Yay! Here's the new chapter!
________________________________________________________________________________________
Today is Wednesday, which meant we were going to have our History of Magic and Herbology classes for the first time this week. And I was excited, but not because of the History class, which I already knew was going to be a boring and monotonus class, but because of the Herbology class, which, like Astronomy, is something that fascinated me. Like the stars and planets in Astronomy, the plants and herbs in Herbology make me very curious and excited to study them, and some may find it boring or too simple, but for me this is the most mysterious and unexplored kind of magic that I've seen even now, together with the magical creatures.
But I'm not the only one excited about the Herbology class. Anthony is as excited as I am, or even more, since since he woke up he's been talking about herbs, magic fungi and their fertilizers. And at some point Terry got tired of listening to Anthony talking about magical plants and threatened to gag him and feed him to Giant Squid, and just then Anthony stopped his lectures.
_____________________________________________________________________
Our classes started with two periods of History of Magic, and already knowing that the class would be nothing more than a monotonous and boring lecture by Professor Cuthbert Binns, who happened to be a ghost, I already decided to study the material on my own by the books.
The class was just as boring and tedious as described in the franchise books, and I actually almost fell asleep at times, even though I wasn't paying attention to Professor Binns' sleepy voice. And Anthony who was next to me, who was already known for his laziness, ended up falling asleep within the first 6 minutes of class, and I, like the evil genius that I am, used a paint spell to draw his face.
'Heh, this is what you get for sleeping next to me' I thought smiling mischievously. And Terry, who was at the table behind me, snorted as he clapped his hands over his mouth to stop himself from laughing.
_______________________________________________________________________
"Yawn! That class was soooo boring" Anthony said to us as we walked down the hall towards the Great Hall for lunch.
"Yes…sooo boring" I commented amusedly. Using my occlumency to keep me from smiling as I looked at his face, which was now covered in 'makeup' making him look like a mime.
"Uhum" Terry agreed without speaking, as he knew that if he opened his mouth, he would eventually burst into laughter.
"You guys are acting weird…" Anthony said looking at us strangely, to which we just turned our faces and pretended innocence. And seeing that Anthony continued to look at us suspiciously, I decided to change the subject.
"So Anthony, excited for Herbology?" I asked him to distract him, which apparently worked as his face lit up and he started talking again about the magical plants, and this time Terry didn't even try to stop him.
Anthony was so focused on talking about Herbology that he didn't even notice that people were looking at him strangely or laughing as we walked down the hall, and this continued until we reached the Great Hall.
_________________________________________________________________________
Before we entered the Great Hall I cast a spell for the last part of the prank. That spell would take away Anthony's voice, and whatever he was going to express would appear in shapes and symbols above him, like the Acme coyote with its plates. And with everything ready, we enter in the Great Hall.
As soon as we entered the Great Hall, a few people looked at us, or more specifically, at Anthony. And a second later the Great Hall burst into laughter and whispers.
Anthony looked at everyone laughing and pointing in his direction confused, and that was pretty obvious to see since he had a question mark floating above his head. And behind him Terry bit his lip trying not to laugh.
I looked at the staff table to see their reactions. Professor Snape was scowling as usual, Professor Quirrell was confused and scared for some reason, Professor Sprout was laughing with her hands over her mouth, Professor Flitwick was laughing so hard he even fell out of his seat, Professor McGonagall was with her usual stern appearance, but I could still see a smile trying to escape her lips, and through her emotions I could feel the amusement coming from her, and lastly Headmaster Dumbledore, who was smiling amusedly at all this mess, happily dancing in his eyes, and when our eyes met I winked at him with a mischievous grin on my face.
I then looked over to the Gryffindor table, looking for the resident playful twins, and when I found them, I realized they were laughing and looking at Anthony in wonder.
We continued to walk to the Ravenclaw table and then sat down. As we sat down, some Ravenclaws started to point and laugh at Anthony or look at him strangely, further confusing Anthony.
"?" Anthony then turned to us questioningly. He then tried to say something, but no noise came out of his mouth, and if we looked over his head, we would see several symbols appearing one after another.
And at that moment, Terry couldn't take it anymore and started to laugh, leaving Anthony even more confused and frustrated. And I, like the good friend that I am, decided to end Anthony's confusion. I then took a plate off the table and gave it to Anthony, who took the plate confused…that is, until he looked at his reflection on the plate.
"!" Anthony exclaimed shocked…well, at least I think that's what the exclamation mark floating above his head meant.
"Hahahahahahah" and at this point Terry laughed even harder as he laid his head on the table and hit it with his hand repeatedly. And at that moment even I couldn't take it anymore.
"Hahahahahahahahahah" I then started laughing uncontrollably while holding my sides. Ignoring the dozens of symbols that appeared above Anthony, who was staring at us.
Anthony then looked at me with realization. And then he started pointing at me as the symbols above his head flashed by.
"!#¿^Г`¬%\*&@"
"I don't understand what you're talking about," I said innocently. Which only earned me a fierce glare from Anthony, "Okay I'll cancel the prank" I said with my hands up in surrender.
I then took my wand from its holster and pointed it at Anthony, canceling the two spells I had cast on him.
"Phew! I couldn't take it anymore not being able to talk" Anthony said relieved as the mimic spell passed, looking at his reflection and seeing his face without any makeup.
"And that was the best part of the spell" Terry whispered to me. He then looked at Anthony, "You weren't that bad, Mr. Mimic," Terry commented amusedly.
"Haha" Anthony chuckled lamely, "I want to see your face when Ethan decided to do the same to you"
When Anthony said this, Terry paused for a moment as realization hit him. He then started looking at me fearfully, "Heh...you wouldn't do that to me...right Ethan?" he asked me nervously, to which I just started whistling innocently, much to Terry's despair and Anthony's satisfaction.
End.
