Chapter Three
Hangovers And Peeves
As they searched for the common room entrance, they decided to split up.
"I'll- hic!- go this way, the rest of you- hic!- split up along the corridor- hic!- got it?" said Rachel, whose bubbliness was starting to come up.
They nodded.
After about ten minutes of searching, laughing, falling over, more searching, more falling over, and finally lots of hiccups, Alyssa hissed, "Found it!"
The others walked over and saw before them the sleeping portrait of Salazar Slytherin.
"Hey!" Ginny hissed.
No reply.
"HEY!" she loudly whispered while tapping the portrait with her palm.
He snorted and awoke, opening his eyes and glaring down at them.
"Do you have any idea what time i-" he stared.
"Of course we do! We wouldn't be here if we didn't!" interupted Christina, dazed.
"What time is it, then?" questioned Salazar to Christina snidely.
She opened her mouth to speak, and then a blank look crossed her face.
She thought for a moment and then leaned over slightly to whisper to Knitter, "What time is it?"
"Twelve twenty."
"Twelve twenty!" Christina said to him.
"So there!" added Ginny.
He looked at her disgusted, rolled his eyes, and then said, "Well? What do you want?"
"The password," supplied Alyssa.
"I'm not giving you the password," he said.
"Then just letus in."
"No!You're just a bunch of Gryffindors," he humphed.
"No we're not," sneered Ginny.
"Yes you are; you're wearing the Gryffindor crst on your robes!"
"No we're not," repeated Knitter.
"I'm looking at them right now! You're wearing them!" he said, getting extremely annoyed.
"Okay, good point... but... we... we... we stole these robes! We're really in Slytherin, and we forgot the password." said Alyssa.
"But it's been the same all term, and how come I've never seen you before?"
"We're foriegn exchanged students."
"From where?"
"Russia!" said Rachel.
"But you speak perfect English and have no accent."
"That's because we moved here over summer and we had time to learn."
"It is impossible to learn an entire language over the span of three months.
"We did."
"Impossible."
"Akh kj kjdkfj hvnriio jgnbdqur sdgs fi kbhsjtposid nngfjxzja sd ad hgf sd gh g fty w wer rt ghk ytuiiuj mncvxb lksgfgj qopeutrywiour. Russia."
"What are you rambling on about?"
"I'm speaking Russian," said Knitter.
"No you're not."
"Can you speak Russain?"
"No, but-"
"Then how do you know I'm not if you don't know how yourself?"
"Because I know what Russian sounds like and thats just a bunch of rubbish."
"Wait! Huddle," said Alyssa.
They formed a circle and began to do the same thing Knitter had done.
"Knas dga rfg fg figrikhyj."
"Jidhgfhabeuf. Ndejae adhgja."
"BASGHD! Nkfgjhloyjki."
"Majhbgahv kginruer, ahrhgnfgh..."
"Opsdjwihnskfhn."
They came out from their circle.
"We've made a decision in Russian," explained Christina.
"You don't even know how to speak Ru-"
"We've decided you are going to give us the password."
"You can't tell me what to do."
"Yes we can!"
"No."
"Yes."
"Can't."
"Can."
"HUDDLE!"
They formed another circle, talking in low whispers.
"What if..."
"Well, yeah, but..."
"No, he can't..."
"He can try..."
"But what about the..."
"...work around that..."
"Alright."
They came back out.
"We've made another decision."
He raised his eyebrows.
"Let us in!" they whined.
"Stand back you guys."
Everyone looked at Alyssa.
"What are you..."
"Just stand back."
They did what she said.
Alyssa drew her wand and took a deep breath.
"Bombarder!"
BANG.
The portrait was gone.
Blown to shreds.
"Lets go."
"He was really starting to get on my nerves."
They all crowded into the common room.
"Okay, remember the plan. Go!"
They split up, Rachel, Alyssa, and Ginny went to the seventh year bos dorm, and Knitter and Christina went up to the seventh year girls' dorm.
And they worked their magic.
Christina awoke the next morning grogily.
She got up out of bed hesitantly, her head ache getting worse by the minute.
The hangover she obviously had was unbearable.
Ginny was plopped in the bed next to hers, Alyssa on the other side of her, and Rachel on the other side of Christina.
It was about ten in the morning on the Saturday after the first week of school.
Christina, wearing the same boxer short type things she slept in with her oversized black sleeping shirt, walked over to the bathroom, took a shower, put on some surfer shorts and a black tank top.
Alyssa woke up next.
She was sitting on her bed rubbing her eyes when Christina walked back into the dorm.
She looked horrible.
Her eyes had dark circles under them and she looked like she was barely alive.
Christina said:
"Oh, at least you didn't have that much Firewhiskey. Everyone else thinks that we all have to live off it. Here."
Christina walked over to Alyssa, who was watching her with unsteady eyes.
Christina kneeled down, holding Alyssa's face in her hands.
She felt her forehead, her cheeks, and then she said:
"You need a Hangover Solution. I'll be back in, like... well, I don't know when I'll be back. Seeing as I'll probably have to sneak the potion in here. And I doubt Madam Pomfrey has one pre-made. Which means that I'll have to make one myself. Which means that I'll have to get the ingridients from the Dungeons. Which is absolutely wonderful."
She inwardly groaned.
"Do you see what I do for you?"
"That's why we love you."
"I'll be back... soon."
"Don't forget to bring enough for everyone. I don't think Gin will be waking up for a while, but she's gonna need as much as she can get."
Christina put a hand up while walking away to signify that she heard Alyssa.
So, after putting on some black sandals, Christina quickly and quietly made her way to the Dungeons.
When she got in the Entrance Hall, she took off her sandals and tip-toed while half running into the Dungeons.
She went down the stairs, and slowly and quietly made her way to Snapes office.
Every step she took seemed to echo.
It seemed so loud to her.
Finally, after what seemed hours later, Christina was at Snapes door.
She gently reached up and triggered the handle.
Locked.
She pulled out her wand.
"Alohamora," she said barely above a whisper.
She heard the door click.
It echoed through the dark, cold corridor.
She swung the door open and at one point, it made a loud creaking noise.
Christina cringed and stopped.
She looked around.
No one in the hallway, no one in his office.
She walked in, shut the door, and cast the locking and silencing spells on it.
She took a moment for a breath.
Then, once more becoming serious, she looked around for the ingredients closet.
She walked over to the door and found it, too, was locked.
"Alohamora," once more escaped her lips.
The door clicked and she opened it in a hurry.
"Hangover potion, hangover potion... um, okay, we need this one... this one..." and for about the next five minutes, Christina picked out the ingrieients for her potion, and when she had them all, she found acauldron and shrunk all of it with the ingredients in it.
She slipped it in her pocket and shut the door.
She walked across the room, ready to head out, and when she was in the Hallway, she took off the silencing and locking charms and, still holding her sandals, headed back to Gryffindor tower.
However, when she was on the fifth floor, she heard a crash.
She waited a moment, and she hadn't taken three steps when she heard another one, closer this time.
Then there was a frightening silence.
"BOO!"
Christina screamed and turned around to find Peeves floating behind her.
(A/N OOOHHHH cliffhanger! will peeves tell on her? will she make it back to the common room in time to make sure that her friends wont die of hangover! lol please review and i shall update)
