Tonks p.o.v
For our first prank, we decided to put a potion in the drink that changed the drinkers hair the color that they despised the most. It would change every once in a while and wouldn't wear off for a month. There was no counter curse. Originally, the potion was just to change the person's hair pink, but we altered it to make it change every once in a while. We had decided to pull off the prank tonight at dinner. And since the goblets never ran out, they could pretend to drink and nobody would notice.
Another good thing about the potion, is that it doesn't activate until you go to sleep so the person wakes up and has different colored hair. This was going to be awesome. Lupin had helped us come up with the prank so he knew not to drink. We knew the twins were going to pick Sirius because he played more pranks then Lupin. But Lupin was the brain behind the operation so he had more experience. "Hey Lupin, how are we going to get the potion into the goblets?" I whispered. "I help with the drinks at dinner. I'll put it in then. But try not to look too obvious. The twins and Sirius will know if you look weird." Lupin whispered back.
I nodded and went to find Harry. Lately he had been dubbed as my partner in crime. Nobody knew how true that was except Lupin. He was outside on his firebolt I had gotten him for Christmas. I grabbed mine and went to join him. "Hey Harry, I bet I could get the snitch before you." I called up to him. "Yeah right. I bet you ten galleons you couldn't." he snorted. "You have a deal." I said. "Hey Lupin!" I yelled. He came out looking annoyed. "What?" he questioned. "Me and Harry are having a contest to see who can catch the snitch faster. Can you let it out?" I asked. He nodded and went to get the snitch.
"Ready to get your but kicked, little man?" I asked Harry, grinning. "Nope. I will win if it takes all night." he replied back. Little did we know then that Fred and George had charmed our brooms to go crazy whenever we used them. "Are you guys ready?" Lupin called up to us. I nodded. I didn't notice that the whole family had come out to watch us. We waited until the snitch had disappeared before we took off after it.
It took a few seconds for me to see the golden blur in the sky. Harry noticed it a second after I did. We both raced after it and almost had it until our brooms went beserk. Mine started to try to buck me off while Harry's started to spin in circles. "Whoa!" I yelled, trying to get my broom steady. It reminded me of Harry's first Quidditch game and that professor Quirrel had jinxed his broom. "F-F-Fred and G-G-George jinxed the b-b-rooms!" I cried out. Sure enough, Fred, George and Sirius were laughing they're butts off. Harry's broom stopped spinning and started to buck like mine was. Lupin was desperately trying to stop the bucking, but the brooms wouldn't stop. "I s-swear I'm g-ganna k-kill them!" Harry cried. We were both only hanging by one hand and I had a feeling we weren't going to be able to hold on long. Sirius Orion Black! I am going to murder you when I get down there!" I screeched. I know Fred and George put the curse on the broom, but it was Sirius's idea. He knew we would have to use them after a while.
I was able to pull myself on my broom again when it started to spin. My glasses flew off and I couldn't see. "Bloody hell!" I cursed. I was getting nauseated from the spinning. I was surprised I was able to not barf everywhere. Harry's broom was spinning too. Somehow, he was able to hold on. Finally, our brooms stopped spinning and we lowered ourselves to the ground. As soon as we touched the ground, we both ran blindly to some bushes and puked our guts out. I stood up shakily. "You-you bloody idiots! I swear, you are lucky Harry didn't get hurt or I would've murdered you. Merlin, you're lucky I don't kill you for doing that!" I snapped.
I pulled out my wand and got our glasses back. "Here." I said, handing Harry a pair of glasses. I put them on and they were crooked. "Wrong pair." I said, grabbing my glasses from him while handing him his glasses. "Well, as much as I hate to admit it, that was a pretty good prank." I summoned the board I had made. It said Weasley on the right side and Potter on the left side. I waved my wand and a large '1' popped up under the Weasley side.
"Well, we knew you would use your broom first." Sirius said. "Gits." I muttered. "Can I ask what the board is for?" Mrs. Weasley asked. "Just a little competition we're having." I said, waving it off. Mrs. Weasley looked a little angry. "Well, dinner is almost ready. You guys better go get cleaned up." she said. I turned to Harry. "You know, those stupid brooms just made your hair stick up worse." I said. "It did the same to yours." he said.
I grabbed my broom and we took them to our room. I took our scoreboard and hung it up on the wall. Then I put a charm on it, like the one that's used for points at Hogwarts, so every time somebody does a prank, it puts a point up. And whenever it put a point up, it started to flash and make a beeping sound.
Finally, dinner was served. We sat down and ate quickly. Dinner went by without a hitch and soon, everybody was off to bed. Harry and I walked to the room we shared and got into bed. "Harry, grab my arm." I whispered. As soon as he did, I apparated us into the twins room. "So, you guys did a good job today." I said grudgingly, plopping myself down on Fred's bed. "Yeah, except for the part about trying to get us killed." Harry muttered. "Yeah, those brooms weren't going to kill you." Fred said. "We were at least thirty feet in the air. If we would have fell we would have splattered. So don't say it wouldn't have killed us." Harry said. "Oh, whatever. But we're still ahead of you. You haven't performed any pranks yet." George said. "I wouldn't be so sure about that." I said grinning. They looked at each other with horror. "The only time you could have done something is at dinner….I knew the pumpkin juice tasted funny!" they yelled together. Footsteps were heard coming up the stairs. I grabbed Harry and apparated our room.
"The looks on their faces was priceless!" Harry cried. "Yep, now lets go to sleep so we can see everybody tomorrow." I said. We went to sleep waiting to see the looks on everybody's faces when they saw their hair in the morning.
Hope you liked it!
