With so much free time on my hands I decided to take a break from fighting to strengthen my relationship with my housemates before the break. Which was why we were currently having a snowball fight against the Hufflepuffs.
Grabbing a handful of tightly packed snow, I jumped over the barricade and sent a snowball at a Third Year Hufflepuff.
[You sense danger.]
I rolled out of the way of a barrage of snowballs, courtesy of a young witch that was waving around her wand. If I didn't know any better, I'd think the Puffs were still angry over their recent loss, as a majority of their attacks were 'accidentally' sent my way.
"I got your back," Terry shouted as he jumped over the snow fort waving his wand and sent his own set of snowballs at the enemy.
Slowly more and more people began to take out their wands.
Looks like Hufflepuff was determined to payback Ravenclaw for the match, as things started to rapidly escalate with both sides slowly drawing in more people.
What had at first become a friendly fight had descended into full blown war. The older students began to animate snowmen to charge at the enemy. Ice fortresses were built in an instant with cannons mounted on the walls. Eagles made out of snow would swoop down releasing snow 'eggs' on top of the Puffs, while snow badgers would dig pitfalls under unsuspecting Ravens.
Everyone was laughing as they dodged the various attacks, or at least they were until a large snow rabbit was summoned and started attacking everyone indiscriminately. If the ensuing chaos gave me enough time to escape, then it was just a happy coincidence.
Deserting the battle, I half dragged Terry into the Great Hall.
"I can still fight," he muttered a little woozy from being kicked 15ft in the air by the giant rabbit.
"Sure you can soldier," I told him as I retrieved two mugs from a tray which magically filled up with hot cocoa. Giving him one I took the other, only for it to be snatched from my fingers by Padma who was shivering from the cold.
She was closely followed by the rest of the First Year Ravenclaws.
"What? Had enough fun already?" I said after standing up and getting a cup for everyone.
Antony was the one that answered as he shook his head, "That's not it, things were getting too intense. Flitwick and Sprout joined the battle along with the older students."
Taking a sip from the cup I winced, "Oooh. Then it's a good thing we left when we did."
"I'll say, I happened to see one of the snowballs hit a passing McGonagall," Lisa commented.
No sooner than she had said that did a group of students walk into the Great Hall looking like they were on a mission. They went over to the Gryffindor table and gathered everyone there before heading back out again.
"Looks like things are just getting started," I told them with a sly smile.
Antony sipped from his cup and looked at them, "How much do you want to bet that the Slytherin will get involved now?"
"No need to bet," Padma said, pointing to the Slytherin table whose members were getting up one by one and heading to the exit.
Giving them a look I asked, "…So, is anyone ready for round two?"
They looked between each other before grinning,
"Well Ravenclaws stick together right?" Terry said with a smirk, "Birds of a feather and all that."
"Here! Here!" we chorused as we raised our mugs and downed the last of our drinks before running to the entrance.
-----------------
Packing the last of my clothes, I sat at the foot of my bed and went over my plans for the holidays.
Tomorrow I will be going back to the orphanage, or rather, for the first time.
I had already sent the caretaker a letter earlier that week so that they could pick me up. The address was thankfully written down on some of my belongings.
Seeing as I had no prior memory of this life, I wasn't sure how I was supposed to act. The few pictures and belongings I had were not enough for me to fill in the gaps, but luckily, I had a plan for that.
I admit that I was curious what my home situation was like, as it was such a stark difference to my previous life. Though honestly, I was more interested to see what the 1990s were like in this world. Just to what extent had the involvement of magic affected the world?
I was also hoping to stock up on certain items while I was there. Maybe get a burger or two.
Either way, I was ready. There was only one last thing I had to do.
-----------------
"Happy birthday!"
"Well, well, color impressed me. Do you remember?" Daphne said with a poorly concealed smile as she took the large square box from my hands, only to nearly drop it, surprised by the weight.
She gave me a questioning look before taking the box to a nearby desk and opening the lid. "Augh?"
Reaching inside she pulled out a puzzle box that was a cubic foot in size. It was beautifully crafted with each side having the face of a different animal. A ring of six keys sat at the bottom of the present box.
"Originally, I was planning to give you a necklace, but thought this might be more useful," I informed her.
"O-oh, I s-see?" she said with a brittle smile, "How thoughtful."
I gave a snort, as I took the puzzle box from her hands and then retrieved the keys, "Here, I'll start you off." I turned it so that the face with the eagle head was facing upwards, then I fiddled with some of the decorations before grabbing the eagle and twisting it a full 360 degree, where its mouth opened to reveal a keyhole.
