Kaylie giggled and said "you don't want to know Edwin... trust me. So whats up? " she asked.

Tav chuckled at Kaylie's statement and at Edwin's confused facial expression.

"I'm avoiding my homework." Edwin stated carefully, digging his hands into his pockets and pulling out two slightly melted mars bars. He handed one to each older teen. "And trying to find something else ta do."

Kaylie smiled, thanked Edwin for the mars bars and looked at Tav for a moment.

"What do ya think, should we lt let him come with us?" she asked with a smirk.

"Let me come where?" Edwin asked, eyebrows rising and the corners of his mouth twitching happily.
Tav chuckled. "Sure. He can help us get into rooms."

At this Edwin's smile faded. "What are you two gonna be doing?"

Kaylie giggled, "Nothing to bad Edwin don't worry, hmm Have ya had the pleasure of meeting Jordon Wycliffe?" she asked.

Edwin's face fell. "Yeah, he was the one that dumped a bucket of water on Mama when she was a kitty."

Tav looked indignant. "He did? I thought you did that?" Edwin shrugged.
"I said I did because he was gonna kill me if I told... So what are we going to do to him?"

Kaylie winked, "To add to his list of crimes, nothing harmful though don't worry, though I say it is a bit creepy... Tav wants to sneak into the professors rooms and take there photos" she said.

Edwin's eyes widened. "Their pictures?!" he exclaimed. In a softer voice, he continued. "Papa doesn't always were his nighty...And Esis... she sleeps weird too. Uncle Sevastyan only wears pants and..." Tav put up a hand to stop him.

"We get the picture, Edwin. Go no further."

Kaylie laughed, "Perhaps it isn't a great idea Tav" she said giggling, "We might walk in on someone" she said raiseing her eye brow, indicating to the show they had walked in one earlier.

"Walking into someones private chambers there is no telling what we might encounter" she said disolving in to a fit of giggles.

Tav was quickly disliking his "fool-proof" plan... Kaylie and Edwin both were right. Who knew what they might encounter and did they want to actual snap a picture of whatever it was they happened to see!? Tav wasn't so sure... ack, he thought, where was Val when he needed him?

"That's just something we're gonna have to work around." he muttered, ignoring the green look Edwin gave him.

Kaylie chuckle walking up behind him and wraping her arms around his shoulders.

"And how do you suguest we do that? I for one don't want to see Professor McKevin without a nighty on" she said.

Tav flushed. "Yeah...well maybe we could." An idea struck him. "We could charm the camera to float in and take the picture. We wouldn't have to see inside the room then."

Kaylie was still blushing as well, still finding the idea of Tav's slightly creepy, despite how funny it sounded "I guess we could that.... but what if we don't like what we see on the pictures?" she asked.

Tav was on the edge teetering over... holy carrots with wheels! why couldn't things just work out for once. They always did in the movies... and always did for Wycliffe.

"We won't look at them..."

Kaylie chuckled again, "Well alright... I do hope we doing capture anything to embarrassing... I would feel bad for the staff then" she said.

"What do you think about the craziness Edwin? " she asked while resting her head on Tav's shoulder, look very amused with the hole thing.

Tav nodded. "Of course not. We'll run a handy "rating" spell over them. If they flash red then we wont use them." He beamed at his own genius.

Edwin shrugged. "I try not to think about stuff like this..." he murmured, despite his smile.
"What time?"

Tav rolled his eyes. "Midnight, Edwin and don't be late. We'll start with your parents...you can let us in."

Not certain Edwin cocked his head to the side. "What chambers are ya going to? Mama sleeps in her rooms and Horatio sleeps in his rooms..."

Tav raised an eyebrow. "I thought they shared." Edwin shook his head.
"No, they are heads, so they need to be in their own rooms in case of a mergancy."

"hmmm that must suck for married life eh" said Kaylie. "But I guess it makes sense I guess"

She looked at Edwin, "Do you have any ideas Edwin?" she asked.

Edwin shrugged. "I could find out where they'll be sleeping and get back ta you." Tav sighed.
"I guess that would work." he replied.

Kaylie then remembered something, "Oh hey wait... Which professors are on patrol tonight?" she said as she ran over to her book bag.

"Being a Prefect has its perks..." she said with a smirk as she brought to the patrol schedule.

She pulled out the schedule and looked at it, then looked at Tav..

"Umm Tav your Mum on Patrol tonight, from 11-3" she said, handing him the schedule.

Tav sighed. "Ah..." he was close to despair at that moment. "Why can't everyone cooperate..." he murmured.

Edwin snickered. "I'm sure Kiara would be more helpful if you told her..."

Kaylie blinked being the one out of the currant trio that didn't know the Headmistress personaly, well knew her better then the average student becuase of Tav, but to her she was either the headmistress or Tav's Mum.

"You think she would do that?"

Edwin shrugged. "I don't see why not. She's a good sport." After all, she was his sister.
"I could approach her with the question..." Tav bit his lip.

"I'm not sure, Edwin..." he muttered, pausing for a moment as several Gryffindors passed.
"Maybe she'd say no."

"Tav, my nephew..." Edwin began, folding his arms. "If there is anything I know about your mum it is this: she hates...I repeat, hates cheeky Slytherin purger wanna bes."

Kaylie giggled, it still seemed odd to her the little Edwin Delanquar was the Headmistress brother.

"I don't blame her, Wycliffe must give her a headache with all the trouble he caueses, problebly blames it on his mindless lackies so she can't pin it of him, yet it is obvious it is him because he is so cheeky about it" she said.

Kaylie thought for a moment unsure if the headmistress would help them casue the had a enemey in common or turn them in for causeing even more troubles for her.

Edwin chuckled, pulling a worn piece of paper from his pocket. "We could use this as well." he murmured, holding up a blank sheet of paper. "Ever wonder how Mama knows when students are in the Forbidden forest or are out at late?" Tav nodded.
"Here ya have it, lads and ladies." Edwin beamed. "The Rosier scroll."

Kaylie blinked, "Wow, How did you get that? did she give it to you, or did ya swip it?" she asked with a quirked eye brow.

"Either way you struck gold with that Edwin" she said said with a smile."That could be a life saver."
