"My summer was great!" He said happily. "I got to spend a lot of time with my parents who normally have to work like all the time, and I got to hang out with my friends a lot." He listened about her summer. It wasn't busy, it sounded peaceful. "That sounds nice." he said. he took a look around the cozy hut. She had a nice set-up here at the school. She got to have her own little area alone away from everybody else, and got to take care of all the creatures she wanted. She was so lucky.

Lucy walked down the pathway leading to Professor Morgan's Hut. Since it was now Lucy's O.W.L year, she thought it would be the prefect time to talk to someone about what she wanted to be after she graduated. And who better to ask than Professor Morgan since Lucy wanted to work with Magical Creatures. Lucy arrived outside the hut and knocked on the door, waiting for the professor to answer the door.

Reese walked down the pathways to Professor Morgan's hut. She needed to tell Professor Morgan what Heath wanted her to tell her before she forgot. She wrote down on a piece of parchment what she needed to tell the Professor, just in case when she got there she and forgot all the details. She stuck the piece of parchment in her pocket once she arrived at the hut. She knocked a few times on the wooden door then stepped back a few steps. Now, she just had to wait for Professor Morgan to give her permission to come in.

Reese heard Professor Morgan's voice coming from the other side of the wooden door. She pushed the door opened and walking inside, but since there was someone else waiting to come in, she left the door open for them. She walked a few steps closer to the Professor and smiled. "Professor Morgan, I have some news to tell you about Jake," she said. "It's not bad news or anything. It's something my stepdad wanted me to tell you."

Chris nodded "Summer's are very great. But I still love coming back to Hogwarts, my second home, and seeing all my friends and Professors again."
he watched as she passed him the cookie tin. YAY COOKIES! he thought to himself. He took one and bit a small chunk away.

After chewing the delicious piece of cookie, he remembered something he needed to ask her since he was already here. "Um Professor Morgan? Do you mind telling me your full name and full birthdate? I need the information to complete my Arithmancy homework for Professor Shakleton." he asked her sweetly.

Lucy entered the hut smiling. But the smile faded as she saw a house elf appear, soaking wet, and fainting! "Oh my! Is there anything I can do to help Professor?" She asked rushing over to where Morgan was. "Poor house elf. It must be from the flooding. I heard that it rose to the kitchen level."

Lucy smiled as the house elf woke up and began talking. She loved house elves. They were so cute, the way they looked, the way the talked, it was all so adorable. Lucy nodded as Professor Morgan asked for the bucket by the door. She rushed over and picked up the bucket setting it down next to the elf. "There you go Argyle." She said gently.

Chris hurriedly walked over to the House Elf he had seen while in the Kitchen Corridor. He had been down there before he came. And hadn't said anything about it yet. "I was down there, It was horrible!" he said to the two of them. "Professor Lawson went down to save the House Elves like Argyle here and some other students. I heard shouting from the hall above and went to see what had happened and a torrent of water was pouring through the corridor. Im telling you it was like a river." his eyes widening as he relived it in his head. "A tidal wave came and took Lawson and the elves down the corridor away from everybody else. It also took two girls with it." I jumped into the water to save them with a rope but they couldn't reach it. I then ran for help." he then told them of how he ran to the Staff room and got Professor's Lupa and Dumont to help. "When we go down there, they got everyone out. When Professor Dumont summoned the elf Beezley out of the water, they bumped into Dumont and knocked him in. I had to pull him out. But everyone is safe and the two Slytherin girls are in the Hospital Wing with Miss Avalon. Professor Lawson, has gotten sick from the water too. But he is with the nurse as well." he finished the horrible story.

"Now I'm afraid you will need to take two potions; one for decontamination and one to prevent you catching your death. I hope you're used to Pepperup potion by now." She stood up, leaving Argyle to be watched by Lucy and strode over to her desk. Once she'd had the phials in her hand, she handed them over to the prefect. "Take them now and then its off to bed with you. If you need help to your Common Room, be sure to let me know." She had to find a way to stress to the students that it was not okay for them to put their own lives in danger. Sickly house-elves she could handle, sick little boys she would not. She couldn't stop thinking about what Chris had said. Oh I do hope they're all okay. She thought, knowing she'd worry until she found out for herself.

Chris smiled as Professor turned to her Motherly, worried side. "I don't need those potions Professor Morgan he said with a smile. "I have already been to the Hospital Wing and Nurse Avalon has already forced me to drink them." he said with a smile. As for rest can I not just sit here and talk to you?" he asked his favorite teacher sweetly. "So that water is contaminated?" he asked as he sat down in a chair and leaned back to rest.

"Yes it IS and NO you may not." She replied. What was this? Was the student telling the teacher what was best for him? Well we will just see about that. "That is all very well and good, dear Prefect Potter, but you will report to your Common Room at once. Rest is what you need. Now march." With her finger pointing him towards the door, the professor stood there unmoving.

Jake?! Oh no. News never sounded good. "What is it Reese? Tell me everything." She said, trying to keep calm. But why would Jake's dad want her to know anything unless something was wrong?

Chris smiled "Ok well I will come visit again tomorrow or the next day when I'm rested." He said turning for the door and to head to the Common Room. "Bye." he said. When he closed the door behind him he grinned. 'Hey at least she cares about me."

One loud popping sound later, and Beezley the house elf apparated right into Professor Morgan's little hut. For a few moments, the elf shielded her big, bug eyes from the sunlight coming through the windows. It was very bright and blinding to a house elf who'd spend most of her life deep down in the kitchens. Speaking of which, where would she go now that she was homeless and had nowhere else to live? Would the masters and mistresses let her sleep atop the house tables in the Great Hall? At least then she'd feel a little better about being away from the kitchens.

Hands and arms still covering her eyes, Beezley walked forward until she came into contact with an object quite a bit taller than she was. Slowly uncovering her eyes, Beezley came face to face with Mistress Morgan. "Ohhh, Mistress! Beezley is homeless! Homeless, I tell ya! Homeless!" she wailed. She ran forward and wrapped her little arms around Mistress' legs, clinging on for dear life. "Beezley was told to come here, Mistress. Beezley was in great flood."

Lucy nodded her head politely as the Professor thanked her. "No problem Professor. It feels like on hands experience, even if its really small." As she looked around the hut, another small house elf appeared covering its eyes. "Professor there's another elf here." Lucy watched the elf. 'Ok so this elf is Beezley.'

"Okay,um...Heath wanted me to tell you that Jake is coming home for Christmas and while he is at home we are going to seek medical advice for him or something like that," Reese told her. She quickly pulled the piece of parchment she wrote on out her pocket and opened it up. She read over it and nodded. "Yes, it was medical advice," she added.

Originally Posted by Liisa (Post 8297711)

"Yes, Lucy. And you're welcomed to stay if you'd like to help me with her." Now THIS was the way to help in an emergency. A much better alternative than plunging headfirst into murky, DANGEROUS contaminated waters.

"I'd love to stay and help Professor. It's kinda of why I came here." Lucy said smiling. "I didn't except to have house elves to show up or anything." But that was ok with Lucy, she loved house elves. "Well I'm in my O.W.L year and we’re supposed to start thinking about what we want to be after we graduate." She said sitting down, but ready to help. "And I want to work Magical Creatures. I'm not exactly sure what I want to do in that area, but I know I want to work with creatures."

Originally Posted by Sneakeh Cat (Post 8297814)

Reese shrugged. "I don't think Jake is sick, but...I don't know. You can just write my stepdad and talk to him about it. I just know what he told me in the letter," she said. She felt bad that she didn't have the answers to Professor Morgan's questions. But, she honestly didn't know the answers. Heath and her mom knew more about Jake then she did.

"I should get going," she told the Professor and pointed at the door. "I just wanted to tell you that before I forgot."

What luck. Having Lucy around was just what she needed. "Thank you Lucy." She smiled, pulling out her wand and pointing it towards the bag on the floor. After summoning a few phials from inside, she handed one to Lucy and placed the others inside her robes. "If Beezley starts feeling faint, give her this. But be prepared with another bucket. There's a few stacked inside the cupboard standing over by the door."

There. Now that she had Lucy on the case, she could take a quick moment to speak to Reese properly. But just as she walked over towards her... she saw that Reese was already heading out the door. "Are you leaving already? Oh... well okay then Reese. Thank you for the update. I suppose I'll just send Mr. Upstead an owl this afternoon." She tried to smile but couldn't seem to find the energy. Something was wrong and she had no idea what it was. And it wasn't like Reese to seem this distant either. Oh dear. Today was turning into a horrible day.

When Argyle reopened her eyes, the professor smiled down at her. "Don't try to move, dear. That water you've ingested was probably contaminated." She said, pulling a phial from her robes. "Don't worry, just take this." She said, handing it over. "It might make you feel nauseous but that water is much better out than in."

"Lucy, please be a dear and fetch me that bucket by the door. Argyle's going to need it."
