Chapter 19
Testing and Meetings
Last question finally! So far I have answered 49 short answer or essay questions on everything from goblin rebellions to evil dark wizards. I streched my tired arms out, then looked down at the last question, well essay.
50. Write a short essay giving the details of the European Witchburnings. Please include the most famous withces and wizards of the time, and the various ways they escaped.
Thankfully, I had studied all of this earlier, I know a lot about witchburnings, mostly American, but I know European as well. I wrote a nicely written eassy on the the subject, turned my essay in, then went to sleep on my desk, we weren't allowed to leave until everyone was done.
While napping I had the strangest dream while I was napping. I was running through the forest again as a leopard. Running, running, and running along the forest trails, I realized I was on a familiar trail. Every couple of feet their was a splash of silvery liquid that looked like unicorn blood. I came upon a clearing, the same clearing from not long ago,this time there was no Harry or Firenze, just the cloaked figure over the dead unicorn. I walked into the cleaing, I couldn't stop myself, I was also my human self when I walked into that clearing. The cloaked figure stood, moved away from the unicorn, and walked towards me. Then he spoke...
"Hello Adonia." It was a male's voice, it sounded familiar, like I have heard the voice before, a lot, I couldn't place it. "We are going to get to know each other child, soon, real soon." He started to walk closer to me, when he was a few feet away, he reached up with his hand to take hold of the hood.
Before his face was revield to me, a shock of icy feeling raced along my body, I woke instantly.
"Miss Zeak, the rest of the class has finished their exams and went off to celebrate the end of testing. I happened to have already read through your exam, since you finished a bit before everyone else, I was quite supprised, it was quite good. Have a nice summer."
"Oh, thank you Professor Binns. You have a noce summer too." I quickly gatherd my belongings and left the class room. I had enough time to go get lunch before I had to meet with Professor Quirrell, I really hope I'm not in trouble.
Lunch went by rather quickly, most people were rushing through it so that they coild get outside to enjoy the rare bit of sun we have today. I decided to join them, at least until supper time, I would havd to eat real quick so I could go to the meeting.
Walking by a window on my way to the professor's office, I saw Harry, Ron, and Hermione out on the school lawn, it looked as if they were discussing something important. They really have become inseprable since Halloween night. Shrugging, I continued on my way to my meeting with Professor Quirrell.
I knocked on his door and waited for his stuttered reply. Getting the ok to come in to his office, I walked in and took the seat the professor waved me to.
"Helhellhello Miss Zeazeak. Ththank you for comomoming. Your professors andnd I have dededecided that you cocould tttest to move uhuhup two yeyears inssstead of jusst one. Iff you would follow mmme, I will ttake yoyou to the tttesst."
I guess my act of playing dumber than I was, wasn't very good. Of course, I only acted in class, all my papers, essays, potions, and tests I did my best on, my parents would be disappointed in me otherwise. I just nodded and followed Professor Quirrell into the hallway towards my year skipping test. I never knew Hogwarts did this, they didn't offer the test to Hermione or everyone would have heard about it. We stoped at a very familiar looking door.
"Professor, you mean my test it the three headed dog? What am I supposed to do with it?"
"Ah, ssso you kknow that it iss a ttthree headed ddog? Sssee that'ss whyy you are tttaking the tttest, it iss becccause yyou are sso sssmart. Ttthere are aactttualy quite a ffew tttest after ttthe ddog, iif you can gget tthrough tthem all, you get to mmove up ttwo yyears. Bby the wway, Flufffy the ddog likkes mussic." With that little hint, he unlocked the door and we moved in so I could take the test.
I know this part is a bit short, but I wanted to have Adonia's "test' to all be in one part. Don't forget to rate. And, Thank you all for reading my story ^.^
