| “Seeing as this is sixth year, this is a very serious class. Any fooling around and you will be out of this class before you can say ‘he did it.” Professor McGonagall said, staring at the class with stern eyes. Amy shifted uncomfortably in her seat and glanced at Dan and Brian. She couldn’t help but wonder what she would do if they got her, or themselves, thrown out of this class. “Today we will be beginning to review how to transform parts of ourselves. Your first lesson in this will be to transform a partner’s eyebrows to the color blue. I have found that people are sometimes more prone to make mistakes this way, so I will be watching you all very carefully. Please get into groups of two.”
Amy turned right away to Molly, knowing she would be eyebrowless in seconds if she paired herself with Dan or Brian. Molly apparently had had the same idea and was looking at her expectantly. Amy raised an eyebrow and she nodded.
“Now that you have found partners, please face each other and decide who will try first.” Professor McGonagall said.
“I’ll go,” Molly said, with a glance at Hermione. “If that’s ok with you?”
“That’s perfectly fine with me.” Amy said, with a small smile. Grasping her bracelet under her cloak, Amy felt comforted.
“Now, move your wand in the way you would to levitate something.” Professor McGonagall said. “The spell is Amveada. You should remember this from the end of last year. I will be walking around the room while you practice.”
“Oh great, I just know I’m going to mess up now…” Muttered Molly as Professor McGonagall walked their way.
“Don’t worry about it!” Amy said through her teeth, her grip on her bracelet tightening.
Molly pointed her wand at Amy’s face, saying “Amveada” with about as much feeling as a dead person. Amy could tell by the look on Molly’s face that nothing whatsoever had happened.
“Now Mrs. Setler, try that again with more feeling.” Professor McGonagall said before glancing around the room and seeing Harry Potter with bright blue eyebrows and a beaming Hermione.
“Good job Mrs. Granger, thirty points to Gryffindor!” Professor McGonagall said, turning back to Amy who was staring at Hermione. “Are you ready to try again?” She prompted.
“Yes, I think I am…” Molly said. She assessed Amy for a moment before crying “Amveada!” Amy felt a faint presence on her face and then it was gone.
“Wonderful job Mrs. Setler, keep up the good work.” Professor McGonagall said before turning to Ron Weasley and Dean Thomas who seemed to be having so difficulties; Ron’s eyebrows were now thick and curly.
“My turn I guess…” Amy said, forcing herself to let go of her bracelet. “Ready?” She asked Molly, who nodded. Lifting her wand, Amy cried “Amveada!” She was pleased to see Molly’s eyebrows turn a nice shade of purple.
“I thought they were supposed to be blue.” Brian said, gesturing to Molly’s eyebrows.
“I know, but purple is prettier.” Amy said, laughing and turning Brian’s eyebrows yellow. Amy stood back and looked Brian over. “Yellow makes you look weird.” She decided, turning them back.
A few minutes later the class ended and Amy, Molly, Brian, and Dan walked to the great hall for dinner. After they had all eaten, they went up to the common room.
“You know… I think I’m going to go to bed.” Brian said, yawning falsely. Amy looked at him, wondering what was up. “I was thinking; let’s meet back here at midnight and do a little exploring. What do you guys think?”
“Sure, I’m up for something exciting.” Amy said smiling. Dan and Molly nodded.
“Ok, I’ll see you guys in a few hours then.” Brian said with a wink, crossing the common room and going up the staircase to his dorm.
“I think I’m going to join him if were getting up so early, night.” Dan said, fallowing Brian.
“What do you think Molly, early to bed?” Amy asked because Molly was staring at the dark stairwell Dan and Brian had just disappeared up.
“Yea…” Molly said faintly. Amy got up and headed to their dorm, wondering what would happen tonight. |
