Chapter Six
Hey guys, I'm not going to waste your time, here's chapter six!
Percy POV
The boys had woken in their dorms, as they had expected, and had gone down to the dungeons for Percy's best subject, which was Harry's worst. Potions. All four boys were dreading going to the potions classroom with the same Slytherins that knew their secret. Only two months until the second biggest secret of their lives was outed. Percy opened the door to the potions classroom and sat down by Fred, leaving Harry and George to suffer through on their own. as soon as the last Slytherin walked in, Professor Snape walked in, his robes were charred on the sleeves.
'He must've had Hufflepuff first-years,' Percy thought to himself. 'That just means more trouble for us Gryffindors, yay…' Taking a deep breath, Percy tuned into the instructions that Snape had begun. They would be making Skele-grow. When Percy looked back, he saw that Harry's face had paled, obviously remembering his past experience with this particular potion. Potions passed with few issues, as the Potter-Jackson twins had long since learned to put a shield around their cauldrons to prevent the potions from being sabotaged by Slytherins, and the occasional jealous Gryffindor. The snakes didn't even look at them, odd.
The first Friday of the year passed smoothly, unless you count reports of a Gryffindor first-year repeatedly setting things on fire in charms. Fred and George both thought it was hilarious, Percy agreed, Harry however would just smile and shake his head when they asked him about it. Tomorrow was the 'first' time they would be going to Hogsmeade least the first in the books… All four superstars were pumped to visit Zonkos, they were running low on supplies for pranks, after the prank war they had with the Hermes cabin, and they needed the magical advantage. Big time. That night was spent wandering the castle out of restlessness and setting up a few pranks at the Slytherin common room entrance, they were working on getting the password out of the Marauders for a secret passageway that led right into the Slytherin common room. They were close, they knew it was two words, and they words started with the letters 'M' and 'P' respectively. They finally made it back to their common room and fell asleep.
Harry's POV
PJW was walking down to Hogsmeade, well Harry and Fred were walking, George and Percy had conjured a sled made of ice, and were sliding past their fellow students, laughing and shouting. Harry wondered what they were going to hit first, a student or a building, he was staring up at the clear blue sky, when he heard a dull thud, looking down, he saw that the idiots had hit a fence and flipped over it. Laughing he and Fred jogged over to their younger brothers, only to trip over the icy sled. the four sat their laughing at each other. they eventually calmed down, got up, and headed to Honeydukes.
"Sweets!" Fred shouted, and leapt up in the air, Percy was already getting Chocolate Frogs and Bertie Bott's Every Flavour Beans, his favourites. As usual. George, who didn't have much of a sweet tooth, was just buying some cotton candy, charmed to taste like your favourite thing. Harry got a little of whatever sounded good. One candy splurge later the boys were in Zonkos. They split up, Harry looking at books full of prank spells, (an advantage of being at camp was that they could perform magic all they wanted because it was hidden by the gods, and since George could manipulate the Mist, they could mask any spells they performed out of school.) He decided on three books, 'The Wonderful World of Pranking' by Phil Yetterson, 'Spells to Cause Fun, Embarrassment, and More' by Jackson Overost, and 'Magical and Muggle Ways to Prank Your Friends' by Anna Erenda. Percy had got some trinkets that caused various issues, like having your pants fall down twice an hour, spewing out your most humiliating secrets every time you talked to your crush, and speaking in tongues for a week. Fred got a book, and some objects that could turn into anything, but every time you used it, your hair would turn a different colour, or just fall off altogether. George just got a little bit of everything. It was a good day, a good day indeed. that night, the boys finally completed a 'wrock' song. it was called 'Gryffindor Rally Cry' it was fun to sing and payed tribute to Harry's Quidditch epicness. He tried to get them to change it, but his sugar addled brain wasn't making very good arguments. So the song ended up the first in what they hoped would make enough songs to make an entire album from songs like this one, Percy and George sung it out loud, although they sounded drunk, so it was a bit funny.
"Today's the big game
The one we've been waiting for
We're ready
We'll represent the house flag of Gryffindor
We've gotta win
The Ravenclaws have got nothing on us
We'll defeat them and not even break a sweat
Now hear me
Today we meet our destiny
All together
Let's do this for Harry
So who are we fighting for?
Gryffindor, givin it all for the red and gold!
And who are we flying for?
Gryffindor, this is battle this is war!
So who are we fighting for?
Gryffindor, we're a force you can't ignore!
And who are we flying for?
Gryffindor, this is battle this is war!
On to the pitch now
Onward and upward
We're weightless
The sky is our home
And they are invaders
Today is ours
[Harry] will seek and [Wood] is the keeper
They're no match for scarlet fury
Now hear me
Today we meet our destiny
All together
Let's do this for Harry
So who are we fighting for?
Gryffindor, givin it all for the red and gold!
And who are we flying for?
Gryffindor, this is battle this is war!
So who are we fighting for?
Gryffindor, we're a force you can't ignore!
And who are we flying for?
Gryffindor, this is battle this is war!"
Harry hit them both over the head with his pillow, which sparked a pillow war that lasted until Fred almost broke Percy's framed drawing of the bandmates in the middle of a concert. It was then the four wizard-demigods decided to go to sleep to avoid Percy's wrath, they so didn't want to be his sparring buddies.
