Chapter Four

Pansy laughed mischieviously, still dangling the faded newspaper article in front of her face. "Really, Professor McGonagall, I don't think we should let a person like Ling Yu be attending Hogwarts. It would give us a bad name." she replied, starting to stroll up to Professor McGonagall. "I wouldn't be the only one at here giving this school a bad name, Parkinson. You better watch who your talking about." Ling Yu said hotly, standing up from her seat.

"Pansy," Professor McGonagall whispered, walking up close to her. "I really don't think you should be telling everyone personal information about Ling Yu. It isn't nice." Pansy frowned and turned to look at Ling Yu, shooting her a glare that showed she didn't care at all how nice it was. "I don't care, Professor. I'm scared that a person like her attends this school, and is in my house." she said a bit louder, getting the rest of the class' attention.

"She was expelled you know," Pansy informed everyone. "It says so right here in this little article." she began, pacing around the room. Ling Yu, on the other hand, just stood near her seat as if she wasn't even listening. "Do you all want to know why?" she asked the class, turning to give a smug smile at Malfoy. The students turned to watch Pansy, a few of which nodded their heads for her to continue. "Well.." Pansy started off, "it says here that she cursed a boy at her school so bad, that he's in a magical coma and can't get out of it." she replied matter-of-factly. "He's in St. Mungo's where the doctors are trying to figure out a way to cure him. What did he do to make you so mad, Ling Yu?" Pansy asked in a sarcastically caring tone.

Ling Yu looked up at Pansy with a warm smile, beginning to walk in her direction. "Well, Pansy, I'll be happy to inform you about what he did." she said sweetly. "Do you want me to tell you?" she asked, inclining her head a bit. "Oh yes, please!" giggled Pansy enthusiastically.

At the precise moment that Ling Yu opened her mouth to speak, her hand shot from her robes. Her hand clasped on fiercely to the collar of Pansy's robes as she started to drag her out of the classroom. Pansy let out a shrill screech; obviously shocked from being dragged out of the class. The students of the class also were in shock, for most of them had got out of their seats and were rushing out of the classroom to see what was going to happen. Ling Yu just smiled in a very friendly, yet evil sort of manner, bringing Pansy up close to her face.

"First of all, Parkinson, I haven't liked you from the moment I laid eyes on you." Ling Yu murmured sharply. "Secondly, I didn't appreciate you going through my personal belongings in hopes of finding a way to make me look bad. They would have found out anyway, trust me." she said, continuing to grasp onto Pansy so she couldn't escape. "And as for telling everyone about my little incident," Ling Yu whispered, suddenly hurling Pansy down the marble stairs ferociously. Pansy collapsed on the cold marble floor below the flight of stairs, laying in a twisted heap with her wand on the floor next to her hand.

The students gasped and backed away, noticing that Pansy was now on the sixth floor below. Ling Yu walked down to Pansy gingerly, placing her foot over the wand on the ground. "Maybe you'll remember it all in the hospital wing, because your obviously too unconcious to remember it now." sneered Ling Yu at the motionless girl in front of her. She smirked, and then stepped on her wand, causing it to break in half so it was no longer usable. "Maybe you'll think twice about trying to make me look bad." she scoffed at Pansy. After speaking to her new-found enemy she turned and looked up at everyone else who was watching. The rest of the students in her class all stood there; their eyes wide in fear. Draco had just walked out of the classroom and gasped only to find Pansy on the ground on the sixth floor. Ling Yu stared at him for a mere moment, before turning and walking down the rest of the marble stairs into the darkness until she was no longer able to be seen.
