Detention with High Security.

[Anya Delioncour]

Two black haired ladies sat, waiting for the two students that had been assigned detention. Arsinoe Darkmoon- The Astronomy Professor and Slytherin Head of House- and Sonja Lycania, the Ravenclaw Head Girl. Andromeda Black and Celestia Moonshadows had both been given detention tonight, for the fight that took place in the library.

Glancing at her watch, the Aztec Professor didn’t look pleased. “Where the bloody hell are they?” She was one of the only teachers who cursed, perhaps because she was still so young, or maybe believed in freedom of speech. You never know. Sonja shrugged. “I dunno… Theodore is late as well.” She wasn’t sure why she called the prefect ‘Theodore’ but she did.

[Andromeda Black]

"Go on... come on! I can't keep pushing you forever!" The annoyed voice of Theo Guadel snapped at the Ravenclaw who he was literally pushing down the corridor.

"I'm going, I'm going..." The blond replied calmly as she turned a page in her book, almost tripping over her own two feet. Of course, Andromeda Black was on her way to detention, and since it was an awfully boring walk to there from the Ravenclaw tower, Andy decided she would entertain herself by bringing her book along. Her plan was working quite nicely in the beginning as she trotted down the halls, until she just was sucked into the book, walking a bit slower than a turtle. Well, around that time was when Theo came along, on time like usual, but rather than going ahead of Andromeda and getting to the detention on time before her, he stayed behind, deciding it would be the 'prefect' thing to do by escorting her. Unfortunately, the 4th year wasn't as willing as the 5th year had expected, but Andy did not do it on purpose.

"Come... on!" Theo snapped at Andromeda who didn't even bother to look at him. "Oh fine..." Theo muttered, trying to think of how to get her walking. His brain went dead. "Erm... I'll give you a butterbeer." Theo said, nodding with enthusiasm.

Andromeda didn't even bother to look up at Theo as if she hadn't heard him at all. This slightly irritated the Gryffindor as he pulled his watch away from his face. Without thinking, he recklessly scooped Andy up, carrying her in much of the fashion that a new couple would do at their wedding.

Andy did notice Theo this time. Completely stunned to find herself being held against the prefect as he barreled down the empty corridor praying the two weren't late, Andromeda shrieked, dropping her book. "NOO!" She cried, flinging her arms out in its direction as she watched it flop across the marble floor.

"OY! Not... in... the ear..." Theo yelped in between breaths as his strides began to get shorter, and finally reducing to a walk. He stopped in front of one of the classroom doors, Andromeda now clinging to neck.

"Here... we... are." He huffed, kicking open the door and entering, the Ravenclaw still in his arms. Theo and Andromeda each turned a bright shade of magenta as they looked at Sonja and Professor Darkmoon.

"Erm, I can explain!" Theo stuttered, letting Andromeda's feet softly hit the ground. Quickly, she let go of Theo's neck and untangled her now messy hair from his prefect badge.

"Well," Andy began. "That was an interesting experience." She stated, glancing around the room. "And where is dear Celestia?" She asked openly, waiting for anyone to answer.

ll Eep! That took a while. xP ll

[Anya Delioncour]

Arsinoe stared at Theo. "I don't even /want/ to know. Oi.. I need a firewhiskey," She grumbled, rumaging around in her desk. Sonja stared at her. "Professor!" Ari grinned. "I'm just getting tea. I was /joking/." The Aztec laughed, and pulled out several vials, taking them back to the back room. When she returned, Sonja stared at her again. "What was that?" "Ancient family recipie," was all Ari replied.

Sonja rolled her eyes, and looked at Andy. "As Soon as 'Dear Celestia' gets here, we'll be taking you up to the Owlery. It needs cleaning." OH, Celestia would not like that. Speaking of which, she walked in, about ten minutes later, a compact mirror snapping shut with a click. Figures. She was late cause she was making sure she looked perfect. Sonja looked at Theo, expecting him to decide what the proper amount of points would be to take away.

[Andromeda Black]

Oh fun. Cleaning owl dung off the floor.

"Are we allowed-" Andromeda stopped herself. It was probably best if she didn't ask her question. "Erm, never mind." She said sweetly, glancing over at Celestia who just entered the room. Andy avoided the eye contact.

Theo, (ignoring Arsinoe's comment) curiously looked at Celestia who just decided to turn up. "Should I ask why you are late?" He asked coolly, gazing at his new shoes. Slytherins, eh, you really didn't need to look at them.

"How many points Miss Lycania? Five? Ten?" He asked, his eyes slowly looking twords Sonja.

ll Sorry, it's short but hey. xP ll

[Anya Delioncour]

Celestia glanced at him, then back to examining her emerald finger nails. "Go ahead and ask, though it's none of your business." Sonja glared at her. "How about twenty for disrespecting a prefect and being late to detention?" She suggested. Arsinoe sat back in her chair with a smirk. She was the Slytherin head of house, but she found it funny when Celestia got in trouble. Strang girl, Ms Darkmoon was.

"Rawr, somebodies in a bad mood." Rolling her eyes, she made a claw-like movement with her hand. Sonja sighed. "Make that twenty five. And Theodore? Don't call me Miss Lycania. It's too formal. You have my full permission to call me by my first name."

[Andromeda Black]

Theo slightly blushed at Sonja.

"Oh, um, sorry Sonja, and just call me Theo then. My mum calls me Theodore." He stated before turning his attention back to Celestia. "Excellent suggestion. 25 points from Slytherin then, and I s'pose asking you why you were late is only fair." He shrugged.

Andromeda remained silent. She probably had an 'appointment' She thought, slightly grinning to herself. It was the only logical explanation.

[Anya Delioncour]

Celestia bit her lip. If you must know, I was trying to get that gunk off my forehead. The stuff that Devin girl put there." Sonja nodded. "Acceptable excuse, I suppose. Anyway, as I was saying to Ms Black here, you're going to be cleaning the owlery." She paused, waiting for Celestia to make some smart ass remark, but the thirteen-year-old said nothing. Surprised, SOnja continued. "You won't be released until all three of us, meaning Ms Darkmoon, Theo, and I, decide you have been punished enough."

[Andromeda Black]

Andromeda grinned. Ah, her fellow Ravenclaw friend who had made the words 'Free Rides' appear on Celestia's forehead really had been helpful.

"Alright then, shall we get going?" She asked, beginning to walk twords the door that led out to the hallway. Thank Merlin she didn't say no magic. Andy thought reassuringly to herself as she strode twords the door. With a few Scourgify charms, the Owlery would look good as new.

Theo nodded. "I almost forgot, no magic." He said as if on cue, knowing exactly what Andromeda was thinking.

Andy groaned, her posture slightly dropping. "Damn it..." She muttered under her breath.

Theo looked at her funny. Even though he had not heard what she said, he had a very good idea by the way her mouth moved. "Do I have to take more Ravenclaw points away? In the last two days you've lost..." Theo calculated quickly in his head. "Forty." He finished.

[Anya Delioncour]

{{Hun? This isn't Devin's detention. ^^;;}} Sonja smiled slightly at Theo, then glanced at the girls. "OK then. Lets go." Violet eyes staring at the ground, Celestia followed the Head Girl out with a shocking amount of obediance. Arsinoe watched wide eyes. "What the hell is wrong with that girl now?" It wasn't the same, having a calm polite Celestia. Much more amusing having an arrogant, rude, bitchy, slutty one.

[Andromeda Black]

Andromeda slowly followed Theo through the corridors and to the Owlery's arch way. He stopped just in front of the room.

"Okay," he began. "We, (meaning you two) will be cleaning all this." Theo gestured his hands twords the Owlery's floor covered in owl droppings with a large grin forming across his face. "And... I think it would be wise if we had your wands. You know, just in case you decide to sneak a Scourgify charm while we're not looking, right?" Theo asked Sonja and the professor.

"Right then," He answered himself without waiting for a reply. "I think you should use... this to clean!" Theo pulled out a toothbrush from his backpocket and shoved it twords Andy.

Andromeda looked at Theo in disbelief, her eye brows raising. "You expect us to clean the whole Owlery with your toothbrush???"

Theo looked at Andy curiously. "And how do you know it's my toothbrush?" He inquired.

"Because it has your name on it." Andromeda replied without expression. Theo glanced down at the golden letters that wrote Theo on the handle of his toothbrush. "Ah." He breathed, shoving the hygienic tool back into his pocket. "I was kidding you know." He said, although his tone was unconvincing. Andromeda rolled her eyes.

"What?" Theo said sounding a little embarrassed, shooting quick glances at Sonja that clearly said This one's too smart.

"Umm... what are they using to clean?" Theo finally asked, shoving his hands in his back pocket.

ll Sorreh it took so long to reply, and I made Theo sound a bit hyper. xP ll

[Anya Delioncour]

Arsinoe stood in the doorway, watching with an amused smile on her face. These people were incredibly strange! When Theo pulled out his tooth brush, however, The Astronomy teacher started laughing, and didn't stop until Sonja gave her a look.

The head girl conjured the proper cleaning supplies, then chairs for Arsinoe, Theo and herself. Then she took both girls wands, sitting down. To her surprise, Celestia immediatly started working silently. Shrugging it off, Sonja pulled out a book- 'Hogwarts, A history'.

[t]

Andromeda took the cleaning supplies and also began to work... although she obviously started several yards away from Celestia.

Strange... Andy thought as she began scrubbing th floor. Why is she sulking? It really was strange, Andromeda had never seen anyone so... schizophrenic before. It was truly a strange site to the Ravenclaw. Well, maybe she could try rousing up the atmosphere a bit. The huge dome was so quiet besides the soft cleaning sounds made by the two girls, it was almost uncanny. ll Heh, uncanny. xP Cool word. ll

Theo lazily plopped down into the chair and watched the two girls. One seemed to be slowly and delicately cleaning as the other was ferociously scrubbing the floor. Heh, it was funny how different the two were when forced to attend detention.

"That interesting?" Theo suddenly asked Sonja, peering over her book. The Gryffindor wasn't a big reader, but had picked up Hogwarts a History a few times in his day to find it pretty boring and pointless.

ll Sorry, it's very choppy. xP ll

[Anya Delioncour]

Ari watched the two with an evil smirk on her face. She had enchanted the room so it wouldn't really clean until they seriously worked together. Evil woman, she was. Sonja's eyes never left the page when she answered Theo. "Oh yes, immensly! I've read it about a bajillion times." It was weird to hear the Headgirl using words that didn't exist. She was such a bookworm- a few people used to call her a walking dictionary! {My friends call me that xP} Celestia suddenly looked up, frowning softly. "I've been scrubbing for fifteen bloody minutes,and there hasn't been any change!"

[Andromeda Black]

Andromeda looked over at Celestia, tempted to say something like "Your little fingers starting keel over from a bit of work?" But quickly stopped herself and glanced down at the floor beneath her. It also hadn't changed.

"...Yeah." Andy said slowly. "Nothing's changing."

"Well then scrub harder." Theo commented before turning his attention back to Sonja. "Neat." Was all he said before slouching down in his chair.
