~*~valentines day~*~

[~ Ella]

*She closes her eyes and thinks back to the times she was at Durmstrang.*

[Zack]

*smiles at her and kisses back* you too *grins and takes her hand in his*

[?]

pfft ::)

[.:isis:.]

*smiles*

[~ Ella]

*She stands and frowns, obviously annoyed at herself. She makes her way to the forbidden forest, her hair lashing around in the wind.*

[Zack]

*smiles back at her, then looks back at the book, flipping through the pages**finds the name of the potion and reads aloud what is readable, which most is not:

  The Aldrante` potion has been known to cause instant death at the touch, 10,000 deaths have been reported in the last one hundred years. Aldrante` was named illegal to be made ten years ago, and is enforced greatly, though ministry officials have easily found the culprits as they were mostly all dead---........have been counted as armed criminals.

I can`t read any more. *shrugs then falls quiet, rereading the passage over and over agian*

[~ Ella]

*She sits on a high tree branch and leans agains't the tree, she closes her eyes, the wind is unusually violent so she retreats from the branch and makes her way into a shallow ditch behind a fallen tree. She lays here for some time, watching the stars until the sky becomes cloudy.*

[.:isis:.]

*cringes at the bloody details. looks at a bloodstain on the book and widens eyes. says a bit sarcastically:* lovely. *sighs* i'm sorry, but i don't really seem to understand.... *continues to eye the bloodstains* why is this so important?

[Zack]

*looks over at her and gives her a look saying:I never did tell you did I?* My older brother....he got into the wrong crowd.....*shakes head and looks back at the book in wonder, not knowing if had really found the right one or not*

[.:isis:.]

o.... *frowns* did he use this potion on somebody?

[Zack]

well- sort of- *falls silent, listening**hears loud, angry voices and eyes widen, recognising them* nuts..*looks around and finds the closet**stands and pulls Isis into the closet with him, closing the door quietly, but qickly, the latch closing as the portriat swings open**leans aginst the door, listening, his eyes begging her to be silent*

1st voice: You find him?

2nd:nope, you?

1st:nope, c`mon, we gotta get out of here before an adult sees us. you said if we see him, snatch him, if not get out of there. so lets GO!

[.:isis:.]

*doesn't really feel scared, but more curious as to what's going on. carefully listens to their conversation, then puts a hand to mouth, realizing who they're after. then points to Zack and mouths* you?

[Zack]

*nods, and shivers a bit as the first voice speaks, his voice similar to his own, though deeper**doesn`t mean to, but accidently thumps hand aginst the closet door**eyes widen as the footsteps stop, then start towards the closet door**steps sideways and shields her with his body, cursing when can`t find wand in pocket and as the door opens**stands tall, pushing Isis protectively aginst the wall, and looks up into his brothers familiar eyes*

him: long time no see little brother. too long in fact. *he reaches out his arms and grabs him around the neck and in a body hold**puts up a fight and gets loose, backing up agian*

[.:isis:.]

*steps out from the closet and then points at his brother* YOU! uh.... knock it off! *thinks to self: o.... brilliant! and i'm sure he'll listen to me!* yea! just, uh, stop it or.... or you'll regret it.... *stands there and scuffles feet from side to side a bit, thinking of how dumb that must sound*

[Zack]

*the guy and his brother freeze, then jump, turning**they see her*

*watches them and gives her a look, scared for her safety**the other guy dissapears, reappearing begind her and grabs her arms**starts to rush feircely at him, but is caught in a headlock from his brother**fights, punching him whenever can, but is hit over the head**falls to knees and is also grabbed by the arms**the for dissapear, reappearing in a dark room, green tints coming from the black walls**the two guys throw them to the floor and take her wand, then leave the room, locking the door behind them**opens eyes and catches a glimpse of her on the floor beside him* you ok? *is actually quite glad she can`t see him in the dark, blood dribbling down his mouth and face*
