Once Professor Cassie was finished with the instructions, she looked down at the sieve and then back up at her partner. "Should I cast it first, then?" What if she cast it all wrong and the thingy thought AJ had done it even though she hadn't? What if AJ HAD done it? Nooo, she wouldn't do something so terrible...right? With a suddenly apprehensive gland at her partner, the fourth year positioned the sieve between them and pulled out her wand. "Here goes nothin'." EXCEPT that it was kind of EVERYTHING, but if the Gryffindor really was an evil turtle stealing thief then it probably wasn't a very good idea to show she was nervous. You never knew what a real live mean person could do.

"Damnare Ostendere!" TAAAP "AJ Valentine!" Wait a sec. That wasn't even her full name. Norah grinned sheepishly at her partner. Oops. She cleared her throat and raised her wand again. "Damnare Ostendere! TAP "Aubrey Janelle Valentine." Turtle thief or not, that was a COOOL name.


Norah wasn't scared, was she? Was AJ the only one who was really excited by the whole thing? Sure, she didn't want anything bad to happen to Bob, but it was thrilling. Things always went down at Hogwarts and AJ had a front row seat. She was just really going to be bummed if someone was the turtle thief and she missed it. As much as she loved working with Norah, she knew she was the turtle thief. In fact you could probably cross every Hufflepuff off the suspect list. Eyes on the snakes though. Not that she was being judgmental or anything. Ahem.

AJ nodded her agreement when Norah suggested they try it out on AJ first. Right now she was distracted. As her fellow fourth year friend got situated, AJ scanned the room. Anything that moved was going to catch her eye. High alert! Scanning, scanning when suddenly she saw something move. Ohhh... somebody WAS a turtle thief. Who was it?

AJ sucked in air. Her eyes were huge and she unknowingly had her mouth hanging open. The sieve that was moving belonged to her boyfriend.

......
...
.....

That dirty, rotten, turtle snatching, phony baloney Hufflepuff boyfriend. Was Adi even his real name? Dramatic much? A little bit, but mainly because he was going to be in BIG trouble if he stole a turtle before he stole a unicorn. Did he have no regard all ALL for her? Still, she was a ride or die girlfriend, and she wasn't going to call him out.

"Pssssssst. Adiiii" Did he need help? Blink twice if he needed her to knock over a sieve so he and Bob could make a run for it.

How long had she been staring over there? The sound of her name coming from her partner's mouth brought her attention back. Right. They didn't need to do this now. They knew who the culprit was. It could be wrong though...right?

AJ stared at her sieve. Nothing happened. Of course not. She was completely innocent. It was looking like she was about to become an accomplice though. The lion bit her bottom lip and looked between the professor and Adi, unsure of what to do. Just give her a sign, Adi. Any little sign.

"Looks like I'm in the clear." Not even thinking about Norah possibly seeing what what happening to Adi's sieve until this very moment, she tried to bring the attention back to the task at hand.

"Let's see if you have anything to hide, shall we?" Nothing just happened with Adi. Nope. "Damnare Ostendere." TAP. "Norah Kittredge." Helping Adi escape with the professor's turtle?
Norah let out a slow breath she hadn't realized she was holding. So AJ wasn't a turtle thief. That was a relief. She found herself grinning at her partner as if she'd known she was innocent the entire time. You just never could tell with Gryffindors. That was mean. DON'T TELL ANYBODY SHE THOUGHT THAT.

She was about to open her mouth to tell AJ she was ready when sooooomething was going on. With Adi. His sieve was moving. HIS SIEVE WAS MOVING. HIS SIEVE WAS M O V I N G. The fourth years eyes widened to much they could've been entire plates all by themselves, and she scooted her seat a few inches in the opposite direction. Adi? Prefect Adi who was the nicest person in the entire history of the universe, a lying and stealing meanie face? This was probably worse news than Bob being stolen in the first place but don't tell Professor Cassie that either. Apparently the Hufflepuff's brain wasn't as nice when there were THIEVES and LIARS around. It was like the meanness was contagious. She kept her mouth shut, though, just in case something horrible came out. Apparently she COULD be quiet when it really mattered. So there. Her mum couldn't find out about that either or else she'd expect it all the time and that'd just be boring.

Norah watched the sieve with wide eyes as AJ cast the spell, sitting on her hands to keep from fidgeting too much so the thing thought she was guilty. She was 300% aware of the fact that she was holding her breath this time, which didn't even make much sense considering the fact that she was innocent. Thats, right.....right? YES. Innocent. She kept holding that breath until she was completely sure the sieve was standing perfectly still, finally letting it out and giving her partner a soft smile. "Guess we're both good, then." Except that they WEREN'T because AJ was dating a THIEF and a LIAR and a STEALING MEANIE. What if that was contagious too? Like YAWNS except WORSE.
