A Father A New Life Start Book 2

11. Potions Gone Wrong

It was the last lesson of the day double potions which Harry now loved and he was now in the top 10 of the school, Draco being the 1st of course but Harry was happy with were he was he was getting EE and O's as he now had a quiet place to study and no one hitting him over the head with books or making him procrastinate by playing chess even if he was getting better at the game with help from his father, Tom and Draco he would never be as good as them which he was happy about.

"Today you will be making an Aging Potion which will temporally make you older for at least until you go to bed tonight if and I mean if you brew it correctly" sneered Severus to the class making the shudder they hated him sometimes.

Otiz was in his human form and was getting the ingredients already mumbling about how Severus liked to scare people but at home in his own personal space he was nice as pie really and if you really wanted him on his good side give him chocolate.

"What are you waiting for get to work!" it seemed like Severus was in a bad mood sadly, he just waved his wand and his spidery writing appeared on the board.

. Newt Spleens, Bananas (strange everyone thought as they read the ingredients), an Orange Snake and a Green Leaf

Soon everyone got to work and for once the lesson was going as planned or so thought one Severus Tobias Snape but with everything that was going wrong today this was going to take the cake and completely destroy it all in a matter of seconds.

It was coming to the end of lesson which Severus was grateful for, he wanted a nice black strong coffee and his leather recliner and his book of Sherlock Holmes, he had the complete collection mind you after all they were the classics and he was yet again re reading the books, he was half way through the first book A Study in Scarlett.

He was snapped out of it when he heard bubbling, damn it why did he have to day dream about it all but it was now too late, he had managed to shield everyone or at least he thought he did until he heard...

"Oh yuck it's all over me Hadrian it's gross" said Draco.

"You smell as well Dray" said Harry stepping away slightly holding is nose this made Otiz laugh but stopped when he noticed that Draco was shrinking and becoming animal like.

"What's happening to me Hadrian? Otiz?..." he was going to say uncle Sev but he was soon buried under his clothes this made the whole class scared they had no idea what had become of Draco Lucius Malfoy, they snapped out of it when they noticed the clothes moving and out popped a tiny pink nose followed by a furry silver blonde head.

Everyone jumped and the girls screamed thinking it was a rat until Draco came fully out of his clothes he was an adorable silver blonde ferret!

Otiz being who he was burst out laughing as he picked Draco up, awe so smol Dray but oh so sweet looking like this" which resulted in Draco biting him on the finger and jumping to Harry's shoulder as if to say save me from your familiar.

"GET OUT ALL OF YOU! THOMAS! FUNNIGAN! SNAPE STAY!" the other students ran out leaving their potions there but within seconds of waving his wand everything was cleaned up and put away they will be doing this potion again but he did leave Dean's and Seamus' potion to see what they had done to do this to Draco.

"Hadrian go and sit in my office please Otiz if you don't mind keep him there for me while I deal with these two idiots!" said Severus making Otiz just guide Harry to his office and once the door was shut he snapped.

"WHAT IN MERLIN WERE YOU TWO THINKING! YOU WERE MEANT TO CREATE A POTION OF AGING AND NOT THIS!..." waves his wand over the now cold potion trying to find out what they had done it wasn't an Animagus potion that was for sure and it wasn't Polyjuice he knew both of these very well so what in merlin's name had they done!

"We... we don't know" said Dean getting scared.

"We followed everything.... I think" said Seamus but he wasn't sure if they had or hadn't and now they were paying the price for it all.

"WELL I CAN SEE THAT YOU COMPLETE IMBECILE! YOU HAVE SOMEHOW MANAGED TO MESS UP A POTION THAT IS EASY ENOUGH TO DO, IT'S NOT EVEN THE POTION I ASKED YOU TO MAKE AND IT ISN'T ANOTHER THAT WOULD CREATE THIS MESS EITHER! DETENTION AND 50 POINTS FROM GRYFFINDORE EACH NOW GET OUT FROM HERE" he dismissed them for now but he will be setting up their detentions very soon but first he had to see about Draco.

Once they had left he went into his office, Otiz holding Harry on his lap knowing full well he didn't like shouting but in this case it was needed, Draco poked out from Harry's lap.

"Hadrian sorry about the shouting but I needed to get it through your friends heads that it's not ok to mess with potions that all" this made Harry nod and held Draco close to him.

"We need to get Draco checked out in the Hospital Wing as I will most likely now be spending my night as well as the weekend trying to figure out what Mr Thomas and Mr Finnigan has done to their potion to result in Draco becoming a ferret as it's not the animagus potion or the aging potion that I asked everyone to do I have no idea what it is, so for now Draco is stuck in that form" this made Harry gasp his Dray was stuck as an animal no way!

Soon they were heading to the Hospital Wing to get Poppy to check over Draco just to make sure and when she did everything was ok he was just stuck as a ferret and very cute ferret that was now draped across Harry's shoulder asleep, Otiz was curled up in fox form on his lap Coco was on Draco's head hissing at everyone.

"Severus do you know what caused this it's a potions accident but that's all I can work out he's completely fine but I can't reverse it at all" sighed Poppy to the potions master.

"Mr Thomas and Mr Finnigan seemed to have messed up a simple aging potion by doing who knows what to result in this and it's sadly not the animagus potion either I have no idea what they have done and it looks like my evening and the weekend seems to take place of looking up with what went wrong" he sighed.

"Dad you have to tell uncle Luc and Aunt Cissa they would like to know about Dray and how he got like this" said Harry petting the animals on him.

"I have already done that Hadrian" sighed Tom as he came into the Hospital Wing after getting word of what has happened to Draco and the detentions of Dean and Seamus.

"I have given them detention as well, they will be having them with me in my office for three days for a fortnight after their suspension id over which is also a fortnight and what ever you think is also reasonable Sev" explained Tom.

"They will have detention with me for a month and around your detentions Headmaster" he was still annoyed his weekend was now ruined but at least his godson was safe, the two idiots were suspended for the time being, it gave him a fortnight to find outcome and hopefully change Draco back.

He also had to deal with Harry in the blasted tournament which he might add he could lose his son it was such a dangerous tournament why in the hell did the bloody well Minister think a good idea to do this anyway he would rather not find out to be honest, he sighed today just wasn't his day he now needed a firewhiskey but first dinner and then him and his son can retire for the night.
