Seen through the eyes of Professor Dumbledore
I heard a slight buzzing sound over top of my head so I broke my meditation to find out what was going on. I went over to my looking glass to be faced with a wonderful sight. Young Harry Potter, Megan Allaway, and Draco Malfoy were dancing... together? I am quite perplexed, I must go to see what is going on.
I came in just as the song ended so I clapped my hands together, for their excellent dancing techniques as well as at the perplexing ways of these youngsters. The three young folk quickly jumped off the table and moved towards me, all of them are quite subdued.
"Hmm, you three seem to enjoy dancing... Why don't we invite the whole school to join you?" I asked slowly reading the changing expressions on their faces, "How would you feel if we had another Yule Ball?"
Excellent, they seem to be considering this. Megan seems confused, but hten again she doesn't know what a Yule ball is. The two boys are probably contemplating the difficulties they had faced the last time there was a Yule ball.
"Um, sure Professor." Draco said looking at the other two. In the course of just a few songs the boy seems to have changed completely. Something has most definitely changed between the two boys, there seems to be an understanding between them now, I wonder what it is. The other two children shrugged their shoulders in agreement.
"Fine then, we shall have a ball, and as punishment, it is your job to arrange it. We can't have students dancing on tables early in the morning." I said in my quiet way, silently laughing with delight.
"And what is this music, Ms. Allaway?" I ask. Megan looked down at the ground as more music came on. I laughed with the two boys as the tension left. Megan started to shake with laughter when she turned to Harry.
A flash of red hair told me whom she thought Harry should ask. That set us all laughing again. Harry blushed a little then I left so they could have some breakfast.
Seen through the eyes of Megan
Well, that's one supper for the 'team book'. Hee hee hee. Man I miss them peeps... Oh man, when Dumbledore stood up to give his announcement, I almost died of laughter.
He stood up and was all, "This morning I had an inspiration. So I have decided that we should have a Yule Ball, much like the one we had two years ago."
Of course when he said that most of the older students, who remembered the last occasion, groaned, rather loudly. "However, this year the Ball will be organized by Mr. Harry Potter, Mr. Draco Malfoy, and Ms. Megan Allaway, if you have suggestions of music and/or decorations, please go to them. And on a final note, the Ball is for fourth years and up unless a younger student is invited. That is all, enjoy your dinner."
Oh man, what did he expect? The Hall exploded of course, Ron, Hermione, and also Ginny, not to mention most of the Gryffindors, were slightly angered by the fact that Draco was helping to organize the dance. They seem particularly worried by the fact that it would mean working with their 'little angel', whoever that is. Harry tried to assure them that it wasn't as bad as it seemed. I personally think that it didn't work. The two of us ended up leaving early, without finishing my food I might add, darned WITs. We walked together, and when we were starting up the marble staircase we heard pounding feet behind us.
Draco had followed us. He wanted to apologize and say, "I, just wanted to say sorry, for everything." then he turned away and went back down.
Harry called, "You're forgiven."after him. I just beamed at the guy and he got all bothered by it and told me, "Okay, okay, whatever." then he turned away.
What's with all these people turning away from me Cl'o? It just doesn't make sense. Kay I'm done you two, have a good night, and don't let Hagrid see ya, he might have a heart attack over seeing two absolutely gorgeous Pegasus just standing around. And now to go back to the castle and make sure everyone's asleep. I wonder what I should prepare them for tonight? Mayhaps I should work on the others... nah.
Hey, do I hear a thank-you in that whinny? Them two... What is a girl to do with her very own flying horses?

That night at the supper table after Dumbledore's little announcement, people were beginning to pair up. Ron asked Hermione, Stacy asked Dean, Sheldon asked Robyn, and Clifford asked Natalie. Each time the question was asked everyone just burst into gushiness, and there was a great amount of awing and so by the end of it we made eight bright red Gryffindors. Many other bright red students left the Hall as either boy or girl got up the nerve to ask their crush out.
What idiots. What a grand way to get some kicks. Then again, it is the weekend. There's just one more week before Christmas break, and just 4 days after that it'd be Christmas. Life just can't get better then this.
I was sitting in front of the fireplace with a couple of the girls. Tonight was the new moon, so Megan's fast asleep, and beside her Katie's reading a book by the fire, and Shayna's quietly playing her fiddle.
She's learning how to play from this Irish chick in Hufflepuff. Her and Holly had of course introduced us to the people they had met, and we all watched the Quidditch matches together. We're definitely getting to know lots of students here. Its great being able to just sit here and rearrange my thoughts in the flame like this.
Megan still hasn't gotten her voice back, I'm beginning to wonder if she ever will. That night, when Voldemort attacked, still gives me the willies when I think about it. It was just two years ago...
The flames are dancing now as my powers manipulate them into that horrid face, my memory of that night reliving itself in liquid fire as I watch. He and his cronies had come to our school, probably to get at us and our powers. Then the bastard attacked each of us with a Crutiatus curse, trying to discover what powers we had. Stupid idiot, none of us gave him anything. I remember screaming to the high heavens. Megan was the last to get his 'special' treatment. He performed the curse, but instead of screaming in pain like us all, she simply looked at him. She didn't even seem angry, she just looked him in the eye and didn't even flinch. He did it over and over again, he even got the Death Eaters to curse her as well. Nothing happened though. Then Voldemort got extremely angry and would have killed her. Luckily for us, wizards from the Ministry showed up just then. So the death eaters disapparated and left them alone. And Megan hasn't spoken a word aloud since.
I guess I shouldn't complain, I mean she can still communicate telepathically, but it's not the same, and she'll probably never sing again. I think that hurts more then even never hearing her speak again.
Seen through the eyes of Harry
In no time at all the Holidays were upon us. Megan, Draco and I are spending practically every night in an old classroom together perfecting ideas of what we should do.
I finally got the nerve to ask Ginny out, after some coaching from Megan sure, but she agreed and so I'm happy. I'm actually surprised at Megan. Quite a few boys have asked her out, in front of me and some of the others too. She turned them all down as nicely as she could, without speaking of course, I don't know how she does it. Krista and Nikisa also said no to all their suitors, telling them all that they preferred going stag, though they also promised a dance to each boy, which I guess is nice of them. Then there's Kate. Kate didn't get asked out, mainly because whenever a boy came up to her with that look in his eyes she glared him down like no tomorrow.
Draco, Megan and I finished planning for the Ball on the twenty second, and had it set for Christmas Eve. It will be an excellent affair, I just know it.
I woke up Christmas morning with an excess of high spirits. It had snowed 4 inches during the night. Looking out into the snow someone yelled out "Snowball fight!!!" in the middle of the common room, so what did we do? Everyone in Gryffindor grabbed their cloaks and raced outside to the Quidditch pitch. The snowball fight was HUGE! We all split up into two teams and just pelted each other with snow, a few innocent bystanders got dragged into the fray, and of course magic snowballs can be so much larger then otherwise.
It ended when Nikisa looked at her watch and saw that it was five o'clock. She shrieked something about having to get ready and so all the girls left.
Splat. Why am I suddenly in a snow bank? I dug myself up to find Megan and Kate laughing at me and the other boys who were joining me in the snowbank. I waved my wand and threw a huge fistful of snow at the two girls. They shrugged of the snow then blew huge sheets of snow at each other and us boys again.
An hour later we quit, for the soul reason of being too tired. I was wiped, mostly from having to dig myself out of snowbanks for an hour. As the lot of us walked into the castle we ran into Draco.
"Potter, Megan I need to talk to you." he said glaring at the other Gryffindors, using his old facade around the others. The rest of the house went on up the stairs, as Draco turned back to his two friends.
"Sorry Harry, I needed to talk to Megan, and I'm sure people would get angry if I you know." he said awkwardly.
"Don't worry Draco, wouldn't be the first time." I said with a grimace as I remembered the first time he had tried to talk to Megan alone.
Flashback
It was just after lunch in the Great Hall and Harry and Megan were with the others getting ready to go to their respective classes when Draco came over to them.
"Megan I need to talk to you," he had said, all shy like. The Gryffindors had immediately grabbed her arms and marched her right out the door without a backward glance at the befuddled Slytherin boy left standing by their table.
End
"Megan, what are you wearing tonight?" Draco asked. Her clothes flickered and were replaced by dark blue flares, and a black tank top. Draco nodded as he looked her over, but then looked down at the floor, his cheeks coloring faintly, "I don't have any clothes to match you, I only have robes."
Megan shook her head at him as she tilted his head up to look into her smiling face. She took out her wand waved it and suddenly her outfit, plus another for Draco appeared in their arms. Draco's new outfit was a pair of black jeans, that were really baggy, and a dark-blue muscle shirt. He smiled at her gratefully and said good-bye to me.
We had to rush to get ready, especially since we were supposed to be down half an hour before the rest of the school, so Megan and I raced the entire way. We arrived utterly breathless, and our race was a tie. I graciously allowed Megan to enter the common room first and I followed close behind. Megan turned back to me once we were inside. In her hands was another muggle outfit which she offered to me. I took it and got dressed in my dorm. Ron and the others were already there and half-way dressed. Most of them also had the new muggle style robes. Though I guess that would be understandable since half of them had asked Canadian girls out. Even Ron had jeans and a t-shirt. They were really nice too, much nicer then his old maroon colored robes he had worn two years ago.
I was downstairs again in ten minutes, and I found Megan there waiting for me. We raced back down to the hall and surprisingly enough ran into Draco, who was also running.
"Hey Draco, you look nice man." I told him, looking him over. Megan and him looked nice and they showed off for me.
"You too man, I hope your date matches." he said sniggering. I also had baggy black pants though instead of wearing a dark blue top mine was deep green. Megan just shook her head and gave him a look.
No worries Harry, I've thought of everything. she told him telepathically.
We began rearranging the two halls for the dance soon afterwards. The Entrance Hall was going to be set up with tables and comfy chairs, with a snack bar to one side of course. We were going to leave the doors slightly open to give a nice cool draft, but we had to wait for that until everyone was finished eating supper. In the Dining Hall the tables were still set up, but we had turned off all the lights, and had lighted only a few candles Megan had set up the rest of the lighting to come from the moonlight, which she had somehow enhanced. The light trickled down to bathe parts of the hall with soft silver glow, and the stars that twinkled prettily, changing position every now and then to form new constellations.
It took us about forty minutes to have everything set for later and by that time we could hear everyone in the entrance hall. With a thumbs up sign to the others, I went to the doors and opened them wide. Draco and Megan came and held open the doors on either side as I gave an announcement.
"May I have your attention please, thank you. Tonight we will be dining in the great hall as usual, however we have pre-determined where you will be sitting tonight. Name tags are at every place setting. When you enter the hall, tell your name to one of the three of us and we will direct you to your spots. Do not try to change spots as that will result in your expulsion from dinner by quite forceful means. Also no fighting will be permitted whatsoever. If you are found fighting you will be expelled from the dance and Professor Dumbledore will be giving you a month worth of detention. Our goal for this evening is to bring the four houses together in fellowship and we hope that our goal is accomplished. Have a good supper and we shall see you afterwards."
I must have gone through 300 people before everyone was sat down. Ginny came to me too, and I had to take a few minutes to explain that I wouldn't be able to go to supper. We had put her next to Nicole and Kate so she wouldn't feel too lonely.
Megan Draco and I went about decorating out in the hall, and everywhere else too. We replaced many of the walls with a scene of the sky. It made for an interesting effect when going up the stairs, and of course the hall was set up just as we wanted it. Puffy cushions and all. We even decorated outside the castle by growing huge willow trees with the help of Robyn. We had told her what effect we had wanted and she produced the seeds. Then Megan provided the light we needed to grow them tall and strong. When we were finally finished, we quietly entered the dining hall where the feast was over. Dumbledore was speaking to the students.
"Now I must ask you all to be on your best behavior, I wouldn't like to be giving out too many detentions. But not only that we will be together for the rest of this year, and perhaps some more after that, so don't ruin things for yourselves. Also I would like to give a round of applause to our three organizers who have done such a great job." he said as he noticed the three of us by the door.
"Sir, if you will all kindly adjourn to the Foyer, while we prepare the dance floor. There are snacks and tables for everyone." I said as Megan and Draco again opened the doors for everyone to pass.
Seen through the eyes of Krista
The doors closed behind me with a slam that I didn't expect. I let out my breath and slumped against the door. I don't know how I made it through supper tonight, sitting where I did I should be in detention already. My patience must be infinite. I was sitting next to Neville, the most annoying boy I know, and on my other side were the two twins. Grr... I hate girly girl preps like that. How could Megan put me through that!
Music floated to my ears, through the thick doors. I turned and flung them open. The three of them must have been really busy to have pulled all this off in five minutes. All the tables are gone, and they've got that cool barrier going on. The lighting of course is amazing, but Telum shouldn't have been able to help that.
The new Swollen Members song was playing and I just couldn't help but moving to the beat. I turned and grabbed Nikisa and Kate, dragging them out to the floor we started to dance. Megan, Harry and Draco were up on their little stage, dancing and beckoning us in. A few other students came and joined us on the floor until I'm sure everyone was dancing. I was having a grand time; Then the song ended.
"WELCOME, to the second ever Hogwarts Ball, put on in honor of our guests from over seas. We three up here, well these two, will be up here all night if you want to request a song go right ahead, they will be able to play it for you, though if they don't know it you might have to sing it to them. Music is not restricted to wizarding music, it can be muggle if you want it, and if you know it, and if you don't request it, we won't play it. Now, we'll be turning the moon off in twenty minutes, or so, meaning, if you want to find someone do it before then, or else, you probably won't, also, no one is aloud past this barrier, and if you are wanting to talk, please go into the Entrance Hall. Is that it?" Harry announced using a mic. He turned to his accomplices as Draco shook his head and took the mike.
"HAVE FUN!!" he yelled. The mike disappeared and a new song came on. A song by Alien Ant Farm, and everyone started dancing again. I saw Harry jump the rail, and come join Ginny, who was dancing with us. Lots of couples were pairing up and everyone else got into groups with their friends and started to dance to the song while Draco and Megan started up some light shows, while Megan did. She appeared to be having fun.
I heard a slight buzzing sound over top of my head so I broke my meditation to find out what was going on. I went over to my looking glass to be faced with a wonderful sight. Young Harry Potter, Megan Allaway, and Draco Malfoy were dancing... together? I am quite perplexed, I must go to see what is going on.

Now, we'll be turning the moon off in twenty minutes, or so, meaning, if you want to find someone do it before then, or else, you probably won't, also, no one is aloud past this barrier, and if you are wanting to talk, please go into the Entrance Hall. Is that it?" Harry announced using a mic. He turned to his accomplices as Draco shook his head and took the mike.
"HAVE FUN!!" he yelled. The mike disappeared and a new song came on. A song by Alien Ant Farm, and everyone started dancing again. I saw Harry jump the rail, and come join Ginny, who was dancing with us. Lots of couples were pairing up and everyone else got into groups with their friends and started to dance to the song while Draco and Megan started up some light shows, while Megan did. She appeared to be having fun.
