Twin Trouble

Chapter 1 – Twin Train Ride

Claire scowled at the news headlines; yet another issue trying to discredit Harry Potter. The Daily Prophet had sunk so low over the past few months. No respect for the boy who once stopped a great evil.

"Claire, stop reading the paper. You know it only makes you mad," said a bubbly voice. Claire put down the paper to see her sister, Lauren, happily munching on a piece of toast.

"How can I not get mad, when our society is drowning in ignorance!" she proclaimed.

"Easy; don't read the paper. There's no point in getting frustrated over what our government refuses to believe. Eventually, something will happen and those fools at the ministry will have no choice but to believe Professor Dumbledore and Harry. But until then, forget about it. If they want to deceive themselves, it's they're own fault for the consequences."

Claire stared at her. "How can you be so smart?"

Lauren smiled "I'm you're twin, remember? You didn't think you'd gotten all the brains, did you?"

Furiously walking down the Hogwarts Express, the two identical twins bickered as they walked, drawing the attention of people, already settled for the trip.

"Jesus, Lauren, why did we have to stop for a roasted chestnuts? Now we're late!" complained Claire.

"The man said he was a single parent, sending his children to university. I wanted to help!" Lauren replied.

"Well, I'm sure two gallons really helped a muggle." She said, sarcastically.

"Oh, how was I supposed to remember that muggles have their own money?"

"What kind of stupid question is that?!" Claire sighed. "it doesn't matter anyway. But now we're late and all the damn carriages are full. We'll be lucky if we don't have to end up with first years. Or worse; Slytherins."

Suddenly, a red-haired boy stuck his head out of a carriage ahead.

"Hey, Claire, Lauren, you need a carriage?" asked George Weasly

Lauren blushed slightly. Claire rolled her eyes and responded. "Sure. You have room?"

"Always for you two." Grinned George.

The girls obeyed and joined the carriage. As they sat down, opposite to the boys, Fred couldn't help but notice something different about them. More specifically, with their blonde hair. Even more specifically, there was a purple streak on one of them.

"What's with the colour?" he asked.

Lauren answered. "Well, we were holidaying on the Greek Islands and I wanted to do something wild and spontaneous."

"So you got a purple streak in you're hair?" suggested George.

"Well, yes." Lauren replied meekly. "What do you think?"

"I like it. Brings out you're carefree style." George blushed faintly. "Not that you couldn't see it before." He said quickly. Fred subtly elbowed him. "You're rambling," he hissed.

Lauren had gone all starry eyed and didn't notice. But Claire, who was attentive as a hawk, raised her eyebrows a bit, but said nothing.

Hello new readers.

I've always loved Fred and George, and i'm proud to say that this is my first fanfic where i havn't made myself the main character. But i will may pop in, alittle later. just for fun.

I was inspired to write this after seeing the new Harry Potter movie. And becasue this is set in that year, i will try to keep it as timeliney and cannon as possible. I hope you like it.
