Chapter 14: Evil Leprechaun Rebellions

AN: Sry, this chapter is rather short.

::::::::::::::::::::::::::::

The week seemed to fly by for poor Morwen. Between detention with Snape, avoiding her older brother, and disputing with Jimmi, there was little to no time to worry about other things. For instance, she had nearly forgotten that her History of Magic topics were due the next day.

She sat in the library, practically pulling out her hair, "Ergh!" she cried in frustration, chewing on the end of her quill, "What am I going to write about?"

Leda, who sat across from her shrugged, "Cauldrons?" she said, humor glinting in her eyes.

"Oh, hardy ha har." She deadpanned, she sighed and looked up, "What did you chose for your topic?"

"The evil leprechaun rebellions of Ireland," She stated simply, leafing through a book on vampire rebellions.

"Then aren't you reading the wrong book?" Morwen asked, curious.

"Nope." She said, engrossed in it.

Morwen shrugged and continued her brainstorming. Her face fell when after 15 minutes, no sudden brain jolts of inspiration hit her. "Gah! I simply don't know what to do." She said, frustrated.

Leda shrugged, "Why don't you go ask Professor Krum for some ideas, she's right over there."

Morwen turned around in her seat and noticed that the Charms professor was sitting in a corner, looking like she was grading essays. "Oh, er, alright." She said as she stood up and headed over to Mrs. Krum.

Krum looked up almost immediately when she heard Morwen approach, "Ah, Ms. Malfoy, what can I help you with?"

Morwen scratched the back of her neck, suddenly feeling uncomfortable. "I was, ah, um, wondering if you could help with some of my homework."

Krum smiled, "Oh, care to discuss your Switching Spells essay?"

"Actually, I was wondering if you had an idea I could use for a History of Magic report."

Krum mulled this for a moment, "What's the assignment over?"

"A historical event that changed the magical world," She said, suddenly feeling rather stupid.

The professor smiled, "Well, why don't you go for the obvious? Hardly anyone ever goes for the obvious, so it's unlikely that it was chosen."

"Like what?" Asked Morwen, interest perked.

"How about the defeat of You-Know-Who?" she questioned.

Morwen's face fell, she had been expecting her to say something exciting, "Oh, well no offense professor, but that's rather boring."

She let out a soft chuckle, "Ms. Malfoy, as you should know, there's two sides to every story." She rose her eyebrow at her, "The one everyone seems to know is the side that prominently deals with Harry Potter. But-" She said, letting the word hang in the air for a moment, "Certain key points are usually overlooked."

Morwen grinned, this was beginning to sound fun, "How would I find out key points though, professor?"

She smiled, "I would most likely be owling your father, Ms. Malfoy." She locked her gaze with Morwen's, "He has some information that had been overlooked."

Morwen tried to quell her curiosity, and said, "Thank you for your advice."

"No problem, Ms. Malfoy. Anything to assist a student."

Morwen nodded and turned away, thinking of all the possible angles she could get this story from.

Jimmi sighed and tried to focus on his Switching Spells essay, but he just couldn't seem to. Charms was his best class, and he already knew most of the ones they would cover in first year. He groaned and switched (haha! irony!) over to his hardest assignment, Potions.

He pulled out some parchment and a quill and opened his textbook. "Alrighty, the Pepper-Up potion." He flipped to the page, "This ought to be easy enough."

He looked at the page, all the ingredients and measurements could have been written in Babylonian for all he knew. "Er, newt eyes are cut into quarter pieces and then extract the juice-"He paused for a moment to hit his head on the table, "Er! I give up!"

It was then that Bert entered the room, "What's the matter Jimmi?" He asked politely.

"Potions." He grumbled, he then looked to see that Leif was nowhere to be found, "Where's your friend?"

Bert shrugged and sat down at the table across from Jimmi, "He's in the Medical Wing, something about his stomach hurting."

Jimmi's eyes widened slightly, "Terrence is in there too, same thing."

Bert arched his eyebrows, "Weird."

Jimmi nodded, "Ya." There was silence for a moment before Jimmi asked, "Um, hey Bert, would you mind helping me with my Potions?"

Bert nodded, "Alright, let's go ask Snape-"

"NO!" cried Jimmi, who then flushed a little, "It's a long story."

Bert shook his head, slightly confused, but proceeded to help Jimmi with his homework.

:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::

Told you it would be a short chapter! It's only 3 pages as opposed to the usual 7 - 10 pages, but the next chapter is going to be really long. I'm also working on the sequel already (Called Annoyed: Summer of the Siblings) even though its not even the halfway point yet for our characters. Anyways,

Next Up: Morwen begins writing her report, only to find that someone else is doing the same topic. Also, the stomach aches begin to show more than just stomach aches, will Leif and Terrence be alright? Who knows?!
