Hey, hey, hey everyone!! HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!!! Hope everyone had fun last night and you didn't get too drunk. Lol Thanks a ton to all reviewers!! I couldn't believe I had 40! This is so cool! I will give you guys credit at the end because I find it annoying when authors put a long line of reviewers on their story. It takes away from the story. So let's get on with this story!!
Disclaimer- It's a new year and I still don't own HP or Clue, or Chicago, or anything else EXCEPT for a few characters and the plot.
Chapter 7 I Want to Go Home
Harry's POV
I woke up this gloomy Sunday morning to a knock on my door. This, of course, is a better way to wake up then yesterdays. The clock on my wall told me that it was 6:45. I got up slowly to see who it was. I was surprised to Wadsworth waiting for me. He had a very stern look on his face. Very Snapeish. Even Wadsworth looked like he hadn't taken a bath in ages. It must be the new style to look like a slime ball in 1920.
"Hello Wadsworth. Umm, not to be rude, but why are you waking me up so early? It's only 6:45. Most people like to sleep in on the weekend, myself included." I said with a disgruntled look on my face. Apparently, Wadsworth was not amused by my small joke. Another Snapeish thing.
"Yes well, this is a little more important than sleep. Please come and wait in this hallway. We have something to show you." He said turning around and leaving for Plum's room, which was next to mine. I shrugged my shoulders and went to join the ladies and Green out in hall. Their faces held the same clueless look as mine did. We didn't talk, just muttered our hellos. Plum soon came looking like he just came out of a hurricane. His hair was messed up and his shirt was backwards. Maybe Scarlet was in there earlier. I didn't mind then snogging the crap out of each other; it just came as quite a shock. (Scarlet wasn't really in there. I'm just joking.)
Wadsworth motioned for us to follow, and we did. None of us said anything because we were about ready to fall asleep again. The whole cop thing made us stay up late. Now Wadsworth wanted us to get up early. If he wanted breakfast, he must not know that he has two hands. He can make it himself. However, he didn't lead us to the kitchen. He led us into the lounge. It hadn't become much of a shock by now, but it was still disturbing. Jen was lying on the floor dead. Next to her was the lead pipe. It figures. How blind were these people? I would've just let us go when Martin was found dead. Mr. Body must have been the dumb one in his family.
"As you can see, we have another person to add to our happy collection of corpses in the study. Sadly, you were all asleep so once again we are left with no clues. This, however, isn't all." Said Wadsworth as he made towards the door. We looked at one another before following him out. Who else was in the house? I didn't think Mr. Body was dead yet. His death will probably be coming soon. Wadsworth led us to the library. Near the telephone, was the cop. To no one's surprise, he was dead. A rope was tangled around his neck. On his right cheek, was a mark. It looked like lipstick. I wasn't sure being that I don't use lipstick. It does look like the stains I get when Ginny kisses me after she puts on lipstick. Unlike lip-gloss, lipstick doesn't taste good at all.
"This makes four murders this weekend alone. It's too much! These people were innocent just like me!" yelled Wadsworth. This guy needs anger management. Besides, I don't think these people were innocent. They did rat us out in the end. They had it coming.
"Innocent my ass!" yelled back Scarlet. "They're the reason that we're all stuck here in hell hall. I think everyone agrees with me when I say that they had it coming!" There were several 'yeahs' and nods in agreement from everyone. Only Green didn't say anything. He looked like he was in deep thought.
"If it weren't for these people, I wouldn't be giving up my column and money to you and your friend." Said Peacock coldly. Wadsworth began to back out of the room after this. I noticed that everyone was glaring hard at Wadsworth. His face paled as he turned and ran out. White was rubbing her head, and Scarlet stared hard at the cop. Plum and Peacock were talking about something, but I wasn't listening. Green finally spoke up at last.
"God, this is such a cheery game. Next time anyone ever asks me to play Clue, I'll slap them in the face." He said as he began his classic pacing.
"Should've known that the Golden Trio would get us into this." muttered Plum under his breath. Well, his bad boy thing is coming back. This could be good because it means that we're close to the end. We all turned to face Scarlet, who broke out of her stare.
"Hey! Don't blame me for this! It's not completely my fault. You guys all agreed to play. You could've just said no." she said as her cheeks became red with anger.
"Remind me never to play a game with you guys again. If you ever play that muggle game Operation, count me out." Said Plum sarcastically. Yep, this was going to make Scarlet furious.
"You also agreed to play, Plum! Since we're not even friends, it should've been easy just to say no! God, you are such a bastard!" she yelled as she stood up and walked out. I guess last nights snog was just a one -night stand without the actual sex. Too bad. They look really good together if they just weren't so stubborn. We sat there in silence before White got up and mumbled something about a bath. Peacock nodded in agreement and followed her.
"I'm going back to bed. Wake me when we're back to Hogwarts and in my bed." Said Green sleepily. Plum and I followed even though I was hungry. I think I'll wait until Scarlet is in a better mood to cook. On our way up, Wadsworth reappeared and told Green about his meeting. Green cursed under his breath and slowly trudged back to bed.
Ali's POV
After hearing when my meeting was, I went back to my room. My bed looked very inviting so I ran and leaped onto it. I fell asleep immediately.
I was awakened by the sweet sunlight coming into my room. The rain had finally gone for a while letting the glorious sunshine fill my room with warmth and comfort. I glanced at the clock and saw that it was now half past nine. My stomach was rumbling and my body was sore from sleeping wrong. I finally decided to get my lazy bum out of bed, and head down to the kitchen. I thought someone might be up, but they weren't. The house was silent and gave me a sense of someone else being there. Luckily, there wasn't. I made my way to the kitchen and looked for something to eat. I saw that there were enough items to make some pancakes. This was one of the only things I could make apart from salads. I set to work making the batter. Minutes later, another person walked into the room. It was Mustard.
"Hey White. Are you making breakfast? I'm soooooo hungry!" he said as he walked over to me.
"Yep. Want to help? You said yesterday that you could cook bacon or eggs or something. I really don't want to do this alone." I said. Mustard nodded and went to get a pan and some eggs. We worked for a while before another person joined us. It was Peacock. She looked like she had just finished a bath. Ginny was almost never tired even though she liked to sleep in. She had to be the most hyper person that I knew.
"What are you guys making?" she asked.
"Eggs and pancakes. Want to help? We could always use an extra hand." Said Mustard smiling at Peacock. I bet they missed each other like crazy! I know I got a lot of huge cravings to creep into Green's room at night. It got veryyyyyyy tempting. She smiled back and went to help Mustard.
At last, breakfast was done. It must have smelled good because everyone else came down to eat. It looked like everyone had gone back to bed after our meeting. Scarlet looked a little more cheerful even though she didn't look at Plum. The conversation was boring. We didn't talk about much. Afterwards, we left one by one. I went upstairs to get ready for my meeting.
Hermione's POV
I can't believe him!!!!!! One minute we're getting along just greet, and then we're archenemies again! What is this?!?!?!? Ohh I don't care. If that's how he feels, then I'll just leave it at that. I will just act like it never happened. Who am I kidding??? That was the best kiss I've ever been in. Krum was a decent kisser, but Plum was just… oh God! I'm falling for him! Great! This means I have to join his little fan club. Ha! Yeah right! I won't!
After breakfast, I decided to check out the library. I may be acting like Scarlet, but I've been dying to really look at the library. I got to the library and opened the door. It then hit me of what was in here. The cop was still on the floor. I turned around right away. I was then knocked back from a powerful force. This was so not helping my headache.
"Ouch! What where you're going! I could've been killed." Said an all too familiar voice. My suspicions were right. It was Plum.
"Just shut up will you? This isn't helping." I said rolling my neck. How could he be like this? Maybe it was just lust.
"Yeah well just… ugggg! Why do you have to be so annoying?" he asked with a slight tone of anger.
"Me! What the hell did I do? All I did was bump into you. God, I hate to see what happens when someone slaps you." I said. The anger was now rising in my voice.
"You should know! You did slap me in third year! Right in front of everyone too! Do you have any idea how embarrassing that is?" he yelled. The whole mansion was probably listening now.
"You know you should learn to put the past behind you. That was 4 freakin years ago!!! I didn't even remember that! Do you have like a tally or a scoreboard on our greatest moments and worst moments? If you do, did you remember to put that time that Moody turned you into a ferret? I remember that quite well. The amazing bouncing ferret!!" I yelled back. This was just stupid.
"Yeah that's it Scarlet. That's what I do with my free time. Right now you're up by two points, but I guarantee that it won't be like this for long!" He bellowed as he stormed off. I went in the opposite direction. I decided to join Mustard and Peacock in the billiard room. Green and White had gone up to get ready. I had my meeting last. It would be held in the conservatory. As I got to the billiard room, I saw Mustard coming out.
"Hey Mustard! Want to play pool or something?" I asked trying to keep my mind off of Plum. I didn't let it show, but he had hurt me really bad.
"No can do. Wadsworth just went into there to get a drink. I don't know about you but I don't want to be around him any more than I have to be." Said Mustard as he smiled.
"Where's Peacock? I haven't seen her since breakfast." I asked trying to up the conversation.
"I think she went to do something. C'mon, let's go find the others. Maybe they're doing some thing cool." He said taking my hand and leading me upstairs.
Mystery POV (Get ready cause here it comes!!)
The murderer came back down the stairs after Mustard and Scarlet had gone up. It was their turn for murder. They didn't have their weapon having left it somewhere else. It had already been used. They did notice that the wrench had been left in the billiard room. 'Perfect,' they thought. 'My prey is already in there.' They smiled again just like they did when they first opened their rope.
The door to the billiard room was open all the way. Wadsworth had his back faced to the door. He didn't notice a person come in. He didn't realize that someone had picked up a deadly weapon. He didn't see a murderer come up behind him. Seconds later, he didn't know anything at all.
Meanwhile, another murderer had come downstairs. They already had their first kill, but they wanted this one too. This time, they had their original weapon. A shinny revolver was clenched in their fists. They separated from the small group that they were in. Mr. Body stood looking at a painting in the hall. The murderer was just about to pull the trigger when he turned around and began to walk away. A door upstairs opened. The murderer panicked and left their revolver laying on a small end table. They then walked up to rejoin their friends.
A/N: So here's the seventh chapter. Things are falling apart and more people are dying. What will happen? That's for me to know, and you to find out!! Please review!!!
Lots of Love,
