Fourteen Shades - AU HP RPG

[At about 10pm on the fourth night, for no discernible reason, the monsters retreat from the castle and back into the woods. The village is entirely silent by 1030 and they show no signs of coming back down. The twins know they need to address the village and say something, even if they aren't sure what. Maybe there aren't even any right words. They do a walk of the village to confirm that it is, in fact, empty of monsters for the moment, and then go to the community center, where most villagers seem to be gathered.

This is meant to be IC/OOC! And uh... pretend there's a hole in the ceiling of the community center where you can see the night sky.]

But when George looked out at the scene in front of him, with people lying around sick, injured, exhausted, terrified, or some combination of the above, words failed him. There was nothing he could say. He bit his lip a few times as he tried to find words, but each time he thought he had something, a little voice in the back of his head told him that the words weren't good enough. He was no scholar. He was no writer. He didn't feel like a leader.

Fred wasn't doing any better than his brother. He was steel-faced, his arms folded across his chest. It was such an unnatural look for him, stiff and hesitant, but it was all that he felt right now. And like George, he knew that nothing he said was going to be enough to -- be whatever it needed to be. He didn't know what to think, or what to do. So much had happened so quickly. They didn't have any answers. They didn't have anything.

But there was one thing that they both felt needed to be done. Raising their wands, they held them up like candles towards the sky, much like they had all done years ago upon the death of Headmaster Dumbledore.

Draco and Fleur faced quite a few crazy things in the village together. After all, they were some of "The Originals" (as he dubbed them) in the town. It was crazy to think he had been pulled in after the residents of Lockewood overthrew Rita Skeeter, but Draco was glad for it. He may not have been an invited guest, only brought in by accidental magic, but he thought he made good on the chance the twins gave him. Case in point? When craziness filled the town in the first months, Draco always hid. Recently? Well, he stepped up. However, as night fell and the coldness overtook their small village, Draco realized there was little left to be done until morning came. The odd sounds bothered him, but he wasn't about to head out unless absolutely needed. He had set wards and barrier charms the best he could; everything else would need to wait until morning. It didn't seem safe to venture out at night. Bad things happened in dark forests. He should know.

Once he made sure his loved ones were safe, as warm as they could be, and accounted for, he grabbed an extra blanket and moved toward Fleur. "Far cry from the beach," he lamented as he scooted next to her. Without asking, he dropped the blanket over both of them.

( day 02. )

This week sets the stage for the terror our brave villagers will face in a few short days.

→ Storms will plague the town sporadically through the day and night.
→ The sun goes into hiding at random intervals.
→ Small tremors pulse through the ground, but villagers question what they feel because the movement is so tiny.
→ There is a general foreboding feeling settling.
