Harry's aunt

~23~

~A few days later~

Jasmine was walking around, watching the students practice different spells that she had taught them. She stopped her stroll, hearing a faint banging noise against the wall. This caused all of the students to stop what they were doing and looked at the wall, where the noise was coming from.

“Everyone stay back,” Jasmine instructed, walking toward the wall. She peeked through a hole that was created in the wall by the blast, and saw Umbridge, Filch, Cho Chang, and a small group of Slytherin students gathered on the other end. “Bloody hell...”

“Bombarda Maxima!” Umbridge said, pointing her wand at the wall. Jasmine’s eyes went wide, being pulled back by Fred as the wall broke open, sending debris flying.

‘This is not good...’ Jasmine thought, locking eyes with a smiling Umbridge.

~A few days later~

After the disbanding of Dumbledore’s Army and Dumbledore’s disappearance, Umbridge became the official headmaster and cracked down on the students more, adding more ridiculous rules and banning magic completely. After suffering through choir class, Jasmine walked down the hall to see Fred and George sitting with a little boy, no older than twelve. Walking closer, she could see that the little boy was crying and that the twins were comforting him.

“As I told you once before, Miss Potter,” Jasmine heard a voice say, before looking at Umbridge. “Naughty children deserve to be punished.” She gave Jasmine a forced smile and walked down the adjacent hallway. Jasmine could feel anger bubbling up in her stomach, watching Umbridge walk to her office. She had gone too far, it was bad that she was using this punishment on students like her and the twins, but to use this punishment on children as young as this little boy? She had to suffer for her actions, she had to go.

“You know George, I’ve always felt our futures lay outside the world of academic achievement,” Fred said, standing behind Jasmine.

“Fred? I’m thinking exactly the same thing,” George agreed, standing beside his brother.

“Whatever you two are planning? I want in,” Jasmine said, still looking at the doorway that Umbridge was previously standing in.

~Weeks Later~

It was the day of O.W.L. testing, and all of the students were in the Great Hall testing quietly, well most of the students. Jasmine sat in her seat, but she wasn’t testing, no she had done that in Flitwick’s class the week prior, after telling him what she and the twins had planned. She was waiting for something, and it wasn’t long before it was coming. Her golden brown eyes scanning the room quietly, her face was stone, like all of the emotion had left her, that was until she heard a faint noise, which not only got the student’s attention, but Umbridge’s as well. This made Jasmine sit up a little and smirk a tiny bit. She watched Umbridge as she opened the large doors and stepped out into the hallway. Once she saw the ball of sparks whiz past Umbridge, she pulled out her wand and watched as Fred and George sped in on their brooms. She heard them before she could see them, which made her chuckle softly. The twins zipped through the room, tossing different fireworks to each other, lighting them, and tossing them into the air.

“Jasmine catch!” Fred called, tossing her an unlit firework. Jasmine caught the firework, lit it with her wand, then tossed it. This made the students, for the first time in a while, laugh and fill the room with sounds of awe at the fireworks.

“The firework we gave you earlier! Light it now!” George called, tossing another lit firework. Jasmine pulled a firework out of her cloak and lit it as well, tossing it up into the air. It blew up and took the form of a large fiery dragon that had its eyes set on Umbridge. She saw this and began running, making the dragon give chase and swallow her up, destroying the framed rules that hung over the doorway, as it did so.
