Diagon Alley Ski

Chatterbox: Pudding's Place

Diagon Alley Ski

Diagon Alley Ski Lodge

Flopping down on your couch, you begin rereading the Harry Potter books for the gazillionth time. Just as Harry’s finally going to Hogwarts, you’re interrupted by your parents calling you to dinner. You set down the book with an annoyed sigh, deciding to keep reading after dinner.
Returning to the book, you notice a strange lump between the pages. You excitedly flip through to find what seems to be your Hogwarts letter! Opening it up, you read the following, written in familiar loopy handwriting: 

Dearest CBer,
This is not your Hogwarts letter.
Sorry.
It is, however, an invitation to the most marvelous experience you could ever dream of: a month’s stay in none other than the Leaky Cauldron, for 15 people only (not including companions). All supplies will be provided, and yes, the popcorn is free. Just fill out the attached forms before the slots are all taken. We await your owl!

Day One, Part One:
Catsclaw sat on his front step, anxiously fidgeting. He gazed off down the street. When would the transportation come? Suddenly, he heard a tremendous BANG! A triple-decker purple bus flew down the road and careened toward him. It screeched to a halt, and a gangly young man stepped out. “Welcome to the Knight Bus, emergency transport for the stranded witch or wizard. Just stick out your wand hand, step on board, and we-”
“I know, I know, I’ve read the speech plenty of times,” Catsclaw grumbled. “Er, how long is the journey to Diagon Alley?”
“Another one for Diagon Alley! Ten hours, at the current rate, just…”
Ignoring Stan Shunpike, Catsclaw climbed the steps and stepped into the vast interior. Inside, his fellow CBers, as well as a motley crew of AEs and CAPTCHAs, waved and shouted greetings. Kitten smiled and pointed to an available seat next to her. Agreeably, Catsclaw made his way down the aisle and plopped down in the empty spot.
“Hey there, fren!” Ella Starburst smiled cheerfully from the seat in front. Ella’s AEs, Zeke and Andrea, waved before going back to their conversation. Catsclaw smiled, picked up a book, and settled in for the ride.
Just as he finished his book, the bus ground to a halt and Leafpool boarded. She sat down in the seat behind him, pulled out a pack of bubblegum and a novel, and began reading.
“Attention please. Your attention, please!” Stan Shunpike screamed into a microphone at the front of the bus. The microphone squealed with feedback, and several Chatterboxers winced. “Dinner is being served!” the conductor shouted. Sure enough, employees with trays were roaming around the aisles, handing them out. Around him, several CBers jumped up to help pass dinner around, including Ella Starburst and her AEs, Kitten, Leafpool, and Gracia.  Catsclaw eagerly received his tray and promptly devoured the food on it. He pulled out another book, feeling better now that he had eaten. Actually, he felt kind of queasy. The contents of his stomach tossed and turned, and suddenly, he vomited. Must have been the bad driving, he thought dizzily.
A Knight Bus employee passed him a flagon of butterbeer. 
“Carsick?” He nodded. “Maybe that will help your stomach,” she suggested, walking away.
Catsclaw sipped the butterbeer. It tasted delicious, and he began to feel a bit better. Deciding to take a short nap, he reclined his seat and went to sleep.
Meanwhile, the poison from his dinner was spilling into his veins. After about an hour, it reached his heart, which promptly thudded to a stop.
--
The CBers, AEs, and CAPTCHAs piled out of the cramped bus, eager to stretch their legs but still somber after Catsclaw’s unfortunate demise. Blinking in the bright sun, it took them all a few moments to recognize the bearded man in front of them: Dumbledore.
“Ah, are these my worthy young adventurers? Come along now, here we are!”
“Er, Professor Dumbledore, sir?” said Darkking tentatively.
“Yes?”
“Catsclaw died. On the bus.”
Dumbledore raised his eyebrows and turned as if to fetch the body, only to see that the Knight Bus had pulled away while the crowd had been ogling Dumbledore.
“Oh, what a shame! Nothing to be done now, though. Come now, follow me.”
The crowd slowly followed the old man into the Leaky Cauldron, still a bit upset about the “shame” of an unexpected death. Upon entering the dark, smoky room, a figure loomed in front of them. The immediate barrage of sound was a few screams (from Gracia and Soren) and some insults featuring his nose and the word “Voldy” (Leafpool, Darkking, Spiffycat, and Harry). Immediately following this barrage was a crowd running away (NatureWriter, Ella Starburst, Kitten, and Summer). Claaws pelted him with questions, Leo stood speechless, and Kat drew her lightsaber. The AEs reacted little, being for the most part more used to surprises, and the CAPTCHAs were very confused about the kerfuffle, having for the most part no experience with Harry Potter and therefore not knowing who Voldemort was.
Voldemort’s wand was in his hand immediately, ready to curse the CBers for their insolence, but he was stopped from raising it by Dumbledore’s hand on his shoulder.
“Tom, part of the deal was that you don’t threaten the guests.”
“And part of it was that you don’t call me Tom!”
“Voldemort, then. Please lower your wand. You’re scaring them.”
“That’s the point,” Voldy growled, but he slipped the wand back in his pocket anyway.
“Now, Claaws, Leo, can you two go fetch the CBers that fled? Though you might not think it, we did have a plan for today.”
--
As you may have guessed by the surprise appearance of Voldemort, there are actually two organizers of this ski lodge: Dumbledore and Voldemort. You are welcome to guess either or both of us!
Dead: Catsclaw
Suspects: None

Ooh, the first part? I like it! Especially the bit about Dumbledore calling Voldy Tom: that's very funny!

So I have to wonder... am I the murderer? I did have access to the food... so it might be me... that's a disturbing thought.

We can guess you? Well, I don't know about the second of you, but might one of you be Rogue Wildling?

Aw, sorry about that, Catsclaw, that kinda-

Trust nobody. Not even yourself.

What?

*Picks up gun* LEFT AND RIGHT SIDES OF MY BRAIN, DID YOU KILL CATSCLAW!

WE DON'T KNOW!

*For all we, know, YOU could have done it. YOU served food too.
