A/N: Sorry this took longer than usual. Well, longer for me. Like I said, I hate delays.

So, enjoy. And a big thanks for reading.

Violet went back to acting like the whole 'no rules for Hufflepuff' ordeal had happened. The rest of the house followed suite, but Violet, Amber and June remained friends, with Violet having a cat and being quieter.

Much quieter.

There was a lack of DADA teacher still, so basically whichever teacher had some time filled in, or Dumbledore did.

It seemed that the lunch revelation had been a turning point for Violet. She let everything out with calm words after all that time of breaking every rule possible. Some people worried about her, but most barely noticed.

The other houses were quite relieved that they no longer had to fear Hufflepuff attacks, and a few people did try to inflict revenge.

Violet didn't speak about theRrevolutoin, as it had been called, until Friday, right before she started getting ready to go to the muggle party that she had once gone all dreamy eyed over.

"You're still going?" June asked her, rather shocked. She hadn't expected Violet to break any rules since the 'Revolution' was over.

"Of course! I've never been to a muggle party before. Vi, this is just so wicked!" Amber gushed, in total awe of the idea of partying with muggles.
"Remember, if anyone asks about our school or anything, just lie." Violet instructed Amber.
"What are you gonna do when you get caught!" June demanded.
"Not...get..caught." Violet explained as if this was the most obvious thing in the world.

Amber nodded, giving the 'duh' expression.

June continued warning the two and the two continued ignoring the warnings.

It took an hour of getting ready before the two made their way out into the biting cold in their scandalous 'party clothes.' Amber holding her sides, freezing. She wasn't wearing her cloak, since it was a muggle party, and she was suddenly rather bothered by the fact that these muggles were creeped out by cloaks.

"Aren't you dying?" she asked Violet, shivering again with the cold.

Violet shot her a look that Amber found to be unreadable.

"From the cold. It's freezing out here, remember?" she almost coaxed Violet.
"It's not so bad." Violt decided, watching her words float away in the icy air.
"For penguins." Amber snorted.
"Penguins?"
"Y'know, the little black and white birds. Muggles like 'em! I'm practicing for the party." Amber explained, rather pleased with herself.

Violet grinned at the excited girl, remembering when she would get excited like that.

That was a long time ago. A very, very long time...

But there was no point in focusing on that. The two of them were getting closer and closer to the party. Violet could already see lights up ahead, and she knew that had to be it.

Amber didn't notice the lights as much she noticed Violet. They were breaking some major rules, risking everything for one party, yet Violet looked so serene.

'She's done this before.' Amber silently decided. That would explain why no one really knew Violet. She wasn't there. Well, she was there. She wasn't known for missing class or anything, but still, she wasn't there.

The house holding the party wasn't huge. Or nice. Or quiet.

It looked like it was abandoned when there wasn't a fire burning on the lawn, or people listening to loud offensive music, or sitting really, really still. And if the inside wasn't so bright with lights in the front room that the windows were glowing.

"Heeeeeeeeeeeeeeey, Purple!" a tall guy with floppy brown hair stumbled over to the two of them.

'Yes, I do believe she's done this before.' Amber mentally noted.

"Hi, Jess." Violet responded to the obviously stoned tall guy who was throwing his arms around her neck for a very awkward hug. There was a huge grin plastered to her face as if she was having the best time ever, and her voice went light to match.

But her eyes...were different. They looked so...something. What, Amber could not figure out.

"You brought a friend!" Jess exclaimed as if this news was so exciting his head might pop off.
"Yeah, Jess, this is Amber." Violet laughed, looking over at Amber.

Amber's face stayed blank for just a second, and then adopted the same big grin as Violet, but she managed to get her eyes to match.

"You're both colors! That is so wicked! C'mon, everybody needs to know this, Purple!" Jess grabbed both of the girls wrist and pulled them into the party.

And with that Amber was thrown into the world of a wild muggle party. She met people with names like Fifi, Mad Dog, and Marigold. People from every walk of life sat around the same fire discussing the importance of hands.

Everybody seemed so different. With some people laughing the way Jess did, and others sitting so still and so quiet it was if they had been replaced with statues.

But there was something that made all the people look so much alike, but Amber just couldn't figure it out...

"Holy crap! I looooooove muggles!" Amber whispered into Violet's ear a few hours into the party. "I was in that room on the right and it smells SO good, so they gave me the stuff that smells SO good and now I feel SO good and I really want some pumpkin juice. No! Frozen pumpking juice! No! Frozen pumpkins!"
"You're stoned." Violet laughed at the girl.
"That's what the people in the good smelling room said! But I told them what I'm gonna tell you, I am not a rock."
"Y'know what, hon? It's late, so we're gonna go back to the school and get you some frozen pumpkins." Violet coaxeda very excited Amber. "Let's go say good bye to Jess, and go, okay?"
"Okay!"

Violet made her good byes brief since Amber kept getting distracted and trying accept a few things Violet knew she really didn't need to take.

The whole way back Amber stumbled, laughed, and stared at Violet, trying to figure out why everyone at the party looked so much alike.

It would have been good if Amber had stopped her giggling and stumbling when they made their way through the school. Then they might not have been heard by Snape as they made their way through the dungeons.
