Jaina narrowed her eyes as she walked throughout the hallways, her hand wrapping tightly around her wand as she searched the school for straggling students. So far she hadn't encountered anyone, but she knew the chances of avoiding that were dwindling away. Hopefully, she'd be able to find some wayward students instead of whoever had collapsed the library ( ... )

Maes had heard the announcement and had gotten serious right away. He knew it was going to be a rough day with just the library exploding...but now they had to deal with a corporeal Belladonna. He made sure he had his wand and started working his way towards the Great Hall. His letter to his wife would have to wait until after things were settled. He hoped Roy and the others were okay...especially Havoc since the man was posing as a student at the moment ( ... )

Jaina's head snapped up as soon as she heard the man calling to her, and she instantly recognized the journalism professor, for once with a grave expression on his face.

"Professor Hughes, I was instructed by Headmaster to find missing students," she said with a nod, not wanting to disrespect him but also making it known with her tone that she wasn't going back to the Great Hall until she was positively certain all the younger students were safe, "There's still some missing, and I'm not leaving until I find them."

Jaina froze when Professor Hughes started running towards her, and she frowned, quickly drawing out her wand and turning around.

Her heart skipped a beat for a moment as she saw her House Ghost Belladonna approaching, not looking so ghosty anymore.

"Damn it," she whispered, focusing her mind and getting prepared for a duel.

"Ah, ah, ah," Belladonna murmured, heels clicking as she calmly made her way down the hallway. There was no rush, no need to hurry.She could savour each sweet moment of it, each drop rolling across her tongue like honey.

"Lets not have you scurrying off. I have so longed to make each of your proper acquaintance." Her words were a frost creeping through the air, chest rising and falling with breaths she needn't take, fingers flexing contentedly around the familiar length in her hand. It was like the wood came to life between her fingertips, bloodthirsty dogwood and writing basilisk coiling and ready to strike.

Her smile was relaxed, almost serene as she flicked it easily towards Maes and then around to Jaina, a shower of red sparks snapping towards them both, more to alarm than anything else, the violently coloured snaps of light bright enough to burn the eyes.

"Mmm. I had so missed this," she murmured lovingly to her wand, dragging it across her cheek. "We are together again, my love."

Somehow Maes doubted that Jaina's statement was the entire truth. Still, he couldn't exactly say NO. The Headmaster had said older students could travel in groups. Well, who better than himself?

Still, this was the exact situation Maes had feared they'd get into. He drew his wand in one hand, not daring to make the first strike. Who knew, maybe Belladonna would deem them pointless and leave. Maes doubted that, he may have been an optimist but he wasn't stupid ( ... )

Jaina immediately used the back of her free hand to shield her eyes from the red sparks. It took a few moments before she realized that if it weren't for Professor Hughes casting a shield charm, she could have been killed in that moment. She paled, she was in way over her head here.

Ghost Widow wasn't particularly fond of Jaina to begin with, what with her being a halfblood in Slytherin, and Jaina had spent most of her school career hating the transparent witch. It just...never occured to her that the undead muggle hater that she spent hating and ignoring could very well kill her.

Jaina swallowed. Now was not the time for this. She had to fight passed her fear and stop her. Jaina couldn't allow her to get to the younger students or her friends.

She pointed her wand at Belladona, her face drawing into a mask of determination, "I'm ready," she said to Professor Hughes, and she meant it.

"On your guard? How risque. In my day a professor never advised a student to mount anything or anyone." Disbelieving laughter pealed from her throat. "On your guard! Oh, you card."

Those eyes, cold and white as polished marble shone with a sick delight. "Can we not all revel in the reunion? I am sure your sweet daughter would love a party of the like I shall be throwing." Her lips, dark and sinister, stretched back to bare gleaming teeth. "Perhaps she'd enjoy a merry romp with your little brothers, Solo? A little brood of mudbloods, dancing fitfully down the stairs."

The air around her hands crackled with a purple electricity. "I had better prepare an invitation," came her sweet, venomous voice, as the hallway began to shudder, the ground cracking and warping. With an exhaltant cry she raised her wand and aim it at the ceiling, chunks of it starting to crack and rain down on the pathetic little duo. "A fitful dance!"

Maes scowled at the former ghost. This was going to get bad, very bad, and Maes didn't see another Professor coming. He'd been in bad situations before though and the key was not to panic. Jaina seemed to be handling that part well at least.

"Leave my daughter out of this," Maes growled under his breath. If it was one weakness of his, it was his daughter and wife. His family meant more to him than his own life and to hear this sinister witch bring her up so casually was almost like a knife in his gut. Elysia and Gracia are safe...she can't touch them he thought to himself, knowing Gracia was an excellent witch in her own right.

Maes felt the ground start to shake under his feet. Shit! What was she doing? Maes shoved Jaina hard with his free hand, "MOVE!" Just as the rocks started to fall from the ceiling, Maes fell back in the other direction, directing his wand upwards at the same time, "Wingardium Leviosa!" He caught most of the chunks of ceiling in midair but a few hadn't been caught by the spell and fell around the two ( ... )

Jaina's face fell at the mention of her brothers, and she could feel the raw anger boiling up inside of her. That ghost bitch could mess with her all she wanted, but to bring up Jacen...

To bring up Anakin!

She hissed, drawing out her wand, "DON'T talk about my brothers!" She growled, thinking of every offensive spell she knew and trying to decide which one would hurt the most. She noticed that Professor Hughes had also been visibly affected by the Widow's comment, but unlike herself he seemed to be keeping it under control.

Now wasn't the time for control. Ghost Widow had hurt students, had harrassed the kids in Jaina's house for centuries, it was time to try and turn the tables ( ... )

He was certainly resourceful, she'd give him that, taking advantage of the very blocks she had sent to crush them. The witch's expression remained lightly pleased as she countered with a blasting curse to destroy the pieces of stone and create a heavy atmosphere in the hallway, thick with dust.

"Hush," Belladonna ordered easily, flicking a silencing spell at Jaina as she drew closer, a dark outline appearing through the cloud, the regular sound of her steps still sounding. "Needless nattering does little good."

In another breath she moved, quickly, murmuring a happy "Petrificalus totalus" at darling Maes, taking advantage of her speed and the cover provided by the blasts aftermath to inflict the painfully simply spell on him ( ... )
