Never goes to plan. Never. Always bored. Always. What can you do at a freezing cold castle during the middle of the holidays, other than throw snowballs, fall flat on your backside, and make snowmen? You tell me that, and i'll buy you a dragon. Vicky was bored like everyone else.
The trip to Hogsmeade wasn't until next week, and Victoria really needed some warmer clothes. She hadn't expected it to be so cold at the castle, not even the smallest radiator or charm was set upon the school. So, there was only one way that she was going to get to Hogsmeade. The Shrieking Shack. And that meant facing the Whomping Willow.
Picking up her wand and stowing it into her robes, she walked quickly through the freezing castle and stepped outside. Vicky gasped as she got a faceful of cold wind, and student in the Entrance Hall hurried her to shut the door. Walking down the steps, she made her way over to the enchanted tree.
Out came the wand, pointing it at a firm branch, she muttered, "Wingardium Leviosa." Moving the branch through the air, she poked the knot, and the tree froze. Dropping the branch, Vicky put her wand back into her robes and began to walk towards the gap in the roots. That is until, the tree unfroze itself. Recieving a thick branch to the waist, she hung on for dear life, before she was cast away from the tree, hurtling right into another student. She grumbled to herself, and rolled of the person she had knocked over, laying on the floor. "Why?" She asked herself.
