Stone [Cedric Diggory]✔

harmless?!

Chrysoprase sits with Cedric's head in her lap as Harry Potter approaches them. While her friends point out their new badges, switching from 'Supporting Diggory' to 'Potter stinks', ever so often. She had frozen the image to stay as 'Support Diggory' as to not come across as a bully since.. well.. the entire damn school was currently out for poor, poor Potter.
"Can I talk to you for a moment?" Cedric rises from his comfortable position. "Uhm.. sure." "I'm going over to Blaise and the others.", Chrys smiles, pecks Cedrics cheek and then leaves the two Hogwarts champions to talk amongst themselves. Instead sliding into place next to Blaise who, like Theo, is sitting at the root of the tree and has already been watching her approach. "Hey you.", Chrys smiles and he gives her a second long lasting smile back.
"What are you up to?" "I've been looking into potions. You don't possibly know the ingredients for the draught of the living dead? Or at least a good book where I can research the potion." "Book advice would be 'Herr Kleins großes Buch der Zaubertränke'. But since thats in german and I highly doubt you can understand the next thing I think I'll just give you this. You are lucky I forgot to take my notes out of my pockets." She hands Blaise a scrawl of parchmentpaper completely filled with bulletpoints, ideal for writing an essay. "You are a life saver." "Oh please. As if Snape would even narrow his eyes at any of you.. He'd be more likely to blame any random Gryffindor for your failure to complete your work." "You've got me there."

"Why so tense, Potter?"

Chrys slaps a hand against her forehead. "Merlin... Dracoooo..", she silently whines, while Blaise inwardly laughs, turning slightly to enjoy the show.

"My father and I have a bet, you see. I don't think you're gonna last ten minutes in this tournament."
Draco jumps down from the tree and, followed by Crabbe, Goyle and a few others he walks up to the bespectacled boy.
"He disagrees. He says you won't last five."
"I don't give a damn what your father thinks, Malfoy.", Potter says, pushing back Draco and stepping up into his face. Chrys readys herself to, if necessary, punch the Gryffindor in the face, but halts.
"Do they really?" Blaise nods slightly. He really wanted Potter to get one step closer. If only to see their badger attack him.

".... He is vile and cruel. And you are pathetic." Turning around Potter walks off.
"Pathetic?!" Pulling his wand Draco is all about to hex the Gryffindor when suddenly Moody calls out loudly "I'll teach you to cast when someone's back is turned!" and transfigures poor Draco into a ferret that he wildly levitates around. The small twig Chrys was twirling absently between her fingers a moment earlier snaps as anger overwhelms her.
She grasps her wand tightly in her hand. "Professor Moody! What are you doing?!", McGonagall asks in a confused tone. "Teaching." "Is... Is that a student?" Her eyes widen. "Technically it's a ferret." Quickly Moody shoves the Draco ferret down Crabbes pants and by now Chrys's amber eyes turned to coal, so darkened by anger are they. She marches through the laughing students and with a flick of her wand she returns Draco to normal.
"My father will hear about this!"
"Is that a threat?! I know stories about your father that would curl even your greasy hair, boy! It doesn't end here!" Moody hunts after him, but suddenly the Hufflepuff appears in front of him. "He isn't threatening but I am. Since my father is your boss I will have your ass handed to you on a silver platter. Do not, and I mean, do absolutely not think that I wouldn't honestly consider having you fired without notice right now! Despite you being a pain in the ass for them, they still own yours, Moody. And I suggest you learn this very well. You can piss on many legs and tell them it's raining. But I am a Lapis. And we put dogs that don't listen in chains." The words coming out of the Hufflepuffs are really and honestly threatening. Even for the auror in front of her. "You side with Slytherins, girl? You are as harmless as one can be." "I am anything but harmless. And if not for me possessing more maturity and intellectual capacity than your spell damaged self I would have put you in a full body lock and thrown you into the Black lake! And about the other part... Still better than the alternative. Draco is my friend, much like many others in that house and Helga help you if I ever even hear as much as a whispered complaint about you from one of them." The girl, in an very unladylike manner, spits right in front of his shoes and turns around. Blaise has gotten up in the meantime and now joins her.
"That was bloody amazing.", he tells her, neither of them really noticing her boyfriend and Hufflepuff friends gaping after them, or Moody pulling a face behind her back.
"Sometimes I am so close to using some really, really bad hexes. And I don't care that he's a bloody teacher.", the girl grumbles. Her eyes spot her blond friend. "Draco!" Hurrying towards him she quickly hugs him and gives him a soft smile. "Are you okay?" "You should have been there. Chrys just threatened Moody with setting the ministry onto him and having him fired. Salazar, it was glorious." "You did?" "Don't friends look out for each other? You did take care of me, didn't you?" He hugs her back, then gives her his perfected Malfoy grin. "So now the last people in Hogwarts know you're one of us?" "I think that already everyone knows. I mean... I am around you bunch all the time when I'm not with Cedric. Speaking of him. I probably should go find him.. I just went over to you when Potter came to talk to him." Stepping away Chrys turns around and starts walking off when she freezes in her steps. "Oh yeah. And if Moody tries to threaten you again.. tell me and I'll make my threat a reality."
With that she finally leaves. "Merlin am I glad she is our friend.", Theo mumbles. His friends look at him, then nod. "We'd be as good as dead by now."
