Mean Birds
"Bedazzled wands, designer robes, haute couture witch hats, and gorgeous shoes. A place where you should follow the don'ts and the do's. You better fit in or you will have the blues. Sit back and follow the rules. HOL High, one of the best wizarding schools."
HOL High is a wizarding school that is known for the events that have taken place there. Times have changed though, the beautiful and brainy conquer while the heroic and helpful have turned common. Will you fit in? Or will you your wings get clipped? The House of Ravenclaw may seem like your regular determined, always-studying plastic Rowena doll, but it is the complete opposite. Opposite in the sense that there are many secrets and devious plans circling about within. The top of the bird pyramid is the highest goal. Question is how far will some birdies fly to get there?
The story begins with the current Queen Eagle of HOL High. This birdie is very gorgeous, calculating, and very devious. She is a sixth year prefect. The thing is only her circle really knows how devious she can get. Why are they the only ones? No one would dare chirp about the Queen Eagle. That is Mean Bird rule number one. "We birds, that act quite mean, never speak the secret words of the queen." Kyrie Adderholt is the current Queen Eagle.
The next gorgeous eagle is Amy Lupin. Let's think of her as the Head Princess. She is the Queen Eagle's right hand. She is a sixth year prefect just like Kyrie. Don't let the cutesy aura fool you though. She can be quite persuasive in getting what she wants. It is all a game and this princess loves to call checkmate.
The third eagle is Scarlet Irisa. She is a fourth year prefect. She is more the princess in training. She may come off naive but she is the complete opposite. Watch your wings with this one because at the end of the day the main goal this bird has is to wear the crown.
The day starts with the girls eating breakfast. They are going over their daily schedule and having a regular chat.
"Hey, birdies I was thinking. We should take a trip to Hogsmeade so that I can go to that new dress shop and you two can tell me how great I look in each dress. You two can get something as well, just as long as you remember strapless and corset illusion dresses are off-limits. I may decide to wear one." Kyrie said.
"That sounds so falcon's beak!" said Amy.
"What does that mean, Amy?" said Scarlet.
"It means nothing Scarlet. Amy, stop trying to make 'falcon's beak' happen!" said Kyrie.
"Sorry, Kyrie," said Amy.
"Moving on, it is time for Potions class, let's go birdies," said Kyrie.
The three girls finished their breakfast and headed to Potions class. They got there and sat in the same seats they always sat in. It didn't matter if they were late or early no other witch or wizard dared sit in their spot. They were actually a few minutes early so of course Kyrie decided to have a bit of fun.
"Hey girls, watch this."
Kyrie then took out her wand and pointed it at a Hufflepuff, without her noticing, and said a spell. All of a sudden the Hufflepuff student's hair started to shorten at an alarming rate and it turned a vomit green color. The student then freaked out trying to get her hair went from being long and lustrous to short, spiky and green.
"Birdies look there. She favour that of a Slytherin boy doesn't she." Kyrie said.
"Yea, Slytherin boy indeed." Amy said while giggling.
"Oh, Slytherin because her hair is now green. I get it," said Scarlet, finally getting the joke.
Just as the girl started to sob a bit, the Potions professor walked in.
"Oh goodness child what happened to your hair? And why are you sobbing?" the professor said, shocked and confused.
"I don't know professor, it just happened!" sobbed the girl.
"Okay, go to the hospital wing to clear up your problem."
"Okay."
As the girl left the class, she wiped her eyes and noticed Kyrie and her group giggling in her direction. She then thought, "I bet it was her who cast the hex." She realized she dare not say anything considering something worst might happen.
"Today class, I want you to get into groups of three and pick a potion that all three of you can make fairly well. You will have the next two days, so get started. Make sure in your report you say who did what in creating that potion."
"Okay birds, let's write down which potions we think we should do." Kyrie said.
"Alright." Amy and Scarlet said in unison.
Kyrie began to jot down her potion idea when something told her to look up. She lifted her head and was instantly put in a magical trance. It was as if she was put under a powerful spell. A spell wasn't cast though, she was in a trance because when she looked up she saw the cutest wizard she ever saw. The boy looked like 1,000,000 galleons. Kyrie was in such a daze that she didn't hear Amy calling her name. Amy, confused as to why Kyrie wasn't answering her, then looked at what Kyrie was staring at. She didn't snap out of her trance until she heard Scarlet speak.
"Holy Helena! Birds, do you see him?"
"Yes, he is so falcon's beak!"
"Amy! Stop trying to make 'falcon's beak' happen, it will never happen!"
"Sorry, Kyrie."
"Ssshhh, we must find out who he is. I will be right back, girls."
Kyrie got up to go introduce herself to the new student. She thought that he obviously must be a new student from another wizarding school. As Kyrie was making her way down the classroom she hadn't noticed yet another new transfer student making their way into the class. She bumped into her, and they both tripped.
"Hey, watch yourself!" Kyrie said, getting up and dusting herself off.
"I am so sorry, I was caught up in my thoughts," said the new girl.
"Yeah, you will be sorry if you bump into me again. What is your name?" Kyrie said, looking furious.
"My name is Matilde. Yours?"
"The name is Kyrie, remember it. Don't bump into me again or next time I won't be so nice. Conversation now over." Kyrie said as she continued to make her way towards the new student.
"Hello, I am Kyrie Adderholt, Ravenclaw prefect, are you a new transfer?"
"Hey, nice to meet you. I am Ravenclaw boy and yes I am, my sister and I both are transfers."
"Nice, I hope you enjoy yourself here. Who might your sister be?"
"Her name is Matilde, she is walking up now."
"Mat..ilde...?"
"Yea, hey Tilly meet Kyrie."
"Oh Kyrie is it? Pleasure to meet you." Matilde said with a grin displaying across her face.
"Yes, a pleasure indeed." Kyrie said, while giving Matilde the eagle evil eyes.
"Well I better get back to the assignment I will see you later Ravenclaw boy... and I am I will definitely be seeing you, Matilde." Kyrie said while doing a hairflip and walking away.
"Nice girl," said the Ravenclaw boy
"Yes... very nice indeed..." Matilde said.
