My Amnesic Boyfriend Slams Into Me While Singing The Hallelujah Chorus
"Let's begin," the old man who I now knew as 'Dumbly-dore' said gravely.
I raised my eyebrows. "Begin what? Begin flying? Begin writing check marks on people's foreheads? Be specific!"
I heard the gangly boy with flaming red hair mutter to the boy with glasses, "I like 'em feisty!"
I glared at him, and put up my fists, feeling satisfied when he held up his hands in surrender.
Dumbly-dore didn't seem to be aware of what just happened. "I don't expect any of you to remember what I said tonight, so I will dismiss you with a couple of words that will keep you awake for many nights."
All the demigods looked at him skeptically. I think I was the only one who was feeling clammy.
Dumbly-dore contunued, "Apophis and Voldemort are being recruited by Porphyrion and his giants.
He waited for a reaction. Travis muttered, "Cricket, cricket.
Thalia silently stepped on his foot.
"Tthat really hurt, Thalia, you shouldn't do that, bad girl, very bad girl.
Thalia punched him in the nose, and it started bleeding. Everyone took one step away from Travis: "Ketchup's coming from my nose! Nooooo!"
Dumbly-dore frowned. "Very well. I can see that you are not very awake, so I will continue this in the morning. Meet me in myu office at 10:00."
Slowly, that absent-minded boy who cahnged Jason into a matchbox raised his hand and squeaked, "What about me?"
This time, McGonagall spoke. "You will come to my class, and work on turning goblets into matchboxes. I will make sure to bring some protective gear.
Dumbly-dore nodded at McGonagall. "I'm sure the knight in front of my office will do... Anyone care for a lemon drop? It helps you sleep better."
Travis covered his mouth, bit I could still hear him whisper, "Awkward silence."
We stood looking at Dumbly-dore apprehensively.
Suddenly, we heard the sound of breaking glass cracking open. Someone screamed like a girl, and it seemed like there was also an old lady singing the Hallelujah Chorus.
I was knocked flat on the floor. Then, I looked up.
"Percy?"
