Chalmes shrugged. He'd heard from school all of the condolences for his missing brother. None really knew what Chalmes himself suspected, though. Despite appearances to the contrary, he wasn't as dumb as he looked. Something was up, and both the disappearance of his brother and his mother's death were connected. However, it made Chalmes worry that Chris might be involved in vampires somehow. Besides, they were twins. Wouldn't he be able to tell of his twin was some kind of dead bloodsucker or something? "Hey, it's okay, mate. It's just, kinda difficult to talk about." He nodded toward Andi. "Well, it's as good a place as any to go, so then let's get there." He followed Andi, and when she broke into a run, he grinned and ran after her.
Don't think I'm weak, that would be your first mistake...

𝕬thena 𝕱ae
𝕾inger and 𝕾ongwriter,
Coyly, Diane nearly cringed at the insistence that she need not lift a finger, nor pay a dime. Ordinarily, Diane was a wild bout of fire, a storm that would never cease. As much as she wanted to tsk her tongue and wag her finger at him, tease him, and tell him that she’d never need anyone to provide for her, she simply smiled. ”You’re so sweet,” Diane smiled. After all, this was her first impression on him, she didn’t want to spoil things by being so rude.
”As it is, it’s been ages since I’ve last been down Diagon Alley, where do you recommend we eat?” She grinned up at him, loosely wrapping her fingers around the crook of his elbow as she walked alongside him. Just then, a curious little smirk wove on her red lips.
”An auror, hmm? So dangerous,” she hinted at with a teasing smile. ”What sorts of insanity do you deal with here, anyway?”

"Knowledge is Power"
"The best defense is a good offense"
Arnold Cloud
Occupation: Auror
Thoughts: This is amazing
Desires: Her
"Why thank you, and I guess I would say the Leaky Cauldron. I believe it is the only one that is within close distance. I'm honestly not sure if there are more. I haven't been in Diagon Alley in quite the time as well. I do however know the way so follow me," he said, smiling at her, almost lost at words because he was gracing the presence of a star. This was one of the best days he's had in awhile so far. He was composed, quite composed; that is, until he felt a hand touch his arm. He had not known what to do, but his gut feeling said to stay calm and just wish she keep her hand there, but part of him wanted to just put her in his arms and keep her there. He didn't know why he had this strong, compelling feeling, but it was...invigorating. But he kept composed, fighting those urges.
"Yes, an Auror. It is...quite dangerous. One really has to be on their toes or the worst would come of them. Fortunately, I have been quite skillful in my dueling as of late; so I have not met the hardest of matches yet. But I fear with the uprisings of evil followers and whatnot, I will soon meet that challenge. But other than that, we see a lot of criminals, I've found a few of the evil followers, which have been sent to Azkaban. But that's about it right now. Nothing really right now," he said, skipping over the whole kidnapping scene, mostly because he was in America, working with their wizard authority to apprehend a British fugitive wizard, along with his dad sorting out a clause in the Wizard law office that allowed Arnold to go. But he would leave that out for now.

    Ah, summer. A time of relaxation and freedom for one to do whatever they wished. Chance and Cecille, hand in hand, set foot into the streets of Diagon Alley. In the boy's pocket was a small amount of money in the form of coins that jiggled and jangled with every step he took. The thirteen year old Ravenclaw was, in one way or another, nervous about the upcoming year. His precious sister would be attending Hogwarts with him, and he feared the worst. What if she was picked on, teased, excluded from group activities? And, god, her classes. Flying? No way. It had been specified in the girl's letter from the school that she would be taking special classes due to her "condition". Cecille, who had not read the letter herself, accepted the fact that she would not be in regular classes with other students. Her only desire was to learn. But these were thoughts for another day. Right now, the pair just wanted to enjoy their summer vacation. "Don't move, Sis. I'm gonna count out how much money we have. Then we can get your supplies, or whatever we can get, I suppose." Chance said, reaching in his pocket and removing the coins. As he began counting, Cecille got bored. Cane in hand, she set out on her own down the street, tapping the pole on the ground to avoid running into anything too terribly hard. Unfortunately, she had just as much luck as her brother did, and found herself crashing into something, or someone. A loud "Oww!" escaped the girl, and she dropped her cane, her only means of direction. Dull eyes stared at nothing as she waved her hands in front of her, as if in surrender. "Oh my! I-I'm so sorry. I didn't mean to run into, uhh... Are you a person or a lamppost?" Though to some it may seem like a joke, but she was completely serious in her question. And she expected a completely serious answer, whether it be words from a person, or silence from a lamppost.  |

Cecille stared blindly, allowing the person to put her cane back in her hand. She gripped it tightly, as if it was a life source. And to her, it pretty much was. She was very glad to hear that it was a person and not a lamppost that she had ran into. It was always good to talk to a live human, instead of an inanimate object. "Sorry again, umm, Nicko. M-My name is Cecille." she replied. Not to her knowledge, she was looking off in the completely opposite direction of the boy. Not like she could tell, anyways. Meanwhile, a little ways down the street, Chance had finished counting his coins. Truthfully, there was not much there. Just enough to get his sister's and his supplies, but it was barely enough for them to get by. "Okay, Sis. Let's start-" He stopped, turning to where his sister had been just a moment ago. Where had she gone? Did someone snatch her up? Kidnappers! That's what it was! His baby sister had been kidnapped! "Cecille? Cecille, where are you? Can you hear me? Sis?" Frantic, the highly protective older brother began searching for the tiny girl. If he lost her here, Mother would murder him! |

A hand on her face confused Cecille, and when it turned her head in another direction, she figured that she was looking away from the boy the whole time. How embarrassing! He complimented her name, calling it pretty, and a faint tinge of pink lit up on her pale skin. "Oh... Thank you. I like my name... and yours too. I've never met a Nicko before." she said, hoping not to seem a fool. A sound hit her ear, a voice calling out in a panicked tone. It was Chance. Jeez, why did he worry so much? She couldn't even wander down the street without him having a heart attack. "Yeah... That's Chance. He's two years older than me, and he worries a lot. It's okay though, I guess. It just means that he cares is all." Cecille gripped Nicko's hand when he took hers, and allowed him to lead her down the street. "Yes, we are. I'm going to Hogwarts after this summer. Are you here for the same?" A friend in a new place would greatly be appreciated. It meant she would not be alone. Or, not be alone whenever her brother wasn't around. Chance looked around, scanning the area for his sister. When he saw her coming towards him, he sighed in relief. Then he took note of the entire situation: she was holding a boy's hand. He could have growled like an angry wolf. Stalking over to them, he glared at the boy. "Who are you and why are you touching my sister." It was said more as a serious statement rather than a question. Cecille reacted quickly. "It's fine, Chance. I dropped my cane and he picked it up for me. And he helped me back over here to you, so-" She was cut off as Chance began to rant. "Peidiwch â rhedeg oddi ar gan eich hun, Cecille! Mae'n rhy beryglus i chi! Fe allech chi wedi cael ei herwgipio neu ceisiedig brifo neu rywbeth!" His anger was clear in his voice, even if the words he spoke were not English. Cecille blinked, and stared at what she figured was her brother's face. "Doeddwn i ddim yn gael herwgipiwyd a doeddwn i ddim gael eu hanafu. Rwy'n dod o hyd Nicko, a bu'n cadw fi'n ddiogel. Rwy'n iawn, Chance. Yr wyf yn addo." The girl's voice was completely opposite her brother's, calm and soothing instead of sharp and annoyed. Chance glared at his sister, but he lost it. His icy glare disappeared, and a softness formed in his eyes. He reached out and put his hand on Cecille's head, petting her snowy hair. "Yn anffodus, Sis. Fi jyst phoeni amdanoch chi." Cecille smiled, and squeezed Nicko's hand. Chance sighed, and looked back to the boy. "I'm sorry. Let's start over. I'm Chance, Cecille's brother. And you are?" He still didn't like that fact that this boy, whoever he was, was holding his sister's hand, but he would allow it. For now, anyways. Translations:
"Don't run off by yourself, Cecille! It's too dangerous for you! You could have been kidnapped or gotten hurt or something!"
"I didn't get kidnapped and I didn't get hurt. I found Nicko and he kept me safe. I'm okay, Chance. I promise."
"Sorry, Sis. I just worry about you." |

Chance eyed the boy suspiciously, then took his hand and shook it. What kind of person just helps out a person they've never even met before? Well... a good person, he supposed. He wouldn't admit it, but this boy had earned his respect. "Hmm. Well, thanks for helping out my sister, I guess..." he muttered, rubbing the back of his head. He had overreacted, and he knew it. Cecille, hearing her brother's words, smiled. "Nicko. You never answered my question. Are you going to Hogwarts this year too? Or do you already go there?" she asked. Chance looked from his sister to the boy. If he was going to attend the school at the same time as his sister, then maybe, just maybe, he could watch out for her when he was unable to. {ooc: dat short post. ;3;} |

His assumption was correct. Nicko was in fact an incoming first year, just like Cecille. Chance nodded to himself. As Nicko nodded and reddened, Chance watched him. He must have forgotten about Cecille's condition, he figured. What an odd thing to forget. It was like forgetting which hand you wrote with, or forgetting to put shoes on in the morning. No matter. Cecille, on the other hand, was oblivious to all of this. "Yay! You'll be my friend, right? Right, Nicko?" The girl grinned, excited for an opportunity to gain a friend. Chance answered the boy's question while his sister asked her own. "Yes, we are." he said, reaching into his pocket and pulling out the small pile of various coins his mother had given to him that morning. It wasn't much, but it was just enough to purchase Cecille's supplies. Chance? Well, he could manage without new things for school. |

Cecille grinned, happier than ever before, and managed to hug her new friend. And without letting go of his hand too. The girl had skill in giving hugs. "Yay! We'll be best friends!" she exclaimed. The excitement on her face could clearly be seen. Chance also cracked a small smile. He was glad that his sister had found a friend, even if it was with... a boy. He was called "sir" and his smile faded, brown eyes blinking in confusion. Sir? He was no sir. To one, a prince, but to everyone else, just an odd boy. "Uhhh... Sure, I suppose. What do you think, Sis?" He turned to his sister, who nodded her head vigorously. "Of course he can come with us." she replied. Chance looked back to Nicko. "Well then, it's settled. We'll all go together. Where to first?" They had many places to go. The bookstore, the clothing shop, everywhere. Hopefully, if they got their shopping done early, they would have the time to just bum around the Alley afterwards. But that all depended on how fast the three of them could shop. |
