A.N. Hi I am back! I am sorry for the delay! This is a long chapter though! Longest I've ever written. Enjoy!
Scene: Outside, flying practice. The students, Gryffindor and Slytherin, are lined up in two rows with brooms by their sides. The teacher, MADAM HOOCH, comes down the line. She has short hair and hawk yellow eyes.
'What! Flying practise already?' Harry asked.
'My good flying. You people should be lucky to see me fly.' Draco boasted and sneered.
'Yes Draco! Do you remember 1998? When Harry saved you by flying from the Room of Requirement?' Hermione asked in a dangerously sweet voice.
Draco's sneer turned into a red face.
'Shut up Granger.' He muttered angrily.
Hermione smiled at him.
Hooch: Good afternoon, class.
'What the… Madam Hooch, how are you so polite? You told us to hurry up and started your lesson. Was she so kind with you all?' James jr., Lily jr. and James sr. asked bewildered.
The younger Potters looked at their grandfather and smiled at him.
But then the three of them looked at their parents and Madam Hooch with a demanding look.
'What! Madam Hooch was never polite. Never. She told us to hurry up! And certainly not a greeting.'
The younger and older Potters nodded.
'So, any of you play Quidditch?' James sr. asked.
The whole family of 5 nodded. James sr. and Sirius looked as if Christmas had came early. Remus and Lily sr. rolled their eyes.
'What position?' James sr. and Sirius asked jumping like children.
'Honestly James, Padfoot!' Lily sr. rolled her eyes in disapproval.
'I played Seeker dad! You know that already.' Harry said with a smile.
James sr. and Sirius ignored the last part and looked at Ginny with a demanding face.
Ginny shook her head.
'I played both Seeker and Chaser, Sirius, Mr. Potter.' Ginny said.
'My wife played for Holyhead Harpies.' Harry boasted.
James sr. and Sirius look at her with a new found respect!
Ginny blushed.
'I play Seeker! Am a Captain.' James jr. said.
'I play Seeker, too. I am the Captain as well.' Albus jr. said.
'I play Chaser. But all of them know I am a better Seeker.' Lily jr. said.
'Wow Padfoot! 2 generations of Quidditch!' James sr. said dramatically.
'Yes Prongs! I am so…'
Lily sr. and Remus smack them both behind their heads.
'Ow woman! You are supposed to be in my team Moony.' Sirius and James sr. pouted.
Harry looked at them with amusement and resumed the movie.
Class: Good afternoon, Madam Hooch.
Hooch: Good afternoon, Amanda, good afternoon.
'What the holy…' Every looked at the screen with bewilderment and shock.
Hooch: {to class} Welcome to your first flying lesson.
'What! You never welcomed us. Where the hell is Madam Hooch?' Ron asked.
Madam Hooch glared and shrugged her shoulders.
Hooch: Well, what are you waiting for? Everyone step up to the left side of their broomstick. Come on now, hurry up. Stick your right hand over the broom and say, Up!
'Hooch is back!' All the Quidditch fans said.
Everyone laughed.
Class: Up!
Harry's broom flies into his hand.
Harry: Whoa. {Hermione stares as the class continues.}
'I still think this 'up' saying is stupid! We could have bent down and picked the broomstick up! This whole thing was stupid and a waste of time.' Hermione said.
'Agreed.' Uncle Vernon said. He obviously thought the movie was stupid. It had magic after all.
Draco: Up! {broomstick flies up and Draco smugly grins.}
The Gryffindors groaned.
Hooch: With feeling!
"That woman is so not me.' Hooch pointed out.
Hermione: Up. Up. Up. Up.
Ron: Up! {His broom flies up and conks him on the nose} Ow! {Harry laughs} Shut up, Harry. {laughs}
Everyone laughed out loud.
'See Weasley. You are no good at anything.' Draco sneered.
'Shut up.' Ron said turning red.
Hooch: Now, once you've got hold of your broom, I want you to mount it. And grip it tight, you don't want to be sliding off the end. {Class mounts}
'holding wrong, hey, Malfoy? You can't do anything right, eh?" Ron said to Draco with a sneer. Draco groaned.
Hooch: When I blow my whistle, I want each of you to kick off from the ground, hard. Keep your broom steady, hover for a moment, and then lean forward slightly and touch back down. On my whistle...3...2...{tweet!}
"Oh, I guess I'm not going to fly off then?" Neville said.
Neville immediately lifts off. He looks quite frightened.
"Okay, I do. But I did it after she blew the whistle.' Neville said confused.
Hooch: Mr. Longbottom.
"That is wrong.' Neville mentioned. "You just shouted, 'Come back, boy'!"
Madam Hooch shrugged.
Girl: Neville, what are you doing?
'I am flying. And I went up after she blew the whistle. Movie can't get anything right.' Neville remarked with disapproval.
Students: Neville...Neville...
Boy: We're not supposed to take off, yet.
"Damn the movies. The whistle blew.' Neville yelled
Hooch: {Neville begins soaring away} M-M-Mr. Longbottom Mr. Longbottom!
Neville: AHH!
'What! Why is this woman so scared? This happens almost every year.' Madam Hooch said with dismay.
The wizards and witches look at Madam Hooch with new found respect.
Hooch: Mr. Longbottom!
Neville: {soars away} Down! Down! Ahhhh!
"Now this is true entertainment," Draco sneered.
'STFU Malfoy.' Ginny snapped.
Harry: Neville! {shouting}
Neville: Help!
Hooch: Come back down this instant!
"Can't you see he can't?" Hermione cried.
"I didn't say that, though." Madam Hooch argued.
Neville: AHH!
He soars through the sky and hits a wall, conking along it and then swooping off.
"Hm, I don't remember hitting a wall," Neville said thinking.
Others nod their heads
All the while, he is screaming. He begins to zoom back towards the group of students. Hooch holds out her wand to stop him.
"This movie is so much more dramatic than real life," Harry said.
Others nod at his statement.
Neville: Help!
Hooch: Mr. Longbottom! {Neville approaches. The students scatter and Hooch dives out of the way. Neville goes through the scatter and up a tower.}
Neville: Ahhhh! Whoa! Ahhh! {zooms past a statue of a man with a sharp spear. Neville's cloak catches on it. He is flipped off the broom and hangs there.} Oh. Ah...help! {He wavers, then the cloak rips, and he falls, catching on a torch, but then slipping out and falling to the ground.} Ahh!
"Now that is what I call dramatic," Neville said, stunned. "They can't… wow! No words.'
'Holy Morgana! This didn't happen right? This is crazy.' Lily jr. asked stunned and shocked.
'No, it didn't.' Harry laughed
Hooch: Everyone out of the way! {She runs through the group, and they scatter.} Come on, get up.
"I did not say that," Hooch said grumpily. 'How can this woman not see what had happened?'
Girl: Is he alright?
"Oh, yes," Neville said sarcastically. "I just fell from a very high height. All is doing great. Look I am jumping up and down.'
Others laugh.
Neville: Owowowow.
Hooch: Oh, oh, oh, oh dear. It's a broken wrist. Tch, tch, tch. Good boy, come on now, up you get.
"What! So many extra lines. They cut important scenes and give excessive lines.' Hermione muttered disapproving of their antics.
{Draco reaches down and grabs Neville's Remembrall, which has fallen. Hooch begins to lead Neville away with her.}
Hooch: Everyone's to keep their feet firmly on the ground while I take Mr. Longbottom to the hospital wing. Understand? If I see a single broom in the air, the one riding it will find themselves out of Hogwarts before they can say Quidditch. {Exit.}
"Well, I didn't get expelled. I studied there for 6 straight years." Harry said.
"Neither did I," Draco added.
Madam Hooch shrugged.
Draco: {snickers} Did you see his face? Maybe if the fat lump had given this a squeeze, he'd have remembered to fall on his fat ass. {Laughs.}
"Remember when Parvati had stood up for the excuse of a wizard?" Pansy shrieked in laughter.
Draco started laughing
'Shut the heck up," Parvati sneered.
'Right Malfoy! Who is your son's favourite teacher? Who slayed Nagini?' Ron asked.
Malfoy turned red.
'Thanks mate.' Neville said grateful.
'No problem.' Ron smiled.
Harry: Give it here, Malfoy.
Draco: No. I think I'll leave it somewhere for Longbottom to find. {hops on broom and soars around group, then through.} How 'bout up on the roof? {soars off and hovers high in the sky.} What's the matter, Potter? Bit beyond your reach?
'I never said these lines.' Draco cried. 'Wait till my father…'
'No one cares about what your daddy says here.' Ginny snapped.
The room howled with laughter.
Draco turned red.
Harry grabs his broom and runs to get on it. Hermione stops him.
Hermione: Harry, no! You heard what Madam Hooch said! Besides, you don't even know how to fly. {Harry flies off.} What an idiot.
'Wow! This Hermione curses.' Ron said amazed.
"I actually didn't say that last line," Hermione argued.
'Oh really! Merlin's most baggy pants' Ron mimicked.
'Shut up!' Hermione muttered.
Everyone laughed.
Harry is now in the air, across from Draco.
Harry: Give it here, Malfoy, or I'll knock you off your broom!
"Yes, Harry!" Hermione was now cheering. "You're lucky we didn't all get in trouble. Or I would've killed you.'
'Oh, Mouldy shorts would have been so happy. He has been trying to kill me for so long.' Harry joked.
'You dare! HE DARES JOKE ABOUT THE GREATEST WIZARD OF ALL TIMES! CRU-' Bellatrix shouted angrily.
'Bella!' Voldemort stopped her.
'My lord.'
'Holy Merlin. Continue the movies, please.' James sr. said.
Harry did so.
Draco: Is that so? {Harry makes a dash for him, but Draco twirls around his broom in a 360.} Have it your way, then! {He throws the Remembrall into the air.}
"Ahh, so that's why you got him to be a seeker, Professor," Oliver Wood said. 'I might say this must be impressive.'
'Hi Oliver.' The Quidditch team hugged him.
'Good to be back.' Oliver said fondly.
Harry zooms after the ball, speeding towards a tower. Just as he is about to hit a window, from which McGonagall is working/watching, he catches it, and then heads back to the group. The students all cheer and run to see him.
'Wow! You are a Quidditch prodigy.' James sr. said amazed.
Others nod.
'Wait a second! Draco you told me he provoked you and you had to fly! But McGonagall still mad him Seeker!' Snape said suspisciously.
'Umm.' Draco said turning red.
'You lied! Really Draco?' Snape said with a hardened gaze and a glare.
Draco looked down embarrassed and ashamed.
'Let's continue.' He muttered.
Boy: Good job, Harry!
Boy 2: Oh, that was wicked, Harry.
McGonagall: {appears quickly} Harry Potter? Follow me. {Harry sullenly follows her. Draco and his goons laugh.}
"Wow, you are so calm. What about-" Harry pointed out, then he imitated her yell, "HARRY POTTER!"
'Mr. Potter. You just did that. Who would have been calm?' McGonagall argued.
Others agreed.
Scene: Professor Quirrell's classroom. He is inside, teaching, holding an iguana.
"Wow! You didn't yell at me at all.' Harry said. 'This movie is so wrong and we went to Flitwick's."
Quirrell: An iguana s-such as this is {McGonagall approaches the class and stops Harry}
McGonagall: You wait here.
Quirrell: An essential in-gredient
"Idiot, stupid, pathetic.' Harry muttered angrily
McGonagall: Excuse me, excuse me, Professor Quirrell. Could I borrow Wood for a moment?
"Wow, that sounds scary," Albus said. "It sounds like it would be some cane that's made of Wood. It honestly sounds like you were going to be caned, Dad!
'I thought that too.' Harry agreed with Wood. It was indeed intimidating when McGonagall said that!
Quirrell: Oh. Y-yes, of course. {a boy, OLIVER WOOD, gets up to leave and Quirrell continues.} And the vampire b-bat...{eerie roar.}
McGonagall: Potter, this is Oliver Wood. Wood, I have found you a Seeker!
Everyone laughed.
"She is so calm," Harry said.
Scene: Harry and Ron are walking through crowded halls. Sir Nicholas and a lady ghost float by.
Nick: Have you heard? Harry Potter's the new Gryffindor Seeker. I always knew he'd do well.
"Oh, this didn't actually happen," Harry said.
Ron: Seeker? But first years never make their house teams! You must be the youngest Quidditch player in
Harry: A century, according to McGonagall.
"Actually, Oliver told me. This is stupid." Harry said, annoyed.
Fred and George approach and walk along with Ron and Harry.
Fred: Hey, well done, Harry, Wood's just told us!
Ron: Fred and George are on the team, too. Beaters.
"What! We said that! During breakfast! " George added.
George: Our job is to make sure that you don't get bloodied up too bad. Can't make any promises, of course. Rough game, Quidditch.
"We never said that," Fred and George said angrily
Fred: Brutal. But no one's died in years. Someone will vanish occasionally... {They break off from Harry and Ron, who walk across a courtyard.}
"No one said that," George added.
George: But they'll turn up in a month or two!
'Wow!' A few people were laughing
Ron: Oh, go on, Harry, Quidditch is great. Best game there is! And you'll be great, too! {Hermione jumps up from her work and comes to join them.}
"Why are we walking?" Harry noticed. "When we had this conversation, it was dinner time."
Ron nodded.
'Nothing is correct.' Harry muttered
Harry: But I've never even played Quidditch. What if I make a fool of myself?
Hermione: You won't make a fool of yourself. It's in your blood.
"No Malfoy coming to challenge me to the midnight duel?" Harry asked.
"You had a duel? In your first year? Lily sr. asked and started scolding Harry.
'THAT'S MY SON/GODSON.' James sr. and Sirius yelled in the top of their voices.
Harry smiled at their antics.
Scene: The three approach a trophy case. Hermione points at a plaque of Quidditch players. One lists Harry's father as a Seeker.
"Wow! I was not a Seeker! I was a Chaser.' James sr. pointed out.
'Really?' Harry asked.
'Yeah!'
'Wait a second. Is that Professor McGonagall?' Hermione asked.
Harry looked carefully and nodded.
'What! 1971? I did play Quidditch but earlier than that! 1930's' McGonagall pointed out!
Ron: Whoa. Harry, you never told me your father was a Seeker, too.
Harry: I-I didn't know.
Scene: The three are walking up a staircase. A railing pulls in. Hermione looks, but continues walking.
Ron: I'm telling you, it's spooky. She knows more about you than you do.
Harry: Who doesn't?
'Yeah!' Harry nodded.
Others laughed.
The staircase shudders and begins to move. The three grab the railings.
Ron: Ahh!
Hermione: {Gasps.}
Harry: What's happening?
"Oh, I wonder," Harry snarled to his screen self. 'Didn't you listen to Percy?'
Hermione: The staircases change, remember? {The staircase stops, in a new place.}
'Yeah!' Ron said.
Harry: {taps Ron} Let's go this way.
Ron: Before the staircase moves again. {They all open a door and walk into a spooky, dark room.}
"I honestly don't remember this," Harry sighed.
Harry: Does anyone feel like...we shouldn't be here?
Hermione: We're not supposed to be here. This is the 3rd floor. It's forbidden.
"Oh… wait…" Hermione said. "Why are we were at the third floor, now?"
"We were there at midnight," Neville answered.
Suddenly, a flame lights on a tall stone support. At that moment, the caretaker's cat, MRS. NORRIS, comes running in and meows. The group jumps.
Harry: Let's go.
{meow}
Ron: It's Filch's cat!
Harry: Run!
"So, what truly happened was Malfoy tricked us to a midnight duel," Harry said, "and then Hermione started following us nagging about detentions and Neville followed us because he didn't wanna be alone, and then Filch came and we ran to the third floor. That happened right?'
Ron, Hermione and Neville nod.
The group runs. Flames are lit as they go. They get to the end of the corridor, to a door. Harry grabs the handle, but it's locked.
"OK, this must be the door to Fluffy, then," Hermione said.
Harry: It's locked!
Ron: That's it, we're done for!
Hermione: Oh, move over! {pushes through and pulls out wand} Alohomora. {The door opens.} Get in. {They bustle in.}
Ron: Alohomora?
Hermione: Standard book of spells, Chapter 7.
"What the hell! This girl is so…," Hermione muttered.
'Nothing is correct!' Harry muttered
Filch appears at the start of the corridor with a light. Mrs. Norris looks at him.
Filch: Anyone here, my sweet? {meow} Come on. {exit.}
"What the hell?' Ron asked.
Hermione: Filch is gone.
Ron: Probably thinks this door's locked.
Hermione: It was locked.
Harry: And for good reason. {Ron and Hermione turn to stand with Harry. There is a massively huge three headed dog sleeping in front of them. The dog, FLUFFY, begins to wake. It growls, yawns, and growls more...noticing the intruders.}
"I WAS THERE! THEY ARE SO WRONG!" Neville cried.
All: AHHHHHHH! {The three bolt, running out of the door. They turn quickly to shut the door and battle against the dog. They get the door shut and run.}
Scene:
Back in the Gryffindor room. They are breathless.
"Well, that was certainly scary," Lily jr. mumbled. 'Thank god there is no such stuff now! Otherwise.' She glared at James jr. So did Albus jr. and Scorpius. James jr. grinned.
Ron: What do they think they're doing? Keeping a thing like that locked up in a school.
"I know right! It's mad! " Ron said.
Hermione: You don't use your eyes, do you? Didn't you see what it was standing on?
Ron: I wasn't looking at its feet! I was a bit preoccupied with its heads. Or maybe you didn't notice, there were three! {they begin to climb the stairs to the dorms.}
'That was my line!" Harry cried out!
Hermione: It was standing on a trap door. Which means it wasn't there by accident. It's guarding something.
Harry: Guarding something?
"Yes! And I don't remember stuttering or not speaking clearly!" Hermione snapped.
Hermione: That's right. Now, if you two don't mind, I'm going to bed before either of you come up with another clever idea to get us killed...or worse, expelled! {turns and leaves, shutting the door to her dorms.}
'Wow! That's similar!' Ron said.
Others were laughing
Ron: She needs to sort out her priorities!
Harry nods.
'That's an extra line though!' Ron pointed out!
'Yeah!'
A.N. Hi. I am back! I am so sorry, I didn't update! I had really bad depression. (I had a traumatic childhood. Not with my family). I mostly didn't have any wish to write. I was demotivated! I promise to update faster! So sorry for making you wait. But I am not story for taking a break. So yeah. Reviews:
Fanf1cgurl: Glad to see you back. Thank you for your generous comment! I am glad you liked it! And it's fine you didn't review!
Isabel380: I guess that would be fine! But I really think the wizarding world has some link to the death! The veil, Resurrection Stone. My explanation is Death, Fate, Time and Destiny somehow made a room that doesn't count time and brings back the death to the living! Harry being a special individual he is, is invited there with his family! That's my explanation!
Ummm: Hi. Nice to see you again! So, I did that, yeah! Because one tends to forget some stuff when one is sick! And not only that, I didn't feel like writing as well! Peyton Johnson, hmm? Are you Peyton Johnson from the Johnson fam? I love your family channel a lot if you are Peyton Johnson! But you don't sound seven! I have no idea who you are! Sorry!
Sweetlove25: Wow! You read the chapter in perfect time! 4 minutes ago! I would add an intermission after every movie! Otherwise, it would really be a lost of wastage of time! Yeah! And I am glad you are liking the story so far!
Okay people, I'll see you in 3 or 4 days! Promise! BYEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!
