~*~Chapter 3~*~
Juline was impressed that the house was still standing. The casual observer might have thought World War III was taking place within the old Victorian estate, but it wasn’t a smoking pile of rubble…yet. Two of the four witches had a tendency to explode things when pissed off, which had resulted in this being their fifth house in as many years.
Chris had cursed Voldemort, and Fudge to the very bottom of the Nine Hells. Emily and Rini, having a longer fuse than their sister and friend, were a little less colorful in their anger, though no less venomous. Then Juline told them about Dumbledore’s “request”…and the fact that she agreed.
“What?!” Chris practically shrieked. “How the bloody hell did that happen? You didn’t even want to meet with him!” She fixed Juline with a glare that could melt steel. “I.
Don’t. Want. Anything. To. Do. With. Moldyfort.” She ground out between clenched teeth.
“And you think I do?” Juline spat as she paced in front of the study’s fireplace. “We don’t have to deal with him. We just do what we do best: go in, get the goods, and get the hell out of there. That’s it. We have a choice, those kids don’t. We could at least do this for ‘em.”
Chris’ eyes narrowed as she watched Juline fidget, “Alright, what did he offer you?” Juline mumbled something as she sat on top of her dark oak-wood desk and riffled through papers.
“Excuse me? I didn’t quite catch that.”
“Potions Master!”
This time, even her sisters swore. Juline was a very talented witch, as were they all in their own ways, and potions was one of the things she really excelled at. She loved the arcane art to a point beyond obsession and was always hunting for rare ingredients and lost recipes. About three or four years ago, Juline had stumbled across an incredibly complex potion, called La Drought de Immortallia, in an ancient tome on a ‘job’ and naturally, wanted to try it. Unfortunately it required a lot of extremely rare ingredients and the procedure itself was so complex it required two high-level potions masters to complete it successfully. She’d some how managed to scrape together all the ingredients, including the elusive Vampire’s Drop of Love, however trying to find a potions master somewhere near her level had proved…difficult. Thus her bizarre interest in Albus’ offer.
“Juline…get help! You’re fucking obsessed! And I thought you two were supposed to go with her!”
Emily shrugged, “She didn’t want us to.”
“Yeah,” Rini said, defensively. “Besides, how were we supposed to know he had that kind of ace up his sleeve?”
Chris threw her hands up in disgust and frustration. “This is just wonderful. So what mess have you and your hobby gotten us into this time? What exactly does the old man want us to do?” Chris made her way to the mini-bar in the corner of the room. “I think I need a drink…”
Juline watched Chris prepare herself a shot of Black Magic as she thought of how to explain Albus’ plan to the other witches in a way that wouldn’t result in her death and/or dismemberment. Figuring that choking on alcohol would distract Chris long enough for her to make her escape, Juline decided to just spit it out. “He wants us to enroll as students so we can snoop around with less suspicion.” Juline dashed out the study door as Chris sprayed the shot she was about to down across the room.
The younger girls glanced at each other with a ‘what just happened’ expression. Eyes widening in realization, they took off after their elder sister to wring some answers out of her, leaving Chris behind to recover from her choking fit.
A few minutes later, a panting Juline poked her head back into the study. “Is it safe to come in?” she asked, pouting at her best friend’s glare.
“I have decided to let you live, rather than deal with house hunting. At least, long enough to explain. I mean Rini, and maybe Emily could pass as students but there is no way on God’s Green Earth that the two of us could pass as high-schoolers. And if you make one height crack I will kill you…”
“How generous of you,” Juline said as she rolled her eyes. “I already thought of that problem and asked Albus why we couldn’t go as professors and he said he only had two positions open: one was already filled and the other is Defense Against the Dark Arts. 1) That position is rumored to be cursed and 2) that only gets one of us on the campus. Not to mention the fact that neither of us has a teaching certificate.” Juline held up her hand, stopping Chris before she could interrupt. “And yes, I know we could forge those documents, but apparently the Ministry has been keeping an annoyingly close watch on Albus lately and I really don’t want them poking too closely into our pasts. Students aren’t as closely scrutinized as the faculty, especially when the ‘parents’ of those students make large donations to the Ministry’s finances.” Juline smirked.
“That still doesn’t explain how we are supposed to pass as sixteen year olds. Unless you’ve suddenly become a shapeshifter without telling me, or do you have a de-aging potion on hand?”
Juline conjured a crystal and proceed to fiddle with it. “He said that was up to us, as he was sure that with our resources we’d come up with something. I thought about a potion at first, but age-influencing ones are unstable and you have to keep retaking them at certain intervals. Plus the resulan van vary from batch to batch. We could start out looking like 7th years and end up looking like 1st years by Christmas.” She flipped the crystal to her other hand, and suddenly there were two.
