《Emerald》32

As the months went on, Draco and I walked the halls and sat together more often.
The whole school knew we were friends by now.
The only people who had a problem with it were his friends, and mine.
Hermione kept saying 'he's only doing it to gain information about our meetings.'
It couldn't be true, Draco never asked me about them.
In the mix of everything, Draco and his friends were promoted to prefect's.
They were taken under Umbridge's wings.
They were allowed to walk the halls after hours, patrolling.
They were allowed to take house points from students as well.
Every day new rules went up on the walls.
Umbridge was taking over.
...
"Now think of something happy. The happiest you've ever been. Let it flow from you, and out your wand. You've got this!" Harry said, as we all practiced in the room of requirement.
The only thought that came to my mind, was Draco.
Imagines of us dancing at the Yule Ball, and rolling around in the snow, flashed before my eyes.
"Expecto petronum." I casted.
A bright light began glowing from the end of my wand.
A white, glowing rabbit appeared.
It hopped and danced throughout the air in the room, before disappearing moments later.
"You did it!" Luna yelled.
Everyone began cheering.
I was the last one to get the petronus charm down, and I finally got it.
The wall that we entered through, began cracking.
With every thump from the other side of the wall, the cracks grew.
We all stood there silently as a hole began to form.
The hole grew, then the wall crumbled down.
There stood Umbridge, Filtch, Draco and his friends.
Draco, was holding Cho by her collar.
Draco was grinning ear to ear.
Cho snitched.

I knew I didn't trust her for a reason.
Umbridge placed her wand into her pocket. She smiled greatly, as she stepped forward over the rubble.
Draco's grin quickly faded, as his eyes met mine.
That little blonde weasel.
Umbridge put the rest of them in a room with Mr Filtch to watch.
She, along with Draco and his friends, took Harry, Ron, Hermione and I to her office.
Draco held Ron my his shirt, Crabbe held Hermione, and Goyle held me.
Harry sat in the chair before Umbridge.
"You were going to Dumbledore, weren't you." Umbridge spoke to Harry, as she leaned over him.
"No." Harry huffed as her.
Umbridge quickly slapped Harry across the face.
The crack of her hand smacking him across the face, echoed through her office.
I winced, and closed my eyes.
That sounded like it stung.
"You sent for me, headmistress." Snape entered her office.
His eyes scanned our faces, before he looked at Umbridge.
"Ah, yes. The time has come for answers, weather he wants to give them to me or not.... have you brought the veritaserum?" She asked Snape.
She was going to make Harry drink the truth serum.
"I'm afraid not, you have used up all my stores interrogating students. The last of it was used on Ms Chang. I cannot help you." Snape spoke slowly.
A small wave of relief rushed over me.
"He's got Padfoot!" Harry said desperately, "he's got him where it's hidden!"
"Padfoot? What's Padfoot? What is he talking about Snape?" Umbridge spoke quickly, looked up at Snape.
"No idea." Snape replied, before leaving her office. He slammed the door loudly.
Umbridge narrowed her eyes at Harry, as she kept her evil smile on her face.
"Very well, you leave me no choice. The cruciatus curse might losen your tongue." She pointed her wand at Harry.

"That's illegal!" Hermione yelled.
All of the boys tightened their grip on us.
Umbridge turned the picture of the minister of magic down on her desk.
"What Cornelius doesn't know, won't hurt him." She smiled.
"Don't tell her!" I yelled.
Umbridge turned to me, and poked her wand underneath my chin.
"Maybe we should use the curse on you, first." She spat in my face.
I breathed heavily, but kept a stone face.
I glanced at Draco for a second.
He stared at the wall directly in front of him with, his jaw clenched.
Draco didn't dare to look at me.
He knee better.
That fucking traitor.
"Tell her Harry!" Hermione yelled desperately.
"Tell me what?" Umbridge asked, as she turned back to Harry.
"Well, if you won't tell her... I will." Hermione slightly lowered her voice, as she looked at me, then at Harry.
"Tell me what?!" Umbridge yelled again.
"Dumbledore's secrete weapon." Hermione replied.
"You two, come with me." She grabbed Harry and Hermione, "you boys, watch the other two."
Umbridge led Harry, and Hermione out of her office.
Ron, and I stood before Draco, Crabbe, and Goyle.
Draco didn't dare to even look in my direction.
Ron smirked slightly, as he reached until his pocket.
He pulled out a hand full of wrapped candy.
Within a matter of seconds, Draco and his friends took the candy, and quickly ate them.
Moments later, their three stomachs began to turn, and growl.
They all began throwing up.
Ron and I quickly ran out of Umbridge's office, and down the halls of the school.
"Where are we going? What's hidden?" I asked, Ron as we ran.
"Getting Luna, Neville, Fred and George. Sirius is in trouble. Voldemort is trying to get to a prophecy orb, Harry saw it. " Ron yelled.
We ran to the room where the others were held.
Filtch was also throwing up.
Fred, George, Luna and Neville ran to us.
"Our candy works wonders." Fred and George winked, as they high fived each other.
Hermione, and Harry ran up to us.
They were both dirty, and sweaty.
"Lets go, now! We don't have much time!" Harry yelled.
We all ran, and followed him.
All of us went to the fireplace in the Gryffindor common room.
Harry threw the dust in.
"Ministry of magic." Harry spoke, and we all jumped into the green flames.

Godfather Of Champions
This is a story about the pursuit of victory.— «I subscribe only to the theory of victory. I only pursue victory. As long as I am able to obtain victory, I don’t care if it’s total football or counterattack. What is the ultimate goal of professional soccer? In my opinion, it is victory, and the pinnacle of victory is to become the champions. I am a manager. If I don’t wish to lose my job or be forgotten by the people, there’s only one path for me to take, and that is to lead the team in obtaining victories, in obtaining championship titles!»The main character was not well-liked by people.— «⋯We conducted a survey which had been deemed by Manager Tony Twain as extremely meaningless. In a random street survey conducted, ninety-three percent of those surveyed chose the option ‘I hate Tony Twain’, while only seven percent chose the option ‘This person is rather decent, I like him’. It is worth noting that nobody chose the option ‘Who is Tony Twain? I don’t know him’. Mark, do you know why Manager Twain felt that our survey was very meaningless?» Parker, a reporter from laughed loudly and said when he was being interviewed by BBC.But there were also people who were madly in love with him.— When Tony Twain was forced to talk about the survey conducted by during an interview, his reply was : «I am happy, because Nottingham Forest’s fans make up seven percent of England’s population.»And he did not seem to care about how the others saw him.— «What are you all trying to make me say? Admit that I am not popular, and everywhere I go will be filled with jeers and middle fingers. You all think I will be afraid? Wrong! Because I am able to bring victory to my team and its supporters. I don’t care how many people hate me and can’t wait to kill me, and I also won’t change myself to accommodate the mood of these losers. You want to improve your mood? Very simple, come and defeat me.»His love story had garnered widespread attention.— «Our reporters took these pictures at Manager Tony Twain’s doorsteps. It clearly shows that Shania entered his house at 8.34pm and she did not leave the house throughout the night at all. But Manager Tony Twain firmly denies, and insists that that was merely the newest-model inflatable doll which he had ordered.He was the number one star of the team.— «⋯ Became the spokesperson of world-wide famous clothing brands, shot advertisements, frequented the fashion industry’s award ceremonies, endorsed electronic games, has a supermodel girlfriend. His earnings from advertisements exceed his club salary by seventeen times, owns a special column in various print medias, publishing his autobiography (in progress), and is even said that he is planning to shoot an inspirational film based off his own person experiences! Who can tell me which part of his life experiences is worthy of being called ‘inspirational’? Hold on⋯. Are you all thinking that I’m referring to David Beckham? You’re sorely mistaken! I’m talking about Manager Tony Twain⋯.»He was very knowledgeable about Chinese soccer.— «⋯ I’ve heard about it, that Bora gifted four books to his manager Mr. Zhu before your country’s national team’s warm up match. After which, the team lost 1:3 to a nameless American team from Major League Soccer. The new excuse that Mr. Zhu gave for losing the match, was that Bora gifted «books» (‘books’ and ‘lose’ are homophones in the Chinese language). Here, I recommend that you guys find out what that one specific book is. Which book? Of course the one that caused you all to score a goal. After that, tell me the title of the book. Before every match, I will gift ten copies of that same book to you. In that case, won’t you all be able to get a triumphant 10:0 win over your opponents every time?» An excerpt taken from Tony Twain’s special column in a certain famous Chinese sports newspaper.He was loved and hated by the press.— «He has a special column in at least four renowned print media, and he is able to get a considerable amount of remuneration just by scolding people or writing a few hundred words of nonsense weekly. While we have to contemplate hard about our drafts for three days before our boss is pleased with it. In an article inside his special column, he scolded and called all of the media ‘son of a bitch’, announcing that he hated the media the most. But every time he publishes an article, we flock towards him like flies which had spotted butter. Why? Because the readers like to read his news and see him scold people. I dare to bet with you, and Manager Tony Twain knows clearly in his heart as well, that even though he says that he hates us, he knows that the present him cannot do without us. Similarly, we also cannot do without him. Is this ultimately considered a good or a bad thing?» Bruce Pearce, a reporter from said with a face of helplessness when talking about Tony Twain.But no matter the case, his players were his most loyal believers.— Gareth Bale, «No no, we never had any pressure when playing on our home grounds. Because the pressure is all on the manager. As long as we see him standing by the side of the field, all of us will feel that we will be able to win that match. Even the football hooligans are like meek lambs in front of him!» (After saying this, he began to laugh out loudly)The reply from George Wood, the team captain of Nottingham Forest, was the most straightforward. «We follow him because he can bring us victory.»The legendary experience of Tony Twain, the richest, most successful, most controversial manager with the most unique personality!Debuting this summer.Thank you for reading.

Rage: Crisis / Consequence / ???
Its been ten years since Seth was given his powers, ten years since his town was driven mad by that very same power, and ten years since its source was shunted into his head. A species of energy beings, a people filled with regret for what their entrance onto this world caused. Regret for the deaths that town perpetuated, the devastation they brought, the blow they served to the once proud heroes of this world. Heroes Seth now hopes to join, hopes to heal and atone to for what transpired. But their wounds run deep, their ire sharp, and their acceptance thin. And to top it all off... Seth's power is run far deeper than he knows, and sees his world in a light all its own. This series is my first foray into authoring, with two parts out of at best four if the readership stands. But part three will still book end nicely otherwise. And I'm not stopping till then. It is action heavy with varied and ramping up fight scenes through out. (Book 1 is heavy / Book 2 a little lighter) It is bloody in places, mildly gory in others, and heavily gory in simulated places. Nothing truly horrifying, I think, but be warned. It has trauma. PTSD is a major part of the story, but I will never trust that I got it completely right, so your mileage may vary on how believable or impactful it is. Lastly it has language. Swearing ebbs and flows as the story progresses and attitudes harden or soften. Sometimes bleeding through into the narration... somehow.
