Disclaimer: I don't own Harry Potter. a yawn drifts over from Kochan's
bed I didn't drug any of them, either! That was Cassie! I made Jade,
Aiden, and any other elves, and loosely based Cassie the Ravenclaw Prefect
off my sister. Silver is Midnight Blue's, from Mirror of Maybe. Thank you
muchly, love you muchly.
Thanks to my beta, my muse, and my reviewers. I'd offer you all my cake from Flames, but I ate it already. I'm still fishing for elves, whole, half or even a smidgen of one. Please include in a review or email me at and I'll love you muchly. Even just names, that's the hardest part for me.
Thanks to my reviewers!

Magicsprite: Your random stupid thought is one I've been having for a while, actually, and I was wondering. Human, elf, or both? I both mean would obviously be one at home and one at school. What do you think? They'd show up third year. or possibly fourth.

Jen007: smiles Nothing helps Cassie. Trust me. I wrote her, ya know. I also live with the person Cassie is based off of.
This chapter is un-beta-ed, seeing as how my beta no be home and I is impatient. I will be posting beta-ed version soon!
Chapter 7
Harry silently followed Cassie down to the dungeons. He had borrowed a book from Draco and needed to return it. Seeing as how Cassie had friends in Slytherin, he had asked her if she could please ask one of them to return it to the first year. She had laughed and said that where her things would be safe, they hadn't established any form of companionship with Draco, and therefor, his things may not be. And thus, Harry was getting dragged down to the dungeons.
Cassie had been going on and on about some card game that was popular with the muggles she grew up with, it was called Magic: the Gathering. How it was played, how it connected with what magical theories actually existed, about how it lined up with some ancient battles she read about, and many other things. At the moment she was telling Harry, "Kazz and Zakk, the two wizards who supposedly battle over something, were, according to the story behind the game that nobody ever remembered, twin brother and sister. According to a little bit of research I've done, Kazz and Zakk were, in fact, twins, and yes, brother and sister, but that's where the similarities stopped. According to the books I've read, the two were actually quite close. The two of them dueled often, but they always ended with the two analyzing their tactics. And they never fought on opposite sides, supposedly because if you convinced Zakk to do something then Kazz would go along with it. As all twin brothers should. And if you could convince Kazz to help you, it wouldn't be till after he had spoken with his sister, unless it was something simple that anybody with magic could do. Often they would try to out-do the other at some simple task, right down to de-gnoming the garden, but it was always friendly, no matter what it looked like. Say, Harry, what was the book you borrowed about, anyway?"
"The Pros and Cons of: Using Eating Utensils in a Magical Duel" The two of them discussed the pros and cons, Harry using knowledge from the book and Cassie using experience in duels, both inserting some common sense here and there.
-----
When they got to the dungeons, Cassie looked around. Seeing nobody coming, she leaned into the portrait and whispered the password. the door opened and she 'play-sneaked' in. Harry just stood there while Cassie disappeared behind the door. When a hand reached out to beckon him in, it was an amused Harry Potter who followed.
When they got inside, they were met by an older girl with blond hair. She was fairly short for her age, just a tad shorter then Cassie, but still looked rather scary at the moment.
"What is he doing here?" the girl asked. "We let you come in, Cassie. We never extended the invitation to anybody else."
Unfortunately, Cassie wasn't listening. In fact, she wasn't even in the common room. /Great./ Harry thought. /all by myself in unfriendly territory./ "Umm, well, you see, I was borrowing this book from Draco and." Harry started to say, stumbling over his words slightly.
Luckily, Draco decided to make an appearance. "Hello Potter. What are you doing here?" Harry managed to say that he was returning the book fairly calmly.
"Well, I really should be going. Homework, yes, I have homework to do." Harry was getting nervous. He really didn't like the way this girl was looking at him.
"Oh, are you sure you don't want to stay? We could have so much fun."
"No, no I'm sure I have to go. All my stuff is in my dorm, you see."
"I'm sure we could summon it. What do you have to do, anyway?" the girl asked, still scaring Harry. He looked to Draco, in hopes that he might be some help, but no, the first year was leaning against the wall, holding his book and laughing silently.
"Potions" Harry replied, not thinking. /That was stupid./ Harry berated himself. /They're the Slytherins. They could probably help quite a bit, really. But/ Harry thought to himself, /they are creepy./ He thought he heard Draco laugh, no longer able to contain it.
Before the girl could reply, Cassie showed up, out of the girl's dorm room. "Ginger, stop picking on the first years."
Suddenly the scary girl turned to Cassie. "But it's so much fun!" she protested.
For a week or so, Ginger continues to torment poor Harry Potter. She'll do things like leave a book out when she visits Cassie, and then gets annoyed at Harry for trying to 'steal' it. On various occasions it has even resulted in Harry running away, and Ginger, who's incredibly bored, following. But now, let us time jump. looks at Cassie, who is doing the Time Warp No, Cassie, not Time Warp. Time jump. Cassie looks at Kochan, shrugs and starts Hamtaro dancing
"Hey, Potter!" Draco interupted Harry's conversation with one of his house mates.
"What is it, Malfoy? Can't you see I'm working on my Potions extra credit?"
"During dinner?"
"Well, yes. Sarah is busy later, and it's due next week," Harry was starting to get a tad annoyed at the Slytherin.
"Okay. Anyway, I was wondering if you wanted to work on that... project... after dinner" Draco asked, saying 'project' in a way that implyed something else entirely that would have made a normal 11 year old blush, and batted his eyes.
"Hm? Oh the... Project..." harry replied in the same-ish way. "of coarse!"
A/N: Ok, I is leaving it here. Next chapter: they encounter a problem, and Harry is a Ravenclaw, don't you forget it! Anywho. points. let me think. 2 points for recognizing the Time Warp, an additional 3 for being able to dance it. 2 points for recognizing Hamtaro, an additional 3 for knowing the dance and/or song. Oh, and please, reviews! Nice ones! No flames, unless it be cake. But only somebody from around here would know Flames. Its a great restaurant, with huge cakes, and they're so yummy! The only problem with flames is that their alfredo sauce is a bit thin. sighs
