A/N: For all the people who have an anti-typo complex, both authors of this story realize that "Bleech" is spelt wrong. We do it because the double "E" is far more enticing than the "ea" in its normal spelling. Thanks.

Chapter 1: The Bleech Convoy of 1999
May 1999 witnessed a rapid revolt that shook the very foundation of the Wizarding World. This revolt, known as The Bleech Convoy of 1999, brought about the liberalization of House Elves all over the world.
The Bleech Convoy of 1999 is one of the shortest yet most horrifying revolts in Wizarding history, lasting only two weeks. For these two weeks House Elves all over the world refused to use bleach in their washing (wizards are very attached to their white underwear as shown by the poll in Wizards International in the 1997, August 14th edition). These elves paraded down streets with dirty white underwear on poles proclaiming the words: "Freedom of SPEECH OR YOU GOT NO BLEECH!"
Many leading historians believed the revolt began in Britain and was led by Dobby, a house elf who had been free since 1992, and greatly influenced by Hermione Granger, founder and head of the International S.P.E.W. (Society for the Promotion of Elfish Welfare) Foundation, yet there is no definite proof to this claim. It is known that had it not been for Loowy, a House Elf from an unnamed family, the whole effort may have been in vain. He is responsible for the capture and forced confinement of Winky the house elf, a traitor to the cause, who had been sneaking bleach into any washer she getst to-
The textbook closed abruptly, and the young 11 year old rolled over sheepishly on his bed, "This History is bloody boring."
A/N: Yes, there's more to the story… we have to give background before we can throw in the main event. Just… relaaax…. yoshi09/Moonlightshadows
