I would like to thank everyone who reviewed... unfortunately I can't cause no one did.... oh well here's the new chapter.
Chapter 25
Sarah stared at her planner that Will had given her over the holiday. All her teachers were out to get her, she was sure. McGonagall had assigned a three foot essay on an Animagi of her choice. And of course, it had to be a registered Animgous...which took Sirius off the list. And McGonagall had said no essays on her, because that was taking the easy road. Then, Snape had assigned a five-foot essay on the potion they had made in class that day. Then their was Charms, History of Magic, Care of Magical Creatures (although, she knew Hagrid would be understanding if it wasn't done on time), Defense Against the Dark Arts, and her Gift Training.
"I am never going to finish this by tomorrow" Sarah said, staring at the list of her assignments "The night is just not long enough"
"It's about to get shorter" Draco said
Sarah jumped. She hadn't know he was behind her "What are you talking about, Draco?"
"We are on for hall patrol tonight"
Sarah sighed "The Inquistorial Squad?"
Draco nodded
Great Sarah thought Now I have a pile of homework to finish AND I have to spend the evening with Draco.
"Ok Draco, when do we start?"
"Now."
"Ok give me a second I have to put these books away."
"Fine but hurry. I can't wait to catch Potty and Weasle doing something wrong!"
"Um hello Ron is my boyfriend!"
"Still? I thought you would have dumped his arse for someone more… civilized."
"Like…"
"Well. Let me see Joshua Ridden thinks you are good looking and then there's Simon Estefan" Draco said referring to two of the sixth year Slytherins, "and of course there is the entire Slytherin Quidditch team, minus yours truly."
"You mean me. Date a Slytherin?" Sarah asked before busting out into hysterical laughter.
"What's so funny."
"Just the thought of me and one of your slimy friends is hilarious."
"Slimy?"
"Yeah ferret boy." Sarah said and turned and walked up stairs to put her books away when she got there she felt something warm in her pocket. She pulled out the coin and saw the date of the next meeting. Tonight.
"Oh… shit this isn't good." She walked down stairs to where Draco was waiting, "Draco when do we finish?"
"In a couple of hours, why do you have a date or something?"
"You could say that."
Sarah was ten minutes late for the DA meeting Stupid Steven Estabans she though as she thought of the second year Hufflepuff that had been caught breaking into Umbridge's class with a late essay. She quietly took her seat next to Ron, and saw several people starting at her.
"Sorry I'm late" Sarah said "I had something come up last minute"
"Um...Sarah" Ron said
"What?"
"I think you forgot to take something off" he muttered, pointing at her chest. Sarah looked down, and saw the badge of the Inquisitorial Squad on her chest
"Damn" Sarah said as she snatched the badge off and put it in her pocket
"Are you working for Umbridge?" a Hufflepuff girl asked
"No, I'm not" Sarah said
"Then what is with you having one of those badges?" Zachariah Smith said "Do you wear it for decoration?"
"Ok, so yes, I am part of the Inquisitorial Squad-"
This started an uproar of panic. People started talking about how much Umbridge knew...one of the reasons Sarah hadn't told many people about her new extra curricular activity
"Hold it!" Harry said "Hey, everyone calm down!"
His order went unheard. He reached for his wand, and magically magnified his voice "QUIET!"
The room fell quiet almost at once
"I trust Sarah" Harry said "She told me about joining the Inquisitorial Squad as soon as it happened, and I still let her come here. Now, let her explain herself"
"Thank you Harry" Sarah said, standing up "Alright, so yes, I am a member of the IS, however, I am not under any circumstances going to ever turn on you and report this group to Umbridge. Keep in mind, my sister, best friends, and boyfriend's names are on the list of members as well as mine. I am not about to do something that will get me in trouble as well. If anything, this can help the DA. I will know if Umbridge starts to get suspicious, and give you plenty of warning so you can throw her off."
A few people, Zachariah being the ringleader. Still questioned Sarah's loyalty. Sarah shrugged it off. They never trusted her or Anna for being in Slytherin anyway.
Ok so here's the deal. It's holy week, if you don't know what that is look it up, so we decided that we will post a chapter a day all week. Since we didn't decide that until today we'll post two today since Holy week techincally started yesterday. Easter will be the last day of this patern after which you will have to send reviews to get new chapters deal? Good.
