Bebopodiggity: Please note that anytime Draco is mentioned in ANY of my stories, he's being tortured. Please re-think your request to have more of him in my stories. ;-)

~Cait: *Is still soaking Eyeballs*~

~Cait: *Perks Up* ...for an old man, yesh.~

He's not...THAT old....

(SPG: Technically, he is...but he's old in that "Sean Connery" way)

As in, he's old enough to have fathered our parents, but it's okay, because he still looks damn good?

(SPG: Exactly!)

~Cait: Riiiiight....anyway....storytime?~

Chapter 9: Tragic Remnants of Innocence

(SPG: now theres a good Gothic title)

Ariana had ceased showing up for her dark arts lessons with professor snape, which was all the better in his opinion. after the kiss, he'd decided it best to pretend Ariana didn't exist...Snapes Favorite way of avoiding situations.

Christmas was Rushing up at the students at an alarming pace, And To anyone who would care to Notice, Ariana had seemingly returned to normal. Instead of the strange black potions book, she began carrying her bible, and to all the world, she was back to being the Christian one. even her Schrubble, which was, at the current moment a strange puke green color and humming "take me to your leader" by the Newsboys, seemed to have taken a Christian attitude.

but life hadn't changed so drastically for Ariana.

Not yet.

as the train pulled from the hogsmeade station, the strange crew of slytherins were seated in a compartment towards the back.

"Can't wait to get home" Shane let a toothy grin explode across his face. "I miss my Mums cooking, and i need to restock my Supplies."

"Supplies?" Ariana asked, a confused look about her face.

"Shane's an Artist. draws all kinds of....er....." Michelle trailed off.

"I draw dead people." Shane finished, looking deadly serious.

Ariana looked strangely at shane, shook her head and turned to Sarah. "what about you? looking forward to the Holidays?"

"Aye." Sarah replied simply from behind a large book.

"how does your family celebrate?" Ariana pressed, not to be ignored for a book.

"You know, the Usual, we trim the tree with endtrails, make squirrell-spice soup, drink eggnog with Spider Eggs..." Sarah replied non-chantly. "Normal Christian Traditions.

Shane and michelle could do nothing but laugh at the expression of Horror that covered Arianas face.

--

"So, how was School?" Stephen Azivedo asked, as Ariana sat down across from them on the large maroon couch, the same couch she'd curled up on a few months prior, Panicing about the school of witchcraft.

"It's amazing! i have all these funny teachers, Like Professor Flitwick, and Madam Hooch, and the Headmaster, Dumbledore!" Ariana began to gush about school, talking rapidly and excitbly.

--

later that night, having told her parents every detail about school, save for the *Book*, Ariana raced up the stairs to her bedroom above, and never heard her fathers voice, barely above a whisper.

"that git severus became a professor?"

--

"Whats it like?"

"Does everyone curse each other?"

"Do they Curse you?"

"Are there any other Christians there?"

"Do they curse you?"

"Do you curse them?"

Ariana stooda against the barrage of questions from her fellow classmates in the youth group, Labeled affectionatly "NaCl"

"It's fun....No, No, Yes, No, No." she replied as quickly as possible, unable to keep up with the pressing questions.

"Did they try to burn your bible?"

"Do they Hate Christians?"

"Do they hate you?"

"is it true that to Graduate you have to grow a wart?"

"No, No, No, WHAT?" ariana blanced.

"Just something i heard." the small blonde whispered.

--

"I need a holiday to recover from my holiday." Ariana whispered, slouching dramatically in her seat.

"It couldn't have been that bad...." Michelle commented, frantically scribbling her potions Essay.

"Want to bet? my whole bloody youth group bombarded me with questions, then my dad made me stand up in front of the entire church and tell them i was winning souls for the kingdom of God...Then my mom had all the ladys of the church lay hands on me in prayer! then.....michelle, what are you doing?"

"Potions Essay. Snape assigned it."

"BLOODY HELL!" Ariana Shrieked, making a dive for Michelles book. "Lemme borrow your book!"

"Why?" Michelle asked, looking calmly up at Ariana.

"Because i forgot to do the Essay!" Ariana Shrieked.

"Like Snape would notice." Shane threw in.

"what do you mean?" Ariana stopped reaching to look across at Shane.

"He hasn't noticed you in class since you cursed those students." Shane replied. "He doesnt even name you during Role."

"thats only because he knows i'm there." Ariana defended, but Shane only raised an eyebrow in response.

"Shut up, Shane." Ariana Narrowed her eyes and pushed the book back to Michelle.

"Mind if i Squeeze in?" a Tall very American looking Girl appeared at the door to the compartment. "Things got a little...err...Hairy Up front."

"A RavenClaw?" Sarah smirked. "Aren't you afraid we're going to Defile you?"

"Hardly." was the girls simple reply as she sat down between Shane and Sarah.

"I'm Chiroay."

"You're the werewolf i cursed at Halloween!" Ariana commented, noticing that the girls facial shape had the same look as the werewolfs.

"yes." Chiroay replied, Cocking an eyebrow at Ariana.

"Bloody Yank-werewolves." Shane hissed under his breath.

Chiroay stood to her feet, and faced Shane, her face barely an inch from Shanes.

"Arf." She replied simply, her face set in a manner that seemed to terrify Shane.

"My you're....Tall." Shane commented, but immediatly jumped up, causing Chiroay to step back. The short black haired boy lept onto the seat, and looked down at Chiroay. "HAH! I'M TALLER!" he looked triumphant.

"He's joking, right...?" Chiroay turned to face Ariana and Michelle.

"Don't bet on it." Michelle replied non-chantly, still scribbling her essay.

"YUS!" Shane bellowed in a growl of a cheer, then started dancing on the seat, as though Hardcore death Metal music was playing.

"Nevermind what i asked about joining you guys." Chiroay commented, and very calmly made for the door.

"No, Join us." Sarah patted the seat, then instantly ripped her hand away, as Shane 'happened' to let his foot fall only centemeters away.

"Yes." Ariana smirked. "Join us in our insanity."
