The Riddle: The Philosopher Stone ( Shifting Script/ Harry Potter Fan-fiction )

Chapter 19:

It was the next day, Tuesday, and I was in sixth period. Potions. I was sitting next to Draco's seat, as I was waiting for him to come to class so we could present our project. Me and Draco decided to never mention the library scene again, since it was awkward trying to bring it up. Snape's robe was black, but you could see some shades of pink from last week if you looked closely. I'm guessing he didn't wash his clothes just yet. I looked to my left side, right across the room was Sage and Fred fighting about the Polyjuice potion they made. I couldn't hear them, since they were whispering and yelling at the same time somehow. Sage kept pointing to the potion with both of her hands, while Fred was shaking his head side to side with his hand up, like a ' I don't know ' type of way. I suddenly heard Draco come in with an annoyed look on his face. He was probably just doing it so that Sage wouldn't suspect anything between us. But since Sage was too busy concentrating on whisper yelling at Fred, I decided to break character, smile and say

Me: " Psst, Draco we can relax for a minute. Sage is yelling at-"

He then looked at me in a disgusted face saying

Draco: " Shut your bloody mouth Riddle."

My smile dropped down to a confused look.

Me: " Draco, are you ok?"

He then got really frustrated and mid-yelled

Draco: " You know what Riddle, just leave me alone. You really are making my pureblood boil. How about you pretend that I was never here!"

He turned back to Snape's desk and I could feel water coming to the front of my eyes. The whole class went silent. I could hear a chair screech, as it was pushed back and the tapping of the shoes walking over to us. It was Sage. She must have stopped her conversation and come try and back me up.

Sage: " What's your problem Malfoy? Whatever you're dealing with doesn't have to affect others you know."

Exactly, Sage gets me.

Draco: " Coming from a Lestrange."

I turned to Draco bulging his shoulder with the pointy tip of my elbow.

Me: " Malfoy, how about YOU learn to respect others."

I could see Sage look at the other end of the room, with an annoyed face expression. She then went back to her seat with arms crossed and her face still as it was. I could see that once she sat down. Fred patted her back, rubbing it up and down to try and soothe her. These things usually didn't frustrate her, but when you call her by her mother's maiden name, it makes her heart break. I could see she was hot, as her face was red. Her crossed arms were on the table and she was softly crying. Fred is still trying to soothe her. I looked to Draco, who looked like he was guilty. I rolled my eyes and looked at Snape who was beginning the class. He said

Professor Snape: " I am going to be letting you all present your Polyjuice Potion. If not in hand, you fail. That's the end. I will be telling you and your partner when to come up. When there are people presenting, wait for your turn. Bella and Henry, you are both up first."

Bella and Henry were both in Ravenclaw. They were very nervous and they kept shaking. I felt bad for them, as they did really good on their project, but were very anxious. I could hear Draco snorting from laughter. What was so funny? Then they went to sit back down, both of them dressed like each other and looked like the other. Then Snape said

Professor Snape: " Sage and Fred Weasley, you are next."

Sage was back into her regular mood. While they both switched ties and robes, Snape was staring at them and moving his quill up in the air like it was flying, controlling it with his hands to show that he was getting bored.

Professor Snape: " We do not have all day."

He said angrily, looking at his quill to the both of them. They changed and Sage grabbed her Polyjuice walking up to the front with Fred holding his Polyjuice. They looked at each other, then nodded. They brought their viles to each other to clink

Both Sage and Fred: " Cheers."

They gulped it down. Once it was empty, they kept licking the roof of their mouth with their tongue sticking out, as they tasted the pee-like substance. Suddenly, Fred started shrinking to Sage's height. But Sage was doing the opposite. Her hair started going into her scalp and her hair was bright orange. Suddenly, in just five more seconds. They were each other. Sage looked up, doing her old habit since Fred was taller than her, but she couldn't see anything, then looked down to see Fred staring at her in her own body. They both walked backwards, as they were not used to seeing each other like this. Then they started walking towards each other to look closely. And then started doing their long handshake. It took fifteen seconds but at the last five seconds, Snape said

Professor Snape: " Well done both of you, now go back to your seats."

But once they were done. Fred, real Fred in Sage's body said.

Fred: " I need to use the restroom."

And both Sage with Snape nodded acting like it was no big deal. Sage went to go sit back on her chair when she looked up with wide eyes. He. Was. In. Her. Body. They. Could. See. Everything. On. Their. Body. Sage got up and ran to the door yelling

Sage: " FRED GIDEON WEASLEY! YOU ARE NOT GOING TO THE BATHROOM IN MY BODY!"

Everyone started laughing, including me and Draco. While three more people went and did their experiment, all of them figuring out they did something wrong with their potion, Fred and Sage came back into the classroom. Everyone was staring at them wanting to know what happened. Sage's body rolled her eyes, I didn't know if that was Sage or Fred.

Sage: " Fred over here got back into his real body before entering the stall. Happy?"

Sage and Fred rolled their eyes and went back to their table.
