Liz sat in the library, chewing on an apple and trying to finish the home-task for Divination. She had no real talent in the subject apparently, so Liz usually resorted to just making stuff up as most of the students. However she was all out of inspiration today. Liz finished off the apple, being rater glad that a book-self was shielding her from madam Pince’s watchful eyes, or Liz would have probably been thrown up by her already. Food wasn’t really allowed in the library, but Liz had been hungry. Thanks to some mean prank some older Slytherin had pulled on her, Liz had spent a couple of hours in a secret room, trying to get the hex off of her, so she had missed lunch.
Now wanting revenge Liz decided that she could work on Divination later and stood up to see if she could maybe find some inspiration from some book sin the library. Idly browsing a couple of the nearer isles, Liz came up with nothing interesting, so she returned to her desk and slumped back into her seat, letting her head fall on the table with a small thud, groaning a little as her forehead hit the table.
Liz tried to think of something… anything to use as pay-back. Liz was rather shy and drawn-back, but this time her Gryffindor pride wouldn’t allow this to pass away that easily. That Slytherin would need to learn that Gryffindors weren’t messed with that easily.
Liz jumped as she heard someone speaking – probably to her, as Liz focused her eyes on the person near the table she was sitting at. Blushing, Liz hoped she hadn’t made a complete fool out of herself as she recognized the guy in front of her as a fifth year Gryffindor. “Hi,” Liz managed to smile despite her light blush and wondered what the guy might want.
((Hope you don’t the last paragraph. If you do, just let me know and I’ll change it))

Justin was in a bit of a snag, his prank had'nt gone off as he hads planned and what was worse, he had accidenitl blown the girls toilets up, but at least they had'nt found out who had done it. Slightly grinning, he walked around aimlessly, looking for somewhere to spend some time. As he wandered the corridors, he spotted a girl get cursed by a Slytherin, he recognized this girl, she was one his fellow Gryffindors. He woulkd'nt stand for this, but he would wait and help the girl. He notice the girl disappear, so he decided to try and find her later.
It took him a while, but Justin finally figured out where he wanted to go, the liibrary, what better place for a alaby. Taking a turn down the next corridor, he walked to the entrance to the library and entered it. Glancing around as he entered, Justin headed to the back and sat down at a table. He put his head down, and soon he fell asleep.
He woke up thirty minutes later and saw a girl walk by him. He had'nt noticed at first, but he realised soon after that it was the girl that he had seen hexed. Standing up, he followed her, he watched her sit down and walked over torwards her. Smiling he said " HI there, I did'nt know that this was the section for pretty girls, or did I miss the memo, oh well, may I join you?" in his usual polite voice.

Liz blushed at the guys comment, but decided to go with the light tone: “No, nice guys can come here as well.” Liz figured it had been said as a joke, as she didn’t really consider herself pretty. OK-looking – yes, but not very beautiful.
Liz looked at the guy thoughtfully, trying to recall from where he looked so familiar, before it reached her. It was a fellow Gryffindor – a fifth year and quite the prankster of the house now that the Weasley twins were gone.
Liz bit her lower lip hesitantly and decided to go for it, as she didn’t have any ideas herself: “You pull quite many pranks, am I right?” Liz knew such things – she was rather shy, so she didn’t have very many friends, meaning she had time to sit alone silently. That had made Liz rather observant and also helped her grades a great deal.
“Have nay ideas for a prank for revenge? I would leave it alone, but it was pulled on me by a Slytherin and can’t let one of those get away, right?” Liz asked with a broad grin as she nodded for Justin to sit down, “I don’t have any idea what to do though.”<br>

Justin winked at her and said, " Thanks." As he sat down, he let his bag drop on the floor and he looked back at the girl. He heard her questions and he answered " Well actuall yes, I do pull off a lot of pranks, oh and i have ideas for revenge." He looked around, thinking about his many inventions. Grinning, Justin looked at the girl and said " Oh yeah almost forgot, I'm Justin Lionheart, and you are?"

“Care to share your ideas?” Liz asked with a shy smile, being glad that she would at least have someone to talk to about some prank, “I don’t want to hurt the Slytherin, but can’t let her keep going with the thought she can that easily attack GRyffindors either.” IT was true – Liz was a peaceful person and didn’t want to hurt anyone, even when she had been attacked first. But even so, she hadn’t been permanently harmed. Maybe that was also one of the reason that made Liz want to become a healer one day.
“It’s a pleasure to meet you, Justin. I’m Liz. Elizabeth Connely, if you want to be formal, but fri… but everybody just call me Liz,” Liz changed her sentence, in the middle. She was called Liz, but she didn’t really have many friends, because of her shy nature, so Liz was often forgot in the back-ground. She had met Faith in the student lounge the other day, and Liz hoped Faith would be a friend, but there weren’t much more people who Liz could address as friends.

Justin thought for a second, then said " Well what do you want to do to the Slytherin, embarassment, or you could prank a whole group of them." This was one of Justin's specialties, as many knew. Listening to the girl again, he said " Well nice to meet you Liz, glad I got top knw another pretty girl, anyways back to this whole revenge thing." He began to think again.
Looking around, it struck him as how odd this situation was, usually it was him just getting his own revenge, but now he wasd helping people. Grinning broadly, he said " Alriight, you want something to get revng, I'll have to know what you want to do."

Liz blushed again as Justin commented about getting to know a pretty girl like that: “Thank you for the compliment, but I’m not really that pretty.” Liz smiled shyly – she really didn’t think she was pretty, never had. Luckily she had never have any complexes about her appearance either.
“As to what I want to do,” Liz leaned her chin on her hand and pondered about it, “Not that’s a hard question. I’m rather new to pranking. Back at home my bro used to do it, but not me.” Liz smiled fondly recalling her tall, blond-haired and blue-eyes brother, who was an awesome athlete who would probably go into professional foot-ball. Liz’s brother was a charmer, so he always got away rather easily, even when caught red-handed. Liz and her brother were surprisingly close even though they had rather different personalities, as her brother was as social as Liz was shy.
“I don’t want to hurt the Slytherins physically, so I guess it will be a bit of embarrassment then,” Liz recalled how she had helped some first years, who had been bullied by some Slytherins and an angry fire flashed through her eyes, “And actually that bunch of bullies – I think they are around my year – could deserve someone to show them into their place as well, as the first and second years they terrorize can’t really do much yet.”<br>

Justin looked at Liz thoughtfully and said " Well, you do'nt want to hurt 'em, you just want to embarrass. Hmm, I like it, it's doable. Now a whole group that terroizes younger students, I'll really cook something up for them." He thoughht back to where he hid his stash, then grinned and said " Well I have the perfect solution to get the one person you want to get, but do'nt worry it wo'nt hurt, but maybe it might make them very very stinky. Here it is, when that person goes to the bathroom, we throw in my deluxe firework and blow it up, causing all the toilets that particular bathroom to shoot their water back up, that is if you want to, we can get all the other students out of there before we do it."
He stood up, looked around then sid " Well if that's settled, what do you say the young handsome boy takes the girl for a walk?" he stood in front of her, holding out his hand, ready to lead her out of the library.

Liz chuckled as Justin told about his plan and grinned at him broadly: “That sounds awesome. Just what I need. Just what the bullies deserve. I hate it when they pick on younger students and other students on the whole. It’s just so infuriating!” For a brief moment, anger flashed through Liz’s eyes – she loved kids and animals and absolutely detested bullying and unfairness. Her heart just went out to anyone in trouble or in pain – it was in Liz’s nature and there was nothing she could do about it.
Liz giggled once again at Justin’s last words as she stood up and made a mocking curtsey towards Justin: “I’m honored. A knight in shining armor ready to rid the world – or school at this case – of some of the arrogance of Slytherin bullies. Lead us to our fight for honor and justice and pay-back pranks.”<br>Liz grinned a bit more shyly once again as she walker towards the doors to leave the library with Justin: “Or a bit more nicely put – what do you want me to do?”<br>
