Also, the character Fallen the Blue belongs to Sage McJet (another fanfic author.... go read some of his stuff.) Tara Leonheart, Jasmaugik the Orc, Keyone Lufton the Hobbit, Golenesqua the Entwife and Istabugh the Dwarf all belong to Tara Sarber. Justin Wolfe and Hope belong to Melissa (troubledfeline@yahoo.com.) She writes under the pen name of Nosferatu. Rhymes and Jules belong to Kristan Steele. The adventures here were co-written by all of the people above, in a RPG group, and I am just putting them in a readable fashion, because it is a really good story.

"That's no longer my name. It never was." The boy tied to the tree snarled as he tried to sit up. She had been right about only one thing so far in his opinion. He really didn't know who she was. "And, even if I was trained, I never finished my training. I dropped out."

He let out a barking laugh and cocked his head to the side again, eyeing her coolly.

"It is your fault, because you made me hesitate. Then that stupid Muggle came in-": The explosion replayed itself in Justin's head. Shaking the water from his hair, he began to speak again. "And even if you did get me near that... that enfer-" His sentence suddenly dropped off. Unknown to even himself, he had begun to slip into French.* He shook his hair out again and continued. "It'll be just like that damnes prison."

Syd hadn't heard any of the last things Justin said. She was still upset and trying to figure how him blowing up a building was her fault.

"Oh, I'm sorry Justin, I should disguise myself every time I go out my door, so that my old classmates cannot recognize me. You were one of my best friends when you were at Hogwarts. We went tromping all over Middle Earth in those days to find some stupid stuff just so that one type of evil could be restrained from reeking havoc over the Muggles. I'm sorry that I happened to be in a bank that you wanted to robe and you accidentally end up blowing it up because I MADE you look twice at me, and you let in a cop. THIS ISN'T MY FAULT. Why were you trying to rob the bank anyhow?"

Sydney let the question drop, but expected an answer later. Justin, you were a Gryffindor. What happened? You were at Hogwarts for nearly five years and could do almost any kind of magic with your eyes closed. You. You were Lupin's boy, the closest think he had to kids and what have you done? He's still around you know, but you broke his heart when you left. He was a great teacher and I wish that I had the chance to have him as my father."

Sydney dropped her head into her hands. In a softer tone, she continued. "Don't you remember anything from Hogwarts. Don't you remember how much you meant to everyone? And how much pain we all went through when you left?"

* enfer is French for Hell
