HELLO! TIME FOR A NEW CHAPTER!
Don't own Harry Potter.
Over the course of the next few days the whole school was buzzing about Sirius Black. Theories circled around on how he had entered the castle and Gryffindor Common room. Each rumor was more and more wilder than the last; Gibby and Hannah Abbott wouldn't shut up about how he could have gotten past the Dementors. Sierra was ready to kill both of them in Herbology.
Jess was telling Dumbledore what had happened a few nights ago. Filch had replaced the Fat Lady portrait with Sir Cadogan and his fat pony because no one else wanted to. A few people were complaining about him in the Great Hall. It was funny hearing about it because the stories kept changing. Jayce and Ally were telling Shannen about how he kept screaming at the first years to fight him.
"It's really annoying. He tells us to fight him before we can even go in." Jayce grumbled.
Ally nodded as she chomped on a piece of toast.
"Girls have I got a story for you." Katie sat down next to George and Shannen, "When we had to sleep in the Great Hall. Your brother, Percy, started to hit on me."
George wrapped his arms around her defensively with a growl. Shannen laughed as she remembered what Percy said.
"It's not that funny. It was creepy and he called George a bum."
"GUYS! GUYS! GUYS!"
"Gibby shut your ungodly mouth! How dare you yell in the presence of us gods and women of the gods." Zack snapped at him.
Gibby ran over, tripped, then crawled the rest of the way breathing hard, "You'll never guess was Cedric Diggory told me…"
Katie and Shannen glared at him with devil eyes. Sierra glanced over from the Hufflepuff table with Cedric.
"Nobody cares about what Cedric freaking Diggory has to say David." Jayce murmured.
"Jayce you're turning into a dinosaur again." Ally mumbled but was unheard.
"He said…"Jess walked in and pushed Gibby down onto the floor, "Sirius Black hasn't been found."
Katie gasped, Jayce slammed her fist against the table, Ally fainted into Fred's lap, Shannen shook her head disapprovingly, and Zack laughed.
"Think it's funny do you?" Katie snapped.
"A bit, they haven't caught the bloke and he was only here a few night ago. If you want to know what I think, the schools going to shite."
"Yeah well nobody cares what you think Pieper so shove it." Shannen said. "Well, as I was saying before you lot interrupted. I heard Potter telling McGonagall that he may be the reason Black came to Hogwarts in the first place." Jess sat down next to Zack.
"It's always Harry. I swear can't he get a break?" Katie asked.
Zack looked at her and shook his head with sad eyes. If Potter would be their down fall then Zackary was not going to let him take anyone else with him.
In Hogwarts only three things really mattered. One, was Food. Two, was friends. And finally three was Quidditch. It was the most supported sport in the Wizarding World. Hogwarts was where everyone who played got their start. Four teams, seven plays on each team. Two Beaters, one Seeker, one Keeper, and three Chasers. Everyone who is a Quidditch player knows the rules by heart. In the past the only team that was all boys were the Slytherin's due to their violent nature. But, for the past year they have had one player so dedicated to the sport that they would freak out if they had to miss one game. Missing one game would mean the end of the world and it would mean the death of the person who caused them to miss that one game.
"I'll kill you!" Jess was smashing Draco's head into the grass outside the Quidditch pitch with such force his nose had started to bleed. Since Draco's arm was "Broken" they didn't get to play the first game of the season. Zack and Blaise were just watching as Graham Montague, the new Slytherin Captain, marched down the field.
"Oi! Vance cut it out! If he dies we're not going to be able to play the next game either!" He pushed past the two boys and ripped Jess off of Draco.
"You twat, I've been working hard on my swing and you just had to break you're damn arm!"
Blaise ran over and helped Draco up off the ground with blood streaking down his face. Zack started to laugh as Blaise carried him up to the castle.
"Calm down will you! We'll play another day just calm down!" Graham shouted as he shook Jess.
Zack stopped laughing and walked over to the two, "I got her." he told Graham. Jess put her head on Zack's shoulder and sighed.
"He's such a git."
"I know kiddo, I know. But like Graham said, we'll get to play next time." They stood there for a minute then Jess started to shuffle towards the castle.
"Hey, don't leave me here alone!" Zack laughed as he walked after her. The sun started to rise from the night before. Star's disappeared and the blue started to spread over the night.
Katie was sitting in the back of the DADA's classroom waiting for Professor Lupin to come out of his office. Jess was running around the classroom pretending she was riding a broom out of the boredom of not being able to play. Katie was drawing a picture of a snitch flying and hitting Draco in the face. Finally the bell rang and Gryffindor/ Slytherin students walked in chatting. Jess ran around a few more times before sitting in the front, right next to Lupin's desk. "Jess what are you doing?" Katie asked as she lifted herself off her desk and lowered into the one next to Jess.
"I want to suck all the knowledge out of his teachings."
"That sounded WRONG!" Sierra laughed. She sat behind the two, "Katie aren't you suppose to be in Choir or something?"
"I have a free period today. And it's not just choir, it's toad singing."
"I thought it was that. Because regular singing would just be to small for a magical school." Sierra laughed, putting her feet up and taking a bite out of an apple.
Draco looked over at her and glared as the juice fell down from her lip to her chin. "You bitch." he whispered. Jess and Katie started to laugh as the door to Lupin's office flew open. Jess started to bounce up and down in her seat until a black cloak billowed down the stairs. Katie looked at him as she pulled a book from her bag.
"I'm screwed, this was my good class and now I'm going to have to make something!" Sierra grumbled.
Snape walked down then sat behind the desk. He pulled out the class roster and started to read off, "Malfoy, Granger, Longbottom, Weasley, Brown, Crabb, Goyle, Vance, Pieper, Coon, Lamer… something French, Gardner…" he went down the list. All saying here or what. The only one absent was Harry Potter.
"Where's Professor Lupin?" Jess asked, hand raised in the air.
"He is sick Ms. Vance. Today class we shall be learning about Werewolves."
Hermione Grangers hand shot into the air causing Sierra to fly off her seat in shock.
"We were learning about Red Caps though Professor."
Jess and Katie looked at each other in disbelief. Sierra sat back up and hit Hermione in the head with her apple causing Draco to gasp.
"Yes, you're all very behind…"
"Sorry I'm late Professor Lupin…" Harry was standing in the door way staring at Snape.
Katie giggled from behind her book as Jess started to laugh as Snape stood up from his Chair.
"As I just told Vance, he's sick. Sit down and let me get on with the lesson!" he snapped, "Know take your books out and turn to page 394."
Jess froze and looked up as if someone had shocked her spine with a cattle prod. She was staring at him with big eyes that shinned. Katie poked her on the cheek but it didn't help that Jess was frozen and staring at him. Finally Sierra grabbed her book and smacked Jess on the back of the head with it.
"What's wrong with you?" she whispered. "What?"
"You totally froze when he said that."
"Did I? I don't remember." Jess mumbled as she turned to the page.
To be continued! Always!
