The week was sort of a blur. Classes went on as usual, and all the protesters from the day before began to carry ammunition with them everywhere. Whenever they saw Smith, they would aim and fire. The Slytherins tried to shield each other, but were blasted out of the way by angry Ravenclaws who weren't afraid to use their wands. On Monday, Smith got a Howler and 20 different insults from various students. On Tuesday, students began to mutter amongst themselves and disappeared from the corridors in large amounts. By Wednesday, Professor Smith was sure that three of the four houses were planning something. He watched and waited. Even the staff had turned against him. Although he had made his best effort to hide it, Smith was sure that he had seen Professor Flitwick throw a thumbs-up at one of the apple-launching students. Professor McGonagall gave him cold nods in the corridors instead of saying hi, and even Professor Binns stopped floating to give him a hard look whenever Smith passed through the corridors. Thursday got worse. The evacuation of Hogwarts had been planned, and the apple throwing got more and more frequent. Whenever evacuators came into Hogwarts, they were sure to get an apple to the head. And since no protests had taken place through the week, Smith was sure Friday would be a mess. Turns out, Professor Smith was right.
