Blast to the Past
Chapter Six: Halloween Masquerade
By Kitty Malfoy (KM)
KM: Hey Everyone! Guess what?! I've got a new story for all of you! It is entirely H.P. based. Just a note: I used the name and description of the main character on Sailor Moon. Don't hurt me, but she is not used as a SM char in this story. I just like the name, and I think the description fits the name perfectly. NO NASTY REVIEWS ABOUT THIS!!
P.S. Peter Pettigrew is not in here because I don't want him in mah story. He'll stink it all up with his foul stench! Icky-Icky-ICKY!!! He's so…so…so…DIRTY!
Please read on…….
P.S. This chappy is dedicated to one of my bestest buds, Sharmalade. She thought of a bunch of the ideas in this chapter. Cheerios!
~^*~^*~^*~^*~^*~^*~^*~^*~^*~^*~^*~^*~^*~^*~
"Hey, you guys….." James put his hand on the door handle.
"DON'T COME IN!" Several voices screamed shrilly.
"Sorry Jamsie-poo" That was Serenity "No-access!"
"S'ok Sere. We're gonna head down and get some tables in the Great Hall. You guys can find us down there right?"
Lily snorted. "I think we can manage. Not many people will be wearing togas."
"Hurry up and go or these girls will never get ready!"
There were about twelve other girls in their room in various states in getting ready. Lily was at the vanity trying to find make-up to match her costume. She was wearing a royal blue toga that reached the floor, and had two straps, that crossed in the front. A long black cord was wrapped around her waist several times and the tails trailed majestically behind her. Her auburn-red hair was pulled up in a French twist with only a few strands hanging down around the golden circlet that adorned her forehead. Reaching down she laced up her knee-high sandals and pulled on a golden armband.
She had finally decided on dark blue eye shadow and a light pink lipstick when Serenity's frustrated cry was heard over the hubbub.
"URGH! How do you get these on?! Couldn't the Greeks have something practical to wear?"
Lily came running over in time to stop Serenity from setting fire to her toga. "You could just wear nothing…" Lily said off-hand.
"That's be perfect. I mean it'd go with my character…..the whole love, desire, beauty thing. Blah, Blah BLAH!"
Lily grinned at her knowingly, "Yeah, I'm sure Snape would love---"
"GIVE ME THE TOGA!!"
Lily laughed and helped her into her outfit. It was a deep, blood red with only one strap over her left shoulder and came down to the ground, as well. Her waist was bound, like Lily's, in a golden cord. Her golden hair had been crimped and left down and reached her sandaled feet. Her entire jewelry consisted of a gold circlet, a golden armband on each arm, and over a hundred golden bangles on her wrists.
Following Lily she sat down next to her at the vanity. Serenity chose a pale pink eye shadow, vibrant red lipstick, and finished it off with a coat of 'Shimmer 'N Glitter' powder all along her face and shoulders.
Finishing their make-up, and making way for Molly and a Fourth Year at the vanity, Lily pulled out their masks. Lily's was a dark blue covered in blue-black sequins. The nose of the mask was shaped to resemble an owl's beak and was a rich golden color. At each end were three feathers from Lily's barn owl, Kylie. Slipping it on, Serenity charmed it for her so that it would stay in place.
Serenity's mask was a dark red color and covered in glitter. At the corners of the eyes there were small round garnets. At each corner of the mask were the downy, white feathers of a dove.
Molly came up behind them to model her outfit. It was a rich, silky gold color that came to just above her feet. The halter-like top showed off her slender shoulders - dappled with freckles. The front part of her extremely curly red hair was pulled back into a golden, leaf shaped, barrette, and the rest bounced along her shoulders. She was wearing a shimmery beige eye shadow and her lips were a tanned golden color. She was of course wearing a gold circlet, and four or five bangles on her right hand.
"Let's go! Our men are waiting for us!"
Snatching up her mask - which was white with gold beads- she linked arms with them and the trio skipped down to the Great Hall.
!@#$%^&*()!@#$%^&*()!@#$%^&*()!
The entrance was rather crowded, so the trio joined the back of the line for a long wait. Trying to pass the time the decided to play 'Which is Worse',
"Which is Worse-Not brushing your teeth for a month or not washing your hair for a month?" Serenity asked.
"Hair."
"Hair. My turn. Which is Worse-Peeing in your pants or peeing in your bed." Lily asked.
"Bed-that's gross!"
"Pants-Everyone would know about it!"
"My turn," Molly said. "Which is Worse-Your parents hating your boyfriend or your boyfriend's parents hating you?"
" Oh I'd hat it if James' parents hated me----did I just say James?"
"Yes you did, Lilz."
"Oops. You didn't hear it from me. What do you think, Serenity?"
She looked at them blankly. "I don't know…..look we can get in." She brushed past them and hurried into the Hall, but Lily swore she heard her whisper, "I wouldn't know….."
!@#$%^&*()!@#$%^&*()!@#$%^&*()!
(Everyone who is a Greek God or Goddess is called by their counterpart name- ty!)
The minute she stepped into the Hall, Aphrodite was grabbed and pulled onto the dance floor. She turned sharply, and was looking into a tall dark hard masked-man. "Oh, it's you Ares." She said. But her voice was not her own. She had seen to that by using a simple Voice-Changing Charm. Instead of her normal soprano it was a seductively low alto, causing her voice to sound like purring.
He was wearing a black, knee-length, sleeved toga covered by a dark black breastplate. His dark raven locks were hanging messily over his golden circlet, and he clasped her hands in his which were decorated with golden gauntlets.
"Hello, Aphrodite."
"Where are Zeus and Apollo?"
"Enjoying the feast I believe….."
She purred again, and laid her head down on his armored shoulder, as a slow song began to play.
(Frozen by Madonna)
You only see what your eyes want to see
How can life be what you want it to be
You're frozen when your heart's not open
You're so concerned with how much you get
You waste your time with hate and regret
You're broken when your heart's not open
Mmm,Mmm,Mmm.. If I could melt your heart
Mmm,Mmm,Mmm.. we'd never be apart
Mmm,Mmm,Mmm.. Give yourself to me
Mmm,Mmm,Mmm.. You hold the key
Now there's no point in placing the blame
And you should know I'd suffer the same
If I loose you, my heart would be broken
Love is a bird, she needs to fly
Let all the hurt inside of you die
You're frozen when your heart's not open
You're broken when your heart's not open
Mmm,Mmm,Mmm.. If I could melt your heart
Mmm,Mmm,Mmm.. we'd never be apart
Mmm,Mmm,Mmm.. Give yourself to me
Mmm,Mmm,Mmm.. You hold the key
You only see what your eyes want to see
How can life be what you want it to be
You're frozen when your heart's not open
You're broken when your heart's not open
Mmm,Mmm,Mmm.. If I could melt your heart
Mmm,Mmm,Mmm.. we'd never be apart
Mmm,Mmm,Mmm.. Give yourself to me
Mmm,Mmm,Mmm.. Love holds the key
Mmm,Mmm,Mmm.. If I could melt your heart
Mmm,Mmm,Mmm.. we'd never be apart
Mmm,Mmm,Mmm.. Give yourself to me
Mmm,Mmm,Mmm.. Love holds the key
If I could melt your heart
If I could melt your heart
The song ended, and Aphrodite looked up at him. He was staring at her strangely. Before she knew what was happening he was kissing her deeply; his tongue tasting her lips. She looked up surprised, and almost got lost in his black, depth-less eyes.
What a minute! Ares doesn't have black eyes. His are brown! Then who's---
"Oh my god!!"
!@#$%^&*()!@#$%^&*()!@#$%^&*()!
"Where is she Athena? You said she was right in front of you and Hestia!"
He was tall with dark hair, and chocolate colored eyes that were glittering in annoyance. He was wearing a blood red, knee-length, sleeved toga covered in a black breastplate. He nervously matted his raven locks down onto his golden circlet, his gold gauntlets flashing in the candlelight being emitted from the hundreds of floating jack-o-lanterns.
"Chill out warrior boy, she's here somewhere."
"But she should be HERE in my arms!"
The group gathered turned and looked at him in surprise. "Oh really, son?" Zeus asked mockingly.
"Only playing along---oh there she is!"
The group turned around, to the direction he was pointing and stared in shock. Ares was practically growling, and the goblet in his hand began to bend in half.
There was Aphrodite, dancing in the arms of a different man. Almost totally alike in appearance to Ares. Almost. Ares leapt out of his chair as the stranger kissed his golden-haired beauty, and strode angrily forward with the other Olympians trailing after him.
"Oh my god!"
Aphrodite wrenched out of the stranger's grasp and stumbled backwards. "Who the hell are you?! You're not my love, Ares!"
The Ares-look-a-like flinched slightly at her proclamation of love towards Ares. He sneered down at her.
"That's exactly what I'd like to know."
"Hades. At your service."
Hermes stood forward, "I can see why someone with your background would chose Hades."
"Shut up, Bird-Boy. I believe the lovely Aphrodite and I were in the middle of something….."
Aphrodite quaked in between Athena and Hestia. Apollo placed a comforting hand on her shoulder, and she smiled back at him.
"Don't. Touch. Me! How dare you lie and take advantage of me."
Ares stepped in beside Aphrodite, and stopped Hades' advances. "Figures-The only way you could get a girl was if they were dead. Let's go, love."
!@#$%^&*()!@#$%^&*()!@#$%^&*()!
~*~11:00 pm~*~
"You and Ares have been dancing quite a lot…."
Aphrodite laughed, as he spun her around to the beat of the music.
"Yes, Apollo. I do believe he is frightened I will wander off with another tall and handsome man if he is not there to defend his title."
Apollo laughed as well, but then became silent "Aphrodite….."
"Yes?"
"I've been meaning to talk to you about last night….."
She looked away for a moment and then in to his blue-gray eyes, searchingly. "You didn't tell anyone, did you?"
He shook his head sadly. "No, but I wish you would."
"I can't do that!" She said sharply; her purring voice taking on a frightened edge. "The things I know cannot be told! It could changed the future!"
"The future is already changed by your being here!" He shouted back; equally emotional. "Don't you know that?"
Aphrodite was taken aback at his unusual tone, and nodded her head in shock. "Yes I know, I'm sorry fellow brother. I totally understand what you are trying to do, but-----not just yet……please."
He looked at her a moment before nodding his head. "As you wish. But I keep my piece only because you are like a sister to me….." Aphrodite smiled and kissed his cheek before they parted at the songs ending.
"Let's go--I think my brother Ares would like another dance, Aphro!"
"What did you call me?! Oooooh! You are gonna pay for that !"
!@#$%^&*()!@#$%^&*()!@#$%^&*()!
"I love you."
"I love you, too."
"Hey look! Are we under mistletoe?"
"What? Where………? Hey! That's for Chri---"
Aphrodite and Ares stood beneath the moonlight, safe in each other's arms. Their kiss - sealing a prophecy.
'The daughter scared
And beaten hard
Her mother dead
On her father's head
The brother once dark
But rejected the evil mark
Now saves her life
From a place of strife
Her trip home
By the sea foam
Was cut short by suicide
Her body would hide
Between Space and Time
Her tale to be told in Rhyme
She was not killed
But left to live fulfilled
A life not alone
In a Time not her own
A man not held by iron bars
His heart's home in the stars
A moonlight kiss
A time to reminisce
For later on
When he's gone
He will return
Now it's his turn
A precious ring
Hearts will sing
But she will not let go
Not "yes" is said, but "no".
Running away
To return one day
Her mind has fled
She never wed
Her heart had broke
When she spoke
The him that way
Never to speak after that day
A girl insane
And when the moon wanes
She will return
For his touch she will yearn
A hero's fight
To make it right
Return his love's mind
In wedding- to bind
A bride beneath her wedding veil
So ends the maiden's tale'
!@#$%^&*()!@#$%^&*()!@#$%^&*()!
