Author's notes: This started about 3 years ago, and I am sad to say that I have lost all my notes on it and have practically forgotten it existed. Therefore, it will not be changed into something totally different. Sadly, I will not be updating it in a while, probably, since my Never Again story has taken over my body and soul for now. I look forward to finishing it, so that I could work on this one.

Chapter 1: Prologue

"Are you sure this is a good idea?" The whisper echoed in the silence of the Forbidden Forest.

"It's his own fault. He refused to help us and we got caught. He has to pay!" The words breathed on his skin made electricity shoot down his spine and other parts.

"Here comes our prey," came the whisper again, and a blond head turned in the direction of the castle. There was somebody moving towards the edge of the lake, just like they had planned. It was easy to recognize the person after spending so much time in six years bullying him. Sometimes guilt tried to rear its ugly head, but the next moment would bring some new conflict and the guilt would disappear as the ideas for pranks came flowing in.

Another figure was also approaching, traversing carelessly and almost tripping on the way down. The blond boy could feel his companion behind him picking up his wand and the traces of magic that came with casting a spell. The spell was thrown towards the boy by the lake. Of all of the pranks they had ever played, none of them were like this. They had almost killed this boy the year before, but tonight's prank was on a completely different level. Tonight they were setting up one of their own.
