Chapter 14: Show Off

October 21,1911 Hogwarts…

Dear Percival;

I honestly can't believe what a ham my friend is!! Everything she does she does for attention! Then again if you're the seventh of seven I guess you got to do anything to stand out. Why just yesterday she…



"Now I know this is a very hard transfiguration for third year and I doubt any of you can get it right…but for fifty points who wants to at least try to get an instrument from this handkerchief?" the professor asked holding the item in his hand.

No one raised their hands but a few Slytherins. Katherine was of course one of them.

Kendra watched the students go up and attempt the transfiguration. Professor Vordin shot them down one by one.

"All right Miss Harris your comrades have proven themselves not even able to hole the wand correctly. Care to show us what another Slytherin can do?" the professor sighed.

"It would be my pleasure," Katherine nodded.

With a fashionable twirl of her wand and a flick of her hand Katherine had the handkerchief into a baby grand piano.

The class clapped for her and as the teacher examined the instrument Katherine sat at it and began to play a soft tune and vocalizing softly.

The class was mesmerized and listened as if bewitched.


It was so crazy. She had us all till the bell ring and it was like waking from a trance. Then she went around all day acting like the Queen of Sheba. Well I suppose it could be worse write?

Yours,

Kendra.



Dearest Benji;

I do so miss you during our third year. But I suppose we all must grow up and move on. Quidditch games are happening and I am still one of the fastest seekers. We don't always win of course but that's not my fault.

Now our Quidditch Captain is my brother. It's good for me because I don't get smited for not catching the snitch; which I hardly ever do. It's bad for Daniel though because he is always nagged about favoring me.

I tell you even amongst purebloods there is no winning! Well now that I've vented I'll leave you to your training.

Love,

Kate
