Drabble Time

**Ellemanae**

Welcome to Drabble time. I am doing this class for my red hand badge in badge burrow. Admin or moderators will mark this class and perhaps continue the idea further.

For this class, myself and staff will hopefully present you with different topics which to create a drabble for. A drabble is a 100 word mini-story with no more or less words than 95 or 105.

Your first assignment of a drabble is as follows:

Write a drabble with the prompt word of......'Witches'

For taking part - 50 points
Best drabble - 100 points

As grandfather opened the wrecked book I noticed a name of belonging. Foreign and exotic it wasn’t my families’. As I opened my mouth my elder stared me in the eyes, a warning of silence. As he turned the next page there greeted an ungrateful cat with piecing yellow eyes. He once again turned the page I looked up he stared back smiling.

“Grandpa there is nothing here…” I muttered looking back and forth at the blank page. He spoke up pulling my hair behind my ear.

“Well… When do witches come out to play?” His velvet voice crackled from old age. I stared at him in disbelief. It took me a moment to think him through; his silly question ran through my ear.

“Witches?” I muttered for an explanation. “Are you talking about Halloween?”

He flipped through the pages and handed me the empty book. On the night of Halloween my grandfather came into the scene of the party. Out of the corner of his gray eyes he gave me a wink and walked into kitchen to help. I was called to light a jack-o-lantern when my grandfather needed a candle. I rushed to my room where the mysterious book lay. I hesitated to leave once I held a candle in hand. Quickly I opened the book.

In golden letters my name was written in fine calligraphy. The greeting cat grew a smile over night and ran off the page. I couldn’t believe was I was seeing, my window flew open and God gave me that sign of belief I longed for. The cat jumped to the sky where a flying witch reached out and pulled it away to the moon.

Edit: Why cant we do more than 105 words? Do I not get points because I exeeded the limit?

Edit Edit: My post is 286 words and it dosent follow drabble requirments. (I understand that now.. I have been writing alot more drabbles)

The girls were huddled around each other, trying to create a semblance of warmth as they waited out the sleeting rain.

Henry was about to walk past them when he saw who they were, and paused. His parents, uncles and aunts were forever warning him about those girls – unaccompanied, beautiful to a fault.

He never saw any malice in them, but nursed the superstitious prejudice most other villagers had about those sorts.

Trying to look apathetic, Henry walked past them, giving them as wide a berth as he could without looking impolite. His eye caught that of the closest girl, and he shuddered. Witches, he thought.

(106 words, is that okay? ><)

Witches.

How lightly was that term thrown around nowadays!

Before arriving at Hogwarts, Claire hadn’t spared a thought to witches in years, and the word was used to describe a horrid person more than a magical one. Now she was surrounded by them – and one herself! There were mostly good witches here (she couldn’t help think of Glinda and the Wicked Witch of the Oz series – her childhood brainfood), but some she couldn’t wait to hex.

One of these was Penelope, who daily sauntered past Claire’s seat and knocked off her books.

Witch! Claire thought. It was no mystery which connotation she meant.

“What did you say?” I asked.

“Witches! I saw them with my own eyes! They were making some kind of potion” Roy said.

“That was just mom making soup” I replied.

“She had a wart on her nose and she was wearing a cloak” he said

“That’s mom alright” I said trying to hold back a laugh.

“Oh I didn’t know” he said looking at the ground now.

“Is there anything else you want to tell me about?”

“I saw a wizard too!”

“That’s just the neighbor Simon playing Dungeons and Dragons with the neighbor boys” I said rolling my eyes.

“You’re wearing britches. You must be witches.” It was the dumbest taunt Cherry had ever heard the boys in her class come up with. That was saying something, too. They never came up with intelligent taunts.

“It’s true,” Ro whispered. “Well, it’s true for me. And it’s true for you Cherry. I saw you.”

Cherry had no choice but to feign ignorance, but the truth was someone had come and told her all about Hogwarts. She would be separating from her friends in just a couple months time. Maybe she’d have one friend coming along too. She could only hope.

It may be terrible, but it's 100 words exactly...and I didn't even have to chop it to little bits. Woo hoo!!

"Wait, your a what?" John Evans gripped the edge of the table. He felt dizzy all of the sudden. There was no way this was possible. Lily, his Lily! She was as plain jane as they get! She couldn't be a, a, oh, he couldn't even think it! All he knew was there were a few owls around the place this morning, a strange letter, and now this? No other notice? He felt his knees start to go out from under him as she slowly whispered to him.
"Well, dad. I am a witch" And then, the room blacked out.

"Witches!" I whispered, pointing up at the sky. I would be late for my first day of third grade if I didn't hurry up, but it wasn't every day that I saw real witches in broad daylight!

They swooped down and landed smoothly about ten feet away. They were speaking in low voices, using words I didn't understand. I couldn't help staring.

"I think the child can see us," one of them remarked, looking right at me. I gasped.

"Well, then, I expect she'll be getting her Hogwarts letter soon," her companion replied nonchalantly. She winked at me and then they both disappeared.

Giggling I ran down the hall with Hugo are wands held behind us as we shot sprinkles from the end. Squirting them in peoples faces as we flew by. We collapsed in a heap of smiles and laughter at the end of the hall tears streaming down are faces.

The soft clip clop of footsteps silenced us for a split second as our eyes flashed but our laughter busted out from our mouths filling the hall as Professor Pincent’s harsh eyes loomed down on us. ‘Will you two stop it you are by far the naughtiest witch and wizard….’ Her voice became little more than a drone.

"I have told you a hundred times, magic is not real!" exclaimed my mother after I've told her that I met some witches.

"But I have told you a..THOUSAND times! They are! They are! They are!" I kept telling her to stand with what I've said. "They are real and I saw it! They made chocolate chips out of a chocolate bar in an instant! In front of your beautiful daughter's own eyes!" I told her desperately.

"Enough with this stuffs, Kate! There's no such thing as you say still exist..or even EVER existed! They...are...not...REAL!!!"

“Witches,” Ron sighed as he rolled his eyes. “Honestly, what is it that is so bloody attractive about Malfoy to them? I mean even Hermione has a collection of photographs of him!”

“Ginny has a collection too,” Harry replied with a scowl.

“Bloody insane, it is. Did you know that he got a restraining order on Fleur because she started stealing his socks? His socks mate, his socks! “

“If Ginny did that I would send her packing to loonyville,” Harry commented. “Well, unless it was for some voodoo spell and then I am a-okay.”

They then both shared a laugh as their girls fawned over the photoshoot.

“Witches! Boody Witches!”

Harry Potter was pacing up and down the Gryffindor common room.

“First they tease with us, then they flirt with us, then lead us on and then BAM! They make an 180 turn and start yelling and crying and then yell a bit more and then, outrageous, they slap us and storm off!”

Ron was sitting in a chair nearby watching his friend wearing out the carpet.

“Chill out dude, she’ll be here in no time again.”

Harry stopped to look at him.

“Hello, that’s no not the point.”

“What’s the point then?”

“Witches! Can’t live them, can’ live without them!”

Witches. Sirius smirked to himself as he crossed his arms and leaned against the stairwell by the Great Hall entrance. As usual, Padfoot was late. Probably chasing after Evans somewhere and forgotten that he was supposed to meet Sirius. Luckily, he didn’t have too much problems with that. It just gave him time to do what he loved best. Girl watch. The way they walked, their hips swaying beneath the skirts…

What could he say? He loved witches. In all shapes and sizes, but preferably in the attractive shapes. Yet he wasn’t too picky. After all, to him they were like perfection on earth.

“WITCHES!!!!” Someone shouted. Her head hurt from all the screaming from the last two days. Ok, she got it. She was the witch. Sitting up, she looked for her wand, walking out into the hall. “What now granny?” she asked. Her eyes were wide with fear, her mouth open in horror. “Witches..” She mumbled over and over. Her granny was losing it. “Granny…I’m a witch remember?” She asked her. Her granny shook her head, staring out into street. She sighed, shaking her head. Leaning her head against the window, she tried to think back to when her granny got sick.
