

'A wolf? At least you have a sense of style.' Laughed Apollonius. This halfblood was all right for a youngster.

Leeann laughed. 'They're my favorite animal. Whats your idea of style?' She asked laying on one side.

'Come with me... I know a place where the anti-apparation jynx is weak.' He jumped to his feet and sprinted off into the forest with Leeann in wolf form running along with him. They arrived at a spot which gave no sign that it might be particularly different than any other spot in the forest, but he reached down and touched the wolf and in a swirl of smoke they had disapparated to Florean Fortescue's Ice Cream Parlour in London.
