The Sweet Slytherin

Hoping To Find The Misterious Pan Player

Quill Pal wasn't the only one I was getting notes from, I was now receiving notes from Cottontail, SilverSpoon, SnitchSeeker, and GigglePuss, about my music. I think I've adopted the character Pan Player into my blood, because as far as anyone knows, I'm just a girl who likes playing music for everyone to hear and be happy with. Alas, that hard to do when you have a pan the size of your pinky finger, if that. That's when I got a note from a new spectator.

Pan Player,
Who are you? All these first years have me thinking I know who you are, but... I'm not sure. I need to know who you are. You remind me of a girl that hates me.
-SlytherinSorry

I shook my head.

SlytherinSorry,
What a fitting name. Unfortunately I have said many times, I don't reveal my name or year. I just play music. It seems to be the only thing I'm known for. You want to know who I am, then you're going to have to hunt me down and find me. Until then, I'll be here, playing my pan, and sending sweet music to the many that truly want to hear it.
-Pan Player

I sent my reply to SlytherinSorry and then played a tune that was nice and soothing. Midnight returned and she had many notes.

Pan Player,
Wow. You are really serious about keeping your Identity a secret. Well
At least we all still have your music.
-Quill Pal

Pan Player,
Why don't you just tell us who you are? We want to give you credit for what you deserve.
-SilverSpoon 

Pan Player,
Honestly, I just find it nice that you respond, and that you listen. I needed a friend like you to talk to. But it would be nice to know who you are.

-GigglePuss

Pan Player,
Look. You are very talented. But we all want to know who's behind the name Pan Player. Just spill already, before things get ugly.

-CottonTail

Pan Player,
Would you appreciate a bigger pan to play? I'll buy you one if you tell me who you are.

-SnitchSeeker

I laughed. There is no why I'm spilling at thing.

SnitchSeeker,
I can always buy my own Pan, I'm not homeless, thanks for the offer but, polite pass.

CottonTail,
Be a dear, Don't make me spill my guts, I did that just a week ago and it wasn't very pleasant

GigglePuss,
I enjoy your notes too. But as I've said many times over, I don't say my name

SilverSpoon,
Thank you, but no thank you, I think I like things just the way they are

Quill Pal,
But of course. I can't just go around saying "My name is Pan Player, the pleasure is all mine" now can I? I'd prefer to keep it on the down low. If you would be so kind.

-Pan Player

And with that I attached the note to Midnight and continued playing. But Midnight returned a second later.

Pan Player,
Be prepared to go into hiding because I will not rest until I've figured out who you are. Good luck. I'd start running.
-SlytherinSorry

I scoffed at this last note.

SlytherinSorry,
Try all you might, I'll be waiting when you give up. I don't expect you to figure out who I am considering I am a whole different person when I write. Now do be so kind and don't come looking for me. Because I can assure you, as I have many times in the past, with my spectators. I won't be there when you come. I'd hate to disappoint you but, that's how it must be.

-Pan Player

I smirked at the last note, and attached it the Midnights foot. I checked my watch. Best be off if I don't want anyone to find me. The bell is to ring at any moment. And I'm starving. I ran down the steps, and only stopped to catch my breath when I got to the dining room to eat. I saw Harry, Hermione, and Ron and quickly scurried over.

"Guys. I'm going to tell you something, but you have to promise not to tell anyone" I stated. They nodded and I explained everything.
************************

"So just to be clear, they are going to be looking for Pan Player, and won't rest till they find her?" Hermione asked. I nodded, to hungry to speak.

"Well actually... It just SlytherinSorry, who's after me. But I'm pretty sure they are encouraging the others to help them." I stated thickly through my food.

"And how can we help?" Hermione asked. Harry and Ron nodded.

"Tomorrow starts the winter break, and I can almost guarantee that they will be looking for me. Here's the plan" I started. I hoped that this was just crazy enough to work.
