Harry Weasley
Chapter Twenty-Eight: Lockharts first mistake
When he lifted the cover to reveal a cage full of Pixies, the whole class let out a collective gasp. "These students are Cornish Pixies, and I want you too use your wands and without killing them, put them back into their cage when I release them." With that he opened the door to the cage, and the pixies flew out. He immediately sprinted to the door of his office, and told them, "go ahead and get started." At that he shut himself into his office and watched out of a magical window that the students couldn't see. He was pretty sure that these students should be able to take care of the pixies, but was there just in case.
As soon as he let them out, they scattered for the hills and there was spells being shouted at them left and right. A pair of them took and picked Neville up and hung him upside down. Pansy shot a stunning spell at the pixies that had him in the air, but they were to fast, and she accidentally hit Neville. When he was hanging there upside down and unconscious, there were a few snickers from around the room, but mostly there was screams of terror.
Hermoine was the one that decided that what they needed was a plan, so she cast the Sonorus charm on herself, and yelled out. "Team up two at a time, and try to stun them without hitting the other students, we outnumber them by at least 2 to 1 so we should be able to take them out." Hermoine immediately teamed up with Harry, and Ron hooked up with Neville after he revived him and got him down. Draco and Pansy, Crabbe and Goyle, Dean and Seamus, and Padma and Blaize Zambini were a team of cohorts. They went about going after the pixies with utter abandon.
Hermoine and Harry were doing pretty good with their's in that they first cornered it, and cast a stunner at it, which it easily dodged, but wasn't able to dodge the one shot by Harry at the same time. He was hit and put into his cage with no problem. They sat down for a minute to catch their thoughts as they watched the rest of the class take down their pixies.
Ron and Neville were able to cast a freeze spell on theirs, and saw that it was freezing to much, so they made the mistake of unfreezing it before they put it in the cage. The pixie flew off laughing at them, and was taken down by a quick thinking Ron who shot a stunner at the awed Pixie. A red faced Ron and Neville picked up theirs and put it in the cage, then joined Harry and Hermoine waiting for the rest.
Draco and Pansy used a shocking curse on their pixie and immediately put it in the cage with a laugh at the commotion that Ron and Neville had while with theirs.
Dean and Seamus cast a cheering charm on their pixie and while it was laughing at them, and flying directly at them to be caught, they decided to put it in the cage right away before casting the counter curse.
Padma and Blaize were having a bit of trouble with theirs in that it wouldn't stay still even tho they had stunned it a couple of times. When they were finally able to stun it out, they had a good laugh as they put it in the cage.
Now the most hilarious one had to be Crabbe and Goyle, in that they couldn't get theirs at all, so the rest of the class were helping them grab their pixie. When they finally got the last pixie into the cage, they were dismissed by a laughing Professor Lockhart, who had emerged after they caught the last one. "No homework tonight, just read up on the proper ways to take out Cornish Pixies."
