Metamor-F**k you

|Year 4| {19}

The Three Broomsticks were full. It was a fight to get a table in the corner and they had to wait almost an hour to even get a butterbeer. Samantha just felt out of place and Evans leg pressed against hers didn't make it any better.
"Let's make this a little stronger!", he suggested and got a file outof his pocket. It was filled with a green substance.
"I made it, I'm quite good at herbology", he said, winking at Samantha.
"One drop of this bad boy is more effective than 7 shots of Firewhiskey! But if you take too much, you will actually be on fire." He laughed and Sky giggled with him.
"Let's try it!", she said excitedly, licking her lips. Evan carefully put a drop in each of their drinks and Samantha was just too scared they would laugh at herto say no.
"Cheers!"
"To this Double Date", Reg laughed. The beer glasses clank against each other and all of them took a big sip.

The four of them drank, talked, laughed and had a great time for the evening. After a while, the tension fell off Samantha and she actually enjoyed herself. She just felt so free, free of guilt.

"Hey, you guys aren't even that bad. Hey, Samantha? Can I just say that I love your green hair?", Evan slurred and put an arm around her. Samantha knew that she would have never allowed this sober, but now it felt very good.

"Awe thank you. And I like your eyes."

Sky clapped her hands. "This went so well! I am such a great match maker."

"Let's go up to the castle and prank some Gryffindors", Regulus suggested and everyone cheered.

It was a very long way up to the castle, but also a very fun one. Regulus and Evan both picked up their girls and had a race, which Evan won by a long shot. The girls giggled the whole time and even kissed at one point. The boys high fived each other.

When they finally reached the Great Hall, they were all out of breath, but happier than ever. Hand in hand, both couples walked through the corridors and cursed some students that were still roaming the school.

Samantha didn't even realize how, but suddenly she found herself in a n empty classroom with Evan Rosier. Only now did she notice how big this boy was. He smiled and came closer, but she couldn't back up anymore.

"Regulus and Sky think that I like you, but I have a gift. I know traitors and you are one. I can see it in your eyes. You don't enjoy the torturing. But you see? Those who don't like to torture want to be tortured.

"Evan, please! Sev is my brother. What are you doing?"

"Oh boho. Gonna cry for help now? Evan took both his hands and wrapped them around her neck. Samantha kicked him as hard as she could, but he just laughed. His hands wrapped tighter and Samantha could see the blood lust in his eyes. She couldn't breathe anymore and her hair changed into a pitch black, representing her terror.

"Please! Stop", she croaked, but it seemed to inspire Evan even more.

Suddenly, the door bust open and someone shouted "Stupor!" Evan got pulled off his feet and crashed into some tables, far away from Samantha. She could stand anymore and fell to the ground, her hair changing back to green.

Sirius, who had come into the room, closed the door and carefully walked to the girl on the floor. He didn't know why he came here in the first place, but he was glad he did. He sat next to Samantha and put her head onto his lap. There were horrible bruises around her neck and breathing seemed very hard for her.

Samantha was barely conscious, but she would recognise these grey eyes anywhere. "Reg ?You came. Thank you", she said before closing her eyes and wrapping an arm around the boy holding her. Now that he was here, she felt safe.

Sirius petted her head and smiled. Even though she had just called him his brothers name, she just looked so peaceful sleeping. Suddenly, her hair changed to pink. Sirius furrowed his eyebrows. "What the?"

Samantha woke up in her bed with the worst hangover. She remembered nothing from last night, but her throat felt kind of sore.

"Sky?", she croaked. "Are you there?"

Nobody answered. She felt something in her hand, it was a piece of paper. With curiosity, Samantha unfold it and read :

Could you maybe turn into an animal by the Whomping Willow and follow the black dog that you see next to it? He will take you to a safe place near the Forbidden Forrest. He is a friend and so am I

- Padfoot

Samantha was confused. What did that mean? What happened yesterday? How did anyone know that she could turn into an animal?

She was very suspicious, but in the end, her curiosity was bigger and she got up to do what it said on the note. Who was this black dog and who was Padfoot?
