Ok, here's the next chapter for whoever's interested. These notes are still from Harry's first year. I will let you know when the year changes. Right now, it's around October and November for all of these.
Notes
Chapter 2
(Note passed between George Weasley and Oliver Wood.)
Hey Ol
How many times have I told you not to call me that!
Not enough times, I guess.
What is it, Georgie?
Ok, ok! I won't call you Ol if you promise never to call me Georgie!
Alright. I promise.
Whew, thanks, Ol. You really know how to reassure a guy!
George Weasley, you promised!
No I didn't! You were the one that promised. Tough luck, Ol!
If we weren't in Potions, and in danger of detention with Snape, Weasley, I would hex your fat arse into a thousand pieces!
Well, aren't we touchy this morning!
Weasley! I wasn't joking, you know.
Alright! I was going to ask you something, but if you're not in the mood…
What is it, Weasley?
How do you think Potter did at practice yesterday?
Well, he certainly seems like a natural flier. I would say we have a much better chance at the cup this year. But, we really need to train hard, much harder than we have in the past, if we want to have a good chance.
Wood, you don't need to give me the pep talk, I know your speech by heart!
Very funny, George, but I'm serious about this.
Oh, so now I'm back to George. I guess you're not mad at me anymore?
Hardly. If you call me…that…one more time, I might make the team practice at dawn for the next month, but you never know.
It shall never happen again, oh dearest captain of mine.
That's much better. Let's hope it stays that way.
(Note passed between Lavender Brown and Parvati Patil.)
Parvati! Have you heard about what happened on Halloween?
What is there to hear?
Well, there's the whole story about the troll!
I know about the troll that was let in. We all heard, remember?
Yes, I remember. But did you hear about what happened to Hermione Granger?
What happened? Wasn't she with us when the troll came?
I heard she was in the girls' lavatory during dinner.
So? Didn't she come back and find out about it then?
No, she was in there the whole time.
Really? How come?
Well, she went in there earlier that day because she was upset about something Harry Potter and Ron Weasley had said.
What did they say?
I'm not sure, but it had something to do with her being a know-it-all with no friends.
I wonder why they said that, even if it's true.
Yeah. So she was in the lavatory, right? And so she didn't know about the troll.
What did she do?
I heard that the troll went into the same lavatory she was in!
While she was still there? How awful!
I know! I heard she screamed so loud it could have woken the dead!
I would have screamed louder. So, what happened then?
Well, someone said that Harry and Ron left the group when we were heading for the common room.
They left? Why did they do that?
They must have been feeling guilty about what they said and went to warn Hermione about the troll.
That was very brave of them, but also very stupid.
I know, that's what I thought.
So what did they do?
Well, at first I think they didn't know which door led to the lavatory, so when they saw the troll go in there, they locked it in!
How could they do such a thing?
They didn't mean to, though. They didn't know it was the lavatory.
How do you know that? They could have been planning it all along!
But they didn't know about the troll until Professor Quirrell came and told us all at dinner.
Unless they were the ones that let it in.
They were not! Do you really think that someone like Harry Potter would let a troll into the school so it would kill a girl he didn't like just because she is smarter than him?
No, I guess not. But how could they not know which door was the lavatory?
Well, they don't exactly use that lavatory considering it's a girls' lavatory, so they never knew where it was I guess.
Oh, yeah, I guess you're right. So what did they do when they realized that they locked it in the lavatory?
I heard that they went in after it. Apparently, they knocked it out with its own club!
That was smart of them to think of that.
I know! I heard Ron Weasley was the one that knocked it out!
Really? See, he isn't as stupid as you thought.
Well he was stupid for insulting Hermione in the first place.
Oh, get over it. You're just jealous because Harry Potter talks to him.
I am not! I don't know where you think you got such an idea!
Well then stop complaining about how stupid Ron is.
Why, do you fancy him?
No, it's just getting very irritating.
Fine, I will.
Good. So, did they get in trouble for what they did?
Oh, thanks for reminding me! I have to finish the story.
What happened?
Well, I heard that a group of professors, including McGonagall, found them. Harry and Ron thought they were probably going to be expelled or something.
Did they get detention?
No, something unexpected happened! I heard Hermione made up a story to get Harry and Ron off the hook!
She lied to a professor? That doesn't sound like something Hermione would do.
I know! But she told them that she had gone after the troll herself and Harry and Ron had just come to her rescue and if they didn't she would be dead.
And they believed her?
Yes! They just took off five points for what she did.
So Harry and Ron didn't get into any trouble at all?
No, they were given five points each.
Wow! Hey, how did you hear all of this anyway?
Well, I heard some of it from Hannah Abbott, you know her, she's in Hufflepuff.
Yeah, she seems nice.
She is, but she's kind of quiet.
Well, anyone seems quiet compared to you!
Hey! Are you calling me loud?
Maybe. But in a good way. So how did you hear the rest of the story then?
I overheard some prefects talking about it in the common room.
Really? Where was I?
In the lavatory, I think.
I always miss the good stuff! That isn't fair.
Well, life isn't fair, Parvati.
Thanks, but you're not my mum. I don't need to hear that from you, too.
Haha, sorry. I couldn't resist.
Well resist from now on.
I shall. Uh oh, we should stop. Professor Quirrell is looking at us.
Alright.
(Note passed between Angelina Johnson, Alicia Spinnet, and Katie Bell.)
Alicia, we're doing another three-way with Katie. You know the order, same as last time.
Fine, but why is that the order anyway? Why can't I go second?
I don't know. It's just easier for me to remember this way.
Yeah, she probably likes me better so she wants to pass it to me.
Last time we did this you said I liked you better. You seem to think everyone likes you best.
That is very conceited of you, Katherine.
Well, I was just joking anyway. And don't call me Katherine!
Sure you were, Katherine. Hey, Ange, about the order we are passing this note, how come you always pass it to me first and then to Katie? Why don't you just start by passing it to one of us, preferably me, and tell us to pass it on instead of giving it back to you?
Well, I don't know. I just like it better that way. Then I know that everyone knows what they're supposed to do. Maybe I'll do it that way next time.
And she'll start with me of course.
What makes you think that?
It doesn't matter who I pass it to first. Why do you care so much?
I don't really care at all. I just like annoying you and Alicia about it.
That is not nice of you.
No, it really isn't.
Well, then, I won't do it anymore if you're going to take it so seriously.
I'm not taking it that seriously, it's just really annoying and you need to stop.
Please do, Katie, otherwise I'll tell Percy that you're harassing us.
Oh, I'm so scared.
You should be.
Yes. This is a dire threat meant to be taken seriously.
You people take everything seriously.
That's not true and you know it, Katie.
Well there was that one time in first year…
Ooh, what time? I wasn't here in your first year. Tell me!
I don't remember this "one time," but I don't want you to tell her anyway!
How can you not remember this? It was at Hogsmeade, does that ring any bells? (no pun intended, Katie)
Haha very funny, Ange. Hey you couldn't have been at Hogsmeade in your first year!
Oh, but when your friends are Fred and George Weasley, you can.
Does this mean you remember what happened now?
Oh, I can't believe I forgot that Fred and George found those secret passageways in their first year! I thought it was their second.
Nope, it was our first year. It was around Christmas when they found them, I think.
Yeah, sometime around then. It had to be before the Christmas trip to Hogsmeade, because that's when the incident occurred.
You have got to tell me about this incident right now before I ignore the Hogwarts rules and hex you both into oblivion!
You wouldn't do that and you know it, Katherine.
And besides, you wouldn't get to hear the story that way!
I could always ask the twins…unless they weren't there.
No, you wouldn't do that to me! I won't let you!
Yes, the twins were there. No, you won't need to ask them because I'll tell you. Unless Alicia wants to.
Either one of you can tell me as long as someone does! I need to know!
No you don't need to know. You've survived this long without knowing, you can survive longer!
I can't tell you now, because you will have one of your fits of laughter and that would disrupt the class and get us in trouble so I'll tell you at break.
Alright, but the suspense is killing me! Now I won't be able to concentrate on class at all until I know!
Too bad for you! I have no sympathy. None at all!
Here, Katie, keep this and we'll talk at break. Try to survive until then.
(Note passed between Draco Malfoy and Vincent Crabbe.)
Crabbe, pass this note back to me okay?
…
No, you idiot! You have to write a response on it first! Now, write something on this and then pass it back to me.
Lik this?
Yes. That wasn't so hard, was it?
Not relly.
Really, Crabbe, didn't you ever learn how to spell?
I gues. Why?
Nevermind. I want to talk to you about Potter.
Whut des that haf to do with speling?
Nothing! It has nothing to do with your pathetic excuse for spelling. Now, tell me, what do you think of Potter?
I duno. Hes famus. His scar luks funy.
Besides his scar and his fame.
Whuts fame?
Being famous.
O. He has blak hare.
Everybody knows that, stupid! Honestly, I don't know why I bother.
Bother with whut?
NEVERMIND! Just answer this question. Do you think Potter should be trusted?
I duno. Do you want me to trust him?
Crabbe, you just spelled a whole sentence without any mistakes!
I did? O wel I gues I did.
For once in your life I guess. Ah well, the Dark Lord won't care if you can spell or not, will he?
I duno, will he?
No, he won't! And I don't think we should trust Potter because he's friends with that scum Weasley.
I don't lik wesels.
No, Crabbe. Nobody does.
Yay, done with another chapter. Please review no matter what you think of the story. I've noticed there are many more hits to the page than reviews. I'm hoping it won't get to the point where it's a lot of hits and next to nothing reviews. Just let me know what you think.
Oh, and let me know which characters you like the best so I can write more of them for you if you want.
Review!
