Sorry for the Welsh jokes. At least they don't have anything to do with sheep.
Lucy had only just gotten back to Hogwarts and of course something exciting had already happened. A new student had just arrived and there was a large crowd of girls trying to get a glimpse of him. At the front of the crowd was none other that Neon, who'd already made her thoughts on this new boy well known.
"KEITH IS SOOOOOO HOT!" squealed Neon.
" NO HE ISN'T, HE LOOKS LIKE A PILE OF DRAGON DUNG!" Ellie hollered back.
"Whatever. You better get used to him because we're going out sometime. I just asked him and he said yes!"
Lucy and Veronica exchanged looks and then turned to look at Keith.
He really wasn't that attractive. He was short and he looked like what a male version of Ke$ha might look like after a night of wild partying.
"what kind of a name is Keith anyway?" Veronica said. Lucy and her started laughing, but stopped immediately as Keith began to walk towards them.
Lucy and Veronica wondered if he had heard them laugh at his name and he looked kind of scary when he walked so they grabbed hands and squeezed. But luckily he passed right by them and started heading towards Neon, who was still arguing with Ellie.
He whispered something in Neon's ear and handed her a piece of paper.
Lucy and Veronica rushed over just as Neon was reading the letter.
"what does it say? what does it say?" Lucy and Veronica said at the same time as the jumped up and down.
Neon face went pale, well paler than usual that is, but then turned into a huge smile.
"OMG HE ASKED ME TO GO TO AN MCR CONCERT WITH HIM!" neon screamed.
"OMG HE TOTALLY LIKES YOU" the rest of them squealed with excitement and group hugged each other right then and there in the dinning hall.
Even Ellie had forgotten about Keith's sketchyness and joined in the excitement. After all, getting asked to go to an MCR concert was kind of a big deal.
"it says 'Hey Neon, I know we just met but I think you're really hot and I was wondering if you wanted to go to and MCR concert with me tonight at Hogsmead. yours sincerely, Keith". The girls all decided that they should go chill in the room of requirement and help Neon get ready for the MCR concert. Not like she had to do much anyways, Neon appearance was flawless. Just like the others.
With their long silky hair trailing behind them and with smiles on their faces they skipped up the stairs and headed straight to the room of requirement.
Upon arriving they realized that it wasn't called the room of requirement for nothing. The room was fully equipped with a salon style chair and mirror. As well as tables, racks and shelves which were absolutely packed with makeup, jewlery, and clothes which were all neon colors. While Neon got busy with picking her outfit, Ellie made her way over to the starbucks machine (yes, the room had a starbucks machine) and made double chocolate chip frappachinos for everyone. They all had so much fun helping Neon get ready. By the end she looked like a totally hot ultimate MCR fan. Amidst all the excitement Lucy, Veronica, and Ellie did their hair and makeup too, so together they all looked so beautiful it was ridiculous.
After seeing off Neon, Lucy, Veronica and Ellie started making their way towards the library. They still hadn't forgot about the chest of powers, and they were determined to learn more about this mystical chest. On they're way they passed by two slytherin boys. Normally they would have just waled by but all three of them definitely heard them say Neon's name, so the hid bind a classroom door and listened closely.
"Oh yeah that Keith guy said he's going to take Neon to the MCR concert and get her really drunk, and...yeah you know"
one of the boys said.
"seriously man! well who could blame him really. Neon's hot, and so are her friends. Like I would so try to get Lucy drunk, or Ellie, or Veronica. Everyone knows they're the hottest girls at hogwarts"
The girls exchanged looks of astonishment and ran as fast as they could towards Hogsmead, Their friend was in trouble!
They got to the concerts in no less than five minutes. They were all short of breath from running, but the roses in their cheeks just made them look more beautiful. The security guard let them in even though they didnt have tickets!
Lucy scanned the crowd frantically. Finally her eyes fell upon Neon who was jumping up and down to the music with Keith hovering close by.
Lucy pushed her way through the crowd towards Neon with Ellie and Veronica following closely behind. As soon as they were close enough they grabbed Neon's hand and pulled her close to them so they could tell her what they heard the slytherin boys say.
Neon didn't want to believe them, but she knew her friends would never lie to her, so she followed them towards the gate leaving Keith look like like a loser all by himself.
"I had my doubts about trusting a Welsh boy, but I thought he was different" Neon sobbed.
They all comforted her and gave her hugs, they hated to see their beloved friend so upset.
Hand in hand they took a short cut through the forest to get back to Hogwarts.
Most people were scared of the forest but they were brave girls. Hogwarts was withing their sight now, and they would have gotten there in no time had it not been for what happened next.
No one was quite sure what happened exactly, but one minute they were standing in the forest and the next they were falling through the ground!
The landed in what appeared to be a cave! They pulled out their wands and began exploring.
Lucy walked deeper in to the cave, she had a feeling that this place had known powerful magic and she was drawn to it. Suddenly, Lucy tripped on a rock she had not seen and fell on the caves damp floor.
"LUCY!" they all exclaimed as they rushed to help her. But they were stopped in their tracks before they could assist her. Because right there before them was something that they had all seen pictures of in their books, but never thought they would see in real life. THEY HAD FOUND THE CHEST OF POWERS.
