Dalton Willow pulled the door of Zonko's Joke Shop open, probably a little more hastily than needed. The room itself was dim-litted, but hundreds of different objects either gave off their own light, reflected light, or flashed neon lights. Dalton hated this shop for several reasons. And this was one of them. It was like a headache walking into this shop. However, he was looking for some things that may be good distractions, or something helpful for when he needed to do his father's menacing tasks. Last time he came here, he managed to find some useful Invisibility chewy's that allowed him to saunter the halls of the castle after hours to do some thinking, alone.
Today he was kind of in a hurry, though, because today was the day he had to get to the Ministry and back before Hogsmeade hours ran out and people had to return to the castle. So, when he couldn't locate the Invisibility chewy's, Dalton groaned loudly and managed to knock down a second year for not moving out of his way. His wand was clutched firmly in his hand while he verbally abused the pathetic kid, "Get your fat ass out of the aisle twerp, unless you want your head to be dislocated from your chubby, non-existent neck." When the boy scowled at him, Dalton flicked his wand, pointing it to the shelves loaded with miniature glass globes used in Divination. They crashed to the floor, surrounding the kid. Wasting no time to see if he was able to hit the kid with a few, Dalton ran out of the shop, grabbing a handful of his sought-after Chewy's.

Blair walked down the street of Hogsmeade, trying to get back into Hogwarts unnoticed. She had been at the Three Broomsticks when she ran into someone outside of Zonko's.
"Watch where you're fu- Dalton? What are you doing here?" She noticed a package from the store and thought that was odd, the only people she thought went to Zonko's were six-year-olds and Gryffindors.

Jessica flashed the waitress at the Hog's Head a dirty look as she left the grimy pub. It wasn't Jessica's choice of a meeting place, but her father insisted that they meet there. Finally, he was giving her a small mission to take part in. It wasn't anything major, but she was supposed to sneak into the headmaster's office and steal the files that they had on the Defense Against the Dark Arts classes. She wasn't sure what they were planning, but it must be something big if they needed to know what the school had in mind. Jessica looked around to make sure that she was safe to walk the streets, and took off in the direction of Hogwarts. She was passing Zonko's when she saw the one person that she did not want to see, and the one person she did. She sauntered over with her usual smirk on her face. "Fancy seeing you here Blair darling, and Dalton, always a pleasure seeing you."

"Damn it." Dalton said under his breath as he was stopped by Blair. The owner of Zonko's could be heard yelling up a storm on the other side of the door. The last thing Dalton needed was to get in trouble by him. "Hey, listen im in a- you too?" he was interupted by Jessica. It probably wasn't the best greeting he could give to her, but he was under a lot of stress and these weren't the kind of distractions he was looking for. "I mean, its a pleasure seeing you here too." he added. He was about to rush past them, but then stopped for a minute. "What were you doing in Hog's Head?"

Jessica was a little affronted by Dalton's behaviour, but she understood that he was probably here on business, just as she was. She crossed her arms, still glaring at Blair. This could have been a perfect opportunity for her and Dalton, but no, Blair had to be there. She smiled sweetly at Dalton, closing the gap between the two of them as she walked forward. "Well, I'd love to tell you, but one of those problem Slytherins we were talking about earlier is in the vicinity. I'd rather not spread my business where /she/ could hear." Jessica's voice had a sharp edge to it as she spoke to Dalton, ignoring the fact that Blair could hear everything she was saying.

Dalton shifted his gaze to Blair for a split second and looked back to Jessica. "I understand..." he said quietly into her ear. He touched her cheek and smirked, knowing Blair had a jealous streak in her. "Tell me all about it later, tonight. I have to get going to- well you know where." he said, kissing her before backing away. "See you around Blair." he added before popping an invisibility chewy in his mouth and rushing off.

Blair looked at Jessica with a mute expression, trying to comprehend what was going on around her. She knew they were talking about her, she could tell by the way Dalton looked at her. But what exactly were they saying? Blair had to find out. "Well, Malfoy, that was sufficiently... enjoyable. But I really must be going." Blair turned around to walk away.

Jessica smiled happily when Dalton kissed her. "Yeah, I'll meet you at dinner okay? I've got a lot to tell you." She called after him. She watched him leave, and turned to Blair with a snarl on her face. "What, can't call me Jessica any more Zabini? I really don't see why you hate me so much. It's not like it's my fault my daddy is so much more important than yours. Like father like daughter hm?" Jessica grinned as she watched Blair leave. She was pretty sure that comment would get to Blair, she was so sensitive about their fathers.

Blair stopped. She turned around. "Important is an opinion, Malfoy. And no, your father is not more important than mine, because your father is a cowardly little snitch. My father could've been killed, just because your father is a cowardly DUMBASS." And with that, she slammed her heel in to Jessica's foot.

"Shit. Blair, honestly. You're acting like such a pathetic muggle. Almost like your father. At least mine had the guts to go back to the Dark Lord. Who's daughter was given the privelege of recieving the dark mark.. oh look me." She sneered at Blair pulling the arm of her robe down, and quickly removing the spell that she had covering it. Jessica watched Blair scowl at her, and quickly sent a curse at her. With a well placed Cruciatus curse, Blair was on the floor writhing in pain.

Blair hit the ground, screaming. Trying to break out of the curse, but Blair wasn't strong. She screamed, knowing she was giving Jessica just what she wanted. Suddenly she heard the Zonko's door opening and screamed louder.

Jesscia looked over and saw someone exiting Zonko's and she immediately put her wand away. She rushed over and pretended to help Blair up off the ground. "You okay Blair? Who was that guy in the robe anyways?" She asked innocently. The man from Zonko's walked over to see what was going on. "What's going on? Who was it?" He asked gruffly.
"I think it was a Death Eater." Jessica whispered, her voice filled with a fake fear. She slumped Blair over her shoulder and smiled sweetly at the man. "Thanks for checking on her, she's my best friend after all. I'll be taking her back to the school now, we were just here sending a package to her grandmother.. she's not doing so well. I came for support." The man was captivated by Jessica's smile, and he just nodded dumbly. All the while, Jessica was using her wand to cast a silencing spell on Blair. As soon as the man was gone, she started walking away, half towing Blair.

Gentry stepped quickly into Jessica's path, smirking in amuesment.
"Enjoying yourself, my dear? It seems so," He mused, sstudying Blair's half limp form.
"You girls really know how to duke it out, don't you? Need a hand?"

Blair tried to yell, but she knew it was of no use. Jessica was a bitch, and Blair knew that you couldn't fight ice with ice. you had to be sneaky. And that's exactly what Blair was going to do. Be sneaky, and get back at Jessica. Blair wanted to kick, scream, or punch Jessica in the face. but she wouldn't. Well, she couldn't. She knew only Jessica could lift the spell. So she played along and thought of ways to get back at Jessica Malfoy.

Jessica grinned as Gentry came up. "Yes, it was quite enjoyable. Can you take her? She's quite heavy.. you really should work out dearie." Jessica passed Blair to Gentry, snatching her wand out of her robes in the process. "And look at that, the Malfoy family comes out on top.. again. Not much of a surprise really." Jessica looked over at Blair with a grin. Jessica liked winning, especially against Blair.
