Chapter 19: Te he he
I woke up in the morning at pretty much 7 o'clock, but that was because I was freaked out at a bunch of little kids staring at us like a funny zoo exhibit. Maybe Percy was on the same thought, but I knew...or....just thought that messing with people would be fun. He he he!
"Come on mate," a rough english accent woke us up, "just take....her hat!" the booming laughter rang out through the room. I kept my eyes shut just to see where this was going. I take it that Percy was keeping his eyes shut too because no one was shutting up. They kept going on and on about how we were weirdos and that they didn't think we were up to any good.
"Fine," a boy agreed, "I'll just take the hat and put it back. I don't want her mad (smart boy)," i felt a hand reach across the couch. There was a feint smell of bacon so i guess he had just gotten back from breakfast.
Just when he passed the point of no control i grabbed his arm and yanked my knife out of its pocket. "Good morning to you too," i let go of his arm and gently pushed his back to his friends. "Don't worry," i put the bronze knife away, "I'm not going to hurt you guys," I stood up. "Is there breakfast?" i asked, as i slung my bag over my shoulder.
"Yeah, they're also handing out schedules...are you really this calm?" a girl asked. There was a group of about a dozen kids clustered around the room.
"Of course," i responded. "Is he still asleep?" i asked. Percy was snoring in the armchair, and two kids were taking turns poking his with their wands. "Percy!" the kids backed off.
"Woah," he jumped up. "....hi?"
"Hi!" the girls in the group giggled. Ha ha ha i would SO tear them apart. "Do you want to come down to the Great Hall?"
"Sure,"
"Yeah, maybe you can help us mess with Umbridge!!!" the hat-stealer-boy exclaimed.
"Who's Umbridge?" Percy asked. The Hogwarts kids led us out the common room. "Is she the.....?"
"toad," they all echoed.
"What's wrong with her?" I asked. I absolutely hated that toad-faced-vomit-inducing-aggravating-excuse-for-a-person!
"She used to work her a couple years ago, and she totally took over. She had favorites, Slytherins, and her enemies, Harry Potter and his followers. Hopefully we can get her out soon," The girl finished her story and the next boy was ready to jump in.
"I've been talking to the rest of our year, all houses, and no one wants her. Not even Malfoy's goons want her,"
"I'v dealt with some bad teachers, how bad can she be?" Percy asked as we came to the great doors of the Great Hall.
"How bad can who be, sweetie?"
So what do you think? I'll try to post soon, but i'm not sure (finals). Post a comment PLEASE!
