The Bad Gryffindor

Chapter 1

The beginning of a new year

Waking up to two familiar voices, I sat up on my bed rubbing any sleep out of my eyes. I growled as I looked towards my muggle alarm clock, that Mr. Weas- I mean daddy got me. It was 9:30 in the morning and I was NOT in a good mood when woken up in the morning. I shot my head towards the two red-headed twins and sent a death glare their way. Fred and George both chuckled and high-fived each other for successfully waking me up. I glared for a few more seconds before collapsing back onto my bed pulling my black blankets over my head. When I thought I would get back to sleep those annoying twits walked over to my bed and jumped, landing right on top of me. And I thought Bill and Charlie were annoying!.

"Come on, Raven! Mum says its time to get up so we can get to the platform early!" Fred yelled in my ear, making me jump slightly.

"Yeah so get up!" exclaimed George, who was pulling at my arm.

I growled and used depulso to knock them back.

"Looks like we ticked her off, George!" Fred exclaimed happily, too happily if you ask me.

"Indeed we did, Fred" George agreed with a smile.

"Get out!" I yelled towards the two twins. Fred and George laughed and got up. Both devious twins walked toward my bed and grabbed my arms and dragged me out of my bed and down the stairs.

"H-Hey! Let me go you twits!" I yelled as they continued to drag me towards the kitchen. I started kicking around trying to get away.

"Let go dammit!"

They finally let go of me when they placed me in a chair between them at the table. Mrs. Weas- I mean mum placed a plate of bacon, eggs, and toast in front of me with a glass of orange juice.

I nodded my head in thanks and silently ate. I looked up slightly hearing someone sit across from me. Seeing that it was Ron I looked back down and continued to eat. Everyone began talking about what they hope to come for the school year. None bothered to ask me knowing I wouldn't answer. Ron was saying he was excited to finally being able to go to school like all the rest of his brothers and blah blah blah. Same old thing I've been hearing all freaking summer.

After breakfast was over everyone, including me, scattered from the table to make sure everything was packed, or in my case get some extra sleep. I quietly walked over to my bed, not bothering to close the door, and laid down. Haha, how the world doesn't want to go my way, Fred and George yet again arrive at my door way with their trunks in hand.

"Hey look, Fred, she's trying to sleep again!" George pointed out chuckling.

"Indeed, George! Let's wake her up permanently!" Fred replied in a devious tone. I quickly shot up, thinking they were gonna dump ice water on me. Boy was I waaaay off! The minute I sat up I felt hands snake around my waist, hugging me and two pair of lips on my neck. I blushed a deep scarlet before yelling at them.

"GET OFF ME YOU DAMN PERVES!"

Fred and George chuckled and did as I command, getting up and letting go of me.

"Don't fall back asleep" They told me waving their hands at me and walking out of my room, grabbing their trunks and descending down the stairs.

I quickly changed into muggle clothing: a low cut black tank-top, black jeans, and black converse and did the usual morning routine. When I was finished I pulled out my trunk and dragged it with me down stairs.

"Bout time ya got dressed and got down here!" Ron yelled from across the room.

I shot him a glare and sat in a chair across from him. I sat in silence as everyone was still scattered about trying to get ready still except for Ginny, who was moping about saying how bad she wanted to go to Hogwarts.

"Trust me Ginny, Hogwarts isn't all that fun." I told her dully. " Your torture will come soon enough."

Ginny looked at me and laughed. "Right, Fred and George must be a hassle" Ginny replied giggling.

About an hour later we were finally at Kingscross station heading toward the platform. The time being about 10:40 am. I gave Mol- mother a quick hug and ran toward the barrier crossing over to Platform 9 ¾. I quickly gave my luggage to the person who stores them and went aboard the train. I quickly made my way to an empty compartment and shuffled inside, locking the door behind me. I sat down and sighed, "Finally some peace and quiet"

I left my thoughts to wonder after that for what seemed like hours before I hear the trolly that runs by my compartment. I stood up and unlocked my compartment door pulling out some money.

"Anything from the trolly, dear?" The kind old lady asked with a smile. I smiled back before replying.

"Oh, yes please! I'll take 2 chocolate frogs, a box of Bertie Botts, a pack of Droobles and a can of soda please, root beer if its available."

The old woman kept smiling as she told me the price, getting everything out. I paid her, taking my things into the compartment and set them down on the seat beside me.

I decided to start with the pack of Drooble's and started staring out the window. A few moments later I felt a pressure appear randomly next to me and heard someone sit down across from me. I quickly snapped my head in the direction, ready to jinx them only to see it was Fred, George, and their friend Lee Jordan. I gave all of them a glare.

"Can I help you?" I asked annoyed.

The mischievous trio chuckled as Fred place his arm around my shoulders.

"Well little sis" Fred began and George continued.

"We just wanted to point out you have something on your head."

Lee covered up his laughter.

Another prank is it? Must they always bother me? I raised my hand to the top of my head to see what it was. I felt hairy legs slowly crawling onto my hand. I cautiously put my hand down onto my lap. My eyes widened at the Tarantula looking up at me with its beady little eyes. Fred George and Lee burst out laughing, thinking they pranked me. I began to pet the Tarantula slowly with my finger.

"Hey there little guy. How did you get on top of my head?" I asked toward the spiders, causing Fred, George, and Lee to stop laughing.

George and Fred were the first to speak up against me not being scared.

"You aren't scared?"

"Why aren't you scared?"

"Why should I be?" I asked not lifting my eyes from the poisonous spider. "It's just a spider"

Lee and the twins exchanged glances with each other before laughing again.

"You, princess are very brave" Lee commented.

I sighed at the nickname Lee gave me last year and I have no idea why he calls me it. I rolled my eyes and said whatever as a reply.

"Is there something else I can "help" you with?" I asked in nonchalance.

They all shook their heads and I nodded.

"Then leave me alone."

I placed the tarantula on Fred's shoulder. They exchange looks once more before getting up and leaving, closing the door behind them.

What felt like forever the train finally came to a stop at the small station a few ways away from Hogwarts. I, who changed already into my robes, made my way off the train to join the other students who were boarding the carriages. Passing by Slytherin's said hello and waved, I doing the same greeting to them. I boarded a carriage, seeing no one inside. Waiting a few moment later three more students joined me. Those three were third years: Adrian Pucey, Cassius Warrington, and Graham Montague. They're Slytherin's and on the Quidditch team.

"Evening Pucey, Warrington, Montague." I greeted.

"Good Evening, Raven." They greeted back.

"How was your summer?" asked Adrian.

"Boring, long, and annoying." I replied back.

"I trust your summers were interesting?"

"I'd say mine would be the same as yours" Cassius replied.

" More or less" said Graham.

"Mine was spent out of the country!" chuckled Adrian.

"Screw you, Adrian." Cassius, Graham, and I shot at him. A few seconds past before we all broke out laughing. Ahh it's good to be back. I smiled as we all talked about what we all actually did this summer and how we thought this year was going to be more or less interesting.
