It was a war. A full on war between houses. And Slytherin's were known to play dirty and Amelia was their ring leader.

Severus tried ot hide their bullying but Amelia was more observant and she hated them for hurting her best firned. It was time for justice. Vengence.

"Amelia what are you up?" Albus questioned.

"World domination." Amelia answered skipping off.

"Okay, have fun." ALbus agreed before turning towards her. No. He was sure it was fine.

"Damn."

"Vicious." Lucius agreed.

"We won. Its basically the best day ever might as well add the cherry on top." Amelia added getting changed.

"Did severus tell you?"

"No. But i know him. He hides the bruises well but i can see." Amelia remarked. "Teasing is one thing but they have gone too far."

Too far indeed.

Anelia stared back across at her father as he sat leaning forward at his desk. Her hair and clothes were a mess of pinks and greens. The boys clothes were tattered and paint splattered across them.

"Do i even need to ask?" Albus questioned

"I think we learned our lesson, father." Amelia corrected

"Yes sir." They agreed eagerly. Remus stared back at Amelia she was so confident he wondered if she would be so brazen if her father wasnt head master if she wasnt untouchable.

"Go get cleaned up." Albus begged. "But not you Amelia."

"Dont play favorites father." Amelia countered as the boys raced out of the head maesters office as if there was a dementor chasing them.

"What happened my darling?"

"They were picking on severus. All the time. I showed them a lesson." Amelia informed him. She chose to leave out the part where lucius helped her get all the proper equipment for her plan.

"Then why are you covered in paint too?" Albus countered.

"Sirius got the gun-"

"Gun!" Albus demanded shooting up

"-From me and then it was just chaos." Amelia shrugged.

"Gun?" Albus repeated.

"Paintball." She clarified.

"Go get cleaned up. No More of this Amelia please!" Albus begged

"They started it. They were messing with sevy. Hes my best friend. I couldnt let them win."

"You see when you bully the bully you become the bully."

"I dont think so." Amelia countered curious by his words.

"Amelia-"

"Im not the bully." Amelia decided. "Im the villain in this story."

Villain.

The words echoed in albus mind. Im the villain. Im the villain. Im the villain.

His amelia couldnt be the villain. She was good and pure and just trying to help her friend. There wasnt anything evil in that. There was nothing villainous about her.

Amelia and the monster gryffindors kept their distance but amelia knew it wouldnt last. She got the last word and she knew they wanted that honor.

"You gonna cry to amelia again?"

"Let her do the dirty work?"

"Such a coward snevilus."

"Leave me alone." Severus begged.

"Cant stand up for youself?"

"Im going to be late for potions." Severus begged. He wasnt a violent boy but those gryffindors made his blood boil.

"Hes going to run off and tell amelia. She wears the pants in that relationship." James decided. Severus didnt know what lily saw in them.

"You are never late or am I on time for once?" Amelia questioned

"You were not." Lucius assured.

"Then sevy," amelia tsked. "Am i rubbing off on you?"

"Just got lost in a book." Severus countered.

"Which one? Maybe i read it after you." Amelia decided

"I didnt say it was a good book." Severus countered panicing.

"Getting lost in a book is an indication that-"

"Ms Amelia?" The professor cut in.

"-one moment." Amelia held up a finger to slughorn. "-the book is better than good it is freaking amazing!"

"Ms Amelia am I interrupting social hour again?" Slughorn questioned

"Yes. Thank you for noticing."

"Sarcasm dear. Get your ingredients and get to work!"

"Ok you go first and i will copy you." Amelia half teased.

"Just follow the book." Lucius countered

"The book is incorrect." Severus assured. "It is better to crush this type of seed."

"Nerd."  Lucius added under his breath.

"Shut up he is the best in this class and you know it." Amelia countered. "I'm following your lead sev."

You gonna run and tell Amelia?

No. Severus could fight his own battles. He just didn't want to fight. Lily waved at him from down the hall before James came up nudging her along. Her smile grew when James wrapped his arm around her. Severus scowled. How could she tolerate that man?

He was distracted during the quidditch game. He zoomed back in to see Amelia racing through the sky and knocking James from his broom as she grabbed the snitch.

"Better luck next time loser." Amelia declared drifting down to the pitch.

"Ref! Come on! Illegal move!" James demanded.

"It was a clean hit get over yourself." Lucius instructed.

"Good game today Amelia. You are really amazing." Severus remarked.

"Thanks sevy- hey you would tell me if someone was bothering you right?" Amelia questioned.

"O-of course." Severus stammered out.

"Convincing. I will handle them."

"You can't!" Severus begged

"Why not?"

"You will only make it worse," Severus whispered

"Why?"

"Because a girl standing up for him is lame." Lucius answered.

"Tis not." Amelia corrected.

"Please i will handle them in due time ."
