A/N: Since the first part of Chapter 10 was so alrge, I had to put it up as two chapters. Here's the next part.
*****************************************************************************
Chapter 10 B
I woke up early, Ron behind me. I felt a very reassuring thing near my back. I heard Ron moaning, and then, he woke up.
"Dream something, Ronnikins?" I asked, smiling.
"I was, er... Dreaming about you..."
"I see." I said, pointing at something hitting my back.
He blushed, and pulled himself away.
"Well, we better get to breakfast, eh?"
"Yup. Don't forget about KinkLink."
As if on cue, the handcuffs flew across the room and I caught them.
"The plan starts after breakfast!"
We both walked own the stairs, with Harry behind us. Grandpa had moved about 2 feet over in the night. I woke him up, before Ron, Harry and I ran to take a shower. When we came back, we saw Missy coming down the stairs with Fred and George in tow. Ron and I walked over to Grandpa, and waited. Hermione and almost everyone else came down. All of a sudden, Missy let a humongous squeal, and rushed between Ron and I, and Grandpa laughed, and picked her up and swung her around.
"Grandpa Damy! When did you get here?"
"Last night... Damy won a game of chess!"
Her eyes bugged out.
"No wonder! Your house probably froz over, huh?"
"Yup."
"Well... A demon roaming the school grounds wouldn't be very good. Dumbledore might mistake you for a monster and chase you out, or give you to... Hagrid..."
"I realized. Where is Dumbledore's office? I need to speak with him."
"Erm... It's behind a stone gargoyle in a hall around this tower. The password is 'M and M's.' "
"Thanks."
And, with that, he disappeared in a rush of flame, leaving behind nothing except a bewildered Hermione.
"You... You just can't... Apparate, or disapparate on Hogwarts grounds!!!"
"His flames act like Floo Powder."
"Oh."
We all were dressed, and went down to the Great Hall. We had set down to eat, and we were interrupted by Dumbledore striding quickly to the front table.
"It has come to my attention that we currently have no Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher. I was approached this morning for a certain arrangement, and I felt that, under the circumstances, an offer that I had been given was stupid not to take. So, without further ado, I present to you Hogwart's newest Defense Against the Dark Arts class Professor, Professor Damien Scorpius Riddle."
Grandpa flamed into the empty seat next to Dumbledore, and smiled and bowed at everyone. Everyone had stopped whatever they had been doing to watch him. After about 10 minutes, everyone had finished staring, and started eating again. When we were finished, Ron and I cornered Missy and the twins.
"That was a great trick with the handcuffs last night!" Ron and I said at once.
"Don't forget the Party Horn, the Handkerchief, and the Toothbrush."
"Toothbrush?" Ron asked. He looked at me, and I told him to smile.
"Yes, indeed. Toothbrush."
His teeth had turned purple. I held out the handcuffs to supposedly give them to Missy, George, and Fred.
"Here you go. KinkLink, reveal your true form for your true masters!" Ron said.
The handcuffs went up in a ball of light, and there was now 3 cuffs. They stared at us funny. I looked at Ron.
"Now?"
"Now."
"KINKLINK! SHOW YOUR POWER FOR YOUR TRUE MASTERS!"
The handcuffs popped open, and snapped on each of their wrists.
"That's for everything from last night!" I said, laughing.
"This isn't very funny at all!" Missy said, struggling.
"Yeah! What would happen if one of us took a fall?" Fred, I think, said.
"I bet you're all having a ball!" George, I think, said.
Ron and I started laughing even more ferociously. Then, we started mocking them.
"Oh My God, well this is no fun!" I said.
"Even though it's repentence for what all I've done!" Ron squealed.
"Quit with the mocking!" Fred, I suppose, said.
"Your faces need socking!" George said, looking angry.
"You guys, I'm slipping, quit the rocking!" Missy said.
The last line of sentences made us laugh even more, until tears cam from our eyes. they finally figured out what was so funny.
"We keep on rhyming!" Missy said.
"At least we have good timing." Fred said.
"And, now we now why they were miming."
"You're stuck like that until Herbology is over!" I started.
"Maybe if you're lucky, you'll find a 4 leaf clover!" Ron said, giggling.
We all walked to Herbology, and when we got there, Professor Sprout's eyes were livid. Hagrid was right beside her, and even he looked sick and weak.
"What happened?"
"Erm... the new specimen of plant we got was being uncooperative."
We all stood in horror as Sprout and Hagrid went over the details of the new plant.
"He... Or she... Not sure... Well... It's a Venusian Singing Bloodtrap."
"And, 'e can't reproduce until someone sings 'im the right song... Otherwise, all 'is sprouts won't never show up..."
My eyes went wide. Missy looked at me.
"He sounds like Audrey 2!" she said, excited. Hermione ran over.
"You guys... You'll probably recognize this... Plant thing. I've read about it, and it looks exactly like Audrey 2 from Little Shop of Horrors!"
"I know. That's what we were discussing. What do you think, Hermione? Know some of the words?"
"Yes! That's about my favorite musical in the world!"
"Good. We'll need all the singers we can get."
She went through the crowd, and caught Dean, and hauled him up to us.
"He told me he heard about it, too. Do we have enough people?"
"Yes, I think."
"Yup. We're only gonna sing the sprout song, right?"
"Yes. That should work. hold on, okay?" I raised my wand, and said, 'ACCIO KEYBOARD!"
The keyboard flew through the air, and smacked into me, knocking me into the mud. I got up, and I was completely covered in mud from head to toe. I shrugged as much off as I could. I walked in there alone. Sprout was screaming, 'No, he'll eat you!' Hagrid was holding her back. But, I didn't worry about that. I knew how to handle plants, although I wished I had Neville with me.
It was dark, and eerily silent in the greenhouse. It was still cloudy out. I walked into a thing of vines, and got knocked backwards again. The big bulb shaped thing lowered its head and looked at me, then spoke. It was a lot scarier in person than in a movie. It was green, with purple veins, and a purple tongue. Lines of teeth decked the plant's mouth, and, when he spoke, he showed all of them. He had a high, whiny, and deep voice, all at the same time. it was very disturbing. It was about 3 times my size.
"Watch where you're walking, baby... Next time, I might be hungry! Who are you, anyway?"
"Why, good sir, Do you see,
this mud on me?
I am a trans-plant.
Get it? A transfered plant!
I was rudely ripped up from the soil,
Because I have to toil,
Cause I have a job here with you!
And, if I don't make it through,
I'm shredded lettuce!
You get me, Yes?"
The plant eyed me skeptically, before using a tentacle to trace lines all over my body, in a VERY seductive way. Ron would have killed the plant had he saw what it was doing.
"EmmEmmEmm, you sure look delicious, baby... I'd love to eat you up... Are you gonna sing me a song? It better be good, or else it's the curtains for you!"
And, then, he licked his erm... lips. The tentacle went lower, and lower, and then, it... erm... Grabbed there. You know, there.
"Just keeping you on your toes, baby!"
The plant was a sick freak.
"Listen, I'll burn you if you even try to eat me. I ain't gonna stop you from doing anything but eating me, okay? Good."
"Once upon a time ago,
When the land was still in bloom,
There lived a certain species of plant,
That for humans, spelt doom.
the plant just had no self-control,
And, it got on a roll.
Almost all the humans eaten by it,
Ruined all the plant's diet.
Can you say Indegestion?
Can you say gas?
Can you say sickness, baby?
When the human's reached your sick ass...
They realized what made you sick,
And then, with a small prick,
You were shrivelled, and you were dust.
Killing you all was a must.
But now, we realized why you're here.
And the answer is SO clear.
You are just a bag of blood,
And good for transfusion.
So, we cut you open, and,
Your life gets less confusin'!"
The plant growled at me. His tentacle went crazy.
"So, you big piece of shit, you're a big transfusion bag. That's why you're here!"
He growled, then looked up at the ceiling and howled. He grabbed my keyboard with a tentacle, and set it up. He was starting a song.
"So you think that you're smart boy?
So you think you're not just MY toy?
Well, bucko, listen to me!
My ass can be scary!"
He pulled himself up to his full height, and I recoiled a little bit.
"The time has come,
And I'm gonna feed my face!
Guess what, You piece of scum?
You've just destroyed your entire race!"
His tentacles closed in around me, and I burned with anger as he pulled me towards his mouth, and started laughing maniacally.
"Now I think it's supper tiiiime!"
I went into his mouth, struggling, and then, I burst. My hair went on fire, just like the rest of my body. His tentacles withdrew, and he spit me out. Sprout and Hagrid were yelling just to kill it. I decided that would be the best. His pot had started cracking. hermioone, Missy, and Dean ran in, and the keyboard kept on playing.
"Go back! He's gonna die, and if the greenhouse collapses, you'll die too!"
Missy stared at me, before rushing out with Hermione and Dean. I was scared, and then, he started singing again.
"You don't know what you're messing with,
And boy, you nevah did!
You don't know what happened here,
But that's tough titty kid!
I'm just ablood eating plant,
That's feared across the galaxy!
I came from a planet far away,
And I've been an extraterrestrial terror, you see!
Voldemort had recruited me,
Whenever i came to this side of the planet!
He supplied me,
With tons of blood!
And now, I am here just to say,
Although I'm full I'm gonna eat your ass, anyway!"
He laughed again, and I paniced. Everyone was staring through the greenhouse walls. I turned to run from the greenhouse, and he curled his tentacle around the door, and held it shut. I turned back to face him, and I noticed that the pot was cracking really bad. He sang another verse.
"I'm just a mean green mother from outer space, And I'm bad!
I'm just a mean green mother from outer space, and you've got me fighting mad!
I'm just a bloodsucking pissed off mother,
And, all I have to say to you is, brother...
I'm meeeeean and greeeeen, and I am-"
The cracks on his large pot burst, and baby plants the color of Audrey were in there. There was a baby plant that looked sad, and it was competely white. Every plant but the white one screamed at the top of their lungs...
"BAADD!!!"
A tentacle shot out and narrowly missed my left shoulder, sticking into the door like a bullet. Another one shot out and hit to the right, and a third came thisclose to hitting my crotch. It skimmed it, barely. I got angry.
"You're a stupid, mother-fucking son of a bitch!
But what you should know is that I'm not a regular witch!
My great-grandfather on my mother's side,
Is a Demon. Now, you're gonna DIE!"
I brandished my wand, and his tentacle cam zooming out, and grabbed it. It pointed it at me. Spells came zooming out of it. I was barely hit by a jelly-legs curse, and I couldn't run. He pulled himself closer with his tentacles, and his breath was like a vampire's... Honey-Suckle sweet, but underneath it was a distinctively rotten smell. Like dead bodies. I groaned inwardly as he breathed on me. His babies were all licking their lips.
"So, like I said before,
I'm not that hungry, but I'll kill you anyway.
Pretty soon, you'll be squashed on the floor,
With all the debris from the greenhouse crushing ye!"
His tentacles went and wrapped themselves around the support beams, and I groaned. He pulled them down, and I felt all the glass hitting my face. I was barely alive, and I think he was too. I reached a piece of glass, and held it in my hands, and felt around for the baby plant. I felt it, and it snuggled next to my hand, and I cut it off. then, I got angry, and blew up the glass on top of me. It melted all over, and I saw him laughing. I pointed my hands at him, and uttered a single word.
"INCENDIO!"
A scream, and he was gone. The baby plant looked at me, and started talking.
"Are they all gone?"
"Yes. I killed them all. What are you? I hope you understand, but if you're one of those, I'll have to kill you."
"No, I'm not. I only drink water... I'm a squib of the plant-type, I guess."
"Good. And then, I passed out, the flower in my hand.
