Street Games/The Queen/Angels
Title: Street Games
House: Slytherin
Word Count: 100
Challenge: Games
Characters: Harry, OC
A/N: A few years after Hogwarts and the war
Harry leaned against the building, bored. His ripped jeans were skin tight and he was wearing a mesh shirt that matched his eyes. Beside him, Andrew was wearing a similar outfit.
A man turned the corner towards them and Harry tried to gauge him. The muggle police liked to rough up the boys who worked the streets, but Harry and Andrew were pros at playing them. Easier than his old game with Malfoy.
This one really could go either way, so they avoided eye contact with him. He passed, and Harry saw the glint of a badge.
Another round won.
Title: The Queen
House: Slytherin
Word Count: 100
Challenge: Games
Characters: Harry, Ron, mentions of Snarry
Ron contemplated the chess board before him. Harry had finally improved.
Most people chase the King, because mating him wins. Very few realize how much power the queen has. Every other piece moves because of where she was and where she needed to be.
Harry had learned that lesson at last; Ron was about to lose his Queen. And unless Harry slipped up, he had mate in four.
Ron looked up and was caught by the loss in Harry’s eyes. Harry had learned the value of the Queen when he lost Severus.
Ron wished Harry could still lose at chess.
Title: Angels
House: Slytherin
Word Count: 100
Challenge: Games
Characters: Ginny, Charlie, Weasley family,
A/N: A few years before Ginny starts Hogwarts
Ginny smirked as her mother’s shouts rang through the Burrow. Ron was in trouble again, for pulling all the linens out of the closet.
Fred and George were in trouble too, for hexing Percy yellow.
Ginny slipped her door shut and put Charlie’s old wand and spell book back under her mattress.
Charlie taught her everything she knew about surviving in the Burrow. How to beat the twins at their own games, how to play their siblings against each other, and how to avoid getting caught.
Charlie and Ginny were the good ones. Mommy’s little angels. Their siblings knew differently.
