Disclaimer: I don't own cabbage. I don't own Peter (good, I don't know what I'd do if I did). I only own the idea of them dancing, and other strange things. Actually, Sergeant Mo came up with cabbage eating Peter, so there you have it!
Peter felt hopeless. (A/N: So what else is new? He IS hopeless.) It was only the ninth day of summer, and he'd ran out of things to do. He couldn't practice magic without breaking the "Decree of Something-or-Other", as he called it, and he wasn't much in the mood to be arrested. He had a strong feeling that his friends were ignoring him, unless they had Flooed or something while his Muggle parents had taken him camping for two days. He had no magical belongings except his wand, school books, cauldron, etc. And so, in conclusion: PETER WAS BORED.
But of course, being Peter, this boredom caused him to rummage in the fridge a lot. And that is how he came across his inspiration. That inspiration was (DUN DUN DUN) cabbage.
Yes, cabbage.
OK, you can quit gaping now.
Hellooooo....readers....
Right, well, anyway, you'd actually be surprised how many things one can do with a head of cabbage, especially if one has been hanging out with the Marauders for three years.
First, in order to preserve his entertainment, Peter vowed not to eat the cabbage until he had used it in all other ways possible. Then he had to think of what those might be. The first (and possibly most obvious one) was catch, but since no one else was around, Peter settled for playing cabbageball with his next-door neighbor's basketball hoop.
After picking up the cabbage from the ground multiple times (one of the advantages of a basketball is that it bounces), Peter decided to try something else. The result of that was a sore head from trying to bounce the cabbage on it. Then he had to rest a minute and think... and after a while, he had an idea. (A/N: Quick, get the newscasters and the photographers and the annoying dudes who ask too many questions! Peter had an idea!)
Soon Peter was waltzing around his front yard (literally) with the cabbage. His idea had been... well, see if you can guess. (;-/) But that was the second-to-last of his ideas. (A/N: Blame Peter's imagination, not mine! lol)
Slightly mournfully (the cabbage had been an exceptionally good dance partner in comparison to Peter himself), Peter sat down on his porch and commenced to eat his head of cabbage.
However, the cabbage apparently had other ideas. It sprang to life with an ear-splitting roar and attacked him, eventually eating him. And that is why, that day, when Peter's parents came home from work, they found a very satisfied-looking cabbage sitting on their front porch, but no Peter. YAY CABBAGE!
¤¤¤ Yeah, I'm bored again already. I used a lot of parentheses ( () ) (freaky) in this one, didn't I? Future notice: Trust me, I like Remus a lot better, but I wasn't sure just now what he might do when he's bored. If you review, I'd like you to vote whether he should start them passing notes in History of Magic, or find out how the others can become Animagi. Well, people seem to review more when I plead less, so I'll just say it once: Please review! ¤¤¤
