Chapter 4: Halloween

It was Halloween night and the girls were just about ready to put their plan into action.

Victoire had been more then happy to help them. She was still holding a grudge towards James who had woken her up at 5 am saying she needed to get ready to go back to school. He was just being helpful right? The only problem was it was only July 1st.

So Victoire was only to happy to help the girls.

As the girls were setting up their prank, the boys, that is namely, Ablus and Scorpius had been hanging out together trying to get people to accept him as himself and not his dad.

James was furious and had confronted Albus one day between classes.

"Albus, what are you doing? That is our sworn enemy! The son of our father's sworn enemy! You shouldn't be making friends with the enemy!" He hissed.

"He is only the son of our father's enemy. That does not mean he is our enemy. Our father doesn't hate Scorpius. Besides, what did he ever do to you?" Albus hurried to catch up to Scorpius on their way to Defense Against the Dark Arts and shrugged off his confrontation with his brother.

Later that night as everyone was making their way to the Halloween Feast in the Great Hall, Diana walked up to the Albus and Scorpius.

"Hi, I'm Diana. I'm a friend of Rose's."

"I'm Albus, and this is Scorpius."

"Where is your brother? James, right?"

Albus shrugged his shoulders. "I haven't seen James since just before Defense Against the Dark Arts."

Diana nodded. "Do you think you will see him at dinner?"

"Highly likely, he never misses a meal."

"Rose was wondering if she could have a word with you a little later in there." Diana pointed to a door across the hall. "You and James. I'm sure Scorpius could come if he wanted to."

Albus looked thoughtful and replied, "Thanks, I tell Rose we'll meet her there then. See you later, Diana."

Then Albus and Scorpius continued onto dinner.

"Do you want to come Scorpius?"

He shook his head. "I don't think James likes me much. I don't think he would appreciate my company."

Albus didn't say anything but tried to switch the subject to the upcoming quidditch match that was against Slytherin.

Diana walked into the great hall and sat down with her friends giving them a thumbs up sign.

The plan was in motion.

During the feast an extremely old McGonagall stood and the school quieted down.

"Before you all dig into your pumpkin pie, I would like to announce that our gamekeeper Rubeus Hagrid is retiring. He will be staying here in his hut but the new gamkeeper, Corrin Lantion, will be taking over Hagrid's duties. So all of you please make his job a little easier for now, until he can get used to this job. Please don't mess with the whomping willow or go into the forbidden forest. and enjoy the rest of the feast. Thank you."

She sat back down and looked out over her school. She hoped the students would listen to her, as headmaster, and do as they were told.

James glanced at Albus from across the table and said, "Hagrid is retiring huh? Why don't we go down and visit him tonight."

Albus nodded and looked toward Scorpius.

James shook his head but Albus still intended to bring Scorpius.

All thoughts of Rose and his promise to meet her vanished at this new plan and only Scorpius remembered.

I guess I will have to go and meet Rose in that room to let her know James and Albus went to visit Hagrid.

He had no intention of going to see Hagrid later with Alus. He didn't like the look James was giving him now. He went back to his dinner and silently finished eating.

"I'm going up to bed, I don't feel like staying up very late tonight." Scorpius told Albus.

James brightened up at this. "Ok, Albus will see you later, or if you're a sleep by the time he gets back…I guess he will see you tomorrow."

Scorpius nodded and headed out of the great hall.

About twenty minutes later dinner was over and James and Albus stood looking up at the House Cup Points.

Suprisingly Hufflepuff was in the lead by about 10 points.

James had his wand out and was thinking of his fathers invisibility cloak upstairs.

"Accio invisibility cloak."

2 minutes later the boys were under the cloak and were rushing towards Hagrids hut.

Meanwhile upstairs the girls were waiting for the boys to show up. They were silently riding a few brooms in the air looking down at their mirrors. They were going to wait until the boys entered and were standing looking puzzled.

Then the plan would be set into motion.

Scorpius who had watched as the Gryffindors started filing in slipped out of the portrait hole and down to the room Albus had agreed to meet Rose in.

He opened the door and looked around. The girls didn't know who this was, but they couldn't wait for James, maybe Albus had come alone.

Diana, who was by far the best on a broom, zoomed down and shut the door locking it on her way back up into the air.

The boy had seen her out of the corner of his eye and looked up just as the girls began dropping portable swamps from Rose's Uncle's joke shop, Weasley's Wizard Wheeze, and dung bombs on Scorpius.

Suddenly Diana shouted out, "STOP!! It's not them."

The girls stopped and looked down.

We should've known the blonde hair didn't belong to any of them but…we had already set the plan in motion. Thought Calli.

Coming down from the ceiling towards Scorpius she waved her wand to clean up the room and opened the door.
