Kurumi removed her wand from her robe's pocket and pointed it at his head before uttering two spells. "Felintas....Ristaris," she chirped. His hair morphed instantly into a crimson mane streaked with gold here and there. Perfect to complete his lion look for the pep rally. "All set! Grab a cookie and feel free to join us in chanting."

Speaking of cookies...Kurumi needed to eat another one soon...

Okay....this was was a mystery that Kurumi really needed an answer to. WHY were the Hufflepuffs chanting about willows? Did they all have wands made from them? Was the entire team flying on brooms made from willow so chanting about them would somehow make them fly faster and stronger? So many thoughts were running through the Gryffindor's head, causing her cat ears and whiskers to twitch in anticipation.

Should she ask? She didn't want to come off as being rude...but she really wanted to know the meaning behind willow...secret code perhaps?

"Psst...Minnie...why are you guys chanting about willows?"

Wait...was the Whomping Willow a Hufflepuff?
