She was walking down the spiraling staircase, her heeled shoes echoing as they hit the stones. Had she not have said anything she wouldn't have been in this awkward predicament. She turned the corner her long legs carrying her with an elegant stride. She poised herself in front of a dark grey wooded door, she knocked lightly on its heavy exterior. She was met with a muffled " Come in".
She gently pushed the door open walking over to Professor Snape vigoriously.
" first day in, and already commenting on my work ethic, you must either be a real dolt, or just plainly looking to cause trouble. Your first task is to finish this stack of papers I'm grading, if you fail to finish, you'll gain another two days of detention, am I clear".
She sneered at him, her blue eyes narrowed on his form, " perfectly, as a crystal".
She grabbed the papers and sat down at a desk in the far corner. She began reading the essays, flying through them with a precision and accuracy Snape had not seen since......Lily.
She slammed the last one down on the pile startling him out of his reverie, he sneered at her loud attitude.
" Im finished, what next" she tilted her eyebrow at him.
" since you were so keen on finishing so early, you can rearrange the potions cabinet by alphabet, then seperate by poisonous, healers, and sereums".
She looked at him completely baffled, that process would take her all night, longer if possible. She could feel her temperature spiking, her hands beggining to heat up a small bright light glowing in her palm. Severus noticed it and looked at her palm in shock.
" What is that? Are you something other than a wizard?"
She looked at him disgust, " No I'm a pureblood, but I also have the ability to bend fire at will, it only activates when someone really pisses me off".
His face straightened out, he nodded in understanding. He shooed her back to work.
She didn't finish until 1 am, she shuffled up to her dormitory room exhausted and extremely unhappy ....
