It was the school holidays a d most of the school were away but Harry, Hermanonie, Maldono, Ghosty and some teachers were still at school because they livee there in the castle.

There was some quiet and Hermanonie and Maldono bullied Harry a bit with their magic and also through some practical jokes. They put mantises in Red Group's room and listened to him scream.

The evil thermometer in the food room went down but only for a minute….it then went back up! Maybe Hogwarts wasn't free of evil as was thought.

A mist of evil spilled out of the garden Room door where the evil plants were left and forgotten about because of the ogre and stone jar incidents. With Professor Turnip dead there was noflower to keep them under control.

Some roots spilled under the door. McDonaldall saw. She gasped but only a little. She turned into a cat and went to visit Snip.

In the potions room, Snip was there.

"Hello Snip, I have bad news." She said.

"Harry has an IQ!? Frognal is alive!?" He jumped from his chair saying those things.

"No Snip, I said bad, not the worst possible." She comforted him.

"Then wHat is it?" He asked.

"Do not be rude or I'll rip out your tongue with my powers. But I shall now say. The plants in the garden Room have started to grow again. They are oozing purple mist and it is coming through the bottom of the door. I think there is going to be some evil happening. I thought I should tell you and see what you think is an appropriate action to take." She said.

"Hmmm. I will think about it." He said.

Snip laud back in his chair and was thinking very strongly. McDonaldall walked away as a cat and went to her room.
