'Weasley. What did I tell you to write your essay on?' Snape scowls down at me.
I arch my eyebrow at him.
'Weasley.' I glare up at him.
'Surely you ought to know. You did assign us the essay after all.'
'20 points from Gryffindor, Weasley.'
'OH dear, woe is me.' Snape turns to me and looks down on me and I yawn purposely. Becks and Colin look at me with huge surprise etched on their faces.
'Cheek like that will not be tolerated in my class.'
'Really? So how come Nott can say the exact same thing? Isn't this supposed to be a fair and equal school or do you somehow get to bend the rules?' Suddenly the whole class is watching me and Snape with a mixture of shock hatred and awe.
'Detention.'
'Just what I always wanted.'
Snape places both arms either side of my desk and stare straight into my eyes.
'Weasley, you should take the time to watch yourself-'
'Or what? Someone will set Voldemort on me? Been there done that.'
The class gasps.
'You may think being in the Ministry last year gives you a sense of supremacy, Weasley. But you have no idea what awaits out there.'
'In case you've forgotten, I do know. Like I said, been there done that.'
'Well if you have then you can be the first to go under the Imperious curse. Which is what we are going to be doing today.'
Just my luck.
I get up and stomp over in front of his desk.
I hold my wand in my hand tightly.
I toss my hair back and get ready for the worst.
Suddenly all thought is wiped from my head.
I feel calm... I think I'm floating...
Why am I here?
Go and sing the school song backwards whilst doing a handstand.
Sing the what backwards? And whilst doing what? I feel myself step forward, humming slightly and bedding over, before stopping.
Why am I doing this?
Go and sing the school song backwards whilst doing a handstand.
Hmmm... that seems a bit pointless really.
Go and sing the school song backwards whilst doing a handstand!
I'm not really up for doing that thanks.
Go and sing the school song backwards whilst doing a handstand!!
No, I don't want to. I can't sing very well and I'm wearing a skirt so no.
Go and sing the school song backwards whilst doing a handstand!!
I SAID NO!!
Then suddenly I'm trying not to do a handstand and do one at the same time so I end up flipping over. And I squawk trying not to sing as well as sing at the same time.
The Slytherins burst into laughter at the sight of me sitting on the floor coughing slightly and rubbing my back.
I get up and look at Snape smirking. He rolls his eyes and calls Nott forward.
Well fine!
I flick my hair back and stride back up to my desk at the back in between Colin and Becks.
They both grin at me and Colin imitates a chicken quietly and I smack him.
'Shaddup!' I hiss at him, poking at the DA book sitting on my desk with annoyance.
Becks starts laughing and I look up.
Nott is dancing a jig in the middle of the classroom!!
I wish I had a camera!!
Oh wait.
I don't need one of those.
I have a Colin!
I sneak a glance sideways to see him grinning after tapping his wand several times.
'Black! You, next.'
Becks gets up casually.
'Black.'
'I'm coming I'm coming. Hold your equines.' She flicks her hair out which shimmers in the sliver of spring light that is allowed enter the classroom.
I amuse myself but casually watching Nott's legs move as if a music beat is running through them.
That and the fact it's causing him to hit his knees of the desk and the Slytherins on either side of him.
I look away to find Becks yelping oddly.
Is she trying to be a dog?
I look at Snapes face and back again to Becks.
Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh shit!!
I look at Colin but he just looks baffled. Most of the Slytherins and guffawing at her.
Oh this is so unfair!! To complete humiliate a student over her father?
That's lower then low.
I guess Snape really loves to torture us.
Suddenly Becks straightens up and runs right of the class.
The whole class is staring at the door.
Then she bursts back in.
She stands in front of Snape nose to hooked nose.
Then the door bangs open once more.
Ron is standing there quite bizarrely.
Becks turns to look at him.
'Whoops!! Wrong class, my bad!!' He shrugs and smiles crookedly at the pair in front of him.
My brother... such an idiot.
Then naturally I continue the family stupidity by crashing backwards into the wall.
Just my luck.
Becks is still panting oddly when we are sitting in the Great Hall.
I hit her on the head with The Quibbler.
Sure, some of the stuff is mostly the rambles of insane witches and wizards who clearly spent too much time indoors as children but its better then The Daily Ministry Bullcrap.
I need to think of better insults.
I'm beginning to lose my touch.
Meanwhile in my corner of odd occurrences I keep humming and having to hit the side of my head.
Then Harry plonks himself onto the seat next to me.
'What's up with you lot?' Ron asks as he sits down.
'I keep starting to sing and I have detention tonight.' I growl stabbing a potato furiously.
'Sing?' Harry asks trying to cover his laughter.
'Imperious. Snape. All manner of hideous things.'
'Right.' Becks barks and we turn to her.
'I have a good mind to kick his ass.' She mutters whilst spearing a piece of steak.
Harry looks at Hermione and Ron confused. Colin hugs her awkwardly.
'Anyways... I thought you weren't supposed to be out yet Ron?' Rons' ear blaze and he rubs the back of his neck looking rather uncomfortable.
I frown and look at him; Rons' ears look like they're on fire. He wheezes slightly and suddenly the door crashes open and Madam Pomfrey is standing in the gap looking well...
Well murderous.
Which is ironic because she helps save many people's lives.
Oh irony, thou art a confabulating incident.
She marches over and only the students with enough common sense at least try to vamoose before she reaches Ron.
Her prey.
Harry and I move down the bench as much as is possible.
We have both been subjects of her wrath before and intend on making sure that stays in the PAST!!
Nowhere near my future!
Hermione looks like she trapped between a rock and a hard place.
Though thinking about that phrase...
Isn't a rock already a hard place?
So what is the point?
'Ronald Weasley!! Back to the Hospital Wing immediately!!'
Ron gulps and looks to Hermione who appears to be acting nonchalantly, whistling and all.
'Well, the thing is... That I'd much rather...' He stammers and wilts under Madam Pomfrey.
I glance at the Staff table to find both Hagrid and Dumbledore chuckling merrily at Ron's' plight.
'I think it's best if you leave with Poppy Mr. Weasley but never the less, 50 points to Gryffindor for finally managing to escape form Poppy's Wing.'
Ron is dragged from the Great Hall bowing slightly.
'How did he manage that? I've been trying every single bloody year!!' Harry says watching him leave.
'Maybe he had a strategy. Ron is good at that.' I say watching my brother disappear through the door.
'Damn.' Harry utters after a few quiet moments.
'Huh?'
'I thought we had out keeper back.'
'Instead of ego over there?' I point over at McLaggen.
'Yeah.' Harry looks completely put out and I pat his shoulder.
'The match is tomorrow isn't it?' Hermione asks whilst reading an article in The Daily Prophet.
Myself and Harry groan.
Loudly.
Tomorrow is going to be a fun foiled and joyous day.
Oh thank goodness for ye olde sarcasm.
I duck and clutch the quaffle close to my chest.
Bloody battering bludgers.
'And there's Ginny Weasley of Gryffindor... I like her... She's quite nice.'
I still can't believe that Luna of all people is commentating.
Sure I love her and all... but she is completely stark raving bonkers.
I fly straight for the Hufflepuff Keeper.
Lord knows McLaggen is screwing things up for us.
We are already down 50 points because of that ass.
Suddenly a bludger catches my leg and I lose the quaffle.
Shite!!
I head up towards the other end of the pitch as fast as I can push my broom. I nearly fly off the other end when McLaggen stops in front of me.
'What the hell was that??' He demands of me whilst I stare at the quaffle sailing through the right hoop.
'What the FUCK do you THINK YOU'RE DOING??' I scream at him.
'Get the fucking quaffle and throw it out to the rest of the team. Which you are on!! A TEAM!! It's not just you!! Do your bloody part you prick!!' I scream and head out to Dean and Zela, shaking my head and grinding my teeth furiously.
We all share significant looks and I see Harry glaring at McLaggen from a spot above us.
Then the quaffle comes flying out and Dean just barely grasps it.
We swiftly start moving into the various formations that we've been trying to perfect.
McLaggen has the annoying habit of getting in the way of everything.
Must use some of the WWW stuff on him.
I wonder how cocky he'd be after being given some Sing-a-long-bubble gum?
Everything he'd say would be sung in a falsetto desperately out of tune voice.
I laugh to myself at that image as I toss the quaffle and it sails though the middle ring.
WOOT!! I high five Zela as we charge back to tackle the onslaught of the Hufflepuff chasers and bludgers.
And apparently McLaggen.
So much for teamwork.
'Ooooh look a cloud in the shape of a Crumble Horned Snorcack... Which shows that one is here to support the teams playing.'
Luna I love you but honestly...
I chance a glance at the commentator's booth and see McGonagall with a hand over one side of her face looking as though she wasn't sure whether to laugh or pull the microphone from Luna.
If I was in her position I wouldn't be so sure which route to take either.
'Looks like Harry is having an argument with his keeper... maybe it's a clever ploy...' Luna dreamily waffles on. I turn to look over at the goalposts and sure enough McLaggen has is actually trying to show the beaters how to hit the quaffle.
I don't know whether to laugh or cry.
Harry is bright red yelling at him to do his job as McLaggen swings the bat.
OH MERLIN!!
McLaggen has whacked Harry on the head!!
I'M GOING TO KILL HIM!!
I WANT RON BACK!!
Did I just say that??
Oh Merlins pants!! Harry's slipping off his broom!!
Somebody catch our Seeker!!
He's falling!!
HARRY!!
Oh thank jebus!!
I managed to finish!! Sorry about the delay and shortness of this chapter... I've had so much trouble with it and I'm not sure but I thought it best to work on it!!
