A Prank Gone Wrong
Harry sat in the Gryffindor common room trying to concentrate on his school work. Hermione was trying to get Ron to do the same thing but having no luck. It was there fifth year at Hogwarts and it was proving to be a difficult year. Voldemort or as many chose to call him He who will not be named, was back and his followers were growing. Delores Umbridge was the defense against Dark Arts teacher. She didn't teach them spells or anything useful. The Ministry was trying to deny the Dark Lords return and she would do her best to make the Minister of Magic proud. Harry secretly taught a group of students the spells that she refused to teach them.
The Daily Prophet tried daily to discredit Harry and Dumbledore. Albus Dumbledore was the head master of the school and a very great wizard. He knew that Harry told the truth about the rise of the Dark Lord and even defended him when he was going to be expelled over dementors attacking. But had not talked much with Harry since.
Harry Potter was best friends with Ron Weasley and Hermione Granger. He also had his enemies inside the school. Draco Malfoy was that enemy. He was not in his house thank goodness so they didn't have to hang out together. But they did have to go to some classes together. Potions being one of them. Professor Snape seemed to hate Harry and he didn't understand why.
Hermione stood up and announced that she was going to the library in frustration. Harry decided to go with her. She was so good at homework that he wasn't going to be left with no one to help him when he finally got stuck. The two made their way to the library carefully watching the stairs which liked to move sometimes when they were on them. They saw Malfoy sitting with his cronies when they entered and decided to sit on the other side of the room. Malfoy was angry at seeing them but said nothing as they passed.
"I'm going to get them good." he sneered to Crabbe and Coyle.
"What are you going to do?" Crabbe said as he tried to open his ink well. Malfoy looking annoyed flicked his wand causing the well to open and it's contents spill on Coyle.
"Coyle I found a spell that will put them in an awkward position."
"What is it, Draco?"
"Do you think I'm stupid enough to tell you? No I'll just write it down and put it somewhere they will find it." Malfoy said spotting Neville. "No I've got a better idea."
Malfoy walked over to Neville. "hey long bottom give this note to Weasely."
"Yes Draco." Neville scurried away from Malfoy. Malfoy had stolen his remember all in his first year and caused a big fuss so he kept his distance. He slowly made his way up to their common room where he found Ron trying to his homework finally. Neville handed him the piece of paper as Harry and Hermione entered the room. He opened it with his wand in his hand. He read out loud still not realizing they were their and a yellow light shot out of his wand and hit Hermione in the stomach sending her backwards. Ron dropped the paper and ran to Hermione while Harry went to pick up the paper. But before he could get there Ginny Weasely picked it up and read it out loud and the light again went out and hit Harry in the with the same result as Hermione.
Neville picked up the paper and again read it with his wand now in his hand and hit Ron while he was coming to try and stop him. Harry quickly got up and ran to Neville and took it from him. He silently read the paper but didn't think any thing would happen when all of a sudden the yellow light shot out and hit Ginny resulting on her being flat on her back. Harry dropped the paper once again and ran to her. Seamus saw the paper lying on the ground when he came down to see what the ruckus was about. As he started to read they all screamed no. and he stopped immediately. He looked at Harry as he made his way over to him and took it stuffing it into his pocket.
"Ron where did you get this from?"
"Neville gave it to me." Ron said turning to look at Neville.
"Draco told me to give that to you I didn't know it was a spell." Neville stammered.
"We best go to the hospital wing." Hermione reasoned.
"Do we have to?" Ron whined.
"Ron we do not know what spell this is. I certainly haven't ever ran across it in my reading."
"Ok If we have too."
"Well good luck you all. I'll just be going to my room now."
"Oh no you don't Neville You are going with us. I'm sure Madame Pomfrey will have plenty of questions for you."
Slowly Neville lead the group to the hospital wing and was approached by Madame Pomfrey.
"What are you lot doing here?" She asked a little skeptical.
"They were hit by an unknown spell."
"What do you mean an unknown spell and how did they get hit by it if it unknown?"
Hermione quickly went about telling Madame Pomfrey exactly what happened. She then asked if they had the paper on which the spell was written. Harry produced the note from his pocket and gave it to Madame Pomfrey.
She read the note with out her wand or really thinking about it. She recognized it immediately and sent for Professor McGonagall and Professor Dumbledore. With in minutes they both arrived. They eyed the students as Dumbledore spoke to Madame Pomfrey.
"What is wrong here?"
"Professor Dumbledore it seems like there has been a very evil prank pulled on these children. It seems that Mr. Malfoy gave Mr. Longbottom this note to Mr. Weasely" she handed the note over to the Professor who glanced at it wide eyed.
"Did any of you read this out loud with your wands out?" He asked with sadness in his eyes.
Hermione again was the first to find her voice and explained what happened. Dumbledore nodded as she spoke.
"Have you performed the test?" McGonagall said finally comprehending it all.
"Not yet." the healer said looking at the bewildered children. "They don't even know what the spell was."
Dumbledore looked sadly again at the students sitting on beds. Harry felt like he was going to be sick. Ron didn't feel any better. Hermione was terrified and Ginny was starting to cry. He cleared his throat and started to explain to the students what was going on.
"It seems that Mr. Malfoy has found the pregnancy spell that can make any witch or Wizard pregnant by simply casting this spell. Madame Pomfrey will give you a test now to find out if the spell worked. Mr. Longbottom please stop looking like it is all your fault. If anything you are only guilty of bad judgment. You did not know what the paper said and took Mr. Malfoy in good faith that he did not mean any harm."
Madame Pomfrey then went into a little storage room and brought out four vials of the nastiest looking stuff they had ever seen. She told them to drink the entire vile and wait. All four did so and gasp at how bad it tasted. They waited a few minutes and all suddenly felt the need to burp. Ron was the first to burp and when he did a large blue bubble emerged. Dumbledore shook his head. Soon Harry and Hermione both burped with their own blue bubbles. And then a few minutes later Ginny too burped and produced a blue bubble.
The Professors all stared at the four students. "Well you all are pregnant." Madame Pomfrey said. As Hermione and Ginny started to cry and Harry and Ron just got quiet. She continued. "Now you will have choices to make but they have to be made soon. You can decide to have the babies and keep them or put them up for adoption or we can terminate the pregnancies now but you have to make that one now if we are going to do that."
The four students answered immediately. "No we will have the babies."
"Ok then we will need to have you start taking potions to help the babies grow. We can also get you one potions to help with morning sickness and to help you all not show."
"We will also be telling the other professors that you four are ill and are to report to the hospital wing immediately if you feel at all unwell. And we will have to deal with Mr. Malfoy." Dumbledore said. "And no risk taking you four."
The teens nodded. Madame Pomfrey decided to keep the four over night and they decided that the DA would be postponed at least until Umbridge was gone. They didn't want to risk the punishment she would surely hand out if they were found. Not now that they were going to be parents. The next morning They were met by Professor Dumbledore who told them that he was having parenting books brought to the castle and that the teachers had been told exactly what he said they would be told with the exception of Snape who was angry with Draco's punishment. Dumbledore in a very rare scene had been so angry that he took 100 points from Slytherin and gave him the rest of term detention with McGonagall.
Harry and Ron returned to their dorm rooms to be met by Neville who again apologized. Harry said "Don't worry we are going to be ok. We are going to be parents as you know but more than that we are alive."
Hermione and Ginny went to the library to research their problem. Draco was also there but didn't look them in the eye. He hadn't told any one about his punishment or what happened but every one knew he had done something.
Harry went to bed that night feeling more tired and sore than after a quiddich game. He slept soundly for a change.
