The Strange Looking One Part 2
"Stop! He's innocent!" Called a femine voice. Silence swept over the court room, as a cloaked figure walked into the room. The two girls behind Harry relaxed, and smiled slightly when they saw her.
The girl pulled off her robes to revel one of the most beautiful and deadly looking girls that Harry had ever seen.
Half of the girl's hair was jet black - the other was platinum white. She was tall and very pale, dressed like a muggle goth, with kneehigh black boots, black miniskirt with fishnet stockings, and a black boob tube. Her face was very chisled, and looked very solem. Her eyes were blacker than her hair, with a hint of rage in her eyes - red.
Her face was by far the most frightening.
It was as if someone has used her face as a drawing canvas.
A vine had grown up her left cheek and curled around her left eye.
While a sleek black panther was frozen mid attack above her right.
Harry turned his head slightly to catch the reactions of the other people in the courtroom. He saw Rita Skeeter with her quill, flying through page after page of parchment, no dount cooking up another lie.
Dumbledore was...smiling. Harry blinked and looked again. He craned his neck and looked at Sirius, who was looking like he had seen Lord Vordemort slip into the room.
Fudge regained his voice. "May I help you, young lady?"
The girl nodded. She glidded down the asile between the peus, until she was standing right in front of him.
"I have evidence I wish to present to the courtroom." Said her voice. It sound...familiar, though Harry couldn't place it.
Fudge looked like bird ruffling its feathers.
"For or against?" He demanded.
"For." Her voice echoing around the room. Everyone stared in awe, and the girl just smiled slightly at their reations and gently placed a hand on her hip pocket, where a small bulge was moving.
"Wo...would you take that stand then please, young lady." Stammered Sirius' defence attourney, Bigus Dickus (appologies to Monty Python!!). Bigus Dickus was the best lawyer money could buy and was a hard man that never shed a tear. Seeing him reduced to this increased Harry's curoisoty of this girl.
She walked over to the box and sat gracefully in it, her eyes scaning the people in the courtroom.
After the girl said the Oath that she would tell the truth, Bigus Dickus asked her her name.
There was a hush over the court. Even Rita Skeeter had stopped writing.
The girl took a deep breath and said, "My name is Esmerelda. Esmerelda Black."
They all stared in silence.
Comments? Flames? Praise? Insults? Plz review!
Boring Disclaimer: I own nothing except the three girls (have you forgotten the other two already? Shame on you!!) and the plot. (So don't even think about it.)
OK, what does everyone think about it being in little pieces that come often, or big bits that don't come as often?
