Five/ Detention
Harry and Dorothy walked to detention together side by side. Dorothy somehow managed to bring up the topic of the witch. So for the rest of the trip was quiet till Harry walked into a wall which he thought was a door.
***
"Now for your Detention" Snape said happily like it was a good thing he was stuck with them. "I have just mixed up a truth potion and I will be using it on both of you" he showed a bottle he was holding.
Harry turned pale he remembered that night when Barty Crouch took the truth potion, he felt sick unlike Dorothy who didn't really care at all but then again she didn't have to live through the things he had.
***
"And thank-you Dorothy saying you will take the truth potion first I will both test you tomorrow at lunchtime for you, also Professor Dumbledore already knows what I'm doing so telling him won't get you out of it."
Harry and Dorothy left his class room silent, Harry hoped he would be able to go back to the boys dorm and find Ron so he could tell him what was happening.
But to Harry's misfortune Cho was waiting outside for him.
"Harry" Cho said running towards him, "Harry wait up." Harry stopped and turned around to let her catch up.
"Yeah what?" Harry asked in a grumpy voice
"Oh well I just thought you would like to come to the ball with me?" Cho cooed in her soft voice
"Sorry but I'm going with her..."
Harry turned round and pointed at Dorothy who was doing some sort of jig on the yellow bricks singing "follow the yellow brick road, follow the yellow brick road, follow, follow, follow, follow, follow the yellow brick road..."
"Oh" Cho looked a bit upset and disappointed but soon it turned into a frown.
"WELL IF THAT'S WHAT IS GOING TO HAPPEN TO ME, I MIGHT AS WELL NOT GO TO THE BALL AT ALL!" Cho turned around and stamped off not even caring to say sorry to Dorothy after pushing her aside.
***
"Harry? Harry? HARRY?" Hermione yelled at him before pushing him off the seat
"Ouch! What was that for Herm?" Harry said standing up and rubbing his knee.
"Well I have spent five minutes of my life just trying to wake you up, so you better be able to give back those five minutes you've just wasted for me."
Harry gave one look at Hermione and knew she was insane but then again who would really care.
"Harry I'm waiting for my five minutes you owe me" Hermione started tapping her foot.
"Harry I'm waiting"
Harry bent down and picked up a quill he wrote on a piece paper Five minutes added to Hermione's life' Harry felt like an idiot while handing over the piece of paper. Hermione took it off him and read it then put it in her pocket.
"Thank-you Harry I will use those five minutes when I need it most."
"Is it just me or is everyone going insane this week?"
Harry muttered to himself after Hermione had left the Griffindor common room.
***
"Herm? HERM? HERMIONE?"
"What? What? What?" Hermione looked up from the book she was reading to said Ron waiting for her. "Oh what do you want Ron?"
"What are you doing?" Ron asked
"I'm reading"
"No duh. I...Want...To...Know...Why...You...Are...Reading...What...Ever...You...Are...Reading?" Ron asked very slowly.
"I-AM-READING-THE-WIZARD-OF-OZ" Hermione replied in the same tone Ron had asked him.
"Why?"
"COS I THINK I KNOW HOW TO GET RID OF THE OZ PEOPLE"
"Right..."
***
At lunch in the great hall everyone was silent. Ever since the oz people came the noise is the great hall was getting more and more silencer and now there was no noise at all, apart from a few whispers to each other.
Hermione finally left her corner in the library for lunch and took a seat next to Ron and Lion at lunch. Wondering where Harry and Dorothy were she turned to Lion to ask him.
"Do you know where Harry and Dorothy are?" she asked
"I thought you knew were they were?"
"Well I don't"
"You should"
"Well I don't"
"Don't forget I'm going to the ball with you remember?"
"Yes... Wait I don't remember saying that"
"You should"
"Well I don't"
"You should"
"Well I don't"
"You should"
"Well I don't"
"You should"
"WELL I DON'T AND IF YOU ASK ME IF I SHOULD REMEMBER ONE MORE THING I'M CHANGING SPOTS AND WILL SIT NEXT TO SOME ONE ELSE!"
"Fine I'll do it myself" And Lion moved over one spot next to Lavender.
***
"Harry walked along the corridor with Dorothy, wishing that what ever he had to do he didn't have to do it.
"Harry" Dorothy's voice broke his thoughts "Do you think that a truth potion makes you tell the truth? She asked. Harry was amazed on how she could even be a witch.
"Yes a truth potion makes you tell the truth"
"Really?" she asked
"Yes Really"
"Harry how does it feel if you have taken the truth potion?"
"I don't know since I have never taken it."
"Really?"
"Yes Really."
"Harry what do you think it does the truth potion I mean?"
"Don't know, don't care" Harry was not in the mood to answer.
"Really?"
"YES REALLY"
***
"Now I will not let you leave until we get this over and done with this test. Dorothy you first." Snape gave her a cup of the potion and slowly she drank it before lying down.
"I see a house with a farm. Wait a minute it's my farm in Kansas. Hey there's Aunt Em "
Dorothy said with her eyes closed Harry gave a slight laugh, the potion was really meant to make a drifty far off look come to her eyes so that Snape could ask her any thing which would be answered truthfully. Snape ignored went on.
"I want to know how you got accepted to this school and when you will leave?" He asked
"I'm sorry I can not tell you that information, please check your question and try again."
Dorothy didn't really have that far off look, so maybe the truth potion didn't have effect on her.
:::5 minutes later:::
"And for the last time I want to know how you came to this school and how you will leave?" Snape really now seemed to be mad and about to go insane.
"Like I said I'm sorry I can not tell you that information, please check your question and try again."
Dorothy now seemed to be enjoying herself, but Harry knew better then to test Snape's patience.
"I DON'T GIVE A DAMN ABOUT IF I'M NOT ALLOWED TO FIND OUT ABOUT THAT QUESTION I JUST WANT TO KNOW WHEN YOU WILL LEAVE, SINCE DUMBLEDORE WON'T TELL ME HIM SELF! SO TELL ME OR ELSE..."
"Or else what?" Dorothy said sitting up.
"OR ELSE I WILL MAKE SURE YOU FAIL EVERY SUBJECT YOU DO FOR THE REST OF THE TIME YOU ARE HERE!!!"
"Really?"
"YES REALLY?"
"Well in that case I see there is no need on doing detention, come on Harry lets leave." And Dorothy picked up her basket that was near the door dragged Harry with her out of the room.
***
After lunch Hermione waited in the library for Harry. For flying they had to do a project about Quidditch, and since she was hopeless at the sport Harry had said he would help her. Harry now owned her another five minutes but she just couldn't wait any longer looking round the library she saw the witch looking through the books on the shelf. Hermione got up and went to the witch to ask her if she could help her with her work after all she was the Seeker on the Quidditch team.
"Yes my pretty, all in good time, all in good time" The witch replied to her question.
Hermione gave her a funny look on what did she mean by all in good time but she didn't really care now that she had some help from the witch.
***
"Harry guess what?" Hermione had just came back for the library while Ron followed her out.
"What"
"Well remember the other day when we were having dinner and I said I had found this book and..."
"You tripped, fell on top of Lion and said you would go to the ball with him and after that Ron..."
"Spat food in my face, and yes Ron I can see you." Hermione said turning around to a sniggering Ron.
"And so what is your point?" Harry asked tapping Hermione on the shoulder who was still giving the evil eye at Ron.
"I was just coming to that Harry. Well back to what I was saying, I have found a book, the book to help us get rid of the Oz people. That's if we want too. Which I think we all do."
"Well good for you Herm, but if you don't mind me saying I think the Oz people will be going soon. Now I am going to get some supper." And Harry went out of the door.
:::One-Week Later:::
It was only two more weeks till the Winter Ball. Classes were now back on since the main hall had been rebuild. Harry was now back with the trio since Dorothy was now spending more time back with Lion. It was a windy, wet Thursday, which also showed signs of snow coming.
Harry was sitting in the common room, finishing off some last minute homework. When Hermione came down.
"Hi Harry"
"Hi Herm"
"What's up?
"Nothing"
"What class are you having now?"
"Divination" Harry groaned at the thought of it, today was not his day.
"Well if you hate it so much why haven't you pulled out yet?"
"Like I said last time its too late to change"
"What's Ron now taking?"
"Well he is now taking Muggle Studies, last year's prediction was a bit too much for him." Harry said remembering how last year in his fifth year Professor Trelawney had told Ron that his next biggest fear would be food. That of course freaked Ron enough to change subjects. Harry didn't change though saying that using muggle things would remind him too much of the Dursleys.
"Oh yeah I remember. Well bye Harry"
"See you"
Just as Hermione left, Ron walked down the stairs with a book right in font of his face
"Hi Harry" Ron said without even putting the book down.
"Hi Ron, and if you don't mine me saying since when did you turn into a book worm like Hermione?"
"Oh this," Ron said holding up the book "this The Wizard Of Oz, I borrowed it from Hermione who borrowed it from the Library, and I only have one more chapter yet to read."
"Really?"
"Yes."
"Ok"
"Well I have to go to class now Harry"
"Ok"
"Well I will see you at lunch then"
"Ok"
"Bye Harry"
"Bye Ron"
:::Muggle Studies:::
"This week in class I want you all to read a muggle book for homework about witches and wizards."
"Yes Professor"
"Good, now I have ten copies of The Wizard of Oz, two for The Lord of the Rings and five for The Lion the Witch and The Wardrobe."
The class nodded.
"So put your hand up if you want The Wizard of Oz." The nearly the whole classes hands went up apart from a few including Lion's, Lavender's (she had also changed classes as well because her parents wanted to learn about muggle's life from a wizard's point of view) and Ron's.
At the end of the class Lavender and Lion got The Lion the Witch and the Wardrobe, and Ron got The Lord of the Rings. While everyone was putting their books in their bags Ron was also having trouble in just moving the book by the end of class he had just managed to move the book back to his table before trying to fit it in his bag. He had gotten one in hardback containing all three books with illustrations.
:::Divination:::
Harry groaned as soon as class started, most of the class had changed to Muggle studies or Arithmany and Harry was now wishing that he had done the same.
"Gooooooooood Mooooooooorrrrrrrrrringgggggggg Classssss, it is still good to see that some of you have not turned towards the dark side by leaving this class" Professor Trelawney said entering the room her misty voice filling the air. Harry rolled his eyes he was sure that he was not the only one that did as well. "And LOOK I see we have a new student here today. And what is your name little girl... Wait let me guess. Your name is... Dorothy!"
Dorothy sighed before talking, she was getting tried of this class already, "Well there is no surprise on that you know my name. I mean I have been here for like four weeks and Dumbledore told everyone in the great hall my name when I came and I am wearing a badge saying "My name is Dorothy" on my robes so of course you would know my name."
"Oh" Professor Trelawney was shocked, never had there been a time when she was noted and proved wrong.
"And I don't see how leaving this class also can make you turn t o the dark side. I mean for all the people I've heard to have left this class only one of them was on the dark side and he was already on the dark side before he even left your class."
"I see..." Professor Trelawney was still shocked. "Well then lets just forget all this and begin today's lesson on Scars." Harry groaned he knew she meant him. "Now I want anyone with a scar to sand up." No one moved apart from Harry stood up.
Professor Trelaweny rushed over to Harry and traced her finder across Harry's scar with her eyes shut.
"I see a girl... A girl with long brown hair" everyone looked at Dorothy "That girl is the someone that will betray you... Very soon." Professor Trelaweny stoped for a second then screamed "Oh I see that girl stabbing you over and over and over again. This is not a happy scar you have here boy." She took her hand away and opened her eyes. "Which leads me to my point, scars can tell the future"
Harry looked around and saw that every on was staring at him. "I really do need to get a body guard then since I am going to expecting to die ten times already and that every class I am expected to die a different way."
"Professor, Professor I don't know how Harry's friend can betray him, after all I know all his friends and that they would never do such a thing." Dorothy asked her arm still waving in the air.
"I would not speak in case you would be the one who could betray him." Professor Trelawney said.
"I don't think so since I would never stab someone only throw a bucket of water at them."
Professor Trelaweny did not answer to that one apart from their homework "Homework is to read pages 203 to 250 on scars and I want a 5 meter long essay on how scars can tell the future."
After that everyone fumbled for their books and quills to write that down, after leaving as quick as they could.
:::Arithmancy:::
As soon as class started Hermione was in a bad mood. The Witch had taken her favourite place. Right in the centre in the front row. So she had to sit right at the back of the classroom right next to the wall which was the last place left.
Professor Vector was late for the class to start and Hermione noticed that the witch had already known the basics of Arithmancy.
Hermione sat though the rest of the class very silent. The Witch seemed to be earning a hundred points every time she answered a question, maybe because the teachers felt sorry because of the amount of points which had been taken off.
When class had finally finished the Witch had got three thousand points for Gryffindor which meant that they still had 100, 000, 310, 612,788 points left to earn before they would be back at zero.
***
"Hi Ron, how was class?" Hermione asked Ron.
"It went well. For homework we have to read and report on a muggle book. How did your class go?"
"Terrible. Apart from the fact that the witch is so smart she doesn't have to do homework."
"Really?" Ron said raising his eyebrows.
"Oh and by the way what book do you have to read for homework?" Hermione said to quickly change the subject.
"Lord of the Rings."
"Really? Isn't that the book with about a thousand pages."
"I knoooooooooooooow and I only have a week to read it."
"Well looks like you will be doing a lot of reading then."
"Ha, ha"
