"Whoooo!" Sasporilla smiled. "I made it!"
"I can't believe they didn't make you captain!" Karry protested. "Why me."
"Because you're brilliant!" Penny said. "You beat me very creatively."
"Yes!" Sassy said. "You think fast on your feet. Look at me, I got cut open and shut down."
"You were being attacked for real by a psycho." Karry said. "Maybe we should approach dueling from that mind set."
"How do you mean?" Penny asked.
"Always assume your opponent is trying to kill you." Karry smiled.
"You are brilliant." Sassy said. "If I thought that of her I'd have fought differently."
"Me too." Penny said. "That Karry, is why they made you Captain."
Lunch consisted of American treats. Hamburgers, hot dogs, fried chicken and a selection of rich barbequed foods. Professor Lee-Ashwolf was in heaven as she munched away on the familiar foods of her homeland up at the bead table.
Sassy walked up to the head table and addressed her friend. "Excuse me Professor Lee-Ashwolf."
"Sup Sassy." Lyra said with her mouth full.
"Dude if you keep eating like that you're going to need a larger wardrobe with a hole in your pants for your curly tail to stick out!"
"Go sit down you nut!" Lyra laughed.
As Sasporilla walked away laughing she felt a chicken leg hit her in the back of the head.
Sassy turned as Lyra looked away as if she was trying to see who through it.
"Oh ho ho." Sassy smirked. "It's on!"
Sasporilla grabbed a hamburger from the pile and flung it at Lyra. Lyra ducked and tossed her piece of pecan pie at Sasporilla, who dodged. The pie struck Karry in the side of the head. Karry looked at Lyra and waved her wand hurling the contents of a crock of baked beans at Lyra which locked on to the Professor like a heat seeking missile.
Someone yelled "FOOD FIGHT!" and the battle was on and no one was safe. This food fight would become legendary leaving stains in the great hall for generations.
It started with a piece of fried chicken and ended with a piece of fried chicken. The Headmistress entered the great hall and gasped at the sight of food flying in all directions. A piece of fried chicken hit her right in her gaping gob. Professor McGonagall was not impressed. She placed her wand up to her neck as she spat out the chicken.
"Stop this at once!" She ordered nearly deafening the children.
"Oh shoot." Lyra said.... sort of.
"What is going on here?" Professor McGonagall screamed. "You're behavior is UNACCEPTABLE! You're like a mob of marauding monkeys making mischief, oblivious to your own obvious offences! I expect each one of you to go change into clean robes and report here for detention after classes to help clean up this mess."
A donut fell from the ceiling and landed on the tip of Professor McGonagalls hat. Nobody dared laugh but Sasporilla and Lyra who found it hilarious.
"As for you Ms.Lee-Ashwolf I believe I will be reinstating the five thousand nine hundred and seventy two hours of detention you owe me!" Professor McGonagall growled. "You will report here every afternoon until I find nothing left for you to clean!"
"Headmistress I have something to say." Lyra said leaning in. "It was worth it just to Sasporilla smile for the first time all year!"
Zac walked Karry to Defence Against the Dark Arts class. The young friends were officially a couple again. They held hands as the walked dow the Hogwarts hall towards class.
"I'm glad we made up." Zac said.
"Me too." Karry smiled.
"I just wish we could fix Korry." Zac said concerned for his friend. "This Asenamourus potion is pretty powerful magic."
"I'm hoping we're not to late." Karry said. "I feel it's probably already to late for him to fix the damage he's done to Sasporilla."
"She knows it's not his fault." Zac said.
"Yes," Karry agreed, "but the things that have been said, the things that have been done? Spell or not they leave scars, break trusts, sever bonds."
"Well this it." Zac smiled outside the Defence against the dark arts room. "Have a good class."
"I plan to." Karry said giving Zac a kiss.
The frumpy girl who lived alone in the dorms pushed passed into the class room.
"She's a weird one." Zac said.
"I know." Karry said. "I've never heard her speak. Don't think I've ever even seen her face. She's always got that mess of dark hair in front of it."
"People say shes a deaf mute." Zac said.
"I've heard that rumor." Karry smiled. "Well I have to go."
Zac waved as he walked off to class. Karry watched him walk away. As she turned to go into class she dropped a small piece of paper. Karry didn't recognize it or know where it came from. She picked it up and read it. "Old magic, the most powerful magic."
Karry went in to class. The weird girl sat in her usual seat at the back of the room in the far corner. Karry walked over to her desk.
"Excuse me." Karry said.
The girl turned to look in Karrys direction, but her face was well hidden behind that mane of dark hair.
"If you need to push past some one you need to say excuse me." Karry said.
The girl put her head down on the desk but remained silent. Karry through her hands up and walked away in frustration. The strange girl with dark hair made a kissy sound. Karry stopped and turned but the girl was still head down on the desk.
"Are you kissing your desk?" Karry asked very weirded out. "You are strange."
"Ok take your seats." Professor Lee-Ashwolf said.
Karry took her seat and looked up seeing the professor was still covered in food stains.
"Good to see everyone has changed into clean robes." Lyra said. "As you can see I have not as message from the Headmistress not to encourage you to act like the little animals you are."
Karry covered her wide smile. There were still brown baked beans in the professors hair and a mustard stain on her right cheek.
"Todays lesson," professor Lee-Ashwolf began, "silent spell casting. There is actually no need to announce your spell. The verbal element of a cast spell can just as easily by thought as you wave your wands."
The professor swished and flicked her wand and a crock of baked beans levitated from behind her desk and across the class and came to a halt over Karrys head.
"The secret of course like all spells is not to loose your concentration." Lyra said smiling. "Who talked to the girl in the back? Everyone is to just leave her alone. Do you all understand me?"
The class nodded.
"Good now where was I?" Lyra asked, the crock of beans teetering over Karrys head. "Oh yes. I better bring those beans back. Wouldn't want them dumping on anyone's head would we."
Karry was finally able to take a breath as the crock removed itself from above her head and floated back to the professors desk.
"Now everyone practice levitating your text books, without verbalization!" Professor Lee-Ashwolf said.
Books raised from desks. The professor was most impressed few could achieve silent spell casting first time out. Most of these students fought in the battle of Hogwarts, so they knew what spell focus was all about. Lyra turned her back for one minute to wipe some of the mustard from her face before it became to crusty.
The crock of beans lifted silently from the desk and hovered above Professor Lee-Ashwolf. Karry turned to see the weird girl with dark hair was the student levitating the beans. Karry shook her head no. The girl nodded her head yes. Karry tried waving her off, but the weird girls mind was made up. The crock dumped over and poured baked beans onto the head of professor Lee-Ashwolf. Lyra looked up as the crock dropped to the floor and broke. Karry sat there stunned. Tbe weird girl dropped her head back down to the table.
"Miss Curtiss!" Professor Lee-Ashwolf said. "Did you find that funny?"
"I didn't..." Karry said.
"Well I'm impressed, I found it funny!" Lyra laughed. "But you get to stay after class with me! Detention!"
After class Karry stayed in her seat and pondered the note she'd found before class. "Old magic, the most powerful magic."
"Professor?" Karry asked. "What is the oldest most powerful magic?"
"That is a very good question." Lyra said. "I'll answer it by asking you what is the one thing witches, wizards, and muggles alike all feel and share. You see it in a mothers eyes and her babies eyes alike. It is carried on a word, felt in the heart and sealed with a kiss?"
"Love?" Karry asked.
"Love!" Lyra said. "Why do you think so many old dark spells are undone by a kiss?"
"Oh my god!" Karry yelled. "Of course. It's worth a try! You're brilliant professor!"
Karry gathered her things and got up to leave.
"Where do ylu think you're going miss Curtiss?" Professor Lee-Ashwolf asked. "You're in detention remember."
"Excuse me professor but I might of hit on how to break my brothers bewitchment." Karry said standing to leave. "I'll do a full week of detention if you let me leave now."
"Go!" Lyra smiled. "I'm sick of you all ready!"
Karry ran faster than she had ever run before. She knew everyone would be in the great hall serving detention for the great food fight. Sassy was nearest the hall wiping barbecue sauce off door frame.
"Sasporilla!" Karry yelled. "Sassy!"
Sasporilla turned around to see her best friend running down the hall at her. Karry stopped and put her hands on Sasporillas shoulders.
"Where's Korry." Karry asked.
"Inside cleaning." Sasporilla said concerned.
"I may have figured out how to break the spell without the antidote." Karry smiled.
"Tell me how." Sasporilla asked.
"Tough Question." Karry asked. "Do you love my brother."
"I really like him." Sasporilla blushed.
"Sasporilla I need you to be honest with me!" Karry insisted.
"Ok!" Sassy said throwing her head back dying of embarrassment. "Yes I love him. I have from the day we met. Ok?"
Karry hugged her friend. "I need you to kiss him. A loving kiss."
"What?" Sassy said. "He won't want that."
"It's old magic." Karry said. "Your love just might break the bewitchment."
The girls walked over to Korry who was busy pulling bits of hot dogs out of the candelabras.
"Korry." Sasporilla said.
Korry turned around exasperated. "What?"
"Don't talk just listen." Sasporilla said. "I need you to hear what I have to say. I believe you when you say you don't like me any more. I just need you to know that I love you. I have since the day we met and will until the day I die. This will either be a hello or it will be a goodbye."
Sasporilla took his head in her hands and kissed him lovingly. Korry struggled at first and then he melted into the kiss and kissed her back. Sassy pulled away slowly eyes closed. When she opened them Korry was looking at her a bit confused but smiling.
"Sassy?" Korry shook the cobwebs from his head. "I.... what happened?
"Hi." Sasporilla said.
"Hi." Korry smiled and kissed his girl friend again.
