The Excuse

To Professor Snape:
I offer my sincerest regards for not having my Potions homework this afternoon. Unfortunately, it has been close to an insane asylum up in Ravenclaw's tower the past few days.
To begin, a Severus McGonagall (a first year) felt it would be rather amusing to hid all the ink bottles left in the common room on Friday night. Unfortunately, that included three of my own ink bottles, including my favorite emerald green ink. Thankfully, Cassandra Lobiesk gave him a goo...

The Burglar
Do You Hear What I Hear?
report by Roxanna Rhinestone


Once upon a crime. Yes, that is correct I said crime *pauses for collective gasp*, though I have been told I can be dramatic you can be the judge of that. So where were we? Aaaah yes, the crime. You see I was asked to be a part of a task force to find a culprit whom had stolen all of Hufflepuff's beautiful sparkly citrines. What a shame. (You would think they would keep them hidden in a vault with a Hungarian Hor...

The Letter
Addressed to the man who declared himself as the Dark Lord,

As I am sitting here, waiting for death to come claim me, I wonder this: what is it with people like you? You know, the typical super evil powerful person who decides he wants to conquer the world no matter what the cost. I mean, doesn't it get a bit cliché, sometimes? Heartless, evil person killing everyone in their way and using their minions like toys to do their bidding? I've always thought people like that only reall...

The Penguinators
They were coming.

From her hiding place in the false back of the closet, she could hear their little feet shuffling down the hall way outside her room. She had been hiding in there for days living off her supply of candy bars and juice packs her parents had sent from home. But they weren't going to last much longer. Just before she had hidden in here she had heard a rumor about the room of requirement being used as a hide out from the filthy penguins but hadn't wanted to risk try...

A Twisted Fairy Tale
This is my version of goldylocks but it is partially twisted and partially added on to.

Goldylocks was sitting high in her tower with her long wavy hair falling from the highest point of the tower. She was brewing a potion in which she would drink. Only Goldylocks knew the effect of the magical potion. But there are many rumors. The blue side says that when she drinks the potion her hair catches flame and who ever is on it trying to get to the highest point of Boggle Tower (Goldyl...
