Characters: Kira, Dorcas, Remus, Sirius, and soon open to all attending Narcissa's birthday!!!
Setting: BACKDATED | Friday, October 29th | 8:45 P.M. | The hourglasses, proceeds to the stairs leading to the dungeon, and then the Slytherin common room!
Content: NSFW | likely to be issues with Slytherins!
Summary: Dorcas is going to crash Narcissa's birthday party to determine once and for all whether or not she is a true friend.
Status: Incomplete

Kira was beyond riled up over the recent discovery her mate Dorcas wasn't invited to Narcissa's self-hosted birthday bash. Though she had little desire to help her mate kindle this risky friendship, Kira was willing to bet her right hand Narcissa had intentionally left Dorcas off the guest list. If that was the case, Dorcas had every right to know why. Kira wouldn't have been able to live with herself had she known about this all along and not warned Dorcas of the entire thing, particularly after her mate had opened up to her about concerns regarding the friendship with the Slytherin girl.

Deciding her best bet was to proposition reinforcements, Kira exchanged some friendly words with Sirius to make sure he was on board. Of course, that was hardly necessary considering he tended to jump at any occasion to make Slytherins uncomfortable. Still she figured she owed it to him considering it was his birthday weekend. Remus was much easier to persuade, possibly because he fancied Dorcas but maybe slightly owing to his own friendship with Kira. Either way, she had everyone she needed on her side. All that remained was getting into the snake pit.

Although Kira had planned on wearing her Ravenclaw robes to further the divide between her and the Slytherins, she decided to settle with a loose dress and some beige sandals. Such was her typical weekend attire when the girl actually put forth the effort, and this evening she had no intention of being the cause of further embarrassment on Dorcas' behalf. Though Kira was certain there was no pleasing a Slytherin, because said students were already far too pleased with themselves to take anyone else into consideration, she figured it probably wouldn't kill her to show her mate she cared enough to look the part. That would make this little plan of theirs seem less like a crashing, more like inviting themselves along for the ride. Anyone with half a brain would probably figure it out, though.

True to her word, Kira met up with Dorcas at the hourglasses at half eight. After a bit of encouragement and some tight hugs, she linked her arm with Dorcas to guide her toward the stairs leading down to the dungeons. It was there the girls would hopefully find Sirius and Remus waiting, and they could receive further instruction. "No matter what happens tonight, you promise me you won't let them bring you down, Cassie. You hold your head high," she added, giving her friend a side-smile as they approached the stairs.

To say Kira was proud of her mate was an understatement at this point. It was nights like these there was no doubt why Dorcas had made it into the noble House of Godric Gryffindor. Kira always found herself attracted to the courageous personalities, and for good reason. They challenged her to think outside her perfect world of reason and logic, to do the bold and unexplainable. Things like this, to be exact! Kira released her hold on Dorcas and watched patiently as hugs were exchanged, remotely surprised to receive the hug from Sirius. Sure, they were mates, but their interactions were typically fiery at best. Tonight they were united against a common rival, though, and Kira figured that meant they could forgo the usual nonsense and get down to business. Returning the embrace with a smile, she thanked him and Remus for turning up. She figured they would considering how juicy the opportunity, but even so, it meant an extra bout of strength to the girls. Walking into the serpents lair with that extra bit of oomph on their side was promising. Kira knew no matter what happened, they'd be able to handle it for the most part, outnumbered or not.

After Sirius had reassured Dorcas, Kira wrapped her arm around his. She gave a glance over her shoulder to Remus and Dorcas, as if to say she expected them to follow suit, prior to being led down to the dungeons. Though she would ever deny it, she couldn't hide the truth from herself. There was something comforting in having Sirius by her side through this entire thing. The two talked casually amongst themselves, Kira taking his lead when it came to giving the other two a bit of space. It wasn't until they reached the alleged Slytherin common room that she felt Sirius break away.

It was her instinct to wrap her arms around her torso, but Kira fought the urge. She didn't want now to be the time she showed any signs of concern, not in front of Dorcas. Turning to face her best mate, Kira gave her a quick wink before smoothing her hands over her dress and walking through the passageway. Though she was rather impressed by the ornate green decor, Kira walked into the common room as if she owned the place. She didn't act like someone who'd come to crash a party, but rather like she belonged precisely where she was. Rather than continue to the couches, she waited for the others prior to taking her next step. She thought better than to try to link arms with Sirius again, knowing well enough the boys were their best bet should any hexes be hurled their direction. Occupying their arms would've meant a slower reaction, at least that was her rationalization at the moment. Instead Kira linked arms with Dorcas, resting her other hand over the girl's arm as if to reassure her. With a smile, she then turned to face the Slytherins.

Many of them didn't notice the group at first, but as Kira led them further into the common room, a few began to talk in rather loud whispers about the out of place students. Kira smirked at an underclassmen as he gawked, shifting her eyes back to Sirius prior to speaking to Dorcas again. "Did you bring the gift, love?" she questioned her mate, keeping her eyes fixed on the Slytherins as they moved throughout the crowd. Some moved out of the way, others warranted a nudge from Kira's shoulder. Before they knew it, they'd made it to the refreshments and a table stocked full of gifts.

Following Sirius' and Kira's lead, she took Remus' arm in hers, not even thinking about anything in particular at that point. She forced another smile at Remus and Sirius, nodding her head slightly, trying to believe their words. Though, as they reached their destination a thousands thoughts started to cloud her mind. Things were going to happen behind that wall that she may or may not want to take back. Confronting Narcissa would either mean the end of their friendship or making it stronger, and the sudden dread in her stomach told her she wasn't sure if she wanted the former or the latter. And even if it did happen to be the former, she'd put on an exterior to reassure her friends that she was okay, even if she wasn't. As much as she'd like to believe she wouldn't let Narcissa get to her, it was impossible for the thought not to slip in her mind. She'd been friends with the girl since fourth year, and she held the friendship rather highly, so whatever was in store for her was going to be hard.

Dorcas caught Kira's wink, offering her a reassuring smile. Despite her worries, Dorcas knew she could handle herself, besides, if Narcissa was the friend she thought she was, she knew she wouldn't let things get to out of hand. She followed Kira into the passage way, dropping Remus' arm, preparing herself for whatever may happen. Upon entering the common room, she totally disregarded the decor which was entirely new to her and focused her eyes on the party guests. Her eyebrows creased as she grew a little angry, realising that some of the people present were hardly friends with Narcissa, they were barely acquaintances. She felt Kira link arms with her, which brought her back to reality and the reassurance that she had friends with her.

As they moved further into the crowd, Dorcas' eyes fell on a few faces. They'd been there barely a minute and they'd already ruffled feathers. She glanced back at Remus before concentrating on the path in front of her as they weaved in and out of the crowd. Dorcas nodded, rather embarrassed that while she considered Narcissa important enough to purchase a gift, she obviously didn't think Dorcas was important enough to invite to her party. "Yes." She said in a rather hushed tone as she uncovered the gift from under her jacket. She'd gotten her a lovely and mystical dragon charm to add to the charm bracelet that she noticed she seemed to wear frequently. It may have not been as extravagant as the other gifts, but at least it was something she would love. Her eyes fell on the table in front of them before she quickly turned to her mate. "Spotted her yet? I'd rather give it to her personally, if you know what I mean." She declared, rather proudly, fully knowing what she wanted to say to Narcissa. She glanced around the room, her eyes narrowing at the various groups scattered around the common room, hoping she'd spot the blonde sooner rather than later.
