COLLIGOWEEN '09 ➠ FUTURE-DATED TO THE 31st.

HALLOWEEN COSTUME BALL
The convention center was alive with activity tonight. The locals acted as if an event such as this happened every Halloween, prattling on in their corners and within their groups about the previous year's happenings, from costume winners to drama queens who had made near-scandalous scenes. There was punch and cookies, cakes and candies, and even a bar at the back that served alcoholic beverages to those of age. Within the convention center, all seemed right. Safe. Enjoyable.

But, down below...

Unknown to the residents of Colligo, one Ethan Rayne was currently hard at work in the basement of the building, setting up a spell he knew by heart. It hadn't gone according to plan last time he cast it, but he was confident it would go his way this time -- especially when his way was also The Collector's way.

He glanced impatiently at the clock. 7PM. The Collector said 11PM. In four hours, all hell would break lose in a symphony of chaos.

"Cinderella's leaving the ball a little early this year..."

MOD NOTE: This is the kick off to the ball! Sub-threads can be found within for your use. However, keep in mind that no one knows what Ethan is up to or that he's even in the city. Future-dated to allow people time to get threads going.

THE COSTUME SPELL IS NOT IN EFFECT YET. This is being done in order to give members time to game within the party prior to the spell being cast. When the spell is cast, a new sub-thread will be posted and members will be notified via the OOC comm. SPELL ACTIVATED!

Questions? Don't hesitate to contact one of the mods.

Scorpius was walking into the party, dressed quite oddly.. even for him. But he'd likely fit in since it was Halloween. He was wearing big, flowing and extravagant wizard robes, complete with pointed cap. He had spectacles over his eyes. And to top it all off, he had a long white wig and fake beard. He probably could be a magic Santa.. or possibly Merlin from the movies. Or any kind of wizard, really.

But the truth was that he was dressed as his boyhood hero. Someone he had only read about, but never met in person since the man was before his time. He was.. Albus Dumbledore, one of two best headmasters of Hogwarts, and one of the two great men that his best mate was named after. Scorpius glanced around as he walked in the room, curious to see the other costumes..

Merlin wandered in cheerfully, quite pleased with his costume, and loved looking at everyone elses. He had come as a ghost, in a white-gray suit, his hair sprayed white, and makeup and powder on his face. He'd stopped his wandering at seeing a man in robe with a beard and hat.

"Hey!" He beamed, and bounded over to the other male. "Are you me? I mean -- Merlin. Hi, I'm Merlin." The teen really liked the robes as well, wondering if he could pull off that look.

"Where did you get those? They're nice, I've just never seen anything like that sold here." Not that he would look decent in them now. He'd look goofy, and no where near as impressive as he imagined they were meant to look.

"Huh? Ohh.. ohh, right.." He figured he did look like Merlin. Well, the older version, the ones spoken of in the legends, in the few old texts back at Hogwarts. "So nice to meet you, sir. It.. it's a real honor. It truly, truly is.." He paused and took a moment to compose himself. Alright, so enough fanboying now, he was nearly tempted to kneel but resisted that impulse.

He laughed it off and added, "I guess I could be. I mean, I probably look the part, right? But I'm actually Albus Dumbledore. He was powerful and wise. And as to the robes, I.. just bought some in a shop and used spells to charm them." He offered his hand in greeting. "Scorpius Malfoy. And.. err, what is your costume? I'm guessing it's either a spirit or a flour man."

"Sir? Oh no, Not sir. Just Merlin is fine." It made him uncomfortable being spoken to as if he were the mythical figure most knew him as. Even if it was impressive if it meant people might pretend to be him in the future. He wondered if someone would dress as Arthur, it would be entertaining at least.

"Dumbledore? Oh! Are you from Severus' world?" Merlin would have to remember to visit Severus soon, now that he thought about it. The potions master didn't seem very happy lately, and Merlin quite liked him. He was always excited to get to meet other sorcerers though, and especially someone nearer his age as well. He'd never had friends back home who knew magic.

"Good to meet you, Scorpius!" Shaking hands, he grinned and nodded slightly. "I am supposed to be a ghost. That's what the lady in the shop said."

"Yes, I am!" Scorpius said with a grin. So, Merling knew Severus Snape as well. This was just really cool. "I'm the son of Draco Malfoy, who would be Sev's sort of... godson, I guess."

He shook the hand then. "Nice to meet you too. Ghosts.. well, I've sen quite a few back at Hogwarts. They're very interesting. So, you know Snape. Do you also know Harry? Or my best friend Al?"

Draco Malfoy. Wasn't that the rotten boy from the books? He'd only read the first one, figuring the rest he ought to learn from the people themselves if they wanted to tell him. Still, Scorpius seemed very nice. The boy was very young in the first book as well, there was no telling how he grew up to be.

"I've seen a dead man brought back to life, but never a ghost. I would love to meet some like they had in Hogwarts one day." He wondered if he would meet a ghost. It seemed likely considering all manner of things they ran into back home.

"I've spoken to Harry, but I didn't actually meet him yet. His friend Ron was my room mate for a while. I liked him. I don't think I've seen anyone named Al yet though."

"Resurrection?" Scorpius asked, both surprised and curious. "I've never seen that happen. I think you'd love anything about Hogwarts, too.. not just the ghosts. There's so many books on magic there. Heh, imagine being a student there."

Although, if they all saw Merlin in that school, most of them might either faint or swoon, it'd possibly be twice the fanclub that Harry once had. "Al is... Harry's son. It's interesting, he and my father didn't get along, but me and Al really do. Plus we're both in Slytherin with Rose Weaseley."

"Yes, there was a sorceress who did it. It was more of a corpse moving around and killing people, not actually being alive, thinking and breathing like we are." Merlin shrugged. He was awful at explaining things like that from his world, he'd learned that much during his chats with Severus. He usually ended up rambling.

"I would love to see Hogwarts. A school that teaches magic -- I have to learn it on my own usually. Sorcery is a crime back in Camelot." He was a little envious. A lot, actually. Imagining a place where he was able to be honest about his abilities, where people could teach him how to use them, and what could be done...Instead of hiding, and relying on a single magic book and the dragon to learn from.

"I'm sure I'll meet him at some point, and it's nice that you've got a friend here with you. Is Harry still here? I haven't heard much from him since Ron disappeared."

"Ohh.. so more like a zombie then," he said with a nod. Raising the dead seemed like quite the nasty business. "We call them Inferi, where I'm from. Not something to meet in a dark alley. Or a cave."

He paused then. "Oh, of course.. wasn't that the Dark Ages? I heard it was very strict. Still can't do magic in front of muggle now either, though, or the Ministry gets the memory charms set. Lots of red tape. But as to the school.. it's all very open to practicing."

He smiled, looking around for a moment. He didn't see anyone that looked like Harry. "He might. I haven't actually met him in person.. but I'm sure Harry is around somewhere." He paused. "I do wonder, though, about.. Arthur, was he ever called Wart? Was there ever a knight named Kay?"

"Yes, I guess." He shrugged. The black knight had been unpleasant; zombie, inferi, whatever you called it made little difference. The idea that it occurred often enough to give them a special name, however, worried Merlin slightly about the people that would come to use magic by his time.

"Dark Ages?" It wasn't called that so far as he knew, but then he'd been living it not reading from a text book. "Uther banned the use of magic ages back. It used to be that you could use magic freely, but people abused their power." That's what he'd been told anyways. The ban on magic had been put in place before he was born.

Merlin couldn't help the great laugh escaping him at the question of Arthur and being called Wart. He shook his head though. "No, and he didn't appreciate that movie as much as I did. I wouldn't go calling him that either. Um -- Knights...I think there was one named Kay. Arthur would know, I'm not sure. I liked Sir Leon, he was nicer then the rest of them."

	She spotted him from across the room without missing a beat. Eagerly she headed his way heart beating faster with every step. He had made her like her insides warm and thick. Reaching his side she beamed a smile his way and pecked his cheeck gently. Reaching for his hand she whispered "I really do love you, and your costume is soo cute!" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Scorpius smiled when he noticed his... girfriend? Was that what she was to him now? He sort of hoped so. Especially since both found out they were loving each other. He held her and and grinned, then gestured around. "Aww, thanks. I'm Dumbledore, the former headmaster at my old school. He was one of the most powerful good wizards that anyone knew in my world."

She gasped as she felt him hold her, it felt so good to her that she couldn't help it. I know this is different but maybe I can not mess this up. Bree flashed a sexy smile pressing her body closer to him so nothing could pull them apart. "I think it's a cute costume, really fits you." She thought about how she should have ran when he told her the truth about him but she just couldn't abandon him.

"I'm a playboy bunny, a group of girls who post calanders, and make adult films." The costume fit her showing off every curve she had, it was used to get guys attention. Looking across the room she felt proud for the first time so turning she sung "Happy Halloween."

"Ohh.." He felt good when she pressed close and firmly to himself like that. He almost wanted to take her back to his room right now. But.. not now, they had a party to attend here.

"I've heard about those. The calenders, at least. And the films, moving pictures? I bet it's really naughty." He smiled, looking at her costume. "Thanks, and a nice Halloween to you too. Damn.. you really do look hot in that."

A feeling came over her with the way he spoke to her. Made her proud to be hot, even if she was the only one knowing how she kept the weight off. Her body was attentive to his every move.

"Yes moving pictures, well they are called movies in my world. It's a lot of fun I heard." She looked over his costume one last time and smiled "I guess Halloween is the one time people can show who they really are without questions." She kissed him needfully to make sure he was really there at her side. If you blow this, it will be the end of everything The crank in her system was sending her into over drive she could feel everything. Bitting her lip she tried to hide the jittery hot feelings and press on with the party.
