Chapter 37: The Dragon
Cassie sat in the dungeon staring at Snape as the lesson began, picturing horrific things happening to him. . . . If only she knew how to do the Cruciatus Curse . . . he'd have Snape flat on his back like that spider, jerking and twitching. . . . she would need to write to her aunt Bella for tips. . .
"Antidotes!" said Snape, looking around at them all, his cold black eyes glittering unpleasantly. "You should all have prepared your recipes now. I want you to brew them carefully, and then, we will be selecting someone on whom to test one. . . ."
Snape's eyes met Harry's, and Cassie knew what was coming. Snape was going to poison Harry. Cassie imagined picking up her cauldron, and sprinting to the front of the class, and bringing it down on Snape's greasy head —
And then a knock on the dungeon door burst in on Harry's thoughts. It was Colin Creevey; he edged into the room, beaming at Harry, and walked up to Snape's desk at the front of the room.
"Yes?" said Snape curtly.
"Please, sir, I'm supposed to take Harry Potter upstairs."
Snape stared down his hooked nose at Colin, whose smile faded from his eager face.
"Potter has another hour of Potions to complete," said Snape coldly. "He will come upstairs when this class is finished."
Colin went pink.
"Sir — sir, Mr. Bagman wants him," he said nervously. "All the champions have got to go, I think they want to take photographs. . . ."
Harry would have given anything he owned to have stopped Colin from saying those last few words. He chanced half a glance at Ron, but Ron was staring determinedly at the ceiling.
"Very well, very well," Snape snapped. "Potter, leave your things here, I want you back down here later to test your antidote."
"Please, sir — he's got to take his things with him," squeaked Colin. "All the champions —"
"Very well !" said Snape. "Potter — take your bag and get out of my sight!"
Harry swung his bag over his shoulder, got up, and headed for the door. As he walked through the Slytherin desks, POTTER STINKS flashed at him from every direction.
"Black," Snape sneered. "Clean up Potter's cauldron."
After potions finished up, Harry was nowhere to be seen. Ron and Cassie walked to the Great Hall and had a very awkward and silent dinner. While Ron was going back to the Gryffindor common room, Cassie was going to the hospital wing to find Hermione.
"Hermione?" said Cassie walking into the Wing.
"Over here," said a giddy voice.
Cassie walked over to one of the beds to find Hermione looking at her teeth in a mirror.
