The Order of the Phoenix is gathering again. The war against the dark wizard Grindewald seems minor to what is advancing now. A new Dark Lord is on the rise, ready to kill all the mudbloods out of his way, and become the greatest sorcerer in the world. He is getting more followers by the day and getting stronger with each passing month, Spies are getting bolder and are more of them then ever seen before in Hogwarts alone. But will he succeed? Make sure that you destroy him, together with the Order, or be doomed to get killed by his hand.
MM, let's go backinto the past;;
Month
November
Remember, remember the 5th of November
Guy Fawkes tried to blow up parliament and so, every year on the date of his death, we continue to condemn him (or celebrate him depending on your point of view) to his fiery hell by placing a replica of Guy on top of a huge pile of wood and then setting it on fire. We have some drinks, enjoy ourselves and then watch the sky as fireworks fill our eyes. So yeah . . . just another excuse for a party! Wooooo!!
Points people! Points! A new school year and new points to add!! Congratulations to SLYTHERIN! For winning last years school cup!
And well done to the ORDER! For fending off those Death Eater attacks!
Now lets see what next year holds for us all!
Revamping much?

A Relaxing Lunch {Lily/Open} « Thread Started on Oct 23, 2009, 4:32am »
It was nearly a month ago that Dorcas had been out with Sirius and they had run into Severus. Well, she bumped into Sirius at the three broomsticks absolutely rat arsed, pissed off of his face, forgetting all meaning of the words 'personal space', but Dorcas hadn't minded. Since she'd lost Chris last Christmas eve, It was nice to be that close to someone again and for it to be a comfortable closeness, even if Sirius was drunk. What was interesting was Severus being there. Dorcas didn't mind Severus, they were in the same year and the same house, but she didn't exactly approve of all his choices. She just hoped that soon, he would make the right decision and ditch his friends. She was pretty sure he wasn't a death eater yet, but give it time and she knew he would be. He would be an asset to their cause.
Deciding a little while ago that she'd try and go out more often rather than studying for her Hitwitch course all the time or working for the order within the ministry, Dorcas had owled Lily and arranged to meet her for lunch. They weren't insanely close friends, but they were close enough to go out for lunch once in a blue moon and to catch up with each others lives. Besides, they were both in the order and it was hard to talk when all that was going on around was evil, evil, evil. Dorcas had to admit she hadn't seen James in quite a while either. She owed a lot to that man, he'd saved her from herself on multiple occasions.
Having booked the place, Dorcas had told Lily where to come and at what time. It was a cool sort of day, the sun hidden by dense clouds that threatened to rain, and so Dorcas had opted to sit and eat inside where there was a nice wood fire going to keep the patrons warm. She'd invited Alice Logan too, but today was a bad day for Alice, apparently she was hoping for Frank to propose. It was beautiful, Dorcas thought. James and Lily were engaged, Alice and Frank would be too, but on the night Chris was meant to have proposed to her, he'd been killed, sacrificing his life for hers. It had been hard to live after he was gone, and she wore the engagement ring on her right hand, but there wasn't a day that had gone by where she hadn't thought about him.
Settling down in a seat close to the fire, Dorcas ordered herself an orange juice and waited for Lily to arrive, while she waited, she looked over the traditional menu. She'd never been here before, but according to Emmeline Vance, it was quite a nice place with friendly staff and a relaxed atmosphere and Dorcas figured, that doing the work they did, she and Lily could do with a good break from anything exciting and just spend the afternoon relaxing and enjoying themselves. They were far too young to get worry wrinkles just yet. They'd only just left Hogwarts after all and Dorcas swore she'd caught a glimpse of a grey hair when she was running her brush through it last night before she went to bed. Grey hairs and wrinkles freaked Dorcas out. She didn't want to get old before her time.
