The chill that seeped into her fingers caused her to let go in suprise, moreso then the voice. She looked at her hands and flexed her fingers until the numbness was gone and stared at Blayre. No... not Blayre. Cal looked into those dark orbs and knew she was looking at someone else.
Cal fisted her hands and growled darkly, crouching slightly with a harsh scowl on her face. That was it, the answer. "Whoever you are... bring Blayre back, let her go!" Her stance was threatening but she had no idea what she was supposed to do, she couldn't even try to fight this person, for fear of injuring Blayre.

"What do you suspect?" The icy voice slithered out. "She's possessed?" Demented crossed her legs and leaned forward, sliding her index finger under Calypso's chin. "She should have known better to talk with strangers." She hissed out softly.
"Blayre... This would be a bad time for her to come out." Her right hand moved with out motion towards her pocket and slowly sliding out her wand.

"You're stranger then me!" She spit out and slapped the hand away from her, it was cold and made shivers run down her spine.
Cal stood up straight looked angrily at whoever she was talking to. "And last I checked, the body belongs to whoever possesses the name. It should be her choice to come out, I don't know who or what you are, but you don't own her!"
Her mind started buzzing frantically for a moment and she swayed dizzily, putting her hand to her head and catching herself before she could stumble more then a foot. She fell to her knees and bowed her head in submission in front of this person, she had to get Blayre back.
"Please..." She spoke softly. "Please... I'll do whatever you want... just... give her back to me..." She was too out of it to realize fully what she had said.

"The body belongs to all of us." Demented replied with a slight growl. "She comes out when we allow, to protect the body that belongs to all of us." Blayre's body reached out a hand to gently guide Calypso's head upwards, so she was looking them in the face.
"You may have her back, but I must erase this incident from your mind. You are not trusted enough to suggest what you've seen here today..." The wand was drawn now, gliding gently to Calypso's temple.
"Will you cooperate?"

Her head swung slightly as she spoke, her mind still confused. "Doing something... bad to Blayre... No!" She grabbed the wrist holding the wand to her head and moved it as she came to.
She glared defiantly at the person before her, gaze unwavering. "I won't let you take my memories, you don't want anyone to know because you're up to something... you and the other one. You could care less about Blayre the person, you're only using her for her body!"
Cal grabbed both wrists and pressed them quickly and powerfully against the back of the chair, she didn't want to risk getting her mind wiped or having to hurt Blayre. She leaned in and whispered into Blayre's ear. "I will protect her... I won't let you hurt her, won't let you use her just to further your own aims, she's a living person, she deserves respect, and her own body to do with as she pleases... she doesn't need you... Blayre, if you can hear me, I'll help you somehow. I promise."

Demented rolled her eyes, applying force to the arms binding her. She wasn't surprised with they didn't budge. The body's physical fitness always was a flaw.
"Blayre has never been harmed." Demented grunted. "She knows this is the only way for us to live!" Her voice dipped into a dark growl, like that of an animal. "If others know, we'll be committed to St. Mongo's like the mother! The secret MUST BE kept for all of us! Including Blayre!" The tiny body under the stronger Slytherin girl tried forcing upwards, only to drop uselessly with soft huffs.
"Blayre would not survive if we went away... She does not know how to function with out us."
In the mind, both Bug and Blayre looked on. Bug was laughing, knowing the second Calypso dared to leg go Demented would open a can of whoop a** with the wand. Blayre curled up, like a small child and listened. Don't hurt her. She pleaded. Demented, don't hurt her!

She let out a helpless growl and looked into the dark eyes before her. "You're wrong... she could do it... you've just never given her the chance... I would help her too..."
Sighing loudly she hung her head, she didn't know what to do but letting go now was not an option. Cal mulled the situation over in her mind, the only way out of this was a negotiation of some kind, she had to make sure she wasn't made to forget though. What to do...
"I want to make a deal... I won't tell. But... on two conditions. First, you let Blayre speak to me whenever she wants, and two, none of you will conspire in any way to erase my memory, either by accident or intent. Killing is also out of the question. I will take my own precautions to ensure that you keep up your end of the bargain." She moved Blayre's wrists and held them both in one hand as she reached down her shirt and pulled out a circular golden pendant, using her nail to trace the code that she spoke softly onto it 'Blayre=3'. It was simple but effective, the pendant shined briefly and the message dissapeared, only to reappear when Cal rubbed her thumb over it.
She gave a grim nod and tucked the pandant into her shirt. "Do we have a deal?"

As Shion stormed back into the Slytherin common room she looked furious. Her red hair was pulled back with a dark green ribbon, though strands had fallen loose. Shion was returning from a detention, a fun little detention with her least favorite of the professors.
She walked to one of the straight back chairs before the fire and sat heavily. "Stupid . . . rotten!" she mumbled to herself, pulling a sketchpad out of her robe pocket. A pencil was applied to the paper and soon the dark lines formed the shape of a snakes jaw, devouring the teacher, his head the only thing peeking from within.
"How do you like that?" Shion spat at the art. She had to admit that she was pleased with the picture. The quality wasn't bad for such a quick sketch. She only wished a real snake would eat the b*****d, make life a little easier . . . alright, a lot easier.
Shion untied the ribbon in her hair and wiggled it on just above the floor. In no time her small black and white cat had come running. A snile crept across Shion's face as she watched that cat swat at the string. It was almost as enjoyable as watching him catch and eat spiders. The disgusting things, they all deserved to meet there demise by the gleaming teeth with in Chaos' mouth.

Demented's eyes shifted quickly to the girl who just entered, finding their current position and topic of conversation to be rather unsettling. She couldn't win, at the moment. Her twisted mind took note of the options, and realized that the deal would be the best.
With casual movement, Demented leaned up to speak directly into Calypso's ear. "A deal... But remember," Her voice got lower as she spoke. "If you dare speak a word, a suggestion, a notion, a 'hypathetically speaking', I know enough magic to crush your bones, turn you inside-out, set your skin on fire and your lungs to ice with just a FLICK of my wand... DON'T go back on your word." The last was a harsh whisper, a reinforcement of the power she held inside of Blayre's body. She would use it, in a heart beat.
With exhaustion, Demented slid out of the front and allowed Blayre to take it up again. Bug was quickly silenced and told to follow the deal or else be put into a permanent sleep.
Demented had no time for idiots.
Blayre's body shuddered with her reentry. Her eyes lightened considerably, dull but incredibly brown compaired to the previous black. She was considerably cold now, and a little winded from Demented's take over. With a few huffs, Blayre relaxed completely against the couch.
She did not fight against her restraints.

She nodded curtly in response, not worrying about the threat and just wanting to get Blayre back. She looked into Blayre's eyes and saw that it was truly Blayre. Cal sighed in relief and hugged the girl to herself tightly then noticed the new arrival. Blushing brightly, she let go of Blayre and noticed she was shivering so she grabbed her blankets from the floor and put them on top of her.
She smiled softly and looked eagerly at Blayre. "Are you okay?" She whispered, watching the other girl in the room from the corner of her eye.

Blayre wanted to curl up againt Calypso and hug her in return... But there was someone else in the room. Instead, she tried cuddling into the blankets. The cold came from within, radiating outward to the skin.
The Slytherin prefect tried to disguise her blush by bringing the blanket up passed her nose. Calypso HAD to be some kind of insane... No.
"I'm fine..." She shook her head, dropping the blanket into her lap and leaning forward to hug the other girl. "You're..." Blayre shook her head. "Absolutely crazy."

Cal felt her own cheeks redden as Blayre hugged her. The real Blayre she was sure.
"Ahehehe... not crazy... either incredibly brave... or phenominally stupid." She shrugged and smirked proudly. She liked being the center of this girls attention.
Her face became serious as she looked into Blayre's eyes. "I don't regret it though, I will do whatever I have to to protect you, I promise." A smile spread across her face and she hugged Blayre back fiercely.

"Maybe a mix of both." She said seriously. You just didn't stand up to Demented like that... It just didn't happen.
She can't protect you from yourself, Blayre. Bug taunted. You'll mess up and she'll leave you. Just like the mother did! She still remained in the back seat, by far respecting Demented in comparison to Blayre. Demented could banish her from the mind. Erase her. Kill her. Blayre was weak, no matter her new friend. Blayre would always be weak, and could do nothing to stop her.
Blayre ignored her, wrapped up in a protective hug from Calypso. Protection... She shook her head. Calypso could only protect the secret, as she didn't need to be protected from Demented and Bug.
They've never truly harmed her in any way...

Maybe. Gran used to tell her she was as brave as her mother, as stupid as her father must have been and the only way she got away with it was because she was cute.
She giggled slightly and pressed her head against Blayre's shoulder to supress more laughter. "Yeah... I've been known to fall into those two categories more often then not... it probably is both."
She looked at Blayre by tilting her head slightly. "But you know... I wouldn't be me any other way. Love me or leave me." She grinned and let out a happy sigh.

Blayre... Smiled. A tiny one that barely dimpled her cheeks, but shimered through her eyes like a flash of light. A little flicker and it was all gone. Her face returned to it's blankness, and her brown eyes simmered back down to dull.
She sighed in Cal's grip, letting her eyes lower so that they could rest half way open. "... If it's all right with you, I'd like to keep you for now." Blayre said this very quietly, as if speaking it any louder would bring the world down on the school and crush them all. Firelight reflected in her eyes. She stared at it once again.
"Class should be starting soon."
