The Hogwarts Shake
By scorpiodude31
I hate Spring. I cannot emphasize this enough. Everyone is rushing about all chipper and merry while this Slytherin is in the common room laying in his dormitory with a cold. Thanks. Spring. I spend my time inside the castle, hugging the cool musty stone walls for relief. Some find me strange but hey, seriously, you should try wall hugging. I do some random stuff when I'm sick, such as going out of my way to instigate an altercation with Peeves so I can sick the Bloody Baron onto him and watch the bastard get beat into the wall. Eh, I may be a bit brash, but hey, I need to laugh.
A crazy hair rises in me, and I decide to take my chances and stride through the grounds seeing who's doing what. I walk down through stone henge and spot some 7th years students whom bewitched the Whomping Willow; having found the knot in the trunk and climbed in its branches dancing to what the Mudbloods call the Harlem shake. The students of Hogwarts have adapted the wizardry term "The Hogwarts Shake". Rumor going about that it is rivaling Nargyling. Quite the sight to see with a bunch of witches and wizards shaking their asses randomly in a tree. Gryffindors, I swear.
After getting my eyeful I walk to Hagrid's hut and decide to pay him a visit. He doesn't care for me too much as for one being a Slytherin, but his expertise at handling creatures is marvelous.
"Why 'ello der, what er ya up to? Enjoyin' Spring?" he said as soon as he opened the door standing awkward, peering down at me.
"Hardly Professor, my nose is still raw. Allergies are killing me." I say making a slight grimace as I spot some movement behind him.
"What was that?" I ask curiously as I try to get a better look besides Hagrid's giant body.
"Wha is wha?" he asked trying to act like I didn't see anything.
"That white thing that just darted across the room behind you," I say pointing inside his hut.
"Oh, come on then, jus' keep quiet." he said making a come in gesture with his great arm.
Upon entering I am face to face with a white rabbit with bright red eyes.
He recognized this rabbit from somewhere before but cannot recall from where. He observed at the red eyed over sized white rabbit drank some tea from a tankard Hagrid provided.
"Found 'em in the forest, nothing but a pocketwatch on 'em. Ain't it somethin'?" he said, smiling as he observed the rabbit drink the tea like it were the most delicious concoction ever.
"I must get on my way, Hagrid, I must be back by 5 o'clock." the rabbit spoke as he closed his eyes as he drunk the tea.
I take a look at the sun as it was about to set and turn to the rabbit.
"Ummm...it's close to 6 o'clock." I say as the rabbit jumps out of his chair.
"I'M LATE! I'M LATE! I'M REALLY REALLY LATE! THE QUEEN WILL HAVE MY HEAD!" he yells with fear in his eyes as he bolts out the back door.
I stand there, not sure what to make of what happened or what queen he was referring to. Hagrid looks sad adding, "He was a kind cute feller, ne'er seen anythin' like 'im."
I look to Hagrid, smiling and adding,"Looks like Hogwarts is rather strange in the Spring. What Queen was he talking about?" looking at the Rabbit disappear in the treeline.
"No idea."
