The Lost LeStranges

First Day- Part II

Charms ended without much trouble except for Lyra secretly plotting ways to get her brother and cousin back, that may or may not involve them being thrown into the Black Lake while they are sleeping.

After Charms, the group of six headed to Transfiguration which was taught by the head of Griffindor, Professor McGonnagal. The twins were apprehensive about this not because of the subject no but because of the teacher. Professor Minerva McGonnagal allowed them to be placed in the hands of their adoptive parents (more like abusers) all because they were of The Ancient and Most Noble House of LeStrange.

They decided to sit at the back and not bring too much attention to themselves in this lesson.

Lyra sat in between Hadrian and Draco, and Theo, Pansy and Daphne were sat infront of them.

Irritatingly they also had this lesson with Griffindors that sat at the front of the class. However there were two missing.

Hadrian noticed McGonnagal in her animagus form, a cat, sat on her desk and smirked at her, planning to startle her as petty revenge.

He saw her cat eyes widen and felt satisfaction bubble in him. Lyra saw this and nudged him with her foot,

" I thought we were keeping a low profile for this lesson Hades,"
She whispered to him, confused.

" I can't help it this woman is part of the reason we were kept with those blood-traitors for most of our lives, she is part of the order which is part of the reason we were stolen from our parents, and if i find any way possible to make things even the slightest bit more difficult for her believe me i will."

He mumbled back.

Just as Lyra was about to reply, Potter and Weasley barge in out of breath.

"Whew we made it, can you imagine old McGonnagals face if we were late?"
Hadrian snickered at the obliviousness of Weasel and Potter.

McGonnagal tranforms to herself,

"That was bloody brilliant !"

"Thank you for that assessment Mr Weasley, perhaps it would be more helpful if i were to transfigure Mr Potter or yourself into a pocket watch? That way at least one of you might be on time."

"We got lost Professor" Potter says as if its a valid excuse.

"Then perhaps a map? I trust you don't need one to find your seats."

Both boys, humiliated, head to their seats with their head down.

All the Slytherins snigger at their idiocy and misfortune.

The objective of the first lesson was to transfigure a match stick into a needle.

Lyra completes this with ease and then soon decides to make more complex needles. She made one with an image of her family in the eye of the needle, then another with a rose vine entwined around the needle and finally one with a snake with ruby eyes wrapped around the needle.

Her brother looks at her in awe while Draco looks at her with a confused expression. While she goes to help Draco, McGonnagal comes over to her desk. Hadrian takes this as a chance to have some fun.
