Emily's view:
I was walking down Diagon Ally minding my own business when this really foul looking man bumped into me. He was a bit short, slightly plump, and had the oddest expression on his face. You know the expression you get when you've stolen something from you're sibling's room and they caught you walking out? That's what he looked like. Well I was already pissed off because I had gotten lost another job earlier that day. I was still mentally smacking myself on the head.
* ~What was I thinking? I finally got a good job and I completely blew it~ *
* Almost RAPED you! *
* ~ I should have just told the manager!* ~
Maybe I should explain. I have a hard time staying with jobs because I haven't found what I want to do yet. I was a waitress at a bar in London and I was getting paid pretty well for what I was doing. Last night though, this really creepy guy started coming on to me! I told him to leave me alone but did he listen… um no. So I started to walk off and he grabbed me. Well he started kissing me and touching me places I'd rather only have a boyfriend/husband (that I don't have by the way) should touch me. I was completely disgusted and could tell he had had way to much rum. Well as you probably know rum is a horrible drink that turns men into total dick heads. I tried to struggle away but he wouldn't leave me alone until ONE man out of like a full bar came and rescued me.
My rescuer was actually really gorgeous but I didn't have time to appreciate it. I ran out of there as fast as I could. I called in and told them I was quitting today. I was away from the messed up bar but then I was jobless. So there I was looking for a job feeling sorry for myself when this totally ugly jerk decided to bump into me. Wait, I'm being unfair. He isn't that ugly, and I didn't know if he was a jerk or not, but he still bumped into me! Well I was not in the mood.
"Will you please watch where you are going you stupid idiot!" I screamed in his face.
"Sorry," he muttered. He then started walking off saying something that sounded like, "Padfoot where the hell did you go?"
I shrugged my shoulders, at least he was gone! Maybe I should give you some explanation as to who I am. I'm Jennifer Emily Anne Williams. I am a witch and I graduated from Hogwarts (that's a school) two years ago. I live in an itsy bitsy tiny flat because it is all I can afford. I have straight hair that goes to my shoulders. It's all different colors, but it's like that naturally. It has some red, brown, and blonde in it. I have grey/blue eyes and a few freckles on fair skin. I stand five feet and three and a forth inches.
I have a fetish for shoes and animals. I'm not a vegetarian, but I can't stand to see animals be mistreated. That was the second thing that went wrong that morning. I was passing by Flourish and Blotts when I heard a whimper. I looked down the ally and I saw something that made me more upset than that ass attacking me last night.
Three men were standing over a poor defenseless puppy. It was a Chocolate Labrador Retriever puppy that looked no more than seven weeks old. They kept shooting sparks at his tail and in his face. It took me all of thirty seconds to stride over and start yelling my head off.
"What the hell do you think you're doing? Attacking an innocent animal! What did he do to you? What COULD he do to you?"
"You don't know what you're talking about, get out of the way. He's just getting what he deserves." One that looked to be the leader hissed, his long black hair falling into his eyes. He looked at me with the coldest eyes I had ever seen.
"Who
do you think you are? How could that animal 'deserve' that! It cant protect itself."
"You stupid bitch just get out
of the way!" He said and smacked me across the face. Well that pissed me off so
I punched him in the face like I had learned in self-defense at school.
"No one does that to Severus Snape and gets away with it." One of the bodyguard looking ones said. I was actually surprised that they talked at all.
"Want to bet?" I said. And with that I scooped up the puppy and ran out of the Ally.
Two hours later I was sitting outside the ice-cream parlor with my new puppy in my lap. Every once in a while I saw these three boys and a girl walk by calling out 'Padfoot!' Every time the puppy heard it he would perk up and put his paws on the table and start barking his little puppy bark. Because of his reaction that's what I named him. He liked ice-cream a lot he ate out of my spoon it was so cute. I took a lot of cute pictures of him to put in my house. Maybe I should be a photographer as my next profession? Whatever.
Sirius Black's point of view:
* How in gods name did I get myself into this mess? * I was just going to go meet up with my friends James, Remus, and Peter when I got ambushed by stupid Snape and his little friends. I say little referring to there tiny brains. In reality they are huge. Well anyway there I was transfigured into a Chocolate Labrador Retriever puppy. Atleast it wasn't like a poodle or anything, but a PUPPY? COME ON!
Well these stupid idiots were enjoying zapping me with sparks from there wands. It really hurt considering my puppy skin was still tender. Zap Zap Zap… God will they ever get sick of this? Probably not. I was getting really really mad and tired. So, out of instinct I started whimpering. Hopefully someone would hear me and come to my rescue. I was just getting sick of whimpering when I heard the click of high heals on stone. Some one was FINALLY coming to my rescue. It was a girl, she looked a bit familiar, but I couldn't remember where I'd seen her before. Anyway she was in a yelling match with Snape. It would have been really funny if I hadn't been a PUPPY. I mean I'm used to being a DOG, but a PUPPY? She seemed really pissed off, she said something and he smacked her across the face. In return he earned a punch in the nose. It was classic! This was definitely my kind of chick. One of the idiots (I didn't know they could talk) said "No one does that to Severus Snape and gets away with it." And you know what she said? "Want to bet?" then she picked me up and took off running. I don't know how she ran in those heels, they must have been four inches high. All I know is that I was glad to get way from those bastards.
I licked her face in thanks. She seemed to love that. She looked really lonely, but I couldn't see why. She was really pretty, and from what I could see she wasn't shy. She started talking to me.
"Hmm, what job do you think I should take next? Being a waitress was not my forte." Oh that's where I had seen her! She was the girl that guy was harassing at the bar. What a jerk, I wouldn't want to do a job like that either. " Maybe I could talk to Madam Malkin, see if I could get a job there for a while." She paused to think, "You wont like my flat. It's tiny! Only two rooms really, but it's all I can afford. You can stay in my room with me. Obviously you're magical so I'll get someone to look at you for me. Hmm, who who who… the pet shop? No no no, Hagrid? Maybe… I'll ask Dumbledore to do it. He owes me a favor anyway. Let's go get some ice cream."
All through the ice cream I heard my friends calling me. Every time they would call my name I would perk up and bark. But it didn't come out as my usual big-dog bark. It came out as a stupid wimpy puppy bark. She thought this was absolutely adorable. So she decided to call me Padfoot. Well at least I would respond! She pulled out a little box from her purse. Then she opened it and started pressing what looked like buttons. I thought it looked like a tellypone that I had seen at Peter's house, but it was different. I wanted to know what it was so I whimpered and pawed at it. She thought this was absolutely adorable, why? I have no clue. So she explained laughing,
"This is a cell-phone. It's how I communicate with my friends, they'll want to meet you!" She dialed a number and said into the cellypone, "Lily! Hey!" Pause "Yea I quit. Oh well I'll tell you about it later. Come meet me at Florean Fortescue's for some ice cream, I want to show you something." Pause " What do mean?" pause " I didn't know you were in London! I'll meet you at Starbucks!"(A/N I don't know if they have those in England, but they do in America and that's where I'm from so…) pause, "Okay ill be there in five mintues." She then proceeded to pick me up and we began walking. We walked out of Diagon Ally to this 'Starbucks' place. That's when it hit me. She must be muggle born! What if she doesn't live in Diagon Ally? All of my hopes of turning back to human would basically be dashed! Maybe Dumbledore will help me. At least I hope so.
