My day started pretty normally when I walked down to the Great Hall to get my breakfast before my day of classes began. As I reached the entrance to the great hall I heard someone call me "a filthy mudblood". Since being at Hogwarts I have grown a second skin, words like this don't offend me anymore since I have had five years of it, it's just mildly irritating. I turn around and spot Lucius Malfoy staring with his followers standing around him sneering at me in response I roll my eyes and turn back around to head to my table.
As I walk past a group of boys in Gryffindor I can feel them watching me. I look up at them, instantly recognizing that they are the pranksters of the school who call themselves 'the Marauders'. As I am going past I wink at them, I can only smirk at their reactions as they all blush at the fact they were caught staring. Once breakfast was over with it was potions for my first class, although most people groan at potions I quite enjoy it, I find it to be an interesting subject and one that I excel at that's for sure.
When I finally arrive in the dimly lit dungeon we are all asked to stand around the center. Slughorn told us that we are going to be learning to make a cure for uncommon poisons which is moderately hard to make. He then puts us in pairs, pairing me up with Sirius Black of all people, it's not that I had an actual problem with Sirius he just puts his attention into hooking up with girls than the actual school work.
As I look round the misty classroom I spot the person I'm looking for - Sirius, who had already bagged a table close to Remus and the others, his eyes never left me as I made my way over to his table. As I reached the table I take my things out of my bag and dump the bag on the floor as I sit down on the barstool. I open my book up to the right page when I start to hear whispers, which I realize are coming from Sirius and his friends, the whispering didn't bother me until it became a constant noise in the background that was interrupting my thoughts. As I look over to them about to tell them to 'shut up' I spot Lucius Malfoy standing at his cauldron looking confused at the instructions. I watch as Malfoy keeps glancing around the room. Probably not wanting people to see him struggling so much.
Since I have already studied up on this potion, as extra credit last year, I use my time watching Malfoy, keeping notes on what he is putting in his cauldron. "Hi" a voice breaks me out of my thoughts slightly, I look over to who is talking to me to find Sirius looking between myself and my notes.
"Oh, hi" I reply with a small smile, looking back at my new project. I write down the ingredients that Malfoy is starting to put into his potion. Sirius notices what I am writing, "you do know what you just put in the cauldron wasn't fire seeds right?" I sigh looking back over quickly.
"Yeah, I know." Looking back at Lucius I see him put in the Billywig stings "all that's left is powdered graphorn horn" I whisper to myself.
"Err no, we need to put in the Chizpurfle Carapaces first" Sirius corrects me. "Yeah, ah uh, sure" I start to walk away from our table as Malfoy walks over to the shelving area "excuse me a second". I sneak over to Malfoy's table whilst Malfoy talks to another Slytherin with their backs turned to the cauldron as they search the shelves for another ingredient. I add in the ten extra fire seeds I brought with me into Malfoy's cauldron and stir quickly. Just as Malfoy was turning around I managed to reach my seat, I could hear the bubbling of the cauldron before I even reached my table. I don't notice but all the marauders have been watching what I had just done.
"So now we put in the Chizpurfle Carapaces, Sirius" I say in whispered tone, a smirk trying to sneak onto my lips. I keep watch of Malfoy causing the others to watch in curiosity.
I don't realise but I am sitting at the edge of my seat, in anticipation, watching as Lucius Malfoy adds the final ingredient, powdered graphorn horn. As soon as the final ingredient hits the bubbling water, boom. The concoction explodes releasing a big black cloud of smoke which devours Lucius, leaving a dusty mess in its wake.
