Still don't own anything but my characters.
"This is going to be so funny." Kaylee laughed.
"Yeah, I just hope we got enough of them. But it was really hard to get this much." Krystella said, holding out the jar of slugs they's spent all of Sunday morning collecting from the grounds as they rounded a corner.
A loud scream was heard from behind the jar, Rhea pushed Krystella's arms down, "Oh hey Ginny, why so jumpy?"
"Colin a-attacked last night." she said before running past the four.
"Who was that?" Kaylee asked.
"My little sister Ginny, she's not normally that jumpy. We should find out more about this attack, store our little treasures until dinner and find out what she's on about."
"Eet sounds good to me." Yasmin agreed.
When they entered the common room there was only one person, a forth year they thought might be called Rebbecca Watson. The other three pushed Rhea forward.
"Excuse me." the girl looked up, "Do you happen to know what happened last night? Some attack or something...?"
"Oh yeah, Amelia said some Gryffindor first year got attacked by something last night, ended up petrified- just like Filches cat. Weird huh?"
"Yeah, that is kinda creepy." Krystella murmured.
"The rest of the school probably thinks it's someone from our house, don't let others break up the trust our house has though."
"Of course not, thanks for the info." Rhea smiled before walking up to their dormitory so they had some privacy.
"That's really creepy." Kaylee said when they were seated on their beds.
"Yeah, I wonder what's doing this?" Rhea said from the other end.
"The question is, do investigate or keep out noses out of it? We're all pure-bloods and I get the feeling this thing's after muggle-borns." Krystella said from the bed next to Kaylee's.
"I thenk ve should look ento et but try not to worry to much." Yasmin said slowly.
"Agreed." the four said at once.
The next week went reasonably well, apart from an incident in potions when Goyle's potion exploded. Rhea and Yasmin happened to be working right in front of him and were splashed with incorrectly made swelling draught.
The back of their heads swelled so much they fell over backwards, their heads far to heavy to lift, Snape actually had to come to them and pour the drought down their throats. As their heads deflated Snape took something from the cauldron.
"If I ever find out who threw this," Snape whispered, "I shall make sure that person is expelled."
He was holding a burnt out firework. The kind Fred and George bought. Rhea turned to glare at Ron, now was the night to play their little trick.
"So we're eating at Gryffindor table tonight right?" Yasmin asked as they walked out of potions.
"Us and a few slugs." Rhea smirked.
Rhea watched with an evil grin as Ron gagged and pulled something slimy from his mouth, he gave a loud scream. Snape and Mcgonnagall were behind him in an instant.
"Mr Weasley, do you have a reason for disrupting every ones dinner or did you just feel like screaming like a three year old girl?" Snape sneered.
"Professors, those two put slugs in my food!" Ron yelled, pointing at the two girls a little down the way.
"Five points for your continuous shouting." Mcgonnagall said sternly.
"How could two girls that far away put slugs into your bowl? Miss Prewett, Miss Degre? Did you or did you not put slugs in Mr Weasley's food?"
"No sir." they answered in union.
"Why would we, Sir?" Yasmin asked, looking strait into his eyes.
"Minerva, I believe Mr Weasley is simply trying to cause problems for these two girls. I see no reason to trust his judgment if he can't produce any evidence against them and I find these girls to be very reliable and responsible."
"I'm disappointed to say I have to agree, ten points from Gryffindor, Mr Weasley I am very disappointed in you." Mcgonnagall said before following Professor Snape back to the staff table.
"I think I've been put off my food." Rhea said, pushing her plate away and getting up.
"Same 'ere." Yasmin repeated the action and followed.
As soon as both girls were out they high fived.
"That was so funny, did you see his face?" Rhea hissed quietly.
"Yes! Shocked fesh turned to blubbering baby." Yasmin laughed.
"I just did that for the reaction, but the point loss was a bonus." the red head laughed.
"Just so you know, I won't be covering for you two again." a dark voice said from behind them, both girls jumped a mile in the air, "Though that stupid prank was amusing you shouldn't pull to many." he smirked.
That surprised Rhea, the closest she'd seen him come to a smile was his sneer, even smirking made him look years younger. Wait- he was amused? That meant the dark potions professor had feeling... the world was strange.
About a week later the four were walking up to breakfast when a crowd around the notice board caught their attention.
"That idiot Lockhart's starting a dueling club." Draco informed them.
"We should go just to see how much his head inflates." Krystella laughed.
"This should be fun." Rhea smirked.
