Be Surprised
Hello, reader! This is Susan Sewell's and Z-Aquarius-Kai's first attempt at co-writing! And we are so excited…Well, a little bit about the story: We are going to co-write some chapters while some chapters might be totally written by one of us! Susan's OC is Frankie and Z-A-K's OC is Jackie. This is a Fred/OC and George/OC story (yay!), we are not telling who is whose OC! Hehehe. Evil, we know but we are sure you'll figure out soon enough. This story is set during Goblet of Fire i.e. the twins sixth year at Hogwarts. We assure you there IS a plot, so be tuned in!

Chapter 1-We get a detention
Hello... I am Frankie, short for Francissa, and this exact copy of mine sitting next to me is my twin sister, Jackie, short for Jacqueline. We were named so because our mother loved Agatha Christie (A/N you guess the ones from which are names are taken!) And the boy, even though he keeps reminding us he's a man, sitting next to her is our brother Oliver Wood, Captain of Gryffindor Quiddich team. I love the way he plays. My siblings are currently talking about the Quidditch tryouts for which, I have a feeling, I will be forced to come. Not that I dislike it or something but my sister tends to get a bit hyper, with the emphasis not on 'a bit'. Anyway, I do feel the world should get our chance to see the powerhouse of talent that we have.
This is Hogwarts, and today is the beginning of my sixth year here. Yes, and this amazing place is the Great Hall. On the other side of me is the entire Weasley family (Ronald, Fred, George and Ginny) plus Harry, but I suppose he is more of a Weasley than a Potter. Oliver is safe from Fred and George as he has Hermione sitting beside him and by the look on her face they had been planning something against him. Ahh! Hogwarts. The place where we get our sweet revenge from brother dearest. Yes, Oliver isn't the picture of innocence he looks.
"Welcome students, this year , Hogwarts is hosting the Triwizard Tournament . Very soon our two guest schools will arrive, the Beauxbaton Academy of Magic and the Durmstrang Institute" Professor Dumbledore breaking through my stream of thoughts." This was followed by sorting the first years.
Oops...I forgot! Me and Jackie had been appointed as prefects! And hearing the chatter beside me I can safely believe so did she. We were to lead the first years to the common room!
"Come on, kids," I gestured the first years to follow us.
"Frankie, we totally forgot that we were prefects. We have to be on guard or the look McGonagall
gave me would be just the first of many," Jackie whispered as we went up the stairs.
"Really? What did she do?" I asked, a little worried now. I didn't want to be in McGonagall
bad books. I liked her most of the time but when she was on the war path it was better to put on an Invisibilty Cloak. I did hear Harry had one. Maybe he would give it to his favourite pair of prefects.
"Hello, so it's the Woods this year. My, my, it seems only days ago when you were as small as those little children behind you…" she would have gone on because the Fat Lady loves to talk all the time.
" Copper," we muttered, interrupting her flow of conversation. She frowned and swung the door open to show the way into the Gryffindor common room.
"Well, first years," I started, "this is your common room. The fat lady won't let you enter until you give her the password so for the forgetful ones I have only one advice: Try remembering it or practice sleeping outside."
I smiled as Jackie gave me a Thumbs Up and spoke up, smiling impishly, "Not that we ever did that."
I rolled my eyes. We are the ones who begged the Fat Lady to let us enter after we spent an hour trying to recall the password. Jackie wrapped her hand around mine and addressed the awestruck First-years, "Off to your dormitories."
We made our way into our dormitory and just as I began to get sleepy Jackie whispered" Hey , Frankie, heard that?"
"What?" I opened my eyes to look at my twin and strained an ear to catch any noise. "I can't hear a thing." I snuggled deep into my blankets to get back to sleep.
Frankie pulled off my blanket and said, "I hear some noises in the common room, I suggest we should go and see "
" Hmm... Is it necessary?" I Enquired half sleeping and yawning.
"Yes, absolutely , remember , we are the prefects!" She spoke as if it was obvious that the life of prefects was being out of bed at midnight hunting up all the rats who made a noise.
" Oh yeah!" I got up lazily. Come to think of it what if someone was up. We would be the ones to get into trouble. "Jackie, I am coming!" I slipped on a sweater and slippers and rushed after the already descending girl.
On reaching the common room we sighted an ankle exiting the portrait and it closing behind.
"Who was that? It's not allowed to roam about at this hour of time" Jackie declared. "We need to tell them to come back."
"Copper" I muttered.
"Ooh, kids roaming about so late at night! This isn't done!" the fat lady began shouting.
"Shush! Keep quiet, we are the Prefects, we're just going to tell them to come back," I informed her.
They late-night adventurers were no other than Fred and George, the red haired Weasley twins .
"For your kind information, it's way beyond the time after which students aren't supposed to roam about the corridors. Would you both mind getting in?"
"Oh twin prefects, we do mind. It's so fun to be out here this late," replied George nudging Fred who stowed something inside his satchel.
"Oh no! Someone's coming," Jackie whispered. A few seconds later we identified the 'someone' as Professor McGonagall.
"Merlin! What are you double-twins doing here!" she said, looking at us as if we were a bad smell. "Detention, tomorrow night with Hagrid. Ten points off Gryffindor."
"But-" I began.
"20," she said, sternly.
"But, professor-" began Jackie
"30," she scowled. With that she left and we started off to the common room.
We were quiet all the way back but as soon as we entered our common room I turned to the main culprits. Fred and George Weasley.
"You," I said taking care to add the dangerous tone to my voice.
"Sorry, love, but we have to get our beauty sleep," George mocked. I could see that it was George. See, there is always a slight difference between twins however identical they seem. I have noticed George is slightly slimmer than Fred and Fred is slightly taller than George.
I felt angry seeing the two of them walk towards the boy's dormitory. I looked at Jackie and nodded.
"Pertificius Totalus," we cried. I watched in satisfaction as the twins froze.
"We have not had a detention ever and the reason we are going to have one is all because of you two. Couldn't you have told McGonagall that it wasn't our fault?" I snarled.
"Great Gryffindors you two are!" Jackie said, shaking her head sadly.
We started towards the girl's dormitory before I decided to let them free. Fred stretched, "That would be forty."
"What?" asked Jackie.
"Forty points off Gryffindor," he replied simply before joining his brother to cackle crazily.
I grabbed Jackie's hand before she could think of a spell to hit Fred's disappearing form. And when we finally fell into our beds all my sleep was lost.
