Lesson mishap

Fred's P.O.V

I watched as she left the room and sat down with the others. There were two new arrivals, though they wouldn't be part of our group, I knew that, so did Lee and George. They were called Kenan Bernard, he was from France, his parents had chosen him to go to Hogwarts rather than Beauxbatons, having known Dumbledore and everything he had done, and Lloyd Ross, he was British and known he was going to Hogwarts from the day he was born. Like us! We listened to Kenan talk about France for a bit, before deciding to go to bed.

Nothing special happened until the second week. Basically, first week was the teachers telling us what we'd learn, what we'd need, etcetera... But second week! We got to work! Do actual spells! And potions. And touch plants. Our first proper lesson was Transifiguration. You know what we learnt? THAT BROWNIE IS AMAZING AT IT! She did the spell correctly on her second try! McGonagall gave her a second spell to do, and she got that as well! I was gaping from my place by her and Brownie laughed. 'Close your mouth, Mr Weasley, you'll cath flies! Now, Bronnie-' This sentence was cut off by a gasp. Me included. McGonagall sighed and gave her some more spells to try. When she walked away, Brownie looked at me.

'Why'd everyone gasp?' she asked curiously. I shook my head. She honestly didn't know?

'She called you Bronnie. Bronnie. She calls everyone else Mr or Miss something. She didn't even call you Bronwen, she called you Bronnie!' I explained. She shrugged and turned back to her work, though I saw her smile. 'You know, if you're amazing at Transfiguration-'

'-I'm not!'

'-You're helping us with our homework.' I informed her, ignoring her outburst. She sighed and chuckled.

'I sort of gathered I'd be helping you with all you guys homework...' she beamed as she waved her wand. She kept repeating words that sounded strange to me, and her quill turned into a paper aeroplane. 'Yes!' she cheered, throwing the plane around. She walked and picked it up.

'What were you saying?' I asked, awe-struck. I had to learn that spell! She tapped her nose, as if saying 'Not telling!' I moaned and continued to try and turn my match into a needle.

Then. Potions. Best. Lesson. Ever! Lee and George have scars from it, probably literally! I still laugh whenever I think about it! I walked in and sat at my place by George and watched Brownie sit by Lee. She got up and ran over to me, opening her mouth, but before she could say anything, Snape walked in. '5 points from Gryffindor, for not being in your seat, Miss Kelly, I don't care if you're the new protegée in Transfiguration, you will obide from the rules.' he snarled. She flushed and ran back, looking at me worriedly. I glared at Snape and he started the lesson. We all got our ingredients and put them down. Whilst Snape's back was turned, I saw Brownie pull out her wand and turn her quill into a paper plane and she wrote in it with another quill. She chucked it at me. If there's anything wrong with Brownie, it's her aim. Terrible. The plane hit George in the eye and I quickly grabbed it, hearing him swear at Brownie who held her hands up in defeat.

When I nod, step back. And please send this back, just in case I need to write again!

Brownie

I nodded my head at her to show I understood, and chucked it back and she smiled. I put my ingredients in, along with George. When we were about to turn on out fires, I saw Brownie nod at me in the corner of my eye. I stepped back and George turned on his cauldron. BOOM! His and Lee's cauldron blew up in their faces. I laughed and looked at Brownie who grinned. I stepped forward next to George and grinned as I heard Snape yell at him and Lee. Brownie winked at me, sending me another plane.

Told ya I'd get them back!

Brownie

I chuckled. 'She gotcha back!' I whispered in George's ear and his eyes widened in realisation, almost the same time as Lee's as he looked back, his eyes wide too. I laughed hard.

That was an amazing prank, Brownie, I'm teaching you well!

Fred

And I chucked it back. She beamed and nodded and we continued the lesson. And like that went the next 3 months. Until the great depression Part II started.
