"What class do we have next?" Ursedonah asked as she and Kristie walked down the hall. As she passed, everyone stared and whispered.
"Hey Rhonda, how are things going thesedays?" a girl from Ravenclaw questioned in a friendly voice. She had dark curly hair that went down to her shoulders and wore glasses. She had a hair wrap her right side and looked happy. Ursedonah looked into her eyes. When she looked into someone's eyes, she could read their mind. However, this girl only thought one thing: 'non-shalont.' She couldn't even spell right when she thought.
"Freak." Ursedonah muttered. She turned her attention to another Ravenclaw girl. She had short light-brown hair and she too wore glasses. Becky was her name she discovered after a quick glance into her eyes. Unlike her empty headed friend (Allison as Becky called her) she had a lot on her mind and shockingly most of it had to do with Ursedonah. They rest was about Harry Potter. "Why don't you ask him out if you like him so much? You do know that he'll be dead soon if I have anything to do with it." Ursedonah whispered as she passed. Becky turned bright red.
"How did she know my name, and how did she know that I liked him?" Becky asked herself after Ursedonah walked away.
"She knows too much." Ursedonah whispered to Kristie in transfiguration.
"Who"
"That Ravenclaw girl, Becky."
"What are you going to do?" Kristie asked though she was afraid of the answer.
"I can think of four choices: One – we could kill her with Avada Kadavra, Two – we torture her into insanity; that's my favorite choice. Three – we set the basilisk on her, or four," she added in an undertone, "we use a stupid memory charm."
"I like the last one." Kristie said nervously. She had no idea when she met Ursedonah that she could be so cold. How could she possibly think that torture and murder were options?
"Fine." Ursedonah sighed with disappointment, "But if that doesn't work, we take the torture route."
Ursedonah never tried at Hogwarts. She never had to. While others wasted valuable time on schoolwork, Ursedonah could concentrate on other things. However, Kristie did have trouble.
"Here," Ursedonah said as she transfigured Kristie's owl into a goblet.
"Great job, but it was supposed to become a vase," said McGonagall.
"Oops," Kristie responded, "I thought that you said goblet."
"Why Rhonda, you did the same thing!"
"Sorry McGonagall," she responded, "Here, I'll change it now." With a lazy flick of her wand and a quiet incantation, she changed it.
"Hey could I get extra credit if I turned that thread into a giant snake?" she asked as she flicked her wand again.
"Ursedonah, show me that parsedltounge again," Kristie pleaded in a whisper.
"Fine," she responded and turned to the snake. "Thsssiiyah Hassy Heth!" she said but then turned it back into thread before it could follow her instructions.
"What did that mean?" Kristie asked curiously.
"It meant 'kill them all'," she responded.
"We have Divination next." Kristie groaned as they walked down the hall.
"Oh, Joy!" responded Ursedonah with sarcasm, "I would much rather read minds than tea leaves." She added seriously.
"What do you mean?" Kristie asked with confused curiosity.
"You didn't know? I just look into your eyes, and I know exactly what you're thinking. I'll show you if you want. Just think something extremely random." She stared into her eyes, and saw deep into her mind, "You're thinking 'a purple elephant would make a good pet, but I prefer fire although the cheese doesn't burn as well as leaves'." Ursedonah said with a look of mixed confusion and amusement.
"Whoa. That's awesome!"
"Yeah, I know I am," she responded egotistically.
"Whatever" Kristie said in a tone that clearly said, "Get over yourself!"
