Karida smiled as she looked down at the first year, Amanda. Karida had long red hair that fell in curls to the middle of her back. Her blue eyes shined with mischief as Fred and George stood around her.
"It really is true," George agreed nodding his head.
"Yeah, Turtleback is the fifth house. Only the special students get into that house. It's the one where all of the greatest jokesters go to. We belong to it as does Kari here. Actually Kari was the one who talked Dumbledore into making it, thus becoming its founder. Now we heard a rumor that you were a good joker. If you want we could put in a good word with Dumbledore."
Amanda nodded her head quickly, letting her hair bounce around her face. "That would be great! I'd love to be in a house just for the jokers of the school!"
Kari turned as there was a sigh behind her. She smiled at the Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher. "Hello, Professor Lupin."
"Ms. Kaklamanis, are you terrorizing the first years again? And are the Weasley twins joining you?"
"Of course not," Kari said shrugging. "Hikaru, Kaoru, and I were just talking to Amanda here. Discussing school rules and ethics."
"You and ethics?" Lupin asked looking disbelievingly at her. "I don't see that happening anytime soon." He looked back at Amanda and shook his head again. "And leave the first years alone."
Kari held up her hand in a mock salute. "Yes sir."
He shook his head and turned away from her.
"Wild thing," Kari began singing as the twins making the music for the song. "You make my heart sing. You make everything…."
Lupin smiled as he turned the corner and continued walking. Kari turned back to the twins and held up her hand.
"Okay, boys, well I have to go now and find my friend. Bye Hikaru, Kaoru."
Fred and George look at each other as she walked off. "Why does she call us that?"
George shrugged and the two wandered off to find some more mischief.
