Star Wands opening in Diagon Alley!

Since the closure of Olivanders, the bustling streets of Diagon Alley have been painfully devout of wand shops, with the vast majority of business being lost out to foreign magicians. However from the 19th of February, this will no longer be the case; Star wands, the new shop, will open to great anticipation. Indeed, Minister for magic Kingsley Shacklebolt said in an interview today, "I am ecstatic that business will finally be coming the way of the English budget, what with the financial turmoil that has been crashing about the ears of the wizarding public.�
The new shop, to be opened by the proprietors M. Hermes and sons, are to start a new craze in British wands. They have visited the ministry ahead of the proposed opening and presented the minister with a band new wand, almost to the standard that Olivander himself would have been proud of. The new shop will be situated opposite Flourish and Blotts, with a small branch opening outside Weasley's Wizarding Wheezes, in Hogsmeade.

The magical wedding

I reported last week that the wedding of two willow members was going to take place, well it has happened and we are very happy for them. But with one being a deatheater , there was bound to be some problems. The guests started to arrive , some on brooms and some apperated. The few muggles that were invited looked nervous . The guests were usered into the room , but for they had to sign a binding aggrement , that no one was able to hex or duel in any way until after the wedding. The service began and it was plain to see , this couple were well and truly in love and made for each other. A few members of the willow were at this wedding, the bride father (quiddich captain) and the maid of honour (me). After the sevice , the guests followed the new husband and wife for Fire wiskey and photos. When the pics where all finished and the guests becan the long wait till the evening do , Fiona annouced a suprise. the suprise turned out to be a quiddich pitch in the room , where the wedding had taken place. Myself and the quiddich captain made a noise of delight and ran for brooms , However i did have a bit of truble trying to mount the broom in such a big dress and i did not managed to stay on it long. As the guest played and drank too much , the evening guests began to arrive. The night do went really well, and as the evening came to a close and the guests fell back on to their brooms I had to agree , even though Griffindsbridge is the worst deatheater i have ever met , he turns into a pigmy puff when around miss firestone. So please raise your mugs of pumpkin Jouce to FIONA FIRESTONE and GRIFFINSBRIDGE.

Two sides join

A marriage of two people is a wonderful thing , but is a wonderful thing when two opposites side unite? In the wizarding world we have two side ... Good and of course bad. It has been brought to my attention , that a member of the order will marry a death eater in less than a weeks time. The two are very happy and make a great couple , but what does this mean to the whomping willow and the wizarding world in general? will the two sides unite and the world be at peace? or will there be war and chaos? we will bring you more news after the wedding.

Blackrose goes too far

Blackrose the notorious deatheater was over heard bosting about the bridge disater on friday night. The hunt is now on for blackrose... DEAD OR ALIVE. "I was out on friday night in the near by muggle town and Walking a little further she saw lights from a town glowing ahead. Was a muggle massacre a good idea for the night? BlackRose thought it was. There was some sort of celebration going on. There was lots of people still out in the street so late. For some reason BlackRoses thoughts wandered to her sister, wishing she too was by her side, knowing that BlackRose was now willing to give her that chance she wanted. These thoughts enraged BlackRose more and she kicked a nearby stray dog out of her way. Suddenly there was a loud bang. BlackRose looked up to the sky startled but then realised that it was only muggle fireworks and continued to survey the town. on the side of a riverbank men were setting the fireworks off and the bridge above was full of muggle eager to watch the lights is the sky. BlackRose without any remorse blew the bridge apart. Muggles were screaming and running to their houses while others tried to help the injured and pull others out the water. BlackRose smiled to herself as she watched bodies being swept away by the river.

The unforgivables used again

The lastest news just in.
Adelenor and Albus Dumbledore have been found in really bad conditions.
The Order member and prefect were found near a picnic basket with Adelenor laughing her head off and Albus dead.
Some speculate that they had a disagreement and Adelenor turned to the unforgivables but Adelenor insists that the killer was indeed BlackRose aided by none other than Red_Dog.
Which is the truth?
You decide.

Changes at the Ministry.

It was announced today that Major changes of personnel have just taken place at the Ministry of magic.
A spokesman for the Ministry said Red dog has just taken over as personnel officer and is solely in charge of hiring and firing all new employees.

Red himself said �I have started my new roll by employing Bella the Beautiful and BlackRose who I know well. They will help me sift out the dead wood and all the do gooders.�

He then went on to say.
�This should make the Ministry a much more efficient place.�
�Anyone who thinks there job is safe should think very hard as it may not be as safe as they think.�
�I have people in mind that could fill many if not all of the top jobs here.�
Red then added �I am working hard to make the Ministry what it should be��

I think we all know what that will be.

Right Royal Rave......

The Wizarding World was in turmoil yesterday, after the younger members of the muggle royal family held a week long rave in five parts of Britain....one of which being the wizarding village of Hogsmeade.

The Ministry had been informed that the 'Royal Ravers' were approaching, and had set up a invisibility charm over the village.
But the plan failed.
Several dozen Death-Eaters (who for some legal reason our shambles of a Ministry has found, cannot be named) were mysteriously aware of the charm, and penetrated it, allowing the ravers to enter the village.

It was around eleven pm, when the booze filled part-goers entered The Three Broomsticks and The HogsHead inns.
Before the ministry could get off their backsides however, the wizarding community were fighting back, with dozens of muggles lying on the floor unconscious, under strange curses, or otherwise in a state of shock.

Many Death-Eaters took this opportunity to rob the houses, and shops in Hogsmeade, at least ten wizards and witches, and a handful of muggles were found dead, because of the death eaters.

The Muggles that lived have had their memories modified and are being treated in St Mungo's.

The Minister for Magic was unavailable for comment yesterday,

A duel at tesco,s

The party at head quarters was going well...untill they ran out of booze and munchies...AAAARRRRRGGGGGGG.
all the girls decided to draw straws to see who would go shopping. clare pulled the third straw after sam.when Angela pulled a straw, clare was sure she hear her mutter, engorgio. clare lost and was given drinks and food orders. so off she went with a pop. she landed in tesco,s car park. she found it hard walking on gravel in her bunny slippers , and the wind was blowing throught her weird sisters , pajarmas.
she entered the shop, with at 2.00 in the morning was empty ,execpt the staff would were filling the shelves half asleep, and looking very bored.
clare headed towards the booze row. and as she walked humbed one of her favourite tunes.
Bellatrix wandered up and down the isles at the Muggle supermarket they call 'Tesco'. She was in need of the thing they called 'crips', they didn't have anything nearly as nice in the wizarding world.
She had first discovered crisps one evening when she had hexed a young Muggle woman walking down the street. Bella liked to loot the Muggles she hexed, they carried such weird and wonderful things about their person. She had stolen the crisps from the young woman she had hexed, and once one of those delectable delights had passed her lips, her life was never the same again.
Tesco was not busy, it was 2am and the only Muggle in sight was one lone checkout girl, casually filing her nails at her post.
Bellatrix was getting impatient, she had gone up atleast four isles already and no sign of any crisps.
"'Supermarket' - is that what they called this" Bella ranted to herself, "there is certainly nothing 'super' about it, what with the excellent lighting and the luxurious carpeting. Now if there were crisps on every isle, that would be a different story."
She carried on her search, she rounded the corner to the next isle. The isle was full of sparkling colours, red, gold, green, blue and yellow - it was crisp heaven, it seemed that each little packet was glowing like rows upon rows of tiny celestial bodies.
Bellatrix was in awe, such beauty she had never before beheld. She was scanning the many, many rows of crisps trying to decide which flavours she should get. She had just decided that she would have to take all of them, otherwise she would never forgive herself, when she looked down and saw the pinkest, furriest and most hideous bunny slippers she had ever seen.
Her eyes were burning as she looked up at the wearer of said bunny slippers. She was less than pleased (or surprised for that matter) to see that they belonged to ClareClearwaters. Bellatrix grinned, "Well," she said. "isn't this a *hem-hem* pleasent surprise. What's up doc?" clare had already got her booze surply and she had headed towards the crisp isle ,when she had an unwanted suprize. clare decided that she needed to move fast. with a twist and a pop,she was at three rows away. surrounded by beans and other veg enwrapped in tin. she picked up a tin of spam , pointed her wand at it and and said.....ENGORGIO.. "How rude to just apparate away from me" Bellatrix said to herself. "I even tried to start a conversation!"
Bellatrix looked again to the shining packets of crisps, she longed to taste some of them, but she knew that she had to go after Clare. It was her job and she couldn't very well pass up the oppertunity of taking on one of the Order one-on-one.
She turned away from the crisps, giving them one last fleeting look of desire before she started her hunt for Clare 'the bunny' Clearwaters.
Bellatrix had peeked down a few isles but there was no sign of Clare yet. When she came to the third one she saw rows and rows of shiny things, she thought she had found another isle full of crisps. Greedily she lunged at the shelves, grabbing the first shiny thing she could reach. Almost immediately she realised that they weren't crisps at all, but vegetables wrapped in tins - how perculiar. She placed the tin she was holding back on the shelf and turned it slightly so that the teeth marks she had just made in it weren't visable.
Bellatrix looked up and saw Clare stood at the other end of the isle holding a giant tin, with the words SPAM written across it. She was doubled over laughing at Bellatrix for sinking her teeth into a tin of - what was it again? She looked at the shelf - Green Giant. Bellatrix was astounded, how had the Muggles managed to get hold of a green giant? And how the hell had they managed to fit him into a tin that size?
Bellatrix shouted to Clare, "What are you doing down here, Bugs? Looking for tinned carrots?"
Clare had stopped laughing, she looked up at Bellatrix with a scowl on her face. Clare aimed the can of SPAM at Bellatrix and sent it soaring through the air toward her. Bellatrix pointed her wand at the can of SPAM and yelled, "REDUCTO!" there was a sudden explotion, followed by a tinned meat shower. clare laughted at the shocked look on bellas face , all of her precius crisps were covered in spam. the look changed to a deadly expresion. clare had to decied , stay and get her butt kicked for ruining crisps , or go home and get drunk with girls.
Clare decieded on the latter , go home.with a twist and a pop she appereted the the check outs. Bellatrix was furious, her long black hair was full of smelly, sticky meat. She looked around for Clare and just saw the swish of pajama as she disappeared, "ARRRRGGGGHHHH!!" Bellatrix cried. "This is war!"
She turned on her heel and began to look for Clare again, if she wasn't cranky before - she most definitely was now. Not only had she been kept from her crisps, she had also been showered with meat produce.
