Title: Too Much To Handle

By: goyankeesbooredsox's secret buddy

Special Notes: Mild yelling.

OOPS: I just realized that a couple of chapters ago, I mentioned that the girls were in the Gryffindor common room when they're really in Slytherin. My apologies. They were in the Slytherin common room.

REMINDER: None of the Harry Potter series and/or movies are mine. It would be nice, but they're not. Only Leonie, Rebecca, and any relationships formed between them and other students are form my imagination (based off real people, as you may have guessed, the other user of this account.).

START CHAPTER:

"I suppose we wake up Snape, now that is has been three weeks?" Rebecca asked at breakfast one morning, and Leonie glanced up at her from her breakfast, a noodle dangling from her mouth. It quickly slipped into her mouth, and she leaned back on the bench, giving Rebecca a hard look.

"Yeah, we should. But I think I forgot to tell you something three weeks ago," she admitted, and Rebecca raised an eyebrow. "We could have woken up Snape whenever we wanted to."

"WHAT!" Rebecca yelled, nearly leaping over the table and strangling Leonie. A smug look crossed Leonie's face as Rebecca struggled to contain herself, and she repeated what she said.

"We could have woken up whenever we wanted to. A simple charm, really," Leonie pointed out, glancing at her nails. Rebecca was still fuming, but had managed to calm down a bit. She wrung her hands in her lap, trying not to yell at Leonie.

"You said we couldn't wake him up. You said it would take three weeks," she hissed through clenched teeth, and Leonie shook her head.

"I said exactly this: No. I put him in a sleeping state. He shouldn't be out of it for another 3 weeks," Leonie nodded, still inspecting her nails. Rebecca got a confused look on her face, trying to determine how this helped Leonie's case.

"So?" she finally asked, and Leonie glanced up, it obvious that she was trying to stifle a smile.

"I meant on his own. We could do anything with our wands and he'd wake up. Create a parade of elephants or something," Leonie shrugged, leaning back to her bowl of breakfast ramen. Rebecca didn't turn back to her breakfast however, she was still steaming.

"A parade of elephants," she whispered, not believing a word Leonie or herself had just said. Leonie glanced up at Rebecca's frozen state, an eyebrow raised and yet another noodle dangling out of her mouth. Leonie put down the spoon and pulled out her wand, inspecting it and comparing it to her ramen.

"Can I borrow your wand? And yes, a parade of elephants. We could have woken him up very easily," Leonie nodded again, holding her hand out patiently. Rebecca gave Leonie her wand, unsure of what she was planning.

"Why didn't you tell me earlier?" Rebecca asked, watching Leonie compare the sizes of the wands. She clacked them together like chopsticks and a grin split her face.

"You didn't ask," Leonie pointed out blankly, and clacked the wands together again, "It's a good thing our wands are the same length. Otherwise I'd never be able to do this." She clicked them again, staring at her cup of ramen.

"Do what?" Rebecca asked, staring at the bowl of ramen with uncertainty. She never trusted Leonie with her wand, and wasn't sure why she had handed it over in the first place.

"This," Leonie grinned, and stabbed a piece of chicken floating in her bowl with the wands. She lifted to her mouth, the wands gripping the slippery food easily and popped it into her mouth. Rebecca's jaw dropped as Leonie calmly at her ramen, and she tried to grab her wand from Leonie's grasp. Sadly, Leonie had already thought of this, and had placed herself so she was just out of Rebecca's reach.

Minutes later Leonie finished and taking her own wand, tapped Rebecca's with it. Rebecca's wand glowed a bright green before returning to normal, and Leonie handed it back to Rebecca. Rebecca got a gross look on her face as she pinched her wand between her thumb and forefinger.

"Calm down. I disinfected it. Now are you coming with me or not?" Leonie asked, motioning for the door. Rebecca grasped her wand tightly and slipped it into her pocket, taking Leonie's word for it. She rose to her feet looking around the Great Hall.

"Where are we going?" she asked, glancing around. Leonie began to walk, and Rebecca jogged to keep up.

"To find Snape, of course," Leonie grinned, and Rebecca ran a little faster to stop Leonie before she headed up the staircase.

"What do you mean 'find'? " Rebecca stopped her, pinning Leonie to the wall. Leonie got an uneasy look on her face, and tried to look at anything except Rebecca's eyes. She fingered the edge of her robes and stared down at the floor.

"Well," she started, then fell silent. She tried to start again, but shut her mouth.

"Well what?" Rebecca asked, shaking Leonie slightly. "what do you mean by 'find Snape?' " She began to shake Leonie harder, until Leonie drew her wand, her eyes narrowed.

"Quit it. You shake me any harder and I'll suffer brain damage. Now, what I mean is," her voice dropped to a quiet whisper, "I forgot where I put Snape's body." She ran a nervous hand through her hair, which had turned a scared pink.

"YOU WHAT?" Rebecca screeched, shaking Leonie again. Leonie's head flopped around like a rag dolls but she slapped Rebecca harshly. Rebecca instantly dropped Leonie and her hands went up to her face where a hand shaped bruise started to form. Leonie fell to the floor, but instantly leapt to her feet, dragging Rebecca along as she raced up the stairs. They stopped behind a knight's armor, and Leonie slipped out her wand.

"Someone was coming. Anyway, there is good in all of this. Since I knew I'd forget where I put him, a tracker is attached to his robes. Now all we got to do is follow my…" Leonie left off, searching her pockets.

"What now?" Rebecca asked, watching as Leonie feverishly searched her robes.

"I lost my wand," Leonie stated simply, leaning back against the wall with a hopeless sigh. Rebecca's eyes widened to the size of saucers, and glanced around the floor. She looked back down the staircase, but saw nothing. Leonie had her face buried in her hands when Rebecca turned back around, and Rebecca swore she heard sniffling. Whack! Rebecca's hand flew across Leonie's face.

"What do you think you're doing? We're going to find your wand even if we have try pry it from a dragon's grasp. Come on and get up," Rebecca grinned, rising to her feet. Leonie stared up at her with blank eyes and blinked away her tears. She didn't pay attention to the red mark growing on her cheek, and a smile spread across her face.

"Especially if we have to pry it from a dragon's grasp," Leonie smiled, rising to her feet. The two girls made their way down the hallway, Rebecca pulling out her lighter. Leonie shot her a smirk and walked a bit faster.

"What're you doing?" Rebecca wailed, struggling to catch up.

"You do realize you only gave a red mark on my cheek but I gave you a full-fledged bruise. Do you realize how weak that makes you look?" Leonie grinned, backpedaling with long strides down the corridor. Rebecca took a moment to fully figure out what Leonie said, but when she did, her face grew a furious red and she let out a loud cry.

"YOU'LL REGRET THAT!" Rebecca screeched, charging down the hallway. Leonie let out a high-pitched cackle and turned on her heel, easily outrunning Rebecca. Rebecca struggled to run faster, but Leonie slowed to a jog and seemed to be mocking her.

"Face it, Rebecca, you'll always be weaker!" Leonie called over her shoulder.

"I'm the one with wand, you idiot!" Rebecca yelled. Leonie spurted forward again, realizing the trouble she was in when Rebecca had a wand.
