Hogwarts Alchemist

Obelia and Draco glanced at each other slowly, it had been a while since they ran into Snape, and turns out the reason it had been a while was because he was looking for them.

"Is there a reason you are looking for the two of us professor?" Obelia asked avoiding eye contact with Snape.

Snape frowned and looked at the two who were avoiding his gaze and turned around, "You two follow me."

Obelia and Draco then glanced at each other and back at Snape who was walking away. "Stay calm, we know nothing and have been here the whole time," Obelia whispered to Draco and walked towards Snape, Draco followed quickly behind her. Both completely forget the three behind them.

"Those two must have gotten into trouble," Harry said, looking at the two next to him.

"Even if they did, since Snape is the head of Slytherin and both are Slytherin they won't get in trouble," Hermione said, remembering two Slytherin bullying a Hufflepuff and him turning a blind eye.

"Let's follow them." Ron suddenly chased after the figures who had vanished, leaving both Hermione and Harry stunned.

"Hey! What are you doing? Come back!" Hermione said, trying to prevent Ron from causing trouble for Gryffindor, Harry trailing behind the two, also curious about what the two Slytherins got into.

"You two went to Diagon Alley correct?" Snape asked turning around to the two small Slytherins in front of him, both avoiding his intense gaze and looking at each other.

"What do you mean professor? First-years aren't allowed to leave Hogwarts." Obelia spoke first, looking at Snape but not into his eyes.

"Yes Professor, we've been exploring Hogwarts since we haven't gotten to take a

Look around everything." Draco followed, also careful not to look into Snape's eyes.

"Is that so?" Snape asked, taking a long pause making the two of them start to stress. He looked at the two and let out a sigh, "Let It be known that if the two of you cause an incident like this again, you two won't be left with just a warning."

Both Obelia and Draco glanced at each other and did a small bow, leaving the classroom Snape brought them in.

"That was terrifying," Obelia whispered to Draco, and both started to make their way to the courtyard.

"Yeah, I thought for sure he would punish us," Draco said also whispering. He then turned around hearing footsteps behind him. "What are they doing here?" Draco asked Obelia, this time in a quieter voice than before.

"Maybe their stalkers? They were spying on us in the library too." Obelia said whispering in Draco's ear. Both Draco and her were next to each other, staring directly at the three who were across from them. Obelia then grabbed Draco's hand and turned to him. "Let's run!"

___

"Should we follow after them?" Harry asked, looking at Ron and Hermione. " I mean we already figured out why the two of them were called into Snape's classroom."

"I suppose so," Ron said, looking at the figures running in front of him.

"Sneaking out of Hogwarts and into Diagon Alley is a surprise, I can't believe they aren't being punished for it," Hermione said with a frown. She believed Snape was showing too much favor to the Slytherin while taking points from other houses for the slightest mistake.

"We should tell Professor McGonagall, she must be able to do something about this!" Hermione turned around with her fist clenched and both Harry and Ron glanced a one another.

'She is making quite a big deal out of this..' They both thought before Harry looked back at her.

"But if we do Snape will know we overheard their conversation and we will get punished," Harry said, recalling the Slytherin who was forced to clean the bathrooms for missing curfew. "Why are you making a big deal out of this anyway? We saw some Gryffindors break the rules all the time, why is this any different?"

Hermione started fidgeting with her hands and finally spoke after a long pause. "Well, it's just that-"

___

"Next time we should use disguises, I have a ring that turned me into a young boy, it's amazing isn't it?" Obelia said waiting for Draco's response only to be met with silence. "Is something wrong?"

" Why do you think they're spying on us? I haven't done anything yet…" Draco said looking back at Obelia. He and Harry Potter have yet to cross paths since the beginning of school since they had separate classes, and even when they did have the same classes Harry would stay with Hermione and Ron while Draco would stay with Obelia, Crabbe, and Goyler. "Don't you think it's strange? Do you think they are plotting against us?"

"Draco… relaxed, they probably just ran into us by chance in the library. I wouldn't worry much about it, they aren't the best in magic anyways so we could take them on even if they are plotting against us." Obelia said confidently turning back around before stopping in her tracks. "But now that you mention it I do remember Hermione glaring at me in potions class." Obelia tried to remember the date but wasn't sure if it was the first or second date and stayed silent.

"Mm… Maybe I am making a big deal out of this… but we should teach them a lesson!" Draco said clenching his fist and looking at Obelia. "We need a plan!"

"Alright…" Obelia said before suddenly freezing. 'Didn't I make a promise to keep Harry from trouble? Well… I doubt Draco will pull anything drastic.'

"What should we do? Should we mess up his potions? Trick him into drinking a random potion?" Draco asked, thinking about ways to drag Harry into the mud.

"How about something simple like challenging him to a Midnight duel but not showing up?" Obelia said, not wanting to be dragged into the headmaster's office and asked about Harry.

"That's… great!" Draco formed a mischievous smile and suddenly Obelia felt like he was

plotting something more than just a small commotion.

'Now he's starting to seem like Draco Malfoy.'
