THE REVEALENCE OF THE PHOENIX

Today. My second day. The day all my classes start.

And, of coerce, I (the snape girl. Thanks Ron.) had class with Snape.

Just my luck.

I was, as always, the first one out of bed, the first one in the Great Hall, and the first one to Potions. I think snape was surprised to see me so early. He probably thought no one wanted to be in the same room as him. He was probably right.

I sat down at the most concealed table, the one hidden in the most darkness, the one that had the most shadows falling across it. The one that could conceal me.

Then, I opened the book I had carried with me, and began to read.

When the rest of the class had filed in, bean lectured on the potion of the day, gotten the materials they needed, and had begun brewing, I had still not been seen, accept from Snape.

We were brewing burn-healing potion. What a coincidence. I quickly found out that I was the best brewer in this class. I was already done with the potion, and had brewed it perfectly. As usual.

When I thought Snape wasn't looking, I silently and wandlessly conjured a flask, poured some of the completed potion into it, stoppered it, and slipped it into my pocket. I looked up to see Snape looking straight at me. Oh Crap.

"Miss Isabel, please stay after class," Snape said.

Triple crap.

Now everyone knew I was there.

Shit.

After class, I stayed right where I was . If Snape wanted to do something to me, he would have to come over here to do it.

I sure hoped he didn't have a reason to come over here.

"Miss Isabel, why did you attempt to steal some of your own potion?" he asked.

"Professor, you do know I don't care, don't you?"

I guess nobody had stood up to him before. Lucky me.

"Detention, Miss Isabel, with Filch."

I just shrugged, and again portrayed that I didn't care in the least.

"Detention with me, miss Isabel," he tried again.

I gave the same response.

I hoped I was pissing him off.

"DETENTION WITH THE HEADMASTER!" he shouted.

Same exact response. This time, I told him something.

"You do realize, you can't punish me? You can't expel me either."

"And why might that be?"

Slowly I stood up. Then, I opened my wings.

My great, fiery wings.

Phoenix wings, to be exact.

That shut him up.

"I'm sure you wouldn't want me to be expelled, or leave for some other reason, and go and join Voldimort, now would you?"

And with that, I folded my wings, turned on my heel, and left.

A/N: please review! Also, something that you might want to listen to while reading this:

Heart of courage: two steps from hell

I thought it went well with the story.

Feel free to PM me.

And as always, none of the characters are mine, except Isabel.

REVIEW!
