Chapter Two
When the Head Girl came in to wake the girls the next morning, it was way too early for Isa. Not being a morning person, she crawled deep under the blankets and hid her head under her pillow. Not long after, she felt the bed shift under her sister's weight as Mette got up. Mette grabbed the blankets and yanked them off her sister.
"Nooo, too cold, too early, you're so dead."
"Come on, sleeping beauty, nice lessons await us ," Mette sing-songed.
Isa peeked out from under her pillow and grabbed her sister's legs throwing her onto the bed. "Hey, no fair." Mette giggled as she tried to get away from her sister. Resulting only to fall from the bed.
"Well, that's it, " Isa threatened her sister. She took her pillow and started hitting Mette with it. Mette tried to get out of range of her sister, so she hurried down the spiral staircase where she bumped into a rather large figure.
The Head Boy had woken the boys up earlier, and they were already dressed and in the common room. Except for Sirius and James; James was still trying to get Sirius out of the bed. Even after five years, Sirius still refused to get up in the morning, often causing James, Peter, and Remus to be late for classes. Remus was waiting for the others by the girls' staircase, when something small collided him, and he landed on the floor with a rather tousled-looking Mette on his back.
She in turn was being hit by a swarm of flying pillows from the girls' dorm. "Hi, Remus (whack) , sorry about (whack) this (whack), but my sister (whack) …aaauuww." Mette yelled and tried to get up, but just then her sister jumped on her and Remus.
"Excuse me, there is a person lying under here getting hurt." Remus gasped.
"Aaa, the poor skinny lad can't take pain." Isa observed as she grabbed her sister and slung her over her shoulder.
As Isa started to climb the staircase, Mette yelled to Remus, "Sorry, she can't help being an insensitive idiot sometimes." Isa carried her sister upstairs and into the girls' bathroom. and pushed her under the cold shower, soaking them both in the process.
The girls settled down into a fit of giggles as a very angry Professor McGonagall stormed into the bathroom. "I will not tolerate this kind of behaviour in my house. This is your first warning. If this happens again there will be a deduction of points from the house." With this, Professor McGonagall swept out of the room.
"Now see what you have done. We mustn't draw attention to us, Isa.," Mette said angrily while she put a drying spell on herself and her sister. After apologizing to each other, the girls met up with Lily and left for their breakfast.
The first lesson the girls shared was Potions. As they entered the dungeon - which according to Lily was full of creeping things and bits that could not be identified - they made their way over to the tables. Professor Horace Slughorn thought it would be a good idea to pair each of them up with someone else, for both girls were equally good at this subject.
Horace Slughorn had not only witnessed Isa's behaviour last night, he had also read the accompanying letter from their last school. The girls were interesting to say the least, and with such a background, he felt the need to explore their possibilities beyond the Potions class. Perhaps they would make a nice addition to the Slug Club but that would have to until after the class.
Seeing that Isa's behaviour would only collide with Mr. Black's; he teamed her up with Remus, who still was sore from the morning's collision and utterly disappointed that he got Isa and not Mette. Mette had to work together with Sirius, which at that point made her feel all nervous again, since she hadn't ever spoken a word to him.
While the professor wrote down the instructions for the potion, Remus noticed that Isa wasn't writing any of this down. "You know, it would be wise if you take some notes." He whispered to Isa.
"Well since you're so fond of notes you won't mind writing them down for me," she whispered back.
After that she got out the ingredients and started cutting them up while Remus found himself copying the notes twice. Mette on the other side of the room had her hands full with Sirius. He wasn't paying attention but instead leaned over to James and pointed towards one of the girls.
So Mette was left to make the potion alone while her partner was flirting with girls. Mette felt like she could explode. What a pompous ass he is.
As she started cutting up the ingredients, she heard her sister's voice. "Yo, Mister I'm-Too-Sexy-For-My-Shirt! Get your ass over to my sister and help her."
She looked up, shocked, as did their professor "Excuse me Miss Christianson what did you just say?"
"I think it's only fair that I tell my sister's partner off. He doesn't seem to want to do anything to help." Isa gave Sirius a dirty smirk.
The potions professor seemed to think this comment over and then turned his attention towards Sirius.
"Mr. Black, I think that Miss Christianson has a point there. If you will kindly assist Miss Mette Christianson, I will not give you detention, but don't let this happen again. I will be watching you."
For the rest of the lesson all his pupils were quiet; they didn't wanted to have detention nor any comments from the new girl. After the lesson Sirius stumped over to Isa.
"You." He pointed at her.
"Yes?" And Isa moved towards him until her nose was almost touching his.
That he didn't expect; most people got scared when he came up to them like that. The only thing he saw were those amazing eyes that seemed to be lit by fire. Man she has me tingling in places I didn't think I could.
"What's the matter?" she mocked him. "Cat got your tongue?" She looked at him and since he didn't move or comment any further, she walked off.
Sirius just stood there dumbstruck. "What just happened?", he asked Remus.
"I think you have met you match Sirius." Remus laughed.
"Uhm… I'm really sorry. I don't think my sister should have said what she said in the classroom." Mette said to Sirius. For the first time that day Sirius noticed the petite blond next to Remus and Lily.
"You're sure she's your twin sister?" Sirius heard Remus ask Mette.
"Yeah you seem so different." Lily added.
"You're her twin sister?" scoffed Sirius. "There is no way in hell that's possible. I mean, don't get me wrong. You're all cute and nice and stuff. But you're just so different. I'm mean not only on the inside but also on the outside." Mette turned a lovely shade of red when Sirius commented that she was cute and nice. She didn't know what to say to a comment like that.
"I need to go to the bathroom. Excuse me." Mette mumbled and ran off. Lily headed after her, ; no way was she going to stay alone with those boys.
"Okay. Maybe they do have one thing in common." Sirius said out loud.
"And what would that be?" Remus inquired.
"They're both weird. Must be a family trait." Sirius concluded.
"That's not very nice. I happen to think that Mette is very nice," Remus shot right back.
"Oooh. Looks like somebody has a little crush," James teased his friend.
Peter looked at Remus, "Hey, that one is mine. You can have the weird one."
All three boys looked at Peter. "I know she'll get to like me, and we promised not to steal each other's girls. I mean, otherwise Sirius would have had Lily in his bed a long time a go."
James turned towards Sirius who just looked utterly shocked. "Prongs. I swear she's all yours."
"But you would like to," James threatened.
"Stop it! Shut up! This is stupid!" Remus yelled while stepping in between them.
They all looked at each other and realized they were acting like idiots again. So they decided to get some air, and turned towards the castle exit.
Lily turned the corner just in time to see Mette disappear into an empty classroom. Carefully she opened the door and heard Mette speak to herself. "Stupid. Stupid. Stupid. Why do I have to be so stupid? Bathroom? Ugh, I really hate myself."
"Hey, it's not that bad. I'm sure Sirius doesn't mind." Mette looked up and saw Lily. Lily slowly walked over to her and put a hand on her shoulder.
Mette still looked a little embarrassed, but at least she had a little smile back on her face. "I'm not really used to boys giving me compliments."
"Oh well, Sirius sucks up to everybody. Especially if it's of the female gender." They looked at each other and fell into a big fit of giggles.
Later, when the Marauders came to their favorite spot near the lake, they all fell down over each other.
"Man! I'm tired. I can't wait until tonight. Quidditch time!" James immediately put his words into action and started snoring. Peter decided to follow his lead and also closed his eyes. Remus pulled out a book from beneath his robes and soon became absorbed in it. Sirius who was still brooding over a way to get back at Isa was deep in thought. So deep that he didn't notice a person climbing a tree near to the four Marauders.
Maybe I can sneak into the girl' bathroom. I can't use the staircase, it's hexed. Hey I'll just do what she did, climb in through the window. But how will I know when she is taking a shower? That's a good point my precious brain, good point. Now think.
Isa looked at the four boys from her new-found safe haven. Wow, that's one hell of a snore there. I pity his next girlfriend. Maybe I should warn that Evans girl about him. What is that Mr. Black smiling about. He's up to something. Yep, definitely up to something.
"Miss Christianson what are you doing in that tree. You could get hurt". Isa looked down and saw Professor McGonagall looking up at her.
"I'm sitting in it?"
"I see that, but what is the reason for you to sit in a tree?"
"I like trees." Isa saw that Professor McGonagall look rather confused about it.
Sirius had noticed that Professor McGonagall was talking to a tree. That's odd. I mean I knew she was weird, but this beats it all.
"Hey, Moony. Do you see what I see? McGonagall has finally lost it."
Remus looked up at Sirius and looked at where McGonagall was standing.
"You blind? I thought dogs had super-duper vision."
"What's that supposed to mean, Moony?"
"I can clearly see Isa Christianson sitting in it. Can't you?"
Sirius crawled over to where Remus was sitting, so that he was almost sitting on Remus' legs.
"Nope I don't see anything".
"I thought you only like girls, Mr. Black. And now I find you in this compromising position." Sirius looked up and saw Isa standing a few feet away. Then he looked down and saw his face was almost in Remus' crotch. At the same time Remus turned utterly red and pushed Sirius away. Both boys watched godsmacked as Isa walked back towards her sister and Lily.
I wish a had a camera, that would have been one great picture. Maybe I'll ask dad to send me a camera
"Isa do you want to join us? Lily is going to show me the Quidditch pitch."
"Okay, why not?" Isa followed Lily and Mette to the Quidditch pitch, trying to act casual. She didn't wanted the other girl to know that she loved Quidditch. What she wouldn't give to be on the national team of her country. It was a pity that she wasn't allowed to play at the moment. According to her father, grandfather, and Dumbledore, it wasn't safe.
When their lunch break was over, the Gryffindors made their way to the DADA-room. Their professor was nowhere in sight. There was a note attached to the blackboard. It was addressed to Remus. Remus grabbed the letter and opened it.
"It says that this year we will have to do independent study. Since we are six year students we should be able to behave more like adults. It also says that there will be a duel match at Christmas time in which the individual champions of each House duel each other. It says that this Dueling match will be held among the fifth-, sixth- and seventh year students. Only non-deadly hexes are allowed. They will be judged on style and originality."
Little did the students know that they where being watched by their DADA-teacher and his assistant from a distance. The mysteriously absent professor was a firm believer of independent study. This way the professor could shake the bad apples out of the tree.
That started a loud conversation amongst the Gryffindor students. While they were yelling at each other, the chalk on the blackboard started to write down the rules and some books they could use.
"SHUT UP!" Sirius roared at his fellow students. "Let Remus finish."
"Thanks, euhm, it says that we will start dueling each other in the next lesson. That means we're supposed to get going right now!"
There was a deadly silence in the Gryffindor common room as the sixth-year students were preparing for the next DADA lesson, almost forgetting their other homework. There was a fierce competition among James, Sirius, and Isa to become champion of their house. Remus was trying to help both James and Sirius but started to feel like a yoyo, as each one was demanding his attention.
The girls had agreed that they would hold a little tournament in their bedchamber to see who was the best duelist, and then they would help this person to become the house champion.
"We will teach those boys once and for all!" Jessica claimed.
"Yeah, we'll shrink Potter's big head," Lily added.
When they had finished their list of hexes, one by one the girls went up to their bedchamber.
"I'm going to hit the shower," Isa told her sister.
"I'll come up in a moment."
Sirius head came up at the word shower. He grabbed all his stuff together and ran towards his bedchamber.
"What has gotten into him?" James asked as he watched Sirius dash off.
"I dunno, maybe fleas?" Remus suggested.
Sirius ran into the boys' bathroom, tied a rope about his waist and climbed out of the window onto the ledge. He made his way to the girls' bathroom window. He loosened the rope and climbed in . As soon as his foot hit the floor he heard a scream:
"Get out you bloody pervert!" He looked up and saw Lily who was holding a towel in front of her.
"Euhm, I, ……, Euhm…"Sirius stuttered.
He strode unthinking out to the stairway and immediately a loud noise was heard and the stairs turned into a slide. At the bottom of the stairway Professor McGonagall was already waiting for him.
"Mr. Black, come with me right now." Sirius never had see her this angry. He knew he was in deep trouble. His three friends looked up from what they had been doing.
"He's in deep shit," James whispered to the others. They nodded in unison.
After one hour he returned to the Gryffindor common room. He looked really upset. He didn't look at his friends and went directly to his room. His friends thought it would be best to let him come to them. Otherwise he would be in a sour mood for the rest of the week. They couldn't have been more wrong.
Isa felt rather bad. She guessed that Sirius wanted to get back at her. She did mention that she was going to take a shower. She had wanted to get on his nerves but this was one step to far. She got up from her place near the fire and sneaked upstairs into the sixth-year boys' bedchamber. She found Sirius staring out of the window. He hadn't heard her coming in. But then she always had been good at sneaking; it was a family trademark.
"Sirius," she started. Sirius was startled by her voice. He turned and saw Isa standing near Remus' bed.
"What do you want?"
"I'll tell McGonagall that I made you do it as a bet." Sirius raised his eyebrow a little at that comment.
"What would you do that for? Don't flatter yourself, you had nothing to do with it," he snarled back at her.
"Okay. If that makes you happy, then that will be it. Thought I'd be nice for once, but since you don't need my help, I hope she makes you scrape the toilets clean with a toothbrush," she snarled back and left.
Now why did I have to do that? Sirius asked himself. I mean this could be my ticket out of detention and her in it. Why does she affect me the way she does? This really sucks.
Sirius jumped on his bed to let off some steam, kicking wildly into the air and almost landing on the floor. He had to grin about that one, good thing nobody was around to see that.
Ha, come see the great and wonderful Sirius Black make an ass of himself.
How can McGonagall make me stay with her during the next four weekends. Man this really sucks big time. I wonder what I'll have to do this time. I hope she won't make me clean the Quidditch outfits again.
The first week was coming to an end. Apart from Sirius being caught in the girls' bathroom, things had settled into a normal rhythm. People had adjusted to being back at school.
The girls had worked very hard on preparing their DADA lesson. After two sessions of hexing each other they came to the conclusion that Isa was the best amongst the girls. Of course Lily, Mette and Jessica also practiced the hexes because they would have to show them during the lesson, but they mainly focused on the simple ones. All of them tried to defend themselves against Isa. She would have them on their backs within the first few hexes. So by the end of the week, they were all black and blue.
"Auuw! Don't do the Expelliarmus Absolutus anymore Isa. It really hurts. Why don't you try some of the others?" Mette complained as she had landed on her ass for the tenth time that evening.
"Why try something different when this one is already successful?" Isa grinned back mischievously.
"Because Potter and Black have Remus's help, and he is one smart cookie!" Jessica butted in.
"Okay what do you suggest I do next then?"
"Maybe you could turn Potter bald, that would be a good one," Lily suggested.
"Or you could shrink a body part," Jessica said while wiggling her eyebrows.
"Ooh, I like that one," Isa whispered, the grin on her face turning wicked.
The girls continued to practice their hexes, but the boys weren't sitting still either. Up in their bedchamber, two boys faced each other, wands out, ready to strike.
"Rictusempra!" James yelled as Sirius ducked out of the way.
"Flavesco canarion!" Sirius yelled back and with that James turned into a giant yellow canary causing the boys to laugh out loud.
"Come on, Padfoot, make some use of the more serious hexes," Remus said, annoyed. He had spent the entire week looking up hexes and dividing them between his friends.
Sirius, however, managed not to use any of them but just experimented randomly. "Why? This is so much more fun." He was still laughing at the sight of James as a canary.
"Right. What use would turning someone into a canary be?" Peter asked carefully. He hadn't managed a decent hex all week.
"Okay, spoilsport, tell me which one to use."
"Maybe you could make the girls' skirts fly up over their heads?"
"Oh, that will be very useful in a life threatening situation, Wormtail," said Remus.
"We at least we will know which girls wanna have sex!" Sirius exclaimed.
All three boys turned towards Sirius looking rather puzzled.
"What has that got to do with anything?" James asked.
"Well if a girl has on black panties, she has every intention of showing them to someone." Sirius explained.
"Which bright light told you that, Padfoot? I mean I sometimes wear black undies but I don't intend to show them to anybody, yet." Remus asked
"Well Moony, I do."
"You do what?"
"I want show my black shorts to the girls."
"Eeeuww, you are really in need of help, my friend!"
"That's the only reason I wear black shorts."
Little did the boys that Isa had sneaked up hoping to learn what the boys were up to. She had heard the whole conversation and made plans to show Sirius' black shorts to the girls.
This should be interesting, he shouldn't have been so mean to me. I mean I could have kept him out of detention, but no, the stupid git wouldn't listen to me.
Isa managed to squeeze behind the open door as Peter left the room to get his books from the Common Room.
Mette had noticed her sister leaving again, so she decided to follow her.
What is she going to do in the boys' tower. I'm not going up there, we're not allowed to go up there. Oh well…Maybe if I'm really quiet they won't notice me.
As Mette turned to go up the staircase she bumped into Peter, who had run down to get his books from the common room.
"Hi Peter, I ….."
"You came looking for me. I knew it. Do you want to go somewhere with me?"
"Euhm, I think I mistook this staircase for the one of the girls. 'Bye."
As she tried to get down from the staircase, Peter grabbed her arm, pulling her into the common room. But he didn't stop there. He dragged her over to the portrait of the Fat Lady and out of the common room.
"I know this place where we can be alone."
Although Peter wasn't one of the biggest boys, he possessed a certain amount of randy strength, that enabled him to pull Mette along with him.
"Peter, I really don't think this is such a good idea. Let's just get back before we get detention for being out so late."
"No, it's okay. We won't get any detention. I'm sure of it."
"Peter I really don't want to go anywhere with you."
"But you came looking for me…."
"No, I wasn't. I just got confused about the staircases, so let's get back."
Peter tried to protest again, but Mette already said the password and the Fat Lady opened.
As soon as Peter had let go of her she ran back towards her bedchamber.
