~*~ I'm back! The switch is coming up, I promise. If you haven't noticed,
it's kinda part songfic. From here forth, I'm going to put in a little
scene of the family before where the movie left off. Like in the last
chapter. If you've got an idea of a little sketch (as they call it) to
throw in, such as Fred and George arguing over something and end up
throwing popcorn at each other, PLEASE tell me! It's not that I don't have
any ideas, I just think it's fun to associate the readers with my story.
Thanks to everyone who reviewed! I never thought one of MY stories would
get so many reviews! ~*~

"Fred, George? There's been something I wanted to ask you."
"Yes Mum?"
"When did you go to Aspen? Or to America for that matter?"
The twins exchanged nervous looks. "Uh, never?"
"Fred!"
"He's right, Mum!"
"George!"
"What?" they said in unison.
Mrs. Weasley sighed. "On with the movie." Both twins let out a sigh of relief.
"Name suits it though," Ron mumbled.
"RONALD WEASLEY!"
"Just joking!"

"What are you cooking, Mum?"
"Cookies, Ginny."
"What kind?" Ginny peered over her mother's shoulder.
"Fortune Cookies." Mrs. Weasley answered. Ginny made an attempt to taste the batter, but her mother caught her. "Sorry dear, these are *special* cookies." Ginny frowned and walked out of the kitchen just as Ron came in. "Don't even *try* to taste the batter," she said hastily as she passed her brother. Ron shrugged and walked up to Mrs. Weasley. "Hello, Mum." Mrs. Weasley started. She automatically reached for a lid and covered the pot on the stove. "Ron, what's wrong?" she asked realizing the exasperated look on his face. He handed her the letter from Hogwarts. "What do you make of this?" he questioned. She read it and froze on the spot. "Mum?" Ron tried to get her out of the state of shock. Mrs. Weasley recovered and flung her arms around his neck. "Oh, Ronnie! This is wonderful! You may be Head Boy! Just like Percy." Ron pulled away, his eyes wide. "That's a *bad* thing." Mrs. Weasley's smile turned to a frown. "Now Ron, your brother was very successful." "That and he's the worlds biggest git."
"Who is?" Fred and George walked in. Ron was about to say Percy, but his mother nudged him hard in the ribs. "What's this?" George took the letter off the counter and read it. His face broke out into a grin. "Oi, Fred! Read this!" He handed the parchment to his twin. His face also broke into a grin. Then the two said in unison, "Just like our dear older brother, Percy." Ron scowled. Fred and George walked off sniggering, and he rolled his eyes.

Percy sat at the dining table, across from Ron. He read the "Daily Prophet" while Ron ate breakfast. The rest of the family was elsewhere. Ron finished his toast and sat silently for the next couple of minutes. Percy folded the morning paper and set it on the table. The brothers stared at each other for some period of time. Percy took his cup and filled it with coffee. Ron broke the silence. "You know, I've been considering getting my ear pierced and getting a fang earring like Bill." Percy choked in mid-gulp of his coffee. He coughed, and said, "Not while I'm here, you won't." Ron reached into his back pocket and pulled out his wand. "Would you like me to clarify that?" Percy snatched the devise out of his brother's hand. "No." He threw it behind him, only to be caught by Fred and George as they passed by. "Hey!" Ron yelled running after them as they went up the stairs. Percy took another sip of coffee.
~*~*~*~
After dinner, Percy went up to Ron and Ginny. "I think you two should wait for the school year to start practicing for Quidditch." The two stared at him in disbelief. No practicing over the summer? Percy went up to his bedroom and Ron followed. "Why not?" he asked. "I don't believe flying here is safe. I honestly think that the school grounds is the safest place to practice." "I *need* to practice to improve my skills!" "I still say that this place isn't the best place to practice." "Well, sorry if this isn't the perfect place to practice!" "Nothing's perfect." "Oh yeah? Your whole life is perfect! You had perfect grades in school, perfect job, perfect girlfriend--" "Woah, hold it! If you *think* my life is *perfect*--" "THINK? I KNOW your life is perfect!" Ron's voice was rising. Percy stood up. "My life, or anyone else's for that matter, is NOT perfect!" Ron shook his head. "Then why can't you stay out of mine?" he said quietly. Percy choked and sat back down. Ron struck a nerve. He was about to say something, when Mrs. Weasley walked in with a tray holding two items. "Cookies?" she asked. "Mum, this isn't a good time," Percy stated. Mrs. Weasley shook her head. "No, this is a very good time. These cookies put you in a better mood." Ron and Percy each took one. Their mother turned and left with a broad smile across her face that neither of the brothers saw. Ron scowled at Percy and also walked out the door and up to his room. Percy followed so he could try to apologize. He passed by Fred and George's room and was about to say something, but his feet were pulled out from under him, and he slammed on his back. A rope was tied around Percy's ankles and was pulled up until he was hanging two feet off the ground. He was caught in a trap. "FRED! GEORGE!" he yelled at the top of his lungs. The twins opened the door of their room, sniggering. "Get me down this instant!" "Sorry, I'm afraid we can't do that," Fred said with a would-be innocent voice. "Why not?!" Percy was furious. The two high-tailed it downstairs, leaving their brother hanging. Percy took out the fortune cookie. Meanwhile, Ron, who was sprawled across his bed, also took out his fortune cookie. Without knowing it, they both cracked them open at the same time, and read it in unison.
~*~*~*~
A journey soon begins, that's prize reflected in another's eyes.
On what you see is what you lack, then selfless love will change you back.
~*~*~*~
At that very moment, the rope holding Percy snapped, and he fell on his head. "OUCH!" he hollered, rubbing his head.
Ron heard the yell, and was about to see what happened, when the ground shook fiercely. "Earthquake!" He jumped back onto his bed and covered his head with his pillow.
Percy got up, ran into the twin's room, jumped on Fred's bed and did the same.
About as suddenly as it started, it stopped.
Ron got up and changed into his pajamas. He slipped under the covers. "Blimey, that was *strange*."
Percy pulled the pillow off his head and walked into his own room. He changed, got into his bed, and placed his glasses on the nightstand. "I'm glad today's over."
~*~ Fourth chapter done. Yay! Well, since you've all been good readers, I'll give you a special treat. Here's a sneak peak at one of the outtakes. And yes, it's from a scene in this chapter. Hope you like it! ~*~

Percy snatched the devise out of his brother's hand. "No." He threw it behind him, but instead of Fred and George catching it, it broke through the window. Percy dropped the cup, and spat the coffee across the tabletop. He turned his head to view the damage. He twitched, then turned to Ron. "If Mum asks, Fred and George did it." Percy nervously unfolded the newspaper and pretended to read it.
~*~ How was that? Don't forget, if you've got an idea for one, please tell me! Please Review!!!! ~*~
