Chapter 3

"I don't expect you will really understand the beauty of the softly simmering cauldron with its shimmering fumes, the delicate power of liquids that creep through human veins, bewitching the mind, ensnaring the senses....I can teach you how to bottle fame, brew glory and even put a stopper in death." Said Severus Snape, the potions master.

"Yes, Yes and Yes." Came two voices from the back of the room.

"Weasleys, come here now!"

"What did we do Snapples?" asked Fred.

"What did you call me?" Roared Snape, spittle flying everywhere.

"I heard Snapples sir." Said a scrawny Slytherin called Piers Polkiss.

"Thankyou, Polkiss. 50 points from Gryffindor."

"Moldywart!"

"And another 75 for rudeness, and a detention for using that name."

"What name? All I said was Moldywart."

"Hold your tongue, unless you would like to lose that too."

"Screw this." Said Fred, throwing down the silver knife he had been using to gut nulibs, large slug-like creatures. "I solemnly swear that I am up to no good."

"What are you doing?"

"Seeing where Snape is. Look at this!"

"What?"

"Look what's appeared."

"So? It's a picture of a wolf."

"It wasn't there before."

"Tap it with your wand." Said George. Fred took out his wand and tapped the tiny picture, at once a shabby looking boy appeared in front of them. The first thing they noticed was that the person seemed more than a ghost but less than a solid person.

"Go to the teacher's table and climb under it. Look up and you will find a Hogwarts crest with a stag, a rat, a wolf and a dog, tap it three times with your wand." And with that the boy disappeared.

"Might as well." Said both red heads together. Climbing under the table they both looked up and, sure enough, there was the crest. Fred tapped it three times.
