"Malfoy, I'm going to kill you." The bespectacled boy said angrily, wand at the ready. Draco couldn't take it any more. A shriek of laughter burst from his lips and his cackles would have put a fairytale witch to shame. He bent over, clutching at his stomach, hoping very much that his adversary wouldn't exhibit Slytherin traits and choose this moment to attack.

"Wh… what're you going to do, Potter," He wheezed in between screeches, "Sucker me to death!?"
