Chapter 9 - Quidditch disaster

Today was Gryfindoor vs Ravenclaw quidditch match. The match was certainly interesting. I wonder if there is something like inter school quidditch competetion like in muggle world. Possibly not, as most magical society has only one school per country. 

Ravenclaw and Gryfindoor both had really good teams. But looks like this match is being dominated by Gryfindoor. Me and Pandora were sitting in our benches cheering when I noticed something. 

I could see magic from the Gryfindoor brooms. And it was not the broom magic that I am sure of. Have the Gryfindoor tampered there brooms for better performance. Dang. But how do I let everyone know.

"Hey Pandora. Is the broom tampered. How come our Ravenclaw seeker is slower than the Gryfindoor Seeker even with the same Nimbus 1500 broom" I delibrately asked in a loud voice sounding curious. That was enough to cause an outrage among the audience. 

Professor Hooch had to call a half time and check the brooms. And Lo. It was found out. Gryfindoor was immediately called out for it and as everyone's broom was tampered therefore Ravenclaw was declared to be the winners.

---

I was drenched in water again. Ugh. Somehow those Mauderers found out that I was the one that revealed it. They were super mad about it. Ugh. And Gryfindoor was a house of chivalrous and brave.

"Are you okay." Lily asked. I cast a drying spell on myself immediately. 

"I am okay lily." I said. 

"What is wrong with them. You were only curious. And winning using such shady methods is not right." Lily said. No wonder she left her friendship with cannon Serverus Snape. She see's the world in black and white. But no worries. I have plenty of time to influence her.

"Leave them be Lils. I have no time to bother with idiots like those. Its History of Magic now. Wanna skip class." I asked hopefully.

"Selene. Skipping class is wrong." Lily said.

"But its so boring." I said in an mockingly aggrieved tone while pouting. Lily couldn't help but burst out in laughter. 

"Are you laughing at me." I said in faux offense. Though I also was unable to hide my smile and burst out laughing. In the end we did go to the class though.

Later that week-

'Hmm why haven't they done anything to me yet. Why stop suddenly. I should be relieved but there thoughts are saying of some big "Prank" against me. Though I don't exactly know what.'

I was about to eat dinner when I smelled something wrong. This smells like.... Its the ingridients to cause boils. I immediately smelled Pandora food but the same smell was not comming from her food. 

I took the plate to Mac Gonall who was about to go to her table and told her about it. I could see the mauderers face turning pale. She immediately called Poppy to check it and it was found to be true. Boy were they both angry or what.

She immediately took it to headmaster. He also had a grim expression. After all it can cause quite some harm to ones body. With years of experience it didn't took long for him to find out the culprits. 

In his office-

"What were you planning to do." Dumbledoor asked mauderers seriously.

"We- we were." Sirius stuttered on the verge of tears.

"You know how wrong this 'prank' of yours could have gone." Macgonall said seriously.

"Why did you do it." Fitwick asked. As he is the head of my house so he was immediately called.

"Because of her our Gryfindoor house lost 100 pts and the quiditch match." Potter said sniffling. What the-

"The only one at fault there was the Gryfindoor Quiditch team themselves. Our house doesn't tolerate such acts. We gryfindoor are known for its emphasis on bravery, chivalry, and daring."

"Do you wish for our Gryfindoor team to be so weak that they need such trickery to win." Macgonnal asked.

"No." All four said at the same time.

"So isn't it good that because of Miss Snape we got to know what kind of team we had so that we can get some better players next year." Macgonall asked again. How smart of her. She said it in a way that her point would be understood. 

Most just resort to scolding. For a eleven year old it would be very difficult to understand what they did wrong and they will only hold resentment. 

"You understand what you did wrong." Macgonall asked.

"Yes professor." They all said.

"Well seems like the confusion has been sorted out. Now for your punishment, every night with Hagrid you will run errands in forbidden forrest and you will serve two days dentention per week with each faculty for the next three months. Plus we are revoking your rights to join quiditch team next year." Dumbledoor said in a serious tone. 

They all started protesting but...

"Stop the only reason this punishment is this light is that you are still eleven. But if I hear another incident like this again I will make sure it is not this light." He added with a grave tone.

"Miss Snape. Poppy did say that you are okay but I would still like to confirm with you anout how you are feeling." Dumbledoor asked.

"I am fine sir. A bit rattled but yes fine for now." I said honestly. Who wouldn't be.

"I assure you that such things will not happen again. We will ensure so." Dumbledoor said earnestly. I nodded at that.

"Well professor I shall take my leave with my student now that its setteled." Flitwick said.

He lead me towards Ravenclaw dorms. On the way he assured me to not to worry and he will ensure that something like this don't occur again. 

By next day everyone found out what had happen. Pandora was horrified knowing what had happen to me. She was about to hex them to oblivion. It took a lot of effort to calm her down. Everyone was really displeased with these four. Lily was horrified by what they had done. She was so angry at them. 

The mauderers themselves were so busy and ashamed that they did not bother to come in front of me. Well everything end out to be well after all.
