Chapter 13

A few weeks later multiple horses with carriages with students in them ride through the snow, on the frozen lake. Inside the Great hall snow falls from the ceiling. Hermione walks, carrying a plate, to Sereia and Ron who are eating. She places her plate on the table and sits opposite them before leaning a little towards and begins to whisper so no one hears them.
Hermione: Everything's set. We just need a bit of who you're changing into.
Sereia looks a little disgusted.
Sereia: Crabbe and Goyle.
Ron nods.
Hermione: We also need to make sure that the real Crabbe and Goyle can't burst in on us while we're interrogating Malfoy.

Draco, Crabbe and Goyle glare at them.

Ron: How?
Hermione: I've got it all worked out.
She pulls two cupcakes from her pocket.
Hermione: I filled these with simple •Sleeping Draught.• Simple but powerful.
She puts them on the table.
Hermione: Now, once they're asleep...hide them in the broomstick cupboard and pull out a few of their hairs...and put on their uniforms.
Ron and Sereia share a look.
Ron: Whose hair are you ripping out, then?
Hermione: I've already got mine.
She pulls out a glass with hair in it.
Hermione: Millicent Bulstrode. Slytherin. I got this off her robes.

Millicent glares at Hermione while Draco looks thoughtful knowing she wasn't there.

Hermione: I'm going to go check on the Polyjuice Potion. Make sure that Crabbe and Goyle find these.
She lifts the cupcakes. A little later Ron and Sereia walk behind a stature. Ron clears his throat and lifts his wand. Sereia places a hand on his wand.
Sereia: Ron, maybe I should do it.
He looks at his wand and nods.
Ron: Yeah. Right.
He pockets his wand and Sereia lifts her wand. She flicks her wand.
Sereia: •Wingardium Leviosa.•
The two cupcakes begin to fly on top of the stairs in front of the Great hall. They hide behind the stature when they hear a something. They watch as Crabbe and Goyle walk out of the Great hall with their arm full of food. Crabbe points to the cupcakes and they walk to them.
Goyle: Cool.
They put their food into one arm and grab the cupcakes with their other hands before eating them.

They look between the screen and the two disgusted.

They smile before looking confused. They look at each other before passing out. Sereia and Ron look at them disgusted when they hit the ground.
Ron: How thick could you get?
Sereia: Come on, let's get them.
They run to Crabbe and Goyle.
Later that day, they're in the girls bathroom wearing Slytherin uniforms, where Hermione puts the potion into three glasses.
Hermione: We'll have exactly one hour before we change back into ourselves.

They look at the potion disgusted and groan. 'You look good in green' Sereia rolls her eyes at the voice in her head, with a small smile. Tom who's watching her looks curious and impatient. She turns her head to him amused when she felt his annoyance making him glare.

She hands them each a glass before taking the last one.
Hermione: Add the hairs.
They put the hairs into the glass. Ron looks disgusted and looks at Sereia.
Ron: Ugh. Essence of Crabbe.
Sereia looks between Ron and her glass.
Sereia: Essence of Goyle.
Ron nods.
Ron: Yeah, you definitely have it worse.
