Our Hogwarts: Chapter 1

Minihagrid strode down the corridor. He was late for breakfast, and he hated missing breakfast. The only problem is that he was just too damn lazy to get up early enough. At least Nialle would be there to set the good example. He passed an open door, and was curious to hear whispering coming from within.

‘Come on Nialle, were not THAT evil…’

‘I demand that you let me go right now!’ It was Nialle, in trouble again.

Minihagrid burst through the door, and was overpowered by the stink of cheese. His eyes exploded with yellow, as in every corner of the room there were piles and piles of cheese. All the different varieties too! He saw Nialle against the far wall, tied up on an old medieval rack. Standing in front of him were Chris and Leia. Those two again. This time, they were force-feeding Nialle cheese, and when he tried to refuse they turned the crank on the rack. Nialles arms looked about twice their usual length.

‘STOP IT NOW!’ Minih yelled. Leia and Chris jumped, and spun to face the headmaster. ‘I don’t know what you have got against Nialle, but I’m sure he doesn’t appreciate you torturing him.’

‘But he really likes it sir!’ said Chris. ‘Watch!’ He rammed the chunk of cheese he was holding into Nialles mouth, and laughed as he tried to spit it out again.

‘And another thing, where did you get all this cheese from?’

‘Gotta go sir. Late for breakfast.’ Said Leia. They both ran past him, and out of the room giggling.

‘How could you make someone like that Head of House?’ Nialle asked as Minih released him. He was busy shrinking his arms back to their normal length.

‘Moment of weakness…’ Minih muttered, before stepping out of the room, now even more desperate for breakfast. ‘And Nialle, could you clear up this cheese please? It stinks.’

Minih burst into the Great Hall, only to be forced back out as a dozen eggs splattered his face. ‘Oh no, not again!’ sighed the teacher. ‘This is three times this week!’ It was another food fight. Probably started by Sandy again. Someone had thought it funny to enchant the candles to shoot at each other aswel. Probably Fred.

In fact, the only person left seated was Nimuee, which was a relief. Thank god for mature people, though Minih. But that was before he realised that she had just released her pet Runespoor up Lilg’s leg. As Lilg hopped around madly, trying to shake the serpent off her, Oli raced into the room, promptly skidded on a fried tomato and flew head first along the Hufflepuff table, covering them all from head to toe.

Just another day at our Hogwarts, thought Minih, stepping in to stop the riot.

Our Hogwarts Chapter 2

The two head teachers stood at the front of the Great Hall, looking proud behind the high table. The students were silent, watching them for their first words of wisdom.

Nialle cleared his throat. ‘As you may have already heard, there have been some changes this year. Our beloved head mistress Pkia has left until further notice, so I shall be stepping in to take her place. Also, Oli has been promoted to Deputy Head. If you need any guidance or help, go to one of us.’

‘There are also a few start of year notices to hand out, if you would Nialle?’

‘Certainly. First, I must give people a warning about a certain black market trade. It has come to our attention that there has been a lot of trading cheese in the school. Anyone caught doing this, especially when they know that the Ravenclaws have a certain…er…weakness in that area will be severely punished.’

‘And I also have an announcement to make. Anyone caught punishing Nialle, chasing Nialle, kidnapping Nialle, stalking Nialle or doing anything to Nialle will be in a lot of trouble. Understood?’ In particular, he glared at first Leia, sitting along the teacher’s desk, and second at Chris. ‘No matter how much you think he enjoys it, I can assure you he does not. You are dismissed.’




Now, here’s where your chapters cut in. I’ve given the rough ideas, now I want specific plots e-mailed to me. E-mailed, you hear that? For example, if Leia wants to kidnap Nialle, she must tell me HOW, WHERE and WHO with.  Don’t bother talking about lessons, coz it’s supposed to resemble our board. So there are places like Glenmore, secret Slytherin Chamber, Katharina’s room etc… AND NO REAL HP characters!

[En]

Plum BRILLIANT, minih... *salutes* I wonder, how are you going to work without the classes and HP characters though?  And who teaches what and under what terms?  Because it's kind of a big part of Katharina's character that she subs for and is engaged to Snape....  

only... why is everyone trying to tie me up?  First the Slyths in Chris' story, now I'm being forcefed cheese (which, being a Ravenclaw, I don't mind so much, really, unless it's goat cheese, yuck)....

*starts going back through saved pages for ideas on a chapter to email minih*

[Rue]

*is grinning broadly*  Minih, it is brilliant!  And it’s a brilliant idea to write a story mainly reflecting the board.  And it’s brilliant that people can send you ideas for chapters, because the ideas is what's mainly making my story take forever!   You're all over brilliant!

*starts plotting what she wants to do to Nialle in the story so she can e-mail it to Minih.*  ;D

[minihagrid]

This is the first ‘long chapter’ written from someone else’s idea So thanks to Chris, and I believe that Ruadh is supplying the next part. Is that right? Well, that’s what Chris told me anyway. Hope you like it Chris, and soz Nialle! I might go back and improve it later.


Chapter 3: Extra ‘Help’

‘Hi Sir!’ Chris shouted, making him jump. Nialle dropped the stack of transfiguration files he was holding, and a couple of bottles of ink smashed on the floor. He turned around, going red, and saw Chris standing no more than one metre behind him. Why he had shouted was beyond logical thought.

‘Oh, Chris. How can I help you?’ Nialle asked wearily. The cheese incident was still strong in his mind. As was the smell.

‘I just wanted to congratulate you on making headmaster sir! I mean, now you’re a teacher, head of House, and Headmaster. That’s so cool.’

Although his voice was full of admiration, Nialle couldn’t help but feel wary. He had heard this kind of talk before, and last time he had ended up as Chris’ pet rabbit. Not a good memory. How many rabbits like cheese anyway…

‘Well, thank you Chris, now, if you’ll excuse me, I have lessons to teach.’ He scooped up all the files, and carried on walking down the stone corridor.

‘There is just one more thing sir.’ Nialle turned again, and almost fell over as Chris was still within touching distance.

‘Well, what is it boy?’ Nialle asked, getting impatient.

‘I’ve been struggling this year with my Transfiguration. I couldn’t do the switching of one animal to another. My cat ended up with horns and hoofed feet. So, I was wondering…. Could you give me a bit of extra help? Whenever you’re not busy? I really don’t wanna fail this…’

Nialle thought for a moment. He couldn’t possibly let Chris fail. But it was Chris. There had to be an alternative motive. He took one glance at Chris’ pleading eyes, and gave in. ‘Oh all right’ he snapped. ‘Be at the entrance hall tonight at half eight. And be alone.’ He said.

‘Thank you so much Sir!’ Chris said. A smile broke across his face, and Nialle left for his class. As soon as his back was turned, the smile became an evil grin…

*****

Nialle tapped his feet impatiently. It was nine o’clock, and Chris should have been here by now. Then he heard the loud steps that indicated Chris racing down the stone stairs.

‘Sorry I’m late sir’ he wheezed. ‘Bit of trouble with the subject…’ he grinned and pulled out a small little rabbit. It was white and fluffy, and smelled strongly of cheddar. ‘It was the one I got to replace you Sir!’ Chris said brightly. I thought I could do a big transformation on this. If you’ll help me.’

‘Well, let’s get going then. I do have those essays to mark. We’ll have to go outside to have enough room.’ They both stepped out of the great oak doors, and onto the damp lawn. It was pretty dark for September, but that was perfect for Chris’ plan. Less chance of witnesses seeing what was about to happen.

They sat the rabbit down in the middle of the lawn, and stepped back from it. Nialle performed the Body Bind curse, and it was frozen still. Perfect for transfiguring.

‘The first thing you need to do when performing a cross species switch is picture both creatures in your mind.’ But Chris was way ahead of him. He had already pulled out his wand, and was casting a spell on the rabbit. An orange light struck it, and it started to expand.

‘What have you done?’ Nialle asked, starting to worry. ‘I thought you needed my help?’

‘I do,’ said Chris slyly. ‘But not on that, I just needed to persuade you to come outside with me.’

[minihagrid]

As they were busy with their conversation, they had failed to notice the rabbit morphing into the background. Hard red scales replaced the soft white fur, and its body swelled to hundreds of times its natural size. The most worrying feature was the growth of two huge wings out of its back.

‘Uh, Chris?’ Nialle whispered. ‘I don’t think you’ve got much to worry about when it comes to your Transfigurations final.’

‘Do you really think it’s that good Sir?’ Chris asked excitedly.

‘Well, aside from the rabbit ears, the twitching nose and the killer instinct, its not a bad dragon. However, I think that the best idea would be to turn it back now. It seems to have noticed us.’ But before he could transfigure it back into the harmless bunny, it took off, heading towards the Forbidden Forest.

‘Sparkly, come back!’ Chris yelled, running after it. But it had already disappeared over the trees.

‘Well done Chris. Now we have a killer rabbit-cross-dragon with a fondness for cheese on the loose. I must tell Minihagrid quickly.’

‘But Sir, can’t you help me first?’

‘Is this ‘help’ you require so much more important than the safety of the school?’

‘But it’ll only take a few minutes! Honestly!’

‘Well, what is it then!’ Nialle snapped. ‘f it’s another one of your tricks, you’ll have a month of detention.’ He realised his mistake. A month of detentions with his was probably what Chris wanted most.

‘Can you help me climb a tree?’ Chris asked innocently. ‘Its just there’s someone I wanna impress….’

‘By climbing a tree!?’ This once again questioned Chris’ sanity, thought Nialle. ‘Very well, but quickly!’

With a wave of his wand Nialle transformed a bare patch of land into a huge oak, spanning several metres across and hundreds of metres tall.

‘The easiest way for a wizard to climb is to simply point your wand at the solid object you want to reach, and conjure up a rope. Roperus!’ He yelled. Instantly, a long rope dropped from the tree’s branches high above. ‘Now, you try’ Nialle encouraged Chris.

‘Ok,’ he said. He pointed the wand at the tree trunk just behind Nialle and performed the spell.

‘Now, at least you got the spell right. The accuracy can come later.’

‘Au contraire Nialle. That rope’s exactly where I want it.’ He ran forward, and grabbed the end of the rope, before running circles around Nialle, tying him firmly to the tree. ‘He’s all yours mate!’ Chris yelled out, before fleeing back to the school, only to be replaced by another figure stepping out of the shadows nearby…

‘Hello Nialle! We’re going to have some fun!’
