Chapter 2: Friend or Foe
Potions...
Fred grimaced as he looked at Professor Snape. He had always disliked this class as much as he disliked behaving. And, that was alot.
But, today, it had gotten extremely bad. Snape was inspecting everyone's potions today, and Fred and George were in the middle of goofing off. Snapes inspections did not fit into the schedule of the twin's playtime.
As George threw a few paper wads in Angelina's hair, Fred snickered. He caught the attention of Maggie. She was still angry with them, and after two weeks, she had devised so many ways of revenge, she scared herself.
Fred noticed that she was acting very...happy today. Which was odd, becuase he had never even noticed the girl 'till now. And now that they had gotten her in trouble with the Head of the House, he was noticing how she smiled when Snape scolded them. She even snickered when he deducted points from Gryffindor. 'Does she know that it's her house too?' Fred asked himself, rolling his eyes.
All the while Professor Snape made his frightening appearance clear to the ones he was inspecting, Fred and George lazily added the ingriedients to their own concoction. Fred didn't really know what the class was brewing today. Luckily for him, it was George's turn to pay attention in class.
The boy watched his twin drop the last of the Dragon Scale to the yellowing liquid before it sizzled and boiled, making bubbles pop the substance everywhere. Fred let his chair down on all four legs and stood, backing away from the brew.
Snape, who had heard the disgusting simmering noise, immediately detatched himself from whoever he was hounding on, and ran over to the Weasley's cauldron. This, however, proved to be a bad idea. Just as he raised his wand to get rid of the substance, the potion blew up.
Yellow, sticky, liquid went in every direction. It globbed on the walls, ceiling, and every person around the couldron. But, most of it landed on Snape, oozing down his head and shoulders.
His eyes were closed, but everyone knew he'd be seeing red if they weren't. Fred and George attempted to run to the door, knowing they'd be in deep shit for this.
However, as soon as they lifted their feet off the ground, Snape raised his hand, stopping them mid-step.
Off in the front of the classroom, the only part that didn't get covered in yellow glop, a giggle sounded. George looked at Fred, and vice versa. Maggie was the one to blame for this.
Their stomachs, growling and very deprived of food, felt as if it had not been fed in years. Fred looked up the stairs and stopped dead in his tracks. George, who spotted his brothers sudden stop, turned to look the way he had his eyes turned. Standing with her bottom against the railing, Maggie was smiling down at them.
"What was it? Detention? More expulsions from Hogsmeade? Too bad Lee wasn't around so I could get him too." Her voice turned cold. Since when did she become such a...a..bitch? Fred gaped at her with his eyes narrowing slightly.
"What did you do?" Was all he could ask.
"Replaced Dragon scales with Crocodile toenails. Honestly, George, do you NOT look at what you're putting into your potion? It was almost too easy."
Both boys felt anger welling up inside them. This girl was good, but definately not as good as them. Two hours of detention with Snape was nothing for the twins.
Fred, on the verge of pushing the girl off the railing, sighed and shook his head. "Well, you got us. We'll never give you a heart attack again.." He said, sarcasm evident in every syllable he uttered.
Maggie narrowed her brown eyes, staring at the boys over her black framed glasses. But, instead of being angry, Fred felt sort of excited. She sure did have courage to stand up to them, and even think of a good way to get them back.
"Well," She started, shrugging her shoulders. "To make it up for you, I've brought you food."
The girl raised off the railing and turned to the portrait. "Snaggle-Tooth." She said, standing back as the door opened. "Apology accepted?" Maggie asked, staring at her feet with innocence. George grinned to his brother before leaning down to kiss her cheek. "You brought us food, so you're our best friend."
"Apology accepted." Fred said in return. Maggie watched with a smirk as both boys walked into the portrait hole. Little did they know that their feet had just tripped a wire that made two buckets of slug slime pour over their heads. They stood, dripping with the sticky substance as all of Gryffindor stood laughing at them. And from behind, Maggie pushed by them, smiling.
"Men: always blinded by their stomachs." She quipped before heading upstairs to her room. It had been a very good day!
