(Author's Note: Sorry I haven't updated for so long. You know how it is, school and whatnot. Also my computer died so I had to wait until I could get a new one. Anyway, enjoy the story.)

Harry and Mary Sue were sitting in a compartment in the middle of the train... this has already been established, can we move on now? Anyway... The train was moving towards Hogwarts very slowly, almost as if it was using Dial-up or something. Or a Mac... or even worse... Vista! Back on topic now, Harry was contemplating something or other when Mary Sue spoke up.

"Ivan,"

"Yes?" replied Harry.

"I like you"

"OK, starting to creep me out. You barely know me. Why is it you like me?"

"You're Russian"

"OK.... That's an odd fetish. Are you some kind of russophile or something?"

"Um..............."

As Mary Sue was trying to answer, a letter was flown into the compartment by a generic owl. It landed in Harry's lap and he tried to read it, but Mary Sue grabbed it out of his hands before he could finish, and this is what she read:

Dear Ivan,

It's going to be a boring year without you here. Did I tell you about Aleksandr and Anna? I'll have to tell you later. Write when you get settled in.

--Vladimir

And this is what the letter actually said:

Harry,

Meet me in the Entrance Hall first thing.

--Snape

Harry snatched the letter back and read it. He decided it wasn't worth worrying about and resolved to have a nap, or at least get so stoned he didn't care. He turned to face Mary Sue.

"Can I still have that joint?" he asked.

"No, Slytherins don't smoke pot, remember?"

"Dammit,"

(Author's Note: I found a few mistakes in previous chapters, it's the Rhinoceros Party, not the Hippopotamus Party, and I misspelled 'our' in chapter two, near the top of the page. I know this is a really short chapter, I just don't have any ideas at the moment.)
