"So, is it true?" a third year Ravenclaw asked from behind her. "Do you really conspire with vampires?"
"Yeah, and why didn't you get there in time to save people?" asked a Hufflepuff.
"You know the article is right, it is really fishy… what do you have to say to that Hellsing" sneered a Slytherin.
Integra slowly turned around, a gleefully insane smiled on her face. While she raged a small group of students from all the houses had formed to question her.
Seeing the look on her face, Ron back up and waved his hands, "Oh bloody hell, I think she's gone loonie!"
"Let me make this very clear," Integra stated clearly, loud enough for the entire great hall to hear, "This paper is nothing more than scandalous lies. Hellsing does not make deals with the dangerous monsters that we are tasked with dealing with. If a magical being, be it magician or monster, becomes a threat to the sovereign, the church, or the people of our great nation, our standing orders are very clear."
"Search and destroy!!" Integra roared as she slammed her fist on the table, "Search and destroy!"
One of the Gryffindors blinked, "But what about that 'minor muggle matter'?"
Integra forced down her rage and replied, "Two hospitals were attacked, not one. That 'minor muggle matter' was a another vampire attack."
One of the older students scoffed, "I hear it was hours before you dealt with it. Why so slow?"
She scoffed, "I'd ask the same about the Aurors! Only be in one place at once! Bah! What's so important that they would let so many people die! Besides, Hellsing responds the moment we get a report!" She threw her arms up in the air in exasperation, "You have no idea how many times that bloody klaxon has woken me up in the middle of the night! If we were slow it was because no one told us until after the fact! I've hear my father complain dozens of times about the Ministry's constant attempts to stone wall our activities! If you truly believe anything that this article says…"
Integra stood up and pointed to Professor Snape, who recoiled in some surprise at being singled out.
"Yes, Miss Hellsing?" he asked coolly.
"If anyone believes that this article is in any way accurate, then you are correct Profressor."
"In what way?" He asked, his interest becoming honestly peeked.
She opened her arms in exasperation, signaling the entire student body.
"They are nothing more than a big bunch of dunderheads!"
The entire hall exploded into a roar as they realized Integra had just insulted them all.
Ignoring them all, and with that said, Integra stood up and snatched the article off of the table and began to head for the Hogwarts owlery. He father needed to know about this insipid article, and that rumor mongering whore, who wrote it, a Miss Rita Skeeter would get quite the 'talking to'. Behind her, her friends scrambled off to make sure she did not do anything too crazy. If they'd learned one thing since she arrives, it was Integra had a dangerous temper.
And in the center of the room, Severus Snape almost fell out of chair in laughter. Gasping for breath and between laughs he managed to wheeze out. "Three points to Gryffindor!"
Dumbledore smiled widely with a twinkle in his eyes as the student and her friends left.
"Make that eight. Five for standing up for herself in front of the entire school." He glanced at the potions teacher and remarked, "And three from Professor Snape… for making him laugh harder then he has in twenty years, I suppose."
