Star-chan: HI!
Neko: RUN!
Star-chan: Very funny, hairball.
Neko: Huh?
Star-chan: 'Neko' is Japanese for cat, dummy. Here's the next chapter!
Neko: I repeat, this is not a drill. RUN!
DISCLAIMER: Star-chan: Nope. I don't own it.
Neko: Thank God.

With extreme caution, the trio approached their seats. After double, triple, and quadruple checks, they sighed and relaxed. No professor-yet. Harry also noted happily that Malfoy's face was one of suffering when he entered.
"What's wrong with the Slytherins?" Hermione asked, noting their bad moods.
"Who cares?!" Ron said, Harry nodding in agreement. Hermione sighed, and then tensed.
"He's here."
Professor Snape glided into the room like the overgrown bat he was often described as by many of the students. Harry gulped. He, Ron, and Hermione were usually high on Snape's "Who to Torture" list, and having them witness the one time he had acted almost childish was not going to help their rating.
*~*
Two hours later, some very horrified Gryffindors and smirking Slytherins left the dungeons. Even Hermione, who was rarely caught of guard by teachers, was very pale. Snape had taken so many points off Gryffindor, they may as well be negative points.
Ron snapped as they went down to lunch. "How could that bast-"
"*Ron*!" Hermione interrupted, spotting some first years nearby.
"-do that? I mean, Harry didn't throw any dragon heart at Malfoy. I didn't punch Goyle. That's favoritism, that slimy got!"
Harry kept walking silently as the two started another "Lover's quarrel". Smiling, he thought about how they react if he told them that thought.
'This will be challenging,' he thought as the trio sat for lunch.

Sarah looked up from her piles of work to see a pale Becca entering.
"What? You didn't just get up, did you?" she asked, not putting it past her old friend.
Becca snorted. "I'm insulted. No, I woke up three hours ago, for your information."
"You were still late," the brunette muttered, returning to her desk.
"Your desk is that messy already?" Becca gasped.
"I know exactly everything is, thank you very much."
"Sarah, I can't see the top of your desk. You've only had two classes!"
Sarah sighed. "Yes. Slytherin fifth years, then seventh years."
"Ouch." Becca winced visibly. "Time for lunch. Let's go!"
The Defense professor replied, "In a minute."
Becca smiled slyly, knowing her friend's weakness. "I think there's cheesecake."
Sarah's head snapped up. "WHAT?!"
*~*
"What class do we have this afternoon?" Ron asked through a mouthful of chicken.
Hermione surveyed her schedule. "Care of Magical Creatures. Oh, this year we have it with the Ravenclaws."
Ron choked and Harry looked like he'd entered a dream. "No more Slytherins?" Harry asked.
"Apparently not."
Ron looked like he was going to jump up and start dancing on the table. "This is perfect!"
*~*
"Hurry up! Gather 'round everyone!" Hagrid roared happily.
(Star-chan: I'm not putting in the accent stuff. Well, not most of it.
Neko: She's too lazy.)
"Got a great lesson fer you today," the half-giant continued.
"Look what happened last time he said that," Harry murmured.
Ignorant of Harry's comment, Hagrid lead the combined Ravenclaws and Gryffindors to the paddock.
Several people gapped with awe. Sleek, beautiful horses of every color of the rainbow grazed peacefully, angel-like wings protruding from their backs, ignoring the people completely.
"Pegasuses! Beautiful, aren't they?" Hagrid said proudly. "They're related to hippogriffs, but more trusting. Look in their eyes, and they'll know ever secret about you. If they don't like you, they'll make themselves clear."
"Hagrid, how did you catch these?" Hermione asked wondrously.
"Er, took a while, I'll tell you. Had to get a permit an' everything. It's illegal to catch them fer profit, because there's not many left."
*~*
Star-chan: I KNOW this is a horrible place to leave it, but I don't care.
Neko: So generous, isn't she?
Star-chan: Shut up. Evil Willow, I also hate math, science, and civics. And my English teacher.
Neko: I like her!
Star-chan: You would. Himidono, I'm so happy for you! Yep, lavender's okay, but I'm beginning to regert eating so much chocolate. *looks at the mountain of wrappers next to her* Oh, well. Remmy is invited too, right?
Neko: And me?
Star-chan: No. Go in my English teacher's head for a while.
