✧THE LONE FEATHER✧

"You've got to be bloody kidding me, the Grim?" The eldest Lestrange had groaned into the air further. Yet Cara only smiled up at him. "It'll be alright, at least you know now."
"I can't decide if it's better to tell mother or not."
"In a bit, oh here there are now. See you later Rommy!" Cara cheered, hurrying over towards the Gryffindors with a bright smile.

"Hi!"
"Oh, hello Cara. You signed up for Care of Magical Creatures as well?" She nodded eagerly and eyed Hermione. The 'brightest witch of her age' truly was careless to not hide her time turner properly.

Cara didn't really have much of a care who was on top, but the fact that McGonagal would lie about the final grades peeved her off much more than she wanted to admit.

"I've looked into those Death omens last night. Honestly. If you ask me, Divination's a very wooly discipline. Now Ancient Runes, that's a fascinating subject." Cara blinked to the witch, yes, Cara screamed, make it anymore obvious that McGonagall chose you for the time turner.

"Ancient Runes? Exactly how many classes are you taking this term?" Ron question, and Cara smirked. "A fair few." Was the gal's reply, leaving the Ravenclaw to shrug.

"Hang on. Ancient Runes is the same time as Divination. You'd have to be in two classes at once."
"Don't be silly. How could anyone be in two classes at once?" Hermione beckoned and Cara rolled her eyes.

"I rather go through another year of relearning runes than try and decipher what Professor Trewlawney is trying to say on a good day." The Blue among the red had teased, and the group around her laughed as they made their way into the forest.

Where Care of Magical Creatures was being taught.

"Broaden your mind..." Hermione laughed, mimicking Trelawney's voice and Cara giggled right along. "Use your inner eye to see the future!" And the group had been a bundle of laughter as they caught up with the rest of the class.

The rest of the students had been at a clump at the back near the fence's entrance. Yet Cara had migrated closer to her brother and nudged him. "What'd Rom say?"
"Oh, he's probably groveling it now in charms, what's going on here?" This had truly been their first class with Professor Hagrid, seeing as how he needed an extra few days to get his things in order.

But nobody was at all misplaced, and so Cara had hugged her book tighter. Especially when she caught sight of the dead ferrets about, it caused her nose to twitch in the slight offense.

"Gather 'rough. Find yourself a spot. That's it. Now, firs' thing yeh'll want her do is open yer books—" The Giant had called out, and Ronan eyed his mate as her interrupted right in the middle of the instructions.

"And exactly how do we do that?" Draco earned Hagrid's attention outright, and huffed.

"Crikey. Didn't yeh know? All yeh've got her do is stroke 'em. Look—" the class had followed their professor walk straight to Ms.Granger and calmly run a forefinger down the length of the book's spine.

And Cara grinned as she had gotten that reaction in the summer already, however she pouted.

Seeing how unsure her professor was feeling so she smiled in an attempt to be reassuring.

It must've worked because Hagrid caught his next lines and departed for a moment. "God, this place is going to the dogs. Wait until my father hears Dumbledore's got this oaf teaching classes." Ronan gawked at Draco.
