It was a grey, cloudy day which perfectly matched Gabby's mood. She was wrapped in her cloak, her feet stuffed into her soft boots. Gabby had sent Ryan an owl, asking him to meet her at the edge of the forest as, to be honest, Gabby couldn't face going in there alone, even though she knew that Ryan wouldn't be happy that she wasn't resting. Gabby had the feeling that Brooke would appear as well, she seemed to crop up everywhere.
Gabby knew she should have been in the hospital wing for a couple more days at least, but her inability to remember what had happened was driving her mad, so she had slipped out and left the castle, retracing her steps for that day.
Gabby sighed looking around, Ryan wasn't there yet so Gabby settled down with her back to a tree to wait. Gabby could feel her wand in her pocket and while she was waiting, she ran through the spells she had leaned for Brooke to reassure herself.
Although Gabby needed to know what had happened that day in the forest, she also feared knowing. Vannah had said that it was her who started it, and although Gabby didn't trust Vannah, she had planted the seed that caused that worry to bloom and consume her mind. Gabby hugged her knees, trying to focus on anything but what she was about to find out, or she knew she would chicken out.

Brooke didn't look up at the sky, it didn't bother her that it was cloudy it was actually quite nice. She wasn't really dressed up today, instead she was wearing a sparkling white tank top, short white shorts with the word gryffindor across her butt (she had ordered them special as a show of house spirit and a joke) and white tennis shoes. She was going out to practice in the forest because cheerleading or even soccer, the other sport she sometimes indulged in, wasn't exactly something the student population really understood. In one motion she swooped her hair up into a pony tail as she neared the trees, just in time to see Gabby of all people standing there. She walked over and crossed her arms "Nice to see you out of bed and will you please explain why you are lazying around here instead of doing something productive with your life.

Ryan had got Gabby's owl just as he was getting out of bed. He went down to the forest and saw gabby sitting up against a tree. He was a little upset that she had left the hospital wing but he decided that she didn't need to hear complaining right now. He walked up to her and stood next to her "Hey sweetie."

Gabby ignored Brooke, a little annoyed that her premontitions had come true. Instead, she walked over to ryan and hugged him, "Hi honey, thanks for coming" Gabby smiled at Ryan, but her face soon clouded over. "I need to know what happened it's driving me crazy" Gabby said quietly, holding Ryan's hand for support.

Ryan held Gabby's hand "I know baby. I have been trying to find out but so far I haven't found anything."

Gabby turned her head to look at the forest, shivering slightly. "It's been haunting my dreams, it's almost like I just can't grasp the memory before it flits out of reach. I thought that maybe coming back here, it might jog my memory." Gabby felt she had been rude to Brooke, but didn't know how to apologise so she kept silent.

Brooke went into the splits, ignoring the existence of Ryan completely. "Can't you figure out any good charms to get your memory back." She said leaning forward to stretch out, she really did want to kill whoever had hurt Gabby and before that could happen she needed to know who it was that she was after. Because well Gabby didn't exactly only have one enemy and going after everyone who had something against her might get complicated.

Ryan sighed and nodded "Maybe, but you need to be careful just in case. Thank you for getting me before you tried to go in there."

"I don't want to go in there," Gabby said, wrinkling her nose slightly, "but it's the only way," turning to Brooke she replied, "funnily enough magic's not my favourite thing at the moment, in the last week, its given me a new scar and nearly killed me." Gabby had snapped a little, tense because she was about to enter the forest. "I'm sorry Brooke, I'm just a bit wound up at the moment" She said in an apologetic tone. Turning to Ryan she said, "Vannah said I was having a nightmare and was scared of a unicorn. But I wouldn't get freaked out by a horse, and I thought I had come down here earlier, so I wouldn't have been asleep." Gabby rubbed her temples, trying to bring back what had happened that day. She leaned into Ryan's body slightly for support.

Ryan put his arms around Gabby "Don't think about anything Vannah said because I promise you its all a lie."

Brooke jumped up to her feet, "Personally I think that interrogating this Vannah girl is the best way to go, but there is also no way that I am going to let you be freaked out by a forest." Brooke didn't even ever fear people, respect that they might have better weaponry then she did but fear was a useless emotion. "Ok lets start with the basics, who hates you that the Vannah girl would cover for." It was simple, unless of course Vannah had done it herself but then there were ways to figure out if a wand had been used.

"Slytherins, Storm" she replied absently, Gabby's face darkened but only for a second. "I know honey," Gabby replied to Ryan. "Come on, let's go" Gabby said with a sigh, leading Ryan to the edge of the forest. Just before they entered the solemn tranquility of the forest Gabby paused, drawing in a breath.
((sorry its slightly godmoding but otherwise it would take so long))

Ryan had decided long ago to ignore the other girl so he followed Gabby to the edge of the forest "Ready?"

Brooke followed her eyes surveying everything, a dark and steely tent making them flash. At least now she had a possible name but that wasn't enough she needed facts that could be followed unto there proper conclusion. She needed evidence, because evidence would make her story much more convincing when she explained how she had gotten into a fight with whoever it was.

Gabby pushed her breath out, and gently squuezed Ryan's hand. "Yes, I think I know where I might have gone" Gabby said, thinking of a particular grove in the forest. She glanced back at Brooke to see if she was coming.
