Brother and Sisters

I stood under the stairs with my cousin, Fred. We were waiting for our sisters to come downstairs. We were there to ambush them with a prank for the one they gave us on Sunday.

Last Sunday, Fred and I were outside planning our next prank for Professor Lock, he was the potion master. He caught us pulling a prank on the Slytherins.

As we were thinking about it, I felt something hit my head making it all wet. I looked at the sky and saw there wasn't a cloud in the sky. I felt water on my side and saw that Fred was wet too. I glanced up at the house and saw there was no one there until I felt something me again. The window to Uncle Ron's old room was opened. I nudged Fred with my elbow, he looked at me and I pointed up. He saw what I saw and got hit in the face with invisible balloon. Someone from the inside was getting us.

Fred and I went around the front of the Burrow, we went in. Grandmum gave us a look because we were all wet. We gave Grandmum our must winning smile before leaving the room. We went upstairs to Uncle Ron's room. We stood outside the door.

I put my finger to my lips to let Fred know to be quiet. Fred smiled and nodded. I put my hand on the nob ad turned it. I opened the door and yelled, "Gotcha." There was no one in the room. Fred and I traded confused looks. I went over to the bed and looked under there was no one there. Fred went over to the wardrobe and opened it to see there was no one there. We looked around the room to see there was no one here. I was about to shake my head when I saw a pink shoe in the corner, it was gone before I could show Fred.

I tapped Fred on the arm; he looked over at me with a look. I pointed to the corner. He gave me a questionably look. I gave him the answer he was looking for through my eyes. He got what I meant. We got to the corner and I reached out in thin air, I pulled Dad's invisibility cloak off to find Lily and Roxanne covering their mouths, trying not to laugh. There were water balloons behind them. I knew who was behind it. Fred and I didn't say anything just left; Lily and Roxanne knew what was coming to them.

On Wednesday, Roxanne and Fred came over for dinner with their parents. Fred and I ran upstairs to my room to plan on what we were going to do to our sisters. We came up with jelly filled balloons. We got our evil smiles on. We were going to get to them.

Now we are standing behind the stairs waiting for them. We heard footsteps coming down. We jumped out and threw the balloons; we didn't see that it was our mothers until we heard.

"James," "Fred," From our mothers.

We looked up and knew we were in trouble. I looked up the stairs and saw Lily and Roxanne laughing. They knew what was happening and sent our mothers first. I gave them 'this means war' look before Mum grabs my arm and pulls me into the kitchen.
