Diary of a Slytherin Witch

Duel

I took out my wand,  she took out hers, we were going to duel.
"Levicorpus!" she yelled, quickly lunging her wand forward.

I felt myself get pulled upside down and taken higher. It felt a little like dangling upside down from the tree brach but not as pleasant. All my blood rushed to my head and everyone was laughing at me, even Millicent. After ten minutes, it stopped. Pansy was still laughing loudly and not looking at me, so I went in.

"Everte Statum!" I shouted.

She was pushed way past the crowed and smashed into the back wall. Everyone ran over, blood oozed down from her forehead. Everyone began to talk as I rushed to her side.

"Pansy?" I mumbled.

She jumped up, still looking half dead, cornered me and pointed her wand at me. I shut my eyes knowing she would kill me.
"Sectumsepera!" bellowed a voice.

I heard loud gasps and shrieks,  I opened my eyes. Lying in the floor was Pansy, bloody wounds on her torso. I looked at Draco who stood next to me, he was smiling.

"I never liked that two-faced cunt!" I heard him mumble.

I immediately realised he had killed her. Just then, Professor Snape barged in. He ran straight over to Pansy's body, Millicent was following right behind him.

"Merlin's beard!" he exclaimed examining her closely.

"Can you save her, Professor?" asked Millicent.

"I'm afraid it's too late," he replied. "She's dead!"

"Oh no!" cried Astoria.

There were many gasps as talking filled the air.

" Mr Malfoy," said Snape. "And Miss Thornrose, please accompany me to Professor Dumbledore's office."

I gulped and followed him. He told Dumbledore everything that had happened in his understanding. Dumbledore told him to leave and then listened to us. Once we had finished, he said: "Well, it sounds to me that it was a fight that got out of hand. Am I correct?"

"Yes, Professor," we replied.

"Well, I will be informing your parents about this," he said. "But nothing more. You may leave."

We walked out. I knew for sure that my parents would ground me for ten years and send me a howler as soon as they found out. I looked at Draco, he didn't seem to care.

"What will your parents do when they find out?" I asked him.

" Nothing, really," he replied. "They'do probably be proud, she was a Half-blood you, know."

"Really?" I asked. "But I thought you loved her, all those times she'd sneak off to your dorm at night for a snog."

"Yeah, well," Draco replied. "She was good for a snog but I'd never seriously date her. She had her pick of each of the boys in Slytherin, you know. She was a slut if you ask me."

I nodded. I never knew any of that about Pansy, non of it.

I feel really confused again. I'm happy because she was a bitch and deserved to die, yet sad because I spent some of the best moments in my life with her.
