Twisted Changes (Harry Potter Fanfic)

Chapter 3

During the feast, Harry started to talk to Draco and his friends, Crabbe and Goyle. But the feast was over sooner than Harry wanted. The house prefects lead them to the common rooms and explain where the dormitories were. Harry ended up sharing a dorm with Draco, Crabbe, Goyle and another boy who went by Blaise Zabini. No one really said a word as they got ready for bed after unpacking a bit. Once Harry got in bed, he was out like a light.
The next day they got their timetables (schedules) for the term at breakfast. All the first year Slytherins had the same classes since it was a small amount. They had three classes with Gryffindor and the others with Hufflepuff or Ravenclaw. Their first class of the day was potions so Harry, Draco, Crabbe, Goyle and Blaise all went back down to the dungeons to grab their bags and go to Professor Snape's classroom which was also in the dungeons. Everyone took their seats with Harry was stuck sitting next to the girl on the train who introduced herself as Hermione Granger. Once class officially started, Professor Snape made a huge entrance by storming into the room. He started off by saying what he could teach them. He noticed Harry wasn't paying attention but writing something down and Granger elbowed him in the side causing him to look up.
"Mr. Potter, our new celebrity." He sneered. "Tell me, what would I get if I added powdered root of asphodel to an infusion of wormwood?" Granger quickly raised her hand. Harry shrugs. "You don't know? Well, let's try again. Where, Mr. Potter, would you look if I asked you to find me a bezoar?" Granger's hand shoots up again.
"I don't know sir." Harry said.
"And what is the difference between Monkshood and Wolfbane?" Snape asked.
"I don't know, Sir."
"Pity. Clearly, fame isn't everything, is it, Mr. Potter?" Snape asked but Harry didn't answer. Even though Harry was in his own house, Snape didn't go easy on him.
"Class is dismissed." All the students left before anything else happens. Harry had Defense Against the Dark Arts with Professor Quirrell next then it was time for lunch.
Defense Against the Dark Arts passed quickly, especially when it's hard to understand when the professor continuously shudders. All the students headed towards the Great Hall for lunch and to get mail plus talk to friends from different years. Harry continue to talk to his friends in his house before looking at the Gryffindor table as a small puff of smoke flew up by the boy he knew as Ronald, or Ron, Weasley from the train station and on the train. There was a boy who had short brown hair and had some ashes spread around on his face. The boy said something to the Weasley causing him to look Harry's way causing Harry to look away.
"Come on Harry." Draco said leading the way to where they were were being taught for the first flying lesson.
"Good afternoon, class." Madam Hooch said.
"Good afternoon, Madam Hooch." The whole class said.
"Good afternoon, Amanda, good afternoon." She said. "Welcome to your first flying lesson. Well, what are you waiting for? Everyone step up to the left side of their broomstick. Come on now, hurry up. Stick your right hand over the broom and say, Up!"
"Up!" The class said. Harry's broom flew into his hand.
"Whoa." Harry said as Granger stares while the class continues.
"Up!" Draco said and the broomstick flies up and he smugly grins.
"With feeling!" Madam Hooch said.
"Up. Up. Up. Up." Granger constantly said.
"Up!!" Ron said as his broom flies up and conks him on the nose. "Ow!" Harry laughs from beside him. "Shut up, Harry." Ron said but laughs as well.
"Now, once you've got hold of your broom, I want you to mount it. And grip it tight, you don't want to be sliding off the end." Madam Hooch said and paused. "When I blow my whistle, I want each of you to kick off from the ground, hard. Keep your broom steady, hover for a moment, and then lean forward slightly and touch back down. On my whistle...3...2..." She blew her whistle.
Neville immediately lifts off looking quite frightened. "Oh..." Neville said.
"Mr. Longbottom." Madam Hooch said.
"Neville, what are you doing?" A random girl said.
"Neville...Neville..." A few students said.
"We're not supposed to take off, yet." A random boy said.
Neville begins soaring away. "M-M-Mr. Longbottom Mr. Longbottom!" Madam Hooch said.
"AHH!" Neville yelled frighten.
"Mr. Longbottom!" Madam Hooch yelled.
Neville soars away. "Down! Down! Ahhhh!" Neville said trying to make his broom to go down.
"Neville!" Ron said shouting.
"Help!!!" Neville yelled.
"Come back down this instant!" Madam Hooch said trying to get Neville to come down.
"AHH!" Neville yelled still really frightened.
He soars through the sky and hits a wall, conking along it and then swooping off. All the while, he is screaming. He begins to zoom back towards the group of students. Hooch holds out her wand to stop him.
"Help!"
"Mr. Longbottom!" Madam Hooch said and Neville approaches. The students scatter and Hooch dives out of the way. Neville goes through the scatter and up a tower.
"Ahhhh! Whoa! Ahhh!" He zooms past a statue of a man with a sharp spear. Neville's cloak catches on it. He is flipped off the broom and hangs there. "Oh. Ah...help!" He wavers, then the cloak rips, and he falls, catching on a torch, but then slipping out and falling to the ground. "Ahh!"
"Everyone out of the way!" She runs through the group, and they scatter. "Come on, get up."
"Is he alright?" The girl from earlier asked.
"Ow ow ow ow." Neville said.
"Oh, oh, oh, oh dear. It's a broken wrist. Tch, tch, tch. Good boy, come on now, up you get." Draco reaches down and grabs Neville's Remembrall, which has fallen. Hooch begins to lead Neville away with her. "Everyone's to keep their feet firmly on the ground while I take Mr. Longbottom to the hospital wing. Understand? If I see a single broom in the air, the one riding it will find themselves out of Hogwarts before they can say, Quidditch." She said as she exited.
"Look what I got here." Draco said tossing the remembrall and caught it afterwards.
"Give it here Draco." Harry spoke up. Watching what just happened with Longbottom, he felt back.
"Sticking up for the Gryffindor now?" Draco said getting on his broom and kicked off the ground. "Only if you can't get it." He added challenging Harry, who quickly got on his broom.
"No, Madam Hooch told us to stay on the ground." The girl who Harry met on the train said glaring at Harry who completely ignored her and kicked off the ground on his own broom. Draco threw it as far as he could sending Harry flying towards one of the windows in which Professor McGonagoll and Professor Snape watched the whole thing. 
"HARRY POTTER!" Professor Snape called out across the field at the black haired boy who just recently landed back on the ground. Harry swallowed hard knowing he was in trouble and walked over to the professor not wanting to be in anymore trouble. "Come with me." Snape took him to see another Slytherin student who was the captain of the Slytherin Quidditch team and told him that Harry was to be the new seeker.
