Anna wasn't able to fall asleep, like many other nights, so she got on a pair of jeans, and her orange sweatshirt, and chose one of her favorite spots in the castle to go at a time like this, the Astronomy Tower. When she wasn't able to fall asleep, she would go here, or down to the lake.
Anna was careful not to wake anyone as she crept along the hallways of Magic Horizons. She finally reached the stairs of the Tower, and slowly walked up them, being careful not to trip. When she reached the top of the stairs, she opened the door quietly, and shut it behind her. Anna walked over to the edge of the tower, where there was a wall, and she leaned against it as she looked out at the scenery.
Although it was still very dark, she could see the lake, shimmering in the darkness and could almost feel the coolness of the water. The breeze was blowing softly and pushed the few strands of auburn hair that covered her blue-grey eyes. Anna closed her eyes and heard a few owls going into the Owlery for their nights rest, and then heard a few night crickets. When she opened her eyes, she was suprised to see the her own owl, Ningo, had come and sat right in front of her. She stroked his head softly and continued to watch the breeze blowing the grass on the front lawn of Magic Horizons, and Anna smiled.
Suddenly, she heard a noise behind her, which cause Ningo to fly off towards the Owlery. She abruptly turned around as she saw a mysterious shadowed outline of a person and she whispered, "Hello?" although she wasn't so sure she wanted to know who was there. Another breeze came in and made Anna shiver as she continued to wait and see who was there.

Larissa couldn't sleep tonight so she decided to pay a visit to the Astronomy Tower.She never been there before and tonight was a starry night,so she decided to take a look. She moved softly and carefully around the castle on her tiptoes,just like a cat while hunting.She was glad when she reached the stairs which led to the top of the tower.She climbed up carefully,opened the door quitely and closed it behind her. She saw a shadow leaning against the wall,but couldn't make out who or what it was. Suddenly the light breez lifted her heavy nightdress. The other person must have heared it coz it called out Hello.Now Larissa knew it was a girl there. She moved closer a bit and said: "Hello!"
OOC:Happy Birthday!

Anna realized that it was only another girl student, and sighed in relief. She didn't want to be getting a detention for being out of bed at this hour. Hello! Anna heard the girl say. "Hi! I'm glad that it was you, and not a teacher or something..." Anna admitted. "I'm Anna, of Gryffindor... who are you?" she asked the girl politely. Anna pulled at the strings on her sweatshirt and remembered that Ningo had flown off as she turned around to pet him again. Anna spun back around to face the girl that had come up the stairs and she smiled at her and brushed a few strands of auburn hair out of her blue- grey eyes. A slight breeze came in again and made Anna shiver again, although she was wearing warm clothes.
(ooc: Thanks!)

Morwen's feet seemed to fly as she ran up the cold, hard stairs. Glancing behind her, she made sure that no followers could catch up. No one could see this. Morwen's hand clutched the scrawled note even harder. It her other arm, a ruffled pidgeon cooed quietly. The landing of the tower was in sight. Just a few more steps.
Morwen gasped.
The silouette of two people appeared all too soon. Morwen slowed down but not in time. The two girls went flying backwards. One of them clutching her ribs. The pidgeon, startled, took flight without its message. And the message floated upon the unhurt girl's head.
Morwen lay face down. Thinking hard. Maybe they can't see her?

Anna nodded as the girl introduced herself as Larissa Waters from Slytherin. "Yeah, tonight is a great night..." Anna replied then she screamed as she fell backwards, when someone hit her. Ouch! For crying out loud, can't you see where you're going?! she heard Larissa say. Oh my Anna, are you OK? "Yeah, I'm fine..." she started, "Who are you?!" Anna demanded towards the girl that had just pushed the two of them over. "What's this?" Anna asked as she picked up a piece of paper.

"Looks like a letter to me."said Larissa.Then she turned to the girl who hit them and was still on the floor. "Hey sweety,you can't just spend the whole night there.Here,grab my hand!"she said as she held out her hand to help the girl up.

"Ack" Morwen moaned thankfully at the offered hand.
"sorry, I didn't mean to..." It then occured to Morwen that her letter was, in fact, in the hands of another.
Scared, the brown haired girl quickly made a move at the offending hand.
No one could see it...

A demon was slowy creeping up the stairs to the astronomy tower, sence he had been inrolled here as a student for sometime he new the place quite well. Lorry and him used to sit up were all the time and talk, but there aws no need to think of her now she had left and that was the end of it.
As he aproced the top of teh tower he could see there were people up here just as he hoped, they were three students out after hours and with no one around to help them they would be easly delt with. "Good evening ladys isnt it a little late for you to be out, you know something could happen to you out here and no one would know it." Said the Half demon with a slite hiss. His white hair flowed in the wind and there was a fire in his eyes that was very real he was ready to kill, ready to taste battle again, raedy for the struggle.
OOC dont worrie Ill play nice it is on school grounds after all.

Morwen swung round. Her illegal letter temporarily forgotten.
"...what?"
Running was the first thing on her mind. She threw herself at the new arrival and attempted a quick escape.
Two steps down, she remembered her letter. She paused and looked back.

The demon laughed as he placed himself infront of the door. "Im sorry dear but this exit is closed it seems the only way out now is to jump off the tower." The he paused for a minute "Why do you fear death, do you fear what you do not understand, what you cannot see what you cannot comprehend." Stoping to thing for a minuet he then added "You know I used to fear death, then I began to embrace it, now I enforce it."
With this there was a blinding flash of blue light and a light blue almsot transpartent sword appeared in his hand. "Embrase it my dear, embase the blade, the cut, the blood, it will all be over soon." He said with a smirk. "Now which one of you to kill first, any sugestions and remember you can always try jumping."

Larissa stood there startled by the sudden appearance of the demon and then the sword. She forgot about the letter,she could only see Morwen and the sword. Now which one of you to kill first, any sugestions and remember you can always try jumping.Larissa heared him say.Then she realised she had her wand with her - as always. "Accio Sword!" she shouted pointing her wand at the demon. Then she quickly cast another spell "Stupor!" it hit the demon right in the chest.

Just as all the commotion started Jordan came up the astronomy stairs to find a demon. Jordan encountered a demon and still has scars from the attack. Jordan waited around the corner charging a flipendo spell. He turned the corner and shot the flipendo spell and hit the demon in the back.

Larissa saw that another spell hit the attacking demon.She turned around and saw a boy from her own house.She saw him before but didn't know his name. "Thank you!" she shouted to the boy. Then she decided it's about time to use the opportunity and escape fromthe tower. "Everybody run for the door!" OOC:Thanks Jordan,it's really nice of you.
