Caught Up in Everything [open]

[Lyra Isabelle Hawkins]

Lyra knew it was a risky day to visit Hogwarts, but she needed to, seeing as it was the day where Dumbledore died. She wanted to keep out of all of the fighting, but she wanted to try to save Dumbledore. With Dumbledore the Order had a chance to win. It was getting later and later, and she had only a few minutes until her shift at the Three Broomsticks was over. It was then she saw the Dark Mark being cast above Hogwarts. Quickly Lyra checked out feeling she was oh so very late, and might not make it in time.

Lyra hurried through the gates of Hogwarts, across the grounds and traveled up the stairs, stunning Death Eaters and one Order member on accident, having not recognized them first. It was getting hard, but she wanted to save Dumbledore because that could save her father and her brother's soul in the future. But before she could get up the stairs, she accidentally ran into someone. She put on her best worried face and looked up at the one she ran into.

"What's going on?" Lyra asked in her best scared voice.

"It's the Death Eaters!" Astor said as he dis armed the one attempting to stun him and being the so called Dueling Club Captain, had used his dueling skills to disarm and stun the Death Eater him self. "They attacked during the night now it's up to .. Confringo!" He screamed getting distracted as he watched a wave of death eaters come running up to him and pointed his wand at a broken roof and blasted it making sure it fell right on top of them. "Sorry it's up to us to stop this fight. I really do hope you are here to help and fight because if you are not." Astor said as he slowly turned around taking a few small breaths and faced toward the girl.

"If you are not here to fight then I will take no shame in killing you my self. This is my home. My friends have died here today! I shall not let another death happen!" He said as he once again blocked another hex that was being hurled at him. "Accio maxima, Avis!" He screamed as he conjured and charmed the bird to attack the death Eaters, Not only did he summon a few birds but in the matter of the current situation summoned over 100 birds to attack maybe even more. "So what is it you are to do here?" He asked again directing his attention at an Adult.

She felt like a total idiot coming here tonight. When Lyra was able to get away from work it was too later, and she knew it, but yet she still came to try and change the future. Lyra pretended to regain her composure, which she never really lost, but needed to be convincing. Lyra dodged several spells heading her way. If only she had saved her night off for tonight, but she had to take her one day off a month Madame Rosmerta allowed, which meant she had 12 vacation days in a year. Not bad, and very good for Lyra, given she was... well no one knew except her family, so she didn't think about it too much.

"You're a brave little boy, aren't you? But you don't have to worry, I'm was just on an errand from Madame Rosemerta to pick up a package Dumbledore had packaged for her," Lyra answered drawing her wand, turning it towards a few Death Eaters, using a variety of magic of her own invention, so of it sending them a few seconds in the future, which could gain an advantage for them(because she could move out of his aiming area before they reappeared), making some of them disappear momentarily. After all her studies on time she had done and made some pretty marvelous spells, though some were completely useless, like how to make a light appear in the future, or the past.

"I'll fight with you, but we need to get up to the Astronomy Tower, I have the strongest feeling that something big will happen there that we'd or I would want to prevent," Lyra stated as she slowly was able to make her way up a few steps closer to the Tower, though still quite far away. She might not make it in time.

"Excellent!" Astor said as he too hurled a variety of spells and charms towards waves of Death Eaters that seem to be squirting through the main doors of Hogwarts. "Confringo!" He screamed as he noticed a half broken stone hanging off the roof of the main doors. He knew that if he were to destroy this part it would land on the current death eaters and block off one of the entrances for them. Of course he watched as the spell hit the stone and dropped with only smoke and ruble to be seen to where Astor thought it would be a good idea for this to be the get away plan that the adult had been speaking about.

"How did you do that?" Astor asked as she watched the adult use her own magic which was rather unique. I would really like to learn that if I end up alive by tomorrow! He thought as he nodded and said "Astronomy Tower? Why? But okay! " He said pondering then just doing what she had ordered and indeed made his way toward the tower only to be stopped by a man in a black robe standing in front of them.

Billy was also part of the battle but on the side of the Death Eaters. He was dressed in a black robe with a hood which covered his face so no one could see what he looked like. The only thing noticeable about him was the metallic blue and red wand that was given to him from his uncle who was also a death eater. He more so killed his uncle for it rather than just took it off him. "Scums!" He screamed as he rolled his neck and blasted green flashes of light toward other staff members not caring about who he killed as he had no remorse and even killed children and even his own death eaters at times with out any care at all and killed recklessly.

He continued to walk to where he found two people standing in front of him just in distance. "Well it's just us now here isn't it?" He said in a dark dead tone as he pointed his wand and instantly flourished it as jolts of silver came out of his wand as he went running behind a broken book shelf. "Fight me and die. It's your call!" He said as he stood up and watched what they were going to do.

[Lyra Isabelle Hawkins]

"It's a spell of my own invention, very complicated spell," Lyra replied to Astor's question. And then the black Death Eater came by. Oh no, she couldn't allow this. Dumbledore would be dead and there was no point of her being here tonight if she didn't do something. Lyra glared at the black robed figure and held her wand at the ready towards him. All these darn Death Eaters, what the heck was she going to do? This was one of her not as well thought out plans.

"Oh shut up you idiot," Lyra said rolling her eyes towards the Death Eater, "I haven't the time to deal with you. Terminus!" That of course was the incantation for her spell, which would make the Death Eater disappear temporarily, of course she knew it meant sending him slightly into the future, if it hit. Lyra turned towards Astor as she began running away, "Are you coming?" Maybe the Death Eater would go away and let her save Dumbledore, but Lyra seriously doubted that. Lyra fired her spells, along with the basic curse package, avoiding the unforgivables (even though in the future they weren't called unforgivable curses.

Instantly when the witch spoke had Billy decided on apperating just behind a book shelf. It was in his opinion a wise idea as he had just dodged a hex he had not even heard of. A Black cloudy, thick, gloomy plume of black smoke ricocheted around the room only dodging the hex which the witch had casted. "Are you serious? This is what they send to defeat us?" He laughed as he joked around and knew that since Hogwarts was being run by Death Eaters that it was now safe to apperate at any time with out the use of being caught. "you are all stupid!" He screamed as he once again apperated but this time just a few meters near the bookshelf that was next to them.

"Fools!' He said as he shot out a dark bubble out of his wand. The large jet black bubble flew toward the sky which upon touching the sky had broken down into what looked like a thousand or if not a thousand even more of what seemed to be fist shaped rocks that went flying all around the room bouncing off everywhere hitting anything in its path excluding Billy him self. "See if you can protect against this!" He said as he also conjured up a fiendfyre in the form of a frozen phoenix. "Go my servant! Attack and kill!" He said as he watched the blue smoke vanishing from the tip of his wand and taking form of the frozen phoenix.

[Lyra Isabelle Hawkins]

Lyra cursed to herself when she had missed the young Death Eater. Lyra reacted instinctively when the rocks began showering on them, conjuring a protective barrier barely in time, shielding her and Astor from the attack. Fiendfyre. Of course that's what the idiot chose to conjure. There was no real counter to it, but Lyra knew how to avoid it. She quickly ran at the young Death Eater, barely avoiding the flames, using her basic package of curses as well as her time curse, just before the fiendfyre phoenix caught a small part of her jacket, spreading. She quickly pulled off her jacket as it was engulfed in flames, luckily the flames had not spread to her shirt or she could be in real trouble. Just the shear heat had created a huge burn on half of her face. which began blistering. It hurt like fire, and Lyla fell to the ground applying pressure hoping it would relieve the pain.

At least where she came from medical practices were more advance and she knew a simple spell that would relieve the pain temporarily. She quickly preformed it, and instant relief came to her face, more like numbness to the burned parts, but it was better than pain. She looked up, casting a shield barrier, just in case there were spells fired that she didn't see. Screw Dumbledore. There was always later they could defeat Voldemort. She just wanted to kill this stupid Death Eater. "Avada Kedavra," She said pointing her wand at the Death Eater, sending a green light towards him. Just in case he avoided it, she send spells, though not the killing curse, in several directions hoping that at least one would hit.
