He swept into the dungeons and headed to the front. I had taken a seat at the right-hand side of the room. close to where the entrance to my old bedroom was. He glanced around the room.
SNAPE: I am Professor Snape, you will ALL address me as Sir or Professor. If you don’t realise this is Potions GET OUT.
A few people shifted uncomfortably on their chairs.
SNAPE: This course is not and elective I must put up with you for 5 years. I advise you to listen, take notes and do exactly as I say. If not you will end up in the Hospital Wing or worse St Mungos. Gryffindors stand up. I want half on each side.
All the Gryffindors shifted and made their way to various new seats, I stayed where I was nobody was bothering with me anyway.
SNAPE: Better. However, the Slytherins I’m sure could have done better. He pointed to a Slytherin close to me. Prove my point and sit with the Gryffindor in front of you.
He got up quickly but didn’t seem impressed to be seated next to me. I was glaring at Professor Snape.
SNAPE: For that look 5 points from Gryffindor.
I could hear sighs of anger from the Gryffindors and smug retaliation from the Slytherins.
SNAPE: Now who can tell me what a potion is… anyone???
It was already written on my parchment I slid it to the Slytherin next to me. He raised his hand in the air cautiously.
SNAPE: Yes? Master?
KRIBB: Kribb… Sir… um a potion is a magical mixture of magical and mundane ingredients?
SNAPE: That it is. And can your partner write down the answer to my next question for you Mr Kribb?
I blushed.
CORMAC: but you haven’t asked one Sir.
KRIBB: err.. (looking at a paper in front of him) closed toed shoes, no jewellery… hair back…
“what does that say?”
ME: Dragonhide gloves (I whispered)
SNAPE: That’s correct, and can anyone tell me what Miss Snape is giving you?
KATIE: The safety precautions sir, along with goggles.
SNAPE: At least one Gryffindor is brave enough to speak for herself. We are out of time, next week return to these spots it will save time, and I want 10 inches of safety precautions as homework.
