Leon, Hayley and Joshua decided to spy on the three first-years, in order to find out what they were up too, and what they knew already. Joshua managed to find out that the Stone was protected by several spells, made by the teachers. Leon heard that there was a giant three-headed dog on the third floor, protecting a hatch. On a sunny morning, before their first class, Hayley, Joshua and Leon were in the library, discussing the situation and telling eachother what they found out.

"Well, there are several spells that protect the Stone", Joshua said."By the teachers, ofcourse."
"And there's a giant Cerberus-like dog on the third floor, protecting a hatch", Leon said.
"You mean, three heads and everything?"
"Yeah."
"We're so screwed..."
"How come? What do you think, we're going down that hatch to protect the Stone?"
"Yeah, that was my first thought."
"But what can the three of us do against Snape?"

Hayley frowned.

"Snape? What did I miss?"
"Well, those first-years suspect Snape. That he wants to steal the Stone, I mean."
"Why would he steal it? I mean, he's also protecting it!"
"They also say he isn't stealing it for himself."
"Seriously, if you risk your life to get your hands on the Stone, who would you steal it for?"
Joshua sighed.

"The first-years said he wanted to steal it for..V...I mean, You-know-who."
"WHAT??!!"

Leon fell off his chair.

"Snape and You-know-who? Give me a break!!"
"You never know for sure! Snape used to be a Death Eater!! Who knows, maybe he's still on His side!"
"Bullshit", Hayley said. "Snape wouldn't betray Dumbledore. Not in a million years."
"How do you know that for sure? You don't even know the guy."
"Yeah, and you've known him since you were little!!"
"That's not what I mean. I don't think we should trust him."

Hayley got out of her chair, a little pissed off, and said:

"Class starts in 5 minutes, we'd better get down to the Dungeon, I don't want detention."

They quickly grabbed their stuff, and they went to Potions class. They were the first ones in the classroom. Snape pointed his wand at the blackboard. The instructions appeared. It said "Veritaserum." Joshua started laughing. Snape glared at him. A few seconds later, the other students entered.

"If I can have your attention please. You too, Faraday!"

Snape slammed his hand on Hayley's desk.

"We're going to make Veritaserum. Who of you dunderheads can tell me what Veritaserum is?"

Hayley raised her hand. Snape looked surprised.

"Miss Faraday, you know something about potions for a change?"

The other students started laughing.

"Veritaserum is a special potion. One drop, and the one who drinks it will tell you all his or her darkest secrets. Somebody who drinks it, and is asked to answer a question concerning his personal life, will be forced to answer it with the truth, even if they don't want too."

Hayley stopped talking. Guess that book she got from Snape wasn't so bad after all. Snape looked even more surprised.

"Indeed. 5 points for Ravenclaw."

They all looked at Snape as if he was dressed in a Santa-suit. He never gave points to other houses than Slytherin.

"What are you all looking at? The instructions are on the blackboard. You can..."

The doors opened, and Atticus entered.

"Well well, mister Loveless. Too lazy to be on time in my class? That will be an essay about the Sin of Tardiness. And 5 points from Gryffindor."

Atticus shrugged, and was looking for a free desk to sit at. The only free spot was next to

Leon. But before he could sit down, Snape called him back.

"Mister Ferrell, next to mister Lawliet. Loveless, here, next to miss Faraday."
"Why, professor?"
"Because I still haven't forgotten what you did too me 4 years ago, Loveless!!"

He glared at Atticus. Atticus sat down next to Hayley.

"What DID you do too him?"
"Long story."
"Start making your potion. And if you even DARE to make something explode, Faraday, then you may clean this classroom yourself!"

Snape sat down on his desk, and took a sip of his tea. Atticus smirked. Atticus and Hayley finished the potion in half an hour, since Atticus wasn't that bad. They poured the potion into a bottle, and when Hayley wanted to bring the potion to Snape and put it on his desk, Atticus said:

"Wait!"
"What?"

Atticus got out a little bottle, that he hid underneath his cloak. When Snape wasn't looking, he poured it into their potion. He pointed his wand at the potion. It turned orange. Next he got out another, round bottle.

"Atticus, what the hell are you doing!!"

Atticus looked at Snape, who got out of his chair, and started to inspect their potion. Atticus quickly changed it back to it's original color. When Snape was inspecting Leon's and Josh's potion, that didn't look like the way it was supposed to look, Atticus changed their potion orange again. He aimed the little bottle, and threw it into the cauldron of another student. His potion exploded.

"Far-"

Then he saw it wasn't Hayley. Snape got out his wand, to empty the cauldron, and to heal the pimples that suddenly appeared on the boy's face. Atticus quickly got out of his chair, poured some of their potion into Snape's tea, and sat down again. He changed the potion back to it's original color.

"Atticus what did you do?!!"
"Just a little test."
"What if it goes wrong?!"
"Don't worry, it will go perfectly, just the way I want it."

Class was over. Snape walked towards Atticus and Hayley.

"Loveless, let's see how you managed to mess it up. Drink it."
"Why don't you drink it yourself, professor?"
"10 points from Gryffindor because you show no respect. Now drink it."
"But professor, what if I messed it up? Maybe I'll die."
"I won't mind, Loveless. Now drink it."
"I'll write as many essays as you want, if you try it, professor."
"Do you think I'm an idiot?"

Atticus wanted to answer that question, but Hayley kicked him underneath the table.

"That will be a D, Loveless."

Hayley quickly jumped into action. If Atticus got a D, so would she.

"But professor, I think Atticus just doesn't want to get poisoned!"
"Then I guess he doesn't have faith in his own abilities."

Snape walked back to his desk, and took a sip of his tea. Hayley looked at what would happen. Atticus was still smirking.

"Thank you professor."
"What?"
"For trying our potion."
"But I didn't.."

The he looked at his tea. The cup fell out Snape's hand.

"LOVELESS!!"
"Are you a virgin, professor?"
"No!!"

He quickly put his hands in front his mouth. Atticus had poured the Veritaserum in his tea.

"Who was your first?"
"Judy!"
"And who might that be?"
"A Muggle!"

Hayley slammed her head against the desk. She didn't want to hear more.

"How was it?"
"I can't remember! I was drunk!"

Class was over, but everbody wanted to stay, and listen to Atticus' questions.

"Do you have kids, professor?"
"Yes."

Snape quickly ran out of the classroom. Atticus bursted out into laughter. Hayley was relieved that Snape ran away. Even Leon had to smile. A few minutes later, McGonagall entered.

"Why are you still here?! You're supposed to be in MY classroom! 10 points from every house! Now follow me!"

Atticus sighed in relieve.

"I thought she was here because of my little 'joke.'"
"You DO know that you're in big trouble now, right?"

Atticus smiled.

"I don't care. It will be worth every single detention."

Atticus quickly left Hayley as soon as he saw that Leon and Joshua walked towards her.

"Can't believe Snape isn't a virgin anymore", Joshua said.
"Please, I don't want to know!"
"Sorry", Joshua said.
"I wonder who this 'Judy' is."
"Never mind", Hayley said.

They entered the Transfiguration classroom.

"Everybody sit down! The next one who makes a racket, WILL have detention! Today we're going to learn how to turn simple items into portkeys. Be careful not to touch them. If you succeed, you will be transported somewhere, so don't EVER touch it! The spell is "Portus."
McGonagall pointed her wand at the chair. The chair started moving a little.
"Now it's a portkey. Use the frogs in front of you to test your portkey. And also make sure you choose a destination, or else it might end up everywhere! I remember having a student who said 'China', just for fun, and was then missing for about 3 months."

Everybody started grinning. Suddenly, someone fell to the ground. It was Leon. Atticus was on top of him.

"Lawliet and Loveless!!"

The two didn't listen, and continued fighting.

"Oh dear", Joshua said.

Hayley ran towards them as soon as she saw they were moving towards the chair.

"WATCH OUT! THAT IS A PORTKEY!"

Hayley ran towards them, and before they knew, Hayley, Zack and Atticus were gone, and the chair too.

"My God", McGonagall said. "I didn't say a destination yet!"
"Meaning they could have ended up EVERYWHERE", Joshua said with a grin.
"No, luckily for them, they will be transported somewhere in Hogwarts."
"Well, what's the worst place you could end up here?"

Joshua didn't want to hear the answer. Because he already knew.

Meanwhile, the first-years were having Potions. Everybody was surprised, since Snape looked completely different. He looked like he was 20 years old, and all his ripples were gone. He found out that Atticus also threw something in his tea to make him younger. He would get that brat one day. Only ONE excuse, and he would be in detention for a VERY long time. Suddenly, out of nowhere, a chair fell on the ground. Snape looked up. He saw two people appear, who were falling down. They were holding eachother, and fell right on top of him. He got out his wand and used a spell to get them off. Before he could get a closer look at their faces, a third person appeared, and fell right into his arms. Hayley opened her eyes, and saw the younger Snape.

"HOLY FUCK PROFESSOR??!! WHAT HAPPENED TO YOU??!!"
"FARADAY!!! WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE!!"

Snape quickly let go of Hayley. She giggled.

"Well, we were...um...in Transfigurtation class, and professor McGonagall was teaching us how to make a portkey. And she turned her chair into a portkey. Atticus and Leon started fighting, and touched the chair by accident. I tried to get them away from the chair, but was dragged with it too."

Snape was angry. His facial expression didn't change, but that look in his eyes said enough.

"Faraday!! My office after your class is over! And also 10 points from Ravenclaw!"

Then he turned towards Leon and Atticus.

"Lawliet, Loveless. You're still idiots and dunderheads. I can see nothing has changed in those 4 years. You should've known better after they transported you to Durmstrang, Loveless. But when I heard they kicked you out, I already had a feeling this would not end well."

Leon looked at Atticus.

"You were EXPELLED from Durmstrang!!"

Atticus nodded.

"Loveless, detention for 3 months, and 30 points from Gryffindor! Lawliet, you get another month of detention as a bonus, and also 10 points from Ravenclaw!"
"Ah man! Why do I get 30 points and he gets 10?!!"
"Because of your little Veritaserum prank today. Now get back to your class! And the next one who comes bursting in my classroom, can count on it that I'll get him expelled!"

Before they left the classroom, Atticus said:

"And by the way kids, he's still under influence of Veritaserum. He will tell the truth to ANYTHING you ask him."
"LOVELESS!"

Atticus started running.

"LOVELESS! YOU WILL PAY!!"
