Albus's Diary (4)

 

Dear Diary,

Today, that total moron Agatha Parkinson burst into our dormitory and demanded for the Resurrection Stone. Tony Cyfrin, Will Ebenezer and Elijah Ezekiel all stared at Agatha as though she  was mad. Agatha started to search everyone’s beds and trunks and she even checked everyone’s quill holders. Then she pathetically screamed, “CRYFRIN, EBENZER, EZEKIEL, MALFOY AND POTTER”, she added extra emphasis on me and Scorpius’s surnames’, “IF YOU DON’T TELL ME WHERE YOU HID IT, I SWEAR,” she pointed at her chest where she had neatly pinned her prefect badge, “I WILL REPORT YOU TO SLUGHORN”. Then she stormed out of the room. After some time, Elijah spoke up, “She has some issues. She needs to be put in the mental section in St. Mungo’s”. Me and Albus laughed.  The two close mates, Tony Cyfrin and Will Ebenezer were discussing about what Agatha may be talking about. After an hour or two we went to bed for the day completely wiped out. We were sleeping like babies when suddenly we were awoken by a scream. We all got up, startled. Scorpius, in his morning grumpiness, asked stupidly, “Where’s the shrieking cat?”. I said, “Lumos” and guess who stood in front of me? The Intolerable Bighead AKA Agatha Parkinson. She had walked right into the trap Scorpius had set up last term just in case someone tried to attack us during night. I know that your thinking . Why didn’t she walk into it during day? Because it only activated during night. Anyway, the trap made the person hover in mid-air and binds every part of their body except their mouth so we know that someone is there. We call it ‘Medium Caeli 2.0’ because the first time Scorpius tried the spell me and Will ended up in mid-air and were wearing skirts which were so long that even after hovering six feet, they reached the ground. We were also wearing ridiculous shirts which had the words, ‘A Cauldron Full Of Boys Is Equal To Only The Core Of A Girl’s Wand’. We had to hover like that for one hour before Scorpius stopped laughing and cast the reverse spell. We smirked at one another and I got out of my bed and Scorpius, who was so happy that Agatha was going to get into trouble for sneaking out of her bed during night once and for all. Her eyes widened and she looked at us imploringly. We looked at her then at each other. We communicated silently and nodded. Scorpius advanced at her. He said in a quiet but dangerous voice, “Stop trying to make Albus’s life miserable and hard or McGonagall and Slughorn will hear about this.” She nodded vigorously. Scorpius muttered the counter- jinx. She let out a sigh of relief. Then Scorpius said, “ Fredrick Evelyn, Ora Rokurokubi, The Head Boy and Girl will hear about this, even though they’re in Gryffindor.” She nodded. Then she ran out of the room and we knew very well that she was about to shriek into her pillow cursing herself. We smirked again and jumped back into our beds. Now that Scorpius was awake there was no getting him to sleep again, I pulled out my set of wizard’s chess and now, the five of us, (me, Scorpius, Will, Tony and Elijah), are having a chess show off. Scorpius and Tony are doing the final round. The winner gets 10 gallons from each of us and the last round’s loser has to walk in the Great Hall wearing a skirt and a T- shirt that says , ‘A Cauldron Full Of Boys Is Equal To Only The Core Of A Girl’s Wand’, during dinner where every single student and staff member comes. I’ll tell you wins!

Yours truly

Albus Severus Potter
