Drop Hogwarts
By Draegan
Chapter One
Elemental Calling
The corridors of Hogwarts were vacant, mice scuttling along every here and there, scanning for food. Outside, the sun was setting, disappearing behind the horizon like a scene behind a curtain at the theatre. The students were all hiding away in their common rooms, celebrating the victory of Griffindor over the Quidditch Cup, snatching it from Slytherin's grasp.
Sixteen-year-old Harry Potter rested on the shoulders of over a dozen jovial people, all shouting their congratulations. Harry was still wearing his muddy Quidditch costume, and so were his other team mates, scattered across the room, all sitting happily on shoulders, being passed from person to person.
The party was the most amazing party Harry had ever experienced. His mouth tasted of delicious Blood-Beer, and his heart was beating to the loud music roaring over the cheery screaming like a lion.
Everybody was chanting "Harry! Harry!" after singing the heroine chorus.
"When young Harry first came to Griffindor,
We always knew he'd win,
He pushed the Slytherin's to the floor,
He is the Griffindor King!"
Harry loved every second of it.
Then, as if the sun had suddenly been snuffed out like a candle flame, everything went dark, the music came to a standstill and everybody was consumed by silence, as if the volume of the world had been turned down.
Suddenly, echoing across the air like a dreamy calling, somebody sang loudly, but beautifully in the distance.
"Mi garnath rack sett Bishgal,
Ceer kartws lashda re bitsana!
Monde tirnak sharrash tarabzan,
Mi kwru gel rack sett Bishgal qan!
"Mez quentos rack sattbetni,
Yu yole quel wett sett rabishtach,
Chachni ak swkkce re reed-lez,
Re quarnoz tu ze batni!"
"Bishgal!"
Once again, everything fell silent, and the odd student muttered 'Oh, Fuck!"
After a long pause, as if everybody had suddenly died, or everything had suddenly died, the earth seemed to pounce alive.
Outside roared a powerful gust, and the rain hammered over Hogwarts like bullets.
The ground began to shake, and fall, taking the students screaming with it. There was somehow a giant earthquake, and there was no way that could happen! How!
Harry simply fell, the earth racing away form him, screaming, "Fucking hell!"
