Chapter 4
She was beyond pissed. She quietly made her way down and abandoned corridor. As a cat she could stomp as loudly as she pleased without any one noticing her. You would think a purple cat would get raise some eyebrows, but in the wizarding world it was just a mistake. Screw them, she thinks to her self. She had hoped that going to a magic school would be better then any other school she's gone to. And shes been through many. The teachers always got angry when she would change colours. Students would always avoid her. She wasn't sure exactly why, maybe she was just to weird for them.
Every thing started so well. She had friends! And they thought her transfiguration was cool. The food was fantastic. The other gryffindors were great. But then there was Peridot. The slytherin always insisted on sitting next to her in any shared class. By it self would not be so bad if she didn't always have a remark on every thing. Absolutely every thing. Yeah she though Amethyst shape shifting was cool, what wasn't cool was calling it a 'defect'. And where did she of all people get off calling her a runt. And that damn smug smile.
Day after day it was getting on her nerves! She slunk into an empty classroom and hopped onto the professors desk. She looked around at all junk cluttering the work space. Novelty clocks a drinking bird and many other muggle items cluttered the space. A mischievous glint entered her eyes when saw the glass of water sitting near one of the corners. So she did what any good cat would have, and pushed it off the ledge. the glass fell without even cracking. Unbreakable glasses really took the fun out of being a cat. She hopped up to one of the castles windows and laid her self down for a nap.
She groggily woke to the sound of heavy breathing and shuffling shoes. She lazily looked over to see a familiar face. She was a hufflepuff friend of Garnet. She spent a lot of time in the gryffindor common room. Always holding on to Garnet as they studied or just talked. Right now she was muttering quietly under her breath but it was impossible to make out what she was saying over the heavy breathing.
Amethyst racked her brain trying to come up with a name for her. She was pale but that may be because of her frantic state, it made her freckles stick out like a stars in the night sky. Maybe she had one of those silly wizard names that describe what your skilled at. She combed long fingers through her red hair as she took a deep breath. Maybe she's named after a star. Amethyst was startled when the girl tugged at her hair violently and released a strangled noises that sounded a lot like she said stupid. The girl backed herself into a corner behind the teachers desk and slumped down to sit on the floor.
The girl curled up into her self. they sat like that for who knows how long. Not that the girl knew about her audience. To Amethyst it felt like time had stop. She entertained the idea of leaving to give the girl privacy. When the girl's, who's names she should really know by know, breathing evened out Amethyst slowly walked over.
"Meow"
The girls slowly lifted her head out of her crossed arms and looked for the source of the noise. She spotted the cat quickly, slowly reaching out her hand. Her eyes were blue. Like really blue. Amethyst thought purple was her favourite colour but this girls eyes are just the pretties colour. The cat sniffed at the hand offered to her then butting her head to it. The girl slowly relaxed allowing the cat to get closer. Amethyst climbed into her lap without a thought. The girl wrapped her in a warm hug and buried her face in her fur, taking comfort in the texture and smell. Amethyst found herself at piece. The small annoyance of some class mates didn't seem so bad now. Amethyst purred as long fingers scratched behind her ears. This was fine for now.
