Hello everyone, I know that this update is months overdue, but it's out finally.
Chapter 2
Percy stood by the window watching the clouds darken as though heralding unpleasantness.
As he sipped butterbeer in his now official quarters, the exclusive use bequeathed upon him by none other than Cornelius Fudge an owl swooped to peck incessantly at his window, demanding to be let in that very minute. Putting down his mug he opened the window to let in the owl, which stuck out it's leg. The parchment did not look official and did not bear the seal of the Ministry.
As he untied it and opened it, his face grew grim. Moving to his desk he picked up his quill and dipped it into the bottle of ink. Quill poised he started as thus:
Miss Hermione Granger,
Congratulations on you becoming Prefect of Gryffindor House. However I'm saddened to note that the post of such great responsibility has done nothing to make you aware of it. Suffice to say that if you intend on being a part of the delusional world of "Harry Potter" you are welcome to. But my brother Ronald is not going to be one among them.
The perfect example of the reason why Ronald must finally open his eyes to greater truth is you yourself. I have always admired your intelligence and felt that one day you would put it to superior use just like I have. But you have wasted it all away, by not only choosing to remain companions with the attention-seeking boy who has never really been able to come to terms with the fact that he's not the hero the entire wizarding world is awaiting, but you have also been blinded by the unreality of it all.
Your judgement is clouded, it's time you looked beyond the horizon into the distant future. You-Know-Who is past and can be gathered in what is termed as history. Dumbledore is no doubt a great member of the wizarding world but the fact cannot be denied that he is what can be termed as aging. His lucidity cannot be believed upon and followed blindly.
It's time that we choose to follow another leader, one who will no doubt lead us in the right direction and that man is none other than Cornelius Fudge. His visions for the future of the ministry are so wide and encompassing that it almost threatens to swallow all. Dumbledore's a man of the past, Cornelius Fudge is the future.
You too must separate yourself from the Potter boy if you are to rise up and embrace the new destiny of the wizarding world. The Ministry is in dire need of intelligent witches and wizards such as yourself, witches and wizards who have new horizons to scale and I say with great pride that Cornelius Fudge makes it all possible.
I implore you to not waste this golden opportunity that has been bestowed upon you as Prefect by swallowing the delusional lies of the Potter boy and giving in to childish sentiments.
Your's sincerely,
Percival Weasely.
(Undersecretary to the Minister )
He sealed the parchment and dispatched it at once through the owl.
As Hermione was doing her potions homework, she yawned. Just then there was the sound of an owl hooting and it was followed by a pecking noise at the window of the Gryffindor common room.
Moving towards the window, she unlatched it removing the pieceof parchment and scowling as she recognized the handwriting. When she finished reading it, she was furious and tore up the parchment into effective bits. Percy had been every bit as patronising, arrogant and egoistic as she had expected him to be. There was no getting through his thick skull.
So how was it? Please review and let me know. The reason I did not put up this sequel for so long was because I was not sure that the sequel would be as good as the first and I'm saying that the prequel was good only because my earlier reviewers said so, not because I'm blowing my own trumpet!
