Hairspray and Baseball Bats

Weasley's: Marie, Kyle, Susan

Snape's: Brian, Anna

Anna woke with a start when she heard a crashing noise coming from the kitchen. She swung her legs out of her bed quickly as heard another sound, something breaking. A burglar? She thought. Looking around for a weapon of some sort, she realized she had none, so instead she grabbed her bottle of hairspray and got out of bed. She opened her door and silently stepped into the hall. Right at that moment, the door opposite of hers opened and Anna jumped in surprise as she heard a deep voice.

"Anna?" she heard her brother's voice whisper in the darkness. "Did you hear that too?"

"Yeah." She responded. "I think it came from the kitchen."

"Come on, let's check it out." He said bravely, taking her hand.

"Brian, I'm scarred. What if it's a burglar?" Anna whispered.

"Anna! You're a Gryffindor! You're supposed to be brave!" Brian whispered hotly.

"But…oh, fine." Anna gave in and followed her brother down the stairs.

"Do you have a weapon or something?" he asked as they reached the kitchen door. It was still dark and they heard another sound coming from the room.

"Um, you could say that." Anna said weakly.

"Good. On three." He said. "One, two…"

"Three." They both said, bursting into the kitchen.

"Show yourself!" Brian yelled. Anna flipped on the light. When they saw who had 'broken into' their house, Brian made an exasperated sound and Anna giggled behind her hand. "You have to stop doing that!" he exclaimed. Their dad looked up, their mother still in his arms and sitting on the counter.

"Doing what?" Severus Snape asked. "Besides, what were you going to do? Spray us to death?" he mentioned to Anna's can of hairspray.

"I have a bat!" Brian said, holding up his baseball bat.

"Yeah, but still…" Hermione Granger said to her son, her arms still around her husbands neck.
