The Marauders Next Gen - yr 2

The Marauders

The break between years didn't go as well as the girls had planned...

Stella's hair had been cut off in an elaborate prank which turned south very quickly. The girls had been staying at the Potters.

It was Christmas morning and the girls had decided to open all their presents and swap them around before the adults woke up.

"I still don't think this is a good idea." Shelby said as they crept down one of the many hallways in the beautiful house. The potters weren't overly rich but still richer than most. They finally got to the family room. Their presents lay under the large Christmas tree, which was covered in large blue globes and sparkling tinsel.

"Oh shut up Moony or your going to get us all caught!" Stella hissed as she picked up a rather large box. The girls gathered up all the gifts with their name than proceeded to snip the ribbons. Just as Emily was making her first snip the scissors rebounded off the protective charms and went straight through Stella's hair.

"OH NO!" Emily screamed. Shelby clamped her hand over her mouth trying to shut her up, but it was too late. Mrs and Mr Potter were rushing down the hall and into the room. They all gasped at Stella.

"What, why are you guys looking at me?" Stella says as she looks around at the group of people she had come to know as family. Mrs Potter didn't say anything but instead just reached for her own hair and ran her fingers through it. As if this was some sort of code Stella reached for her own hair. Upon noticing it wasn't there she ran for the bathroom.

She stood there looking at her reflection in the mirror. Half of her light orange hair still reached down her back but they other half! They other half had been chopped right under her ears. She grabbed at were her hair used to be and felt nothing. She screamed louder than she ever had before. She screamed louder than that time Emily had dumped snail slime on her hair, Or that time Shelby had clawed her across her stomach (Which she still was quite proud of those scars!).

The others rushed into the bathroom and stood there unsure what to do.
