Hogwarts Express (3-2006) Challenge Update
The author’s challenge is to write a story to include:

2) There appears to be no adults on the train except the engineer, therefore the entire investigation is to be accomplished by students.

There appears to be no adults on the train…there could be a whole caboose full of Aurors. Or a couple of Order members with the engineer keeping their eyes on the tracks up ahead. It’s just that the prefects, and even Harry, may not know that. This may open up some possible ideas you may not have thought of.

You are so sneaky. Alas, I have already submitted my story. I am hoping that there are more submitted soon!



Sir Ollivander came out of the woodwork on 2006.06.15 - 03:57PM to say:

Khrys - just trying to keep the Challenge interesting...and alive.



Khrys came out of the woodwork on 2006.06.15 - 04:48PM to say:

I sincerely hope that it stays alive! People, send in your stories!!! We need more, lots more! This is such a great prompt, I know that people out there have to have had some really great ideas (other than the three already posted...) Write 'em up, send 'em in. You gots time before the deadline people, come on, put pen to paper and get creatin'. *I'm going to put my soapbox away now, as I have to return it to Rockeye later...*



dramaqueen came out of the woodwork on 2006.06.15 - 05:39PM to say:

Unfortunately, I've genuinely got nothing this time. I actually only wrote a challenge story once, but it was incredibly violent and had way mature themes throughout. So it never made its way onto the site. It was for the one where Ginny contacts Harry from jail... *shudders* That was my very dark fic.



dramaqueen came out of the woodwork on 2006.06.15 - 09:04PM to say:

Wait...does it have to be a death eater that died? *has the beginnings of a plot floating around* Can it be...somebody else?



Sir Ollivander came out of the woodwork on 2006.06.15 - 10:48PM to say:

Dramaqueen - "Shortly after leaving Hogsmeade station, a Death Eater is found dead on the train." Well...how do we know the dead body is a Death Eater? Black robe, white mask, dark mark on forearm. Can these be faked? Got a trick up your sleeve?



Khrys came out of the woodwork on 2006.06.15 - 11:51PM to say:

Ooh. Go for it Dramaqueen. I am a huge Agatha Christie fan and I love your work. I can't wait to read what yuo have floating around. Please!



SilverPhoenix came out of the woodwork on 2006.06.17 - 11:32AM to say:

All right people! Let's get this challenge going!



dramaqueen came out of the woodwork on 2006.06.17 - 12:45PM to say:

*flushes deeply* Thank you Krhys. It's almost finished now, so it'll probably be up in the next couple days. And if it isn't...then hit me. Because I'm leaving on Tuesday and not coming back until after the challenge closes.



SilverPhoenix came out of the woodwork on 2006.06.17 - 02:16PM to say:

Drama you better finish it! I hope it's a drama/angst? I'd like a little competition! That goes to anyone: There needs to be some more competition for the drama category! Please go right ahead and write a drama story!



Khrys came out of the woodwork on 2006.06.17 - 04:25PM to say:

I agree with SilverPhoenix. People, Let's go!! This is a great prompt with room for unique ideas. Where are all the talented story writers?? (Of course, three of them have already posted their stories...but where are the rest??) Dramaqueen- I'll give you until Monday when I get off work, then I'm sending a horde of Garden Gnomes to attack your flower beds until you post your story. I can't wait to read it.



lucky_black_cat came out of the woodwork on 2006.06.17 - 05:00PM to say:

I've got a great plot - and really dramatic, if I do say so myself. My finals will be over on Tuesday so hopefully I'll be able to start writing the story then.



Khrys came out of the woodwork on 2006.06.17 - 06:45PM to say:

Woo hoo! I can't wait to see what you have. D'oh. I though finals were over already... *kicking myself for pestering people while they are still trying to concentrate on finals* There's still plenty of time left!



lucky_black_cat came out of the woodwork on 2006.06.18 - 10:26AM to say:

Yeah, it seems like everyone's finals have finished except for mine. Looking on the bright side of this, though, I'll say that the bitterness about exams has helped my sarcasm improve in ways I'd never thought possible...



dramaqueen came out of the woodwork on 2006.06.18 - 04:10PM to say:

The Body In The Closet has been submitted by yours truly. Drama, but nothing to rival Miss Phoenix over there.



SilverPhoenix came out of the woodwork on 2006.06.18 - 08:22PM to say:

I saw that it's been submitted! I'm going to read it ASAP! As to the not rivaling--I'm sure it does. You're too modest, Drama. Oh, :P and it's Miss Silver, never Miss Phoenix, Miss Drama.



casually_a_weasley came out of the woodwork on 2006.06.18 - 10:55PM to say:

Well, I'm going to submit mine soon. As soon as I write I mean. Which hopefully gets done. I just have to get my busy-ness and lazyness.



Spenser Hemmingway came out of the woodwork on 2006.06.19 - 10:31AM to say:

My story is almost complete, and it is a bit different...but not for me. The victim is the British Mystery genre, and the killer is Spenser. Murder most mischievous (even if we're not judging that catagory this time)! Eric B.
