A/N: A-Squad Theatre Presents: WRITE ANOTHER CHAPTER!
"But I don't want to write a chapter!" whines Lifes Black Sheep.
Charlotte glares at her, "You'll do what I tell you to do! Now write!"
"But-"
"NO BUTS!!"
Bec
giggles, "You said-"
"Shut up Bec!" snaps LBS and
Charlotte in unison. Charlotte turns back to LBS. "Now Listen here.
Write the chapter or I hit you over the head with my laptop!" LBS
turns to Cassidy.
"Curly fries! Charlotte is threatening me!" Cassidy promptly hits LBS in the arm.
"Don't call me Curly Fries. And just write the damn chapter so Charlotte stops complaining. I'm trying to read!"
"But I don't want to!"
The entire MLC library plus characters of ADKOG scream, "JUST WRITE THE BLOODY CHAPTER!"
"Fine," grumbles LBS and turns to the computer and starts to type…
-ooo000ooo-
Pencil poised Scorp stared at the lake, waiting. He had to see the exact moment and lock away the memory inside his brain. It was some rare, something talked about under hushed breaths. The Legendary Awakening of the Squid. Every morning, just as the sun first hit the lake the Giant Squid would break the water rearing it's tentacles in the air in a violent good morning salute. The sun broke through the horizon and the water began to bubble. He leant in intently waiting to see the tip of the first tentacles.
He never saw it, for at that moment a scream issued from behind him. Rose's scream. He whipped around coming face to face with the most hideous thing he had ever seen. A mountain troll.
The troll grinned and grabbed Scorp by the arms, hoisting him up. He swung him around to meet the cool eyes of the elf that had been on his mind for the whole year. The reason for Rose and Al's anguish.
The elf smiled at him, "Mr Malfoy isn't it? I was wondering if you could do me a little favour."
Scorp glared at him, "It's Nom. Scorp Nom and why the hell would I do a favour for you?"
The Elf shrugged, "I don't know. Because you and I are such good friends? Because you are sympathetic to our goal? Because if you don't poor Miss Weasley here will have her bones broken one by one until you agree? Take your pick!"
It was only then Scorp noticed the man cloaked in black holding Rose by the arms, with one hand covering her mouth. Her eyes were wild with, not fear, but anger.
"If you so much as touch her Elf," he spat, "I will kill you!"
The Elf laughed, "Oh I won't touch her but Marcel here might. Marcel is particularly partial to… young blood."
Marcel smiled, flashing two pearly white fangs.
Scorp slumped in defeat, there was nothing he could do. Rose might have been able to transform but he didn't like the odds of a horse against a dragon and thankfully Rose had been smart enough not to like them as well.
The elf smiled, "Good, good. I see you have realised that you have no choice. Now hand your wand over to me please. I don't want you to use your naughty wizard powers on me."
Scorp sighed and dug into his pocket, taking out his wand. He threw it over to the elf. But not before giving it a quick, unseen wave and murmuring a spell under his breath. He almost smiled, knowing that at that moment his quill had picked it's self up and was quickly writing Al a note, asking for help.
The elf smiled, "Oh I do love it when everyone cooperates! Now let's all take a nice brisk walk to the Chamber of Secrets to retrieve my wand!"
A/N: yep I'm leaving it there with a cliffy. Tough luck people because it is now 9:20 and I have a society and environment essay tomorrow and I want my sleep. Although it was short I hope you enjoyed this chapter, hopefully next one will be longer and I can finally get Scorp to learn the elf's name (Gildor) because I am tired of type The Elf all the time.
Huh? What's that Mr Review Button? You're sad? And lonely? And you think that no one loves you? Oh my that's horrible! I bet you'd feel better if some kind readers would click you.
Don't do it for me, do it for the sad, lonely button.
