chamberofsnogsWho: Ora Yang, Alison Mallory, Lysienne Aldrern, Kahvi Sidhe
Where: Hogsmeade Village
When: A Saturday in late November
What: The last Hogsmeade trip of the school year--Dean Thomas makes a run for it and Khavi joins the rest of the girls of the Chamber of Snogs
Ora didn't like the way they were all ushered to Hogsmeade as if they were a flock of sheep, or worse, a group of suspicious children liable to get lost or stir up trouble at the drop of a hat. That latter bit Ora was quite sure of, but it simply wouldn't do to have the Carrows barking rules at them. This was supposed to be a Hogsmeade trip, and wasn't it supposed to be fun? Walking in file with the rest of the Slytherins, Ora shot Alison an exasperated look. Trust the Carrows to be the ones to turn something good into something unbearable. Pansy walked beside the students, as Head Girl she was responsible for keeping order amongst the students and reporting directly to the Carrows. She shot Ora an imperious look as the group of Slytherins passed her, and Ora did her best not to slap Pansy across the face. She barely managed to contain herself, her fingers curling angrily in a fist at her side. She was never going to forgive Pansy for giving that "those who get detentions deserve what they get" speech she'd given at the beginning of Dark Arts the first day the Carrows had dragged Neville, Luna, and Ginny to be made an example of.
The students managed to make it into Hogsmeade with little trouble, being that the Gryffindors were trying to cooperate somewhat, though the absence of Neville and Ginny from their group made them a somewhat silent, if not less sullen lot. Ora felt bad for them, it was difficult enough for them to have Potter, Granger, and Weasley gone, and being branded as the new social outcasts of the school was hardly easy to deal with. Dean Thomas and Seamus Finnigan walked a little apart from the rest of their House, the only Gryffindor boys their year in the group.
Ora noted as she and Alison split off from the rest of the Slytherins once they entered town that all the main streets and intersections had at least some prefect watching it, especially any street that led outside of town. The street from whence they came, leading back to Hogwarts was ostensibly left unguarded.
"It's nice to know there's only one way out," Ora muttered to Alison sarcastically. They plodded slowly on their way to the Hog's Head, ostensibly swinging by Scrivenshaft's first to purchase some more rolls of parchment and some new quills to avoid suspicion.
"All right," Ora said after they had their merchandise bagged up. Ora tucked her things in a bag she had slung around her shoulder. "I'll feel better once I get that information to Fred and George," she said quietly to Alison, who nodded. Hidden deep in Ora's bag was a list of all of the known places the Ministry of Magic was holding Muggle-born wizards and witches for interrogation, and at the top of the list was Azkaban. That made feel Ora feel a little better. Azkaban meant those Muggle-borns might still be alive. Well, most of them anyway.
Looking over their shoulders, the girls headed down the small, deserted path to the Hog's Head, where they would be able to meet up with Fred and George, at least for a short period of time.

Date: 2008-07-17 07:09 pm (UTC)Following the friendly Slytherin's gaze, she noted that they boy, apparently named Dean, had indeed distanced himself from the pack and appeared to be turning a corner near the edge of town, turning back when she heard Ora's approach. Taking advantage of Pansy's distraction, she stood and brushed the snow off of her uniform, taking a quick peek into her satchel. To her dismay, she noticed that the board of the miniature candy chess set she'd purchased had crumbled, but at least it wasn't something that would leak or muss her stationery purchases.
Kahvi sighed deeply and assumed a dutifully apologetic stance, staring resolutely at her snow-entrenched shoes. "I'm terribly sorry for knocking you over, Ms. Parkinson, on both accounts." After a few moments of silence, there was a muffled groan of slower pursuer jogging exhaustedly past them in the general direction Dean had disappeared in. She didn't dare look up to see who it was, or the expressions on any of the girls' faces. "I'm really not all that used to running on slippery, snowy ground," she offered up in her sincerest-sounding voice, but then allowed herself the faintest undertone of sarcasm as she added, "and I was only trying to help."
