Okay, so I had to do an assignment for school where I record myself reading 3 short stories I made up. I already picked 2 of my older ones, so I had to make up one more on the spot. The other two are: "Tantulus Just Can't Learn His Lesson, which is for Percy Jackson, and My TARDIS, a crossover for Librarians and Doctor Who.
All the characters are not my characters...
Harry was bored. He and Hermione had rescued Buckbeak ok, but now they had to just sit around and wait. Apparently they had been in the Shrieking Shack for about a half-hour.
He got so bored he started carving an intricate design into a small rock that really meant nothing. When he was finished, he slipped it into his pocket and turned to Hermione. "How much longer?"
Hermione checked her watch. "About one minute has passed."
Harry sighed and picked up another rock. One down, 29 to go.
After about 6 more rocks, Hermione stood up. She went over to Buckbeak, who nuzzled into her outstretched hand. Harry sighed when he realized he wouldn't be able to fit many more rocks into his pockets, so he started picking the bark off a stick.
Hermione sat down again. "You know, we could always play a game."
"Sure. How 'bout I spy?"
"Sounds good. I spy with my little eye... something green."
"Dang it, Hermione, we're surrounded by leaves!"
"I didn't say it was a leaf."
"Please let it not be a single blade of grass!"
Hermione laughed. "No, it's nothing that difficult!"
"Hmmm... how 'bout... my eyes?"
"No. Try again."
Harry looked around. He noticed a Slytherin banner hanging on Hogwarts' wall. "That banner?"
Hermione looked where he was pointing. "Yup, that's it."
"Okay, my turn." Harry made a show of looking around. "I spy with my little eye... something grey."
Hermione glanced over her shoulder. "Buckbeak?"
"Dang it, how'd you guess so fast?"
"I'm magical!"
Harry snorted. "Aren't we all, my friend."
Hermione laughed. "Okay, now my turn. I spy with my little eye... something that looks exactly like you!"
Harry looked towards the Whomping Willow to see his past self exiting with everyone else. "Looks like we're done waiting. Come on."
Slightly ridiculous, I know. But it was fun to write.
