Chapter 1

(Almost) all characters belong to J.K.Rowling. The plot belongs to ME!!!

Please review! I want to be a writer and I want to see how people react to my style!

If you review I´m going to write more chapters. If not it means no one would read them anyway.

"GRED!!!"

"Wh-What? Who´s there? I have a..." Fred grabbed a wand from beside the bed. "A wand and I´m allowed to use it... Yes, I´m of age." He shouted and tried to open his eyes.

Fred jumped out of the bed shrieking. George was laughing at the sight of his scared brother who was holding a slimy frog in his hand.

"It´s you! Why didn´t you tell me that it was a fake wand?" Fred said pretty angrily, though not really convinced that he wouldn't have done the same thing if he was in the same situation.

"Urgh! What time is it?" he asked staring at his slimy hand.

"Too late." George replied still grinning. "You know that school starts in only one week. Kids want our Skiving Snackboxes." This time no answer came from Fred, who was in the bathroom using loads of soap to wash his hands.

"Come on, it´s not like it was poisoned." his twin tried to persuade him to get to the shop in time.

"Hey, that´s a good idea. For that bloke, Malfoy. I could give Harry or Ron a fake wand with a poisoned frog." Fred thought still washing his hands but realized that if Ron and Harry got expelled, his mother would go mad. Literally.

After Fred felt like there was no more skin to rub off his hands, he went down the stairs covered by a deep red carpet.

"Next time clean your shoes before walking on me! I have feelings, you know!" Fred heard the carpet shouting and jumped up the second time in less than 10 minutes. Every morning he was blaming his mother for getting them to buy a Humanocarpet.

After disarming numerous traps set by George who always woke up earlier than him, Fred finally reached the kitchen.

He summoned some bread and marmalade on the table that suited the twins perfectly, being merrily yellow with orange stripes that were moving to the opposite end of the table every time they were touched. Fred greedily brought his breakfast to his mouth, when...

"Accio bread!" The piece of bread flew right into George´s right hand.

"Forge!" Fred said quite annoyed, but couldn´t finish what he was about to say since George had already pulled him out of the kitchen.

"We have to get to the store!" George explained to his twin who stood there with his mouth still opened and a frustrated look on his face. He quickly locked the door magically and tried to get his brother to apparate.

Finally both brothers apparated in front of the shop, where hundreds of people of all ages were waiting for the shop to open.

"Wow, we really are pretty popular already." George said with a glance at the big WWW sign above the door. It was yellow with orange stripes and somehow reminded of the kitchen table in the boys´ house.

"Let the fun begin." George told all the persons who were getting slightly annoyed and unlocked the door.

Everyone ran into the shop and picked up everything that seemed to be interesting. Of course everything was interesting, so about two hours later the twins had to restock, but with a couple of wand swishes the bright yellow shop was filled once again with joke articles.

The shop was colorful and spacious, which was a necessity, and thanks to some charms Hermione had taught the boys also really neat and clean. Everything was in alphabetical order, so you could find whatever you wanted really fast.

"Hey, George! Look who´s coming!" Fred said a couple of hours later mischievously grinning and pointed his finger towards Draco Malfoy, who had his hand on the doorknob, obviously wondering whether he should open the door or not. The expression of disgust towards the Weasleys´ in Malfoy´s eyes turned into fear and surprise when he entered the shop and three boxing gloves hit him, two from each side and one in his pointy face.

"OW!" he screamed and fell down. Everybody started laughing when he lifted up his head again.

"Stop it!" Malfoy screamed. Evidently, he wasn´t used to people making fun of him.

"What´s wrong? What are you all laughing at?" he said not being able to see himself, or rather his head which said: "I´m an ugly stupid git and that´s why I´m banned from this shop FOREVER."

An extremely angry, though not really aware of what just happened, Malfoy left the shop saying something that sounded like: "You´ll pay for this, Weasley." and then turned around when he was standing in front of the shop.

"You´re lucky Dad isn´t here." he said staring at the twins.

"Oh, yeah, you´re right, Draco-sweety. Where is your Daddy? Is he having tea with HIS Daddy? You know, the big ugly guy... Lord Voldemort´s his name, right?" the twins said getting more and more annoyed. Lucius Malfoy had escaped Azkaban only 2 weeks after he was caught by Dumbledore and the other members of the Order of the Pheonix.

"You´ll pay for this." Malfoy said again and left.

"D´you reckon he knows that the writing will stay on his face for one whole month?" Fred asked George, who started laughing so loudly that several people turned around and looked at him curiously.

Nothing unusual happened during the next three hours, except that the twins had to restock every half an hour, since most children attending Hogwarts were doing some last-minute shopping now.

"Gred, guess who´s coming?" George said and waved at someone opening the door.

Fred, too busy to look around, replied: "Not Malfoy with his daddy, right?"

George had no time to answer to answer Fred´s question, because Ginny jumped on Fred´s back and gave him a tight hug.

"Guys, I missed you!" she said happily.

Ron, Harry and Hermione entered the shop, too, and Hermione marched up to the twins to congratulate them on their charms, while Harry and Ron were preoccupied with picking up anything that seemed "helpful".

"It´s already nine o´clock in the evening. What are you all doing here?" the twins asked their friends and siblings.

"Well, actually, we have to get home in 5 minutes, but we just wanted to say hello." Hermione said in her usual bossy voice.

"Oh, OK then. Hello!" the twins said not that cheerfully anymore. Why did they have to get home that early?

"OK, we´ve got to go now." Ginny said, but was interrupted by Ron and Harry who had their hands full of Fever Fudges, Skiving Snackboxes and whatever candies the twins had invented.

"We´d like to buy these." they said and gave the twins their money for the sweets.

"Aha, that´s why you came over. To get stuff for school." Fred said pretty angrily. "Well, OK, go home!"

"We don´t want to, mate!" Harry said. "But Mrs. Weasley would kill us if we were late. You know how worried she always is about us."

"We´re sorry! Bye! We´ll see you sooner than you think." Ron said and left, while the other three followed him without saying a word.

"Forge, what did he mean? You know, by saying: We´ll see you sooner than you think!" Fred asked his brother when no one was in the shop anymore.

"I don´t know, but we ought to get home now, or else we´ll be late tomorrow."

The Hogwarts-pranksters locked the door and disapparated. A moment later they got back to the house they called their home now.

George tried to turn on the lights, but somehow it didn´t work. He searched his cloak for his wand, but somehow he didn´t find it.

"Gred, do you have my wand?" he asked his innocent-looking brother.

"No. You might have left it in the shop." he answered and pretended he was going up to his bedroom. The now sleeping carpet didn´t say anything.

"Yeah, probably." George muttered and also went up the stairs to his room.

Fred waited until he heard George screaming and then followed him.

"Oh, well, brother, shouldn´t have left a Portable Swamp in THIS house!" he said and started laughing.
