For Breaking 100 reviews, I will try update two chapters now instead of one.
So we will see what the Slytherins and Ravenclaws went through the first night
Note Ravenclaw will be done through as an OC, because I had a hard time trying to write in either Luna's or Cho's POV.
Note any names given, besides actual characters, are created from a random Name Generator
So before we start we need the disclaimer, now where did I put my copyrights,
Wait I don't own PJO, HOO, and HP, so I don't own there copyrights.
NOOOOOOOO
Gerald Lewis POV
It was my first year at Hogwarts, and I was really excited to be here. My older brother was in Hufflepuff, and my sister is also. I kind of wanted to be in there also, but alas I got Ravenclaw, I saw it coming. Unlike my brother and sister I loved reading, anything actually I already, book of spells grade 3. And I am a first year.
Well since I am in Ravenclaw, I now know that I am smart, hey sometimes it feels good to be reaffirmed that you are smarter than your siblings. My mom was a Ravenclaw and Dad was a Hufflepuff, she will be so proud to finally have another Ravenclaw in the family. My dad is a half-blood, while my mom is muggle born.
I followed the female prefect up to the dorms, she explained what the school was like; the moving staircases, each professor, and the classes.
She explained that to get into the Ravenclaw common room, you had to answer a question, we followed her to the west side of the castle, up a tower. We continued on till we were on the 5th floor I think. We stopped at a door with no knob, or keyhole, only a bronze eagle knocker.
The prefect walked up the knocker, and the eagle turned to him and said "A fisherman says 'What we caught, we threw away; what we didn't catch, we kept. What did we keep?*'"
The prefect rubs his chin contemplating for a moment before answering "Lice"
The eagle doesn't respond but the door opens up, and reveals a wide, circular room with a midnight blue carpet, arched windows hung with blue and bronze silks, and a domed ceiling painted with stars. There were also a bunch of bookcases in the common room, I knew I would spend a lot of time in the common room, reading one of these books if not something from the library.
The prefect points to towards the statue of Rowena Ravenclaw and says "The entrance to the dorms are besides the statue, boys on the left, girls on the right. If a boy tries to enter the girl's dorm, without permission, the door will not open, same goes for the girls. Now since classes start tomorrow, and we should get up early so we can be the first to get our schedules, I recommend getting to sleep now instead of later."
And with that he headed to the door on the left of the statue and walked in, off to bed. I couldn't wait for classes to start so I followed suit. Once past the door, there were more doors with Roman Numerals on them, Being a first year I head to the one with the Roman numeral I, or one, on it.
When I get inside I see several four posted beds, with silver and blue bed spreads, and drapes for privacy. I go over to the bed with my trunk in front of it, pull out my pajamas, and quickly changed. Do my nightly rituals, you know, brush teeth, set clothes out for next day, check over any assignments, and anything else I need to do before I go to bed.
I lay down, and allow the soft whip of the winds lull me to sleep. Wanting tomorrow to arrive so that I can start my first year at Hogwarts.
I was woken up from a mixture of screaming, shaking, and the sound of a horrible storm raging outside. I through on my slippers and run to the common room and find several other Ravenclaws already there. The room starts to shake violently, and I don't mean like fall on your ass violent, I mean destroy the castle by destroying the foundation violent. The winds outside seemed to pick up, and the room seemed to shake for a good couple of minutes. I hear a loud crash and see that one of the windows have been blown in. The shaking continues and the walls begin to crack, it looks like the tower is falling apart.
I look outside to see the storm is actually a hurricane, not a small, medium or large one, this one seems unnatural. I believe only someone with god-like abilities could of conjured or even created such a storm. What scares me is that I see a cyclone blast into one of the towers. I don't mean it rammed in, I mean it literally, like a hand reached in and flung a student out the window. At the same time Professor Flitwick, bust through the door. How a man soo small could make such a loud entrance I had to know.
But I was too distracted by the student flung out of a tower, until I see him start to slow down in his decent down to what I thought was inevitable death. I think that was the Arresto Momentum charm, the same charm that is used on quaffles so they fall slower, and players don't get hurt diving for them. Once the boy lands, rather roughly but softly on the ground, he jumps up and runs to the nearest door to get inside.
I turn to Professor Flitwick as he says "Everyone to the Great Hall now, Dumbledore has the situation under control."
If Dumbledore has the situation under control, I do not want to know what would have happened if he wasn't here.
We followed Flitwick and the prefects down to the great hall, when we get there, we see the Slytherins soaked, the Hufflepuffs encased in dirt, and the Gryffindors, like us seem mostly unharmed, except the one flung out the window who is soaked. The hall breaks into noise of people trying to figure out what is happening. I look around and notice the exchange students who creep me out.
I mean, they looked kind of creepy. One was scaly with black lips and sharp teeth, which looked like they were meant to rip through flesh. Another was covered in fur, had paw like hands, and had a tail. There was the one that looked reddish, with very pointy ears and a thin wire like tail. There was the girl that also had pointy ears, but with more of a round to them, and looked like she bathed in moonlight. There was a pale boy, who looked like death warmed over and sharp k-9s. A boy who looked like he was made of tree parts, like a transfiguration experiment gone wrong. There was another boy who had a beak, feathers, and if the rumors are true wings. The other two seemed the most normal, one had dark skin, I mean almost black, and white hair. While the other, also had dark skin, but what seemed like Indian, but different, and choppy blonde hair. They just don't seem natural, I know weird coming from a wizard, but even by wizard standards they are strange.
But the scaly boy, pale boy, red boy, and moon girl seem to be missing. The others notice to, but don't seemed worried I continue to look around but don't see the others, I think they are relieved that the storm has lightened up and that the castle has stopped shaking. When I look back at them, they seem to all be staring at one particular point, and have a mixture of worried and relieved looks on their faces. I follow their gazes and sitting at the Gryffindor table are the missing exchange students.
The scaly boy hugging on to the furry girl, as if he let go they would die, I mean seriously according to the ministry we have nothing to worry about. But my mom and dad don't agree and say I should still be weary, they believe Harry when he said you-know-who is back.
The two pale kids are giving such intense glares, that I am too scared to move, I mean if looks could kill everyone in the room would be dead. The red boy is also glaring but next to the other two he looks like a cute puppy trying to act tough.
I couldn't handle being under their intense glare, even if it wasn't directed at me, if it was I think I would have defecated myself. I try to distract myself by talking to some of the other Ravenclaw first years, but before I say anything a loud voice booms, definitely enhanced by magic, through the hall saying "SILENCE"
Draco POV
After Dumbledore dismissed us, I got to show the lucky few who can call themselves Slytherins to the dorms. I lead them down towards the Dungeons, I stopped in front of a wall, I turned to all the first years, seeing some that have potential to be my followers, and others who just don't belong.
I say "I am going to say this only once, the head of house is Professor Snape, to get into the common room you will have to say the password. The password will change every once in a while. The new password will be on the board in the common room. Now listen carefully because I am only going to say the password once."
I turn to the wall and say "Argentum , et Viridis" Or silver and green in Latin. As always the wall moves and reveals the common room.
Like always there is a slight green glow to the common room, from the window that exposes the lake, if you're unlucky you might see a hideous sea creature swim by. Why Hogwarts haven't gotten rid of those pesky, disgusting creatures in the lake I have no idea.
The common room has lots of low backed black and dark green button-tufted, leather sofas; skulls; and dark wood cupboards. It has quite a grand atmosphere, but also quite a cold one. Being my fifth year I am used to this.
Pansy turns to the new brats and says "The Common room extends to under the lake, the boys dorms are to the left and the girls are to the right. Now don't think of trying to go into the girls dorms, it is charmed so that if you try you get doused in lake water. Now you will get your schedules tomorrow from Professor Snape, so be on time to breakfast." With that she flings her hair over her shoulder and walks to her room.
I turn to the brats they are all bugged eyed and amazed at everything, I hope no mud-bloods ended up in this house. What am I saying? No mud-blood is good enough to get into this house, I would rather serve nine weeks detention than have a mud-blood in this prestigious house.
I walk over to the boy's room, and head to the door with five snakes etched into the door. When I get in I take the best bed, I mean the prefect should have the perfect bed. I change into my silver and green pajamas. I go to bed, I think I am going to enjoy this year especially since we have an actual decent DADA professor this year. I know that Umbridge and the Slytherins will get along swimmingly.
I was awoken when I was knocked out of my bed, my father will hear about this and whoever is responsible will regret ever crossing Draco Malfoy.
I look around and notice everyone is rushing to the common room, being prefect I rush forward and push everyone out of my way. As I step into the common room, the entire room shakes, the glass window between us and the lake cracks. Another vicious earthquake happens and along with the glass the walls crack. Water starts to pour in through the cracks in the window.
An even more violent shake happens and the glass brakes, water crashing into the common room, but instead of being swept away by the water and drowned, But the water seemed to have a mind of its own, and flew, I meant literally flew towards the ceiling. It smashed against the ceiling so hard that the room shook, water was flying everywhere. The water seemed to back up and rush forward again to break through the ceiling, like it was trying to get to something on an upper floor.
The door burst open, and Snape rushed in, in a loud voice, that still carried his venomous way of speaking he said "Everyone to the great hall right now."
As we all started to the exit, the water seemed to lose its power and fell on top of everyone, soaking everyone. My father will hear about this, Dumbledore will be kicked out of Hogwarts, maybe even have his wand broken for putting my life in danger. Snape yelled "OUT NOW"
Not wanting to be drowned I rushed out of the common room and up the stairs to the great hall. Once in there, Madame Pomfrey, was rushing around to make sure that no one is seriously injured. A couple of the other professors are going around and doing drying charms on the Slytherins, and cleaning charms on the Hufflepuffs.
I turn to Crabble and Goyle, and start telling them how I am going to tell my father about this and make sure someone takes responsibility for this. Maybe instead of blaming Dumbledore we can blame those disgusting half-breeds and rid this school of those disgusting creatures. But I doubt that would work since they don't have the power to even do a basic levitation charm. One of the easiest things we learn here at Hogwarts.
While discussing with Crabble and Goyle, Dumbledore's voice booms through the hall saying one works "SILENCE"
After everyone quiets down, and gives him their undivided attention, he continues, not as enhanced by magic "Now then, as to what has happened and what has caused it is still under investigation." He said it like he knew what caused it but doesn't want to share with us, I mean I am a prefect I have the right to know. Maybe Snape will tell me later, or I could get the new Professor tell me.
Being pulled out of my thoughts as Dumbledore continues "No one was injured, thank the gods" that was weird "For now, I would like the fifth, sixth and seventh years to go with the head of their houses to help clean and fix the dorms and common rooms. Except for the Slytherin house, only sixth and seventh years shall go." What did he not think we were good enough to do magic to fix our dorm rooms.
He waits for the groaning to stop before he continues "The reason being that the entire common room is under water, and I do not want Professor Snape having more students to worry about whether they did the bubble head charm correctly or not."
As the 5th, 6th, and 7th, years get up to leave Dumbledore coughs to signify he isn't done just yet. "Prefects shall stay here and help some of the Professors take care of the younger students. Now then, Percy would you mind helping Professor Snape clean out the Slytherin common room and deal with any mer-people, or any other sea-creature that could of gotten into the castle."
The scaly exchange monster looks up, he has a broken look in his eyes, but releases a sigh, and nods that he will do it. I scream out "What, why are you allowing this… Half-breed into a common room he doesn't belong to. I am pretty sure that the Slytherins and Professor Snape can handle the clean-up themselves. They don't need help from some American."
Dumbledore seemed to have an angry look in his eyes, but that was only there for a second. His eyes softened, and held the twinkle that he knew something we didn't. He then said "Mr. Malfoy, as regards to why I am sending Mr. Jackson, he is part Merman, so he has no need to do a charm to breath and underwater and help Professor Snape if there is any emergency. He will not be told the password and will just follow Professor Snape to the Slytherin common room. Also, he is fluent in Merperson and will be able to get them to get out of the common room if they showed up. And now for that outburst ten points from Slytherin."
I don't say anything after that because if I did, I know I would be in a lot more trouble than just losing points. I watch some students and professors file out of the Great hall, that cat girl ran up to talk to Dumbledore, and the fish-boy is following behind Snape talking to him. I run up to Warren Burns, a 6th year Slytherin and tell him to keep an eye on the half-breed.
That is it for this chapter, as I said earlier another one will be up as quickly as I can for breaking 100 reviews.
