Chapter 15: Detention
Disclaimer: Poor me. I don't own Harry Potter. Yet…
Rose returned that night for the detention Snape had given her. She brought gum, just incase she needed a distraction from her work.
"Before we begin, turn out your pockets." Snape said pointing his wand at Rose. Rose groaned and rolled her eyes in a disapproving manner then turned out all her pockets. Ten pieces of gum fell on the floor, along with her wand.
"Thought so." Snape snarled. He bent down and picked up all the gum and her wand. He threw out her gum and put her wand in a drawer in his desk. Snape then locked the drawer.
"What are you doing?" Rose shrieked.
"You will not be needing this tonight." Snape snapped. "Tonight you will be scrubbing all the cauldrons in this room." Rose looked out into the classroom. There had to be at least thirty cauldrons in the room. "Without magic, you will use these muggle cleaners." Snape pointed to a few muggle cleaners that were on a desk. "And don't even think about trying to get your wand. It is magically locked." Rose cursed under her breath. "I will return in two hours. You better be done." He left and Rose heard a click behind her signaling that he had magically locked the door behind her. 'Damn being under ground. There are no windows I can escape out of.'
Rose sighed and looked into one of the cauldrons. "Ugh disgusting." Rose said aloud when she looking inside. The cauldron was covered in icky green goop. Rose grabbed one of the scrubbers and some muggle cleaner and started cleaning. After cleaning at least ten Rose was quite tired. She had used two pints of a certain muggle cleaner and had used five scrubbers. Snape had left ten scrubbers and lots of muggle cleaners so Rose wouldn't stop and say that she couldn't finish because she didn't have enough supplies. Rose looked at her watch. It had only been an hour. Rose groaned and continued working.
Snape came back after the two hours were over and looked in every cauldron. Rose had just finished cleaning the last one in the way back. She had been wrong there were twenty-six.
"I told you to clean them all." Snape snarled.
"I did is there something wrong with your eyes?" Rose snapped back. The only explanation for someone acting this way was that they were pure evil.
"Show some respect Miss Lamya. You did not clean out that one." He pointed to something behind Rose. Rose turned and looked at what he was pointing to. It was the biggest sized cauldron you could buy. The one Snape used for demonstrations.
"But that one is huge and you can just use your wand to make it clean," Rose argued.
"I said all the cauldrons in this room Miss Lamya and you will not leave until they are all clean."
Rose grabbed a new scrubber and two more bottles of muggle cleaners and started cleaning cursing under her breath.
When Rose finished about half an hour later Snape walked over.
"I suppose that will do." He opened the drawer magically and made it fly into Rose's hand. "Now get out of my sight." Snape spat.
"Gladly," Rose muttered.
"What cruel and unusual task did he have you do for… nearly three hours?" Mary exclaimed when Rose came back cursing under her breath and muttered what an evil twisted person Snape was.
"He had me scrub all the cauldrons in the room including the huge one at the front of the classroom. WITHOUT MAGIC!" Rose answered.
"Sounds like Snape." Harry said. He was sitting in one of the chairs far away from the one Mary had been in.
"He still mad at you I see." Rose whispered to Mary.
"Yes," Mary answered. "Goodness, I keep wanting to say that what Snape did was against the Constitution. I'm never going to get used to living out of the United States."
Rose laughed. "Let me guess. You were good at history?"
"Hell no! I failed 6th grade history which was four years ago. After that I did get good at it but that's because my classes sucked so much it made me seem smart." Mary laughed.
Hope everyone had a happy New Years. I was debating on weather or not to write more to this chapter but it seemed to kind of end there. Anyway reviewers:
Misao, Demon Master: Oh ok cool. I'll have Mary be eating one. Oh and I think Ron and Hermione are perfect for each other too.
Arisa-san: Same here if I don't review on a story I am reading I feel bad. Yes I knew the perfect house thing was wrong. Again, Ron/Hermione are so perfect.
