Hogwarts Will Always Be Home (BiancoangelloXShuPhoenix)

[PixieDust]

Imelda watched him from the corner of her eye, noticing the glowing pages of the book. She knew she had to be subtle if she was going to approach him because he would most likely go into panic mode when she saw the book. Smiling to herself she called for her screech owl Portscreech to go over to him, perching near him with curiosity.

 

[Biancoangello]

Angello still chanting, the pages of the book accelerating as they turn endlessly. His eyes sparkle as if he were figuring out secrets of some sort. Suddenly a white figure can be seen above the tree he was under. An owl, Nydia, starts descending and lands in front of Angello breaking his concentration causing the his book to close violently. Nydia looks up at the tree noticing Portscreech and raises her wings in an intimidating fashion letting out a loud screech. Angello notices her unusual behavious and tries to look around thinking that a professor, most likely Lupin, had caught him. He fails to see anything though and packs his book and notebook and lays against the tree sighing. He proceeds to play with Nydia innocently.

 

[PixieDust]

Imelda smiled as she spotted her opportunity to accidentally-on purpose bump into Angello. "Oh Portscreech there you are, I need to send a letter to mum! Oh, hi there Angello, sorry did my owl disturb you?" she asked casually, sitting beside him before he could even protest at all. She may have been slightly suspicious about him, but she still genuinely liked his company and liked talking to him.

 

[Biancoangello]

"oh ... hey.. not at all. I didn't even notice." He scoots back as to give Imelda more space to sit while still scratching Nydia's chest. He buttons his coat as to hide his possessions more yet a glow from the pages was still visible from a hole between the buttons of his clothing which was strange since the book was already closed and concealed.

 

[PixieDust]

Imelda chose to ignore the book. If there was one thing she knew about Slytherins is that they were secretive and unless he trusted her completely there was no way she could coax anything out of him. She decided that the best plan of action was simply to be his friend. "So are you going to Hogsmeade Village at all? I got my permission. Can't wait to go to Honeydukes and Zonko's." She smiled her usual enthusiastic smile and tied her hair up to keep it from blowing in the breeze. "Of course, I live in Godric's Hollow, which is similar, but Hogsmeade is the only all wizarding settlement in Britain." Sometimes she feared she sounded too much like Hermione these days. All that time spent in the girls' dormitory with her was clearly rubbing off on her.

 

[Biancoangello]

"R-really? you live in Godric Hollow? what's it like?" Said Angello enthusiastic. Almost about to take out his notebook from his coat. "Do you know.. about what happened there..? it was a while ago." He added thinking that not much people know about such an event. Yet his eyes sparkled with hope that she might say even the tiniest thing about it.

 

[PixieDust]

Imelda shrugged casually. "You mean about Harry? No, I don't know anything much about it, only where the graves are." She sighed wondering why this was meant to be interesting

 

[Biancoangello]

"No... not Harry... they say that's where Dumbledore used to live.. him and..." Angello pauses realizing that a Gryffindor student might not know what he is talking about. Such knowledge is only bestowed upon those who had been personally close to the events that happened there almost 100 years ago. "Lets get going. I'll treat you to something from Honeydukes"

 

[PixieDust]

Imelda's interest was peaked now, but once again she held her tongue, which being the person she was was getting harder and harder for her to do. "Well, I mean...okay. Thanks I guess," she said, at least pleased to visit Hogsmeade as she stood.

 

[Biancoangello]

"Come with me, I'll show you something that you will like" Angello walks backwards facing Imelda as he keeps getting away signaling her to follow him. He leads her to the Slytherin dungeon and opens the stone wall by murmuring the password. Onced open you can see clearly the green tint of Slytherin's common room. Empty however since all students have already left. "This is why Slytherins are the first at arriving to Hogsmeade and back." He points to a closet and instructs her "Go inside and chant the phrase 'I look awful in these drapes' and when you open the door again, you will be on one of the dressing rooms in Gladrags Wizardwear!" he said enthusiastically

 

[PixieDust]

Imelda was astonished she had been awarded the privilege of even seeing the common room. Outsiders had never seen the common room in over four hundred years as with Hufflepuff and Ravenclaw. All the houses were incredibly secretive except for Gryffindor who were a little more welcoming.


She looked down at her robes and frowned slightly as she spoke the phrase "I look awful in these drapes..." She was wearing her favourite purple robes which she was particularly fond of. As she spoke she indeed ended up in the dressing room of Gladrags. Whistling low to herself she was quite impressed. "Fred and George would love this!"

 

[Biancoangello]

Not long after her did Angello appear on an opossite dressing room "see? that's probably the only time you might use it though heh. So where do you want to go first?" Angello asks before trying to make sure all his possessions remain in order as he puts on his black gloves. A simple look from a commoner could tell that Angello was indeed from a wealthy family.

 

[PixieDust]

Imelda stepped out of the dressing room, enthused with energy, her hazel eyes sparkling with the possibilities of where they could go first. "Perhaps we could go to The Three Broomsticks?" She suggested, "or...Honeydukes or even the Shrieking Shack. Just as long as we don't go to that awful tea shop." She made a disgusted face.

 

[Biancoangello]

"The Shrieking Shack... now that sounds like an interesting place to visit. It surprises me that a Gryffindor student suggested that" he said surprised but more pleased for the suggestion than anything. He stops waiting for Imelda to make her as he looks at her directly with his dark brown eyes. Never before had he opened himself so much to someone else let alone someone from another House. While it was unusual to him and almost uncomfortable, he liked it and thought he could acquire the taste.

 

[PixieDust]

Imelda rose an eyebrow at him playfully. "Surprised that a Gryffindor suggested the most haunted building in Great Britain? Have you forgotten what we lions stand for sir?" She said, pretending to be Nearly-Headless Nick. "We are the house of the brave. If anyone were to take the expedition it would be us!" She added melodramatically.


She greatly enjoyed Angello's company, and gladly admitted it to the dismay of her housemates.

[Biancoangello]

"Let us go then..." He quickly strolls with Imelda to the haunted house grounds and once its in view he stops. He takes out his famous book and reads it while taking glances at the house. "I think i know how to get in... we just need to..." he is silenced has he sees a figure he recognizes, Severus Snape. Why would the professor of potions be doing at such a location, he asked himself. He looked back at Imelda not sure about what course of action they should take.

 

[PixieDust]

"Act, natural," she said through gritted teeth. After all it was not suspicious to be there. Tourists came all year round to see the exterior of the shrieking shack.

 

[Biancoangello]

Angello understood what was going through Imelda's mind but this was Snape. An awkward person to see around Hogsmeade all together unless he is with the students from Slytherin. "Something's wrong... Come with me" He pulls Imelda with him hiding from view and approaches the shack right after Snape goes in. He looks at his book once more forgetting Imelda is so close to him and reads the page filled with moving words, an image of the shrieking shack and instructions on how to get in. They can both hear people arguing deep inside the old house and Angello follows the sounds and hides in the next room that has a crack on the wall that allows view of whats going on. He sees Harry, Hermione and Ron with Professor Lupin, Snape and another man he does not recognize because of his hair.

 

[PixieDust]

Imelda peered into the room over his shoulder and gasped when she spotted the shaggy haired man. "Angello that's Sirius, Sirius Black!" She gasped in fear and alarm. She knew he was a wanted murderer, but her mother had always sworn he hadn't been guilty. She had known him at school and stated that he would never murder anyone.

 

[Biancoangello]

"shhh! wait... wasn't he imprisoned at azkaban?" he says silently. Suddenly Sirius Black mentions a name loudly "..PETER PETTIGREW!".As they keep watching a loud noise is heard as if someone took down a wall. Sirius had aimed his wand at something and then suddenly a third voice was heard. That name sounded familiar to Angello but he still couldn't make anything out of it. He keeps watching intrigued at the situation.

 

[PixieDust]

"Peter Pettigrew? But he's dead?!" Imelda muttered, "and as for Black. He escaped this year that's why the dementors are here!" She was beginning to get a headache from information overload. She jumped when she heard a bang, instinctively holding on to Angello's arm for reassurance.

 

[Biancoangello]

Angello's gets surprised when Imelda grabs him. Almost instinctively alerted since it was rare for someone to touch him. "How do you know all this???" He asks perplexed at Imelda's wide knowledge of things. We can see everyone is ready to leave the shack and Angello pulls Imelda inside one of the bathrooms until it is safe to go out

 

[PixieDust]

"My mother," she explained as she was dragged along by him. "She knew them. Lupin, Snape, Pettigrew, Black and Harry's parents." She said and quickly began explaining the Pettigrew story.

 

[Biancoangello]

"I see... well.. that's something. I'm surprised you know a lot about this yet... you could not answer my earlier question about your hometown..." Said Angello looking back intrigued yet confused on Imelda's mixed yet vast knowledge of the wizard world

 

[PixieDust]

She shrugged "it's my hometown. It's not like many people research where they live. I mean I've heard Dumbledore lived there..." She trailed off. She also knew she lived near the author of A Hisory of Magic, but that was about it other than Gryffindor being the founder.
