The Grounds

[Nyssa Pond]

She got hit in the shoulder while bending over to scoop up more snow. She packed it together an side-armed it at Ron.

[Ron Weasley]

Ron was hit by the snowball and stumbled. "Whoa." He then laughed. He scoop up some snow and bombarded it back to Nyssa. "You're a real snowball fighter,aren't you?" He chuckled.

[Nyssa Pond]

"We take our snowball fights seriously back home," she replied laughing. The snowball Ron threw hit her in the stomach knocking the wind out of her. She fell down but threw the snowball she had in her hand at him while on the ground.

[Ron Weasley]

Ron dodged the snowball and rushed over to Nyssa,while laughing. "I'm really sorry,didn't know it hit that hard." He helps Nyssa up. "It's been a long time since I had snowball fights."

[Nyssa Pond]

"It is ok." she said laughing so hard she was gasping. "It makes it more fun."

[Ron Weasley]

Ron laughed along with her. He couldn't stop the laughters. "Yeah,I bet. Thanks for the snowball fight. I haven't had fun since the past few days." He then tried to stop laughing and asked,"What's your first class for today?"

[Nyssa Pond]

"Potions. You?"

[Ron Weasley]

"It's in ten minutes time,right? Don't wanna be late for Snape's." Ron shudders. "Care of Magical Creatures,actually. But Hagrid cancelled the class as it's snowing. So,I have first period free."

[Nyssa Pond]

"Jealous. Want to go to Potions for me?" she said getting up and brushing off the snow.

[Ron Weasley]

Ron laughed. "NO! That makes me having 2 hours of Snape! The agony!" He then said,"Come on,let's go. You look cold and I'm freezing,too." Ron said,brushing off snow from his jacket. He then makes his way back into the castle with Nyssa.

[Lydia Evans]

Lydia walked outside and groaned as she realized it was snowing quite a bit already. "So much for the nice spring weather." She sighed as she wrapped her scarf around her neck, glad she'd grabbed her cloak as she mounted her broom. She wouldn't bother going fast since she didn't want to have too much trouble with wind. She smiled, sighing as she felt her mind clear. "Ahh..." She looked back to where she'd left her bag. Bean was bundled up on it in a tiny owl-sized scarf and hat with a blanket and a pillow she'd knitted long ago for him. He was having something to eat so he was well distracted while she flew.

[Lydia Evans]

While Lydia was distracted by Bean she narrowly missed a collision with another owl, tumbling backwards off her broom. She had managed to grab it but slipped, falling about ten feet to the ground, landing on her wrist with a thud. She groaned as she heard Bean hoot with worry. She felt her broom land next to her and sighed. "I suppose that ends the flying for today." She mumbled before sitting up and groaning. "And wins me a trip to the hospital wing yet again." She looked annoyed at the thought. She gathered everything up with her good arm, wincing every so often before helping Bean onto her shoulder and heading back into the castle trying her best to keep her arm still.

[Theodore Nott]

Theo walked outside looking for Lydia. He wrapped his cloak around himself at the snow blew harder as he walked around the grounds. Unable to see much he continued to look for Lydia, hoping she wasn't flying around in this weather. Wrapping his arms around himself he kept his head down and went back to the castle.

[Effy Brookes]

Effy and Nyssa walked out of the castle and onto the grounds. It was still snowing.

[Nyssa Pond]

"Just when I think these grounds can't get more beautiful... I'm proven wrong."
