[BK228]

Jackson: Ready.

OOC: I have a few things I need to do. So, I'll probably be gone for 45 minutes or an hour.

Jackson: Ready.

OOC: I have a few things I need to do. So, I'll probably be gone for 45 minutes or an hour.

OOC: That's okay. Got some things myself.

Crystal: Okay. *leaves the room* *checks out* *leaves the inn* Okay, just follow me. *leads him to her aunt's house* *checks over her shoulder every few minutes to keep an eye out for Ministry or DE* *stops running on the corner of her aunt's street* *walks to her aunt's house* *standing on the stoop when she hears familiar voices* *uses colorful language under her breath uncontrollably for several seconds* *gets control* *turns and smile apologetically at Jackson* Sorry. Lost control of myself.

 

[BK228]

OOC: I'm back!!!

Jackson: *Taken back by Crystal* Are you sure you want to do this Crys? I know of other places we can stay. It is fully your choice.

 

[Fairywings]

OOC: I'm back!!!

Jackson: *Taken back by Crystal* Are you sure you want to do this Crys? I know of other places we can stay. It is fully your choice.

OOC: Just when I got back!

Crystal: No, we're here, we stay. It's just that my parents are here. Of all the days they had to come to London, why did they have to come today? And to think I was in a good mood until now. Oh well, I have a door key. Maybe I can get us inside and we can slip past. *pulls the key out of her pocket and opens the door* *steps inside*

Jackson: *Pulls her back out quickly* We aren't doing this! It is upsetting you! Just the sound of their voices. I'm not letting you do this to yourself.

OOC: Lucky timing then

 

[Fairywings]

Jackson: *Pulls her back out quickly* We aren't doing this! It is upsetting you! Just the sound of their voices. I'm not letting you do this to yourself.

OOC: Lucky timing then

Crystal: *puts on a brave face* No, let's just go in. They may be back in the kitchen and we won't see them at all. Even if we do, they won't stay for long once I'm there. They gave up on trying to win mre back long ago. *steps in* Uncle Roman's and Aunt Silvia's house is huge! I hope you like it. I haven't been here in ages, it's niice to return. *stops short when she sees Uncle Roman, Aunt Silvia, and her parents standing in the doorway into the living room*

Aunt Silvia: *turns towards her* Crystal, darling. This is a pleasant surprise.

Uncle Roman: *smiles* You've gotten taller Crys.

Mr. Gray: Crystal. Why aren't you in school? I think you need to go back to Hogwarts.

Mrs. Gray: Surely you should be studying Crystal. It's not like you to abandon your education. Did something happen?

Crystal: *smiles at her aunt and uncle* *balls her hands into fists* I don't really think that's any of your business. And this may surprise you, but I still don't care what you think. If you honestly think I'm abandoning my education, then you don't know me nearly as well as you pretend to.

Aunt Silvia: *attempting to salvage the situation* Er, would you like to join us Crystal? I just made cookies.

Crystal: *glares at her parents* I'll join you, but not when they're around.

Mr. Gray: How dare you speak to your mother an I like that? We are your parents!

Crystal: Maybe by blood, but you will never have any hold, any authority over me, and I do NOT consider you members of my family! You lost that privalege long ago. I do not love you. I disregard your "rules", your "punishments". All I hear is threats.

Mr. Gray: Is that so? Then you are not welcome under my roof, that's for sure!

Mrs. Gray: Theodore!

Crystal: I don't care! I hate you!

Mr. Gray: You are no longer part of this family! I'm sorry sister. Thank you for inviting us, we had a great time up until now. I'll be sending you the girl's things.

Aunt Silvia: Theodore, you can't just go!

Uncle Roman: Now see here, listen-

Mr. Gray: Oh yes I can! Come, Helena! *storms out of the house*

Mrs. Gray: *sighs* I'll try to talk to him. But I don't think he'll change his mind.

Aunt Silvia: *sighs* You can always try.

Mrs. Gray: Good bye, Silvia, Roman. *leaves*

Aunt Silvia: Good bye Helena. *watches the door close* *sighs* That could've went better.

Crystal: Sorry.

Aunt Silvia: No no, you couldn't have known they were here. And Theodore's short temper made him really rude.

Uncle Roman: It really is nice to see you.

Aunt Silvia: Yes, it is, You're welcome here for as long as you need, your friend there too.

Crystal: Thank you Uncle Roman, thank you Aunt Silvia. We'll be back down for cookies and introductions in a moment. Just going to get us set up. Come on Jackson. *starts heading up the stairs* Sorry you had to witness that Jackson, me and my...........former parents, there's been bad blood between us for years. Maybe finally I can leave it all behind. *gives him a small smile*

 

[BK228]

Jackson: That was intense. It seems like it is their fault though, not your's. I wouldn't dread on it too much. So, where are we bunking?

Jackson: That was intense. It seems like it is their fault though, not your's. I wouldn't dread on it too much. So, where are we bunking?

Crystal: *sighs* I know. That's how it always is. You can see why I hate talking about then now. It's stressful. But my Aunt and Uncle are great people, so I'll probably end up living here with them. *gets off on the second floor* My aunt and uncle's room, my room when I'm staying here, the library, and the guest room where you'll be staying is on this floor. *goes to the second door on the left, opens it* *steps inside* This is the guest room. I'll be directly across the hall. *points at the second door on the left* Whatever you do, don't go up to the third floor and you'll be okay. *walks over to her room* *sets her bag down*

 

[BK228]

Jackson: *Walks in and unpacks a few things.* What have I gotten myself into!? *Gets frustrated and accidently punches a small hole in the wall* Bloody hell!

 

[Fairywings]

Jackson: *Walks in and unpacks a few things.* What have I gotten myself into!? *Gets frustrated and accidently punches a small hole in the wall* Bloody hell!

Crystal: *calms down and destresses for a few moments*Okay. Okay. I'm all right now. *hears Jackson* *walks over* What going on? *sees the wall* Reparo! *wall fixes itself* *half teasingly* Yes, I know that my family is insane and you're probably mad at me and you don't even know why Dumbledore asked us to stay in London, and I know for sure that you wanted to punch my former father, because I certainly did, but that's no excuse to put a hole in the wall! *seriously, in a quieter voice* You know, I really am sorry. You shouldn't had to have witness that argument. And I wish I knew what Dumbledore wanted us to do, but I have no idea.

 

[BK228]

Jackson: I'm not mad at you Crystal. *Apparates and leaves her*

 

[Fairywings]

Jackson: I'm not mad at you Crystal. *Apparates and leaves her*

Crystal: ..........................I guess I'll see you later then. *leaves the room and closes the door quietly* *whispers* Why does life have to be so hard? *goes into the room beside it* *takes a book off of one of the shelves*

 

[BK228]

Jackson: *Apparates back into the room Crystal is in with a bouquet of roses* Hopefully you like roses *hands them to her*

 

[Fairywings]

Jackson: *Apparates back into the room Crystal is in with a bouquet of roses* Hopefully you like roses *hands them to her*

Crystal: *looks up* *smiles* I do in fact like roses. *smells them* Thanks Jackson.

 

[BK228]

Crystal: *looks up* *smiles* I do in fact like roses. *smells them* Thanks Jackson.

Jackson: Just felt like you needed something to make you happy after your father. And also as a thank you for allowing me to stay here.

 

[Fairywings]

Jackson: Just felt like you needed something to make you happy after your father. And also as a thank you for allowing me to stay here.

Crystal: Yes, I appreciate it. They're my favorite, besides lilies. *finds a vase* Aqua *puts water inside the vase* *puts roses in the vase* Come on, my aunt's cookies are the best! *leaves the room and starts heading down the stairs*

 

[BK228]

Jackson: *Follows her down* If you say so

 

[Fairywings]

Jackson: *Follows her down* If you say so

Crystal: *reaches the bottom of the stairs* *motions for Jackson to follow* *leads him through the living room into the kitchen* Hey Aunt Silvia!

Aunt Silvia: *smiles* Hello dear. *teasingly* Adults might not have any hold over you, but cookies on the other hand, that's a different story altogether.

Crystal: *grins* Well, yours are the best. This is my friend Jackson.

Aunt Silvia: *smiles* Hello! I'm Silvia Ashland, but you can just call me Silvia. Uncle Roman went back to his study. *puts a couple cookies each on two plates and puts them down on the table in ftont of them** Here guys, eat up. You're still too skinny Crystal, don't tell me you've been skipping meals again. *to Jackson* I'm sorry you had to see that Jackson. I don't think anyone expected Theodore to act like that. My brother always had a bad temper. If you're good friends with Crystal, then you probably know now where she gets her own temper from.

Crystal: I am nothing like him.

Aunt Silvia: *hugs her* *gravely* I dare say you aren't. And that's a good thing. *lets go* *raises an eyebrow* So, friends? I thought we weren't going to have those this year.

Crystal: *grins sheepishly* Yeah, well, that was the original plan, but it didn't quite work out that way. Besides, him and my two other friends saved my life too many times.

Jackson: These are delicious Mrs. Ashland.
I wanted to say thank you for allowing me into your home. I am really truly lucky to have Crystal as a friend, and her temper isn't too bad *smiles*

Aunt Silvia: Thank you dear. You're very welcome, you and Crystal can stay for as long as you need. I don't know why you're here, and by Crystal's expression, I've chosen not to ask you about it. But if you need help, don't be afraid to ask for it. Roman knows all about security and Defense against the Dark Arts, so you'll be perfectly safe here. Although, I'm afraid it's not been quite right in the family for some time now, not since little Fiona up and disappeared some years ago..........So Crystal, how's school?

Crystal: It's absolutely horrid, Especially DADA. *eats her cookie*
