Bit by bit. Spitwad by... well, whatever.

Or, maybe she could steal one of the house elves on her last day.

But, by the looks of the silverware, and the spoon she had just LICKED, it didn't seem there were any house elves in the castle.

And why was she thinking about THAT? She was DYING! She.. was not drinking out of that goblet of water. The flailing that she hadn't realized she had been doing stopped, and she stared, long and hard at Evelyn. Until she had a brilliant idea!

Pfft, all her ideas were brilliant!

"QUICK! Spray water in my mouth!" Destiny knew her friend had her wand, she had seen it. "Hurry!" Closing her eyes, she opened her mouth, waiting for the water.

As she waited for the water that would SAVE her LIFE, Destiny peeked one of her eyes open when she heard the familiar voice of Marilyn. And if she wasn't about to die from licking the spoon the first time, she would have done it again just to show her that she had.

Only if Marilyn offered to give her a galleon, of course. And maybe she'd lick a plate instead. That spoon was gross.

Closing her eye shut once more, Destiny nodded her head and made a poor attempt of saying 'yes' in answer to her question. Water. Now, please!

OOPS!

Something similar to a ton of bricks felt like it hit Sierra in the stomach, and she had to sit down quickly to keep the room from possibly spinning. She didn't dare look around her, because she feared if she did, she'd find all eyes on her or the situation going on around her. She simply nodded in understanding. Office. Detention. Why not? Everything else in her life had gone wrong...

She looked away and gave the other Slytherin girl (Had she even mentioned her name yet?) an intense glare. "It's spit and gum," Sierra said, answering Professor Lafay. "She dumped it in my hair." It was humiliating, really. "I just, ...I just want to go get it out."

By this point, all Sierra could do was settle for the most intense of glares. Lafay had arrived, and because of that, Sierra was pretty much stuck between a rock and a hard place. There was so much she wanted to say to Candy Mountain Girl, but it'd have to wait until another day and time. "Likewise," she said, meaning she knew where the girl slept, as well.

...the tattle tale! Sierra's jaw dropped in shock as the girl proceeded to tattle on her for stealing candy--an act she actually had no proof on whatsoever. Had she seen Sierra take it? Nooo. All she knew was that she was missing candy, but whose to say one of the girl's friends from the train compartment hadn't taken it instead? Hmm? "...but she has no proof!" Sierra shot back. "She put her filthy hand on my chin and demanded I spit my gum out! So when I did, the spit from my mouth came with it, and then..."

Sierra paused and lowered her voice. Now school wasn't even working out for her. One hour into her return, and she was already facing an office visit and a threat of detention. "...she dumped the spit and gum in my hair."

Harlow trembled as one of the professor descended on the Slytherin table. Were they all in trouble for the gum throwing. Was she going to stuck them in the dungeons? She hid behind Tori to get away from the gaze of the Dragon Lady.....

Is it just him or Hogwarts is a little rowdy this year?

Then Kimalia did something so unlike her, it was so unlike her she felt it would be the only way to save Sierra. "And the gum that hit you, was from me." Kimalia then took out remaining gum that she bough for herself on the train from her pocket. "See, I have her gum and was about to pass it to her when I well- missed." Kimalia smiled sheepishly in a guilty looking way.

If I were you, I'd tread lightly when you're around her." He wanted to make it perfectly clear to Dia that the professor wasn't one to be messed around with.
