((OOC: I didn’t know he was in disguise. Sorry about that.
. Changed my post.))
Steppe turned, the tension and silence was starting to become unnerving, her insides annoyed by it. Most of her anger had turned into a diluted and rancid liquid of emotion that had no name but seemed dull.
She blinked her eyes, when she herd Pansy speak. Pansy. Her smile and everything about her, her hair, even her looks. Pansy seemed ice queen attractive. Her perfect skin, and eyes, even her facial expressions. Steppe tended to avoid Pansy in school most of the time, in part due to the fear she held in her heart whenever she saw her.
Pansy had her own gang of girls in Hogwarts, and not only were the gorgeous, but they all held their pureblood status above everything else.
Steppe allowed the memory to softly dry away like breeze against glass.
As Miss Du-Hunt gave Pansy her approval, Steppe turned to look at the rest of the group casually.
Steppe wanted to participate but could not come up with any ideas. Her mind as usual seemed empty of other thoughts she was trying to get her mind to function, whipping away Henrys presence and her thoughts of Hallie, she tried to focus once more. She allowed her mind to go over the facts.
If Pansy’s article was going to cause civil unrest and stir the masses…What the dark haired stranger stated was true. If the Order or the Ministry was not the enemy…
then who was? Who ever this enemy was he wanted to marry muggles with purebloods and half-bloods… Steppe’s boiling contempt calmed realizing she was not the only one who was annoyed by the silence and vagueness, a dull feeling entered her heart.
So the masses could rebel, and if the masses rebel then, whoever the enemy was would be forced to show his face to the nation.. the light bulb in her brain turned on.
Steppe opened her mouth to speak, and found her lips dry and a sour taste was lingering in it.
“What if we caused a distraction?” she opened her mouth, only to realize she was thinking aloud. It was too late to take the words back.
Well now time to back my words up...“Miss Parkinson-Nott is going to make the masses turn into a frenzy,” Steppe continued.
“So what if we did something… to cause the Ministry and other curious fellows to lose focus,” Steppe paused knowing her idea was still vague, still it was as if lubricating oil had been placed in the gears of her brain, the idea came flowing into her head and out of her mouth faster. “Well, I am not saying to commit a crime in broad daylight, but if we cause just a few crimes, here and there, (she placed her hands in front of her as if holding an invisible cup in her hands) in the middle of the all the mess, then (Steppe shook her hands, eyeing the invisible air between them) nor the Ministry nor the Order will know what or who our real target is,” Steppe’s hands dropped to the table as she turned to look at Miss Du Hunt.
She tapped the table with the nail of her index finger. “Hopefully in the middle of the ‘distractions’(she played with the ends of her scarf) if the masses go crazy enough to rebel. The person who made that law will not be satisfied and will be forced to show his face to the public, and then we can nab him!(she hit the table with the side of her fist),” she finished looking towards Miss Du Hunt for approval. Well her idea was out now… she didn’t even know if it was a good idea or if it even made much sense. This was always one of the reasons why she didn’t voice her opinions much in these meetings.
She turned to toy with the edges of her purple scarf, then turned back to look at Miss Du Hunt.
