Please review! I'm trying to get a review ratio of 1/6 or 100 by easter!
Halley's Story: Chapter 1
It was the beginning of the new school year, and Halley Malfoy was sitting through one of her least favorite subjects, History of Magic. Now, you might be thinking Proffessor Binns, right? Wrong-Halley Malfoy isn't a Hogwarts student, but was a Fifth Year student at Durmstrang. Her teacher, Proffessor Amber (they called their teachers by their first names here) was telling them about an exchange student trip that they would be making in a few weeks.
"And each of you vill select a famous figure from this Jar, and vill join them for a veek and do some reaserch on their history and or jobs. You vill turn in your reports as soon as you return."
Professor Amber held up an enchanted green Jar that bore the Durmstrang crest on it (a black crescent moon on a background of silver along with a green D)
"That sounds interesting, I wonder who I will get?" whispered Halley to her friend Vicktoria Dintorv.
"I sure hope I get von of the Qwiddeech players!" Replied Vicky. Halley laughed.
Vicky was a huge quidditch fan, she was a walking encyclopedia and had memorized all 300 possible Quidditch fouls and every one of the formations and strategies used by proffesional athletes.
"I just hope I don't get some boring old ministry wizard..."
"Me too!"
"Halley! Victoria! This is not the chit-chat club! Will you pay attention?"
"Sorry, Proffesor." they replied in unison.
"As I was saying," snapped Professor Amber, "Your assignment is completely up to you, just think about who you want, and maybe the enchanted jar will give you that person....if you're lucky."
Vicky quickly scribbled Halley a note on the end of her Parchment scroll:
This'll be interesting...
Halley scrawled back,
I don't really want anyone in particular, but I'll think of a quidditch player so maybe we'll be together!
Vickey made an A-Okay sign with her thumb and fingers.
One by one, each of the students in Halley's class picked their project with varying sound affects ranging from a whispered "Yes!" to a loud "NOOO!"
Then it was Vicky's turn. She picked Adrian Lynch, the Seeker from the Ireland Quidditch Team, and Halley approached the Green Jar. She reached her had in and picked out the first slip she touched thinking desperately, "Quidditch Player! Quidditch Player!" but her requests were only partly granted; when Halley looked at the lime green slip of paper, it read Harry Potter.
