Magnus was faster than any broom ever made or maybe will ever be made. He zoomed towards her. The audience gasped seeing the scene.
"HORZ MAH HANZ!" he called out.
"I CAN'T SEE YOU. AND WHY ARE YOU TALKING LIKE THIS?" She shouted back.
Magnus gritted his teeth and increased his speed. She was close to hitting the ground.
She closed her eyes, waiting for the pain to come on the impact. The broken broom had lost all its life by now and she was falling at full speed.
"GOTTHA..."
She heard Magnus's voice and felt something grabbed onto her wrist. She opened her eyes again and saw Magnus holding her with one hand. His blonde hair fluttered over her face as he looked at her with his now red eyes.
She looked at his furrowed face, but the next moment, she started laughing. "HAHAHAHA! You are a crazy boy."
Magnus shook his head. She was still hanging in mid-air and had the audacity to laugh at him. But, she did not laugh due to him coming to save her. But because of what he did before that.
Right now, in between Magnus's teeth was the golden snitch, stuck and flapping its wings trying to get free. Although he wanted to save Emma, he still didn't want to lose the match.
In fact, everyone was confused about what happened to the golden snitch as nobody saw it after Magnus headed towards Emma.
Magnus slowly lowered his broom and arrived at the ground. He lowered Emma to the ground and then dismounted himself as well.
Then, to put an end to the game, he took the golden snitch held between his jaws and showed it to everyone with his hands. He raised it in the air and within that instant, a loud whistle came, signifying the end of the match.
"MAGNUS HAS CAUGHT THE GOLDEN SNITCH. SLYTHERIN WON!" the commentator announced and lots of students cheered. In all honesty, Magnus was more liked in other houses than in Slytherin.
Magnus though was not happy at all. He looked at the senior Slytherin players in the air, who were responsible for what had happened right now. They most likely targeted her.
~Fine, I will play by your dirty rules then.~ He decided and looked at Emma.
"You okay?" He asked.
"Yup, 'Tis but a scratch." She replied exactly how once Magnus did.
"Hehe, get up then. We won." He cheered.
Then his eyes fell on the sad form of James. "Get ready to face the consequences."
James shivered hearing him and looked away, though he knew he could not get away from this. After all, he can not run away from school.
Magnus waved his hand towards the audience, showing the golden snitch. It was his first win and he was also happy. Eventually, the crowd dispersed and the celebrations started in the Slytherin common room. Magnus did not say anything to Lucius as talking to him would be dragging himself down. Now it was time to answer in the same tone.
"It was them, wasn't it?" Ragnar scowled at the Slytherin gang.
"Yup, it was they who threw it." Magnus nodded.
"Then we should start planning for a good payback," Snape said.
Magnus and Ragnar looked at Snape in shock. Magnus asked, "Am I hearing correctly? Sev want to take the first step?"
Snape scoffed, "They are actively trying to physically harm us now. We cannot sit silent."
Ragnar nodded, "True, true. Let's add some poison to their food."
"WHAT? We don't want to kill them, Ragnar." Magnus objected.
"No, no, I was not talking about mortally wounding poison. Like, some voice changing, slug vomiting, hair change, balding potions." Ragnar clarified.
"Cool, start brewing it then. Anyway, you got the special underwear for James ready?" Magnus asked.
Ragnar smiled evilly, "Hehe, yes I do. I chose an extra small one and the special print you asked for on it is also clearly made."
Magnus smiled, "It's going to be fun. Let's go to Gryffindor's common room."
"HEY... take me too. I helped you win after all." Emma came running to them.
"Sure, you can join us now. They are attacking you anyway." Magnus let her follow them.
They arrived at the Gryffindor tower. They did not know what the password was so they knocked on the door. They stayed there for a while because the common rooms are big and hearing knocks inside is hard.
Soon, the door was opened by a prefect. Magnus smiled, "Hello, where is James? He lost the bet, now it is time to face the challenge like a true Gryffindor."
The prefect chuckled and went inside to call James and his friends. After a while, James, Sirius, Remus and Peter came.
Sirius laughed loudly seeing Magnus' smirking face and James' frowning face.
"What have you planned for James?" Sirius asked.
Magnus smiled, "As planned while betting. He shall buy Nimbus 1500 for my whole team."
"Thank you for that," Emma added.
Magnus continued, "The next is, the main part. Running around the school in underwear. And here is your underwear."
Magnus took out a small piece of cloth from his pocket and handed it to James.
It was small and white for the most part. Except where the image pattern was. James started at it in horror. This was not what he imagined he would need to wear.
"What's with this pattern on it? Are you trying to get me expelled?" James questioned.
"Don't worry. It's harmless. Nobody's going to expel you for such a small thing. Now, get ready, you will need to run around the school in the evening, before bedtime." Magnus told him.
James took a sigh of relief, thinking that now because he had to run late at night, not many would be out to see him and his honour could remain intact for the most part.
So wrong he was to think that. The whole school knew about this bet and were waiting to see James embarrass himself.
So, when people finished their dinner and headed back to their common rooms, they in fact avoided going back and roamed around the castle.
Magnus, Ragnar, Snape and Emma waited in the corridor leading out from the Gryffindor common room.
"Is he really going to do it?" Emma asked in wonder.
Magnus nodded, "He must, or he knows he will be shamed as a proud Griffindor."
"Oof... I don't have enough guts to imagine myself in his place." Ragnar felt pity for James.
"LOOK... the door opened." Snape pointed.
They turned to see. Soon, a figure came out of the common room. It was James. All naked except the underwear. He was trying to hide his crotch with his hands.
"HAHA... RUN, BOY." Magnus shouted.
Soon, James cursed at him and started to run. Behind him, Sirius, Remus and Peter also followed him. Magnus and his friends did the same.
After a while, James's misconception that there won't be lots of students also cleared up as he saw the corridors filled and many whistles coming his way.
People pointed towards his underwear, mainly the pattern on it. It was nothing but the face of Dumbledore with an open mouth. James now just hoped that Dumbledore wouldn't see it.
But, to his deepest fears, Dumbledore just came out of the great hall as he was passing by. He and McGonagall were taken aback by his naked form.
Dumbledore's eyes fell on his own face on the underwear and he stroked his beard, ~When did they take that picture?~
Professor McGonagall though ran after James as the head of Gryffindor house. She could not allow such actions in the school.
"MR POTTER. STOP." She shouted.
James closed his eyes and kept on running, "SORRY, PROFESSOR. BUT A GRYFFINDOR NEVER BREAKS HIS WORDS."
"YOUR PARENTS WILL BE BREAKING YOUR BONES IF YOU DO NOT STOP THIS INSTANT!" She replied.
"SO BE IT!" James said and picked up his speed.
Hearing him, Magnus, Sirius and the rest rolled on the floor in laughter. Their stomachs hurt from it.
That night, the castle howled in laughter. James lost a bit of his self-respect but odds were in his favour because he was just in 1st year and most would soon forget about the incident. The Christmas holiday was coming soon anyway so people would be going home.
James finished his one round around the castle and quickly returned to his common room. He was sure he would get detention the next day. Magnus might get it too to be the one forcing this event to take place, but he did not care, it was time and energy well spent.
Magnus returned to his room and played with his three pets for a while before getting back to learning runes. He was excited about it because he wanted to develop spells too.
"What are you working on, Sev?" Magnus asked, seeing his friend working on some books.
"A new curse. An improved version of some other spells. I call it Sectumsempra. But I need to work on it." Snape replied.
Magnus whistled, "Woah, I am surrounded by geniuses."
Then his eyes fell on his 3 pets, "And three blokes."
As soon as they heard him, they attacked as if he was understood. They tried to climb his body.
"MEOOOOOW..."
"QUAAAACK"
"ORRRRRRR"
"HAHA... what is this? Attack on Magnus? All right, I'll show who's the boss." Hence, Magnus did some wrestling with the three, making them happy.
