Muggle experience Chapter 4:
Harry, Ron and Draco walked up the path towards the school, planning what to do if they ran into Dudley's old friends again.
"We have to curse them!" Draco said
"No. we're not supposed to!" Harry replied.
"I could get my brothers to come and we could hang around outside at the end of school. That would make it look like we have a gang. They wouldn't DARE attack us after that!" Ron exclaimed
"Weasley, there is nothing remotely threatening about your entire family line! They'd probably be less scared of us if they saw your brothers."
"Yeah. So what do you suggest Malfoy! Going to write to daddy to sic you - know- who on them or something!?" Ron retorted
"that would be a terrific idea except for 2 things. One, my father isn't a deatheater, Two, we could get killed by accident!"
"Your father! Not a deatheater! I saw him and Voldemort together!" harry snapped
"Yes, well you SEE lots of things don't you Potter?"
"What's that supposed to mean?!"
"Well, having seen that article in the Daily Prophet."
"Shhhh" Ron hissed urgently, due to the face that the argument had carried them into the school, and they were about to get to their form room.
The three of them sat down angrily as the teacher walked in and called the class into silence.
After registration, the three boys walked to PE. Both Ron and Draco had been looking forward to this.
They went into the changing room, and noticed with horror that it comprised of a large room with a bench going around the wall, a little room off to the side with showers in it.
"What!" Draco spluttered
"We have to get changed, in front of each other!"
"guess so." Said Harry, as thirty other boys started taking their clothes off.
Once the three were in their PE kits, they followed the others off to the sports hall.
A large beefy man stood at the front, "The girls have the football pitch today, so I have decided to split the lesson into two different parts. For the first half of the lesson, we will do aerobics (the class groaned), then, crosscountry running. I've laid out a three mile route for toy to cover in less than 45 minutes (the class groaned again) Space yourselves out around the hall!"
"Areobics?" Ron asked, the very pale Harry, who had never been brilliant at running.
"jumping about. Supposed to be good for your heart, but judging by Aunt Petunia after her classes, I'd say that's a lie"
The three boys separated out, but were still standing in a long line.
A couple of the other students were embroiled in a furious argument with the teacher about how aerobics is for girls. The teacher, looking smug, threatened detention, sat on a chair and turned on some very loud music.
He then sat there yelling out instructions etc "and jump, 2,3,4,5,6,7,8. Don't forget to raise your arms each time, 9, 10, 11,12 etc."
Ron was putting so much effort in at first, that halfway through he fell to the floor panting, only to be given 10 pressups by the teacher. Harry and Draco had decided to follow the others in the class (doing half hearted jumps, and missing out the odd jump when the teacher wasn't looking).
When the music stopped the class collapsed onto the floor breathing heavily, all very red in the face
"What- was - the - point - in - that?" Harry gasped
"They - are - pure - evil!" Draco puffed, as if his knowledge of what evil actually was, had just been redefined.
"urghh" Puffed Ron in response.
The teacher allowed five minutes for the class to get their breach back then sent them out to run.
Harry noticed that a few very fit looking people sped off, but the rest of them went at a very slow jog out of the school grounds. Once out of sight of the school, the runners stopped.
Harry noticed them all pull bus passes out of their pockets, along with cigarettes, and they stood around chatting.
"Anyone got any money?" Harry asked. The other two shoot their heads. "We'll have to run then"
"What are they doing?" Draco asked
"I would assume, that they are taking the bus to the scheduled end of the race.
"But don't you just end up back here at the end?"
"No! we have to go around all those streets to get to the other side of the school, that's the track."
"Know any short cuts?" Ron asked
"No." Harry said bitterly
So, the three continued to run, glaring at the bus that went past, containing all the students who waved merrily at the three wizards as they went by.
When they got back to school, they were reprimanded for being so unfit, and sent directly to music, which they were late for. Fortunately, the lesson, comprised of watching a video, 'Oliver', so they could sit in the dark at the back of the class and doze.
The problem with this was that the homework was to do an essay on the songs, and why they complemented the film so well. The three hoped that as they had all been asleep at different moments, that they could piece it together later.
At lunchtime, they decided to go to the library. There they sat gown at the groupwork table, where quiet conversation was allowed and begun to flip aimlessly through books.
At one point a girl came over and asked if she could do a questionnaire of Draco for Business studies homework, so he went off with her, and a couple of the guys from their form came and sat down opposite harry and Ron at the table.
"You're reading the lord of the rings." One of them said
Harry looked at the front cover of the book. "Yes, I am", he said. Then, deciding to be friendly, "I'm Harry and this is Ron."
The boy gestured to himself "I'm Dave. And this is George"
"I have a brother called George" Ron said, abandoning his own book 'What Katy did'.
"Cool." Said George.
"what do you think of Lord of the Rings?" Dave asked Harry
"Uh. I haven't really got that far into it yet."
"You really should read it. It's got wizards, elves, dwarves, a Dark Lord, who's like really evil and wants to enslave the world. And there's loads of fighting!" Ron stared
"I like Gandalf best - he's the wizard. He's immortal and had a really cool staff, that he does magic with."
"A staff." Ron said, grinning
"Yeah."
"Why not a wand?" Ron said
"Please! He's a wizard. Not a magician."
Ron raised his eyebrows
"Why is he immortal?" Harry asked
"all the wizards in the book are. So are the elves!" Dave said
"I like Legolas best" George piped up "He's an elf - great at fighting with a bow!"
"What do elves look like?" said harry, clearly trying to stop Ron blurting out the entire workings of the wizarding world.
"They're tall, and like, really beautiful. Pointy ears. Good at fighting, although they prefer not to."
Ron fell off his chair laughing.
"What's wrong with him?" Dave asked
"probably forgot his pills or something." Harry said "I'll see you in class" he said pointedly. The two left looking curiously at Ron
"Ron!" Harry hissed
"Sorry, I just had a mental image of a really tall Dobby, slaying goblin hoards with a bow, wearing odd socks and a Weasley jumper." Ron snorted again then said "Tolkein did a brilliant job though."
"What?" Harry asked
"Every now and again the ministry gets a wizard to write a book for muggles about magic, so they think it's so, like incredible that it could never be real!"
Draco marched over to the desk looking infuriated. "What's wrong with you?!" Harry snapped at Draco.
After a few minutes he finally replied, as though he was so angry he couldn't hold it in a second longer
"I was assaulted! That muggle girl had no intention of doing homework! She led me to a deserted corridor and -" He gulped "The bitch stuck her tongue down my throat!"
"What did you do?" Ron asked trying to keep a straight face
"I left."
"You ran away" Harry said. And with that both Harry and Ron collapsed into fits of hysterical laughter. Draco got up and stormed out, muttering about revenge.
A/N: yay! Another chapter. Have to leave it there I'm afraid. Please review!
