 Mischievous Niffler
"Flying weasels?" Kitty repeated Rachel and Haddie's words, her eyes widening as she imagined them. It seemed odd that Professor Flamsteed didn't believe them - because would that really be so strange compared to many of the magical creatures around Hogwarts? But at least they both seemed to be okay, and since the lesson was starting Kitty didn't have time to ask any more questions. She ran into the girl's tent and quickly changed into the awkward uniform, examined herself in her hand mirror, and then ran back out to answer the first question.
Kitty raised her hand to give an answer of her own. "Many muggles throw garbage out of their cars when they are driving, and that can DEFINITELY have a negative impact on the environment. And plastic is worse than paper because animals could choke on it. Besides, it just makes everything look ugly when there's garbage lying everywhere." Kitty had some experience with this because she noticed that he edge of her yard where the grass met the street was always covered in paper plates and plastic cups. Neither she nor her mother ever littered but muggles driving by in cars always seemed to think their yard was a good place to throw their garbage. It really annoyed Kitty (who first discovered this when she was looking for worms), and recently before going off to Hogwarts she had started picking up all the garbage and throwing it away. They did something like in Muggle Studies too.
She raised her hand again. "I've never portkeyed before today. Where are we going?" This was going to be really cool, she just knew it. |
