"Really?" Reese said, her voice sounded unnerved, but her heart was suddenly beating incredibly fast, "Hexing me won't do much good. Madam Pince is lurking nearby, she doesn't trust people in the Restricted Section. And I gather that you don't want to attract unwanted attention." Reese glanced down at Twila's wand, hoping that she had been able to talk herself out of a potentially bad situation. "Not that you care anyways, I wasn't eavesdropping. If I had been, don't you think I would have been quieter. So it would be beneficial to us all if you let me get my book and leave."

Though Reese and Aquila were almost the same height, somehow the Slytherin girl managed to look down upon her. Aquila’s willow wand was held slightly out in front of her. Her animal-like gaze was fixed on the Hufflepuff with menace and mockery blazing inside them. Like a cat that had cornered a rodent. She snorted as Reese warned them about Madam Pince being nearby. Unable to suppress a taunting giggle, she snickered, “Oh please. As if we couldn’t manage that squib. Besides who said we’d alarm her. Haven’t you heard about non-verbal spells?” She sauntered over a few feet so that Twila was on one side of her and Aquila on the other, leaving the little snoop no escape. Unless she cared to run into another bookshelf like the one in front of her. Aquila leaned over slightly, peering down at Reese threateningly like a snake coiling up to spring. “And hexes? I don’t recall anyone here mentioning a hex. And you know, hexes and curses are not quite the same thing.”

"I realize." Reese retorted. She was thinking fast of how to get out of this. The Slytherin girls had blocked her in, and Reese saw no escape route, for now. "But your reasoning is not quite there, right? For you they would be non-verbal, but what would stop me from, ah, making mine more than silent?" Reese continued to stare down the Slytherin girls, she wasn't going to back down easily, hopefully she would come out of this with something Madam Pomfrey could fix easily...but with these two, there were no guarantees.

"Again, feel free to alarm Madam Pince. A detention is better than letting a snoop run around unpunished for their atrocious behavior. Besides I haven't done anything to you. Yet."
Aquila still hadn’t repelled her gaze away from the unfortunate soul in front of her, having stumbled upon virtually probably the two most dangerous girls within the Slytherin house. She smiled cruelly completely unshaken by Reese’s boldness. In a sick, sadistic way, she enjoyed and applauded people brave enough to stand up to her. Even if it made as her pissed off as hornet, it made the process of revenge and torment so much enjoyable as opposed to knocking down someone who simply let her. “I’ll tell you what, you little chit. Or at least two of the several reasons going through my cranium what. For one I can put you in so much pain, you won’t even be able to make a sound the agony would be so great. Or here’s another scenario. I just put you in a simple body-bind and then do whatever the hell I want with you. Need I continue?”

"I never thought Slytherins as cheats, but then again, I have been wrong before..." Reese countered, "Now, here's an idea. Why don't you let me leave, and you too can get back to what ever you were discussing. I hardly care about your dealings."

Twila watched the exchange between the other two girls with an almost hungry expression in her violet eyes. She was keen to let Aquila take over (and she was handling marvelously,) but sitting out had never been Twila's ideal way to have fun.
"Or," She interrupted, her voice sounding almost bored, "I could wipe the memory of this moment right out of your head. And just to make sure it's good and gone, I'll wipe out the rest of them, too.... how does that sound, twerp?" She smiled sweetly, and for a moment it was easy to see why the teachers were so fooled by Twila.
"Better yet, since I think I'd be doing your housemates a favor, I could make you my new test subject...." Twila eyed the girl hungrily, though in truth she wouldn't waste a drop on the little twit. Still, she wasn't about to admit that to the underclassman, now was she?

Aquila tilted her head to the said, happy to let Twila interject. A sick, cruel smile was played out across her crimson lips. In the back of her mind she could hear Phoenix’s voice chastising her but typically, she ignored her twin. And she may admire Reese’s boldness but her impertinence was getting a bit out of line for someone who well was cornered. “Let’s face it dearie,” she said sweetly. “You aren’t going to get out of here unscathed. So I suggest you cooperate and pick your poison well.” Pun intended.

"You really expect me to not put up a fight?" Reese interjected, her mind was racing on all the counter curses and hexes she knew. She did do a nice Bat Bogey Hex, but that would only make them angrier. Or she could always yell for help, she noticed several friends on her way in to the library, they would come undoubtedly. "But just think, hexing me or erasing my memory would hardly earn you just a detention. Expulsion, maybe even." Reese said.

Twila met Aquila's gaze at her pun, and gave a smirk and a slight nod of acknowledgement. She was really beginning to like her after all.
"How could we? No one could prove anything, and you certainly wouldn't remember. Actually, it's starting to sound better and better.... Aquila, I give you the honors." She twirled her wand in her fingers, her snake bracelet gleaming. To be part of the court, one had to demonstrate they had what it took to be loyal to the court- including protecting its secrets. Twila had proved her merit- it was time for Aquila to do the same.

"Oh please, it wouldn't be to hard to put together." Reese said scathingly. She surveyed the girls with hatred. She gripped her wand tighter and her mind began to reel with ideas. She had a few promising plans, she just hoped they wouldn't backfire.

Aquila faltered for a moment, knowing if there was ever a time to prove herself to Twila, now would be the time. She instantly thought of three particular curses that she knew what definitely impress her. But she had never officially used any of those curses, which she was sure was more than illegal. She knew that someday she would also have to show where she got this curse from. But the whole point of her desire to join the ranks of the Slytherin Court was to someday convert them to the cause. And if she had something Twila wanted, Aquila was certain the Alpha would be more under her influence and would be more included. She quickly outweighed her options and decided. Besides, there would be no way that the Hufflepuff would be able to counter her attack.
“Imperio,” she said almost silently so the others wouldn’t hear what she said, more mouthing the words than speaking them as she brandished her dark red wand.

Twila had no idea what had happened, as she couldn't hear what word Aquila said. Still, it was effective- the little Hufflepuff suddenly seemed to be out of control of her own body, but was still pliable, unlike a body bind. This was certainly useful, and Twila would have to remember to ask Aquila about it later. Right now, she wasn't going to seem any more curious than she had to, or Aquila would be aware of just how interested Twila really was.
"Let's dispose of her and take our conversation to a more private place." Twila suggested quietly, sticking her wand back in her pocket.

haha i have no idea how to get out of this...lol
Reese felt her mind wheel out of control. Her head was suddenly obeying some force other than hers. 'Fight it...fight it.' Reese thought desperately trying to gain control back over her body.

{K WIP. But real quick, Reese would you mind terribly if you didn't counter Aquila's attack?}
