Author's Note:I am so sorry I have not updated in...a while, but final exams are coming up so I have been very busy...um...studying and semester reviews and stuff like that. Also, it has been hard to put alot of detail and change my thoughts of what I want this chapter to be about into sentences...and words. So...yeah. As you can see, I have changed my story summary and parts of chapter one and I have changed chapter two. I totally messed up the ending. You will have to read the revised ending of chapter two so you won't be lost. So without further ado, Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince!
Chapter 3:
Owl Post
Harry woke up, got dress, battled with his hair and lost, and went down for breakfast. In the middle of breakfast seven barn owls came swooshing through the window all of them helping carry an irregular shaped package and five of the seven carrying letters. The letters were Ginny, Ron, Harry, Christi, and Hermione's booklists. Ron, Harry, Christi, and Hermione's letters were thicker than everybody else's. Harry looked at the irregular package and saw that it was for him. He opened a note attached to the package, it said:
Dear Mr. Potter,
Since Mrs. Umbridge is not a professor at Hogwarts anymore then you are therefore back on the Griffindor quidditch team. Also, I have finally got your Firebolt unlocked from those shackels Mrs. Umbridge put on it. I congratulate you on becoming the Griffindor quidditch captain, that is if you are willing to be the captain. Send a reply saying if you want to or not. You are the best for the part of Griffindor's quidditch captain so hopefully you will accept the job.
Yours sincerely,
Minerva McGonagall
Minerva McGonagall,
Deputy Headmistress
Harry quickly opened the package and there lay his Firebolt in the wrappings. Harry was overcome with joy. He lifted up his Firebolt and bent down to throw the wrappings away when he discovered, laying in the wrappings, the Griffindor quidditch captain badge. Harry gulped as Ron glanced at Harry and saw the badge. Harry knew Ron was already jealous of him for being famous and all, and this would make Ron more jealous of Harry for stealing Ron's dream of becoming the Griffindor quidditch team captain.
Christi looked up and congratulated Harry on being choosen for the Griffindor quidditch team captain. Mrs. Weasley and everyone else then noticed the badge and then Mrs. Weasley came up to Harry and started hugging and kissing him and congratulating him on becoming captain. Hermione got tensed up because she also knew about Ron's jealous and dream of becoming quidditch captain. Everyone else was surrounding Harry and congratulating and slapping him on the back. Out of all of the confusion, Ron had dissappeared into his room. Harry had also seen Christi go upstairs, following Ron. Harry was stuck in the kitchen for God knows how many hours.
As for Ron and Christi, they were both in Ron's room talking. Ron burst into his bedroom, not knowing he was followed, and jumped on his bed, thinking about Harry becoming Griffindor's quidditch captain. Then someone knocked on the door.
Ron yelled, "Leave me alone!"
"Are you sure?" Christi responded.
Ron recognized Christi's voice and said to come in.
"I thought you were someone else," Ron said.
"Well you were mistaken," Christi said. "What's wrong?"
"It's nothing," Ron answered, a little too hurriedly.
"It is about Harry becoming quidditch captain, isn't it?" (Christi)
"That obvious huh?" (Ron)
"Not really, I'm just smart." (Christi)
"Yeah, sure," Ron muttered.
"What did you say?" (Christi)
"Nothing." (Ron)
"Well, at least Harry didn't get Head Boy." (Christi)
"It's not like I got head boy." (Ron)
"How do you know that, when you didn't even look in your parcile?" Christi asked, grinning widely. Christi took out something from her pocket. It was a head boy badge. She handed it to Ron.
"How did you get it?" Ron asked bewildered.
"I saw it drop out of your parcile when you looked over Harry's shoulder. You left before anyone could even congratulate you or before you could even find out that you got made head boy. Well, congratulations!" Christi exclaimed. Ron was speechless.
Downstairs, a screamed was heard. Ron and Christi, sensing danger, ran downstairs. They found that Hermione was the one screaming and she was waving around a head girl badge. Ron, still holding his Head Boy badge, was found out for everyone to know that he was made head boy, thanks to Hermione. Mrs. Weasley was in the best mood she had ever been in in her whole entire life. She was so proud.
