The End of the year
After months, the year has finally completed to an end,to be honest, I had achieved a lot this year, everything ranging from my studies and magical practice to building acquaintances, which was funny, I thought I would be alone in the Slytherin house, I had gained admiration and respect from students of all houses, some less than most, mostly to my contributions, the Slytherin's house won, the House cup. Everyone was gathered in the hall for the end of the year feast.
"Another year has passed, we still have a lot of important things things to announce before we start in dinner" said the Headmaster.
Dumbledore paused for a moment, see all the eyes and attention from the students before announcing the points of each houses.
"In fourth place, Griffindor with 312 points"
After announcing the score, polite applause in the hall.
The Lions looked ashamed of themselves, I mean why won't they? They basically never studied, most never studied with the excluding of Granger and the eldest Weasley.
"In thirdplace, Hufflepuffs with 352 points"
The Hufflepuffs table eruptured in cheers because they were happy about not being last this year.
I smiled at them, meeting the eyes of some of my friends on the table, silently congratulating them, causing them to return them with bright smile of their own.
"In second place, Ravenclaws with 426 points. " Of course the competitive Ravenclaws were a bit upset about not being first place but brushed it off, there was always next year.
"In first place, Slytherin with 496 points."
Discussed the slytherins to cheer loudly for their house, the decorations of the whole hall changed to slythering green and silver with the banner of slytherin.
Instead of the headmaster to announce the ownership of the house cup, he waited for a moment until the slytherins calm down and said.
"Yes, yes excellent but we have to take in account to some extra points."
Everyone was confused.
"For bravery and fearlessness, I will reward Griffin doll with 40 points thanks to Ronald weasely" causing cheers to come from the table.
"For challenging problems beyond her level I reward gryffindor with 40 points thanks to means Hermione Granger". More cheers...
"To Mr Harry Potter you have showed fearless spirit and externally courage to have been reward Griffindor with 100 points" even louder cheers.
"And also of course, I shall reward, Neville longbottom,I will reward you 10 points for standing up when facing a friend "
The Griffindor screamed in cheers...
All the other houses happy because they did not wish for Slytherins to win again this year.
Some of Blaise's acquaintances looked in his direction with pity in their eyes, knowing how Happy the boy was earlier about winning.
Soon the decorations in the whole change to Griffindor red and gold.
Those in the Slytherin house, looks like someone drained their life energy.
In the mist of all this, one long haired student had a rather terrifying look in his eyes, a look that promises nothing but pain and death.
Blaise stood up, he felt nothing but cold fury against the Headmaster and his shameless bias towards the Grinfindor. Immediately, everyone's eyes and attention were on the lone boy who looked at the Headmaster and just stared at him, without blinking.
Uncomfortable, the Dumbledore asked," is there a problem, Mr Zabini?"
"Yes, a really big one, it seems I must cut the roots off the problem to solve it." Blaise said he's cold and emotionless voice reached the ears of everyone, causing everyone to shudder.
"And what maybe that be?, Mr Zabini" Dumbledore responsed to the Cold boy.
"Excuse headmaster, but if I were to recall earlier in the year you said that we shouldn't venture to the third floor, am I right?" Blaise said with a sharp grin.
"Yes, yes I do remember,where are you going with this?" Dumbledore asked not knowing where the boy was getting at.
" If I am correct, those four earned points because of the courageous acts of bravery." It was not a question.
"To which, there when to the third floor, endangered theirs and others lives, breaking rules and rules, yet you still reward them, If I must say I don't really think you would do the same for other students of different houses, *cough*Slytherin*cough* especially not right at the end of the year, I would have accepted defeat if you had rewarded them before not directly rewarding them, when you were about to give the House cup to we Slytherins."
It could be seen that there was no flaw in what Blaise said, along with his good image was able to get their support, it was truth if it was others they would probably get detention or expelled for doing such things, it was clearly Bias, even though Blaise didn't say that, it would only be an idiot who can't understand to what he was referring to.
The Headmaster was a biased Old man especially towards the red and gold coloured house.
"And I believe, Mr. Alex Reid( who is a friend of Blaise, who is in the his 6th year and a Ravenclaw, the ravens and others respected him for his intelligence, meaning the person is perfect to back him up) I don't ever recall there being points rewarded during the end of the year feast, which the main activity was to announce the scores and reward the house cup to the winners, am i correct?" The grin on his face was still bright.
"Yes, of course, everything that you said is correct, there should not be rewarding of points during the end of the year, and I also believe the four should be punished rather than rewarded for their reckless and dangerous behavior." Alex Reid supported me." I also suggest the slytherins so win because there earned their points fair and square without endangering their lives and others." Oof..
This cause an uproar in the great hall, clearing they can not see the unjust behavior of rewarding first years for reckless behavior.
The professors looked at the Headmaster, the old man had to do something before things got out of hand, his plan could have worked if it wasn't because of a certain Slytherin who was still standing with a wide grin on his face, to be honest he felt the magic pouring out of the boy, deciding
"Yes, I apologize, it seems I have been getting too old..., I keep forgetting things, yes, I shall remove all points given earlier and declare the Slytherin has won the house cup!" He said trying to aplease the angry students. The decorations once again changed to their rightful colours Slytherin green and Silver.
Cheers from all students who supported this decision.The Grinfindors were glaring over at the Slytherin table for taking away their chances at winning the house cup, even though in their heart, knew they don't deserve it.
Blaise finally sat down, he had earned more respect from his house and friends, Derek who was sitting beside the boy the whole time, looked at Blaise and said.
" You are truly crazy for going against the Headmaster and turning everyone's back at him, " Derek said cheekily.
Blaise smacked him on his head" if I am crazy for speaking the truth and staying loyal to my house, I can't really call myself a Slytherin, if I don't do everything in my power to achieve my goals." Blaise sincerely said, this caused the others from both the Slytherin table and others who happen to hear his response to respect him even more.
"Plus, I can't really stand that something in my grasp, should be taken from me, I don't care who it is, the Headmaster? ,Hell nothing would save him, if I truly declare him my enemy." Blaise said softly, the only one who had was Derek, He(Derek) knew that he should believe the boy, who wouldn't the boy looked at the Headmaster as if I have spat on his dead pet corpse.
Derek knew that the boy had changed ever since Yule, the boy felt and looked more powerful, he could feel it. Being the good friend he was, smiled at Blaise, supporting him.
