Chapter 2-The Potions Plan
On the way down to the dungeons they talked about how they would liven up Potions. When they got there, Snape spotted the smirks on their faces.
"Hmmm, maybe I should seperate the 5 of you today. Seeing as there are not 5 seperate seats..Potter, Melanie, you sit over there. Avril, you here, Weasley, there, and Rose, up front with me.
Rose made a face, but then also smirked...their plan would work out better if they were in different parts of the room.
Today in Double-Potions they would be learning two potions. For the first half, a Growth Draught, the second half, A Kindness Potion. The first half of class wasn't very interesting.
Snape threatened Rose with the Truth Potion a couple of times and criticized Avril, Melanie, Ron, and Harry's potions, but after the second half, the five of them put their plan into action.
Rose added too much Ashwinder eggs into her potion on purpose and spilled it on her arm. It burned her (but she didn't care. It was worth it and Madam Pomfrey could fix it in a minute).
Snape let her go to the Hospital Wing, but she didn't. She stood outside the classroom. When Snape was walking close to Avril's cauldron, Avril moved it out into the isle a bit with her foot.
Just as Snape was drawing ever so close to it. Melanie, Ron, and Harry all said "Sir!" at the same time. Snape whipped around to see what was going on.
From outside, Rose made Snape trip with her wand. He landed in Avril's Kindness Potion, splashing her with some too. When he got out of it he said. "I think you all deserve a break.
Class is dismissed, yes, Neville, I know it is five minutes before time to leave. Nice job on that potion by the way.
For homework, kindly read the chapters on Kindness Potions and Growth Potions for me. Summarize them. That will be all. Oh, and Harry, nice potion. It looks just perfect."
Avril, Harry, Ron, and Melanie met Rose out in the corridor and they walked her to the hospital wing laughing so hard they could hardly breathe. Snape was actually being nice!
"That....was....the best...Potions Class...yet" Melanie gasped through her breathless laughs. Everyone agreed. "We still have a bit of time before dinner, who will come down and visit Hagrid with me?" said Harry.
Everyone agreed to go with him. As they got into the entrance hall... The coast was clear or at least the five friends thought it was. They didn't notice Malfoy in the corner staring evily at them.
"I haven't seen Hagrid in while it'll be good to see his kind face again" said Avril. Everyone nodded. Rose noticed a movement in the dark corner but ignored it and kept walking.
They kept reliving over and over how good it was to see Snape be kind as they head across the lawn up to Hagrid's hut."Well if it isn't my favorite 5." said Hagrid.
"Glad none of those Dementors gave you the willies." "Its ok Hagrid," said Melanie "We're all fine." "Thas good." Hagrid replied. "Harry, Rose, no ones been givin yah trouble have they?"
"Well, Malfoys been on my case." said Harry.
"And no one knows about me" said Rose.
"I wonder why Malfoy won't leave you lot alone. He doesn't pick on anyone else half as much."
"Yeah well, Malfoys a rat, almost literally." said Melanie."
"Yeah well, don't get yerselves into trouble. Come out into the back, theres summit I want teh show yeh." said Hagrid.
The five of them followed Hagrid out behind his hut. They followed him a few feet into the forest where they saw a solid cliff.
"Here it is." said Hagrid. "Uh, Hagrid..." said Rose.
"It's a cliff." finished Ron. "Melanie, take out yer wand."
Melanie took out her wand. "Now, tap on the cliff an' say "Ornirum."
"Melanie did this and what they saw was incredible. The cliff opened up, and inside were four Winged Horses.
A Grey one, a Palimino one, a black one, and a chestnut one. "Hagrid." Breathed Harry. "Wait a minute." said Avril. "Hagrid you have to use magic to get in here, and you're not to use magic-"
"Yes I am." he said. "Ever since Harry, Ron and Hermione proved me innocent, I've been able teh.
The grey one is Thunder, the chestnut is Lightnin', the Black one is Storm, and the Palimino is Cloud."
"Did Dumbledore say you can keep them?" asked Melanie. "Uh, not exactly. He said, um, they might be dangerous 'cause their wild, but I've tamed 'em, their okay."
Just then the six of them heard a noise in the trees. They turned around just in time to see someone running away through the trees. "Malfoy!' shouted Rose, and she started to dart after him.
When she caught up to him she pointed her wand at him and said "Locomotor Mortis." Malfoy's legs sprang together and he tripped and landed face first a a puddle of slimy mud.
The rest came running up behind Rose. "Alright Rose!" shouted Ron.
"What were you doing out there Malfoy?" asked Rose coldly.
Malfoy tried to get up but everyone formed a circle around him and pulled out their wands and pointed them directly at him.
"Answer us" said Melanie.
"I..I..I.." stuttered Malfoy.
"You were looking for another way to get Hagrid fired, weren't you?" asked Harry.
"I-I-I-" "It didn't work last time, and it won't work this time either." said Ron.
"Because you're not going to tell anyone." said Avril.
"We'll make sure of that." said Rose, ponting her wand at him.
"If you do tell," said Melanie "you'll regret it."
"Go." said Rose, pointing through the thick trees toward the woods.
"And remember, you'll regret it."
