//Ironically, I thought of this thread idea days ago, and it's coincidental that it happens to be kind of like what the PM was about...lol//
Jake Tripp and Aaron Martin were in the Forbidden Forest. Aaron was training his dragon, Fireball. Or at least he was supposed to be. Instead he was arguing with Jake. "Look, Jake. I'm sorry, but I can't do that for you. That's just not how things work for me..." Aaron was saying simply. "Oh, I see. I help you every chance I get and when I ask for a little in return, suddenly you're not so friendly anymore, huh?" Jake asked harshly. Aaron blinked. "Jake, I refuse to do that. If I could help with something smaller, I would, but..." Aaron trailed off.

(( Lol. Which part of the pm? ))
The redhead peered from behind a large tree trunk. She leaned against the tree, crossing her arms. "What is the married couple talking about now?"she mumbled, impatiently, as she watched the argument progress. Natalie shook her head and stood up properly, brushing herself off. She cautiously walked towards Jake and Aaron, slowly, arms held out in front of her. It looked very idiotic.

//The part about my friend who moved...//
Neither of them seemed to notice the arrival of the red-head. "I don't need you for anything else. Just do this and I won't have to hurt you," Jake said menacingly. Aaron blinked, stunned. "Jake, what the hell is wrong with you? You're threatening me...about this? Why do you even want to do it?" He asked. Jake's eyes flashed dangerously. "That's MY business, and my business only!" Jake said. "Dragon shit," Aaron spat, and Fireball growled. Aaron ignored him. "Well you can forget my help," Aaron said, turning away.
Suddenly the wind picked up and rushed toward Aaron, lifting him off the ground and throwing him lightly at a tree. Aaron smacked into it with a thud and fell to the ground. He quickly jumped up and pointed his wand at Jake. "Petrificus Totallus!" A white stream of light left his wand and headed for Jake, but missed him as Jake moved to the side.

The redhead watched as the scene unfolded in front of her. She rolled her eyes and gave a sigh. "Boys,"she mumbled, under her breath. Slipping her hand into her pocket, Natalie grabbed two small objects and pulled it out. In her hand were two tiny marble-like balls. Each ball was see-through and filled half-way with crystal clear water. As inconspicously has possible, Natalie rolled the two marble balls near the vicinity of Jake and Aaron. The balls continued to roll, picking up the speed with each revolution. Eventually, the balls lightly tapped at the feet of Jake and Aaron. It began to change from a shiny see-through ball to a furious blood red color.

Aaron felt something hit his foot and looked down to see a ball filled with what looked like blood. "Holy Merlin's socks..." He muttered, jumping back away from the marble. ((LOL! I'm going to start saying that from now on: 'Holy Merlin's socks!'))
Jake, on the other hand, didn't pay the slightest attention to the arrival of the marble. "Sectumsempra!" He said, and suddenly a deep gash appeared on Aaron's left arm. That got his attention. "What the bloody hell is wrong with you?" Aaron asked loudly, pointing his wand at Jake and sending a Leg-Locker Hex, which Jake easily dodged.

The small marble balls began to roll side to side. A small *pop* was heard and the balls enlarged. The humongous balls rolled towards Aaron and Jake, threatening to entrap them inside. Another *pop* was heard and a small remote control appeared in Natalie's hands. "Guys.. Please don't make me do this. It's going to look extremely idiotic,"she pleaded, looking at the both of them. She looked down at the remote control. There were two controllers labeled 'Bubble A' and ;Bubble B'. Colorful buttons lit up on the controller with all sorts of commands on them.

Aaron backed away from the bubble. "OK, I'm done..." he said audibly to Natalie, putting his wand in his pocket and showing her the palms of his hands as proof that he wasn't threatening anyone.
Jake saw his opportunity. "Imperio!" He yelled, and suddenly Aaron went rigid, stiff as a board. You could see his eyes focus and un-focus as he fought against the Unforgivable Curse. After a few seconds, he relaxed, the mental battle over...he lost.
Jake sent Aaron a command mentally, and Aaron removed the wand from his pocket again, and pointed it at Natalie.

Natalie froze at the sight of the wand. Her face began to pale and she felt the color began to drain from her face. She narrowed her eyes at Jake. "What the bloody hell do you think you're doing?!"shouted Natalie, angrily. Her hands shook the controller. "WHAT THE SMEG WAS WITH THAT CURSE?! YOU KNOW BETTER THAN TO USE AN UNFORGIVABLE. HAVE YOU GONE MAD?!"she yelled, glancing at Aaron, then back at Jake.

"No, I haven't gone mad. You're only mad if you think Unforgivables are worth getting upset about," Jake spat at Natalie. "Or if you date a Weasley," he added spitefully. "So, I guess you're right, I am mad."
Aaron suddenly lunged at Jake, having broken away from the curse at least temporarily. Jake saw him coming and sent a blast of wind at him. Aaron didn't even reach the ground before he was thrown backwards into a tree. There was a loud crack, and it wasn't the tree that made it. Aaron let out a soft groan as he painfully slid to the ground.
"Deja vu, eh Aaron?" Jake smirked, referring to the incident with Colby in the forest.

"AARON!"Natalie screamed, running as fast as she could to Aaron. She dropped to her knees and quickly checked for a pulse. Good. He's still alive. She gave a sigh of relief and quickly turned around, glaring at Jake. "What the hell, Jake? What the hell?!"she spat, venemously. Natalie stood up, shaking. The controller laid by her feet. Her hands were balled up into fists. "What the bloody smegging hell?"she repeated, her voice shaking.

"Weasley with a temper...and a swearing list that two words long, obviously," Jake rolled his eyes. "And what's with the bubbles? I mean, come on, couldn't you think of something a little better than BUBBLES?" he asked, pointing his wand at Natalie. "Accio controller," he said, and it flew at him. He reached his hand out as if to grab it, but then put it down, letting the controller fly into a nearby tree. "Oops..." he smirked.

The corners of her mouth twitched upwards as if she were suppressing a smile. "Two things, honey. Numero uno,"she held her index finger up. "Do you honestly believe my swear list is two words long? You have GOT to be kidding me,"her facial expressions darkened. "I grew up with Kat, Lily, James, my Da and Uncle George. I know a hell of a lot more than you do."
"Number two,"she held another finger up. "Would I do something so idiotic as to just come with one controller? Nu-uh,"Natalie snapped her fingers and another controller appeared in the air, levitating just above her hand. "And would I just use Bubbles to scare the big bad Jake-y Wakey awake?"She scoffed. "As if. I really don't want to do it Jake,"her eyes turned pleading. "Please don't make me."

"Ooh, I'm scared now. The wittle red-head is gonna hurt me with the big bad bubble!" Jake scoffed. "And then she's going to use the big bad curse words she learned at family reunions! I'm shaking!" Jake said sarcastically. "Do you have anything better than Martin over there?" He asked, indicating Aaron Martin. "What was his? 'Holy Merlin's socks'? What kind of swear is that?" He rolled his eyes, daring Natalie to try to stop him.

Natalie raised an eyebrow and gave a shrug. A small smirk played on her lips. "As you wish Master,"she said sarcastically. She curtsied and pressed two buttons and pushed the controller in Jake's direction. The humongous ball hurled rapidly towards Jake, sending beams of red Stunning spell lights straight at him. The other ball meant for Aaron hurled towards Jake in the other direction.

Jake sent up a Protego shield, blocking the stunning spells. ((LOL! I almost said, 'shunning spells'.)) A wind started beneath his feet and he was lifted about six feet off the ground, just above the bubbles. Yawning, Jake looked at Natalie. "That's all? I could do that one-handed..." he said. "Or can you?" he suddenly blurted out, as if talking to himself. Without warning, Jake fell out of the air and onto (or is it into?) a bubble.

(( Into. xD ))
Natalie smirked and pressed another round button on the control. The bubble Jake had fallen into seemed to gloss over. She stepped forward casually and knocked on the bubble. "Jake, dear. Are you willing to forfeit now?"she asked, sweetly. She leaned against the bubble with her back to Jake. Natalie looked at her nails, pretending to be preoccupied. "You can't really escape from it y'know,"she continued. "It's apparation-proof, unbreakable, elemental-proof, unburnable. and all other stuff proof. "Da made sure of that."

Jake laughed maniacally for a few seconds, and then stopped. His eyes grew wide for a moment before he slumped to the bottom of the bubble, unmoving. Eventually, he stirred slowly, clutching his head. "Migraine..." he muttered, not opening his eyes yet. When he did, he remembered where he was. "Oh dear Merlin..." he said. "Natalie! Is Aaron...OK?" he asked, still holding his head in his hands as he stood up and leaned on the wall of the bubble closest to Natalie, facing her. He couldn't bring himself to say 'dead' or 'alive' or anything blunt like that. From where he was standing, he couldn't see for himself Aaron's condition.

"He's still alive if that's what you're aiming at,"replied Natalie coldly. She leaned forward and straightened herself. Walking forward to Aaron, she knelt down again and shook him lightly. "Aaron?"she spoke lightly, shaking him harder. "Aaron, can you hear me?"

Aaron stirred a bit at the sound of the voice. He opened his eyes a little, and then all the way. He started to sit up, but immediately fell back to the ground, groaning.
"Aaron? Aaron, are you all right?" Jake asked from the bubble. "Aaron?"
Aaron looked at Natalie, ignoring Jake. "W-what happened?" he asked. It was one of those things he thought he would never say, and only people in movies said it, but it was the question he wanted answered.

Natalie cast a grim smile at Aaron. "Well, I guess you would already know this whole part. But, Jake sent you flying into this tree. Something cracked and you were unconscious. Thank goodness you're still alive,"she added, just loudly enough so that Jake could hear. "I don't think you should move, but,"Natalie reached into her pocket, pulling out a small vile of a gold-colored potion. "Take a sip of this. It should help you, until we take you to a real doctor,"she added, handing him the vile.

Aaron accepted the vial and drank the potion inside. "Hmm...tastes kind of like butterbeer..." he said, smiling grimly.
Jake heard heard Aaron's voice and yelled, "Aaron! I'm sorry, I really didn't mean to! I can explain!..." he said rapidly. "Shut up, Tripp!" Aaron spat venomously. Jake immediately stopped talking and leaned back on the bubble.

Natalie grinned widely. "Nice. It's supposed to,"she said, casually. Natalie reached for the vial and shoved it back into her pocket. Her eyes wandered towards Jake, then back to Aaron. Eyebrows raised, she asked,"So. Mind telling me what was going on between you and Mr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde o'er there?"

"He wanted me to steal him some potion ingredients from the Ministry...and I said no...and that's pretty much when you came..." Aaron explained slowly, trying not to leave anything out.
"Listen, I can explain, Natalie!" Jake protested. He had given up on trying to convince Aaron and had moved on to the Weasley.

Natalie raised an eyebrow, now slowly turning to face Jake. "Oh really?"she said, icily. Natalie leaned against the tree Aaron was leaning on. "This should be interesting,"she continued, crossing her arms across her chest.

"Really, it wasn't me! It was Lagorovitch, I don't know how, but he just took control, and I don't think it was Imperio, but I couldn't stop it..." Jake rambled.
"What, are you the new Harry Potter?" Aaron asked scornfully. Jake almost responded, but stopped. "No, it couldn't be like tha-, I mean, just because I have the same scar-, it doesn't mean anything..." Jake stuttered.
