WELCOME TO HOGWARTS

[Kenni]

Speedy followed his Head Girl, Cheshire, down the winding hallways after their magically-appearing supper finished blowing his mind. He spent half that time tugging Starfire's hair and motioning about how there was no trace of a physical trick underneath the tables; that had to have been real magic just then!

"Star! Are you as stoked as I am?! What're they gonna let us do tomorrow..? I can't wait ta fly in a Quidditch match, learn howda care fer magical creatures...d'ya think Bido'll be part've the magical creature set?! I miss the liddle guy..that'd be so much fun! " babbled the delusional ginger as they approached the Hufflepuff dorms, alternately nudging Silverwing and informing her of similar excitement, as well as makign small-talk with some of teh newer Titans he was starting to wake-up enough to recognize again.

Cheshire let them in, having been privy to the passcode for the week/month/time interval they'd be starting with.

'Playpen.'

Within was a childlike wonderland specially crafted by Madame Mae-Eye's careful care and love for her 'children'; it seemed all fun and games and bright colours, foosball, air-hockey, goldenrod loungechairs forming a King Arthur's Round Table sort of set-up in the middle for cooperative council-meeting-type purposes, perhaps, to foster the group into a tighter-knit body like siblings should be.

Speedy was the first one to hit the slide into the transparent-walled, trampoline-bottomed kiddy-pool, though. The water wasn't on tonight, but in its stead were several water noodles and beachballs he and a couple of other kids were beating each other over the head harmlessly with, laughing like idiots. He didn't consider the physics or sense of their being a trampoline at the bottom of what was optionally a pool, or how the water kept from soaking through the material that aided him in dramatic flips and kung-fu poses until he lost his breath, his yellow robes flipped over his happy and exhausted face.

It was just magic, plain and simple.

Before he could explore the room some more for additional ridiculous modes of exercise, the general cheer of the room was sucked out like the beachball his butt had deflated upon his last landing.

It was the nightly announcements' fault there.

Hufflepuffs in several states of previously buoyant animation seemed to freeze themselves.
(Speedy would later realize he'd flipped the Antium-Gravitosa switch on their fun-room when he'd rocketed Silverwing into the sunny-yellow padded wall near the entrance by jumping the trampoline a bit too hard.)

Hostages.
FROZEN.
Chamber of Secrets.

Something at the back of his mind, about the necessity to remember himself, pricked (especially being frozen before). This wasn't all fun and games. Civilians were undergoing the same fate he'd been subjected to thanks to...thanks to...what was it again? The entire Brotherhood of Evil fight was still foggy at best in his memory, and he wasn't linking his disguise and super-name to any higher meaning than this being his school-time identity.

Shaking his head a bit and yawning, he bid Star, Silverwing, and the others goodnight, heading for the boys dorms obediently.

It had been a long, whimsically wonderful Christmas Day, and while he looked forward to tomorrow's first class like it would be New Years, he felt a strange apprehension after replaying that

CHILLING

scene over in his head from Mod's Brit-cast moments prior.

Silverwing was stunned for words.

Stun to see SPEEDY flipped with what was happening to them. It didn't make it any better that he was ecstatic by their fun-playpen-common-room of horror. To add more oil to the fire, he accidently knocked her into next Wednesday the wall, by accident. Being a good sport and nice. She forgave him

But....

It better be an accident, Speedy. She thought to herself. Or else. She gonna kick him where it hurts super bad. Snort. Well, she wasn't in the best of mood.

Sue HER!

She began to wonder. If Speedy has hit his head along the ride here, or had been brainwashed. Or BOTH! It was either that. Or he was super good hiding his concern and worries. The fact that! They have been kidnapped and taken hostage by a bunch of crooks. Who are putting them into a fairy-tale-make believing-imaginary-magical-school? Ruining all things that were Harry Potter! Hopping to educating them into becoming as evil and as crooked as THEY ARE! 

Can this day get any better? NO!

Cos, she, Kimber Fowl, Silverwing will NOT stand for this rubbish. If no one was taking this seriously, she will! But, then came the nightly announcement and the horror sank into her. Watching helplessly. Watching the innocent and helpless teens from Robin group. Turns into a frozen human popsicle.

Not, the best word to reflect the current circumstances.

Now, with all hope, enthusiasm and determination inside her disappear. The villain has their iron claw on them. Falling back to a chair. Feeling lost. She wonders. How will they escape now? How will they save the day? What will they do? Without, risking the life of others. She saw Speedy bid them (she and Starfire) Goodnight. As she did too in return. Noticing, the happy-go-lucky Speedy exit the common room, with a quieted complexion.

Breakfast was at seven sharp. This wouldn't have been a problem if Robin had been able to get any sleep the night before. He was used to running on little sleep, and had spent a good portion of their forced "lights out" tossing and turning in his bed. The young Leader was trying to come up with a way that they could escape. They had to save the civilians, that was clear, and his own stupidity had already managed to get a number of them frozen.

Robin woke up at the first bell. It took him a moment to realize where he was, but the reality of their situation sunk in as he got ready that morning. The Boy Wonder didn't appreciate the "school uniforms" but he could sort of pretend the stupid robe was like the cape he usually wore…only longer. He could pretend he was Batman, but that would just be stupid. At least his tie was two of his usual colors.

The second bell let them know they could walk down to breakfast. Robin made his way back towards the common room and scowled at the white haired girl lounging lazily in one of the chairs for the rest of Gryffindor to come in. He didn't have to wait terribly long before Ravager escorted them down to the hall they had been in the night before. Robin was mildly surprised to see that the ceiling had changed to reflect the early morning light.

Food appeared "magically" much the way it had the night before, and Robin did his best not to draw any attention to himself. He'd feel awful if he was the cause of anymore civilians being frozen somewhere within this crazy castle. So he sat besides Beast Boy and tried to draw as little attention to himself as possible while he ate his breakfast.

There were no speeches this morning. Instead the Titans were rushed off to their first period class. Which left Robin blinking outside in the morning sunlight as he tried to figure out what was going on, and if they could possibly find a means of escape during this…whatever this was outside.

This was not a good scenario for Fred Valiant, aka the Toonster. He had just gotten used to being stranded on the Titans' version of Earth. Now the bad guys had stuck him in this "Hogwarts" place and didn't even bother to brainwash him like they did with some of the others. The least they could have done is insert memories of him reading Harry Potter.

Still, with all this craziness, the most Fred could do is play along and hope that he'd run into a Titan that had some kind of plan of how to get out of here. The first step was to figure out where these bad eggs wanted him to go for this so-called first period class.

"Hey, bud," he said, calling out to the first student he could find, "You got any idea where the house with the lion thingie for a mascot goes for first period."
