She gathered up all her books and supplies and headed up to the potions dungeon. She wondered who the teacher was. Amy and Elyssa gave a little wave to Edgar making sure no Slytherin saw them, and he gave a little wave back. Finally a young male teacher with very dark skin and long black hair came to the door and told them to come in. All the students came in and sat down. The teacher walked to the front of the classroom and started talking," Hello and welcome to your first potions class of this year. My name is Allen Thomas but you are only allowed to call me Professor Thomas."
Elyssa whispered very quietly so no one could hear her," I heard all the potion masters who have been here hate Gryffindor so I think we'll be all right"
" Today we will be making a simple potion. We will make a potion that cures rashes. I will need you all to group up into pairs."
Everybody was moving around the room. Amy scooted over to Elyssa. " You will get the following ingredients: One unicorn hair strand, one cup of water, and a milliliter of asphodel. There is only enough for each team. If you lose any, it's not my problem." He walked around the classroom handing out the ingredients.
Later during class time Thomas walked by a first year Slytherin and nudged the cauldron with his foot and it fell over. "I'm sorry Miss Paloma, I guess you and Anna will just get a zero. You should be more careful," He said coldly.
Amy shot up from her chair and yelled out," HEY! THATS NOT FAIR! YOU PUSHED IT!"
She just realized what she had done. Professor Thomas slowly walked over to her. She could feel her heart beating faster, and finally he said quietly but cold," I think a detention will be in order for you." Amy sat down in her chair.
She folded her arms and put her head down. " What do you think you're doing Miss Potter"
" I'm not working. And I won't until you get rid of my detention!" She said tears rolling down her face.
She didn't know why she was crying. She was thinking it was probably because she had never gotten detention before and the look on Professor Thomas' face was frightening. He said," Blaming a teacher for spilling a student's potion, refusing to work, I think a few more detentions will do the trick. And Miss Granger..."
Amy stood up again," She didn't do anything! Don't do anything to her! If you're going to punish her, I'll take her place!"
" Sit down Potter! You cannot do that. You get your own punishments she gets her own."
" No!" She cried.
"Come with me miss! And you kids better not mess around while I'm gone." Elyssa started working on the potion again and so were the others.
He grabbed her arm and pulled her. His grip was tight and painful. Dean said in his usual cold voice," I think the headmaster should hear about this!" More tears were running down her face.
She had never gotten in this much trouble before and it was only her second day at Hogwarts. She got to a giant statue of a gargoyle. "Fullblood" He said and the gargoyle opened to a staircase.
They both went up it and went in a giant oval office and in a giant green chair she saw Malfoy. Dean whispered to him what she had done then left the room. He looked a bit shocked but he asked," You're in Slytherin, right?"
She nodded. " What your name?"
Her voice was crackly," Amy, Malfoy sir."
" I meant Full name."
" Amy Potter." His eyes grew colder than Thomas' were.
" Are you related to Harry Potter in any way?"
Amy was getting confused," Yes, he's my grandfather but what does that have to do wi..." Malfoy cut her off.
"I think you should get two weeks of detention."
"But what did I do!"
He said no more. He told her to hurry off. During the break between Potions, Amy wrote a message to her mum:
Dear Mum,
I hate it here. I was sorted into Slytherin
and got seperated from my friend, Edgar. My
Potions master gave me a week of detention for
no reason and then he sent me to the headmaster
who gave me another week of detention. I wish
I could be home with you right now.
Love,
Amy
She walked down to the owlry and sent it off with Celesta. The she got her stuff and headed off to transfiguration.
