A/N: Hello everyone and thank you for all the reviews. `Sea and Chaos´ had brought a very good idea up that Loki should start to bring good music to Hogwarts since his dislike of what the wizards call music. So if you have some suggestions what Loki should play/sing tell me and I'll see what I can do.

So now onwards with some more Ron-bashing! Have fun!


Chapter 4: First lesson: Transfiguration

The next morning, they all sat together at the Gryffindor table talking about the last evening and what happened that night.


-Flashback-

Initially, Harry should have slept in the bed right next to Ron Weasley while Neville was on his other side. Between Neville and the window was Loki's bed. Still, Loki quickly suggested Harry switch beds with him, especially since Ron tried to approach Harry several times that evening to get shouted at when Harry finally had enough. Harry was happy not having to sleep next to the redhead. Loki didn't care since he didn't need to sleep at all.

But the best thing happened in the middle of the night.

Ron snored very loud, and everyone woke up to that point when Loki gave him his personal 'Ice Bucket Challenge', something he had seen on TV before he came to Hogwarts. He conjured up a bucket, went into the bathroom, filled it with ice-cold water and emptied it on Ron's head. Said idiot woke up snorting and coughing, glaring at Loki.

"I'll do this every time you wake someone with your snoring, understood? And next time there might be actual ice in it."

Ron started rambling about this treatment, but Loki wasn't in the mood for it.

"There are people here who try to sleep, but you are effectively preventing that and now be quiet, or I'll throw you out," Loki warned him for the last time.

But Ron kept on rambling, so Loki snapped with his fingers and dumped the boy in the middle of one of the Slytherin dorms where he effectively woke up everyone. Not to mention that they were pissed as hell and hexed him for good before calling Snape in.

The Gryffindor dorm in the meantime was happy that they could sleep without any further interruption.


Now they all sat at breakfast, chatting lively while Ron entered the hall with a bright red head.

"You Laufeyson, I'm going to kill you!" he shouted, letting students at the different tables look at him.

"Have fun trying," Loki shrugged.

"Do you have any idea what I have been through last night?" Ron fumed.

After waking up the female 6th year Slytherin dorm, he had had a tough time to explain a pissed off Snape and McGonagall how he got in there and what he had been doing in the girl's dorm. Because being woken in the middle of the night, they hadn't been in the mood for his antics. Not to mention that they hadn't believed him one word when he told them that Loki had ported him there with a snap of his fingers. He had received two weeks' worth of detention, and the Slytherin girls branded him as a pervert.

The icing on the cake was that he hadn't been able to get back into the Gryffindor rooms either. Because the Fat Lady also hadn't been the slightest bit amused having been woken up in the middle of the night and had outright refused to let him back in.

The Gryffindor's it taught to never piss of Loki and that being on his good side would help them fending off others who thought taking on with them would be a good idea.

They had asked him who he was after the incident because nobody of their age would have been able to pull that stunt, but he only told them to ask the twins. Earlier that morning, they did just that, and with his consent, they informed them. He laughed his ass off upon the sight they gave him upon learning that he was, in fact, the 'Loki, God of mischief and mayhem' while sucking some sweets.

Later, after someone asked, Loki explained that there wasn't a 'Not-to-prank-List' not even for those he considered friends. That came as a blow to Harry and Neville. But he would gladly defend everyone who wasn't on his 'Shit-List', which Ron led with a considerable advance, from bullies and the like. Oh, and he didn't have a problem getting pranked himself which conjured several mischievous smiles, especially from the twins. But overall they liked him and agreed to cover him up when he did something to protect them. Pranks, on the other hand…that depended on who got pranked and what the trick was.

"I don't know, and honestly I don't care," Loki retorted before resuming to his breakfast.

"You ported me right into the 6th year female dorm of Slytherin!"

Some started to snicker, and it seemed Ron was about to explode. At that moment, Professor McGonagall went around and gave them their timetables while giving him a stern glare. Growling, he took his and nearly ran out of the hall.

"Don't you think that this was a bit too much porting him into the female Slytherin dorm?" Harry asked him after McGonagall was out of hearing distance.

"First, he is an imbecile and an ass. He has no basic manners, he rarely takes a bath, so he smells like weeks-old socks. And he is a bully of the worst kind. Did you hear how he had treated that Granger girl yesterday? He is even worse than Malfoy," at the end, Loki growled. "And to my defence, it hadn't been my intention to dump him in a female dorm. I aimed for the Slytherin dorms in general, so it was sheer dumb luck he landed there. Or bad, that depends on who you ask."

Harry looked at him in disbelieve, but several from his house nodded in agreement.

"He is right. Ron wronged Hermione yesterday. I asked her what had happened when I found her crying in our dorm. She told me everything. How he called her a know-it-all and a Mudblood and made jokes on her. It seems he had been very cruel to her," Lavender Brown told them.

At that time, Hermione entered the hall, evidently coming from the library because she had a massive book under her arm. About Norse Mythology? Loki grinned upon which Hermione blushed while she sat down.

"Hermione, I'd like to ask something from you," Loki said, and Hermione nodded. "If that imbecile Weasley ever again bullies you, tell me. I'm fed up with his attitude and its time he learns that he is not at the top of the food chain and can do however he likes."

Hermione looked at him as if he was an alien. Nobody ever stood up for her or defended her, but she nodded. She had also been in the common room this morning when the twins told them the truth hence why she was carrying that book. First, she didn't believe them but now after some reading, she began to trust Loki. Even while he stretched the rules a bit far for her liking.

"So that said what lessons do we have today?" Loki asked cheerfully, trying to get rid of the gloom.

"Hmm, first Transfiguration, second History of Magic, lunch break and at last double potions. Doesn't sound that bad," Harry mused.

"I heard that Professor Snape teaches potions. He is very strict and doesn't tolerate any mistakes. They also said that he hates children and only teaches because he is indebted to Dumbledore," Neville said.

"That doesn't sound very good. Which of the professors is he?"

"The one with the greasy black hair Loki pranked yesterday."

Harry gulped. He remembered said professor very well, and he didn't like him. It didn't sound very promising; he had looked forward to potions.

"I think in the worst case I can convince him not to give you too much trouble," Loki grinned.

"Thank you and while it is nice to have a friend who cares, don't you think it would better that I sort it out myself should there be any problems? These are my problems anyway," Harry replied.

Loki reluctantly nodded. He was very protective when it came to those people he called his friends mostly because he had only very few, but he wouldn't intervene for now. On the other hand, should Snape go too far, well he would get to know what it meant to be on his 'Shit-List'.

After they finished breakfast Harry, Neville and Loki together went to Transfiguration.

The three entered the Transfiguration classroom early and sat down in the front row. Harry looked at the tabby cat that sat on the teachers' desk but dismissed it as Professor McGonagall's pet.

"What do you think will this class be like?" Neville asked curiously.

"I don't know, but you are the one with the most magical experience so you should be able to tell us," Harry answered with a laugh.

Neville blushed. "I know, but I haven't shown any magical sign until I was eight. Draco was right that my family thought for a long time that I might be a squib."

"What is a squib anyway?"

"A person born to magical parents but without any magic themselves," Neville explained.

While they talked, more and more students arrived and sat down.

"I wonder where Professor McGonagall is," Harry mused.

Loki chuckled while secretly conjuring up another cat, undoubtedly a male one, behind the one sitting on the desk in the front. The tabby cat jumped up in surprise when the other cat walked up to her and started to snuggle her. She eyed the other one warily watching how it approached her again, clearly attempting more than snuggling. When she had enough, she jumped off the table while transforming back into a human, Professor McGonagall to be precise. Some of the students took a gasp on that performance.

"How did you know it was me, and how did you conjure up the other cat, Mr Laufeyson?" Professor McGonagall demanded to know from Loki.

"Well, I knew that the one cat was you, because of the marks around your eyes which resemble your glasses. But I didn't conjure up the other cat," he explained playing the innocent.

"Don't play dumb I heard you chuckle before that other cat appeared out of nowhere."

"I chuckled because of Harry's question. I know for a fact that you saw that I never once touched my wand which laid visibly on my table the entire time," Loki argued. At the same time, an angelic smile crept onto his face.

Professor McGonagall huffed. He was right his wand laid on his table the entire time without him touching it once, and she doubted he was able to perform wandless magic. She questioned whether he could do it even WITH a wand because it was taught it in the fifth grade at the earliest. That was also the reason why she didn't believe Weasley this night. Remotely teleporting a person was so advanced they didn't even teach it at Hogwarts. Not to mention doing it silently with only a snapping of the fingers like he had claimed. She doubted that even Dumbledore could do it, and he was one of the most powerful wizards. But she would have an eye on Laufeyson nevertheless. He was up to something; she wasn't even the slightest little bit fooled by that angelic smile of his.

She turned around starting the lesson by giving the class a speech about Transfiguration, the dangers and what one can do with it. As an example, she demonstrated her skills by transforming her desk into a pig and back. After that, she gave everyone a matchstick they were supposed to turn into a needle.

Harry and Neville tried very hard for some time, but they couldn't change it in any way while Loki played with his matchstick observing them.

"It sounds easier than it is in reality" Harry growled while Neville nodded.

"That's because you approach the subject in the wrong way. You wave your wand and say the spell hoping it reacts as you want. But magic and that includes every branch of it, not only Transfiguration, is a combination of imagination and willpower. This transforming a matchstick into a needle issue, for example. First, you have to look very closely at the matchstick, get to know it. Then conjure up an image of a needle in your mind. Think about the needle what it looks like what is the material etcetera. The last step is to take your wand, point it at the matchstick say the spell and will it into the form of the needle you have in your mind," Loki explained. "The more accurate the image in your mind, the easier the transformation."

Harry and Neville nodded before they did what Loki explained. Harry's matchstick transformed the halfway to a needle before it stuck at that. Neville's in the meantime only slightly changed colour. Loki gave them some more advice. Harry managed to transform his matchstick entirely at the end of the lesson, while Neville just got a partial transformation.

"Mr Laufeyson, Mr Longbottom and Mr Potter, please stay behind" Professor McGonagall called out. At the same time, the students packed up and left the classroom.

"Good work Mr Potter, Mr Longbottom and an excellent explanation Mr Laufeyson. However, the entire time I haven't seen you perform it once," she told them.

Loki picked up one of the matchsticks, put it on the table, took out his wand, and murmured something. They all watched the matchstick transforming into a lollipop before Loki popped it into his mouth with a smile.

Professor McGonagall huffed. "While not a needle, in the end, a perfect result. Three points to each of you, Mr Longbottom and Mr Potter, for good work and four for Mr Laufeyson's excellent explanation and performance. Oh, and you owe me a matchstick. You're dismissed," she told them with a smile.

Loki laughed and pointed at the table where innocently laid a matchstick before the three left the classroom.

Professor McGonagall shook her head. She couldn't pinpoint it, but there was something about Laufeyson.

The three friends agreed that this was a perfect start. They were eagerly awaiting the other lessons.
