Will strolled Hogsmeade's streets, pleasuring the many smells that wafted toward him. He sniffed earerly at them, but didn't pause at any store to investigate what it was. Will wasn't sure where he was going, but his feet obviously had made a destination. Smiling at everyone he passed, Will managed to go through Hogsmeade and end up at the Shrieking Shack. It was like an onimous sign on the hill, making him shiver under his cloak. Yes, it was a cold fall day, but yet it was made colder by the small shack on a hill. The fence was stretched and twisted in odd designs, but Will didn't wish to stay much longer. Chiding himself for letting his feet wonder off course, Will turned around abruptly and marched back into the village, determined to find something to pass the time.
Usually on weekends such as this, Will could be found lounging near the lake, but today he had felt like going into Hogsmeade. He needed to go into a village and see people once in a while. The prospect of shopping again seized him and he entered Zonko's, expecting to see many things. Instead, the shop appeared empty. Will blanched openly at this sight; he had been hoping to buy many jokes and pranks only to find everything taken. Was he really that late in visiting Hogsmeade durning the school year? Will shrugged it off and entered the only section that was full: the muggle toys section. He glared, clearly upset at the selection he had to chose from. Instead of moping about it though, he quickly picked up a baseball and, after buying it, went out in the streets again. He shifted the fist sized ball in his fingers, examining it thoroughly before looking up with some amusement.
The baseball hovered above the nearest man's head, making him glance up. Whenever he did this, however, the ball would dodge out of sight, causing the unlucky passerby to glance uneasily around him. This continued repeatedly until Will tired of the man and went to a random girl. He knew it wasn't nice to pull such a prank, but if filled his time well. He went through five people but was stopped at the sixth. The sixth - a boy of eighteen - saw the ball and quickly batted at it, causing Will to lose control over it's actions. The ball flew to his left and hit a girl in the arm. Will blinked and quickly went to the girl, ignoring the cursed muttering around him. "Are you alright?" He asked uncertainly, glancing at the girl's arm where a large bump was from the impact. Oh man, he thought with an uncomfortable feeling of guilt looming over him. "I can fix it if you want," he told the girl, hoping she would allow him to.

Alyson had just finished her meeting with Mrs. Smith. The woman gave Alyson many anwsers as well as an excuse for lunch. Lunch though wasn't on her mind. The happy thought that rang in her mind was that Taylor was alive. She was in Britian and, she was with a pure-blood family. Taylor was safe. That was what mattered. Knowing her sister was even just living brought up Alyson's spirit. The day she would meet her was drawing near. Alyson could feel it in her bones.
She toke a right for some unknowen reason Alyson shivered. Not of coldness. It was a reaction to a feeling of something was gonna happen. She stopped at one of her favorite stores and exited with two new quills. The feeling still didn't go away. Alyson was to involved in thinking about what it was. Or what it was she didn't notice the boy playing with a baseball. Nor did she notice it coming at her until it had hit already.
The boy him self had a guilty look on his face telling Alyson alot. He asked her if she was o.k. " Yes I'm o.k. Not dead am I?" She said a bit crooser thatn she meant. " If you must." She said after he asked if she could heal it. " The name is Alyson by the way. Alyson Wekki." She said a bit warmer.

Will nodded so quick his head hurt. "Of course, Ms. Wekki." He said with a quick smile that soon faded from his lips. The girl was obviously not happy about the situation and probably had no humor for it either. Will sighed and took out his wand, muttering the healing charm under his breath and tapping the bruise. It immediately vanished into fine, smooth skin. He placed his wand back in his pocket and glanced a smile at the girl, hoping she was quick to forgive.
"I really am sorry, Miss. I didn't mean for it to happen, I was just having my own little fun. Then, this one guy hit it over to you and I lost control..." He put on a grim face and glanced over his shoulder, hoping to see the man who had hit the baseball, but he was gone. Probably didn't want to be blamed for anything, Will thought sullenly, feeling very guilty over his own actions. He picked up the baseball from the ground and let it slide around his fingers. "Again, I'm terribly sorry for the inconvenience. Are you hungry at all? If you are, I'll get you something pleasant to eat, just to show how upset I am at this incident." He grinned and pointed toward a cafe down the street. "That's a nice restaurant, or so I heard. Would you prefer to eat there, or somewhere else?"

" Its o.k. I really was my fault. To wrapped up in my own thoughts." Alyson said. " And sorry about my attitude it toke me by suprise." She apoligized. " Its o.k I just ate. I was meeting a lady about... sorry don't wanna bore you." She said looking away. She began rubbing her which was newly healed.
Dwelling on what to do she let her mind wonder. " Have you seen the feild behind the three broomsticks?" She asked. Knowing that the flowers grew so well she enjoyed the time of yearw when the would sprout again.
" Its very pretty. I went when I was younger with my grandfather. Its really gorgous." She said as she rember a smiplier time.

Will smiled grateful as the girl modestly put some blame on herself. He didn't say anything to counter her blame, since she had looked somewhat like a day-dreamer when the ball had found it's target. He smiled and ran a finger over the pattern of red across the ball, keeping half his mind on that as he did so. The girl - Alyson - said that she had just ate while she met a lady. Will raised a quick eyebrow, but didn't comment on it. He flipped the ball in the air, watching it spin, before catching it reflexively in his left hand. He grinned at the girl, pocketing the ball in his jacket pocket.
"I would simply love going to a field of flowers," William replied, although flowers weren't exactly his favorite to see. He didn't remark his feelings though, since Alyson seemed to be excited about going in one way or another. He smiled gently at her. "Let's go behind the Three Broomsticks and while I escort you there, you may relate your problems with that lady you mentioned early. It would certainly not bore me, and there really is nothing else to do, right? Unless you don't want to talk about it...that I can understand too." Will grinned as he began to walk slowly toward where the Three Broomsticks was, trying to imagine a field of flowers behind it.

" Wonderful." Alyson said with a smile as they set of to the feild behind the three broomsticks. She considered telling him about her meeting. He did ask and she wasn'tkeeping it to her self anymore. " Well actully that was my sister agent. At the age of two my twin sister and I were seperated due to a problem between my grandfather and his son. My father. I was raised mainly by my grandfather as a child. My parents build magical town so as I grew up I barely knew them. During my first year here my my grandfather died." She started to began her tale. A slow, silent, and single tear slipped down her smooth face. She smile as if it didn't hurt her.
" This summer while a friend and I were out shopping we were being followed by a man so I decided to hide us in my grandfathers place. A secert hideout he build him self. No one knows about it exept us. When we got there I found my family heriloom. And I found out about Taylor. Later this summer my father died. So I haven't found out much about her from him." She stopped talking to brushing a stray peice of hair out of her eye. The color of the ocean that relected the sun's rays.
" Just now I found out that my sister is alive." She said smiling as they arrived to the destination.

William grinned at Alyson as she began to talk, but it soon faded as the story wore on. He realized that it was indeed no happy tale and he would be having difficulty relating to her multiple problems. Will smiled empathetically at Alyson. He had gone through something similar, but it had been heart-wrenching for him as well. He blinked when Alyson finished, not noticing where they had stopped. "I'm sorry to hear that. I really am. I've been through something similar in some way. I never knew my parents. Only a little while ago did I discover that my parents had been very wealthy and had been one of the leading purebloods in society. They died in a fire, however. I never met them." William sighed but shook his head after a few moments.
"You don't need to worry about me though. I'm fine after sixteen years of living through it. Your problem interests me more then mine. Your sisters' agent, did you say? Why were you talking to her agent of all people? Are you hoping to...adopt her or something?" The question sounded even sillier to Will then expected, but that's what he got out of it. It also sounded like Alyson had experienced death in abundance, but that was a subject he did not wish to touch upon. A sudden sadness took over his good looking face, making him look older. Poor, poor Lucifer....Will shook his head, determined to forget the young stallion until break. Then, he would begin their training. He smiled at Alyson before turning his attention to their surroundings. Ah, he realized with a hint of perplexing. They were already at the Three Broomsticks. All they needed to do was walk around it. Will nodded at Alyson so she would lead him to it, since he had never been there before. "Shall we?"

Alyson listened as he told her about his problem. " Thats sad. havn't you tried to find more about them?" She asked. A breeze ran through her hair sending the golden waves behind the teeenager's head. Her father and grandfather once commented that she was their mini ocean. She ussally wore it down as a child in waves and her eyes were the color of the ocean. Her aunt went into deeper details. She said she was all out. She was either calm, or thrashing. Just like the ocean. The white sand color of her skin. And her voice the sound of the waves arriving at the beach. They also said her personality macthed it beach as well. Tne beach was a lively place. She was a lively girl. The beach was romantic if two people would take a walk through it at night. Her mother said she was romantic as well except for the part she didn't love anyone except her family. Alyson thought more about how she was always told she was the mini ocean. Smiling to her self as she rembered about the amukent around her delicate neck. Alyson added to the list. Just like the beach. If the sun is up, so an I.
The older Ravenclaw asked why she was meeting her sisters agent. " Well I won't adopt seeing that I m to young. But I learned about my sisiter alittle bit. She goes by Talor Peonl. Adopted daughter of a wealthy pureblood family. Sorta of like my family has been. Oh and she's alive." Alyson said with a smile. She almost never smiled anymore. But knowing Taylor was alive and well had brought the winning smile back to shine. As he said if the should go around. Alyson got af feeling they were being watched. " umm yeah." She replied as she was only half listening to the boy.

William smiled gently at Alyson, touched by her concern. "Yes, I have tried but they lived out in the country and weren't very social either. So not many people know very much about them, but I found someone who was a pureblood and was one of the few people who conversed with the Senetta's. He couldn't tell me much." His voice dripped with disappointment once more but he mentally shoved it aside. There was no need for him to worry about things like this again when it was in the past and he couldn't do anything to reverse what had already passed. Will smiled with a note of bitterness and brought himself back to Alyson quickly to focus on her words.
"Oh," was all he managed for a bit. "It sounds complicated. I've never heard of the... of the family she was adopted by. And I know quite a few pureblooded families." William smiled and shrugged it off. A soft breeze came again, ruffling up his hair. Will patted it down quickly. Will frowned as Alyson didn't move forward to see the flowers. He - after all - had no idea what it looked like. He would prefer her to go there first. He raised an inquisitive eyebrow at her. "What's wrong?" He asked, looking around. Perhaps she had seen someone, or something that was bugging her. Will knitted his brows together as he leaned back on his heels, awaiting her reply.

" Oh I'm sorry I wasn't paying attention. There is some one behind the building I don't know if we should go or not. It really is up to you.'' Alyson said as she pushed a stray hair behind her ear.
Some one was there and they were following her. She was scared. But being a Wekki she had to seem that she had it under control.
((it was like so short I'm really sorry. Really I am so drained from my creativity.))

William stared at Alyson. Someone was behind the building? He brushed back his long hair and gazed at the building. He didn't really see anyone around there, but he turned back to Alyson quickly anyway. "Umm..." Will stood there, dumb-founded, as Alyson continued to look calm. If someone was behind the building, didn't that mean they were following them. After all, Alyson had been the one to lead him to the flowers, talking about how it was beautiful. Now, she let it be up to him. William put the two together and ended up with only one conclusion. The person was following them. William hadn't even seen this person yet, but he knew that it could be dangerous if he (or she even) was really following them. Will had only been put in one of these situations before and it hadn't ended up well. One of the less likable bullies in the orphanage had decided to pick on Will. The kid - Thomas - had followed Will to the pasture with the horses, and had attempted to beat him up. William smirked as he remembered the out-come. Thomas had fallen over the fence and had become scared by the horses that were inside. Will shook his head sadly, for he had gotten in lots of trouble for that. Not that it was his fault. Now that Will was almost a grown man, his release from the orphanage came closer and closer, a distant horizon in the future. "So, what are you going to do about the person who is....hiding behind the building?" William asked slowly, with a skeptical raised eyebrow. ((Don't worry about the shortness. Just try to make it longer next time. ))
