Not JKR. Sorry for the huge delay. I had writters block. The chapter won't be that funny but the next two are planned. I feel like I needed to get this chapter over and done with.
Chapter 9
Snape was grading his 7th year papers. The toll count for the moment was that 95 percent of his students would be ready for the NEWTS the other it would seems didn't know how to read. As he was ready to call the two Hufflepuffs the boy who lived to remind him he lost the love of his life to Potter entered accompanied by his favorite Slytherin and the loony Ravenclaw. Snape mumbled 'disgusting display of House Unity if you ask me' under his breath.
"Twenty points from both Gryffindor and Ravenclaw!" Snape bellowed at the sight of his students.
"But Professor, Nott is here with us." Luna whined her dreamy self forgotten.
"Mr. Nott has a good excuse for being out. Don't you Theodore?" Snape asked Nott giving him the 'better be believable look'.
"Well, umm, Professor. Malfoy freaked out and, umm, I helped them drag him here." Nott said this while his pores let out gallons of sweat. 'How is it that I can face Lucius Malfoy and still be scared of Snape?' Theo thought.
"Mr. Nott that is normal Mr. Malfoy is just different." As Snape said this Theo couldn't make up his mind on which Malfoy he was talking about.
"Well Professor what should we do about Malfoy?" Harry asked finding his voice.
"Well Potter maybe you should bring him in?" Snape replied his voice disgustingly sweet pointing a Draco.
Draco was curled up on the entrance floor his thumb on his mouth. Harry and Nott put him on one of the desks. Then everyone remained silent for a second not sure if the should disturb Draco from his sleep. Even Harry understood that this was to be a very hard time for him. Yet the silence was broken by none other than Luna.
"You do notice that he drooled all over his shirt." She pondered as if it was a Quibbler headline.
"Way to kill the silence, Loony." Theo sneered glaring at Luna.
"At least I am not a Death Eater in training." She retorted seeming normal.
"So the crazy witch has feelings after all!" Theo said in a mock surprised voice. "And here I thought you were too crazy to have feelings."
"Nott shut up!" Snape ordered as he took out a crystal flask. "Now please tell me the real reason why you four are here disturbing me, this late at night."
Harry taking the leader role started telling Snape about Hermione's disappearance and Luna filled him in on Ginny's change in attitude while Nott sat in a stool spinning in circles showing his boredom. When they finished their story Snape stood some minutes in silence. Then he accioed a book. The book hit Nott in the head as it flew in. After a few moments Snape spoke.
"Lovegood did you sneeze while you were making the potion?" Snape asked his voice clearly professional.
"Well Professor now that I think about it…I did." Luna replied her face covered by her signature dreamy look.
"Well it seems not only the rat hairs were the cause for a change in the potion." He stated. "To think I wrote to that stupid magazine telling them only experts are aloud to make that potion". Snape started mumbling to himself.
"Professor, what should we do about Malfoy?" Harry asked.
"Well Potter since all three of you were so keen on bringing him into my classroom you should give him this." Snape said as he handed Harry the crystal vial. Nott and Luna grabed Draco's head and as soon as the vial touched Draco's lips Harry felt the same tugging feeling he felt in the Quidditch World Cup. It was a portkey.
"Tonks do it quick!" Bill yelled as Ginny entered the room.
"Do what?" Anti Ginny asked.
"This!" Tonks said as she knocked Anti Ginny out with a large blue-silver book (AN you better know) over the head.
"Now what should we do?" Bill asked.
"We should floo, and go to Hogwarts." Hermione quickly replied. All three of them climbed in the fireplace took a handful of Floo powder and yelled "Hogwarts School Of Witchcraft and Wizardry'.
"You three went first?" Bill said grinning. "You needed a strong man to protect you."
As Hermione and Tonks left the fireplace both kicked Bill in the shin Hermione on the left and Tonks on the right. Bill almost dropped Ginny but ended up falling with Ginny landing on top of him. The whole room was filled with laughter.
Anti Ginny woke up.
