Chapter 9:Hermiones big prank
Nicole and Hermione sat on their beds waiting for Mr. Tittle to enter.
The door swung open and Mr. Tittle barged in.
" 'ell ladies do you care to explain"? He angrily questioned them.
" er...well you see professor," Hermione began.
Mr. Tittle wondered over to an empty chair and sat down.
Hermione continued, "I was going to the bathroom and this 'thing' startled me, so I ran back here and woke Nicole."
"Right out of a dead sleep...well I wasn't dead or anything I was just sleeping heavily...you know like the dead..." she quickly shut her mouth due to the scowl Hermione shot her way.
" 'o on," Mr. Tittle sighed impatiently.
"And...we jumped out the window and ended up in Malfoys room. You see I was afraid because rumor has it that this house is haunted," Hermione explained.
" 'ell I'm pretty sure I can piece the rest together," Mr. Tittle rose and exited the room.
"Well that was easy," Nicole smiled.
"I doubt thats the end of it," Hermione replied plopping her head onto her pillow. " Let's just hope he doesn't go to Snape about this or we'll be on the first class express home."
"Ohh first class sounds nice," Nicole giggled.
Before you could say Bertie Bots every flavor Beans, the girls were fast asleep...(like the dead).
The next morning Harry and Ron joined them in the dinning hall.
"So what happened," Hermione asked anxiously.
"Well when we get back to school Harry and I have two months of polishing trophies," Ron groaned.
"It could've been a lot worse you know," Hermione scolded them. "He could've went to Snape."
After a long lecture from Hermione, Harry leaned towards Hermione and spoke in a hushed voice.
"So Hermione when do you intend to tell us what you have planned?"
"I was just about to bring that up," she smirked. "The ingredients I had you collect are for a potion. The Boonan potion."
Nicole, Harry, and Ron in unison replied, "huh".
"Don't you read at all," she replied obviously annoyed. "This potion will bring back the spirits of witches and wizards who have died in this house," she smiled cleverly. "You see..." she paused. Snape drifted past them wearing a scowl. Hermione leaned in closer and the others followed her lead. She continued "You see the rumors of this house being haunted aren't true but what if we made them true? The Professors and the students would be scared out of their wits," she laughed.
"Hermione not all spirits are good. Some will hurt you," Harry warned her.
"I'm ten steps ahead of you. I did a little research and all of the spirits here came from a long line of good wizards. Even Linus borgandor's spirit is said to be here."
"When are you going to make the potion," Ron questioned.
"We're going to make it tonight. Meet me in the girls bathroom at eleven o clock sharp..."
"Why does it have to be in the girls bathroom all the time," Harry whined.
"Because the girls bathroom is a pretty pink and it has those free hand wipes that smell like roses and they have a pretty pink couch and..." Nicole continued to explain why the girls bathroom was much better and the others zoned her out.
"Just meet in there at eleven," Hermione finished and with that she got up and returned to her room. Nicole followed.
