Hogwarts: Next Generation

Tomorrow sighed, and went back to her book.

Twilight sensed her sister calling her and snuck out of Gryffindor tower.

Ashton came out from his hiding place.
"What was all that about?" he asked Tomorrow.

"She's wondering about her mother...I think she know something we do not..." sighed Tomorrow, "but we need to know more...to, you know...think about it."

"Mum doesn't like Raven." Ashton whispered, "She never said why .... "

Twilight met her sister at the room of requirement, and the two just glared at each other.

"I need to know why...my mum said she never got to know Raven..." said Tomorrow vaguely.

"Mine has a certain amount of respect for her but doesn't like her." Ashton remembered, "Like ... I think she saved mum's bestie one time, I dunno I didn't ask."

"Can we...write to your mum?" Tomorrow asked.

"She can barely read." Ashton said grinning, "Uhm, we should .... meet up with her maybe. Like, we could go by floo powder back to my house, ask her about Raven and then come back?"

"Yes...but isn't the floo network still monitered?" Tomorrow asked.

"I can get around THAT Tom, gimme some credit for Holly's sake." Ashton said, rolling his eyes.

Tomorrow tutted.
"How Ash...how do we get around the ministry?"

Twilight started to tremble under Eclispe's glare, because it was actually a form of battle. Breaking into each other's minds...

"Twilight is...well...not as I expected her to be..." said Tomorrow quietly.

Ashton sighed.
"Tell you what, you go make sure Twilight's okay, and I'll catch up when I've spoken to mum, ok?"

"Ok..." said Tomorrow, walking out of the the dorm, "just...don't do anything...Ashton like."

"I'm afraid I cannot make that kind of promise." Ashton said, a sly look about him as he winked and strode off.

Winter followed Tomorrow, "Tomorrow?" she asked, "Do you know where all our trunks went? I need to write my m um a letter," she said, worriedly.

"In the dorm," said Tomorrow absently, hurrying down into the common room.

"You can see my trunk anyday." Ashton said smiling at Winter, but then he remembered he was supposed to be speaking with his mother, and ran away.

Twilight yielded first, collapsing to her knees with a gasp.
"Weak." Eclipse snarled.

Tomorrow snuck out of the common room, and began to decend the stairs.

Eclipse stood over Twilight, battering her mind as the Gryffindor lay curled on the ground, her head clasped in her hands.

Philospher walked into the room, winking at Aston, the town Whore.
