YOU SHAKE YOUR HEAD AS YOU ALL WALK UP THE STAIRS OF THE HOGWARTS CASTLE, TRUNKS IN HAND.
the boys hurriedly put theirs down as you make no effort to be quick, filch was already standing up ahead.
"see you, hedwig" harry says hurriedly, the boys rushing up the stairs with you following boredly behind.
"so, a house-elf shows up in my bedroom.. we can't get through the barrier to platform 9 3/4... we almost get killed by a tree.. clearly someone doesn't want me here this year"
you don't say
the boys look up, only just noticing filch.
filch looks down at them "well, take a good look, lads. this night might well be the last you spend in this castle"
second year and we're already getting expelled, fun!
ron and harry exchange a fearful look, you just shrug.
"oh, dear, we are in trouble" filch grins sickly, you facepalm.
you were then escorted to snape's office, he sit crossly, reading the newspaper.
"you were seen by no less than seven muggles"
oh, boo-hoo
he slaps the newspaper down, "do you have any idea how serious this is? you have risked the exposure of our world"
cool. always need a bit of adrenaline runnin' through ya
"not to mention the damage you inflicted on the whomping willow that's been on these grounds since before you were born" he hisses madly.
"honestly, professor snape, i think it did more damage to us"
you deadpan.
"silence" snape hisses furiously, you hold back a snigger at his mad look.
snape stands up, "i assure you.. that were you in slytherin, and your fate rested with me.. the three of you would be on the train home.. tonight"
good thing we're not then, aye?
"as it is.."
"they are not" dumbledore cuts off, you look over at both dumbledore and mcgonagall.
"professor dumbledore. professor mcgonagall" harry says.
"headmaster.." snape breathes out.
he points at you three like a small child telling on someone.
"..these kids have flouted the decree for the restriction of underage wizardry. as such.."
"i am well aware of our bylaws, severus.." dumbledore says, walking closer.
"..having written quite a few of them myself. however, as head of gryffindor house.. it is for professor mcgonagall to determine the appropriate action"
ron looks up guiltily, "we'll go and get our stuff, then"
professor mcgonagall looks down pointedly at you all, "what are you talking about, mr. weasley?"
"you're going to expel us, aren't you?" ron looks down sady.
"not today, mr. weasley" mcgonagall smiles thinly, you sweat-drop,
really?
ron and harry look at eachother hopefully.
"..but i must impress on the three of you the seriousness of what you have done. i will be writing to your families tonight, and you three will receive detention"
you nod a bit.
