What Dragons? [Open!]

[Deleted]

Opeli hadn’t gone home for Christmas. It was an odd feeling, being away from her large and unusual family for the holidays. But it was necessary. Whenever that whole ‘arrange marriage’ came up so did the fact that Opeli was of marrying age. Opeli, a young woman who had never experienced love, was not that interested in it either. Her father was the cause of that. Considering he divorced HOW many wives and how obsessed he was with keeping the bloodline pure. Anyway, regardless, Opeli spent the holiday alone and now, on a day when she was feeling brave, she’d decided to go to the festival. Sure, several of the activities were beyond her capabilities, but she could still look at the pretty decorations, smell and taste the amazing foods. She’d just gotten herself a nice warm pretzel when she heard the oddest sound. A roar. Like, a loud, thunderous roar from a great beast. That was odd though, wasn’t it? For a festival. Several people screamed, and Opeli’s confusion only rose. Seeing was complicated with her. She couldn’t see true motion after all, instead observing life as if it were a series of stills. Which meant she couldn’t see the dragons. Nor could she see the commotion in the crowd it had caused. She didn’t even see the person that barreled into her and knocked her onto her rump on the cold, snow covered cobblestone street. She sat there, almost daze, and for the first time in a long time, Opeli felt that familiar panic. The panic of seeing, but not seeing, of knowing things were going on around her but not being able to see them. It’d been a frequent feeling when she was a child, but it’d been years since she felt it. Since she felt so vulnerable.

@open (someone come hang out with me and just have some fun with the event!)

let's go .

Almost a week ago, Sari left Hogwarts for the Winter break as well as for her Blishwick blind date that went rather well. Spending the first few days alongside her family was somewhat fine, but there were a few gaps by the dinner table, but she didn’t really pay no mind to it. After Christmas, deciding to attend the Hogsmeade festival was a choice the Fawley made alongside her friends, but lost them halfway in as they explored all over. It left the blonde with some time for herself - something she truly didn’t mind. But when an outbreak of screams began and an unexpected roar was heard, the Fawley’s mind pushed into overkill.

Panic seemed to wash amongst the crowd, pale eyes watching as people ran in different directions, trying to find the ones they love and just to run for their own safety. She listened as children cried over the roars while other people yelled for their beloved ones names and eventually the realisation kicked in. Sari ran, in the same direction as most people, accidentally bumping into others and being bumped into herself. But when she stopped, her back pressed up against one of the stalls, Sari looked in her left direction, a familiar face in her sight. ”Opeli!” She yelled, calling for her sister who sat in the coldness of the snow.

The blonde ran over to her elder-half-sister, falling to her knees as she grabbed at her hands, attempting to pull her to her feet and begin running. ”Get up, get up, get UP!” She repeated as she yelled, pulling at her hands the entire time. She knew it would be best to get her sister out of the situation instead of panicking by her side.

@opeli & decided to throw the younger fawley at cha!

Opeli recognized her name first. IT was a rather distinctive name after all. Then, a moment later she recognized the voice. One of her sisters, not that that narrowed it down much considering how many Fawley girls there were. But thankfully Opeli's memory was the sharpest part of her, and it took only another second to know which sister it was. Sari. "Sari..!" Opeli breathed, her overwhelming relief clear despite still not being able to see her sister yet. There was a moment, when Sari kneeled in front of her and took her hands that she, if only for a moment, was still enough for Opeli to see her. To see that familiar curly blonde hair. "What is... I don't.... Right." Opeli started to speak, before her thoughts changed, tried to speak again, and then changed that thought, recognizing the urgency in Sari's voice.

Holding onto her younger sister's hands tightly, Opeli scrambled to her feet, doing her best to keep up while running... well, half blind. "Don't let go, Sari. Don't let go." She pleaded, her own urgency in her voice. If she lost hold of Sari's hand she wouldn't be able to find her.

let's go .

With Opeli responding clear and well, Sari knew her older sister would be perfectly fine understanding her yells. Pale hands in her own, the Fawley tugged at Opeli’s hands, small fingers clasping against them, tightening their grip together. ”Don’t talk! Just…Run!” She yelled over her shoulder as the two ran. When the blonde heard the pleas of her sister, she shook her head - tears rimming her eyes but were quickly blinked away, knowing she would have to be strong for both herself and her sister. ”I won’t! I promise I won’t!”

As the two ran, for Sari it felt as if time had slowed. Blue eyes captured every moment and scenario around them. Buildings that were decorated for the festival were crumbling, fires almost at every corner and the roars of the dragons flooding the skies. The blonde noticed a few brave wizards fighting against a few of the dragons, leading to Sari realising she needed to drive her sister away from the chaos - find a place that would be safe for however long this would take.

Lost in thought, Sari almost didn’t notice the falling debris but with sudden realisation and her wand in her pocket, the blonde’s free hand dug inside and with a swift movement she casted: ”Protego!” Looking back at her sister, Sari turned to her completely. ”Are you okay? Can you keep running with me?”
