Prompt: When owls take over the school, who will save the day? Must involve a duck named Puddles.
Word count: 156
Rating: G

"Owls," Draco said glumly. "It had to be owls."

"You're the one always carping about how the Boy Who Lived gets to do everything," Pansy snapped, brushing feathers out of her hair. "Now's the chance to fix the mess some idiot made of Hogwarts."

"Well, this isn't very dignified!" Draco's outraged gesture took in the entire Great Hall, which looked now more like a glorified owl roost. "Where are Crabbe and Goyle? I want them to do it for me."

Pansy rolled her eyes. "Goyle eloped with Longbottom, you remember. Something about Trevor the Toad and Puddles the Duck."

"What, bestiality?"

"Don't ask me to explain it."

"And Crabbe?"

"Detention with McGonagall."

Bloody Gryffindors, always foiling his brilliant plans. Nonetheless, Draco simply had to step up and save Hogwarts. He was better than Harry Potter any day of the week. He squared his shoulders.

"Shoo!" he shouted to no effect, waving his arms at the owls.

Hee hee! Poor ineffectual Draco. And bossy Pansy! That's so cute. I like how you worked in the duck.

Agreed - that line pretty much makes the whole thing for me.

Draco: "I'm better than Harry Potter any day of the week."
Universe: "Um... no."

*dies at the Indiana Jones reference*

It's a dream right? That boy is messed up.

Brilliant!
