Disclaimer : I don't own Harry Potter nor the books or anything that sounds familiar to you. I'm reading the books while I type to make sure the chapters are correctly in order, I can't just go on based off my lame memory :D
I was sitting on a bench outside. On my lap laid a book and a sheet of parchment. Potions was going to the death of me, If I keep failing every assignment. My parent's sent me a letter reminding me that they expect to at least make Acceptable on my school work.
I never like doing homework, It hurts my brain. I'm one failed quiz away from begging Hermione to be my tutor. Plus I'm easily distracted. That too will also be the death of me. I can't do homework when my mind keeps thinking of Hogsmeade.
My head titled up when I heard the sounds of two prankster gingers approach me.
" Imera"
" Ench".
Fred and George would say. One after the other in some sort of rehearsed way, that only two as close as them could ever perfectly do.
" We bear you a gift We …."
" …..hope you find delightful". Fred finished the sentence George had started. George handed me a piece of chocolate. I bit into it. It tasted normal, like regular chocolate. Then a strange tingling came to my tongue. I spat out the chocolate and stuck out my tongue.
The Weasley twins threw a fit of laughter. My tongue was green ! I wadded up my blank paper and threw it at them.
" Hold, Fire" One of them shouted.
" you two are awful ! " I cried.
" No, we're geniuses " They replied. I shook my head, then turned to face the school. I started to march away from them.
" You're worse than a box of every flavor beans ! " I shouted back at them. I entered the castle and made my way to the grand staircase. Fred and George ! Honestly ! I can't go around with a green tongue, now can I ?
I heard footsteps coming up from behind me. Hermione carrying hundreds of books in her arms hurried behind me. Her necklace's chain was tucked underneath her shirts collar.
" You alright, Hermione ? " I asked. She nodded her head and sighed. Their were bags under her eyes, and she hardly ever came down for breakfast anymore.
" what's with the green tongue ? " She inquired.
" Fred and George " I muttered. Her eyes rolled. We began to climb the ever changing stairs as to make our way back to our common room.
" Ergh!" Hermione said. " I cannot believe those two, they're in their O.W.L year. They should be focused on how to pass instead of making …"
" chocolates that turn your tongue green " I finished for her. We now stepped on to the fourth floor. A door opened up that lead to its corridor. The worst thing imaginable stepped out.
Pansy Parkison and some other slytherin girl stood there before us.
" Oh, look" Pansy spat. " two filthy mud bloods wondering about as If they have a right too". I felt my stomach sink. That word was terrible. I glanced at Hermione who's face also sunk.
" The know-it-all and" The other girl started but speak but instead screamed." What the ? Ewww, Look Pansy! Her tongue is so disgusting" I immediately shut my mouth.
" Do all lowlife's have sickening green tongues " Pansy asked.
I heard footsteps coming down from another staircase. " The only Lowlife with a sickening green tongue is you, " I heard Ron tell her.
" Why don't you do yourselves a favor and get lost " Harry added.
Yeah ! Ten Thousand Points To Potter & Weasley ! Whoo!
Pansy glared at him before turning her friend to walk back into the corridor. Once the two atrocious girls were gone, Hermione and I leaped ( not literally) for joy !
" Thanks, Harry " I said. He shrugged his shoulders. The four of us made our way upstairs to our dormitory.
We stared in front of the lady in the portrait. She seemed rather happy today. Maybe it was because Neville finally remembered a password. Ron said it and we stepped inside.
On the couch sat Lavender. Her face was all puffy and red. Tears began to pour out of her eyes. Parvati and Padma Patil were around her trying to comfort her.
" What happened, Lavender " I asked. Neville explained that Lavender received a letter, telling her that her bunny, binky, had been killed by a fox.
I wanted to mention that our trip to Hogsmeade should cheer her up, but Hermione shook her head no when she saw me begin to mouth the words Hogsmeade. Her eyes gestured to Harry. I kept forgetting he wasn't allowed to leave the school grounds, and the last thing we needed were two Gryffindors crying their eyes out in the common room.
Hogsmeade was going to be awesome ! Our prefects lead us down and told us that we had to meet up at a certain time. I forgot what time, Oh well, I'm sure Hermione would remember it. I would just ask her later.
Lavender's eyes were still a bit puffy. We stood around before akwardy departing in separate groups. We headed to Zonko's Joke shop first. I was surprised Fred and George hadn't made a tent in the store, though they did say something about checking out the shrieking shack.
" Imera " I heard Parvati cry. " Your tongue ! " I gazed at my reflection in the window. Ick !My tongue's sickly color hadn't vanished yet.
" That's so gross " Lavender gagged. I covered my mouth.
" What happened ?" Padma asked.
" Ewe, I hope its not some virus or something " A Raven claw girl chimed in. Her hair was black, straight black, with bangs covering her eyes. I heard about her before. Her name started with a "C". Was it Candance or Claire …
" I can't afford to get sick " She breathed. Oh, now I remember, Cho Chang. She whipped her head back to what she was looking at, her hair colliding into parvati's face. She was gazing at a sixth year hufflepuff boy who I've only seen during the quid ditch matches. I forget what his name was as well, It started with a " c" as well.
" Urgh! " Lavender was shaking. " It's disgusting, yet I can't stop looking at it". I wanted to cry. The last thing I needed was the whole school thinking I'm diseased.
" It's Fred and George's mess " Ginny said as she came over to our group. " Whatever you do, do not eat the chocolates. They turn your tongue " She pointed to my tongue. Parvati's face looked flush and the other girls whisked her off to the bathroom.
" They said it should wear off in an hour or two " Ginny told me.
" yeah, " I muttered. " but in an hour or two everyone in Hogwarts will know about my gross tongue". Ginny and I found Ron, Hermione and Neville at Honeydukes, where we stayed for the remainder of the trip. Hermione purchased a few things to bring back to Harry.
Later I headed back up to the dormitory to get ready for dinner. I headed up along with Lee Jordan and Parvati. I glanced at the portrait and didn't see the Fat Lady.
" Where is she? " I asked out loud. Dean and Seamus were standing right next to the empty portrait.
" We've been wondering the same thing " Seamus stated.
A few fifth year Gryffindors came downstairs and also found the portrait to be blocked. Soon we managed to create a huge crowd of Gryffindors surrounding our entrance.
" Neville must've forgotten the password again " I heard Ron say through out the crowd. From the top of another stair case I could see Ron's shock when he noticed Neville step up behind him.
Percy Weasley pushed passed me and Parvati. " Let me through, please" his voice echoed through all of us. " What's the hold up here ? " He passed his younger twin brothers. " You can't all have forgotten the password".
Well, in our defense you did change twice already !
" Excuse me, " Percy said to three sixth years who weren't making much of an effort to let him through. " I'm Head Boy".
Dumbledoore showed up and in a mad rush, we all started searching for The Fat Lady. She was found soon enough. Her voice was trembling. She told us that someone dreadful had managed into Hogwarts. Sirius Black!
All of the students ( Unfortunately that included Slytherin !) had to sleep in the Great Hall. I grabbed my sleeping bag and pulled it over to where my friends were. Percy told us that we should all try to start sleeping soon as he was turning out the lights in ten minutes.
None of us paid attention. We were all whispering about possible ways Sirius Black got in.
" maybe he knows how to Apparate " Ally Rowes ( Ravenclaw) suggested. She had curled her sleeping bag beside Padma's. " just appear out of thin air, you know".
" Disguised himself, probably " Derek Stevens ( Hufflepuff prefect ) mentioned.
" He could've flown in " Dean suggested.
Hermione rolled her eyes at our group. " Honestly" Her voice rang. " am I the only person who's ever bothered to read Hogwarts, A History ? ".
" Lights go out in five minutes " Percy wailed. We all simply ignored him.
" Probably" Ron answered Hermione's question. " Why?".
" Lights go out in three minutes, So stop talking ! " Percy shouted. Hermione continued to whisper something to Harry and Ron. The kids from the other houses went over to where a majority of there's were.
However, the Gryffindor's least favorite person came over to us.
Draco Malfoy snickered at the whole group of us. " You Gryffindorks afraid of the dark ? " He taunted. Neville sunk beneath his sleeping bag. " Afraid of the dementors, or Black ? " His cocky laugh was only echoed by the weird yelps of his cronies.
His eyes waved over to mine for a minute, there was a flicker between a smirk and smile, but then back to a smirk as he addressed Harry. " Better get some sleep, Potthead. Maybe it'll keep you from feinting during the quid ditch. Merlin knows you need all the help you can get ! ".
" The lights are going out now! " Percy shouted. " I want every one in their sleeping bags " The Slytherin prince and his cronies slid back to their lot. " and no more talking!".
The candles all went out at once. I close my eyes. The only thing that kept me away was the sound of all of the Weasley kids snoring. Ron and Ginny seemed to have a competition, and Fred and George were having a conversation with theirs. I slowly drifted off into a deep sleep, a deep dreamless sleep.
Tell me what you think ! I'm doing my best here, but I need to know if there's anything I can improve on. I'm trying to keep Draco in Character as well as the other's in Character too ! Most of this chapter has lines taken directly out of Prisoner of Azkaban.
Thanks for Reading !
