Usagi's POV
We're heading into dark, cold and rainy weather now must be that time of the year at Hogwarts. It's always dark by five o'clock and the halls have to be lit with extra torches so we can see what's going on in the corridor we're walking down- especially the dungeons. A lot of people were complaining it was to dark down there, and I am complaining that it is way too cold!
My classes are going pretty well, I think I'm improving! I was just a bit shocked when Takara mentioned the end of year exams for third years. I really hate exams! I was hopping that we didn't have to do them here, but that was a bit silly to think that wasn't it? Everywhere, any school you go to there will forever be exams.
I haven't seen too much of dad around lately. Sometimes I take food down to him in the forest, but that's not too often because I am usually being tailed by a teacher or some Slytherin prefect. I have noticed that Harry is also being followed around a lot by the head boy, and his never out of the company of Ron and Hermione as I am never without Takara and sometimes even Draco.
After the Sirius Black thing in the forest, Professor Snape asked to see us, and because we couldn't exactly explain why we were out in the forest in the middle of the night when a 'dangerous murder' was running around, we were handed out a detention each. Takara herself was very angry and took it upon herself to use violence against Malfoy…he has a black eye now…poor Malfoy.
One Saturday morning Takara woke me up pretty early for her qudditch practice. It was so early it was still dark outside, although it was always dark lately so it didn't really matter. "You want to practice?" I asked in disbelief, "In that weather?" Outside I could hear the wind howling and the rain slapping against our window.
"Gotta practice in all conditions, Usa. Qudditch is hardly ever called off, we play in all sorts of weather." She answered as she came out from the bathroom dressed in green robes.
"So they're going to make you play out there? In that!" I exclaimed in disbelief as another gush of wind hit our window, "Two minutes out there and you'll look like you have been swimming in the lake."
"Yeah, I know. But that's the game of qudditch."
We trooped down the stairs and into the common room. The Slytherin team was down there with Draco amongst them. To mine, and clearly Takara's surprise too none of the team were in their qudditch robes, but looking very snug in their pyjamas. "Ah, don't worry Turner;" the captain Flint said to Takara, "We're not playing Gryffindor this week. Got Malfoy here to thank for that"
"What do you mean we're not playing them? What did you fake this time baka?!" Takara said in frustration.
Malfoy moved his arm up so we could both see it, "You're still faking that?" I put in before Takara or anyone else could say anything.
"It's a great excuse to get out of playing this week you see, Black. Nothing wrong with it, beside you don't really want to play in this weather, do you Turner?" Flint asked her with a smirk.
"Doesn't matter what I want, dose it?" She mumbled with a glint of anger in her eye. She turned on her heel and stormed up back to our dormitory. Some of the team sniggered at her but Malfoy just wore a smirk of satisfaction. Sighing loudly I quickly climbed the stairs after her.
"There idiots, really they are. Don't know why Flint was cast captain…he dose a terrible job at it…and Malfoy!" Takara complained instantly when I walked into our dormitory, "The only reason he got put on the team was because his dad bought us all nimbus 2001. He has never won us a game against Gryffindor…we could do so much better with someone else-"
I threw myself on my bed, trying to block out my furious friends complaints but it proved harder to do than I thought. She only stopped when there was a tapping at our window, "What's that?" I said not looking up from my bed.
"Oh, it's a…owl? Hmm wonder what it wants, hasn't got a letter or anything, I'm going to let it in okay?" And before I could agree the owl had flown in and landed beside me with its leg extended towards me.
Back to normal POV
Usagi blinked at the owl with its leg extended out towards her. Did it want to deliver a letter for her or something? She looked over in Takara's direction while she closed the window and moved towards her and the owl. "What does it want?"
Usagi shook her head, "I dunno- hey, what's that it's got?" She said looking at its foot. "Looks like a leaf…"
She had been right in guessing it was a leaf. When she took it from the owl's clutches there were words carved into it that looked as though they had been done by a stick. 'I want to see Harry play'. "Uh…play what? Qudditch? Dose he even play?" I asked figuring out the meaning of the message.
"Yeah, course." Takara grinned, "He's the one that always beats Malfoy-baka in a game of qudditch…the seeker."
"When do they play then?" Usagi asked.
Takara shrugged, "I have no idea, and Flint was going to tell us today…but obviously not now eh?"
Usagi nodded with thought, "I really need to ask Harry about it. Where do ya reckon he's going to be?"
"In the nice warmth of his common room," Takara sneered with jealously.
Usagi nodded in agreement, "Yeah, that's where I'd be too. Okay, let's go and pay him a visit in his nice warm common room."
"What?" Takara said taken aback, "Are you crazy?! Slytherins, going into the Gryffindor common room?! That's unheard of Usa! Besides, you need a password to get in there just like you need one to get in here! How do you plan to get us in there?"
"Um…I'll figure it out when we get there ok. C'mon!" Usagi announced and opened the door to the dormitory.
Takara followed her muttering under her breath but as to what she was saying, Usagi was clueless. They spent a while climbing the stairs to the seventh floor where Gryffindor tower was located. All the way up Usagi wondered how the Gryffindors survived with all these stairs? Lucky for the Slytherins they didn't have to climb over 100 stairs to get to their common room after dinner. Finally they came to the landing where the Gryffindors lived. It didn't take the duo long before they found the portrait their friends would be sitting behind.
"Ahem" Usagi cleared her throat and a knight sitting beside a fat grey pony looked up them, "D'ya think I could just go in there and ask my friend something?"
The knight smiled at them as though enjoying himself, "No password, no entry."
"Aw…come on, please I'll just be a second!" Usagi begged, "I don't know the password!"
The man shook his head, "No! the only way I will let you in there is if you duel with me!" He cried dramatically.
"Fair enough," Usagi smiled, "Let me in and when I come out, I'll duel with you." She promised the knight.
"Only if you duel me first young missy!" The knight said smiling widely.
Usagi bit her lip and thought; she wasn't exactly planning on really duelling with this portrait… "Hmm…well, if you won't be letting me in first then you won't mind if I leave then?"
Usagi spun on her heel with Takara's wrist held tightly in her hand. Takara was staring at her in disbelief as though she was out of her mind. As they got further down the hall Usagi had a sinking feeling that the knight didn't care that she wasn't going to duel him, but them she stopped when his voice reached them, "Okay!" he yelled, "I'll let you pass then you have to duel me!"
Usagi spun again on her heel and smiled happily. The portrait opened revealing a hole in the wall big enough for them to walk through. Takara stopped centimetres from entering it and stared in with disgust. "Usagi…we can't! Call them out or something!"
"Oh, 'Kara, if you don't want to go in it's fine. I can do it myself." Usagi said getting a little fed up with the Slytherin and Gryffindor rivalry in this school.
Takara shook her head and followed Usagi advance into the common room. They hovered in the entrance archway for a few moments where Usagi peeked her head around the corner to check out what was happening in the common room. Not too many people were in there, but Harry, Ron and Hermione were ones of the few in there.
Usagi nodded to Takara to indicate it was ok before crouching down on all fours. Takara couldn't help but smirk at her friend as Usagi slowly began to crawl across the floor towards the trio in hopes of not being noticed. Apart from Harry, Ron and Hermione, Fred, George, Percy and a few other younger Gryffindors were also in the common room. She scrambled across the room as fast as she could and hid under a table in front of the Gryffindor trio. "Harry," Usagi whispered but obviously not loud enough for them to hear, "Harry!" she repeated but still wasn't loud enough to be heard.
She looked over at Takara for advice, but all Takara did was punch the air with a smirk. Turning away from her Usagi shook her head in annoyance. She tried a few more times, calling Harry but still no success came. In the end she ended up pinching his leg, making him jump up and hit the table.
"Usagi!!" He hissed, looking under the table suddenly, gaining the attention of Ron and Hermione who also looked under the table in alarm, "What was that for?! What are you doing in here? How-?"
"Shh!" She muttered suddenly, "It was to get your attention ok, so calm down. I need to ask you, when is your next qudditch match?" To Usagi, a picture with three people talking to the floor under a table looked very suspious in her books, and probably in others too, so she had to get straight down to the point and get out of there as fast as she could without being caught.
"You came all the way up here just to ask me that?" He asked in disbelief when she nodded he went on, "Couldn't you just do it at lunch or something?"
Usagi thought about it for a few moments, "I could have, but I need the answer now."
Harry, Ron and Hermione exchanged puzzled glances, "Next Saturday," Harry responded in a whisper.
*****
"Can't you tell him it's too wet to bring him up to watch the game?" Takara whined a week later casting a look outside their window.
The week had pasted quickly and Usagi had told Sirius when Harry's next match was and had organised them to go and watch Harry play. When she had left the Gryffindor common room that day, she quickly ran down the stairs away from the knight that was yelling after them for his duel. The weather outside was absolutely pouring with rain and there was a very small thunder storm pretty far away from Hogwarts. "He's not going to let a little rain get in the way of this," Usagi answered with a sigh once she had put on extra cloths for warmth and the Slytherin scarf.
"A little yeah…maybe your right…but this isn't a little rain Usa! This is a lot of rain!" Takara shot back then smirked "Gotta feel sorry for those Gryffindors that have to play…and Hufflepuff…I think I'll thank Malfoy when we get down there."
