Pebbles are the Root of All Evil

Chapter 1: It's called a one-shot for a reason.

Harry Potter was having a jolly old time strolling down Diagon Alley. All was well. The sky was a beautiful blue, and birds sang in the trees.

Until a tiny little pebble hit him in the back of his head.

"Ouch, that really hurts!" he yelled to no one in particular.

He turned around. Another pebble was flung at him. He heard rustling in the bushes as the thrower of pebbles hid.

"I'm gonna kill you!" screamed Harry, rushing towards the only clump of bushes he could find.

But the suspect was not there.

Harry broke into a run and tore around a corner.

He could hear footsteps following him.

He whirled around, grabbing at thin air. It must be an invisibility cloak! he thought.

Finally, he made contact, as another pebble whooshed towards his eye.

It hit him.

He instantly recoiled. A tiny drop of blood trickled down his face.

"Bloody hell! That hurts!" he screeched.

He grabbed again, once again making contact.

He ripped off the invisibility cloak to reveal Professor Flitwick.

"Umm," the Professor squealed, then he tottered away.

Harry gripped his eye and plodded down the street. He officially hated pebbles now, along with Professor Flitwick.

Short but odd (that's what I use instead of sweet, hehe). Hope you liked it!
