Plot Fragment #3 - The Battle « Thread Started on Oct 17, 2009, 10:17am »
BATTLE FOR HOGWARTS THE FRINGE
PLEASE NOTE THAT WE WILL BE USING THE "MASS" THREAD FORMAT FOR THE BATTLE. DON'T FORGET TO CHANGE YOUR TAG LINE AND ASK PERMISSION BEFORE ROLE PLAYS!
The "Tag Line" must be changed every time a post is made, regardless of if you've put it at the beginning of your post, you must put it EVERY TIME you post.
Click Here for an Image Preview of Mass-Thread Format. Click Here for a COMPLETE Explanation of Mass-Thread Format.
This event will be opening on October 17th, 2009. This event will be closed on November 7th, 2009.
*Note: Remember what you're fighting for! The Werewolves and Vampires are fighting for rights. The Ministry is trying to disarm, injur, or kill them (Vampires & Werewolves). The two said parties will be able to use any spell they would like, whereas the Fangs, the DA, and the Order may only use legal spells. The Order is defending Hogwarts as a result, the DA supporting them, the Fangs rebelling, and helping the Vampires and Wolves. If you would like to sacrifice a character of yours, please let us know! A death or two will add a nice twist, and will further fuel the future plot!
The outcome of the battle depends on the Werewolves and Vampires winning, where, after a few deaths, fights, and breaking down Hogwarts, they will have left. Having them win, the future of our next plot depends on their ruling! Have fun with the battle, and fight till the death! (Remember to PM Connor before you have a character die, so it can be approved!)

The moon was bright and high as his werewolf brethren were behind him, waiting the chance to attack their captors who treated them badly, and who denied them rights. He was personally leading this fight, along with some of the few of the dark order had come along with him. Of course they were being told by other people, and it was a dog eat dog world with this battle, and surely enough, that the werewolves and vampires would gain enough respect if they had taken over this battle. If they had won, there was a chance that his werewolf brethren, and his vampire alike won that they may have a chance to take over this pathetic excuse for a world, and make it so that their presence is known, and not a part of some horror story.
The werewolves howled, and Fenrir looked at them all. Some had black fur, some had brown. Even one or two had blonde fur, but none had grey.Fenrir stayed to the shadows of the forest, avoiding the moonlight. He did not want to expose himself yet, or go wolf yet, only when it was necessary to do so. All he had to do was avoid the moon till he could maneuver his way into the shadow of the castle, and enter the castlee. He would attack from the shadows that way, and stay invisible to the human eye all at teh same time

Severus was in his quarters, donning his battle robes. He was calm, knowing that this was just another battle. He supposed that this reminded him of the Last Battle. Well, apparently not the last battle. He lined the pockets of his robes with healing potions and others that he felt he might need. He wanted to be as prepared as possible. The vials were spelled against being broken in any way, as a precaution. One never knew what could happen.
He reached for his flowing black cloak, and decided that it would hinder his efforts. His battle robes were black, made of practically indestructible material. The spells on it alone were worth thousands of galleons. They were a design of his own, that he had tested out himself in the Room of Requirement. The robes were tight fitting, conforming to him like a glove. His customary billowing robes would not be appropriate in this instance. As theatrical as they were, they would trip him up.
He placed his wand in his wrist holster and glanced around the room, making sure he had everything he would need. He ran through his mental checklist. Severus was paranoid…he did not want to be caught unprepared. Assuring himself that he was as ready as he would ever be, he quietly stalked out of the room and up to the Entrance Hall. He saw no one as he tread quietly upstairs. Apparently everyone was hiding…or something. He knew the enemy would be close by…perhaps not inside, but trying to get in. He promised the Headmaster that he would patrol outside, providing some extra defense. The Forbidden Forest was his area. There but would be others, but none of his caliber. He was one of the most qualified, due to his study of Defense Against the Dark Arts.
His senses were acute, cataloging everything he heard. He stood in the entrance hall, collecting himself, clearing his mind of all thoughts. He gently eased open the door and moved silently into the night. It wrapped around him like a cloak, caressing him and whispering secrets into his ear. The moon shown brightly in the sky, and he loathed it. It reminded him of werewolves. He shuddered. He still remembered Lupin, and what was done to him. He bared his teeth silently. Here was his chance to get revenge on their kind.
Howls pierced the quiet night, and Severus raised his head and listened to where the sound was coming from. He stood waiting in the clearing in front of the door, waiting for them to come. He knew they were close. His wand sat ready in his wand holster.

Fenrir crouched down into the brush and pointed his wand at his throat and said snorus, his voice now loud. "Dear, me, its snape the potions professor of hogwarts. Too bad you couldn't fight along side us. You could of been something better then a mere potions master. Too bad your carcass will be used to feed my brethren" said Fenrir as he sent the werewolves off in other directions to do what they had to do.
"So, lets stop with the antics because we both know that this is going to be a key battle for both of us. WE both know what will happen if either of us lose" said Fenrir, using quietus shortly after that. Fenrir moved amongst the brush, swiftly and quietly. He had to make sure that snape could not see him, and he was sure he would not come un protected. Neither was Fenrir in his act either. For the exception was that his was pure dark magic that some would kill their own mother for.
Fenrir tookk out his wand and aimed it at snape. The spsell incarcerous emerged from his mouth sending ropes towards the unsuspecting snape, the ropes would bind him. He did not want to kill him, he wanted him to be alive when he was eaten alive.

Severus jerked at the sound of Greyback's voice soaring clearly and loudly throughout the grounds.
Dear, me, its snape the potions professor of hogwarts. Too bad you couldn't fight along side us. You could of been something better then a mere potions master. Too bad your carcass will be used to feed my brethren"
Severus snorted. As if this filth thought he could best Severus.
"Ah, Greyback. I remember you...you were llcking the Dark Lord's feet like the dog that you are. That is what you are, in case you were unaware...nothing more than a glorified dog," Severus continued in disdain, making it clear to Greyback exactly how he felt. The need for subtlety was not here today. He was here to take on the enemies of Hogwarts, and he highly doubted that Greyback was even capable of understanding the slightest bit of subtlety.
Severus remembered the terrible things that the werewolf was allowed to do under the Dark Lord. He wished that this creature was destroyed once and for all. The area went quiet again, and Severus did not know where Greyback went. He stretched his senses out and detected nothing.
Suddenly, a flash of light lit up the immediate surrounding area.
"Incarcerous." Ropes flew out of the surrounding darkness and sought to bind him. They did indeed do their purpose, but Severus was not fazed. He simply concentrated, and the bonds fell away as if they never were.
Thankfully, Severus was well-versed in wandless magic. It was however something that, if overdone, could deplete him totally of magic for a time. Which would not be good in this instance. Given that he was dueling for his life...He hated wands, but he drew his with elegance and speed, not sure what else Greyback was going to throw at him, or even where he was. Yes, he knew where the spell came, but he was unaware of where exactly the werewolf was.
He took a deep breath and said sarcastically, "is that the best you can do? No wonder the Dark Lord lost the final battle, if he had you on his side..." Severus sneered darkly. He cast no spells, preferring to bide his time, until he revealed himself, knowing that eventually, Greyback would, given his temperament.

Fenrir had moved from his past location, to not reveal his presence to the teacher. The pathetic teacher had insulted him by calling him a dog, and then was taunting him. Snape had been bounded by the ropes, but the ropes had fallen off. He was no idiot, he knew wandless magic, but he also knew it was difficult to accomplish with the skill that it took to cast it.
He had to think and quick. He pointed his wand outward and said "Flagrate". A wand of magic fire came out from his wand and he began to draw it around snape while thinking of another spell. The fire would keep him contained for a little bit, while he thought of another spell to use. He had to make shadow and quick if he wanted to get farther into the castle then he should be.

Severus waited silently, not showing any emotion. In truth, he really didn’t feel anything. This was just another battle to him, and he expected that he knew what the outcome was going to be…a group of renegade werewolves against the finest teachers from Hogwarts? He also knew that nothing was a sure thing…stranger things had happened.
He could imagine the rage that Greyback was feeling right now, and Severus was hoping that it would drive him to do something foolish and impetuous based on emotion. He muttered a quick human revealing spell, but it revealed nothing to him. He imagined that it had something to do with the werewolf side of Greyback. The spell worked its best when the individual was entirely human.
Sighing, he was startled yet again by Greyback’s voice calling out from the darkness, “Flagrate.” A wall of flame surrounded him quickly, and he could feel the heat it generated, adding a warm, slightly evil glow over everything. He arched an eyebrow and looked at it for a moment before using the wand that had lain dormant in his hand.
”Aguamenti,” he called. His pronunciation was off, for some odd reason, and instead of jets of water, he simply got a small sprinkle. Rolling his eyes, he repeated the spell, until jets of water shot from his wand and circled around until all the flames had died down to smoke in the wind. He shook his head and said mockingly, “you really think that is going to stop me, Greyback? You’ll really have to do better than that… Using such child’s spells.”
He continued. ”Let me show you how it’s done…Deprimo!” A jet of red light blasted a hole near where he thought Greyback was standing. He was not sure if the man…wolf…was smart enough to move again right away. He supposed he would find out soon enough.
------------------------------- [ ` Tags!`] //Lyrics: Black Black Heart-David Usher//Complete?: No//Word Count: 311//Notes?Hm, this is kinda hard to write...I know Severus would be more than capable of dueling, and he wouldn't make a mistake, but I don't want it to seem like he's invincible, ya know? It's not quite as much fun that way. But it's hard! I suppose that Greyback could just jump in there and rip his throat out, so yeah...lol.//

Fenrir had moved from a spot that was previously scorched. He expected as much, seeing as this is a battle, and each had t ofight for their own side, and most likely their lives. But Fenrri felt at hand, that he was determined to win this battle, but also did not to plan to lose his life in this battle of beasts and humans. Fenrir, using the shadows to his advantage once more, he casted teh snorus spell on himself and said "Really Snape? I thought you would love childrens spells, seeing as you are around those young meatbags." The Quietus counter charm for the snorus spell was put back on him, resuming his voice to normal. "Belawtrious-Orimo" Fenrir said from the woods, as a flock of bats came out of hiss wand, and towards snape.
