I opened the door, to reveal Xander Alex Smith, wearing a excited smile on his face. "What are you holding?" she asked, looking at the muggle toy sword Xander was carrying. "It's Halloween!" he answered with an obviously tone. "So? I'm not going to be a sparkling fairy princess that shoots glitter out of her wand." Scarlet joked, holding her wand wobbly. "Well, then let's go! The feast is about to start." Xander exclaimed, pulling her hand, and dragged her to the Great Hall, where at least every inch of the huge room was decorated with Halloween decorations.

"Woah..."

>THIRD PERSON< (sorry if I switch so much of the character's persperctives too quickly...)

"Woah, indeed. Now let's sit next to them!" Xander exclaimed, now making Scarlet have the most difficulty of walking properly. "Xander-" she shouted, dodging a couple who were wearing vampire outfits. "Alex-"

"Smith-"

"Slow-"

"Down-"

"Now!!!!"

They both reached the table where Hazel, Lyanna, Professor Granger or Hermione rather, Arabella & Jackson, were sitting, having a light conversation somewhere about what will happen if a vampire bit a werewolf, and the exact werewolf bit a zombie, and the exact zombie bit a normal wizard. "Hey Scarlet!" all of them greeted her. Hermione pulled her next to her, giggling. "So...?"
"Mmm?" Scarlet muffled, yawning. "How are you? We barely see each other!" Hermione said impatiently, with a little bit of laugh in her voice. It was true. Ever since Scarlet was being hunted down, security has been upgrading a lot faster. "I'm alright! You? I heard you can rarely teach anymore!"

"I'm alright. Want to join us to Hogsmead later?" she replied. Scarlet shook her head with a smile, and grabbed a handful of candy corn. "Speaking of teaching, have you done our homework from Transfigurations yet?! It's going to be passed the day after tomorrow!" Xander exclaimed, that with so much anger, he stabbed his knife straight into the chunk of meat that was placed atop of his plate, now with a huge hole on it. "Oh calm down, you idiot!" Lyanna yelled at her bestfriend. "Guys, stop fighting" Scarlet begged, ripping the two apart from each other. "She started it!" Xander said pointing his index finger to Lyanna like a child, blaming. "Oh stop it, the both of you. Or else." Scarlet said threatningly. "Or else what?" both said in unision. "I have the power to persuade Snape with 5 months of detention."

Her words instantly shut them both up, and Xander peered over Scarlet to look over the teacher's table. "So where's Snape?" he asked curiously. "At a party. Alongside Professor Felixa and Jones."

"Hey, have you heard? Defence Against The Dark Arts will be ending next year!"

"What?"

"Yeah. They said the subject is as good as jinx, and there us no other way than to remove it. And the bad part is, Professor Jones is finally softening up." Lyanna said, rolling her eyes. "Jones? Softening up?" Scarlet asked, leaving her food to cold. Something was strange with Professor Jones. She seemed to become more absent than usual that you can rarely see her passing by the corridors, shouting & yelling at Peeves who would gratefully drop a bucket of ice cold water onto her head. "Hey guys" Ginny Weasley said, trying to get away from the crowd. "Hi" Scarlet greeted happily. Scarlet looked towards the crowd, and tilted her head curiously. "What's up?" Arabella asked, tapping her shoulder and looking at the direction she was spying.
