Meeting with an old 'enemy'

[Alexandra Johansen]

Alexandra sat with her feet in the water, looking at her reflection. It was a breezy, spring afternoon and she had skipped one of her classes, to ensure privacy, for once. She had herself leaned forward into the water, so she could see her whole head, shoulders and all. Alex was constantly challenging her limitations as a metamorphmagus, she had mastered hair colour, length and eye colour, but now she was working on actually changing her physical features. Her nose was currently the size of her hand, and was reaching out about an inch and a half. It was completely exaggerated, but she was curious and wanted to know herself better. Her reflection was quite ugly, for the pretty girl she was, and she almost had to turn away in disgust.

 

[Isabella Chaos]

Isabella had been out on the Quidditch field by herself once more as she trained and practice more than ever. Last year she had practiced a lot, but this year she had definitely stepped it up because she needed to prove herself as a Captain and make Slytherin look good after their unfortunate losing streak last year. Because she had been flying as usual, she found herself wearing more jeans than she liked to, but she couldn't be flying around in a skirt, so today she was wearing a white tank top and grey jeans as she finally finished her solo training session and went to the lake to cool down and relax.

The Slytherin girl walked over with her broom in hand and placed it on the floor nearby a tree. She took a few steps closer to the lake as she began tying her brunette hair back in a messy ponytail and noticed someone leaning over in the lake to stare at their reflection. As Isabella approached she noticed it was Alexandra Johansen, a girl she had written about in the Gossip Magazine and thus knew of her metamorphmagus status. "Well if it isn't the Grim Reaper herself," she said aloud as she approached her, referring the the way she had found out about her ability. As she got closer she realized that she had been transforming her nose into something hideous. "Oh, so that's what you really look like," she said with a disgusted look on her face.

 

[Alexandra Johansen]

Startled, Alexandra jumped up, changing her nose back to normal. She didn't have to turn around to know who had approached her. "Isabella Chaos." She mumbled, as she rose, to face her rival; only the year before, Isabella had caught Alexandra the one time she wanted to pull a prank, and then 'magically' the whole school found out that she was a 'grim'. Lucky for her, nobody clued in on her secret.

"Yes; It is I, the Grim Reaper." Alex responded cooly. She quickly studied Isabella's facial features, and mimicked them perfectly; from the high set cheek bones, to the dark brown hair and almond eyes. "Hmm, I wonder what you really look like under that pile of...make up?" She retorted, as she surprised herself by allowing her anger to create a few large, hairy moles, and bumpy red pimples all over her, Isabella's, face. "Like looking in a mirror, isn't it?" She gave a fake grin, and cocked her head sideways.
