THE GAME

Harry was walking down Privet Drive heading to the park just a little ways down. it was getting dark, but there was still light with the last fading rays of sunshine. He could hear a mother calling her children in for supper, but still he kept walking. When he got to the park he looks around. The park was really run down now that Dudley's gang has started coming there. It looked like Harry was looking for someone and still couldn't find them. He see's a girl off by the broken swings so he walks up to her. She had dark curly brown hair that comes up to the mild of her back clothes that hung from her small frame. she looked about eight when she was actually about thirteen.

"Alizabith you should get going home you know."

the girl looks up at him with one bright blue eye and the other a deep emerald, looking wide-eyed at him. "you should talk Harry you should get going home too, and I'm of being home."

"its only a few more days until the order comes picks us up from the Dursleys. And uncle Vernon is looking for you."

Alizabith started to pout, puffing out her bottom lip. "I don't want to go back home. its nicer in the park, well, kind of anyways, I'll just get in trouble for painting our room door black."

Harry started to giggle "yeah I could see where you wouldn't want to go home, but do really you want them sending Dudley out to find us."

"No not really guess you got a point there."

Alizabith finally got up off the ground and started walking ahead of them. While they were walking home the sky was now a smoky gray and Alizabith stopped to talk to all the animals and flowers she could see. It was a ritual she had started. She knew the flowers wouldn't talk back but she thought if you talked to the plants a little they might grow better.

They finally make it home, and the first thing they heard when they enter the house is aunt Petunias loud shrieking voice. "where are those brats? I told the boy to go get her, and come back, and not to dally."

"were right here aunt Petunia." they both said as one. The next thing they saw was a purple face uncle Vernon rounding the corner.

"Where the bloody hell were you two? We sent you out awhile ago. You should have been back quicker than that. Go to your room and you can stay there all night with out dinner! That should teach you to keep us waiting."

Alizabith and Harry started to walk up the stairs quickly with uncle Vernon following right behind them. after getting into their room they hear the dead bolt click shut signaling they are locked into the room.

"Harry do you still have some pastries left from Mrs. Weasley?"

Harry's birthday was just last week so they had a few pastries and candies as gifts from his friends, Harry goes to the loose floor board in the middle of the room and pulls it open to look in. "yeah we got a few here." he hands her a cauldron cake while taking one for himself.

"good thing your friends sends pastries and candy or we would basically starve to death here. what did you make them for dinner?" Alizabith asked.

"um I made them some roast beef, fresh green beans, and mashed potatoes, and I think its good too." Harry said

"want to play a game while we wait for them to fall asleep?" Alizabith asked.

"sure what do you want to play and don't say color on the wall because were running out of room on the wall." Harry answered while looking at the walls. the walls were full of color crayon marks.

"Okie dokie so we make all these ridiculous things that we would do to either Snape or Malfoy just for fun like to drive them nuts and write them down and see who has a better idea to drive them mad OK?" Alizabith stated. She went to the desk by the window and opened the drawer she pulled out tons of binder paper and a few pens and pencils. "Are you ready?" Alizabith asked

"yeah just give me a second." Harry responded.

Once the paper and pens were evenly distributed they started writing, nothing could be heard in the room except the sound of pen writing on paper and pages moving against pages. "Harry what do you got so far?" She asked after an hour of non-stopping writing.

"let me see, for Malfoy I put change all his clothes to pink and make it so he cant see it but everyone else can."

"ohhhhh that sounds like a really good idea I might try that." she stated. "Lizzy you aren't suppose to do anything to rash this year." Harry said while raising his eye brow.

"I know, but it sounded soooooooo cool that I gotsta try it out, and besides it's not like he can say that it was me the twins are the biggest pranksters at school."

"You got a point there, and gotsta is not a word you just made that up. What did you put?" he asked.

Alizabith goes to the rickety bookshelf in the corner of the room and pulls out a dictionary and started to write in it she flips it over so Harry can see it, and read it and then she says "it is so see it's in my dictionary so gotsta is a word if it's in the dictionary." she puts the book down in Harry's hands and walked over to her piece of parchment and read. "For Snape charm his hair invisible, and when you see him scream VOLDORMORT. Then run away while taking fearful glances behind you, all the way down the corridor until you are out of sight." she looked over at Harry and saw he had a thoughtful look on his face.

"That would be very funny if that caught on. Oh and just because you wrote it in the dictionary does not make it a word."

"what ever harry stop trying to fix my speech it goes how I want it and anyone else can suck on your hairy toe."

"why my hairy toe why not your big toe?" he asked

"because dumb, dumb I don't want slobber all over my toes that would be gross." she answered.

"OK so did you put anything else or no?"

"yeah I got another one here it goes for Malfoy send him love letters from a secret admire and then on the last letter put it from Snape." they worked like this for several hours until they decided to go to bed.
