They were all dangerous. Even if the ones that were supposedly NOT dangerous were, in Willow's opinion. Dangerous and evil, with secret desires to take over the world and rule the human race.
Good lord, she was beginning to lose her mind.
"I hope we beat them." And with THEM she meant the rest of the classmates. She wanted THOSE points. Granted, this wasn't Quidditch or anything, but thanks to her competitive nature, Willow wanted the price that was going to be give to the ones who managed to get more coins and whatever it was that Professor Morgand had hidden.
"Beat who?" Rachel asked distractedly as she surveyed the class with narrowed eyes as spotting a few Ravenclaw first years talking.
Stupid kids, they're going to lose us points! She blinked suddenly as she realised she knew exactly who Willow was talking about, and chuckled.
"Oh, yeah, me too - or if we don't, then at least a pair of Ravenclaws," she replied with a firm nod of her head, still shooting death glares at the two babblers. In her opinion, winning the House Cup this year was just even more important than any other year because she wanted to prove to herself that she could multi-task properly - get 'O's in all her OWLs as well as be a good Prefect and make sure that students did their best, earned points and won the House Cup.
Professor Morgan's going to see them... she thought and then groaned as her thoughts came true. The teacher had just taken off five points for chattering. She folded her hands over her chest and pouted slightly as she wondered how on earth she was supposed to achieve her goal if people insisted on not following the rules...
