Slytherin Girls Bedroom

Shadow retreated to the dorm, which she hoped would be empty. She could feel a head ache coming on and just wanted to lie down in silence. She walked over to her bed and curled up under the blankets, falling into a light doze.

Eliza walked in, and saw Shadow. Careful not to disturb, she walked over to her bed next to Shadow's and lay down, pulling out her book.

Shadow had been woken by the door opening, as she was, by nature, a very light sleeper. She sat up to see Eliza sitting down on her bed to read a book. Deciding that there was no real danger, she lay down again.

Eliza looked up from her book and saw Shadow wake. She said, "Sorry."

Shadow shrugged
"I'm a light sleeper. It doesn't take much to wake me."

"Me too. I've learnt... from past experiences." She looked lost in memories for a moment, then shook her head.

"Same here." Shadow replied.

Eliza smiled.
"So I don't get why we didn't get along... We're quite alike."

Shadow shrugged.
"Dunno."

"Hello." Shadow said dully.

"Hi, phoenix" Eliza smiled.

"It's been better..." Shadow said quietly.

"Could be worse." Eliza said.

Emmalynn trudged into the dorms, dragging her bookbag behind her. She had a cut on her face that was still bleeding and dark purple circles under her eyes.

"Stupid dad... stupid Draco... stupid Voldemort... Don't know why they want me... They know I hate them," she muttered, not realizing there were others in the room. She tossed her bag on her trunk and fell onto her bed. She took a deep breath before screaming into her pillow, muffling the sound.

Emmalynn's head whipped up. She hadn't realized that she wasn't alone.

"Uhm. No, actually, I'm not alright," she said, resigned, "I was just tortured..."

Eliza sat down on the bed beside her, but didn't know what to say.

Shadow looked over, frowning slightly.
"Do you want me to heal that for you?" She asked, gesturing towards the cut on her face.

"Ok, try not to move." Shadow said, walking over to stand next to Emmalynn. Putting a hand close to the wound, she muttered something under her breath. A white mist surrounded the cut, healing it into a small, neat scar.

"Well, do you want to talk about it, or shall we sit here and provide company?"

Smartie walked in and saw that shadow was healing Emmalynn.

"Bad day?" she asked sympatheticaly.

"Lucky for Shadow" Smartie said. she sat down on one of the beds. and watched

"You're welcome." Shadow said, "Do you want to tell us what happened?"

"its alright if you dont," Smartie inputted

"No, it's okay. Just let me go splash my face first," Emmalynn said, getting up and walking to the bathroom.

((Note to reader: Elladora is typing this and I accidently wrote 'slash' instead of 'splash'... We started cracking up.))

(LOL)

Smartie sighed and sat up on the bed got out a piece of paper and staredto draw something.

Shadow nodded and went back to sit on her bed. While she waited for Emmalynn to come back, she started to read a book in gaelic.

Eliza was glad that Emmalynn was ok, and she sat back down on her own bed.

I wonder what happened, Smartie thought to herself.

Shadow picked up her book and began to read again.

In the bathroom, Emmalynn splashed her face with cold water and washed her hands. There was dried blood and dirt under her fingernails and on her skin. She realized that she probably should've washed up before she came back to school.

Emmalynn walked back into the dorm room and sat on her bed. She took a deep breath and asked, "Do you guys want the short version or the longer one?"

"Go for the longer one I think, if you don't mind that is." Shadow said, looking up from her book.

Phoenix Entered the girls bedroom, she had a bad.
"Voldemort, the idiot" she murmured under her breath.

"What's up?" Shadow asked.

"remember in the girl bathroom yesterday? well voldemort told my twin sister is alive and that i have to kill every muggleborn i lay eyes upon" sighed phoenix

"That's going to be harsh." Shadow said.

"well thats life" said phoenix lying on her bed

Shadow shrugged.
"Not much you can do about it."

"True" said phoenix "have you done that Defence aganist the dark arts home" asked phoeix
