Snape sat at his desk and barked out orders. "Tonight you will prepare the ingredients for tomorrows lesson. You will find the things you need on each desk. I expect you all to get on silently. After an hour, as long as you have finished preparing the ingredients you can leave. Hopefully this will teach each of you to behave. Although with some of you..." He stared at Harry. ".....I think it will cause little difference. Now begin." He sat down at his desk and began to look over some notes. Hopefully the detention would pass by quickly. He would far rather be sat in his room plotting to take over Hogwarts, than supervising this detention. Still it was better than listening to the brats having fun.
Draco Malfoy sat kicking his feet under the desk. He was stuck in detention with Snape when he could have been doing far better things. His two side kicks Crabb and Goyle were also in detention. They were sat looking equally bored. How could Snape have put him in detention? Normally he looked out for those in his own house but not this time. No, Snape had been in a funny mood all week and no one knew why. He had even put that snotty little know it all Hermione Granger in detention. She was far quieter than normal but that was probably due to the fact that exams were coming up. Draco needed something to keep himself amused. He looked around the room for something to do. His gaze fell upon Neville Longbottom. Yes Neville would provide the entertainment for this detention.
Hermione was just as bored as Draco. There were far better things she could be doing, revising in the library, reading a book, solving some kind of mystery. But here she was sat in detention with Snape, mean and nasty Snape. How could he put her in detention, she had not done anything. She hated having to waste her evening preparing ingredients. Everyone knew that Hermione was the cleverest girl in her year but the only way she could stay in the top position was to revise. And this detention was cutting into her precious revision time. She looked up at the clock wishing for the hour to go by faster and then glanced towards Snape. He did look nice in his flowing black robes and with his evil glare perhaps the detention would not be too bad. She could always make up her revision time later on. Right now she would sit back and enjoy the detention.
Harry was most unhappy. Snape took every opportunity to get him into trouble and this detention was the icing on the cake. Right now Harry should have been at Quidditch practise. Snape knew that tonight was Gryffindor's practise. That was probably why he was here. The next Quidditch match was against Slytherin and Snape knew that Gryffindor, with Harry's help, would easily win. That would be why he had done it. Harry sat grumpily at his desk glaring at Snape. Snape glared back at him, there was no one at Hogwarts he hated more than Potter. If only Filch had been free tonight then he could have taken this rabble for detention. Snape leaned back, oh well only another fifty five minutes and thirty two seconds left.
Poor Neville Longbottom sat quivering in the corner. How could he have ended up in detention. Neville was a quiet boy who tried his hardest in potions. The only problem was Neville's best was everyone else worst. Snape had decided that giving Neville a detention might finally wake him up. The plan was doomed to failure. It was not Neville's fault he was bad, he tried he really did but nothing ever seemed to go right. Even this detention was going down the drain. He had ended up sat next to Draco Malfoy he was at this very moment flicking ink at him. Neville shuddered he could not wait for the detention to be over. Still there was one saving grace, the person he had had a crush on for ages was there.
Ron stared dreamily at Snape. A whole hours detention what could be better? At first he had been annoyed Snape had put him in detention. It was obvious he had only done it to annoy Harry. Snape often thought that by getting to Harry's friends he would also get to him. He was right, it did upset Harry when Snape picked on his friends. There again Harry was quite self absorbed and had not noticed that Ron had a new crush. But every cloud had a silver lining and at least now he got to spend an entire hour with him. Snape did not feel the same away. He glared at Ron, why was he staring in that way. It was slightly unnerving almost as bad as Miss Granger's quietness.Perhaps putting Weasley in detention had not been the best course of action. Now he was stuck with him and his incessant stare for the night. However Snape had bigger things to worry about than Weasley. Since he had received the poem he could think of little else. It was time to talk to the author again. He stood up ready to call their name out. "....
I promise to reveal who it is in the next chapter. Sorry it's not that good. Have lots of exams at the moment and am a little stressed.
