Your POV:
Ron and I try repeatedly to fix his wand but It just won't work. He groans.
"Say it, I'm doomed"
Harry and I nod. "You're doomed"
"Hi Harry!" Says an unfamiliar voice
I look up and see a small boy standing in front of our table. He's got blond hair and holds a large camera to which he points at Harry and presses a button. A large blink of flash blinds which makes us all jump.
"I-I'm Colin Creevey. I'm in Gryffindor too" he says
"Oh, uh, hi Colin, Nice to meet you" Harry replies
An owl shrieks from the distance and most of the students look up. "Must be mail time" says Dean Thomas
"Ron, is that you're owl?" I ask him
We all look up again. The owl comes gliding down to our table before landing in a bowl of crisps. Ron shakes his head as the kids in the great hall laugh.
"Bloody birds a menace" Ron takes an envelope from the owls mouth and reads the back.
His expression quickly turns from normal to terrified. "Oh no!" He cries out
"Look everyone. Weasley's got himself a howler" says Seamus Finnegan excitedly
A few kids, particularly the Slytherins, begin laughing again.
"Go on Ron. I ignored one from my gran once...it was horrible" says Neville
Ron,who has all eyes on him, reluctantly tears open the red envelope with hands so shaky I'm surprised he actually managed to open it. I place my hand on his back. He grabs the letter and Mrs Weasley's screaming voice is suddenly heard around the great hall , which makes us all jump. "RONALD WEASLEY!" Ron tosses the letter down on the table but it keeps yelling, in fact, it kind of folds itself so that it makes it look as though the letter has a mouth. It lifts itself up off the table and makes itself level eye contact with Ron. "HOW DARE YOU STEAL THAT CAR! I AM ABSOLUTELY DISGUSTED! YOUR FATHERS NOW FACING AN ENQUIRY AT WORK AND IT IS ENTIRELY YOUR FAULT! IF YOU PUT ANOTHER TOE OUT OF LINE WE'LL BRING YOU STRAIGHT HOME!" Ron nods his head violently too scared to even speak. The letter turns to the side and speaks much softer. " Oh, and Ginny dear congratulations on making Gryffindor. Your father and I are so proud." Ginny looks to the ground embarrassed. The letter turns to Ron one last time, sticks it tongue out and then tears itself to shreds.
I look around the great hall and a few people begin sniggering. I look over at Ron who is still
speechless. "Uh, c'mon. Let's go, we don't wanna be late for DADA" Ron nods.
I grab his hand and begin walking out of the Great Hall, Hermione and Harry following behind.
"Are you ok?" I ask Ron, once in the Defence against the Dark Arts classroom.
"I'm ok" he says "thanks for that Y/n"
"No problem Ron" I reply
He pulls me into a hug and I hug him back.
The classroom shortly fills with more students and we take our seats anxiously waiting for class to begin. I sit next to Hermione. I look to the side and see Tia talking with Alex, she looks in my direction, I wink at her and then turn my attention back to the front.
"Let me introduce you to your New Defence against the dark arts teacher...me!" We look up to see Gilderoy Lockhart standing at the top of the staircase. I roll my eyes slightly and look around the room. Plastered to the walls are posters of none other that Lockhart himself. I roll my eyes again and turn my attention back to him. "Gilderoy Lockhart order of Merlin, Third Class. Honorary member of the Dark Force Defence League and five times winner...of Witch Weekly's Most Charming smile award. But I don't talk about that. I didn't get rid of the Bandon Banshee by smiling at him." He laughs at his own joke as does Hermione and a few other of the girls in the classroom. I catch Harry's eye and make a face of disgust, he smiles and makes one back. "Now be warned. It is my job to arm you against the foulest creatures known to wizardkimd" he taps his wand over a cage with red cloth over it which intrigues me. I straighten myself up and grab my wand just in case. "You may find yourselves facing your worst fears in this room.Know only that no harm can befall you whilst I am here. I must ask you not to scream. It might provoke them!"
Lockhart rips the cloth off the cage. Inside are a bunch of Cornish pixies squealing and struggling to get out.
"Cornish Pixies?" Seamus Finnegan scoffs
"Freshly caught Cornish Pixies" Lockhart adds defensively
Seamus laughs along with a few others.
"Laugh if you will Mr Finnegan, but pixies can be devilishly tricky little blighters. Let's see what you make of them"
He opens the cage door and out fly at least 30 pixies. I scream along with the others. Lockhart smiles for a moment before looking around fearfully. By now the class is completely chaotic. Kids are running around swatting pixies out of their way, trying to stop them tearing out their assignments.
"Ahh! Get off me!" I shout as a pixie starts pulling at my ear trying to lift me off the ground.
Ron turns around when I shout.
"Get off her!" He shouts as he hits the pixie away from me.
"Round them up they're only Pixies" Lockhart shouts
A scream from Neville makes us look up and we see two pixies dragging him up by his ears and hanging his robe onto the chandelier.
"Get off me!" Hermione cries as a pixie tugs on her hair
"Stop. Hold still!" Harry says before smacking the pixie with a book.
"Peskipixie Pesternomi!" Lockhart shouts. Nothing Happens. Shocker. A pixie steals his wand and he gasps.
The pixies continue destroying the classroom and Lockhart eventually scrams. He attempts to grab his headshot from a pixie who tries stealing it and once he fails he turns to us, the only ones left in the classroom, besides Neville who is still hanging from the chandelier.
"I'll ask you four just to nip the rest of them back into their cage"
Ron and Harry keep hitting pixies with books, unsuccessfully of course. "What do we do now?" Ron cries
I stand up and point my wand to the roof. "Immobulus!"
The pixies all slow down, so slow they're almost completely frozen. The others sigh in relief.
"How do you know all this?" Harry Asks me
"Studying Potter" I reply "lots of it"
He laughs, we gather our books and begin to leave. Neville sighs from the Chandelier. "Why is it always me?"
Poor Neville.
