Well... this is a great way to start the weekend!
Shane was finally free at last, he finally gotten done with  his homework and he was free for the rest of the day and weekend! Of course he had detention to do, but he'll do that tonight before he sneaks off to see his friends.  Not caring that he had detention after telling Romeo off, he was determined to make the best of his weekend.  Although he knew it wasn't long before the next full moon, but he was going to make sure he had some wolfbane for when he turns.  Although no one knew but Olivia and him, not even his friends.

Walking down the Entrance Hall towards the Great Hall he smiled and waved at a couple of people as he entered the Great Hall.  Walking into the Great Hall he sat down at the Gryffindor table as his hazel eyes wondered around for his friends, Olivia and Jamie. Sighing as he didn't see them, Shane took a seat in his normal place.   Perhaps they were on dates or something and just running a bit late. Shane hated that they didn't see each other then on weekends or after classes when they gotten a chance.  Shane guesses it was because of so much trouble they caused last year, they decided to split the foursome best mates.

"I hope they come quickly."Shane thought to himself sighing.  Seeing Romeo Shane's eyes narrowed at him. Shane didn't know why he hated him so much, but Romeo hated Shane and Shane hated him.  It was probably because they were the complete opposite of each other, Romeo was a player to where Shane wasn't, Romeo was rude and self centered to where Shane wasn't, but they both seem to attract girls based on how they were though.  But Shane attracted girls but his kindess towards them and his nice charming smile or that's what he heard from Katie who heard some girls talking about him.  To be honest, Shane thinks that Romeo is jealous and thinks that Shane is trying to steal all the girls away from him.

Of course that wasn't true, Shane just walked down the hall and excuses him and then smiles and thanks them as he walks pass. It wasn't his fault if girls thought he had dreamy smile with gorgeous eyes.  Although he didn't mind what they thought, he was flattered and all but he liked one girl, and that was Olivia obviously but of course she didn't know due to him hiding his feeling very well from her.  Of course quote of bit of people knew about this, but it was only his best mates, Taranee, Maura, Jamie and Katie. Of course they were sworn not to tell anyone especially Olivia about this.

Alas, the weekend was here, time for Romeo to put his preparations into action. Throughout the past week Romeo had been spending almost every waking hour in the potions classroom with Vivianna Varnes, sixth year Slytherin. What they had been brewing in there was a cauldron full of revenge. Their victim: Shane Diamond and Maura Goldstein.

Yesterday Vivianna had spoken two words in the common room too him: 'They're ready.' After taking two vials, one of each potion, Romeo had made an effort to clear away all evidence that they'd ever brewed a potion. 

The two potions were rather basic, in theory, but complicated to make given the additions Viv had thrown into the cauldron. 

The first: forgetfulness potion. 
Target: Maura Goldstein
Desired Effect: Wipe all existence of her boyfriend from her memory.
Added Effect: Rose petals and dragon scales to make her more susceptible to falling love.

If all went to plan Romeo would flirt with the Hufflepuff, not that he wanted to anymore, and infatuated her. That was the most difficult part of the task, even though she would forget all about Ryo she still disliked Romeo but hopefully the added ingredients would make that easier however.

Second Potion: Wart Producing Potion
Target: Shane Diamond
Desired Effect: Cause him to sprout warts over his entire body.
Added Effect: Make them particularly difficult to remove by adding a sticking component to the potion. 

Again, thanks to Vivianna, it would make Romeo's revenge that much more thrilling. He had to hand it to her she was more than just a red head with an alluring wit. She had brains. Brains that he wished he had, not that he needed them, his looks made up for that. Not that Romeo wasn't clever, he was, he just didn't always apply himself. 

As Romeo entered the hall he didn't look for any particularly attractive girl, nor did he pay any attention to the girls swooning over him as he walked by. He had one focus and one focus only: Shane Diamond. 

'Shane.' Romeo said as he reached the Gryffindor table where Shane was sat, a curt nod following his greeting. The Slytherin was stood the other side to where Romeo was sat, it was perfect. Under his left sleeve was one potion then under his right was the other. All he needed to do was lean forward and rest his hand near the goblet and BAM  Shane would be poisoned. 

Romeo reached forward, ready to whisper a decoy to Shane. Although there was a snag. Was it the left or the right that had the wart producing potion? Left. Defiantly left. Well, it could be the right, dam. Romeo was wishing he'd thought more about that. No. No. No. It was defiantly left, it had to be? 

Resting his left hand infront of Shane's  goblet allowing the concealed potion to trickle from the sleeve behind. 'Hope you enjoy your detention. Just remember, try any stupid stunt again and you'll be in more than detention.' 

With that he raised his sleeve back, feeling a bit if the potion drip against his hand. Fantastic. His goblet had been contaminated, as soon as the drink touched Shane's lips the Gryffindor would begin to sprout warts all over his face, hands, feet, leg, neck, torso and even the bit below the belt. Not only warts. Painful warts. The girls wouldn't be going near him anytime soon. 

Turning away he caught sight of the Hufflepuff table. Now, to find Maura Goldstein.

Shane looked at Romeo and let out a low growl as his hazel eyes looked at Romeo and rolled his eyes.  "What's the matter Zabini, didn't like being beat by a Gryffindor?"Shane asked him smirking.  "You know, must be horrible being knocked out by a girl as well, I heard that went around the school like crazy!"said Shane laughing.  "You might want to be careful Zabini, I have friends that will hurt you!"said Shane smirking at him.  "That'll be a pity to see that face you so much hurt again!"said Shane laughing.

As Romeo Shane rolled his eyes and let out a low growl.  He hated Romeo with everything that was inside of him, and Shane never hated anyone as he did Romeo.  Shane couldn't see what girls found so interesting about him, he was just a prick in Shane's opinion.  Shaking his head Shane's eyes narrowed as he seen Romeo looking at the Hufflepuff table.  "Back of of Maura Zabini, I'm warning you!"said Shane with fire in his hazel eyes.

He wasn't going allow him to hurt his friends or do anything to them if he could help it.  Seeing Maura walking into the Great Hall and taking her normal seat Shane looked at her and smiled and waved at her before his eyes narrowed back at Romeo.  "You better watch it prick."Shane muttered to himself.  Shane wasn't in the mood for one of Romeo's scandals, he was trying to enjoy his weekend.  Besides, he didn't want to waste his time or energy on a prick like him.

Seeing his Romeo heading towards Maura's way his eyes narrowed at Romeo.  Taking a drink of his Pumpkin Juice Shane kept his eyes trained on Maura, but as he did the room started spinning around him.  Shaking his head, Shane's head started to hurt.  Seeing Romeo talking to Maura at the Hufflepuff table Shane gotten up from his head about to head to the Hufflepuff table.  Making his way to the table everything around him started getting blurry.

He didn't know for sure, but he had a feeling Romeo put something in her drink when she wasn't looking and he had to stop Maura before she drunk it. "Maura no, don't drink it!"Shane called after her as he seen her pick up her drink. Making his way to the Hufflepuff table his hazel eyes blazing with anger. "Don't drink it Maura, I think Romeo here put something in it."said Shane softly.

It was finally the weekend, something Maura was glad about seeing how she was having a bad week. Luckily she had great friends that were here for her no matter what. Sure Maura was alittle cranky at times, but they understood and they didn't turn there backs on her when she needed them. To be honest, she just missed Ryo being around her but he wrote to him every day but it wasn't the same without him. He knew how to keep her calm and would keep Romeo away from her.

If Ryo ever found out about Romeo, Maura was sure he'll kill the prick with his own bare hands. Maura wasn't for sure, but Ryo was very protective of her as well as the guys. Sighing to herself she headed towards the Great Hall as he seen Shane smile and wave at her, Maura smiled and waved back before she took her normal seat at the Hufflepuff table. Maura was so hungry, she was wiling to grab anything in front of her or she could get her hands on. Maura was starting to have a bump on her now, so she was starting to show now.

Seeing Romeo looking at her Maura's chocolate brom eyes narrowed at him. "I wonder what he wasnts now."Maura thought to herself. Ignoring him, Maura happily loaded her plate with chicken and mash potatoes before she looked up to see Romeo coming towards her. "If your here to flirt with me Zabini, your wasting your breath!"said Maura softly still loading her plate. "Like I said before, I'm not interested."said Maura annoyed.

Seeing Shane looking at her and her table Maura looked at Shane wondering what was wrong. As she was about to take a drink of her Pumpkin Juice he seen Shane call after her from a few feet from her. Seeing him walking towards her Shane looked from her Pumpkin juice to Romeo with anger in her eyes. Although the drink wasn't poisoned yet, Maura still didn't take a drink of it. Putting her drink down Maura looked at Shane Maura poured her drink out on the floor before getting her wand and vanishing it. "Nice try Zabini!"said Maura softly shaking her head at him.

Just as Romeo was about to acknowledge Maura she had already began on her assault. As if he would be here to flirt with her? Well, at some point he would be after he spiked her drink with the forgetfulness potion, unaware it was in fact already in Shane's goblet at the Gryffindor table.

Reaching over, ready to secretly pour the potion into her goblet Shane had appeared. How annoying. 'Why would I put anything in your drink?' Romeo acted dumbly as he watched Maura pour it away, hoping that the confused expression on his face would be enough to convince them it was a silly idea.

'I haven't even touched her goblet, Shane.' Romeo spat, before smiling at a nearby Hufflepuff who seemed to be mesmerised by him, nothing unusual there. 'I think you need to cool down and have a goblet of water.' Romeo retorted nodding towards the Gryffindor table.

Then, performing the same trick as before he leaned forward, his cuff hovering over Maura's now empty goblet whilst the potion silently trickled out of it's hidden vial. 'You can do better than Ryo. Trust me.' He whispered softly and gazing directly into her eyes to her fix attention on him as opposed to her goblet.

Leaning back he gave Shane one foul look before turning and heading to the Slytherin table to watch what would happen. If all went well Shane would sprout warts and Maura would forget Ryo's existence. If all went well. Little did Romeo know he'd mixed the potions up meaning their effects were already problematic. If Shane took the forgetfulness potion aimed specifically at Maura's memory there was a possibility he would forget, well, almost everything...

Shane narrowed his eyes at Romeo. "I don't think I quite believe you Romeo, you been trying to get back at us since your little accident!"Shane spat back at him. "Now your trying to be all friendly to Maura, yeah something up!"said Shane. Shane didn't know what it was, but he was going to find out.

Shane's eyes narrowed at Romeo and he let out a low growl as Romeo told him to go cool down at the Gryffindor table. "I think I have a right to be here, unless some Professor or prick thinks differently cause he's up to something!"Shane said smirking at him. Shane wasn't convince that Romeo wasn't there for nothing it was just to odd.

As Romeo walked off Shane looked at Maura one last time before he looked at Romeo and let out a low angry growl. "That prick better watch it!"Shane muttered to himself. Seeing that everything seem to be going well after Romeo left Shane looked at Maura. "Remember were all hanging out at the lake after we eat."said Shane winking at Maura before he headed back to the Gryffindor table.

Maura looked at Romeo with fire in her eyes. "The same reason Shane just said, you been trying to get back at us since Jamie stunned you!"said Maura. Seeing a hufflepuff giggle as Romeo smiled at her she rolled her eyes. "Really you like a prick like him?"Maura asked her shaking her head. Seeing a couple of girls smiling and waving at Shane she seen that he smiled back which made the girl blush. "Seem like not all the girls like you."said Maura smirking.

As Romeo hovered beside her Maura all the sudden had a disgusted look on her face. Looking at him with hate in her eyes her chocolate brown eyes looked into his. "I don't think I can, he's the best thing for me and there's no way I'll ever go out with a prick like you."Maura shot back at him. As she poured herself some more pumpkin juice into her goblet she took a drink of it.

As her head started to hurt and she started filling sick to her stomach and her body started feeling like it was on fire. As she looked into her goblet she dropped her goblet before she let out a scream that rang through the whole Great Hall. Maura was now covered in sprout of warts that covered her whole body.

Finally reaching the Gryffindor Table, Shane took a seat at his normal place glaring at Romeo at the Slytherin table. Shane was convinced that he had something up his sleeves but he didn't know what yet. Shane was going to find out what it was and stopped him before his plan went into action.

As Kenneth walked into the Great Hall and took a seat beside him Shane gave him a 'was up' look before Kenneth sat down. "Beware mate, I think Romeo is up to something so watch out."said Shane softly. Looking from Ravenclaw table to Hufflepuff table he was waiting for something to happen.

Taking a drink of his water, to calm his nerves Shane's head all the sudden hurting and the room begin spinning. "Ugh... I don't feel so good."Shane muttered holding his head. As he heard a familiar scream that rung across the Great Hall Shane looked at Maura with horror on his face. "Maura!"Shane cried as he stood up about to head to the Hufflepuff table as his vision started to get worse where he could almost see nothing. The last thing he heard was Maura's screams before he passed out on the floor.

((Sorry RJ if we posted ahead, we wanted to get those posted out of the way!))

As her scream rang through the whole Great Hall she blushed before putting her hood up. Seeing Shane take a drink of his goblet her eyes widened in horror as she seen him pass out on the floor. "SHANE!" Maura screamed not caring if the Great Hall heard her again. Rushing over towards the Gryffindor table Maura seen that Shane was knocked out cold.

Kneeling beside him Maura looked at him with worry in her eyes. "Shane... Shane, please answer me or do something!"Maura called softly to him. Looking across the room from Ravencalw table where Jamie and Oliva sat to the Hufflepuff table where Jaybee and Carson sat Maura gave them a worried look. "Kenneth he's not waking up, something is wrong!"said Maura softly.

As Romeo took his seat at the Slytherin table the sound of a ear-splitting scream rang around his eyes. Shane really did scream like a girl didn't, oh well, that'd embarrass him even more. Or so Romeo thought before he raised his head to see a familiar seventh year Hufflepuff running across the hall covered in warts. 

Well, he certainly wouldn't be going near her now and if she remained like that neither would Ryo if he had any standards. If Maura had taken the wart-sprouting potion that meant Shane had taken the forgetfulness potion, deadly seeing as it was designed for him to forget something he never had. 

Slowly raising his own goblet Romeo took a nervous sip. Shane was out cold. He had never intended, what if the potion permanently affected his memory? Romeo wasn't that cruel, sure he was sly and determined but to induce long term dementia wasn't something he had intended. 

Not leaving his spot to make sure he could see what was going on he took a slab of cottage pie and began to dig in, feigning a snicker with his fellow Slytherin's that were pointing and laughing at Maura's warts - much like the rest of the hall was doing.

Even though he'd gotten the potions mixed up he'd done something right. He'd embarrassed Maura. 

(OOC: that's fine Romeo would only have watched anyway.)
