Nat Sue
Chapter Eight

Nat yawned sleepily. She'd been awake for six whole hours and she wasn't enjoying it. At least on weekdays she'd been able to sleep during classes, but everyone else seemed to want to go watch the Quidditch game (Ravenclaw vs. Hufflepuff) so Nat resigned herself to going in hopes it would make her fit in better. But first... There was a Fluffy to take care of.
"C'mon Fluffles!" Nat prompted, pulling the thick chain around Fluffy's neck. "We need to go see -damn you're strong!- that big dumb dude with the animals!"
Fluffy didn't seem to think they needed to visit Hagrid though, and jerked Nat to the floor of her dorm where he promptly made himself comfortable on top of her. "Get off, yo!" Nat ordered weakly as she began to suffocate under Fluffy's huge mass. "oooff meeaaaaaahhhhhh!" Nat tried to scream as her air supply was nearly exhausted. When Nat was about to use the last of her air to try to scream for help, she realized that she could breathe again, and that Fluffy was hovering about a foot above her.
"What the hell?" Nat mumbled as she caught her breath. Fluffy settled to his feet a few feet away from her, and Nat was now looking up into Draco's cold glare. "What were you doing with your pet?" Draco sneered. Nat narrowed her eyes before she burst into laughter. "Oh my God! That's so sick! Only you would think of that! I knew from the minute I saw you that..." Nat trailed off as she began laughing too hard to continue. "What the hell are you talking about now, Muddy?" Nat stopped laughing abruptly and looked at Draco. "What do you... Oh..." Nat burst into peals of laughter again as Draco tried to figure out what she thought was so funny.
"What the HELL do you find so amusing, you worthless, Muggle-born, squib?!" Draco finally shouted after he failed to catch on. Nat stopped laughing once again and stood up to face him. "Listen, Malfoy." Nat said in a dangerously low voice and took a step closer, "Just because you think I'm a Mudblood does not mean you're right." Nat stepped closer causing Draco to take a slight step backwards. "Just because you think I can't cast spells and am a complete ditz does not mean that I'm not here on a super secret mission to gather information about stupid Muggle loving bastards like Dumbledore and the Gryffindors. So why don't you watch your Goddamn, slimy mouth unless you know what in the hell you're talking about?" Nat took a final step forward, which caused Draco to take a full step back. Draco blinked for a minute, and Nat just stared calmly into his eyes (they were a very pretty grayish) and waited for what she said to sink in.
"You're a... spy?" Draco finally managed. Nat smirked, seeing Draco lose his cool, for even a minute, was something she thought very few people ever saw. "Not exactly, but yes." Nat grinned as she took a step back and sat down on Fluffy's back. "You see, I was raised to be like a Mudblood. I've had no training as far as magic goes, although I'm supposed to have 'great potential' or some shit like that. I was supposed to be in Gryffindor or Hufflepuff, so my cover would have worked, but unfortunately that didn't happen quite right. So, I need to kind of mix between houses a bit, since things won't work very well if I act like a normal Slytherin. So, basically, I need to stay somewhat on the outskirts of Slytherin, at least for a bit, until I've made some good connections with other houses. But I really shouldn't have told you alllllllll that, yo. So like, you can tell the other members of the house, but this cannot get out to anyone else, okay?" Nat took a deep breath and hoped Draco would buy it. For a minute, it seemed like he wouldn't, but Nat had perfected the art of looking honest long ago, and eventually he smirked and said: "Alright. I'll make sure you keep your cover. You should have told me this earlier, you wouldn't have had to mess with Pansy at all. Stupid bitch." Nat wasn't sure whether that last part was directed at Pansy or herself, but decided not to press the issue.
"Anyhow, I have to take Fluffy to see uhm... That big dude with the animals." Nat said, picking up Fluffy's chain again and positioning herself on Fluffy's back like he was a horse. "You're going to ride him?" Draco asked skeptically. "Eww, no! You're really sick, Draco!" Nat said, smirking as Draco got a quizzical look on his face. "Never mind, I'll tell you when you're older." Nat said calmly, kicking Fluffy on the sides and then positioning her legs Indian style on his back as he began to walk out the door. Draco scratchd his head as he watched Nat and Fluffy crawl out the door, and Nat said a little prayer, thanking God Draco had been so gullible.

Going down the stairs on Fluffy's back was a challenge, but Nat eventually managed. Passing by the Quidditch field Nat gazed lazily at the Ravenclaw team warming up. Nat had never seen a Quidditch game, and was rather interested, if only it didn't cut into her sleeping time. Oh shit! Nat thought, I missed Digimon! And X-men Evolution! Damn it all! I need my goddamn TV! Nat was about to turn Fluffy around to go find Dumbledore and demand a TV, when Fluffy stopped walking at the door to Hagrid's hut. Just have to talk to him later, yo. Nat grumbled to herself, as she reached over and knocked on Hagrid's door.

Knock, Knock

After about five seconds Nat grew impatient and began knocking out a drumbeat on the heavy wooden door.

Knock, Knock

Knock

Knock, Knock

Knock, Knock, Knock

Knock, Knock

The door was suddenly yanked open by a rather annoyed (but still fairly good natured) Hagrid. "Wha' is all thi' knockin' abou'?" Hagrid demanded in his deep, booming voice. Nat blinked. "I was playing music! But that's not important! See Fluffy? Oh... wait... Fluffy? Where'd you go?" Nat glanced around for Fluffy, who was crawling around to the back of Hagrid's hut. "Silly Fluffy!" Nat scolded as she motioned for Hagrid to follow her as she skipped around the corner of his hut. Just as Nat rounded the corner a high-pitched whine was heard then cut off abruptly as the sound of Fluffy's powerful jaws snapped together.
"Fluffy?" Nat asked, peering around the corner, "What did you eat?" Fluffy just looked docilely up at Nat, his small beady eyes as innocent as a crocodile's could possibly be. "Guess it was nothing." Nat said, as she picked up Fluffy's chain and turned to face Hagrid. "Anyhow, Mr. Man, this is Fluffy, and Dumbledore said I couldn't keep him in the castle thingy because a lot of people would be scared... But I love Fluffy SO much! And if I don't keep him then he's going to be put to sleep!" Nat made tears well up in her eyes before continuing. "So please Mr. Man, take care of Fluffy for me even though he's not magical?" Hagrid studied Nat for a long moment, before saying. "Arrigh' but yah' need tah' be lookin' affer' 'im, I'll keep 'im 'ere, but I ain't takin' responsibility. Yah' 'ear?" Nat nodded until she thought her head would fall off, and smiled her biggest and brightest smile at Hagrid. "Thankies!" Nat said, hopping from one foot to the other. "Now I can go watch the Quidditch game!" Hagrid put a large hand on her shoulder to stop her. "Now wai' I'm not even sure I know who yah' are! What's yer' name? I dun' think I seen you 'afore."
Nat bit her lip, Hagrid obviously wouldn't recognize her after her makeover, she looked completely different, not to mention Hagrid seemed rather slow anyhow. "I'm uh... Natsume. Yo? Look, I really gotta go, ja ne!" Nat said, taking off at top speed for the castle, leaving Hagrid staring dumbly after her.

Note: I KNOW! I KNOW! I said Nat was going to watch a Quidditch game this chapter, well I LIED! Haha! I was going to add it after that part up there *points up*, but then it would be a long chapter, and I don't do long chapters since if you do a bunch of short chapters you get more reviews! Yeah! hehe ^_~
Anyhow, Nat will watch Quidditch next chapter, I just needed her to make Draco believe some shit and get rid of Fluffy for a bit. And I AM working on Survivor II. I've got things planned out, just need to get it typed up. Expect the next chapter of Natty Sue and Survivor II out in the next two weeks (after my mid-term final shit thingies). Okay? OKAY!

Everyone who says I'm like them - Nat is only my online personality... sorry... hehe. In real life, I'm the kind of kid that people make examples out of and my friends are always complaining that their parents are telling them to act more like me. ROFLMAO!

Talia - LOL, wish I'd have been there to hear that! "...and be ready to expect love to come in the form of--" "A CROCKIDILE!?!?!?!"

Amy DaFrEaK - Eh, she was cuter w/blonde hair, but I want to dye my hair black... I had to settle for brownishy-red because my mum is mean, but I want black hair, so if I can't have it, Nat can! hehe ^_~

Everyone else - I didn't forget you! I just don't have anything to say to you! lol... No really, thank you all for your reviews!!! *hugs*
