After lunch, the Gryffindors and Slytherins scrambled outside. Hagrid was always nervous for his
first class. He ridgidly walked outside, wringing his wrists.
"Settle down...settle down. Alrigh'. T'day we're going to learn about puffskeins. Does anyone
know what a puffskein is?"
Lucidia immediatly put her hand up. Lara stared at her.
"Lucidia?"
"The puffskein is a common wizarding pet. It is found all over the world. It is normally a spherical
shape and is a custard colour. It is a docile creature. It has no objection to being cuddled or thrown.
They are easy care."
"Wow!" Hagrid said. "15 points ter Gryffindor!"
Lucidia smiled.
"You're worse than Georgia!" Lara whispered.
Lucidia just glanced at Lara.
"Alrigh'! Be right back. I need ter get the puffskeins!"
Hagrid went into his yard.
"Nice description, Black. Thinking of becoming like your friend, Weasley? 'The puffskein is a common
wizarding pet...and I am a know it all'," Permia said.
Alexandra and Jamison burst out laughing.
Starla stepped forward.
"I dare you to say that again!"
"OOOO! Watch out, Starla. Wouldn't want your daddy to come and take you out now would you?"
The Slytherins howled with laughter.
Lucidia now stepped forward.
"You best hold your tongue, if you know what's good for you!"
"oooo! Miss Black wants to join Miss Werewolf on the train home!"
Lucidia scrunched up her face and started toward Permia. Lara grabbed Lucidia's arm.
"LET GO OF ME!"
"No...Lucidia don't!"
"LET GO OF ME, NOW, LARA!"
Just then, Hagrid returned.
"Alrigh'. Here are the puffskeins..."
Lucidia glared at Malfoy and Malfoy glared back, grinning.
"Just wait..." Lucidia muttered.
After the lesson, everyone piled up to the castle.
Permia walked, fast, past Lucidia.
"Oh look at me!" she said, swinging her hips. "I am the almighty know it all!"
Alexandra and Jamison snickered and Lucidia tightened her fists.
"Just walk past her...just walk past!" Lara hissed in her ear.
"I know what a puffskein is! It's a custard coloured animal!"
Permia turned around. WHAM! Lucidia punched her, right on the bridge of her nose.
Permia's nose began to bleed.
Alexandra and Jamison were looking at Malfoy for what to do.
"LET'S GO, ALEX AND JAMI!" Malfoy yelled and turned on her heel.
"You were lucky!" Alexandra hissed, in Lucidia's ear.
"You shouldn't have done that!" Lara said.
"Permia is lucky I didn't do more..." Lucidia growled and marched up to the castle.
