Plot

Prologue

WEREWOLF: HARRY POTTER

sin was carved with odd runes and symbols. Its white-silver liquidy contents glowed faintly and the room was silent in awe. So silent in awe that seven Spectrum members had just died from shock. Whitmorium also lay dead, were he not silent in awe before dying, his last words would have undoubtedly been “not again”.

Calumnius, being the most stupid of the group, approached the basin. It had an attractive property; he touched the liquid’s cloud like surface and instantly was sucked into the basin. One by one, the rest of the group were attracted by the basin’s apparent magnetism and were sucked in too.

After being seemingly sucked in, the Spectrites were transported to what was seemingly an office, the surrounding objects were amazing and not before long several portraits on the wall starting moving about in their frames as if woken from a daze. It was suddenly noticed that Calumnius was missing. Yet Oldham Road looked up on the wall in front of them and discovered Calumnius in a frame on the wall. Yet somehow it wasn’t quite Calumnius.

“Calumnius!” Oldham Road shouted...perhaps with a hint of apathy. The rest of the group looked up at the portrait of Calumnius. Somehow Calumnius had managed to grow a beard and had found a rather cool looking hat, but it seemed to be Calumnius all the same. And he began to speak...

“Alas! I have become a portrait. As you may have guessed, I am no longer entirely Calumnius, I am also Dumbledore.” He gave the group a couple of seconds the digest this slightly strange fact – but then again being transported in a basin to a strange room had been strange enough.

“I have been appointed custodian over you, what is to occur, is terrible. Terrible but great. Change is happening to you all too, as it happened to me, but it is on the inside. You will remain outwardly yourselves but inwardly – you are someone else. Some of you already know you are evil, the others may be good – but ultimately it is up to you to decide who is and who isn't. Just remember, After all, to the well-organised mind, death is but the next great adventure. We meet in the department of mysteries at the Ministry of Magic, this very eve to start our journey towards that adventure.”

With that Calumnius / Dumbledore vanished from his portrait to leave the rest of the group bemused.

It is day. Day One Vote: Monday evening, as I want you all to have talked to each other before the first vote. Good luck.

Day One

The group assembled in Courtroom 10, level 10 of the ministry of magic. It was a dark stone room and the walls were lit with dim torches. The group sat in rows of benches on one side of the room while a chair with chains on it sat in the centre of the room.

The portrait of Dumbledore was carried into the room by a man, called Filch, he put the painting down in the middle of the rows of benches and left the room.

“I call to the stand, Mushy Pea,” said Dumbledore loudly. Mushy Pea left the benches and sat in the chair, the chains remained still – for now. “Who here believe her to be evil?”

Hands shot up en mass but then down again quickly until only three hands remained. “I think that puts you in the clear for now, thank you – you may return to your seat.” Mushy Pea left the chair and went back to the benches.

“I call to the stand, Sabrateur” called Dumbledore. Sabrateur got up; he was looking worried, but somewhat resolute. He sat down in the chair. “Who here believe Sabrateur to be evil?”

A bunch of hands shot up, some went down and then back up again. Dumbledore waited, he knew how strange these things were. He counted 8 hands in the air. “That’s enough then. We find the accused guilty!” The chains on the chair moved quickly securing Sabrateur. He muttered something about a fair trial but was ignored.

“I say, Enthalpy, if you wouldn’t mind could you hover Sabrateur down the hall way and follow us. I lost the use of a wand...when....well, when I became a portrait.” Filch came back in, picked up Dumbledore’s portrait and they went out of the door. Enthalpy Change followed with Sabrateur hovering on a chair behind him. The rest of the group was led down the hall way and into the Department of Mysteries.

Dumbledore being Dumbledore chose the correct door right away in the department’s entrance. The one leading to the death chamber. The group sat on the stone ledges, while Filch put Dumbledore down at one side of a dais where there was a strange archway, covered by a veil – the veil was fluttering slightly, as if in a breeze – but there was no breeze. “Enthalpy put him down on the dais” Dumbledore commanded.

“You have made your choice, beyond the veil lies death. We knew there would be deaths – this is but the beginning. Filch, commit him”

Filch pushed the chair backwards and it fell backwards – Sabrateur let out a loud cry as he tumbled backwards and beyond the veil. Then it was over – Sabrateur was gone.

“Now, I can tell you friends, that Sabrateur was Ron. He only ever wanted to protect people. Now you can return to Hogwarts for the night, and we will see what happens next!”

Dumbledore left his portrait and left the group to their own devices.

Vote Day 1 Sabrateur is executed – Protector.

Night One

A cloud-like giant green skull hung over Hogwarts castle ominously, those waking up knew what it meant. Death. Don Flanioso didn’t turn up for breakfast, nobody knew where he’d gone – a search of the castle ensued. On checking Don Flanioso’s dormitory in Gryffindor Tower, there were definite signs of a struggle, the floor was littered with a silvery powder and Don Flanioso’s wand lay discarded on the floor and the large fire in the corner was still burning with a slight green ebb. Dumbledore’s portrait navigated through the various paintings of the castle and came to the dormitory. He told the assembled group that the powder was Floo Powder which is used to travel between fireplaces.

“It seems our dear friend Don Flanioso has been transported to somewhere else...” said Dumbledore. “I think I know where – To the Ministry of Magic!”

The group assembled 15 minutes later in the death chamber they had left a few hours before and found to their dismay more signs of a struggle. There was knitting all over the floor and unintelligible writing on a bag of coins – but Don Flanioso was nowhere to be seen.

“I think we must accept that the worst has happened – our dear friend has been pushed through the veil by some unsavoury character,” stated Dumbledore. “Let us now return to Hogwarts to enjoy the rest of our day, hopefully in peace. “

Don Flanioso – Hermione - Innocent – pushed through the veil Night One.

Day Two

The group assembled in the Ministry of Magic courtroom 10, level 10 once again. The courtroom seemed more ominous this time – everyone knew the seriousness of what could be about to occur. Everyone was taking their seats in the benches and Filch had brought Dumbledore’s portrait into the room. Then amid the raucous talk there was a burst of bright red light! No-one could tell where exactly it came from – but Mushy had Pea dropped to the floor. A few screams went up, Domas-Porada tried shaking her to get her to wake up – but it just wasn’t working. Dumbledore inspected the limp body of Mushy Pea,

“Alas, it would seem that Mushy Pea has been incapacitated for the remainder of our time in this world. She will have no further role in proceedings. Quite conveniently for some of you, she was a Death Eater – Lord Voldemort himself in fact!” At this point many gasps went up as Dumbledore had said the name of he-who-must-not-be-named. “This isn’t over though – the remaining Death Eaters will be hungry for revenge now, watch your backs!”

Filch removed the limp body of Mushy Pea and the room soon settled back down. Dumbledore began the trial.

“I call Dhatsun to the stand” Dhatsun walked down to the chair, looking nervously at the chains and the memory of Sabrateur the last day haunted him somewhat. “Who here believe Dhatsun to be evil?” Only two people raised their hands. Dhatsun returned to the benches thankful that he didn’t have to follow Sabrateur.

“I call Enthalpy Change to the stand” Enthalpy Change was shaking and sweating quite profusely, understandably. “Who here believe him to be evil?”

6 hands shot up into the air...they all looked around at each other as if certain they had a majority, but poor / evil Mushy Pea’s vote had been negated and now there was no majority.

“Well, I think Enthalpy Change has got off quite luckily tonight, because, as you well no know – no majority means no kill” said Dumbledore matter-of-factly. “You may return to Hogwarts, be thankful that there is one less Death Eater among you. Still...watch yourselves.”

With that Dumbledore left his portrait and the rest of the group returned to Hogwarts, they were happy and sad – but most of all – puzzled.

Mushy Pea incapacitated Day Two No Majority = No Execution.

Night Two

It was the dead of night, Hogwarts was sleeping – well most of it was anyway. In the great hall the ceiling gave a glimpse of the sky outside. It was raining and a streak of lightning bolted across the sky. The few candles that hadn’t been extinguished gave the room a spooky feel – not to mention the passing ghosts.... A Shadow crept through the great hall following Dhatsun as he went looking for a midnight snack. The Shadow slowly neared and an arc of brilliant arcane light issued from the Shadow’s wand. It hit Dhatsun squarely on the chest; Dhatsun’s chest immediately erupted in great gashes and blood poured from his veins. Dhatsun screamed, his life force slowly leaving his body. He collapsed to the floor.

“Morsmordre” the shadow whispered gruffly. The dark mark rose to the ceiling of the great hall telling of the atrocity that had occurred. The Shadow vanished leaving nothing but Dhatsun lying in a pool of his own blood and the dark mark hovering; a harbinger of death.

Dhatsun’s great death scream had awoken the school, the body was discovered and Dumbledore immediately called for. “Dhatsun was Fred Weasley, it is a sad thing that we must suffer his death. He was a joker, a gambler, but most of all – a good person.

Dhatsun – killed Night 2 – Fred Weasley – Innocent.

Something has Happened! Day Three

The group was eating lunch in the great hall when suddenly under the table there was a surge of red light. Before anyone could detect where it came from, Petersvillia’s body fell forward and crashed on the table. His pumpkin juice was spilt and ended up mostly in his hair. The group tried to wake him – but it was quite clear he was out for a long while....

Petersvillia – Bellatrix – Death Eater – day “killed” day 3.

Day Three

The group met for the third time in courtroom 10, floor 10 of the Ministry of Magic. Their numbers were fewer; a third had departed one way or the other, for better or worse. Yet still, they weren’t safe, the group was still being undermined. They met to remove another.

Dumbledore’s portrait was already in position, the babbling of the group was slowly tapering off and he began to speak. “We meet again, friends. You have made good progress so far, but you need to continue your run of good luck, this evening and onwards! I call on Undracor!”

Undracor walked to the chair, his first visit. He seemed strangely calm, for a man whose death was seemingly quite imminent. The hands went up and with few dissenters, Undracor was sentenced to death. Yet before the chains routed him to the spot, he was up. He ran out of the door – the group quickly followed and fired stunners in his general direction, they all missed. He ran into the lift, throwing the grill shut. It started to ascend…

The rest of the group ran towards the stairs chasing Undracor upwards. Undracor got out at the atrium and was swiftly followed by several other members of the group. A stunner hit the magnificent fountain of the magical brethren causing it to partially crumble as Undracor ran past it.

He entered the “visitor’s entrance” and the phone box began to ascend almost immediately. It left the group standing in the atrium unable to do anything. Undracor left the phone box when it reached the pavement outside and apparated. He would probably be back, but today he definitely wasn’t in the mood for the whole dying business.

Execution Day 3 – Undracor runs away.

Night Three

The night was fresh, there was a full moon and the Shadow was on the prowl again. It watched from the shadows as Sherylannia crept up the stairs in the entrance hall. It slowly manoeuvred to get a good shot...all the time Sherylannia oblivious and still ascending the stairs slowly. He was lost in a dream as usual.

A burst of light came from the shadows, like Dhatsun on the night before, Sherylannia burst into great gashes across his back where the spell hit. He froze momentarily, issuing a sharp gasp, before collapsing backwards down the stairs, thumping and thudding as he came. He hit the bottom with a loud crash as he hit a suit of armour.

He finished spread eagled in the middle of the entrance hall; blood was slowly forming in a puddle surrounding him. The giant clock struck two am and The Shadow left stealthily, but not before it issued from its deathly mouth the word: “Morsmodre” The Dark Mark rose slowly into the entrance hall’s loftly roof, Hogwart’s harbinger of death for the third night in a row. Slightly later, Buttery Boonswoggles had been doing errands and now felt hungry. He walked towards the castle’s kitchens in hope of finding a delightful treat. Yet, as he walked down the passage to the painting of the bowl of fruit, something emerged from around the corner. He froze in fright. The Thing wasted no time, before long Buttery Boonswoggles’ entrails were covering the floor outside the kitchen. The price of getting a midnight snack in Hogwarts these days is often deadly...

In the morning Enthalpy Change was found in bed unmoving, he was covered in acid like sours from Stink Sap. An innocent looking Mimbulus Mimbletonia plant sat beside his bedside, it certainly wasn’t there before. It looked to be the death of him. The group mourned the mass fatalities of the previous night. Seven remained - less than half the original number. Things were looking grim.

Sherylannia – Luna Lovegood - innocent – seer – killed Night three
Buttery Boonswoggles – Neville Longbottom - innocent – mauled night three
Enthalpy Change – Remus Lupin – innocent – murdered by plant night three

Something has Happened! Day Four

Oldham Road walked into the potion's classroom, he was flicking through an old potion's textbook, reminding himself of a few ... things. He didn't notice however that he'd been followed. A blast of red light hit Oldham Road and he collapsed on the floor, the book fell on top of him.

Oldham Road - killed Day Four - Severus Snape - Converted Evil.

Day Four

The group that now consisted of just six people met again in courtroom 10, level 10 of the ministry of magic. They all now knew the routine all too well...

“I Know Better Than You!” Dumbledore bellowed, struggling over the number of words and syllables. He now knew why most people referred to him simply as “IKBTY”. I Know Better Than You made his way to the chair unflinchingly with perhaps a dash of confidence and a scattering of apathy. Two people raised their hands. I Know Better Than You made to move back to the benches – but Dumbledore stopped him,

“Hold on, my friend, let us first see how many votes our friend Red Rose Movement has before allowing you to return to your seat.”

Red Rose Movement joined I Know Better Than You. Three people raised their hands, including I Know Better Than You. “Well neither of you has a majority, I know I was somewhat lenient on the second day – but now we’ve got to take decisive action!” Dumbledore said jovially. Filch reached into his pockets and found an enchanted dice. It had five sides, two sides said “I Know Better Than You”, the remaining three sides said “Red Rose Movement”. Filch rolled the dice. It slowly came to a halt on a Red Rose Movement side.

“What are you waiting for Filch?” said Dumbledore as if something should have happened already. Nothing continued to happen – or rather everything continued to not happen. Filch shrugged and left the courtroom dropping, by accident, on his way out a handful of Galleons.

“Well it looks like our executioner in chief...ahem...didn’t want to execute Red Rose Movement, oh well. Back to Hogwarts all...”

~

To summarise in real terms, execution was randomised and the result was Red Rose Movement. The execution was then stopped by a power. Just to limit the confusion.

Night Four

It was night again and IKBTY was walking down towards the lake, the not quite full moon’s light reflected off the lake’s surface, radiating the surrounding trees and underbrush with an eerie white glow. A second person was following him, IKBTY couldn’t quite tell who. With all the recent events, IKBTY was worried, he kept checking over his shoulder at the mysterious figure.

After five minutes of being trailed he turned around and shouted into the clammy night,

“Who’s there? Show yourself!” The dark figure moved closer, eventually the moonlight cleared their face for IKBTY to see. “You?!”

“Yes, it is me. And you have seen far too much Mr Potter,” the voice said gruffly, which a slight rasp. “Crucio!” bellowed the dark figure. IKBTY collapsed to his knees, evidently in intense pain. He reached for his temples, his head felt like it was about to explode. The dark figure laughed manically, enjoying every second of IKBTY’s intense pain. “Not so tough now, hey Potter?” the figure stopped for a brief moment, enjoying the knowledge that they were only prolonging IKBTY’s suffering. “Crucio!” cried the voice again into the night, as if summoning Death himself. IKBTY was shaking, rolling about on the floor. He couldn’t last much longer...

IKBTY fell unconscious...he never awoke. The dark figure levitated IKBTY’s body that was still clinging to life and sent it crashing down in the middle of the lake. IKBTY drowned silently. The figure’s final act was simple.

“Morsmodre” it whispered, as once again the Dark Mark appeared. It rose over Hogwarts casting its macabre glow on the many turrets and pinnacles.

The dark figure scarpered away into the safety of the castle.

IKBTY is murdered – Harry Potter – Innocent

Something has Happened Day Five

Undracor was wandering through the castle, he feared for his life after running away from the vote kill. He avoided everyone at all costs, but now he noticed he was being followed...

His follower cornered him holding their wand to Undracor's chest. "It was you wasn't it? You killed him. Killed my love...well now I must take you out of the proceedings...Stupefy!"

Undracor fell to the floor with a bang, he was out cold.

Undracor killed Day 5 - Draco Malfoy - neutral.

Day Five

The group gathered again in courtroom 10, level 10 of the ministry of magic. There were but four remaining. Dumbledore looked at the group as they sat down in the benches. The group consisted of those still living – yet most looked dead, their faces gaunt and their eyes set well back into their skulls. The result of four near-sleepless nights.

“Red Rose Movement!” Dumbledore bellowed. Red Rose Movement left the benches and sat in the chair. She knew all too well what was about to occur, yet was powerless to stop it tonight.

Three hands were raised, the remainder of the group. That was enough for Dumbledore. The chains on the chair came to life and fastened Red Rose Movement to the chair. Adoggo and Domas-Porada hovered Red Rose Movement on the chair into the Department of Mysteries.

They reached the death chamber, the veil was still blowing in the nonexistent breeze. Red Rose Movement was positioned just outside the veil in readiness.

“Filch, commit her!” Dumbledore commanded. Filch pushed the chair backwards and Red Rose Movement tumbled backwards and beyond the veil into death . “I can tell you now that Red Rose Movement was Lucius Malfoy, a death eater, a very bad man. My commendations to you three survivors, you have succeeded in defeating the evil that dwelled here. We can now return to our fair Spectrum.”

Dumbledore was already changing back to Calumnius. There was a sudden jerk and all of the original fifteen nations were back in The Spectrum parliament. They were scattered all over the floor as if they had collapsed. Many had no recollection of the past few days. Even those seemingly killed right at the beginning – those that did not enter the realm of Harry Potter had awoken – apart from Whitmorium – he was definitely dead.

The End.

Victors – Nintenduu 64, Adoggo, Domas-Porada
Special Sock Victory – Nintenduu 64

Trivia

• The game was marred for some when it was alleged that Buttery Boonswoggles disrupted the game by vehemently influencing votes after being killed, claiming that Oldham Road was an evil character.
