Magical Era - Judas&Yok
 

Transfer students are very rare in Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. In fact, there hasn't been one in at least half a century which is understandable considering that at the time students were turning into stone and one was killed. Who would transfer to there after that? But that threat is no longer present in the school and so, one person is willing/stupid enough to transfer from their school to Hogwarts. Good luck with that.

Vincent is the one who is willing to transfer. He was originally a student in America's Salem school....which is predominantly females like the school in France which is part of his reason, once he found out he could, for transferring to Hogwarts. There are some differences between the schools, such as the American school doesn't use wands and as such....you're in school for a lot longer learning to control the magic without something to channel it through.

He's not a scrawny little boy, he's a bit squishy in place. He has light brown hair that's currently tied back, and yellow/amber eyes. He's currently doing the fun thing of wander around the castle and get lost! Maybe he'll find his way back....someday.....or maybe not.

Hogwarts, a relatively large school in the middle of a forested area in North Scotland, the school, built over seven hundred years ago is one of the biggest in a european state, but has only ever received students from island of Ireland, Isle of Man, Wales, Scotland and England. Hogwarts has gone through a number of horrific events in its life-time. But even with the effects people still attended the school...no matter what.
Alexander is one of those students, being born in a small Viking village on the west coast of the island, he was suggested to attend the local witchcraft college located on a abandoned island but he had gone to Hogwarts instead.
He had witnessed the second Wizarding War take place while attending his first year and witnessed everything else that happened afterwords. He is now attending his sixth year of Hogwarts. Alexander was a tall male, having a long head of hair, a curse placed on him as a child makes his hair change to his mood, which at the moment was brown, telling he was calm. His skin was normal coloured but looked slightly pale, his body build was small but he had some muscle.

Alexander was currently in an old abandoned classroom, the door was wide open, Alexander was leaning against an old crumbled desk, waving his wand slightly in the air, repeating the word "Incendio" , his wand was facing a hanging object that held several tall candles, he wanted to lighten up the place and Incendio produces fire.

Vincent does, in fact, have a wand due to it being one of the requirements of the school. Since they teach no other way, he had to get one. In a way he prefers the American way, but he also knows that this is probably a safer way to do things. It, hopefully, can't do as much damage when something goes wrong compared to the America way.

And during his exploration of the school, he hears something coming from a classroom. As a person who doesn't exercise caution when he's alone, he has to check it out. So he sees the other person around trying to do....something. "Uh....what're you trying to do over there?" He knows nothing about wand type magic. He never had to learn, but soon enough he will be.

As Alex lights the candles and unawarely burns alive several insects like lighting the candles he hears a new voice, looking over he spotted a very unfamiliar face, the question that he asked made Alex laugh slightly before he placed his wand into his other hand, the accent was different from other student accents...he must be a tranferr student.
" I'm using the Incendio spell to light the candles...this room hasn't been used since the year of the Second Wizarding War..." Alex told him as he recalled during Potion Class that a Demonater attacked the students when the school was attacked.
After a second he turned back to hanging object and pointed his wand at it before saying "Lumos"and than a stream of light flung out of it. He could see the candles beginning to light and the burnt insects, "Nox" He said then the stream of light cancelled itself.

Alexander turned to the other male, "I'm guessing your a transferr student? " Alex asked as he twiddled with his wand,

"Well..didn't know that one." Vincent know....a spell or two....maybe....possibly. Which means he's going to be completely lost when classes start. America did the same thing in the Second Wizarding War that it did in WWII...sit back and leave everything alone. It's the you leave us alone and we leave you alone method....except it sort of worked this time, but not due to the fact that Voldemort would've never turned his sights to America. "Yeah....I'm a transfer student....and I don't understand why people use wands..." The last part is mumbled a bit. Why don't they teach both in places? They both have their uses obviously. It's easier to aim with a wand, but there are words to know to go with it.

Alexander stared at the other for a moment, he had heard the mumble, Alexander sighed slightly he got a little bit angry now, you could tell from his hair quickly changing its colour to a soft red, " We use wands for control...but some spells can be used without a wand...but they are heavily in decline and hardly anyone in Magical Europe knows how to do magic without a wand..." Alexander explained to the male as his hair began to return to his blueish colour.
Alexander got off of the desk, a small creak could be heard before the entire desk collasped before his eyes. Alex sighed before pointing his wand at the pile of rubble, "Reparo..." he said as the pieces of rubble connected together and formed the desk again. "I'm Alexander Raven...of Gryfindor...how about you?" He asked

Vincent doesn't have anything against wands except a preference even though some in America do have things against it. Only because they see having to use a wand...as future generations having less self control...and that their magic may be getting weaker due to needing an instrument to focus the magic to be strong enough. Which Vincent doesn't buy into that really.

He just lifts an eyebrow at the hair changing colors things. "You have interesting hair by the way." He hasn't seen anyone whose hair could change colors like that....but maybe he's just oblivious. "I'm Vincent Campbell....we also don't have.....houses? in America.." He shrugs a bit. He knows they have this competition thing with the houses. It's just a random comment about a difference. "But this school is bigger." So maybe there needs to be a bit more separation.

Alex looked at the other, raising his eyebrow for a second before chuckling, " I have a condition called Metamorphmagus...I can basically change my appearance...but only hair at this moment..." Alex told the male with a smile before hearing the other's name, "Please to meet you Vincent..." Alex said with a smile before looking around. Alex placed his wand away, in the legging part of his boots before looking at Vincent.

[[Bad post]]

"Still makes for interesting hair." It's only the truth. A lot of abilities are rare in America, but there are many of them. Many rare abilities and mixes of races due to the way America is. It's for those who want to get away from the persecution that their races may be facing...though some are hard to hide from muggle eyes. "Nice to meet you....soooo.....where are we exactly?" He chuckles a bit. He was just kind of wandering around hoping that he wouldn't get lost.....or find someone who would help him get unlost.

Alexander looked at Vincent for a moment before chuckling slightly at him. The hair thing may be interesting for Vincent but it was slightly annoying for Alex, his hair changed colour depending on his mood, which wasn't the bed thing to have when you are trying to hide something...it just ends up being a royal pain.
When Vincent asked where they were Alex chuckled slightly before speaking, " This is the fifth floor corridor...also known as Abandoned Walkway..." Alex told Vincent as he looked at him, "Want me to take you to a more populated place?" He offered.

Vincent doesn't know that part to the hair thing so he doesn't see the annoyance. He thinks it would be pretty cool to change hair color like that, but he's biased a bit. But it changing due to moods can be a good thing if someone knows and is kind of oblivious to subtle clues. Then they won't mess up and all so much. "Aaaaaand...why is this the abandoned walkway?" He's hoping it isn't some horribly story or something. He doens't need nightmares. "Ah...yeah...more populated would be nice..." The castle is creepy in these abandoned walkways, but he also guesses that the Salem school also has its creepy parts too.

Alex looked at the other for a few seconds, chuckling slightly before speaking, " It is abandoned because this is where the Great Fire Of Hogwarts started during the war...some blaze..." Alex explained to the male with a smile, before he went and led the other out of the classroom and into the corridor, even the glass windows were broken. Alex looked to his left and to his right before he began to walk towards a dead end...but at the dead end was a painting, a painting of Nymphadora Tonks, a deceased member of the Order of the phoniex.When they get to the portrait Alex said " Acieo Incendio ", that was the password which opened the portrait up to show a busy corridor. "Populated area here we are..." he said with a chuckle.

"We don't focus much on history or current events really." They're essentially isolated in America being taught things to keep their version of magic alive in the world. "And since he never acted against America...." He shrugs a bit. "He wasn't talked about or anything..." Except those who left Europe to escape from him. "That's cheating." He didn't end up coming down there from the painting. "That doesn't count." He snorts a bit. "Our campus....is more....flat..." Like there are buildings with not as many floors. Kind of like a university campus. Everything is sectioned off into their building.

Alex chuckled slightly as he listened to Vincent, " Everyone takes Portrait Routes once in a while..." He said to him before he heard a large bell noise come from the ceiling, it was the new bell tower announcing dinner was about to begin. Alex smiled before looking at Vincent, " It is dinner time...time to head to the great hall..." Alex said as he turned towards two gigantic doors and walked into a large room, four long tables, Alex sectioned off onto his table.

"It's still cheating." Vincent is smiling a bit and chuckles a bit. He just looks up at the bell. "Well, you just answered the question I was thinking of." His stomach gurgles. There is a bit of a time difference between the two countries which means his eating schedule has been all messed up now. He just follows Alex and sits next to him, looking around at all the people. "There's a lot of students here...." Salem is a lot smaller than this school apparently. A hell of a lot smaller.

(It friggin logged me out D: )

Alex chuckled slightly as Vincent followed him into the great hall and sat beside him, Alex looked over before he smiled at his friends that were sitting across from him, most were female but one or two were male. Alex's hair went aslight blonde now as from the hyperness he had inside him. Alex took out his wand and placed the tip against the area where his voice box would be, mumbling a few words he began to speak to them...in an american accent, he used a spell to gain the native accent. "Guys...This is Vincent...the new transferre from America..." He said with a laugh before he cancelled the spell and looked at the others, holding his wand in his hands, they had fun.

Well, where else is he going to sit? It isn't like Vincent knows anyone else in this entire school. And he isn't extremely social or anything. He just can't help but watch the color change. It's interesting to him. He just lifts an eyebrow watching/listening to Alex before shaking his head a bit, but doesn't say anything. He wonders how some would react to his brand of magic. There are other schools in America. They are also small, but most do teach with some type of instrument...be that a staff or a wand.

(I'm sorry -brain go blah-)

Alex looked around slightly before he heard a loud clapping noise and turned towards the main alter, it was the head mistress, Professeur Mongonigal. Alex listened to what she was saying on welcoming the new students and the new transferr student from a school called Salem College, so that is the school he went to...Alex thought to himself as he listened to the teacher before all the tables were covered in food, from chicken to turkey, every food that you could imagine.
Alex turned to Vincent when the food appear, whispering to him, " enjoy the food..." he said to him with a smile before he went and took a laddle puumpkin soup, you could see people looking at him since pumpkin soup was one of the most hated foods in the school but Alex loved it...his taste buds were ike his hair...different.

Vincent halfway listens to what the headmistress is saying. He's always had a problem paying full attention in school or classes. "thank you." He sees the other people staring and stuff about the food Alex is getting. "Why are people staring? That's rude." He personally doesn't care for many soups...and he wouldn't try pumpkin soup to be truthful...but so what if Alex likes it? Everyone has at least one weird food, or something-drink, candy, etc-that they like and other people think is disgusting. Vincent essentially goes for any bird on the table. Chicken and turkey are the best though.

Alex looked over to Vincent when he asked why people were staring, leaning over after he filled his bowel he whispered to Vincent, " Pumpkin soup is very sweet...and very sour at the same times... So it is very unlikeable to most people..." he told him before he poured water into a small glass cup of his. Sipping his water he began to have his soup, taking it easy as he talked with his friends, trying to include Vincent in their chats at much as possible.

"Doesn't mean they have to stare or anything. People like what they like." Certain thing that are eaten in America probably aren't as common over here. Same goes the other way around. Vincent has never seen a scone or anything. He mainly just listens to their conversation, speaking up once in awhile and adding something to the conversation. He halfway wishes there were some deviled eggs here. Those are friggin delicious, but they have chicken and so he's happy.

After around an hour or so Dinner had ended and soon all the years were directed to their house grounds. Since Vincent was part of Alexander's house they all went together back to the common room, Alex had spent a few minutes in the common room, lighting the fire before he headed up stairs to the male bedrooms. The bedroom that held everyone was huge but everyone had equal space and everyone had a curtain to mark their space. Once in the room Alex had changed into a pj bottoms but remained shirtless...showing a slight scar that was on his arm. Alex sat on his bed, legs crossed and was talking to everyone else , while also guiding a flying paper bird around the room.

Vincent does a spell he knows. It's one of the perks of knowing magic that doesn't use a wand. He's still in the common room for now. It's like a patronus...in the fact that it is animal shaped-like a fox....but it is more like it is made out of shadows. And it runs upstairs and kind of pounces on Alex the best it can...being a fox instead of some other bigger animal. He plans on keep practicing the magic he learned in America. Even if he does, for some reason, finish out school here....it would be great if he didn't forget what he learned. It would be an advantage if something goes down.

Alex had chuckled slightly as he watched the shadow fox jump around the room. Alex smiled slightly before he aimed the paper bird into the small fire that was lit in the room. Watching the shadow fox Alex flug his wand left and right slightly, soon a shortt stream of light came out of his wand you could see the figure transform before it looked like a angry rabbit...it looked like it was gonna attack the fox, " whoops...sorry..." he said with a chuckle as he then decapitated the shadow bunnie.

The fox sure as hell wasn't expecting an angry bunny. Especially an angry bunny that wanted to attack it. Usually it works the other way around. Vincent appears in the doorway before the bunny disappears and so, the fox runs over and behind his legs. "You're afraid of bunnies? You're supposed to eat them instead." He chuckles a bit as the fox looks up at him, like it's trying to make puppy dog eyes. "But that was an evil looking bunny."

Alex laughed slightly as he watched the fox return to its master, " thats a....very special fox you got there..." he said to him with a chuckle before getting off his bed and walked towards the fox, Alex waved his wand to make a slight shadow collar on the fox and let it go, " try and tame it..." he said with a smile before he went over to a noteiceboard. All there was on there was the class scedules and one beaxbaton nude calender. Alex rolled his eyes as he checked the date before going to his bed again. " toorrow is friday...Charlie I'l be gone to my tutor for most of the day so you know what to do..." Alex told him as he laid back, his wand in hiis hand, his tutor was to help him with his magical ability

"Tame means I control it. It was never tame, believe me on that. It has its choices. Sometimes it listens. Others....it doesn't. I tell it to go pounce on someone...he's perfectly happy to do it. Go get something for me? He's never going to do that." But then again Vincent has never tried to control it. "Animals and humans are the same. You can't force either to do anything unless they're willing....or if you're willing to take away the free will they have." He just tilts his head at the mention of a tutor, but says nothing. The fox is currently sniffing around the area, exploring. He just pads over to his bed and sits down, just looking around a bit...doing essentially the same thing as the fox is....minus moving around.

Alex chuckled slightly at Vincent, " I think I get you...so no mind controlling can ever change that..."w he said with a chuckle before placing his wand down at his desk and stretched a bit in the bed, showing off the muscles that he had on his torse before grabbing a rope and began to pull it, " night everyone..." he said to everyone as he soon closed the final curtain, now all that seperated him from the rest was a curtain.

At around 5am even before the sun was out Alex had gathered a few things up as he had awooken. He had to leave to his tutor now...in London so it was best to get up early and fly out there. Alex gathered everything he needed and even made his bed before he left the school grounds, flying south towards London. He left a note on his bed saying he would be home before dinner. Oh yea he is flying on a broomstick

Before Alex can go to sleep, the fox jumps up and grabs his wand and brings it to Vincent for some ungodly reason. "Why do I need this?" The fox just sits there with the wand in its mouth. "Put it back where you got it. It isn't yours or mine." The fox puts it down on the ground and just looks back up at him. Vincent just looks at the fox flatly. It is a stare off now. He just takes the wand and puts it back where it belongs. "Night." Then he goes to sleep.

He goes through his classes for the day....pretty much sucking at anything that involves having to use a wand. Which is everything but magical creatures, herbology, and potions. He can light a fire without a wand.

After a matter of hours Alexander soon arrived back to the school campus. After the time he had spent in the business area of London City for his tutor with his ability. He went there once a week ever since second year at Hogwarts. By now it was dinner time within the school, everyone would've been in the Great Hall enjoying their dinner when Alex arrived back.
Walking alongside the corridor, his black cape covering his body but his hood down, his wand sticking out of his boot slightly and his broomstick in his other hand, he had flown from Scotland to London...and the other way around. Alex pushed opened the Great Hall door and began to walk up to his seat, he could see his friends looking at him, mainly because he was in a pissy mood...his hair was firey red.Alex sat down in his seat and placed his broomstick on the ground , looking at the others, " Got attacked by Demonaters outside Muggle Parliament building...they thought I was gonna attack the place..." He said to them with a sigh before he grabbed an apple from the fruit bowl and soon stood up again, "I'm going to the common room..." He said to them as he gathered his stuff and began to walk out of the great hall...He could feel the sneers from Sylderien but he did nothing.
Alex walked to the common room, and sat down on the couch, he needed to calm down.

Vincent doesn't know about the big mood ring called Alex's hair. But he can feel the pissiness. He's not that oblivious, yet at least. "People are stupid." And as he sees the sneers, "And douchebags too.." He sighs before getting up and heading to the common room as well. But he isn't stupid enough to go over to a pissed person, but the fox is willing to do it for him! Personally, he thinks the fox just like Alex. The fox jumps on the couch next to Alex and tries to get under his hand, trying to get Alex to pet him.

As Alex had his head back on the couch he didn't hear or see anyone come into the common room. When the fox came over to him that gave Alex a slight surprise before he saw that the fox wanted to be petted. Looking at it for a moment Alex began to rub it's head softly, " You are a brave little fox.." He said as his hair became a wave of two colours, red and blue. His mood sets were changing rapidly.

The fox licks Alex's hand a bit before getting in his lap and curling up, content with the petting. Vincent goes and sits in a chair nearby, just watching a bit. If those sneers earlier were about the tutor thing, he really doesn't see the problem. A lot of people end up needing extra help with standards in America due to them being home schooled or just because they need a different method of teaching. It's different from everyone when you're learning without an instrument to focus through. He really doesn't know what to say, so he just watches them...well....mainly Alex's hair. It's kind of entertaining to watch it change colors.

Alex watched as the fox soon curled up on his lap. Alex couldn't help but smile slightly as he petted the fox, he hasn't been this relaxed in a while. Alex then heard someone sit on a chair and turned around to spot Vincent sitting on a chair. Looking at him for a moment before he spoke, " Whats up...?" He asked Vincent as he sat there, his hair going a deep amber colour now.

As Alex looks at him, Vincent just makes a silly face. It's what he does when people just look at him and he realizes it. "Nothing....just seeing what's up with you?" Well, he could've talked about the horrible experiences of using a wand, but that's not really important to him. He'll figure it out or fail horribly. One of the two. "Your hair is almost my eye color." And it is true. He just had to point that out.

Alex just narrowed his eyes at the other male, Vincent did not know about Alex's slight temper and his mood ability so that may make the other male interested Alex guessed. After a second when Vincent commented on the hair and eye colour being the same Alex couldn't help but laughed slightly, " My hair colour changes upon my mood..." Alex told him with a small smile as he rubbed the fox, "Your fox seems to like me...why..." He said outloud...laughing slight.y

"Oooh.....It's like a big mood ring then! Except it's not as easy to take it off...." Vincent couldn't stop himself from saying that. Apparently the part of his brain that filters things....is either broken or doesn't exist. "He normally.....isn't like this so I have no clue." He shrugs a bit. "But he does like taking people's things sometimes and hiding them...he doesn't mean anything by it. He just gets bored sometimes." The fox just yips a bit, but doesn't move. He's perfectly happy staying where he is.

Alex looked at him when he mentioned mood ring but chuckled at this as well. " Not really..." Alex said as he rubbed the fox as he listened to Vincent, "OKay...he better not take any of my stuff..."He said to Vincent with a smile before looking at the Fox who moved slightly in his lap.
After a few second Alex lifted the fox up, causing a small growl to come from the fox as he placed the fox on an empty space on the couch. Alex looked at the fox as he tried to getback on his lap but Alex shooed him away before he got up from the couch and looked at Vincent, "You're one of the few that actually tried to talk to me when I am angry..." Alex said to him with a smile.
