Note: I study British English but due to my watching of too much good
American television drama, I may have picked up some American Slang. So I
apologized. Good shows: Smallville, Charmed etc. And I hope you like it,
even if you don't...I don't know what to say.
Here's a stupid wisdom of the day: When someone annoys you, it takes 42
muscles to frown, but it only takes 4 muscles to extend your arm and whack
them in the head.
No offense taken please. Standard disclaimers apply.
Ada
"Miss Law, please proceed to the great hall where you would be introduced." Professor Veasey interrupted my conversation with Lily.
"Yes, Professor." I replied tiredly.
"Well, I can bring you to the hall. I am a prefect." Lily said excitedly.
"Sure." Giving my best smile as I just made a friend in this lousy school.
The headmaster clapped his hands.
"Hail! We have a new student who has just transferred from the Asian School of Wizardry. Her name is Ada Law Rui En. Let's welcome her." Everyone politely clapped.
"Let's bring on the sorting hat."
The sorting hat was brought up and sang a song, which couldn't register into my mind.
"Griffindor!" was the last thing I heard when I came down from the stage to thunderous applause from the Griffindor table.
Lily grinned so widely. I smiled tightly. Then I spotted James looking at Lily intently. He likes her, I thought with realization. But it was acceptable as James was cute, Lily was beautiful. They make such a great couple together. However, during Potions, they seemed to hate each other very much.
James pulled me aside after the ceremony ended.
"Ada, would you like to join us to prank on Snivellus?"
"Who?" I was confused. Who would give their son or daughter such an ugly name?
"It's Snape?"
"The one that looked like Veasey?"
"Yes, yes. "He muttered. "Want to do it? I heard you are a whiz at Charms! "
Slitting my eyes, I narrowed my gaze at him.
"I have only been here for a day. How did you know? Speak!"
"Well, I charmed the hell out of Professor McGonagall."
"Sure." I agreed immediately.
And before James could react, I hexed a wart-growing charm on him.
I heard his groans and screams. I laughed inside. Turning around, I saw Lily giving James a disapproval look.
"Potter, what did you do with Snape now?" Lily demanded an answer out of James.
"Well, Evans. You look really pretty when you are angry. Even so, do I owe you an answer?" James argued back.
Wow, they really make a furious pair.
I joined back the table where I sat next to Sirius, Peter and Remus.
Remus seemed a little redrawn. Tired even. Why? Shrugging, I went back to my lunch. The ceremony was held during lunch and it took quite a bit of my eating time.
"Ada, how are you? Where are you from? Want to be friends?" Sirius asked.
"Do I owe you a reply? Anyway, shouldn't you stop them?" I gestured towards Lily and James.
"Pr.. James? He will do fine without me. Let's talk about you instead."
"Shut up!" Irritated by Sirius repeated flirtation, I stormed out of the hall leaving my half-eaten lunch behind.
James
When Ada stormed out of the hall, Lily and I stopped our fight. Lily seemed genuinely shocked and rushed out after her.
Professor McGonagall approached me.
"Mr. Potter, please do not do this again. Go to Filch for your two days detention. Miss Evans had reported this matter and Mr. Snape is sent to the Hospital Ward. Furthermore, by engaging in a quarrel with Miss Evans, you have proven your guilt. Please kindly do not do this again. No points will be taken."
I groaned inwardly. Two whole nights of detention for something I did not do. Stupid telltale Evans. When did I ever think she was hot? I should have never quarreled with her and bring attention to myself. I must take revenge on the little fiery redhead. I swore under my breath.
"No swearing allowed, Mr. Potter."
Oh God.
Giving my sweetest smile, "Sure, Professor McGonagall."
Then when she left, I hexed Lucius Malfoy also from Slytherin. Wart- growing again.
"Potter..." Professor McGonagall shouted.
"Professor, what happen? I really did not do that. Maybe Slytherin is more prone to wart growing." I defended myself.
"Potter, it must be you." Veasey shouted, totally losing control.
Professor Dumbledore's voice sounded, magnified a thousand times louder. "Lunch is over! Back to lessons."
Grinning towards Padfoot, Moony and Wormtail, we, the Marauders went to our next lesson, Herbology.
