Katarina had just been woken up by her classmates shuffling around getting their stuff ready to leave class. Class is already over? She drowsily got her stuff together and left class. Katarina was quick to make space between herself and the greenhouse. She always found that class such a bore and today was especially boring due to the professor's lecture. Defense Against the Dark Arts class was next in her schedule but she had half a mind of skipping. She gets top marks in that class easy so she thinks she deserves a little break from that class. Katarina slowed her pace down to think things over before realizing she was about to run into somebody. In that split second of realization, she was too late to react and ended up knocking them and herself over to the ground. "Oof!" she exclaimed as she scrambled to her feet again. The thought of apologizing never crossed her mind. Dusting herself off and pulling herself together, she looked to the one she had run over.

Pixie had need walking down towards the green houses in hope of meeting her cousin or aunt but as she had seen the other students leaving she had noticed their robe colours, green and blue, slytherin and ravenclaw. Pixie signed and pulled her shcool back up on to her sholder and turned away from the green house as someone walked in to her, she felt forwards and her head hit the round hard and she got a mouthful of dirt in the process. She blinked her eyes and then pressed her palms to the ground and pushed herself up on to her knees and spat out the dirt from her mouth and then coughed as some of it went the wrong way, her curly red hair fell over her face as she choked on the dirt

Katarina caught note of the girl's robes, red and gold. She rolled her eyes at the girl before stepping over her as she was sitting up, causing her to trip over her in the process and falling over yet again. A streak of irritation came over her briefly before she began to laugh at herself. Katarina made no attempt to get up again. She simply rolled over onto her back and stared up at the sky as her laughter died down. Remembering the gryffindor girl she had so recently toppled over, she lifted her head to look at her again. Not really caring about her well-being, she rested her head back on the ground. Maybe I should get up. I look a bit silly just laying on the ground. Katarina sat back up and dusted off the excess dirt and debris off herself. Standing up and looking down at the girl, she blew her bangs out of her eyes and with her hands on her hips asked, "Are you too dumb to get up on your own?" This was Katarina's way of asking if she was okay.

Pixie heard the girl speak and her hand curled up in the dirt and she shook her head so her hair fell over her pointed ears and then she stood up and looked at the girl ,she was older than pixie and looked about the same age as her "cousin" but she had none of the playful facial features or anything nice about her. Pixie brushed herself down and then purposely flicked the extra diet from her knees over the other girls robes and then she looked up at her with her dark eyes burning with anger ,"well aren't you stuck up" she said in a bitter voice as she slipped her hand inside her robe as the wind blew past the two girls once again

Katarina couldn't help but roll her eyes again. "I'm not stuck up. I'm just me," she said with her lips curling into a sinister smile. She raised one eyebrow as she noticed the dirt flick onto her robes. "If I were you, I'd do my best to not irritate me, little girl," she said threateningly. She shook her robes free of the dirt before looking at the girl again. Katarina pitied her in a way. A young gryffindor girl crossing the path of an older slytherin does not seem to have a reasonable result. Maybe in a different world, Katarina would be somewhat nice to her but they're not. They're here at Hogwarts with all the house rivalry in the world.

Pixie rolled her dark eyes and then looked up at the girl ,"I'm not scared of no rude and snobby brat of a slytherin, I have friends as old as you! You can't get me because both of them can get you back, plus karina is really nice and I could always just go to her about you!" pixie said with her hands curled in to fists inside her robes but she slid her hand in to the pocket and took out her light brown Hazel wand and then pointed it down at the ground as her fingers twisted round it ,"why are you do bitter anyway?" she said as her hair fell forwards over her shoulders and her pointed ears poked out from the red curls

Katarina opened her mouth to retort but immediately closed it when she eyed the girl's pointed ears. Her eyes widened in shock as she switched her gaze to the girl's face. "W-What are you?" she exclaimed. She had certainly never heard of a witch or wizard with pointed ears before. She had to be something else. Katarina racked her brains for an answer but could find none. Veelas, werewolves, and the like certainly didn't have those kinds of ears. One idea was merpeople. But that's impossible... Still puzzled, she regained her composure and glared at the girl. "You don't belong here," she said flatly. It was then that she noticed her holding a wand. This confused her even more. So she must have some sort of magic in her...

Pixie watched the girls eyes and then lifted one hand up and touched her head and then felt the sharp point of her rout ear agains her hand and she nodded and then looked up at the older girl ,"my father was a wizard, there are people here who have one sided wizard families, I can be here all I like" she said and felt her wand grow warm and looked down to see bright green and red sparks shooting out from the end of it. She shook her head and took a deep breath and felt her wand cool down and then she looked up at the girl ,"why do you care?" she hissed up at the other girl

"It's just... odd that's all. What else are you?" she asked curiously. Katarina's tone had changed slightly to more cordial. If she wanted to know stuff about her she needed to be at least bearable to the girl. No use in being her normal wicked self if she wasn't going to get any information. She decided to sit down in front of the girl and looked at her ears again. So very strange... She had her knees pulled up to her chest and her arms loosely wrapped around them. She cocked her head to the side to further observe. Katarina wondered what they looked like from afar. A seventh year slytherin conversing with a second year gryffindor. A very rare thing indeed.

Pixie shook her head and then flicked her wand in her hand and slid it back inside her robe and into her robe pocket and then looked over at the slytherin girl, she had sat down on the grass beside the path now and had her knees up close to her face. Pixie rolled her eyes and then looked down at the other girl ,"my mo..cousin told me to never trust a slytherin who changes from a "stuck up brat" to bearable and polite. You're liars and manipulative people so I'm not wasting my time with you, I am one of a kind, thats all I'm saying" she said and then stuck her tongue out at the older girl

"And who is this cousin you speak of? Does she have red hair like you?" Katarina asked her with raised eyebrows. She deliberately ignored the rest of the girl's insults. If she took the insults in, she would be forced to retort with some nasty words of her own and she didn't want to do that right now. Anyway, she's too curious at the moment to be mean. She unknowingly leaned forward to further observe her as if she were some rare creature. To Katarina, the girl was a rare creature. In fact, she hasn't seen anything like her. Something about her did strike a familiar chord with Katarina but she had no idea what it was. As she kept thinking up ideas of what in the world this girl could be, she continued to stare at her.

"yea, she has red hair like me but mine is smooth and curly and her is wild and messy, I liked her best but it was safer for mine to be different" she said as she watched the girl look her over again and then rested her hand on her hips ,"it's rude to stare you know" she said with the sacasm dripping from her voice as she flicked her wand around in her hand so it was balanced on her middle finger and only wobbling a little, something else her mother or rather "cousin" has taught her. She looked down at the slytherin girl and then waved her hand ,"don't you have another class to go to now? You don't have to keep talking to a gryffindor who hates you anymore, it'll ruin your reputation" she said in an annoyed tone

"I could care less what the others think. Besides, you remind me of someone..." It was then that it hit her. Nix Night! The red hair... the way the girl was holding her wand... it all fit together! Her face turned into one of surprise and triumph as she finally figured out who she reminded her of. For the moment, she put aside the fact that she still had no idea what kind of witch the girl was. "You must be related to Nix Night! Am I right?" she asked excitedly. From afar, people would think Katarina was delighted by something the girl said but, she didn't really care. If anyone said anything, she'd make sure they wouldn't get away with it.

Pixie narrowed her eyes and looked down at the slytherin ,"yea, she's my mothe..."cousin", she kinda looks a lot like me" she said with a large grinning growing over her face, she tried her best not to laugh at the small inside joke and stifled a snigger. The sun was now high in the sky and pixie looked over her sholder and then stepped sideways a little and looked around for some shade, her ears twitched slightly and she looked down at the older slytherin again and then rolled her eyes ,"you must have one hell of a boring life to still be here with me" she said bitterly and she spotted a shady tree beside the lake and nodded to herself and then pulled up the hood on her robes so it covered her skin better and made to walk round the other girl

"What are you a vampire?" she said more so to herself than the girl. She noticed her about to say 'mother' first before saying cousin but she didn't really think much of it. The two were related and that was all she needed to know. Katarina didn't bother to follow her. Instead she spoke a little louder, "You know I hate your cousin or whatever she is to you. She talks too much." Katarina gave her a haughty look before thinking to herself, I really do have better things to do... I found out mostly everything I wanted to know. She stood up and turned to face the girl once more. Out of the corner of her eye, she noticed some younger students gawking at Katarina talking to the young girl. She gave them a dirty look and smiled to herself as they fearfully ran off.
