2. The Weasley Twins (Sigh.)
3. 807 Things I'm Not Allowed To Do At Hogwarts (If I did, I'd be bloody brilliant, and it would't take me so long to think of interesting fics to write...)
4. Any other HP references made in this fic; they belong to J.K. Rowling... not matter how much I would like to own them.
A/N: Welcome to my 2nd HP fic! I just came back from watching the final *sob* movie, and had a burst of inspiration to write this fic! So I'm putting it up! I feel that a few laughs might help during such a depressing time... *bursts into tears* IT'S OVERRRRRRR! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
Anyway, as I continue my sobfest, why don't you read the story?
Now, it is a fact known throughout the Wizarding World that two certain redheaded twins are prone to pulling pranks and tricks that would make (and quite likely have made) Minerva McGonagall turn red with fury and spout steam from her rather large ears. These two have pulled everything from turning a Hogwarts corridor into a swamp to their rather infamous, fiery, departure from said magical academy. Not a wizard, witch, squib, or magical creature alive (or dead and still hanging around) hasn't heard of the two devilish young men.
But have you never wondered when they achieved such a widespread image of being pranksters? When did they become known for their tricks? One might assume that it was a rather large and spectacular prank which rose them to immediate fame as mischievous fellows, but they would be wrong. They rose to fame after a theatrical disagreement they created between their sister and a certain blonde Slytherin, but I digress...
It all began on a sunny day during the summer after their 1st year at Hogwarts. Fred and George had been causing quite a bit of trouble at home, and their mother, Molly, had taken away their wands. Now the poor boys were stuck at home. They were not allowed to perform any magic, and they had already exhausted their supply of candy, bombs, and Whoopie Cushions (these delightful little Muggle contraptions that make a farting noise whenever an unfortunate person happens to sit on them... In fact, it was one of these very cushions that made their mother confiscate their wands). So they sat in their rooms, looking very *gasp* bored.
"Well, Fred? What do ya reckon we should do now?" George asked, completely out of interesting ideas.
"Maybe we could take a look at that muggle thingy Dad was fiddling with yesterday... What was it called? A contuter? Comduter? No... Ah right! Computer!" Fred responded with vigor.
"Sounds interesting... Let's go take a look!" George proclaimed as both of them scrambled out of bed and rushed to their parents' room, bursting open the door and knocking a couple of items over in their haste. They reached the computer and began fiddling with it. For a while, nothing happened, and both were stumped as to what to do. But then, George managed to find a button on it. Upon pressing the button, the entire contraption began humming and a light came on, illuminating a screen. Both boys peered at it, curious beyond belief. They played around with some things, realizing that a round thing attached to a wire made a little arrow on the screen move, and that the arrow could be used to do things on the screen. They had currently opened the thing called Internet, and had decided to play around with it a bit.
Right then, Arthur Weasley burst into the room, looking (as always) a bit frazzled. When he noticed the two boys sitting in front of the computer, looking like deer caught in headlights (whatever those are), instead of blowing up, as would be expected, he simply grinned. He walked over to the twins and sat down next to them, taking a glance at the screen. With a chuckle, he began to explain the fascinating thing known as Internet to them.
"And this is a search bar-"
"What's a search bar, dad?" Fred asked, interrupting his father.
"You can look for anything in the world by typing into it," Arthur responded good-naturedly
"Blimey! Anything?" The twins responded in unison, their eyes growing large.
"ARTHUR WEASLEY! YOU GET DOWN RIGHT NOW!"
Arthur sighed, "Alright boys. I'll leave you two to play around a bit, but don't break anything". As he walked out the door, Arthur looked back at his sons and chuckled to himself, "Even though I know they will".
The boys scrambled and started entering things into the search bar. At first, it was rather obvious things; they looked up themselves and jokes and all assortments of objects. And then they looked up... well, things I rather not mention. Young boys, you know.
Finally, they looked up their classmates, and Hogwarts. Scrolling through the list of webpages, they noticed a rather interesting one...
807 Things I'm Not Allowed To Do At Hogwarts
... hmmm
*click*
"AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! Bloody brilliant! Mcgonagall and Mrs. Norris! Snape and Lupin!"
The twins continued to read the list, roaring in laughter every couple of seconds, until they had finally gone through all 807 of them.
"You know what George? We should do these things..." Fred thought out loud.
"You're right mate! Starting next year, we'll do everything on this list!"
And that was when it all began...
So that was the first chapter! I know it was a bit short, but I think I'll keep the shorter chapters. They're easier to write, and it'll mean frequent updates! Please review and let me know what you think! It would be great to hear your feedback and get some ideas about how to proceed. :) SO REVIEW! Or I will not post. At all.
:) I know. I'm an absolute DARLING, aren't I? But seriously, review. It's my food, and my water. You wouldn't want me to die, would you? Because then nobody would continue this fic... SO REVIEW REVIEW REVIEW! (Btdubs, that's my motto!).
