! Snowball Fight ! Event

The thought of using her two snowballs on her boyfriend was definitely a celebration for Bloom. She couldn't think of throwing them anywhere else on the playing field. She was about to laugh in victory when a snowball had hit her. She looked over to see where it could come from, but she was unsure as there were too many people. Shrugging off the thought, she decided that it was time to go inside as not only was the game over, but it was getting dark. Bloom needed to make sure to have a decent meal and rest before going on her patrols with Reed. It was strange not to be around Ben at night anymore. But it was something that she needed to get over as she truly needed the pay out that the job gave.

Waving good bye to Ben with a smile on her face, she made her way to the Scottish castle's entrance hall and towards the grand hall where food was awaiting her and the rest of the students. Sitting down by the table, Bloom took off her wet gloves, placing them gently on the bench next to her and grabbed a bite of that nights meal.

Siege was out of it. He just woke up from some familiar girl's screaming and he was just dreaming about something pretty darn amazing.
"Cap, wake up! Get back up, we've got a wounded soldier that needs you Cap!" Sergeant Campos would say as the grenade struck Captain was lying on the ground. "You're pretty damn tough sir! Now get up! You're still intact!" The words of the Sergeant would ring in his ear, as he began to open his eyes, his eye lids slowly fluttering, finding himself in a battlefield much too similar to his dreams.

"Huh? Where...Oh no, the wounded Soldier!...I'm...Coming, Private!" Siege would mutter, still thinking he was in the battlefield. He turned over only to see the bleeding boy facing the snow and obviously fallen. "Oh no, was I too late?...No, I refuse to believe it! I'll be there!" Muttered Siege, struggling to get up, as if he was actually close to a grenade explosion.

Siege finally got up, although swayed a bit. He began to jog towards the fallen boy, a boy mind you that he didn't even know. In his mind, he was the fallen soldier that needed saving. Getting there, he noticed the girl who screamed, although he knew that he knew her from somewhere, he was too focused on the boy. "You'll make it soldier! Get it together!"

Siege would pick up the boy, putting the injured boy's hand over his shoulder."You'll make it private! Get it together! Get it together!!" 

Aurelia's first snow ball had hit Adam's hair. She squealed in delight. The other ball aimed at James missed entirely and landed no where close to where he was standing. Aurelia had to work on her aim. She crouched so the victims she had attempted to bomb would not spot her. She was having so much fun. Suddenly, there was a loud scream.

"Reid! Reid!"

A girl shouted.
Curious, she cranes her head to see the what the fuss was all about. The sight was gruesome. She cringed. A boy laid down helplessly on the ground, his shirt stained dark red. Blood. It oozed down from his forehead, the ivory white snow around him was stained red too. it was seemed as the game had came to a halt. Aurelia was a little disappointed as she only joined in a couple of minutes ago. An odd boy ran towards the unconscious boy and shook him while shouting,

You'll make it soldier! Get it together!"

She doubt that would help the injusred boy. Aurelia contemplated to help as she seen her Father tend to his patients wounds when he brough her to his Hospital when she was younger. But she turned around and headed back to the castle when she saw more people crowding around the boy attempting to help. She had an assignment to complete. The boy was the least of her problems.

 The fact that Reid had hit her with a snowball stunned Sabrina. She stood, her eyebrows furrowed as she narrowed her eyes at him. She was about to grab another mound of snow to hurl back at him, when he got hit with a snowball again. In the back of the knee. Then, he landed on his face - again. At first, Sabrina laughed a bit, but through her bitten lips and dimpled smile, she had a look of worry in her eyes. "Are you alright?" She asked, just as a girl screamed. Oh, there was blood. Well, that wasn't quite the best. Perhaps she should take him to the hospital wing. At least until the bleeding stopped.

 Before she had the chance to help him up and lug him there though, a boy came through and picked Reid up, tossing him over his shoulder. Flabbergasted temporarily, Sabrina stood with her mouth slightly ajar. Well, that was something. The boy seemed to be acting like they were on a battlefield. Trailing after them slowly at first, Sabrina realized the fact that this boy could be carrying him anywhere. If anything, Sabrina preferred to be the one taking Reid to the hospital wing. At least she knew he would be safe then.

 "Hey, wait up!" She hollered after the boy carrying away her best friend. She raced after them, suddenly thankful she had taken up a dance that strengthened her legs rather than not benefit her at all. She didn't get tired catching up, though it was a bit hard to keep up. She only ever really ran against Reid, and he was slow. 

Eri watched the strange scene unfold in front of her. Did one person just call Reid private? She shook her head. The brunette still couldn't believe that she had hit Acklery that was exciting. Sadly she got hit. The Ravenclaw was slightly confused. The snowball fight was over but there were still people standing around.

She had been foolish not to go to her dormitory to grab something warm to wear. All she had on was a plain t-shirt and jeans. No gloves, jacket, scarf, or any warm thing. Eri started coughing and feeling dizzy. She shivered as things started to slightly spin. Not enough to make her unable to walk straight. She cursed inwardly at herself for not wearing anything warm. She looked like she was going to faint but hopefully nobody would notice. 

The Ravenclaw needed to get inside but she wanted to wait and see what the others were going to do. Standing by a tree she shivered and coughed as she walked to a door. Maybe she could just go inside and get something to drink to warm her up. 

She could feel her brain starting to shut down. Eri needed to hurry inside before she fainted in front of everyone.

Aw, yes! Anatole's smile was back on his face and he was happy again. Despite being weak, blistered, and maybe even bruised, both snowballs had hit their respective targets. He could've said he dominated the court, but of course no warrior escaped without a few gnarly battle scars. The sun began to set and the snow began to melt, Anatole looking for some familiar beaten-up face to walk beside, to joke along with as he went back into the dark, boring castle.

He stood atop the stairs, a jolly grin on his face as others entered to the sides of him. The sun lit up his face with a bright orange hue as he scanned the crowd for one more person, he knew it would be entertaining to stroll beside as he walked in. Mister Harringtom himself. After all, he was the only one of Anatole's friends who had stayed in the fight the whole way.

The grin morphed into a smirk as the boys met glances. "How do you feel, Harringtom? Victorious? I see you still look a bit red in the face from my last hit," he noted pridefully.

Today had been good. He certainly would spend his time writing to Patricia all about the struggles of this snowball war.

Anatole waits up at the top for Adam to reply to his comment.

Serena frowned at Reid, standing beside Sabrina. The boy looked a little confused, perhaps in a daze or something. She was about to suggest getting him to the Hospital Wing or calling one of the Professors over to assist him, if it was a minor injury. However, someone else beat her to it. Someone unexpected beat her to it. 

Someone who was talking like he was in a war zone. Words like 'soldier' and 'private' hit her ears. Her eyes widened as she recognised the Gryffindor's face. Siege. "Wha-" She started, about to ask what the heck he was doing. However, he threw Reid's hand over his own shoulder and lifted the boy with ease. Serena slowly stood up, composing herself as she just blinked. None of this behaviour made any sense... It did not even make sense to her and she was the uninjured one here. Well.. At least Siege was strong enough to help lift the boy - she had no chance of doing that.

Although she did not understand what was going on, she turned to follow them. At that time, she noticed Sabrina had moved towards them. Sighing softly, she wondered if he would be okay. In all honesty, she wanted to make sure Reid was fine but... she really did not need to go spend any more time with Siege right now. That weird guy acting like he was in the army or something. Slowly, she started walking behind them before her gaze caught a glimpse of her snowball team mate's face. 

She looked... broken. Serena sighed softly, stopping mid track. She looked between the two. Clenching her hands tightly as she quickly tried to contemplate what she should do. Her heart was kind of torn between the two. Reid was physically hurt but the Gryffindor girl looked like she was in emotional pain. Sighing softly, she turned towards the girl and made her way over. Serena threw a look over her shoulder back towards Reid. He would be okay. She had faith in him. If she knew anything about him, he was probably far more resilient than she was. Besides, he had Sabrina with him. And Siege, but she was kind of worried that he would do more harm than help right now... Perhaps he reserved the hurt just for her, though. For now though, it looked like he was at least helping Reid. At least with Siege around, it was easier for them to get inside. She had no idea they all knew each other but perhaps they did. At the very least, she trusted Sabrina enough to know Reid would be okay if she was around.

"Hey, you okay?" Serena said with a soft smile on her face, trying to comfort the Gryffindor girl once she had approached her. Looking back at Reid before looking at her, she smiled, "Don't worry, Reid will be fine, he's stronger than he looks" She said with a nod. "C'mon, it's cold here, we should get inside," She continued ushering her in. They could talk once they were in the warmth. With that, she turned and walked towards the castle, ushering her to come with her.

Adam looked nervously on as people rushed to the Head Boy's aid. He hoped that his snowball hadn't had anything to do with it. Wondering if he should try to rush in and help, Adam bit his lip, afraid of what might happen if he did. There was already a growing crowd around Reid, and he didn't want to make the boy any more uncomfortable. Fortunately, before he was forced to make a decision, the Gryffindor prefect he had seen running around earlier jogged up to Reid, shouting something about a war and lifting him up to go to the Hospital Wing. That was strange. Well, at least Adam didn't have to worry about it any longer.

Making his way to the stairs that led back into the castle, he heard Anatole's familiar voice jeer at him and laughed. "You wish, Braveheart. It's freezing out here, in case you hadn't noticed." Punching his friend in the arm as he slipped by him into the school, he continued jokingly.

"And besides, shouldn't I feel victorious? It was a pretty good day for me. Ravenclaw, Hufflepuff, Slytherin, Gryffindor. Check, check, check, and check. That's a full house, mate. I win." Walking backwards so he could still talk to Anatole as he retreated into the warmth of the castle, Adam smiled. "You coming or what?"

[Adam exits]

She watched the scene slowly enfold in front of her. Reyna saw a few people take their leave into the castle, some even glancing at Reid beforehand before turning and walking away, while others ran or walked towards him. She watched as some Gryffindor boy, unidentifiable due to the darkness, tossed Reid over his shoulder, yelling something about... war? I just hope that Reid is alright... Reyna thought, crossing her fingers together.

However, through the entire thing, Reyna didn't move an inch. That is, until Serena ran up to her. At first Reyna suspected that Serena may yell at her for hitting somebody with a rock, but instead, she was shocked to find, Serena was there for her. She felt a grin make it's way onto her face, joy replacing the hollow feeling she had felt at first. "Yeah, I'm fine... I just hope Reid is able to get healed up quickly..." Reyna said, smiling at her team mate. "By the way, I'm really sorry about that... I had no clue that there were any rocks inside those snowballs, and I feel horrible about it."

Then, Reyna joined Serena heading into the castle. She felt much better coming out of the snowball fight then she had going into it. She felt far more complete than she ever had in her life, as though a missing piece of the puzzle had been stuck into place. She had her first friend at Hogwarts. And Reyna knew that she would protect this new friend of hers at any cost. A grin now stuck to her face, Reyna followed Serena into the warm lights of the castle, ready to get some warmth back into her body.
