A/n: sorry about the long long wait, I lost my Lilo and Stitch flow again, and if I don't have the Lilo and Stitch flow it wouldn't feel right... of course it probably doesn't regardless but I feel like I have it as close as I can get it. And I'm sorry that this Chapter is so short, but it has to have the space from the next bit.

Lilo the witch

Chapter 7

As Ordered

Lilo flicked the page 'This is really tough stuff.' She said she looked to Stitch who was trying to pry the door open, Lilo shook her head, she was glad that she'd read that book of spells that McRay had handed out for them to read, making the room secure by magic was sure to make it Stitch proof as well as people proof.

She turned back to the first chapter 'The correct way to teach your pet right from wrong.' She looked at him 'Focus on not punishing bad behaviour, but rewarding good behaviour.' Stitch looked to her cocking his head 'Stitch? How're you feeling?' she asked, he seemed to be a whole lot calmer now 'Has the coffee worn off yet?'

He watched her silently.

'I guess not then, oh well.' Lilo sat down on the floor and continued to read the first chapter memorising the essentials of training a pet. 'How would you teach any of this to a reptile? They don't do tricks... hmm; I suppose training a lizard would be loosely based on the basics.' Lilo thought for a moment 'Why would anyone in the magical world have a pet lizard?'

'Slytherin's.'

Lilo looked to Stitch, the coffee was wearing off 'Yeah I suppose you're right, Stitch, it's just like them tohave pet snakes.'

Stitch nodded.

'Who was it Stitch?' Lilo asked after a long moment, he cocked his head 'Who was it that gave you the coffee?'

'House-elf...' Stitch paused as he thought for a moment remembering the name that had been said. 'Named Leasy.'

'One of the House-elves?'

Stitch nodded 'Leasy told to give Stitch coffee.'

'Told to?' Lilo repeated.

Stitch nodded.

Lilo thought for a long moment 'Some Slytherin's idea of a joke.' She said repeating what one of the Gryffindor's had said 'I'll bet you a dollar that it was Mandy who told the house-elf to give you coffee.'

Stitch nodded in agreement.

'Alright!' Lilo said standing 'Now it's personal!'

Stitch shook his head 'Lilo no fight!'

'No Stitch! I'm sick of this! I'm going to show her who's boss!' Lilo pulled out her wand and flicked it at the door 'You coming?' she asked him.

Stitch nodded and followed Lilo out of the room.

'Stitch!' Lilo said shaking him 'Get up!'

'Naga.' He said burrowing deeper into the doggy bed on the floor.

'Did he just talk?' Lilo and Stitch looked around to the door where Hayleigh stood staring at them.

Lilo nodded. 'Yes.' She said looking at Stitch deciding to try and make this a new development instead of an elaborate explanation. 'He started talking after he drank that "Strengthening" potion.' She lied.

'Really?' Hayleigh asked in surprise. 'But that was ages ago, shouldn't it have worn off.'

'With the way Mandy makes potions I think this could be permanent.'

'I don't think I've heard of an animal speaking English before... people speaking animal tongues yes, but not the other way round.'

'I guess it's possible.' Lilo said. 'I mean how much is impossible with magic?' She added looking at Hayleigh.

'Not much.' Hayleigh agreed. 'Minus raising the dead.'

'There are spells to raise the dead.' Lilo said bluntly.

'Not bringing the soul back from the dead...'

Lilo shrugged. 'I don't know about that one.'

'Why do you know about Inferi, at all?' Hayleigh asked.

'I read about them in McRae's book.' Lilo replied calmly.

'What? All of it?' Hayleigh asked in surprise.

Lilo nodded. 'Yes, it's not like I had much else to do once my homework was done.'

'But it's massive!'

'Not really... It's only something like 600 pages.'

'Lilo...' Hayleigh said after a long moment.

'Yes?'

'You need to get a hobby.' Hayleigh concluded.

'I haven't got time for one now, I have to train Stitch to be good... Dumbledore's orders.' She turned back to Stitch. 'Which is what I was waking him up for in the first place.' She said sternly. 'Come on Stitch, it's Day One of the Magical Doggy Training routine.'

Stitch was clearly less than enthused by the thought of having to do doggy training but hopped off of the bed and followed Lilo out into the grounds regardless.

'Let's look at it this way, Stitch.' Lilo said quietly to him. 'At least now you can talk around people.'

He nodded.

'Anyway... I think I've come up with the perfect revenge.' She reached into her pocket. 'What do you think?' She asked passing him a folded piece of parchment.

He took it from her and unfolded it, looking at it for a long moment, he looked at her, a moment of doubt on his face. 'Lilo get ingredients?'

'I'm going to send a copy of this to Jumba and ask him to get the ingredients for me from the cousins, that way he can send them back with the owl.'

Stitch nodded somewhat concerned. 'Lilo knows what she's doing?' He asked holding the parchment out.

'I do alright.' Lilo said strongly taking the parchment back. 'Do you think they would mind?'

Stitch thought for a moment, would his cousins mind giving a sample of their "weapons" to help Lilo get even? Probably not, once they were told what Mandy had been doing to try and upset Lilo they would want to help in anyway they could... but would Jumba agree with this method of revenge? Probably, since Lilo was about to give him an interesting idea that he'd probably think long and hard about giving to a new genetic experiment.

Response to some anonymous reviews:

Person-without-a-FF.N-account: It's hard to come up with proper Stitch language words, but I think I can add a few more, with lots of Stitch watching.

Linday: I know that a few HBP characters are missing and I made McRay up myself, but the ones that are missing I didn't overly like so off they went and I put in replacements, the rest of the HP cast are floating around, but they're following their own little stories (minus Slughorn, who hasn't got much on McRay in the epic part of the story, (it all fits, trust me.) As for Voldemort, well you'll have to stay tuned to see what happens.
