Query's Maze

I follow Crest. Though I'd hate to go in there again, I'm not one to turn my back on them...

As I go to open the door, I hear a sound approaching us and I hold my hand up to make everyone stop.

Jim peers over his shoulder, looking amused. He winks at her before looking towards the front again.

Chase draws his wand, waiting for Crest's signal.

OOC: Omg, you guys. I just thought. Imagine if it was all just a misunderstanding and Ace was really back at Hogwarts? Chase brought a freaking rescue party, and Query's like "She's not here. You really are a fail."

I'll shut up now.

ROFLMAO!!! THAT IS HILARIOUS!!!

Sorry guys i gtg bye!

Sam: My heart races with fear.

Azula: I laugh, "Didn't think I'd see you back here, Strayer... Especially not your weakling of a girlfriend..."

See you Crouch!

I gtg too, I need to be up early tomorrow See you guys.

I look at Azula with cold calculating eyes. Judging by her being here, she clearly is after Query too. Revenge is most probable motive.

"expecto patronis." An armadillo of pure light erupts from my wand, powered by my thoughts of Sam.

"Follow it." I instruct the group as I face Azula.

Sam: I stay back with Crest, looking at Azula. I've face her before... We can do it again...

Azula: I laugh, "Oh, Strayer... Staying back with me, are you? How sweet..."

Her words might as well have been unsaid by the emptiness that returned to her.

"Well, if you have nothing to say..." I shoot some fire at him.

Her pattern of attack became more and more apparent each time we fought. At this point, it was almost second nature using aquamenti to extinguish the flames as they came.

I smirk, taking out my wand. As the flames extinguish with the water from his wand, I jump behind him, shooting a curse at him.

Redirecting the waves of water leaving my wand to behind me to hopefully buy some time, I jump to the side to avoid it sending back a stunning spell as a counter attack.

Since his girlfriend is close by me, I take her and throw her in front of me, not bothering to be gentle, and she gets hit by the stunning spell.

"SAM!" I know I did no real damage to her, but still the mere fact she used Sam as a shield is enough to enraged me as I press on my curses.

I grin, knowing I have just got him angry. ( Azula... You should NOT be happy about that... ) I dodge most of his curses, sending some of my own plus some fire balls.

With no regard fro defense at all, I rush forward, getting hit by several of her curses but reach her on my knees panting as I point my wand under her chin, "Flippendo."

... What does "flippendo" do? -face turns red with embarrassment-

OOC Thanks!

IC I fly back, grunting as I land, feeling intense pain in some parts in my body. I think I even heard some bones crack...

Sam: I'm laying on the ground, stiff as a board, waiting for the spell to wear off. It's okay... I just didn't see it coming... But who are you kidding? It's almost like a whole separate person inside of me... Putting me down... Making sure I feel depressed and alone...

I run over to Sam, "Finite incantatem.."

I sigh with relief when I can move again, and a guilt-ridden expression forms on my face, "I'm sorry... I keep letting her do that to me..."

"She's a death eater, Sam, she'd do that to anyone." I hold out my hand to help her up.

"I know that..." I take his hand gratefully, "... I'm just... I'm never ready to defend myself... I'm sorry..."
