Big Ben and muggles((Alyson))

[Fiona O'Reilly S5]

Fiona held back her thoughts on Alyson and her family. She still didn't know Alyson that well and she didn't want to say anything whether or not Alyson liked it. The O'Reillys' were known for their love of spilling muggle blood and of course her grandparents on her mothers side were still in Azkaban for murdering muggles. Fiona both loved and hated her grandparents. On most occasions Fiona tried to forget about what her grandparents had done. She wasn't entirely sure what to think about it.

Fiona followed Alyson out of the car. Alyson was talking about choosing lip gloss. Fiona had never worn lip gloss or any form of make-up. Her complexion and skin didn't need it. She was excited to get some new clothes, even if they were muggle outfits. At least she wouldn't get made fun of by ugly old muggle women. Fiona smiled at the insult of the woman that ran through her head. "So where should we start? I think it would be best if I could get clothes, that way I don't have to wear this around all night," Fiona said pointedly.

[pug]

" I agree." Alyson said showing her night pass to the guard. "So lets start with JCpennys and then to old navy." She said. The rode the esclators to the second floor and entered the store. There were rows of teen clothes. Alyson toke Fiona's hand and toke her to the jeans. " First you need jeans pick a pair.'' Alyson said pointing to the rows. She picked her self out a pair of baby blue ones.

She watched Fiona pick out her pair.

[Fiona O'Reilly S5]

Fiona looked at the huge mall. There were numerous shops and vendors set up throughout the place. Alyson said something about JcPenny's and Old Navy. Fiona shrugged, for she had never heard of either store. Her pureblood family lived in a castle in Ireland. They didn't get out much, unless they were visiting Fiona's uncle like they were now. Fiona followed behind Alyson to a staircase the moved upward toward the second floor. Alyson seemed to be excited about being there and her excitement was catching. Fiona anticipated shopping at the muggles' stores.

They stepped off of the stairs and Fiona followed Alyson to a store with racks of clothing throughout the store. Alyson grabbed Fiona's hand and guided her to a section. Fiona was surprised by the sudden gesture. She was not use to being touched and definitely not use to friends. Fiona shrugged it off and looked at the clothes beside her has Alyson led her through the store. Alyson stopped in front of the jean section. Fiona definitely needed some jeans, she had seen them on a lot of muggles. Fiona looked through the rack and settled on a pair of a dark blue color which hung on the hips and not the waist. The tag called them 'hip huggers.' Fiona held them up to her hips and figured they would fit. She wasn't use to not being fitted by a seamstress. Looking around, Fiona spotted some muggle t-shirts. Fiona quickly walked toward the shirts and spotted one of green material that would match her eyes. She held up the shirt and smiled. It would look good on her and she knew it. Fiona looked around trying to spot Alyson.

[pug]

Alyson walked out of the dressing room. She already choose three outfits. She spotted Fiona. " Found something?" Alyson asked her she went to the check out counter the girl being to ring her stuff. As she was doing so Alyson looked through the glass of the walls. She was always at the mall. She really need the muggles to see her power. They did. They treated her as a queen. As a ruler. She looked down at them. She had power that even her parents did not. She knew she was more than a peace offering. She was the only way the people could go. As the lady finished bagging her clothes she pointed to her pass and card. And waited for fiona to ring her stuff up.

[Fiona O'Reilly S5]

Fiona continued looking through the racks finally coming away with two pairs of jeans, a green blouse, a white long-sleeve blouse, and a green and silver sun-dress. Fiona watched Alyson come out of the dressing room and Fiona hesitated. She wasn't sure if she wanted to try on the clothes and she decided against it as Alyson went to check out. Fiona followed looking at each of her outfits in turn. "Yeah, I think I've found something that will be great." Fiona smiled as she laid her clothes down on the counter waiting for the woman to check her out.

Fiona watched the woman with interest. She had never seen a muggle look so happy just to be working, but the woman appeared to be jubilant. She was smiling and bouncing on the balls of her feet. She was so excited to be ringing them up that Fiona felt like the girl thought they were famous. 'Which they should,' Fiona thought to herself. She had been battling her thought process the entire summer, but she still could not help but think that muggles were primitive creatures compared to her.

The woman finally finished ringing up Fiona's clothes and Fiona handed the woman the muggle money she had pulled from her pocket. She wasn't sure if she gave her enough, but realized she had given her too much as the woman handed her back some money. Fiona tried to act casual about giving her too much, but she wasn't sure if it looked casual. The woman bagged Fiona's clothes and handed her the bag. Fiona nodded her head at the woman; Fiona was too good to actually talk to her.

"I'd like to see what they have in the way of jewelry here, but first I need to change into one of my outfits," Fiona said. "I'll be right back." Fiona ran off to the bathroom and put on her jeans and green blouse. She stuffed her robes back into the bag with her other muggle outfits. She looked in the mirror and took the clip that had been holding her hair up, out. Her long red hair fell to her waist in waves. Fiona smiled at her reflection as she picked up her bag and quickly hurried back to Alyson. "So are we off to the jewelry store?" Fiona asked with a smile.

[pug]

Alyson watched Fiona watch the girl at the counter and she went of to change. She came back wearing her new clothes and her hair down. "Great." Alyson said smiling as she pulled on the tags they came off. "Anyways lets go to the jewerly store." They walked down the rows of shops and many people people waved as they intured the shop. " This is the best jewerly store in the mall. It has jewerly people our age would like." she said her eyes on a shell bracelet.


" Take your pick." Alyson said looking at the new section.

[Fiona O'Reilly S5]

Fiona looked around the jewelry store. She wasn't sure if it was exactly her kind of thing. She liked jewelry, but she had only ever worn one piece of jewelry and that was her family heirloom ring. The O'Reilly crest shown brightly on the green jewel as Fiona looked down upon it. This piece of jewelry was priceless and it meant so much to her. She wasn't sure if she wanted other jewelry. She didn't want to over due the jewelry. However, since she was shopping. Fiona smiled as she finally came to a conclusion about the jewelry store. The stuff was poorly put together, but she could charm them when she got back to school so they wouldn't break. Fiona looked at the necklaces that hung on the wall. Little charms hung from their chains and Fiona picked up one that held a green heart. She laughed to herself over the ugly features of the necklace. She really had no idea what she would so with something like that. She glanced at the rest of the jewelry and tried to cover her expression. The store was cheap nothing was going to be made of good quality. Fiona picked up a bracelet that was studded across the band with the words HOTTIE. Fiona frowned at the bracelet before placing it back on the shelf. Maybe she didn't really need any jewelry, besides she probably wouldn't wear the jewelry anyways. She turned around to look for Alyson. Fiona didn't feel like staying there any longer. She wasn't much into such muggle looking jewelry. She'd wait to go to Diagon Alley or, better yet, Knockturn Alley if she wanted jewelry. They usually had a good selection for witches anyway. Fiona glanced back down at her ring and wished that she felt like she belonged to the family, whose heirloom she wore. She shook the thought from her mind as she remembered that she was supposed to be finding Alyson.

[pug]

Alyson stood at the front entrance with a smug smile on her her face. Her face was half covered in the darkness. The other side shone from the light of the mall. She was looking for Fiona. But she seemed to disappear. As Alyson eyes swept around the room she spotted her friend. She when up to her. " There you are. Ready to go?" Alyson asked she was anxcious to leave the muggle crowded place.


(( Sorry it was it was short I'm low on creativity.))

[Fiona O'Reilly S5]

Finally Alyson came up to Fiona and Fiona breathed a sigh of relief. She didn't want to be alone in a place she had never been before. Fiona nodded to answer Alyson's question on whether she was ready to go. "Please, let's get out of here. There are a lot of people," Fiona sighed. She wasn't in the mood to be around everyone. Fiona led the way out of the store and she looked around the mall. She didn't really know what else she wanted to look at. It seemed that there were a lot of weird muggle items to look at, but Fiona didn't really feel like being there anymore. "How about you show me this place of your grandfathers? It's still early in the evening and I don't want to go home yet. It might inspire us to go there," Fiona suggested. She really didn't know if Alyson wanted to leave yet, but by the look on Alyson's face Fiona was pretty sure that Alyson was also tired of all the muggles.

As Fiona stood waiting for Alyson's reply a group of muggle boys approached the girls. Fiona felt uneasy as the boys looked Alyson and her up and down. "Can I help you?" Fiona asked harshly to the boy that seemed to be their leader. He was bigger than the others and was wearing a white tank top and blue jeans that were too big. He had shaggy brown hair and brown eyes. He would have been attractive if it hadn't been for the look of hunger in his eyes that chilled Fiona to the bone.

"An Irish accent. You from Ireland then?" the boy asked as he ignored her question, but he didn't wait for reply. "Doing a little shopping this evening?" Fiona ignored him and turned to face Alyson. "Let's get out of here," Fiona motioned toward the way they had come. She was really hoping that Alyson would know how to deal with these boys or she would agree to leave. Fiona felt goose pimples rise on her arm as she waited for Alyson's reply.

((Hope this helps your creativity ;D))

[pug]

As they exited the shop. Fiona suggested they go to her grandpaws place. " Yeah. Why not." Just they were about to leave. Kevien Prinze came up to her. She knew his parents were rich but you had to be Specail to have evening passes. Fiona asked what they wanted. Alyson stood there with a smirk on her face. The boys stood there not anwsering. All waiting for Alyson to speak. Kevien dropped her a note on the ground. She picked it up.

Hey Aly,
Wanna go out friday?

THE PRINZE

Alyson laughed at how stupid he seemed. She showed the note to Fiona. Why would she a pureblood witch go out. No even think about going out with stuck up jerk. Tossing her hair over her shoulder she smiled with a dangerous edge. " My dear PRINZE if I go with you. I might hurl. And we don't want the PRINZEZZ to ruin her shoes. So leave. See yeah. Oh and if I were you. I would go for girls in your league. And I'm so out of it. If you were playing in my league you would be striking out. And your not even on the feild. So take those concert tickets and waste them on a prep." She said walking away. As they left ear shot she whispered to Fiona. " I go out with him? Please!!" She said laughing.


The Left the mall and they wLked to the car. " Hey Chev Were taking a walk. So see yeah at home. If mom or dad pop up I'm so not there." She said as he drove away. " We'll be walking so no one figures out were we're at." She said. She was already walking down the street. The wind was in her hair and the topic on every ones lips. Many ladies pointed at her as she moved by. Alyson rolled her eyes and moved on. She loved when people did that because sooner or later there fate caught up to the and they were gonna be gossiped about. She waved to a mother. She was really a witch. Actully she was Drake's mom and Alyson stopped to check up on her and there new born.

[Fiona O'Reilly S5]

((Just a thought, but if you know everyone then creativity becomes hard. So try to embrace a new situation without really knowing about it. Purebloods usually don't know everything about the muggle world. ))

Fiona was startled by the fact that Alyson knew the boy from the mall. She seemed to know a lot of muggles and Fiona wondered why a pureblood would be known to the muggles especially since it seemed like she felt she was above them. Fiona wouldn't make friends or even really talk to muggles if she didn't have to. Fiona shrugged as she followed Alyson out of the mall.

Fiona was disappointed that Alyson sent the car away, but she liked to walk also. If they were walking it would take a lot longer for Fiona to get back home and for that she sighed happily. Fiona didn't want to go home, not while her parents were still awake. Fiona stopped as Alyson seemed to greet a woman. She seemed to know the woman and Fiona stayed back. Fiona hated getting in the way and she didn't really care to talk to someone else. She was afraid that her father would be out looking for her, if he hadn't been since she left that morning. Fiona became uneasy at the thought and looked nervously around her. She did that everyday, it was weird. She wasn't sure why, but she just felt like she was being followed. Fiona rubbed her arm nervously as she waited for Alyson.

[pug]

Alyson tapped Fiona on the shoulder. " O.k lets keep going." She said. As the walked it remind her of something she read about at the Wekki Manor. It was like a feeling at feeling you were being watched. She put her sunglasses on. Even thought the sun was setting. On them were two mirrors so she could see behind her. She smiled trumpitly. She was right some on was following them!!! Her smile fell replaced by a worrid smile. She tapped fiona on the shoulder don't look now but someone is following us. Maybe we can lose him." She said as she turned a corner. Than she toke aright than a left. Than another left. Followed by going up and disappering inside a candy store. Walking out the back entrance and than walking up to a dead end. " Perfect. Alyson gushed as she tapped out her name on the bricks. The bottom row of the bricks pooped out and she stepped on she grabbed Fiona so she would be on them to.


As they rode up to the roof. She kept recieting the password so they could just be a spot on a muggles imagiantion. She stepped on the roof. She saw the the vent and she stroked it softly and an keyboard came up. On the screen it read.

If your not the oldest daughter of his son and daughter- in- law. Walk away don't use your magic for the door will never open. If your Aly type the password step inside and take wait is in side. For your pappy was waiting for you to get your prize.

Alyson just stood there. OLdest daughter? She was the only daughter. But she typed the password any ways and like magic a door handle appeared and she motoned for Fiona to step inside.


As she stepped inside. The door vanished and she and Fiona were inside her home. " When my Grandaddy died he left this. His house and all his possesions to me. The money to daddy. But it ends up to me anyways." She said as she picked up a Weird sisters record and put it on a music player desighned by her grandpa. She began to look around. It seemed everything she opened was magically. And it was. In the kitchen there were golden goblets with the famly crest and in the hall was potriots of every worthy witch or wizard from her family at the end was her portrait right beside her grandpa's. It was in a gold frme and the inscripion underneath read. More than a peace offering. The jewel of the family name. And there was a symbol. A raven sitting on a throne. And on uts side was a lion and a snake. All sitting in thrones.

She turned around and her eyes fell on the library. She waked to it. As she stepped inside she saw thousands of rows of millioions of books. She stepped out. " Fiona isn't this wonderful?" It was a retircol question.

[Fiona O'Reilly S5]

Alyson mentioned something about them being followed. Fiona shuddered and she wanted to look behind her. Alyson told her not look behind them, but Fiona chanced a glance. Sure enough she knew who was following her, but she figured that the person would be wearing an invisibility cloak. It was as if the person wanted to be seen. To make Fiona realize that she could never escape her fate.

Alyson turned the corner and Fiona followed quickly. They weaved around blocks and through a candy store before Alyson finally stopped. Fiona watched as Alyson took out her wand and tapped the brick several times. Suddenly the bottom bricks came out and Alyson stepped on top grabbing Fiona as she went. Fiona was definitely not use to being touched and couldn't help but feel a little irritated at being grabbed. all thoughts of this soon passes as the bricks rose to the roof. Fiona didn't know where they were exactly going. She didn't know if this was Alyson's secret place or her her attempt at getting them to safety.

Alyson approached a vent and seemed to touch it. Fiona was amazed when a keyboard came out. It spoke something about only the oldest daughter could get in. Fiona didn't really understand any of it, but Alyson must of, because soon a door handle appeared and Alyson motioned for Fiona to enter. Stepping inside Fiona recognized the secret hideout of Alyson's. There were portraits up and Fiona recognized Alyson. She recognized some of the others due to the books she had read. Fiona noticed Alyson walk into a room and she followed, seeing a library full of books. This was like heaven and Fiona resisted the urge to look through the books.

"This place is great," Fiona forced a smile. She really did like it, but Fiona was still shook up by the person that was following them. She was glad that Alyson hadn't brought it up yet, but sooner or later she was going to. Fiona didn't know what she was going to say about it. She didn't want to believe it herself, but she had seem them. There was no way to escape her fate. She either had to embrace it or die. Fiona looked back to the place that they had entered from. The door had vanished, but Fiona couldn't help but wonder if the person who had been following them was on the other side trying to get in. "I need something to drink, Alyson. Do you have pumpkin juice?" Fiona asked as she leaned against the wall. She was feeling light headed and she refused to faint in front of Alyson.

[pug]

Alyson was sitting on the couch looking at a tracking device. However was following them was still at the dead end rying to figure out were they were at. Or how they escaped. The name on the device read MINSTRY as if they sent them. But why? Alyson looked up when Fiona asked for some juice. She looked pale and weak. " Yeah. You sit down until I get back." Alyson said. She was already in the kitchen. She picked up a goblet and found some pumkin juice and poured into the goblet. " Here. Its fresh so. Its safe." Alyson said giving the cup to Fiona. " Soo... You have any ideas why the ministry is trailing me?" Alyson asked.


She could not help but to look down at the treasure book by her feet. It was unopened and Alyson had no doubt it was meant for her. But she could not shrug of the feeling if she opened it. She would have the responsiblity of herf family. And not just its name.

She shifted her weight to face Fiona. As she did so she knock the chest with her foot and it opened. She peared inside. There was a ring. More than that but it was the first thing that drew her attention. She picked it up. It was white gold and had a circle of sapphires on it. In the middle was a raven on a throne and by its side a lion and a snake. Also beside the ring in the bok was a journal. A genolgy book. And a birth certifcate? Under neath the cerftifacte was a letter. From her parents to her grandparents. Alson felt
weird and dropped the letter.

[Fiona O'Reilly S5]

Fiona accepted the glass and took a drink. Alyson asked her why the ministry was trailing her. "It wasn't the ministry, unless they're someone high up in the ministry working for the Dark Lord," Fiona whispered softly. "They weren't really after you. I mean, they might be now, but I really don't think so." Fiona didn't elaborate on her theory. She wasn't sure if it was safe to tell Alyson anything.

Fiona noticed a box on the floor. It seemed to be important somehow. Fiona could feel something that was definitely magical was radiating from the box. Alyson seemed to be avoiding the box. Unfortunately in her attempt to ignore it she kicked the box and it opened. Fiona watched as Alyson seemed perplexed by the contents of it. Fiona noticed what looked like a family heirloom ring and a journal, she could not see what else the box contained. Fiona looked down at her ring and realized that the Wekkis' must be an old pureblood family for they were usually the only kind that had family heirloom rings. Fiona couldn't see the reaction that Alyson had to the box. Fiona was sure that Alyson had had no idea what was in the box. "I think that's a family heirloom ring," Fiona said as she looked at the ring. "Is that your family crest?" Fiona was extremely interested in the contents of the box and all memories of the person following them were gone.

[pug]

" Maybe. I don't know about any dark foloweres in our family. But nobody seems to have the time to tell me anything. I can't believe it. All this time I was the family gem. Ha now I know why all this time every one was giving me things. You know land. Houses. Jewerly." Alyson said. It was not really talking it was more like spaking her mnd out loud. She picked up the the piece of paper by the ring it was addressed to her. It simply said. When she wore that ring her family was her. That when she was born he had that ring was ready for her.


She sighed and looked at her ring and slipped it on. It fit on her finger like it was made for her. Fiona asked if that was her family crest. " I guess. It was under neath my picture in the hall way and my grandfather had on just like this. But I don't know what it means. A raven sitting on a throne with a snake and a lion by its side. What ever it means I think its got to do with this birth certifactes. On for Alyson Wekki and on for Taylor Wekki. But who is Taylor? I mean why is my name by hers." Alyson asked. She was sitting on the couch. Her hand on the genology book.


She flippeded it open to the straight line desendents. Her name was there and beside it was Taylor's. She felt the feelings she she normaly felt. Incomplete.

[Fiona O'Reilly S5]

"Looks like we both have our own problems," Fiona sighed. She took a seat next to Alyson. "You have a birth certificate that has the name of someone you don't know on it and I have some wacko my father sent to follow me." Fiona really hadn't meant to say all of that, but she felt like she had a friend for the second time in her life. She actually wanted to share things and not keep everything so tightly wound around her heart. Fiona looked over at the genealogy book. "Taylor. Maybe they're like your sibling. I thought you were the only child?" Fiona asked. She wasn't really sure about that, but it seemed to fit. Alyson didn't know who this Taylor was and Fiona hadn't heard her talk about any siblings at all.

Fiona took a drink of the pumpkin juice and took Alyson's hand. Fiona was looking intently at the ring on her finger. "Kind of looks like the Hogwarts symbols," Fiona said thoughtfully more to herself than to Alyson. She shrugged as she let go of Alyson's hand. Things were just getting stranger by the minute for both of them. Fiona was trying to figure out why that guy had showed himself to Fiona and Alyson definitely not like him. She wondered where he had gone after he lost them in the alley. She looked over at Alyson to try to see what she was thinking about.

[pug]

Fiona suggeseted that it was her sibling. " Thats impossible I'm an only child." Alyson said. It was all confusing. She was an only child. Always have been always will be. " Hey Fiona not to pry but why was your dad sende some one after you?" Alyson asked. " And do you consider me as a friend. Because I consider you as a friend." Alyson continued. She looked at the genology book again. It said there it was her sister. Whoever it was she was gone. Fiona also guessed the ring was hogwarts symobles. Alyson smiled to her self because the hufflepuff symobl was missing.


She got up and walked back to the library. I'll consider this my headquarters. Alyson thought to herself. As she moved about she noticed a staircase. She climbed up until she entered another hallway.

[Fiona O'Reilly S5]

Fiona looked up at Alyson after she asked the question Fiona hadn't wanted to answer. "I knew the person following us. I've never met him, but I knew him. He's my grandfather. He was imprisoned at Azkaban for years, big supporter of the Dark Lord. A Death Eater to the core. So is my father and my father has been wanting to know where I've been going since I got back. I know he sent someone to follow me. I'll have to ask him about it," Fiona sighed as she looked at her hands. She didn't really like talking about her problems with people. It just wasn't like her.

"Alyson you are one of my only friends. I've never really had someone I could just talk to or hang out with. I definitely consider you my friend," Fiona said. She really did consider Alyson as a friend, but the fact that she was in Ravenclaw could ultimately mean disaster this coming year.

Alyson got up and entered her library. Fiona followed her for the sake of curiosity about the books. Alyson began to climb a spiral staircase as Fiona looked through the books closest to her. "Alyson, these books are about the Dark Arts. Didn't you say something about you grandfather being into the Dark Arts? I don't remember," Fiona said loudly as she looked up at Alyson.

[pug]

" Thats..." For once in her life Alyson was lost for words. When it came to the man following the Alyson seemed to have confusing thoughts. " You know. That gives me an idea. I own this. I own my grandparents house and I own all my grandfathers possesions. That means. As long as you want to you can stay here. You're welcome. There's fresh food in the fridge. Three bedrooms on the second floor. The master bedroom is on the the third. Yourr my friend too. And I do stuff for my friends. Do you know how hard it is to find a friend in a worthy pure-blood title?" Alyson said with a smile.

As they walked back to the library. " No I did not mention it. But he was. When I was little I would come to his study and sit in his lap and he would read to me from this library. We wer'nt here. At his house. But it was these books I can fell it. My grandapa died last year. It was the biggest lose of my life. He was my mentor. I could come with my problems to him. He was like a parent. Because I barely knew mine. He was more than a grandpa. He was my best friend." Alyson spoke in more than a whisper and her voice was firm. But you could tell she loved her grandfather more than amyone else.

She set down in an armchair. " This is comfortable. Very cozy. he always had style." Alyson said with a smile in her voice. She looked down at the floor. It was marble. The library was the most exlisuve place it the house. If that was what it was. It like headquarters for life. " This has to be the safest place in the world." Alyson said more to her self thn to anyone else but it was her her thoughts and she believed this was the place she would spen summer.
