Title: Gwendoylen's Year
Chapter 11: The New Minister of Magic is…
The next few weeks were horrible. Students were going home and it hadn't quit raining. However, this didn't stop Gwen and Harry. Today was the day before the Halloween Feast, and the Gryfinndor Quidditch Team was busy practicing for next month's match. Everyone was covered in mud, but they weren't letting up.
" Come on. Why can't we just quit for the day?" Fred called as he swung at the Bludger.
A stroke of lightening hit, so Gwen called them to land.
She was already angry and soaked to the bone, so her answer came out in a snappy tone. " Unless you want to lose to Slytherin, I think we should keep practicing."
" What good will it do if we all get pneumonia and end up in the hospital wing?" Angelina said wile sneezing.
" Fine. I give up. Don't come whining to me when we lose to the slimy gits." Gwen said.
They all headed to the locker room, while the twins put the Quidditch balls in the crate. When everyone was finished drying off, Gwen spoke.
" Sorry for snapping at you. It's just I have so much to worry about. Like who is going home and what is happening to my brother."
" That's okay. I guess we just forget about how you feel." Katie said.
" Yeah." Everyone agreed.
" Okay, let's go eat dinner."
They walked up to the castle in silence. When they got into the Great Hall, they saw that all of the Halloween decorations were up, and the students looked excited.
Harry and Gwen ran to where Hermione and Ron were.
" What's going on?" they asked in unison.
" Dumbeldore has something important to tell us." Hermione stated.
" Oh, well you could have told us." Harry said.
" Well, I didn't feel like walking out in the storm. Are you two insane?"
" No, we just needed the practice." Gwen snapped.
Hermione opened her mouth, but closed it. Dumbeldore rose.
" Good evening, students. Today, we will be having the Feast, because it will be one of the few times that you will see me." Everyone looked at him. " I must inform you of who the new Minister is, and tell you about the latest attack."
Everyone gasped.
" The latest attack happed at London. I know that the city is full of Muggles,
and at least two were killed."
" Oh, my." Hermione gasped.
" Now, on a better note, I will tell you who the new Minister is. As a few of you may have guessed, I will be the new Minister of Magic."
Everyone began clapping, except the Slytherins.
" Now, you must know that there are only 1000 students at Hogwarts. Most of the students are in either Slytherin or Gryfinndor. The first year in each House have stayed along with the exchange students, but most of the students who left are being sent to schools in America or Asia. So, let the Feast begin."
Soon the clanking of silverware filled the Hall.
" I should've known Dumbeldore would be Minister." Gwen said.
" Me, too." Hermione said in agreement.
" I wonder what they will do for Halloween tomorrow?" Harry asked.
" I don't know. Maybe we won't have to go to class." Gwen suggested.
" But we have transfiguration." Hermione said.
" Well, maybe we only have to go to our morning classes." Harry said thoughtfully.
" What wrong with you?" Gwen asked Ron.
" Nothing." he muttered.
" Oh, come on. What is with the silent treatment? I haven't done something, again, have I?" Gwen was getting tired of this.
" No."
" I'm going to my room. I want to talk to Oliver."
Gwen walked up to the Common Room, but stopped when she heard somebody talking.
" Come on, George, you have to tell her." said a voice.
Gwen could tell it was Fred, so she snuck up behind them.
" Tell whom what?" she asked.
A.N.- Sorry about such a short chapter. I hope that more of my readers will review. Thanks!
