VOLDY-POO!
By Belladonna Dwale
Author's note: Thanks to Duckie for giving me the name Floofie and DS for Putney Lane. Thanks to Moony for the name Blanch. Yes, Gravesend, Kent is a real place. I found it in an 18-year-old out of date book called Beautiful Britain. No, I don't own any characters in the story except for Blanch and Floofie.
A black dog slowly walked down the stairway that lead to the dungeon. He paused at the foot of the stairs, not sure where to go. He stuck his head into the small room where the potions classes were held. There sitting at the desk was Professor Severus Snape. The dog quietly walked up to the man and sat at his feet. The professor didn't seem to notice he was busy rubbing his head and staring at his arm.
"Are you all right?"
The professor practically jumped from his chair. He glared at the man standing where the dog had been sitting -- the one he hadn't noticed. "Don't you ever do that to me again Sirius Black or it will be the last thing you ever do," He hissed at the intruder.
"Do what?"
"Sneak up on me, that's what. Anyway, you shouldn't be here like this. A student could come in and -"
Sirius interrupted, "It's the middle of the night! No one's going to be up!"
"Well, Black, it appears to me that you're up and so am I... I also recall that you and your friends had the habit of running amuck at this time of night..."
Sirius turned red from frustration. "Fine, then why don't we talk in your office. I assume you have one since you're a teacher," he hissed.
Snape turned white. "No, we can't do that."
"Why not?" Sirius asked.
"It's not something you should ask about," Snape hissed.
Sirius wasn't paying any attention. He turned around and headed to Snape's office.
"Black!" Snape hissed.
Sirius opened the door to Snape's office and started laughing.
A little white poodle with two little pink ribbons on each ear and another pink ribbon on it's tail scampered out of the office and up to Sirius and began jumping up and down yipping a bit. As it jumped up Sirius could see that it had a little pink collar with rhinestones on it and that it also had a pink heart shaped identification tag.
"I hardly think it's humorous, Black," came the voice from behind him.
Sirius snorted, "Snape, I can't believe you have a -- " he snickered " -- a poodle."
The Potions Master frowned at the fluffball, "I'm watching the blasted animal for Mundungus Fletcher."
Sirius grinned, "That's what they all say." He picked up the dog and read the name tag out loud:
Floofie Snape
13 Putney Lane
Gravesend
Kent
Snape turned red, "Fine, it is my dog but don't mock me Black. I can easily turn you over to the authorities."
Sirius shrugged and began patting Floofie's head. "You probably should keep an eye on Floofie."
"Why Black? Do you fancy Floofie?"
Sirius turned a brilliant shade of red. "No! It's Blanch! She wants to make armies of ... animals. You know, the ones women look at and say, 'Oh isn't that such a darling little thing?' I think Floofie might fall in that category." Sirius stared at Floofie. "You know, Floofie is a boy..."
"Really Black?" Snape replied sarcastically, "I didn't know that..."
"Well, why are his nails painted pink?"
Snape took Floofie from Sirius and rolled his eyes, "My five year old niece did it."
Sirius smirked. "I don't think pink is his color."
"What do you mean 'not his color'? Of course it's his bloody color."
Sirius shrugged, "Why not blue or green. After all you're the Slytherin -"
"HIS BLOODY COLOR IS PINK YOU BASTARD!" Snape roared.
The big black dog was sitting in front of Snape and Floofie where Sirius had been. Standing at the door was Draco Malfoy.
"Who are you yelling at, Professor?" asked the boy.
"None of your buisiness, Draco. Go back to bed."
"What's with the dogs?"
"GET BACK TO BED OR I'LL GIVE YOU A BLOODY DETENTION!"
Malfoy quickly turned and ran to bed
