The New Girl
Chapter 3
"Now do you believe us Lily?"
"Ok, ok, you guys were right, she really is that bad."
They had just finished potions and were heading to Charms a couple floors up.
Lily was amazed on how mean the Professor could be.
First she had taken the attendance and when she had reached Lily name, she had said:
"Ahh, the new girl. I heard you're a real suck up Miss Evans. Well there will be no sucking up in this class."
Lily had almost protested against that comment but James had silenced her.
She was not a teacher to mess with, Lily found out when Peter had messed up on his potion.
Pages had came over and scolded him so coldly and then gave him a detention with her for being such an air head.
Lily couldn't believe Pages could be so mean.
But she soon found out there was only one more staff member as bad as Pages, Filch the caretacker, he was new this year.
Mr. Cranke had retired because of the Marauders; they had driven him over the edge.
But from what the Marauders told Lily, Filch was worse.
Him and his cat Mrs. Norris, who was the scariest looking cat you've ever seen, were always around whenever they thought you were up to something or he felt that it was getting to carefree around the school.
The Marauders were always causing him trouble, what with playing pranks and jokes on the Slytherins.
But besides Filch, Mrs. Norris and Pages, all the professors were nice.
Lily's favorite so far was Professor Encharta, the charms teacher.
When he had asked what she had learned so far, Lily had told him about everything except, conjuring, but James and Sirius didn't let her get away with that and told the charms professor about Lily conjuring the coffee for James earlier that morning.
The professor didn't believe the Marauders at first but when he asked Lily to prove it and was so socked when she did that he asked her to do it again.
Encharta was very please and gave her a book on other advanced charms.
Lily had walked out of that class smiling.
As they all headed down to Lunch, Lily was in the middle of talking with Emily when she bumped into someone.
Lily looked up and was about to apologize when she was pushed to the ground, and her books and some parchment went flying.
"Watch where you're going Mudblood!"
The person said in a very cold voice, and was about to walk away when-
"How about you watch your language, Malfoy, or do we need to fix your mouth for you?" Sirius said.
Malfoy turned around and Lily saw that he was one of the Slytherins from her Potions class.
He had really greasy blond hair and it was plastered to his head.
"Why don't you have a shower while you're at it." Added James glaring at Malfoy, as he bent down to help Lily up and pick up her books.
"Are you alright Lily?" Asked Emily when Lily stood up.
Lily nodded and looked over at James, Sirius, and now Remus (who had just arrived from Transfiguration, and Peter from DADA)
"James, Sirius, just let him go, it's just a waste of time, fighting with him wont do us any good."
Remus, then Sirius and finally James, turned and began to follow Lily when-
"What? Too afraid to face me mudblood?" Malfoy called out.
Lily shook with anger and spun around.
She muttered a spell and suddenly Malfoy started to cluck like a chicken and when he tried to talk, he only clucked.
Everyone in the corridor began to laugh.
"No one ever calls me a coward, oh and by the way, I agree with James, take a shower and do the whole world a favor."
Everyone laughed louder and Malfoy ran away still clucking.
"Wow great job Lily!" said Sirius, patting her on the back.
"Yeah! We'll make a Marauder out of you yet!" said James as they all laughed and continued into the great hall for lunch.
Okay there's chapter 3!! R&R!!
