Take Two
"All right, class, today we'll be studying unicorns," Professor Grubby-Plank announced cheerfully, leading them to an enclosure with a herd of unicorns penned within. She briefly explained that unicorns have an aversion to males, causing most of the males in the class to sigh.
"Girls, step forward!" she added, ending her speech.
Umbridge, who was overseeing the class since Professor Grubby-Plank was still new, nodded approvingly. Unicorns. That was the kind of class she liked. Cute, innocent, safe and most importantly Ministry-approved, totally unlike that half-giant before.
Seeing the rest of the girls crowded around the unicorns, she too approached one, reaching out to pet it.
The unicorn abruptly reared back, bounding away from Umbridge with a terrified neigh. The entire herd of unicorns stiffened at the sound. Then, as one, they bolted back into the Forest, leaping over the enclosure fence in their haste to get away.
Umbridge stared in shock after them, hand still uselessly outstretched. She did not even notice Colin snap a photograph of her.
Professor Grubby-Plank turned to regard Umbridge sternly. "Unicorns only behave that way if a male with clear intentions to hurt them approaches. Is there something you wish to tell us, Professor Umbridge?"
Umbridge spluttered.
Behind her back, Ginny smirked and pocketed the spray bottle filled with angry bear pheromones.
