RULE 3 - It is not necessry to yell "BURN!" whenever Snape takes points away from Gryffindor
Now it was Ailish's turn to give a piggy-back, so with Abi on-board they ventured into the dark dungeons. Abi was making car noises, and even the occasional police siren could be heard. The dungeons were damp and cold so their pretend super-villain capes would not keep them warm, that's for sure. Chatter could be heard up ahead, Snape was always late letting his classes in. Just as the girls reached the group of students the door opened.
"Good morning class" he drawled. By the sound of it he had never had a good morning in his life. "Come in" as he said this, he stepped back to allow people to enter the room.
"Hi, Sir!" Abi and Ailish smiled at him as they walked in, they were far to cheerful for him, but it wasn't like he was gonna punnish them. His reply was just a weak smile.
Everyone took their seats and removed their books from their bags. Professor Snape made his way to the front of the classroom. On his way he had to pass Neville Longbottom, a boy that was very afraid of him. Of course, Neville fell off his chair and the whole class started to laugh. He got up, blushing, and sat back on his chair staring at his hands.
"Silence!" Snape called, and the class went silent. "5 points from Gryffindor" He added.
"BUUUUUURN!" The two troublesome girls shouted and then shared a high five. They only received a warning glare from Snape.
"Sir, that's not fair! Neville didn't do anything wrong and -" Harry began, but was cut short.
"Another 5 points from Gryffindor" With that all of the Gryffindors let out a groan.
"BUUUUUURN!" They shouted again. This time, Snape turned around and continued with his lesson.
"So, today we will be making Veritaserum. Who can tell me what Veritaserum is?" Snape asked.
As always, only Hermione Granger put her hand up. Abi and Ailish knew the answer, they just couldn't be bothered to raise their hand. Everyone, even Hermione, knew that Snape wouldn't pick her to answer, but the thing that confused everyone is why she still put her hand up.
"Anyone?" Snape said as if no one had their hand up. He hated Gryffindors, and that was what the girls loved about him. "Veritaserum -" He began.
"Is a very powerful truth serum that is most commonly used in interrogation. The potion effectively forces the drinker to answer any question put to them truthfully, though there are some difficult methods of resistance." Hermione finnished. Everyone in the room was staring at her - she had never called out in class, especially not when a teacher was talking. Snape had a shocked look on his face.
"How dare you Miss Granger! That little stunt has just earned you 1 weeks detention and 20 points from Gryffindor" He was now smirking at the umimpressed look on Hermione's face.
"DOUBLE BUUUUUUURN!" The girls exclaimed, gaining them dirty looks from the whole of Gryffindor 5th year. They just laughed and showed their apreciation by sticking their fingers up. Just then the bell rang, and the girls had already packed up their things so they swept out of the room.
"Later losers!" They called over their shoulder.
