Carpe Diem: Second Year Revision

by Alec6427/NecessaryEvil

Disclaimer: The Harry Potter universe, created by JK Rowling, does not belong to me, it does in fact belong to the sick mind that keeps torturing these poor kids. I just give the characters a little vacation into my much less sadistic world. The characters not in the books but in this fic are open to be used in others fanfic just give me a little credit k. Don't you just love me?

A/N: Ok I just realized that these characters are indeed three years younger than I keep thinking, seeing as how I went back to the second year, as such I have decided on something that you will most likely immediately see once the chapter has started. I love my reviewers, except you David, because mate you are a good friend so I dearly despise you. Anyway where are you, it's been chapters since I've gotten a review.

Well then we should push on shouldn't we. On with the show mates.

Chapter Twelve:

Ruins

"Nothing happened,"

"Right and that's why we had to wait twenty minutes while you to got dressed,"

"Ok, nothing sexual happened,"

"While you got dressed after snogging in a sleeping bag,"

"Ok all we did was kiss,"

"While naked in a sleeping bag,"

"We had to find some way to keep warm without holding up our wands all night. Don't you know anything about wilderness survival?"

"Not as much, but I do know a bit about what you know how to summon, and that includes a tent with built in fireplace,"

"Well I admit we weren't really thinking that much, but we didn't shag,"

"Not thinking, the pair of you, I don't believe that coming from a pair of Ravenclaw could have beens,"

"O shove it Ron," Harry said testily, "Or I'll stick you and Hermione out there,"

"You want to risk Will's fate?"

"What was his punishment anyway?"

"Detention with Lockhart,"

"Ouch, and I should be thanking him too. Me and Cho probably would have kept on fighting forever if it hadn't been for him,"

"No, you and Cho wouldn't have gone on fighting forever. You like each other too much. Have I ever told you what a cute couple you two make,"

"On numerous occasions,"

"Right then,"

Everyone was in the Great Hall for breakfast for the first time in Hogwarts history. There was no particular reason, it just sort of happened. At the Draconis table Hermione had joined Ron, Harry, and Cho for breakfast for once and while Ron and Hermione bickered a bit, Harry and Cho just watched them while holding back a fit of laughter. Above them Fred and George were talking with Will and Ben and it sounded like there were two minds between the four bodies;

"You'll never convince us,"

"That there is any teacher worse that Snape,"

"Well let me tell you,"

"Radiego is far,"

"Far worse,"

And so on, above them Ember was absent mindedly shuffling a deck of poker cards and every once in awhile he would toss one off and it would explode, next to him Colin was taking pictures of Harry and Cho together, next to him April and Jen were discussing test scores, on the other side of the steps Dean and Ernie were talking about Transfiguration homework, below them Draco was staring off towards one of the other house's tables (guess which...no not Slytherin have you even been reading this story?) and Jeremy and Hermes were talking about April and Jen. Jessica had gone off to chat with Ginny since she kinda thought Draco was a nicer guy than he let on and wanted to see what Ginny thought of him.

Hermione and Ron were just getting to the part of their bickering where the only real words were You and Are when it happened, the earth shook. It wasn't an earth quake at least not a normal one, something was going on outside the school and as soon as this was figured out everyone wanted to know what. There was a rush for the door. The Draconis house, being closest, got there first with Will and Ben in the lead. When they got to the door the both stopped dead, Harry looked at them and he knew by their faces that they had seen something like these ruins before and whatever they were, they weren't a good sign.

Indeed they were ruins. Underneath it all was a platform surrounded by steps, on top were a few standing pillars, but most were toppled. On each pillar was a different symbol all were strange. In the middle of the platform was a stand, half of it had crumbled off and sticking out were three sticks of Obsidian. The rest of the structure was made of marble that had been decaying for countless decades. This was an old thing.

A/N: This was short I know, but I kept getting zoned out and I just wanted to get something out today. Please R/R.
