*** All Natural Angels ***
** Chapter three **
It is has been three weeks since school has started and three weeks since Leila's Howler and her mental breakdown. But so far every thing seems picture perfect. Well, that is if you only include what is happening outside.
"Jasmine! Come back here! I said! AGGRR!" Marisa screamed out of frustration. She stood up and chased Jasmine around the tree for her book bag. "JASMINE!" but the Californian girl just stuck her tongue out and continued to circle the tree.
Tess was laughing at them from her spot on one of the tree's braches and Leila sat at the base of the tree, watching Marisa chase the awfully fast Jasmine. She looked very amused. Marisa pulled out her wand but Leila scolded her. And then she ordered Jasmine to stop and give Marisa back her bag. Yup, it is just another normal day in the lives of Hogwarts students Marisa, Tess, Leila, and Jasmine.
And these four girls also followed in the footsteps of past 'gangs'. Just like the Marauders had Snape and the 'Golden Trio' had Draco Malfroy, these four gals have their own rivals too, the dumb blonde duo! Also known as Alexis and Alexandria. Ever since the three Gryffindors saw how those two bimbos treated Leila one day at Potion class they have been marked rivals every since, also they are the girls 'victims' in their infamous pranks. Ah, and life seemed balanced in a freaky kind of way.
Now they were sitting in the shade on a lovely Sunday afternoon. "We need a name." Stated Tess. Leila and Jasmine stooped their argument about weather or not a certain cloud looked like a hippo in a tutu or a water bottle in a fairy outfit and looked at Tess.
"What?" Marisa asked as she sat up straight and gave her friend a questionable look.
"We. Need. A. Name." Tess said this time more slowly.
"I know that! But why?" Marisa told her as she lay back down again.
"Well my uncle attended Hogwarts in the seventies and there was this popular group of Gryffindor guys that were two year older than him. They were smart and they played pranks. There were four of them and they called them selves The Marauders. Cool name huh? Well they even had nicknames that no one knew why they called them selves that.
"Prongs, Moony, Padfoot, and I think Wormtail were their nicknames. I don't know their real names but whatever. Point is that I think that if we are going too bet good grades and pull pranks we should have a title, you know like when the teacher would go 'Oh there goes :: enter name:: again.' Like that. Maybe even nicknames if you guys want."
Marisa thought for a bit, so did the other two. "That seems reasonable." Marisa said. "But what should we call our selves? And it better not be 'Marauders: new version' or 'The Female Marauders' cause those suck."
"Aww man! Those were my top two ideas!' cried Jasmine. She pouted but then came up with another name. "How about 'Marauders II'?"
Tess and Leila looked at Jasmine and said, "how bout no?" Jasmine shrugged and muttered something about it being a good name but oh well.
Marisa stretched her legs and yawned. "Lets call it a day and head back. We got that potion essay that is due tomorrow. And we will figure out a name later." Both Tess and Jasmine groaned in annoyance and Leila said something about it being finished. The girls stood up and head back to the castle only stopping once to say hi to Hagrid.
*~*~*~*
"Excuse me? Professor Snape?" Leila stood at the doorway of the dungeon where the Potion classes were held. It was near dinner but she had to ask the Head of Slytherin House something.
Snape looked up to see one of his brightest students, even though he doesn't like to admit it. "Yes, Miss Llave? If it is about getting your friends out of detention then forget about it." The potion master said coolly.
"That is not it, sir. Since you are the head of my house I was wondering if you can move me to a different dorm?" she asked politely. She couldn't stand sleeping in the same room with those idiots.
"Why?" He looked at her then back at the papers that he was correcting. He motions her to take a seat at one of the front row desk. Leila walked over there before see answered him.
"I can't stand my roommates. They are always throwing verbal assaults at me, sir." she calmly stated.
'No wonder, you mingle with Gryffindors.' Snape thought before Leila continued.
"They are always saying horrible things about my race and my family." The professor nodded.
"They are making fun of your family? And your race?"
"Yes, sir." Snape looked at Leila. Somehow he saw his youthful self in her. She was shunned by her own house, just like him. She excelled in her classes, especially potion, just like him. She also had to live up to her family's expectations, just like he had.
"I'll see what I can do, Miss Llave." He told her coolly. "I do believe that dinner is about to start soon." She nodded and left the cold dungeon. When she left he started to think. He sincerely hopes that Leila will not turn out just like him.
*~*~*~*
"Where's Marisa?" Leila asked the other two girls when she entered the Great Hall. She might not be allowed to sit in another house's table but every breakfast, lunch and dinner she would stop by to say hello before heading to her table.
"She is going to skip dinner, to finish the potion essay." Jasmine told her. She nodded. "Well, see you guys later! Kay?" she then left and sat at the Slytherin table. As she silently ate her dinner as Slytherin first year by the name of Chris came up to her.
"Um... Leila?" Chris sat down next to her. "I need help in Transfiguration... um, can you tutor me?" he kindly asked. Well not ALL of her housemates ignored her. In fact she has a couple of aquatinces in both first and second years. The only one who are mean to her are the really, really snotty rich ones who's families are widely known in Europe. Luckily Chris is one of the 'nice' ones.
You are probably wondering why are some of the Slytherin's nice? Well, every since the second downfall of the Dark Lord many pureblood children have realized how their parents are bringing them up and they want to change to stereotype image of purebloods. And the Slytherins, that Leila is friends with, are those types that want to change what's going on.
Leila tucked her hair behind her ears. "Sure, when and where?" Chris sat there for a second. "How bout the common room tomorrow night?"
"I think the library would be good. And if you need more time then the common room. "Leila suggested. "That will be great." He replied he then got up. "See you later."
"Bye, Chris."
"Are you going on a date?" Leila turned and to her relief it was another one of her other friends, Deborah. She seems to perky to be placed into Slytherin but she didn't want her family to disown her or anything so Deborah literally argued with the Sorting Hat to place her into this house. She was really nice, and it seemed like a break from the craziness of Tess, Marisa and Jasmine. She is like her best friend in Slytherin.
"No!" Leila exclaimed dropping her fork on her plate. "Chris asked me to tutor him in Transfiguration. That is all, Deborah."
But Deborah didn't back down on her idea. "Oh! What will you wear? I know! That gray skirt you have with a pink silk trimming and you can borrow my pink top! That will be a really cute outfit for you first date!" Deborah is like her fashion consultant and as Leila is too. Since her three best friends aren't really into fashion she always had Deborah to turn to in a fashion crisis.
"It. Is. Not. A. Date!" Leila said this time through her teeth. Her Korean/ Japanese/ French friend rolled her eyes. "Yes it is! Did you know? Chris has the hots for you!"
"What?" Leila looked at Deborah. "What are you talking about?"
"Did you wonder why Chris asked you instead of Danni to tutor him in that class? She is like the number one in our year and house in that Transfiguration! But he asked you instead! And when you two were paired up in Trans. class on Friday his ears slightly turned pink! Pink, Leila!"
"But why like someone like me?"
Deborah stared at Leila as if she was crazy. "Hello! You are smart, funny, nice, you can tell people off, i.e. Miss Ass and Miss Asshole." Those are Deborah and Leila's nicknames for Alexis and Alexandria. "You are witty, you can many instruments, pretty, well second to me that is, and you have a great fashion sense, well, second to me that is." Leila laughed at the last part.
Deborah continued. "He doesn't like you because you come from such an important family if that is what you are thinking." Chris comes from a respected Korean family and his father once tried to betrothed Chris to Leila when they were still in their mother's womb.
"I know... but still, you can't just say that he like me."
"Trust me, Leila. I know when someone likes someone."
*~*~*~*
"What's wrong?" Tess asked Leila at potion. Leila and Marisa are partners, so is Jasmine and Tess. "You look bummed. Did the snots from hell gave you a hard time in the House of Evil?"
"No. I'm just thinking." Leila replied as Marisa took her seat next to her.
"About what?' Jasmine asked. She glared the Alexis and Alexandria when the entered the cold classroom.
"What Deborah told me at dinner last night."
"What did she tell you?" The girls know Deborah, and they accept Leila having friends outside their little gang even though they don't make other friends like Leila does.
"She told me that this guy, first year, in our house like me."
"She must be true!" Tess exclaimed.
"Why?" The girls looked at Tess.
"I don't really know but she does have the vibe coming from her." They rolled their eyes just when Snape walked in.
"Today class, we will be making a simple sleeping potion, now can anyone tell me..."
*~*~*~*
"Miss Llave. Please stay after class."
Leila looked up from her cauldron. "Yes sir." Snape then looked inside the cauldron. "Good work, but I bet Miss Llave is doing all of it." And he walked away. Marisa stuck her tongue out as soon as he turned his back.
*~*~*~*
"You need to speak with me sir?"
Snape walked over to his desk and pulled out a piece of parchment. "This is your new room. Give it to one of the occupants that are all ready there."
"Thank you sir!" Leila took the note and placed it in her book bag. He gave her a very rare soft smile as she left to go to her next class.
"You are very welcome." He said after she had already left.
*~*~*~*
"So... Leila got a date... interesting..." Jasmine said as she sat on one of the couches.
Tess snickered. "She says it a 'study session...uh huh..." Marisa rolled her eyes and took a sip of water.
"Dudes, just leave it." She told Tess and Jasmine. "Besides we need to talk about tonight's prank."
Jasmine then stood up. "I say we turn her classroom into a jungle but instead of a green jungle it will be purple!"
"I like lavender..." Tess said in a small voice. Her eyes brighten. She loves the idea. "Ooo, I wanna see her face in the morning!" she squealed as she imagined all the possibilities. "I could see it now..."
"Hey, don't we have a detention tomorrow night?" Marisa asked. Jasmine nodded. "Yeah, remember, Marisa? Tomorrow's detention was for last Tuesday's... 'Adventure'."
Marisa thought for a minute so she could recall her memory. "Oh yeah, I remember..." her face broke into a smile. "That was fun, it was worth getting a detention..." she then remembered that Leila didn't get a detention like them. "Why didn't Leila get one?"
"Remember it was Snape that found us? Of course he would give a detention to someone in his house" Jasmine told Marisa as she pulled out a deck of cards. "Anyone up for a game of War?"
*~*~*~*
"How did that 'study session' go?" asked Deborah, Leila's new roommate. Leila set her books on her desk and gave her friend a dirty glare.
"It was fine, we have another one set on Sunday." She said in a natural tone. "But he did sometimes stutter..."
"See! See! He LIKES you! You!" Deborah squealed in delight "Ah, if only some guy liked me..."
"Deb! There are like many Slyhterin first year guys, and some second years, that like you!" stated Monica, the other roommate and friend of both Leila and Deborah. She is also like many of the new Slyhterin, going against their families.
"Yeah, but none have really catches my attention!"
Both of her roommates rolled their eyes. "Hey what time is it?" Leila asked as she put on one of her black hooded robes.
"Almost eleven. When you come back you better wake us up and tell us some of the details!" both Monica and Deborah exclaimed.
"Don't worry, don't worry. Well wish us luck! Bye!" and Leila left to go meet up with Jasmine, Tess and Marisa for another prank to pull... on Professor Weasley.
When she left Monica and Deborah talked. "They should have a name." Monica stated.
"Who?"
"Leila, Tess, Jasmine, and Marisa! They need some sort of title..."
"Oo! How bout 'Night Angles' or something along the line with angles!"
"I was thinking like 'The Erishkigals!"
"No, I like mines!"
"No, mine is better!"
"Lets let Leila decide when she get back."
"Deal"
And the two girls went to sleep. But somewhere else in the Hogwarts, four night prowlers roamed the grounds
*~*~*~*
A/N: Hi, well, what names do you like the best? Yes you guessed it. A POLL!
The Night Angels: it would be fitting considering the title of this story
The Athenas: after the name Athena, as in the Greek goddess of wisdom and warfare. This would work too because the girls want to be smart and pull the greatest pranks
The ERISHKIGALS: Means "lady of the great place" in Sumerian. This was the name of the violent Sumerian goddess of death and the underworld.
Or any or your ideas!
Well, also I think that I should mention Deborah and Monica. They will be
like the side characters that appear a lot, like Ginny or Oliver Wood.
They too are based on friends for mine. Well that is it for now! Review
and you get a basket of Rum and ten year-old bubble gum!
