Athena and Ron hurry down the staircase.
Athena: Don't swing your arms like that. Crabbe holds them sort of stiff [Ron goes a bit more "Neanderthal."] Yeah that's better!
Athena and Ron move quickly, when...footsteps sound. Seconds later, Percy appears at the end of the corridor.
Ron: What are you doing here?
Percy squints, confused by Ron's voice. Athena elbows Ron, who clears his throat and speaks in a lower voice.
Ron: What are you doing here?
"Oh for merlins sake" The pranksters sigh.
Percy: I happen to be a prefect. You, on the other hand, have no business wandering the corridors at night. It's not safe these days.
Athena and Ron nod, too afraid to speak. Percy squints again.
Percy: What're your names again?
Draco: Crabbe. Pansy. Where Goyle? Where have you been? Pigging out in the Great Hall all this time? Pansy I thought you was going home?
Athena: Change of plans dracie poo, I'm going home tomorrow Professor Snapes allowing me to floo.
"Good lie, are you sure you're James' kid" Mia asked making many laugh. James pouted "I am good at lying" "Excuse me Mr. potter what did you just say?" Minnie narrowed her eyes "Let's continue the movie" James gulped.
Draco is walking towards them, glances witheringly at Percy.
Draco: And what are you doing down here, Weasley?
Percy: Mind your attitude, Malfoy. You want to show a little bit more respect to a school Prefect!
"All he cares about is being prefect he needs to understand no one cares!" Sirius sighed getting smacked on the head by Remus and Regulus who were prefects.
Draco: Come on, Crabbe, Pansy. Weasley thinks he's going to catch Slytherin's hair single-handed.
Athena "Pansy": [latches onto Dracos arm] let's go dracie-poo
Everyone turns and looks at Athena "Pansy always tries to flirt with me so If Athena didn't want to be caught she would have to play the part 100%" Draco proclaimed making many sigh in relief. Fred however was glaring at the screen "Mine" he says pulling Athena tightly towards him.
Percy steams. Draco sneers, walks off with Athena and Ron. Ron trails Draco and Athena inside, glance around warily.
Draco: Listen to this...[Draco grabs The Daily Prophet, reads the front page] 'Arthur Weasley, Head of the Misuse of Muggle Artefacts Office, was today fined fifty Galleons for bewitching a Muggle car. "Weasley has brought the Ministry into disrepute," said Lucius Malfoy, a governor of Hogwarts. "He is clearly unfit to draw up our laws and his ridiculous Muggle Protection Act should be scrapped immediately."'
Many shout curses at Lucius or shrinks in his seat.
Grinning, Malfoy glances over the paper at Athena and Ron.
Draco: Arthur Weasley loves Muggle so much he should snap his wand in half and go join them. You'd never know the Weasleys were purebloods, the way they behave. Embarrassment to the wizarding world. All of them.
Ron growls. Athena elbows him. Draco looks surprised.
Draco: What's wrong with you Crabbe? And you never answered my question earlier, where's Goyle?
Ron: [low voice] Stomachache.
Athena: And Goyle is in the hospital wing because of a stomachache too dracie [Draco looks at her annoyed]
Draco: Well, go to the hospital wing Crabbe and give all those Mudbloods a kick in the arse for me! You know, I'm surprised The Daily Prophet hasn't reported all these attacks yet. I suppose Dumbledore's trying to hush it all up. He'll be sacked if it doesn't stop soon. Father always said Dumbledore's the worst thing that's ever happened to this place.
Everyone looked at the screen in anger. "Draco!" Exclaimed an angry Narcissa.
Athena: You're wrong!
People face palm.
Draco: What? Did you say that I was wrong? You think there's someone here who's worse than Dumbledore?
Ron stiffens. Worried, Athena quickly thinks.
Athena: Athena Potter!
The pranksters nod "good cover" they all say, getting hit round the heads.
Draco: [grinning] Good one, Pansy. You're absolutely right. Saint Potter. She's another one with no proper witch feeling, or she wouldn't go around with that Mudblood Granger. And people actually think she's the Heir of Slytherin.
Athena and Ron exchange a glance. Athena walks and sits closer to Draco, almost leaning onto him.
Athena: But dracie poo you must have some idea who's behind it all?
Draco: [pushing her away] You know I haven't, Pansy. How many times do I have to tell you? But my father did say this much: It's been fifty years since the Chamber was opened. He wouldn't tell me who opened it -- only that they were expelled -- but I know this: the last time the Chamber of Secrets was opened, a Mudblood died. So it's only a matter of time before one of them's killed this time. As for me... I hope it's Granger.
As Malfoy grins, Ron's fist rises... when Athena stops him.
Draco: What's the matter with you two? You're acting very.....odd
Ron: Ho!
Athena turns, and sees Ron staring wide-eyed: Athena's scar is beginning to surface beneath the skin of Pansy's forehead. And Crabbe's hair is... turning red. They both jump to their feet, dashing out of the room.
"Yes run" "c'mon" "faster"
Draco: Hey! Where are you going?
As Athena and Ron race toward the stairs, the Broom Closet bursts open and a woozy Crabbe and Goyle stagger out. They freeze -- watch a Crabbe and Pansy run up the staircase. Athena and Ron sprint toward the desecrated wall, their bodies metamorphosing, until, finally, as they hit the door....
... They are fully themselves once more.
Neville: You scared me!
Ron: That was close!
Athena: Hermione, come out. We've got loads to tell you!
Hermione: Go away!
As Athena and Ron exchange a puzzled glance, Moaning Myrtle spirals into view, looking disturbingly...happy, they look at Neville who shakes his head.
Neville: She hasn't come out since you've left
"How bad is is?" Asked a random Slytherin girl "bad" the trio chorused "How?" Asked Monty "well you see If Myrtle is happy that means something nasty or horrible has happened to someone else" Athena explained to her grandfather.
Moaning Myrtle: Ooh, wait till you see. It's awful!
The stall's lock slides back. The door opens slowly.
Hermione(O.S.): Do you remember me telling you the Polyjuice Potion was only for human transformations...?
Even in shadow, they can see: Hermione's face is covered in fur, her eyes yellow, and pointed ears poke through her hair.
Many gasp whilst others (the trouble makers) try not to laugh.
Hermione: It was cat hair I plucked off Millicent Bulstrode's robes! Look at my face!
Ron: Look at your tail!
Athena: You make a very good looking cat Hermione
Neville: Are you going to cough up fur-balls?
