Gathering [Students & Staff - Plot]

[Horace Slughorn]

Horace walked into the Great Hall. The students tables were very still, there was not even a sound, but it would all change now. Horace walked to the top of the hall and surveyed it through his hazel eyes. Taking out his wand he flick it in the air and the tables all doubled into each other until they were all neatly put at the side of the hall. He had used Wordless Magic.

Horace then walked to the front doors of the hall, and opened them. "God help us" He said in a hush voice. Then putting the wand to his neck he did more Wordless Magic and made his voice boom around the school, so he could reach everyone he needed to. "ALL STUDENTS AND STAFF TO THE GREAT HALL AT ONCE" Then his voice was repeated over again, but this was part of the spell. Also a small blaring was ringing, to get the peoples attention, it was like something out of a movie.

[OOC: This is for the plot. All pupils and staff must gather in the great hall for an announcement to be made]

[akito]

Great. An empty hall.

Garbed in black, a menacing, dark aura about it, a beast person slipped in. It wasn't early in the morning... It was daytime. The sun was in the air. High in the air, of course. Not low. Not morning or evening. The figure was okay with that. He didn't mind the light. It sometimes hurt his eyes. But that was always unintentionally...

Akito frowned. He glared at the tall, annoying, loud man as he slunk through the double doors to hide himself in a shadowed corner. A little piece of peace all for himself. Shadows were him. Black. Just like Akito. Akito was all black. Even he wore black. To match his black hair. And almost black eyes. His shirt wasn't really a shirt. More like a very comfy jacket. Tailored (black) just for him. Like his pants. Also tailored (black) for Akito and only Akito. But who wouldn't want it?

Everyone wanted to be like Akito, didn't they?

For no one could be without precious little Akito. She was far too dear to anyone. Now normally, Kureno was with her. But the dumb little boy couldn't just go and show his face in public. Well, not that he hadn't. Akito had been extremely vexed the past few days because of it. Kureno was not supposed to interact with the Outsiders. They would stain his mind with ideas... Wicked, nasty ideas. So Akito forbade him to come with her. He'd only create a distraction and be thrown out.

Akito couldn't stand the thought of being along in the terrible Outsider school.

How had he gotten to the corner so quickly? Why was he curled up in a ball, clutching his always in agony head? Black hair rippled out between thin and pale fingers, long fingernails digging into scalp. He wanted to hurt himself. But why? There was already so much pain that he would probably die if there was any more...

He would just have to wait for the stupid, loud man's announcement.
