[Event #1] Need you out from here! ((OPEN))

((I'm cool with both of those things. XD))

Miranda had run full out from the lawns up to the hospital wing. Her mind raced for a course of action. She needed to gather any teacher she could find. They needed to lock down the school.

Sitka. I need Sitka. was all she could think. He would know what to do. Grace trailed right behind her as she burst into the hospital wing.

She gasped for breath and, upon seeing the crowd, nearly cried in relief. "Belle! Dean! Thank goodness!! Something's wrong. We need to....we....need...." her voice trailed off as her eyes took in the scene. The blood. Sitka's anger ridden expression. Her own troubles immediately fled her mind as she saw his face. She stepped gently up to him and took his hand.

"Sitka? Sitka what's going on?"

Grace followed Miranda hurriedly, glancing behind them as they went. She figured Miranda wasn't very dangerous and saw herself as her bodyguard of sorts. She stared around grimly as they entered the hospital wing and kept her wand out.

They entered the hospital wing and gasped under her breath at the amount of blood everywhere, looking around she immediately jumped to the conclusion that something similar to what had happened during class had occurred in the hospital wing.

Sitka was still watching Dean and Belle when Miranda followed by a student entered in the room.. seeing her he jumped.. she shouldn't see what happened here!
"Mi- Miranda.." he stuttered as she took his hand.. he didn't know how to start.. what could he say to her? He was still furious for waht happened but at the same time devastated.. He watched her for a few minutes.. "Miranda!" he sobbed and placed his head into her shoulder crying.. he wasn't able to talk again as the anger was leaving a place to the sadness.. as all the things he feel before that moment just blowed out from him..

Startled, Miranda instinctively wrapped her arms around Sitka, pulling him to her. She lifted a hand and gently stroked the back of his head.
"Shhh.." she said softly. "It's going to be alright. We're going to figure out whatever's going on here."
She didn't know what to say. And she couldn't bring herself to look around. She refused to ask him what had happened. It was obviously too horrific. She merely held him close, oblivious to all else around them.

"Lilo.." the only words that Sitka could say before tighten her more.. he didn't even notice that another student entered in the room.. his head was still on Miranda's shoulder.. "She's.. is.." he couldn't continue to speak..

Dean was looking at Aileen nervously, she didn't seem to be in her right mind and that worried him. Had he been acting like that? Like some kind of deranged zombie on a mission?

"Guys," He said trying to bring the other adults' attention to the teenager who was standing in the centre of the room. He slowly got to his feet, he really didn't want to provoke an attack from either Aileen or Sitka.

Grace eyed the girl doubtfully, she didn't seem very, normal. In fact she made the hairs on the back of Grace's neck stand up straight. She almost expected it as Sitka fell, and helped Ms. Melgrove support him, while dragging them all behind a bed quickly. The screams of the muggle studies professor filled the air but Grace was completely unaffected by torture.

She grimaced and looked down at Sitka, trying to quickly remember a counter-curse. After a moment and none came to mind she gave up on him and peeked around the edge of the bed, seeing the slytherins body posed dramatically as she tortured the professor. Grace rose her wand, "STUPEFY!" she said strongly, flinging the girl into a bed across the infirmary.

Belle felt tears finally sting her eyes at seeing Sitka break down, sob into Miranda's shoulder. She turned away, not willing to watch him, and to hide her own tears. She couldn't even look at Dean, or Grace as she entered the room. How could this have happened so quickly? Not too long ago, she had been thinking of the charming new friends she had met, how this year was getting better all the time. And now this. But then another student, Aileen, entered. Belle wiped her eyes, noticing how Dean was looking at her. She glanced back at her. The way Aileen spoke, the way she moved, it was almost like...how Dean had spoken and moved not too long ago. What was going on? But any questions she had faded away when she uttered the Cruciatus Curse at Dean. Belle felt her heart go cold at seeing her best friend fall to the ground, pain racking his body. "No!" Without even thinking, she ran to his side, even though it would do no good. "Stop it! Please!" she begged, tears running down her face. Grace, however, was a quicker thinker and cast a spell at Aileen. But that just turned the Slytherin's fury towards her, casting a spell at her fellow student without a second thought. She couldn't even think of what to do, how to act. Grief had taken over her senses and all she could do was sob pathetically.

The pain was almost unbearable, like tiny pinpricks all over his body but each pin was a knife cutting down to the bone. Dean couldn't even comprehend what was happening around him until the curse was abruptly lifted and he found himself with Belle's arms around his shoulders and Aileen was pointing her wand at Grace. 

"Sectumsempra," it looked like Aileen's curse was doing the work of a thousand sharp knives, tearing Grace's body to shreds. 

"We need to get out of here," he muttered. 

Grace screamed, she hated that spell, it was like cheating to her, a simple spell and your enemy is lying in their own cold blood. The curse tore open millions of cuts all over her, causing her to fall to the ground. She barely felt the pain, she never did, it was like watching it happen to someone else, a bystander of her own pain. her only hope was that someone would stop the bleeding before it got any worse.

Miranda yelped as Sitka went stiff in her arms. Her head snapped around to find Aileen with an odd expression on her face. "Sitka!" she yelled. Grace was soon at her side and helping her pull him behind a bed and safety.

"Dean!" she yelled as the curse hit him. She had to do something...anything. But panic crowded her consciousness and she couldn't move. Before she knew what was happening, Aileen had moved on to Grace. As she saw the young woman on the floor writhing in pain, her protective instincts kicked back in.

"Grace!" she shouted. She shot a spell in the slytherin's direction but it missed. As Aileen moved on, she slid to the young girl's side. Blood poured from dozens of cuts all over her body. "OOooh." she moaned. "We're going to fix this, Grace. Stay calm. It's going to be alright." Moving her wand over the girl's body, she murmurred, "Vulnera Sanentur".
The bleeding stopped, though the skin was still raw. But before she could repeat the spell she heard a low cackle. Aileen had turned on Belle.
"No!" she yelled. "Aileen no more!"
She raised her wand and pointed it, "Petrificus Totalus!" the body bind jinx shot at the slytherin.

"But...Grace..." The poor girl was bleeding badly. They couldn't leave her behind, could they? She knew that wasn't what Dean meant, but she couldn't help but think it. But she didn't have time to think about it for long. Aileen had her wand pointed at her, ready to strike with whatever spell came to her mind. Belle fumbled with her own wand, trying to draw it out and cast a spell before Aileen could, but she was too slow. The soon felt the pain of the Cruciatus Curse just like so many other teachers, and like some of them, she screamed as the pain touched every part of her body, every single nerve-ending. All she could think was Oh God, stop, stop, somebody make it stop. Please.

The screams that left the brunette woman's mouth caused Aileen to cackle harder, her blank eyes watching it all. "He's here~" she cooed out once more. Just like with every other Professor she had curse, she uttered these words. For it was the message. And all would hear it. For she was a good little puppet.

She did not take notice of anyone else, for they did not matter at the moment. That was until she heard the blonde Professor shout out a spell. Blank eyes turned her head to the side as she stepped close to Professor Mallery. The spell missed, attacking the wall a ways away for her body was no long there to hit it.Bringing blank eyes back to the tortured Brunette, she hissed out finite before turni0gn towards the troublesome blonde professor.

"I must spread the message Professor." she cooed, sneering as she stepped towards the blonde. "You mustn't get in my way." With a cruel smile, she lifted up her wand t the woman. "You'll receive the message too. Crucio."


(Just so everyone knows, miranda gave ok for spell to miss)

The Minister had been called for an important meeting, scheduled with Albus when he saw the whole school fall to havoc. Clearly, change was sooner than expected and Niklaus did as he usually did, moved unseeingly through the mass of tortured bodies. It was nothing he hadn't seen before and nothing he wouldn't see more of in the near future. No point shedding tears over necessary sacrifices. Humming to himself, he strode onwards.

A scream from the hospital wing penetrated his bubble of perpetual bliss; he wondered why. Then he noticed it, the voice behind the scream. His body tensed, it was the Professor he had spoken to at the Ball and in the Quill Shop. It was Belle Mallery. His eyes narrowed towards the source of the sound, uncertain whether to geopordise his security for a woman he had only encountered few times. Then he remembered with a grimace, she was actually the only one who had made him smile in a long while.

Niklaus, don't get yourself into this mess.

The Minister groaned, feelings were so impractical. Ignoring the trail of tortured Professors Aileen had left in her wake, he solely headed straight for the brunette laying crumpled on the floor.

"Belle," Nik reached down towards her trembling body and lifted her up into the bridal position before placing her limply onto a nearby bed. His eyes flashed with frustration at himself for being so weak and having to enter a potential dangerous situation, and also at the perpertrator of the chaos.

Focussing on the individual he could currently do something about, he strode towards the Slytherin student and cast silent spells to bind her body from moving.

Miranda screamed, and her body collapsed. Lances of pain shot through her entire body. She couldn't see straight, she couldn't think. Her wand clattered uselessly to the floor. Her body convulsed on the floor. She was no longer in control of her movements. It felt as though hundreds of lightning bolts were shooting through her limbs, pulling her flesh in a million different directions. Her voice reverberated through the room, her yells tearing from her body. Her eyelids fluttered, and her eyes rolled into the back of head.
Sitka... The only word that made any sense in her mind. Sitka...

Dean's body was still in shock from the curse, preventing him from putting up much of a fight when the Minister lifted Belle onto a bed. And Miranda's screams were enough to take his attention off the petite brunette entirely.

He wished his practical spell use wasn't so pathetic, maybe then he could actually be of some use, but at the moment the only thing he could use was on the floor behind Aileen.

As the Minister stood straight after placing Belle onto a bed, Dean began pulling himself across the floor towards Grace and Miranda, they needed to get out of the room, maybe then Aileen would just ignore them. How they were going to manage it when Dean could barely stand on his own two feet, Grace was practically in shreds and probably pretty lucid thanks to blood loss and Miranda was still suffering from the Cruciatus Curse.

Juliette was able to get away from Rose, but had to go to the hospital to treat her bite from the cobra. She was still confused to why Rose attacked her. But even if she was attacked by her, it didn't mean she did it with her own mind. No. She looked like she wasn't herself. It was like she was being controlled. And only one spell could do that.

The Imperius curse.

Though Juliette suddenly heard screams which made her instantly ran to the Hospital Wing.

And when she entered the room, her eyes widened as she caught Aileen curse Professor Melgrove. She slowly walked up and saw the same look in her eyes.. The same look Rose had. Which made her eyes widened.. Even if Rose was under the curse, she could feel more protective over Aileen.

"Aileen..?" She asked out. "It's me.. Juliette, can you hear me?" She asked.

Blank eyes watched the body fall down as it withered in pain, the screams shrieking out and filling the room. Like all the screams before, it fell on deaf ears. It was no concern of hers. The message was received that was all that mattered. Aileen began to laugh manically, so happy she was that she was spreading the message. She did not hear the arrival of two others, neither the minister or the blonde student who was the unintentional caused for her being under the imperious curse.

It was when she heard her voice however, that caused Aileen to pause. Blank eyes blinked as she turned her head to see the source. Upon seeing Juliette, blank eyes blinked before ending the curse she had on the blonde professor. The girl was familiar, and it held her attention. The very thing caused her to frown. This was halting her on her mission. That wouldn't do.

With a sneer, she aimed her wand at her friend. "Crucio." she hissed out, watching the spell take flight. It landed on it's target and she watched for a moment of glee before something tugged inside of her.

The curse was short lived as the Minister casted his silent full body bind curse, causing Aileen's body to freeze and fall to the ground. Blank eyes closed as everything was starting to register in her fogged mind. Juliette..


Juliette! Blue eyes snapped open, starting to come into focus as Aileen tried to look about her. Only to panic when she realized her body was paralyzed and she could not move. What's happening? What's going on!? Confusion and panic were clear in her eyes as she was left in her vulnerable state.

Juliette's eyes widened when Aileen had pointed the wand at her. And before she could yell at Aileen to stop, she was suddenly hit with the curse. She screamed as she fell to the ground, clawing the ground as the curse was bringing her pain.

Though she gasped as she felt the curse suddenly stop. But even if the curse was gone, her body still felt like it was in pain. And it didn't help that she had fell on the leg that had been bitten by the cobra. She shook a little as she laid there, her eyes closed in pain. But now all that she was thinking was that: Who ever put her friends underneath the Imperius curse, were going to pay for it.

She opened her eyes when she suddenly saw Aileen on the ground, hurt in her eyes.

Is she out of the curse?

"A-Aileen..?" She asked out, trying to speak through the pain.

Even though Belle had spotted screaming, the sound of it still filled her ears, echoed off the walls. Then, it hit her that those screams weren't inside her head. They were coming from the very room she was in. And Miranda was the one who was screaming. Miranda... She struggled to see clearly as she tried to push herself off the floor, even though the Cruciatus Curse had made her terribly weak. But before she could even make a move, she felt a pair of strong arms pick her up and place her on one of the beds. She moaned, trying to see who it was. It almost looked like it was Nikalus, of all people. But what was he doing here? "Nik..." That was all she had time to say before he left her side for a moment, probably to take care of Aileen. Miranda's screams were soon followed by another, although Belle couldn't tell who. She was still struggling to get a hold of herself.
