SHAMED SCHOOL IN SLEAZY SAME-SEX SCANDAL!
Hogwarts school of witchcraft and wizardry has become a hotbed of sex, Witch Weekly can exclusively reveal.
“Students at Hogwarts are encouraged to use their wands to further their magic skills,” a high member of the wizarding council told us. “But the boys just seem to be using them for other things lately. And lets just say they look like they are enjoying using them… a lot!”
If that outrageous claim wasn’t enough, the story develops a further twist when another reliable source tells us that the male students at Hogwarts are not the only ones engaging in sexual antics.
“The teachers are all at it too, even more than the students,” an eyewitness reveals in a hushed voice. “And sometimes the teachers and students even go with each other.” When asked if the teachers might be taking advantage and abusing their position of power, the source replied, “most definitely. They seem to get off on the position they have over the students and take delight in abusing their privileges.”
Witch Weekly then asked the source why they think that all this shocking behaviour is happening, at which point they fell silent. When probing them further, they finally muttered, “I don’t know. I can’t honestly say.”
OR CAN THEY?
It seems that these lurid activities started five weeks ago, just ten weeks after the new term at Hogwarts started. Up until those ten weeks, the school ran in its normal, albeit uncomfortable manner. So what changed?
“There was a certain sense of something had happened at the start of the eleventh week back at term,” a brave third year boy whispered to us a mere four days ago. “It was like something had taken over the school, something we couldn‘t control.” Mysteriously, the boy had vanished from the school grounds when we tried to contact him for a follow up interview.
“From the way they are on their knees all their time you’d think they were praying,” another source smirked, “and the cries of “Oh Merlin, OH MERLIN!” don’t help matters either.”
NO GIRLS ALLOWED?
It seems that this newly enjoyed activity is a ‘male only’ club in which the female students are not invited to.
“While the boys are discovering new uses for their wands, the girls are only using theirs for their intended purpose”, another source revealed to us. “This is exclusively a male only club. And it seems the female students have no idea what outrageousness is taking place right under their noses. When we asked a girl in her second year to tell us about the scandal, she looked nonplussed.
“Why do you insist on reading that trash?” said Harry, peering over Draco’s shoulder and looking at the article in disgust.
“It’s not trash,” sniffed Draco contemptuously. “Witch Weekly, I’ll have you know, is a highly enjoyable read.”
“I doubt it,” replied Harry shortly.
"It's considered a very respectable piece of journalism."
"I doubt it," Harry repeated. Draco didn’t reply this time and instead handed Harry the magazine for him to read.
Harry scanned over the article quickly, folded the magazine in half and tucked it under his arm, before making his way out of the library.
“Hey, give it back!” Draco called after him. “Harry, where are you going with my magazine?”
Harry turned to Draco and grinned. “They have exclusive photos on the next page! Care to join me in the nearest bathroom?”
