I finally decided to continue with this story. I'm going to update the poll on my profile page and then see who is the next to fall victim to one of Lavender and Parvati's makeovers. I hope you all enjoy Penelope Clearwater's Turn.

Penelope was sitting in her compartment just reading a book. She heard a sharp knock on the door and wondered who that could be. Standing up and going over she opened the door to find a second year Gryffindor standing in front of her. Not just one but two.

"Can I help you girls?" she asked confused as to why the two were standing here in front of her and not a Gryffindor prefect. She looked around knowing that Percy Weasley took his duties as a prefect pretty serious. Whatever problem these girls had he could handle.

"We don't have any problems," the girl with brunette hair told her pushing past her while pulling along her little dark haired friend with her. "We're here to help you with a problem."

"And what exact problem is that?" Penelope raised her eyebrow ever so slightly. "And how can two second year Gryffindors help me with said problem even if I did have?"

"You like the fifth year Gryffindor Prefect," Lavender stated as though this was obvious to everyone on the train except for Penelope and Percy themselves. "My friend Parvati's sister, Padma, is in your house. She told us all about it. She over heard you talking to one of your friends last year."

Penelope felt her face heat up. She hadn't meant for anyone to over hear her conversation with Bernice. Let alone a first year. And a first year who didn't seem to be able to keep their mouth shut too.

"I don't see how you can help me," she said trying to shut whatever these two second years were up to down.

"We can," the other girl, Parvati obviously, told her.

"We're going to give you a makeover," Lavender told her as though this was the funnest thing in the world. "Then you'll catch the eye of your ginger haired prince and live happily ever after."

Penelope held back a laugh at this pronouncement.

But to say Lavender and Parvati would not be dissuaded was an understatement. They didn't leave until she agreed to let them give her a make over. And when they did leave it was only for a few minutes. They returned promptly with a huge bag with them.

"What's in there?" Penelope asked.

"You'll see," Lavender said with a smile. "Just relax and let us do the work. You'll be perfect in no time."

A few hours, or least that is what it seemed to Penelope, their work was done. She was lead to a the mirror that the two had propped up against the window.

"Take a look," Lavender told her.

Penelope looked in the mirror and her mouth dropped open in shock. She never knew that she could look like this. They had flattened her hair and pulled it up into a beautiful up do. They given her smokey eye and simple blush with some lip gloss. The outfit was kind of cute too. It was floral tank top with a fitted pair of jeans.

"You like?" asked both Lavender and Parvati together.

She nodded mutely as she looked at herself in the mirror. Knowing that she would never have picked out this outfit for herself if given the choice. She felt to pairs of hands pulling pulling her towards the door.

"There he," whispered Lavender. "Go get him, girl."

Penelope felt herself being propelled out of the door. A blush crept up her face as she crashed right into Percy Weasley.

"I'm so sorry," she quickly apologized to him.

"It's o..." he stopped short not sure how to continue.

Penelope heard a muffled cheer of excitement behind her as Lavender and Parvati left the compartment. More than likely on their way to find their next makeover victim.

Lavender smiled at her handiwork as they walked down the hallway of the Hogwarts Express. She was only doing the work that God and her own talent with people had chosen for her. Right?

I hope you all enjoyed Penelope Clearwater's Turn.
