(Its before school, the week of settlement, one of the first few days.)
After a few moments of silence, Gwen spoke up again, "Well, alrighty then. We don't need to know. But we do need something to do, any ideas?"
"Oh, Mar, have you been to your room yet?" Hermione asked, eager to find something to do.
Her mood matched everybody elses, they just wanted something to do. They we're going to spend a week here with no classes, and had to get used to the building. At least the freshmen area and the dorms. And what better way of doing so than as a group of friends, just goofing off?

Although Constantine had registered in an unusual way for the School, he still had a hardcopy of his scedule which he fished out of his pocket. It was a wrinkled parchment piece and listed his dorm and his class schedule, and had a map of the School on the reverse. He reminded himself that this was an orientation week; there were no classes and all of the students wouldn't have arrived yet. He studied the schedule and purposefully wiped the scowl off his face as he replaced it in his pocket. Meeting these people --like this-- would sure be interesting. He did not know how much they or the OC students knew.
The first thing to do in any case was to find some other people. No, the first thing to do in any case was to stop being so pessimistic. If this whole setup was harmless, than he might as well enjoy a chance to have nothing more than the worries of a high school kid for a while.
He began to wander in the direction of the main underclassmen area.

It was evident that the others weren't going to be moving any time soon. as Mar mumbled his answer, Siren felt her energy levels pick up again.
"hey guys- i gotta go look for my sister, she ain't good with new schools," she started, looking round at the confused faces, 'especially as she's embaressed about her powers…' she added in her mind. "I'll meet you guys in the caffeteria in an hour?" she looked round at their faces. gwen seemed slightly confused, but grinned at her all the same as Siren put her arm round the girl's shoulder's almost comfortingly.
"yeah sure," grinned Pip, then winked at Mar, "anything to get rid of the girl."
"HEY!" complained Siren, glaring at him, then broke into another grin, unable to help it.
"i'll come," said harry suddenly, the others looked at him confused, "well… she doesn't know the school all that well, and she might get lost."
siren shrugged. "cool- see you guys in an hour." she waved over her shoulder as she started to walk away, trying to remember what kayla's dorm number was, as harry caught up with her.

"Well." Gwen said as the two ran off, "Anybody have something we can all do?"
She tilted her head, and checked her watch, memorizing the time. She would know when an hour was, her inner clock would tell her when an hour was over. It was an odd ability of hers, one that she took pride over but nobody knew about. Nobody but herself.
"We could go explore around the lake." Ron suggested, shrugging, linking arms with Hermoine from the gap Harry had left.
Hermione linked arms with Mar, taking Siren's spot, "We just can't go into the Forbidden forest, like the name, it's forbidden. There are creatures in there that will kill. I would like to live."

Constantine sensed action and slowed his steps. Act casual... He peered around the corner. Four teens--two OCs, Hermione Granger, and Ron Weasley. They were innocently standing in the hallway in a human chain. He turned the corner and walked toward them wth the attitude of a student with too much time on his hands. They would notice him. That's the way it happened in RPGs.

Siren brushed passed a tall youth on her way to get to the building. she mumbled an apology and turnd to harry.
"i wander why there's so many new people this year," he wandered out loud, he caught siren's surprised look and seemed to translate it at hurt as he added, "not that im complaining or anything." siren chuckled as he coloured darkly. "i was jst…"
"thinking out loud?" she asked, trying to stop herself from laughing.
"yeah," he cheered up at that thought. he peered round, "so where's this sister of yours?"
"and brother."
"kewl... twins?"
she laughed. "nah- older brother, johnny. he'll be wandering where i got to."
harry nodded, evidently meeting siren had been quite interesting- the rest of his family just had to be just as interesting. siren opened her mouth to ask him something- when he paled and pulled her behind a pillar.
"what?" she snapped, trying to back out of it.
"uh- it's just uh…" he peaked out from behind the pillar and backed away again, "i'm not here," he hissed.
"coarse your here," she sighed, she grabbed his sleeve and pulled him out of his hiding place.
"no wait- siren- no!"
"hi harry," said a breezy voice from behind siren, coming closer towards them, siren whipped round coming face to face with a sweet chinese featured face, her black hair was long and glossy. she was shorter than siren, with a soft scottish accent to her words. even siren had to admit this girl was a beauty. she suddenly understood harry's jumpiness and had to supress another laugh.
"hi," his voice came out all high pitched, he coughed and tried again, "uh- hi cho…" his face was pink, "how're you?"
she chuckled at him. "im good, who's your friend?"
siren smiled at her. "nah- he's jst mi shower rounderer- ron's my cousin and sort of assighned him the job," she rolled her eyes, almost in fustration. this cho girl didn't need to know harry had offered to take her round- he had probably been trying to find an excuse to bump into her. she put out a hand, "i'm serene waters- but please, call me siren." she lowered her voice slightly, "i cant stand my real name… serene… honestly- couldn't mi mum have come up with anything better?!"
cho stared at her, the started laughing. "cho chang," she replied shaking siren's hand, "new girl i take it."
"yep- and here to stay by the looks of it."
"ah- it's not so bad, and with harry to look out for you, i think you'll do fine." she bestowed harry a glittering smile, "nice to meet you, siren."
"see ya cho."
she nodded at me, then fixed her soft black eyes on harry, who seemed to melt under the gaze. "bye harry," she added, softly, then walked off.
harry stared after her, it wasn't till siren coughed, not very discretely did he snap out of it. he looked at her, almost daring her to say something. she pressed her lips together, and turned away.
"so… cho eh?" she choked out.
"don't start waters," harry sounded mock threatening as they started off again, pushing her slightly. siren just rolled her eyes- she could see a chance for match making coming up... she'd just have to wait till she got to know the 2 of them btter.

"Looks like he's lost." Hermoine stated, nodding toward a tall student walking randomly nearby.
"Well, we can show him around. Everybody?" Ron asked, turing back to his frinds from where he had follwed Hermione's gaze.
"I wouldn't mind. It would let us get used to the place too. Mar?" Gwen replied, tugging at the boy's arm next to her to try to get an answer from him.
They all waited, in a comfortable silence as they let Mar try to make up his mind.

Constantine caught the eye of Hermione and smiled, then looked at the peppy brown-haired OC with the striking eyes. He moved closer, but stopped a number of paces away from them as if nervous. "'ello." He said. "Hey ah, I'm Ron, a transfer student. Feels pretty stupid, me wondering around in these halls, but you think you could help me with directions?"

(lets ignore Mar for now, he's being dragged along, silently)
"Well!" Gwen said, not noticing that the new comer was looking at her, "Lets show him around!"
"This might get quite confusing with two Ron's." Ron muttered, rolling his eyes but smiling.
Gwen was feeling confident, happy, and for once in her life, social. She wasn't being shy. This made her unexplainably proud of herself, boosting the three.
"Hey, Ron! Nice to meet you!" Pippin said, breaking the circle to walk up to Ron, the others following suit, "I'm Pippin, and these are Hermione, Ron, Gwen and Mar."
Everybody exchanged hello's with Ron, quite cheerily. Even so, Pippin seemed to be the leader at this moment.
"Well, where do you ened to go? Did you find your room, or do you need help with that?" Pippn asked.

Constantine nodded happily at them. "I know where my dorm is, but not much else. I, erm, arrived here a little unconventionally."

Mar stood quietly not really wanting to talk. He was always this way. He'd only speak if someone bugged him enough.

Siren found Kayla talking to a few first years animatedly. she had eventually found her way to her room. she was estatic to see Siren again. she bounded up to her, and threw her arms round her big sister's waist.
"this place is amazing!" squeeled the younger girl, "they're all so friendly!"
"i know," siren replied, poking her side, "guess who else is here?" kayla shrugged. "the weasleys."
kayla's eyes widened. "really?! they dont mind?!"
siren laughed. "nah- ron's pretty damn pleased about it actually. it was dad that seperated us from the rest of the family remember. mum liked em."
"good point..." kayla fixed harry with her blue eyes, watching him with mistrust. "who are u?" she demanded.
siren started laughing again. it was a waters trait to be protective over each other. you messed with one, you had the whole clan to deal with. and more than likely the extended family too. "dont worry about him," siren ruffled her little sisters hair, "his name is harry potter, he's a friend of ron weasley."
"oh..." kayla relaxed, "thats ok then. hi harry!" she added in her perky little voice.
"hi," he replied, grinning, looking quite pleased, "like the school i guess." kayla nodded excitedly. "wait till u start work- u'll get so bored."
kayla made a face. "yeah i no... siren's going to go mental. she mite even burn the place down if she gts too bored." siren burst out laughing all over again seeing harry's shocked face. this was far to easy to shock him. evidently 1 who had not grown up with magic. "oh ye- siren, johnny's looking for you. wants to do usual big brother thing u no him."
siren rolled her eyes. "yeah i know. i'll see u later hun." she hugged her sister quickly, waved at her friends, and tugged on harry's sleeve to pull him along.
"burn down the school?!" he asked, shocked.
"i'm a fire elemental," siren explained briefly, "and i cant always control my powers." she shrugged. "i got angry in my last school."
harry grinned nervously. "remind me not to make u angry."
siren hugged him quickly. "that was a while ago, dear, ive got far more control now!" harry relaxed and squeesed her shoulders briefly.
"now where would ur brother be?"
"wheres the gym?" asked siren smirking.

"Well," Gwen began, "We haven't either. Thats why we have a week, to get used to the place."
"So, do we go explore now?" Pippin asked, getting nods from everybody.
Everybody looked at Mar, and Constantine for their answers. Those two would decide their course of action.
