(continued from Ranting and Raving )
I transform and feel naked without my collar. With the niffler by my side, I start sniffing around my room to sniff for clues.
By my jewelry box I smell it and growl. Malfoy How the hell did he even get into my room when he shouldn't have even been in the castle? I sniff my way out of my room with the niffler following me and make my way to the Great Hall.
Damn it, Nose! I know that you have a thing for food, but why do you forsake me so! ... is that Chicken I smell? Never mind - I have time to eat.
After I got my fill of food, I crawled back out of the Great Hall and looked at the niffler in what I hoped was a "do your thing" look. It must have been, because the next thing I know is his nose is to the floor and heading for the steps.
Great, steps. Don't they know by now steps with a freshly eaten beagle isn't a good idea. I groan as I follow the niffler up the steps. Thankfully, we only had to go about two flights before I saw that blond ferret face.
I growl as I charge and bite his ass. His yelps hurt my ears so I tackle him to the floor and transform back. "Where's my diamond necklace!" I growl, sounding very much like the dog I just was. He looks at me with an eyebrow raised, like I am beneath him.
"How did you get into my room anyway?" I ask. He scoffs.
"Please, 'Beagle' isn't a complicated password to figure out." Damn it, he's right. I wonder what the Latin of Beagle is, but that is probably too predictable too. I'll need to think about it.
I raise the hand that isn't holding his shirt collar to his head. "Don't make me mess up your hair."
He raised his hands in defense. "Ok, Ok. I sold it to the headmaster, just leave my hair alone."
"Thanks," I tell him. Before I get up, I mess up his hair anyway and transform into my beagle, bouncing up to the headmaster's office. His howl of outrage following in my wake. He would make a good dog himself it seems.
I get up to the office and the gargoyle doesn't even stand in my way, moving aside. I am all ready to take a bite out of the headmaster, when I see Dumbledore standing there and skid to a halt. I draw the line at biting dead guys who seem to be suddenly alive.
"Ah, Miss Beagle. Fascinating charms you have on here," he says holding up my necklace. "Thank you for giving me the opportunity to study it." Say, what now?
He clipped the chain back around my neck, where it transformed back into my collar.
"Marvelous!" he clapped with a grin in front of me, before vanishing in front of my eyes.
What now! This Beagle was confused. I think I need a nap.
