"Boring!" Hermione said in the Potions Class.
"Hermione! Shut up!" Ron whispered.
"Make me."
"Five points taken from both of you Gryffindors," Snape yelled.
"Thanks a lot, Hermione," Ron said in a mean tone.
"What did I do?" Hermione asked innocently.
"You got us to lose ten points!"
"And that will be twenty each if you don't be quiet," Snape threatened. "Now, moving on. Amberleed is essential to what potion?"
Harry remained quiet during the entire time though he wasn't paying attention to a thing Snape lectured on. He thought about Hermione and all the others' condition.
"POTTER!"
Harry snapped out of his thoughts and looked in the direction the voice came from.
"I've been asking you the same question three times, already, Potter," Snape scolded. "The least you could do is to LOOK LIKE you're paying attention."
"Sorry, Professor," Harry apologized. "What was the question?"
"What is the most important ingredient needed in the Long Range Normalizer Potion?"
Harry didn't remember Snape saying anything about that, but he answered the first thing that came into his mind.
"Natural water."
"Correct. Now, where can you find natural water?"
"Rivers, seas, lakes, oceans, anywhere as long they were naturally created."
"Correct again. Today we'll be reviewing the potion we learned about two days ago..."
Harry realized that the Long Range Normalizer Potion was probably the opposite of the goblet's purpose.
The lunch bell rang. The owl Harry sent out the day before dropped a letter on his plate.
"Who's it from?" Ron asked.
"Sirius."
"Open it!"
Harry tore the seal off and opened the letter.
"Ahem. It says:
Dear Harry,
I have heard of such a goblet. It's known as the Shao Mai Goblet. It was accidentally given the feature of the ability to change one's mind.
The only way to change any victim back to normal is to have the victim change himself through the goblet OR use a Long Range Normalizer Potion in the goblet by pouring it into the goblet water (while it's in use.).
From,
Sirius"
"A Long Range Normalizer Potion?" Ron exclaimed. "That's a hard potion to make."
"It's also the potion Snape asked me about."
"Hunh?"
"Snape quizzed me about the most important ingredient needed in the Long Range Normalizer Potion."
"What is it?"
"I really don't know, but I answered, 'natural water' and it was correct."
"Well, counter potions always use at least one of the ingredients used in the opposite."
"Ron, natural water is the ONLY ingredient used in the Shao Mai Goblet."
"What goblet?" Hermione's voice came out. She was right behind the two.
"Hermione!" Ron exclaimed. "How much did you hear?"
"Just the Sho Mi whatever goblet part."
"I can see that you're back to normal," Harry said.
"Normal? Why, I have ALWAYS been normal, Potter."
"I take back the 'normal' part," Harry muttered.
"Replace it with, 'your deranged self'," Ron remarked.
"I heard that," Hermione said. "I'm going to see some other friend." She walked off.
"Where's she going now?"
"To see her friend," Harry answered.
"Her friend is Draco?!"
"Draco?"
"Ooklay overay owardstay ouryay ightray."
"Why are you speaking in pig latin?"
"I just felt like it."
Harry "ookedlay overay owardstay ishay ightray" and saw Hermione whispering something to Draco.
"I think she heard our whole conversation about the goblet."
"Really."
"Well, Draco IS giving his glare to us."
"So?"
Meanwhile, as Harry and Ron were talking, Draco watches them for about ten seconds and resumes eating.
"Thank you Hermione. You may leave the table if you wish. Your spying is over for now." Draco said to Hermione. He muttered, "I thought you were the one behind the disappearance of that goblet, Potter. I'm sure we'll be meeting sooner or later, one-on-one. I will not allow you to disrupt my plans this time."
A sharp pain suddenly slashed through Harry's scar.
"Hermione! Shut up!" Ron whispered.
"Make me."
"Five points taken from both of you Gryffindors," Snape yelled.
