Year 2-9: Polyjuice Potion

hristmas came to Hogwarts. The great hall was filled with Christmas decorations and it was snowing. Christmas at Hogwarts was definitely a beautiful thing. More than half the students had left to go home while the others stayed.

"Everything's set. We just need a little bit of who you're changing into. Evelyn already brought me a piece of Pansy's hair so you guys need Crabbe and Goyle's hair," Hermione whispers sitting down with her food. "We also need to make sure the real Crabbe, Goyle, and Pansy can't burst in on us while we're interrogating Draco."

"How?" Ron asks furrowing his eyebrows.

"I filled these with a simple sleeping potion, simple, but powerful," I said pulling out three cupcakes with chocolate sprinkles on them.

"Now, once they're asleep, hide them inside the broomstick cupboard and pull out a few of their hairs and put on their uniforms, I've already got mine. Millicent Bulstrode, Slytherin. Evelyn and I are going to check on the polyjuice potion. Make sure Crabbe, Goyle, and pansy find these." Hermione said pointing at the cupcakes pulling me with her.

We sat in the 2nd floor girl's lavatory mixing around the potion. Harry and Ron were yet to come. "Do you think Draco might be controlling Ginny?" I asked. I really don't think Ginny would ever intentionally petrify someone.

"Likely, that's why we're going to ask him."

"What if he's not?"

"Then either Ginny really is the heir of Slytherin or someone else is behind it" I remembered the letter from my dad saying my mother has something to do with it. Since she was now a supporter of HIM, could that mean HE could be behind all this? It would make sense if HE was the heir of Slytherin though.

"We got it," Harry and Ron said barging in with a piece of hair in their hands.

"We have exactly one hour before we change back into ourselves," Hermione says pouring the polyjuice potion into three different cups.

"Add the hairs," She directed as we all put the hair in our cup of poly juice potion.

"Urgh, essence of Crabbe!" Ron groaned.

"Cheers" I raised my cup of poly juice potion and we all drank it. I could barely swallow it, it tasted so disgusting it pained my throat. Not only did it taste disgusting but it smelt disgusting too.

"I think I'm gonna be sick," Ron says dropping his glass of poly juice potion and running into a bathroom stall.

"Same" Hermione groans dropping her glass running into a stall beside Ron.

"Me too" I couldn't help it and ran inside a stall. The last thing I wanted was to throw up all over the lavatory floor or even worse, on Harry. I felt a strong pain in my stomach as I hunched over the toilet. My body felt uncomfortable like it was thickening and something was trying to rip out of my skin. It wasn't painful but just so uncomfortable.

I looked down at my hand that was bubbling and slowly changing shape into Pansy's. Soon my whole body started to bubble and change, even my hair. I pulled out a small mirror from my robe and examined my face, there I saw Pansy Parkinson. I looked exactly like her. I changed into a pair of Slytherin robe Hermione had found that was left in the Great hall and walked outside of the stall. There I saw Crabbe and Goyle.. Well, Ron and Harry.

"Bloody hell" Ron exclaimed examining Harry's face.

"You guys still sound like yourselves, try sounding more like Crabbe and Goyle," I said trying to imitate Pansy's bitchy voice.

"Bloody hell," Ron says in a deeper voice.

"Excellent."

"Where's Hermione?"

"I- I don't think I'm going! You guys go on without me." Hermione yelled from a stall.

"Hermione you ok?" I asked worriedly.

"Just go! you're wasting time!"

"Come on," Harry lead us out along the corridors towards the Slytherin common room.

"Excuse me!" A ginger boy came around the corner of the corridors and in front of us. Percy Weasley, my absolute least favorite Weasley.

"What are you doing-" I nudged Ron, he was speaking in his regular voice tone.

"I mean- What are you doing down here," He says again in a deeper voice.

"I happen to be a school prefect" Percy narrowed his eyes at us. Oh how much I wanted to just hit his annoying little face. "You on the other hand have no business wandering around the corridors at this time of the night. What're your names again?"

"Crabbe, Goyle! Where have you two been? And.. Pansy? What are you doing with them! Pigging out at the great hall all this time?" Draco came from around the corridors behind us and walked up as we all nodded.

"Why're you wearing glasses?" He asks Harry suspiciously.

"I-Uh uhm.. Reading" Harry responds taking off his glasses.

"Reading?... I didn't know you could read" He raised his eyebrows to turn towards Percy. "And what are you doing down here Weasley?"

"Mind your attitude Malfoy" Percy gritted his teeth. Draco only smirked brushing past him as we followed.

~***~

I sat down on the black leather couch inside the Slytherin common room. It had a different mood compared to the Gryffindor common room. It was decorated with silver items and had black and green pieces of furniture. Draco soon joined me on the couch right next to me putting an arm around me. I flinched as his arm touched me but soon relaxed my body when I felt him look at me suspiciously.

"Well sit down" He gestured towards Harry and Ron. "You'd never know the Weasleys are pure bloods. They're an embarrassment to the wizarding world. All of them" Ron's fist started to clench. "What's wrong with you Crabbe?" Harry gave him a quick nudge making Ron relax.

"Stomach Ache" He replied.

"You know, I'm surprised the Daily Prophet hasn't done a report on all these attacks, Dumbledore's probably trying to hush it all up. Father always said that Dumbledore was the worst thing that ever happened in this place"

"You're wrong!" Harry blurted out. I gave him a quick glare as I sign for him to shut up. Draco got up to glare down at Harry. Merlin's beard there's a reason this boy wasn't sorted into Ravenclaw.

"What? You think there's someone here that's worse than Dumbledore? Well? Do you?!" He asked Harry as he looked up at him not knowing what to say.

"Harry Potter," I said as he turns around to look at me. Draco scoffs and inside I sigh in relief.

"Good one Pansy. You're absolutely right, there's a reason I like you. Saint Potter. And people actually think that he's the heir of Slytherin? I don't get what Clermont sees in him. She's all heads and heels over him" my eyes widened as I coughed. Was I making it obvious?

"But you must have some idea who's behind it all?" I asked changing the subject.

"You know I don't Pansy. I told you yesterday. How many times do I have to tell you?" He says walking over to a nearby table picking up a little gift box of some sort.

"Is this yours?" He asked Harry who shook his head. "But my father told me this. It's been 50 years since the chamber was opened. He wouldn't tell me who opened it, only that they were expelled. The last time the secrets of chamber had opened, a mudblood died. So it's only a matter of time before one of them is killed this time. As for me, I hope it's Granger."

I stood up out of the couch having enough. Ron was a little quicker than I was and lunged at Draco only to be pulled back by Harry.

"What's the matter with you three? You guys are all acting really odd!" Draco asks furrowing his eyebrows.

"It's his.. stomach ache" Harry replied. I noticed something slowly start to appear on Harry's forehead, his lightning bolt scar.

"Scar" I whispered catching Ron and Harry's attention. Draco was too distracted on opening the gift box of some sort he had picked up.

"Hair" Harry whispered back looking at Ron and I. The poly juice potion was starting to wear off. We quickly ran out of the common room and to the girl's lavatory on the second floor leaving Draco who was calling out for us. By the time we arrived, we were back to ourselves again.

"That was close!" Ron exclaimed as we walked into the lavatory.

"Hermione come out! We've got loads to tell you" Harry said. He still hadn't put his glasses back on, personally, I like him better with his glasses but he was cute nonetheless.

"Go away!" Hermione yelled from inside the stall again.

"Wait till you see, it's awful" Moaning Myrtle comes out of the stall Hermione was in startling Ron and flying behind us.

"Hermione, are you okay?" I asked slowly opening the stall door revealing.. a cat in the form of a human. Ron and I looked even more startled as Harry took out his glasses and put them back on.

"The hair I pulled off of Millicent's robes was her cat's," She says turning to face us, her yellow eyes meeting ours. She was a human-sized cat slowly turning back into her original self.

"Look at my face," She says shaking her head."Look at your tail!" Ron laughs as I smack his arm. Behind us, Moaning Myrtle cackled.
