The next morning, my friends and I went down to the great hall to have our breakfast. We ate it quickly and went back up to the common room to get our books for our next lesson. We had to go to History of Magic, which was easily the most boring subject at Hogwarts.
So we sat down and got out our books. Unfortunately, Laurie wasn't quick enough and I had to share a desk with Luella.
She looked at me with the look one gives to dog muck on the underside of their shoe, "Well, this is great. I have to share a desk with YOU!!!"
"Well, I'm not exactly doing cartwheels am I?"
"Just keep away from me, ok?"
I was very close to making a retort, but thought better of it.
All the way through the lesson, Luella kept pinching my notes and flicking my ears. I was really irriatated when Proffessor Binns collected in our essays and he gave Luella five house points. I told him that it wasn't her work but he just ignored me!
When we left the classroom, I bewitched her shoelaces to tie themselves together so that she tripped in front of a big crowd. Everyone laughed at her! It was great!!!
After History of Magic, we went to our Herbology lesson where we learnt about Devil's Snare. It was a very interesting lesson, but Luella kept chucking soil down my shirt from her desk behind me.
Thankfully, after Herbology, it was our lunch time. I had a quick lunch and went to clean myself up. I swore that I would get my revenge on Luella. I couldn't believe it! Two days into my new school and I already had an enemy!
Tash and I went for a walk around the school grounds looking for a place in which we could meet. We realised that we wouldn't be able to use the Room of Requirement after the Fiendfyre in 1998, well, we assumed that anyway.
The first place we looked was at the rocky inlet we had been the day before, but found nothing of obvious use.
Tash was really frustrated and in her anger kicked a rock and yelled,
"This is never going to work!!! Why can't we just be normal students and NOT leave a legacy?!"
"Because we're not normal students! We're the biggest bunch of oddjobs and misfits I've ever known!"
We hadn't noticed that a big door had opened up in a boulder when Tash had kicked the rock. We went in and found a room, big enough for four people or so and filled up with dungbombs, nose-biting tea cups and all sorts of old Zonko's products. We also noticed that there were also scores of Weasleys' Wizard Wheezes products as well. There was a note on the wall directly opposite us. We took it off and read it.
Messrs Mooney, Wormtail, Padfoot and Prongs,
Purveyors of aids to Magical mischief makers,
hand over to whoever reads this note, our hideout.
As you can see there are hundreds of magical jokes here, which will replenish themselves when used.
Use them well.
There was an addition on the bottom added by another person.
Fred and George Weasley and Lee Jordan, have benefited from this hideout,
we discovered it in our first year. It has helped us very much in our mischief.
To help the future mischief makers, we have also left a self-replenishing stock
of Weasleys' Wizard Wheezes products.
Good luck.
We ran back to tell Sam and Laurie about this. But, before we had gone far, we realised that we had been followed. Luella had been sneaking around, watching us whilst we had been searching.
"You know what, Bolt? I'm going to get you. The teachers will find out about this, mark my words!"
"You know what, Rencor? You're not going to get us because, we'll know if you tell, and I also know, that Tash and I are very able with the Bat-Bogey hex. So if you tell, your bogeys will become bats."
We went off back to the castle.
"Annie, I didn't know that we had been practicing the bat-bogey hex!"
"Yeah, we haven't. I was bluffing. But she was very scared! But don't worry, I've got something else up my sleeves. If she does tell, she'll get bad acne on her face with the word Tattler, written across her face in spots. I got that from Hermione Granger's security charm for the D.A. in 1995."
We arrived back at the castle in time to get our books and go to our next lesson.
We had double Defence Against the Dark Arts, with Mr.Potter. We were really excited! In our first lesson, we were learning about the different types of hexes and curses and jinxes. As our homework, we had to write an essay about any crse we may have heard of.
We went back to our common room to do our homework. I only had to do D.A.D.A. I did my essay about the unforgivable curses. It was quite an interesting topic.
We soon went to bed, but before I went to sleep, I sent a letter to my parents telling them about all my new friends and what we were planning to do and all sorts of stuff.
