8. Smells Like Cheese

It was a simple dare and Max never ever wimped out of one.

Ever.

So what if he was just released from detention the day before just because he broke a stupid tea pot in the Potion Master's stinky office. It was an accident!

Whatever.

But now all eyes at the Ravenclaw table were on him.

It was time.

Max stood up slowly and climbed onto the table. He adjusted his tie and then cupped his hands around his mouth.

"KAZIMERIZ SMELLS LIKE CHEESE!"

He dropped his hands and placed them on his hips.

"And that's how it's done."

Instead of applause, all he heard were groans coming from the Ravenclaw table as the sapphires vanished from the House Points Hour Glass.

Someone tapped on his shoulder and Max spun around, expecting to have Rex punch him in the stomach. Instead, two inches away from his face was the very displeased Professor Valon Kazimeriz.

Not good. Not good at all.

Getting punched by Rex was much more enjoyable.
