The Guardian

Chapter 50

Lana's PoV

"Okay, so basically, Harry got a broom, Hermione is mad at the broom because she thinks that it's evil. And Hermione's cat tried to eat Ron's Rat, so Ron is mad at Hermione?" I asked.

"Sure?" Harry said uncertainly.

"Presents!" I sang and gave them all presents.

They gave me my presents, and we opened them, yay... I am VERY SUPER DUPER bored right now. I really want to go outside and run, and let out all my energy, but I'm cooped up in here. I started to twiddle my thumbs, but that got boring, so I was bobbing my head up and down to unheard music. But then that got boring, and my legs bounced up and down. AHHHH I'M GONNA DIE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! COOPED UP IN THIS TOWER!!!! RAPUNZEL RAPUNZEL LET DOWN YOUR HAIR!!!!!!

AHHHHHHH BUT LANA I CUT OFF MY HAIR!!!!!!

OH NO!!!! I DID TOO!!!

WE'RE STUCK HERE LANA!!!!

I KNOW RAPUNZEL!!!! I KNOWW!!!!

"Lana? Are you okay?" Hermione's voice broke into my thoughts.

"Kermit, I need coffee," I said.

"Won't that make you even, MORE energetic?" Hermione asked me.

"I need caffeine," I repeated, "Or I'm going to go on a Rampage."

"Fred, could you go get Lana some Caffeine?" Hermione asked the red head, "She's gonna go on a rampage,"

He nodded and he and his doppleganger walked out of the Common Room.

"Lana, I really think that you don't need any caffeine," Hermione said nervously.

"Well Kermit," I began, "Dopamine levels in the brain have to be within a very narrow margin in order for a person to be able to focus on their work. But in ADHD, dopamine levels are too low. Stimulant chemicals such as caffeine or amphetamines tend to increase dopamine levels. For most people, adding stimulants will push dopamine levels too high, causing agitation and anxiety. But for people with ADHD, adding stimulants can get the levels just right. A few cups of coffee throughout the day can make a real difference. AHHH ATHENA GET OUT OF MY HEAD!!!!!"

Well, someone needed to inform them, you know that you really need to get SOME sleep. No sleep, plus an Demigod equals trouble.

"Lana, are you okay?" Hermione asked me cautiously.

"I didn't get much sleep last night," I admitted sheepishly.

"Here milady," Fred said appearing out of no where with some blue coke.

"Thanks Fredrick," I said and sipped at the drink, starting to calm down, a little anyway.

"Thanks Fred," Hermione said gratefully.

"Oi! What about me!" George protested.

"Thanks Georgina!" I said.

"Thank you George," Hermione said.

"I think I'm gonna take a nap," I said yawning.

"How? Why? Fine," Hermione sighed, "We'll bring up some food from Lunch,"

"Okie Dokie, thanks Kermit! Bye guys!" I said and ran up to my dorm before slipping into a deep sleep.

Thank the GODS that someone decided to take pity on me and didn't torture me in my dreams. I just had a blank, regular, dream. When I woke up, it was already morning. Aww, I missed dinner? When I sat up from bed, Hermione was looking very upset.

"Kermit? Are you okay?" I asked.

"I told Professor McGonagall about Harry's Broom, and she confiscated it, and now they're mad at me!" She burst out, looking quite upset, "And I was only trying to protect them! It could've been sent to him by Sirius Black!"
