Ellipsis at the end and start of speech are when the twins are talking.

Have fun reading!


Stepping out of the fireplace were three strangely dressed wizards. Draco was dressed in a frilly dress top and black trousers with a dicky bow looking like a street performer. Whist the twins wore wool jumpers with their initials on and very bright trousers. They looked at Harry and Harry looked at them. Harry was just in a normal top and jeans looking his friends up and down, trying to refrain a giggle. Noticing a chocked down giggle, Snape wondered what they were getting up to but as he entered he noticed why Harry was trying not to giggle. So he decided to make it worse.

"Misters Weasley, welcome to our home. Now may I ask why you are trying to blind us with your um… trousers. Ah, Mr Malfoy, do you not know that magic outside of school is illegal and I'm sure your father will not be pleased if you followed through with being a muggle street performer."

Harry was already on the floor laughing whilst, the three boys had turned an amusing shade of red. Seeing Harry laughing made Severus laugh as well and in turn made the three boys jump in a very scarred manner and led to even more time spent on the floor from Harry until the boys were clearly mortified. Then Snape thought it would only be fair to comment on the changes of clothes they had prepared for each boy upstairs, they had assumed this would happen and arranged clothes for them before hand. The boys took a while to get changed and then started yelling about a metal brick singing?

"Harry why does the metal in your house sing?"

"Yeah what charm did you use for that..."

"...We could use this sort of thing!"

Harry now thoroughly confused wandered up the stairs, trying to think if he left any active spells in his bedroom… When he got there he looked in and saw the two red heads picking up and prodding Harry's 'metal block' whilst Draco was trying to reach for the 'metal block' and inspect it for themselves and once again, Harry was pissing himself with laughter as the supposed 'metal block' was actually Harry's flip phone and one of his friends was ringing him. Taking a few steps forward, he grasped the phone, and answered the call with, "Hey Josh, is it alright if I call back later. The phone ringing and vibrating confused my nan so I need to explain to her it was and what I am doing!… Yeah I know! She's staring at me like I am crazy!… Really! I gotta go but I will definitely call you back now!… See ya Josh!" After finishing the conversation, he turned around and faced his three wizarding friends. They just stared at him as if he was mad as Harry had once again started to laugh at them. It was the twins who decided to finally decided to break Harry from his trance…

"Harry, mate, why did you start talking to charmed metal..."

"And why did you name it Josh? Awfully random..."

This just made Harry laugh even harder! After a good couple of minutes he had calmed down enough to explain what the 'singing metal block' was.

"Guys this is my mobile phone. It makes noise and vibrates when someone is trying to contact me. You were partially correct, we had to put some charms around it so my magic doesn't interfere with it. It took us ages but we found some that doesn't effect my magic or the electricity when I use it."

Draco finally joined the conversation, his horror struck look at his friends insanity finally fading, "But what is this 'mobile phone' thing and how does it work?" The twins seemed to agree with this question whilst Harry just stared at them, having no idea that the wizarding world was that ignorant of muggle technologies.

"A mobile phone is a portable communication device. When someone wants to talk to you, they put your number in then it sends a signal to a satelitte to the persons phone then they are connected and you can talk to each other… I don't really know how, but I think that's it. Forge, Gred, why don't you ask your dad? He does work with muggle stuff doesn't he?

"Well now that you say that Harry..."

"It doesn't sound like a bad idea..."

"Now Harry, an important question..."

"Very important indeed..."

"Where do we get one of those..."

"Mobile phone thingies?"

Even though Draco was getting a tad annoyed with their sentences, he fully agreed with the prospect of getting a mobile phone as they seemed much more efficient then owl mail and not as weird as other means of communication. They continued this conversation going down the stairs about mobile phones and met up with Snape in the front room. By now, they had concluded that they each had enough money for mobile phones on them and for ten pounds credit all that was left to do was to convince one Severus Snape to take them to the shops to get them. They had decided that Draco would be the best to convince him.

"Godfather?"

"You want something don't you?"

"Why ever would you say that?"

"You only call me godfather when you want something or when you have done something. Seeing that you lot are gathered at my house and have only been here thirty minutes I gathered you wouldn't have done anything requiring my input."

"Um yes, you are correct."

Seeing that Draco was losing the battle, and with the twins' ability of finishing each others sentences being very annoying to Snape, Harry thought it would be best to step in as he was more likely to win the battle and it being his birthday, would surely win him a few extra points.

"Sev, all they really want is to ask you a small favour."

"And what would that be?"

"Well all we really want is a short trip into the village centre as they have never been here before and would like to visit the town and some of the muggle shops. They brought some money with them and they have changed it into pounds before coming here. They are very prepared and if we don't teach them about muggle culture, who will? All of them are from pure-blood wizarding families, and they didn't have an idea about mobile phones!"

"Good argument, now tell me the real reason."

"They have about twenty-five pounds each and would like to buy some muggle technology as it is much more efficient then wizarding in some areas. Also, they knew that we would be taking them out for a meal laterbut they didn't know that we were paying so I suggested this as we still have three hours before the others arrive. Also, it would be weird if they didn't have much knowledge of muggle technology at a muggle party wouldn't it Sev?"

"True, but..."

"Great! So when are we leaving, we should really head off as soon as possible so we won't be late for my party!"

"… We will leave in ten minutes."

Snape walked off, murmuring under his breath about making someone too smart for his age, how was he going to survive in potions next year with his on in his class and sneaky Slytherin ass tactics. While Harry's friends just looked at him and somehow all at once they said, "You just out talked Snape!" All Harry could reply in that moment was, "The idiot brought me up! What else would you expect?" But still, all three of his friends were dumbfounded.

Exactly ten minutes later, they left for the shops. After arriving, they went in a few out of courtesy, the boys buying a few cheap things to keep suspicion off of their true tactics for coming to town. Then they went to the second hand technology shop and immediately, spotted cheap mobile phones for the three of them. While Snape was looking around the music isle, the boys brought the phones, sims and put money on their phones. When Snape returned, he noticed the bags and realised that he had indeed been schooled by his son. Even though they knew that they had been found out, they still acted as if they wanted to go around the shops and finally went to a sweet shop before heading back to Snape's house and somehow this shop had confused them the most.

First off was the newspapers and then it was the actual sweets. Draco went paler than he normally was at the sight of the newspapers and after several prods, unbecoming of a pureblood heir, he turned to interrogate Harry.

"Harry? The pictures aren't moving."

"No they are not."

"Why not? The people in pictures don't stay there all day, so why aren't they moving?"

"I don't know? They just don't in the muggle world."

"Are they forced to stay there?"

"I don't think so… I don't think that they are brought to life like wizarding photos. I think they are just stills of memories instead of being the memory… if that makes sense."

"Okay… I think."

Whilst this was going on, the twins had come back from the sweet isle, quite disappointed. They also heard this conversation and had picked up the newspaper to have a look for themselves. Their shock levels had gone through the roof and it seemed to be their turn to interrogate Harry.

"First we can't find any chocolate frogs or any Bertie Bott's beans..."

"Now the pictures don't move..."

"Guys that stuff is purely wizarding, please calm down, the store owner is giving us strange looks!"

"But Harry..."

"we don't understand!"

"You heard my conversation with Draco about the pictures,"

"Yes."

"Yes."

"Right, the sweets we have in the wizarding world are limited with their flavours as they are made differently and they do not have the charms to make moving sweets. Therefore you just have very basic sweets that are different and very sugary. Do you want me to show you some of my favourites?"

"Yeah we think..."

"that might be easiest!"

After these slightly weird conversations, Harry took all of them to the sweet isle and showed them his favourite sweets. In the end, they ended upcoming out with bars of Cadbury's chocolate and a few bags of normal jelly beans and Skittles. After a conversation with the shop keeper, they all relaxed and left, no longer receiving weird looks at his friends behaviour by simply saying that they are his friends from Ireland and they have different things there, knowing that the man had never been to Ireland and didn't know anything about it.

On the way home, Harry let out an exclamation as he had forgotten to phone his friend back. With that he quickly pulled his phone out and rang Josh. It turned out that he didn't need to as as they rounded the corner to their house, Josh was walking to their house. Harry called out and ran ahead to meet his friend and to introduce him to the three wizards behind him.

"Hey Josh! Sorry I forgot to phone you back, I had to pick up my friends from the train station."

"That's okay Harry! But I needed to ask you something in private."

"Okay, why don't we walk ahead and talk."

"Okay."

After notifying the party behind him about needing a private chat, he ran back to Josh and restarted their conversation.

"So, what did you need to talk about?"

"You know my cousin Hermione?"

"Yeah, I met her a couple of times when I came around yours."

"Well she is going to the same boarding school as you."

"Is she?"

"Yes and I finally know what your secret is as she told me what she was."

"And what was that?"

"A wizard Harry, you are a mother fucking wizard! Why didn't you tell me? I'm your best friend aren't I?"

"Yeah you are Josh! But we've always been told to keep what we are a secret so we don't get hunted down and targetted again. People are still scarred about the witch trials and if the news got out that witches and wizards are real, the person who caused it can go to jail."

"That's what Hermione said."

"Well she is Hermione, what would you expect?"

"That's why I'm not really mad at you!"

"Okay then, but I get that there is more."

"I know that you think she can handle herself, but look out for her can you. She still is an 'excitable' student and you know how that is."

"Yup!"

"Did I just hear the great Harry Potter say 'Yup'? Oh I must go and tell Sev."

"Oh no you don't!"

But Josh had already ran away and was close to Snape but Harry was not about to back down to a challenge! Picking up the speed, he was catching up to Josh. Josh noticing was beginning to shout to Severus, "HEY SEV, BET YOU CAN'T GUESS WHAT HAROLD JUST SAID! HE JUST SAID..." By that time Harry had caught up and had clamped his hand around Josh's mouth. He then decided to land Josh in it with Severus by saying, "Josh knows." This caused attention to turn onto Josh from the four people in-front of him. Seeing what they had just landed each other into, they ran off towards the house. Closely followed by the three boys and Severus using his Hogwarts stride.

Once the doors had shut behind them Severus started the interrogation.

"Josh how do you know?"

"Hermione."

"Did she indicate to herself as a muggle-born?"

"Yes..."

"Okay well you can tell her that you have met her potions teacher and some of her class mates."

All of the boys, including Harry, stood there shell shocked at how that played out. But not before facepalming at how Snape suddenly turned back to Josh saying, "Now what did Harry say?" Josh not being able to gather his wits quick enough just replied with, "Yep." That was all Snape needed to diffuse the tention.

"HADRIAN JAMES POTTER, IN WHAT UNIVERSE HAVE I TAUGHT YOU THAT IT IS OKAY TO USE DISPICABLE TERMS LIKE YEP?"

At this Harry was done. He was just done. So he sat there and came up with the best retort ever as it was his birthday and no way was he going to lose a verbal battle on his goddamn birthday.

"OY SEV MATE, DON'T TELL ME WAT WORDS I CAN AND CAN'T USE. I BELIEVE IN FREEDOM OF SPEECH INIT BRUV"

The wizarding boys in the room hit the floor laughing. The muggle boy just sat on the floor his eyes popping out of his head. The Snape in the room was turning into Rudolph the red nose reindeer. The Snape was also not going to back down so easily and he knew just how to make Harry angry.

"Sorry I couldn't understand you, you spoke like a chav."

"You did not just call me a chav."

"I believe I did. C. H. A. V."

"Oh BRUV if you believe that, just you wait."

"Wait for what?"

Snape was confused but Draco wasn't. He knew what was about to happen as he found the books about wandless transfiguration of clothes and had practised it with Harry. But Harry had seemingly taken it a step forward. Standing in-front of them, Harry had transfigured his clothes into what Snape had believed 'chavvy'. Blue tracksuited, flat capped and drenched in chains with HJP on, Harry stepped up to Snape and said, "What ya lookig at Bruv."

The boys were on the floor pissing themselves with laughter as the battle had reached it climax and Snape looked even paler than Draco had in the corner shop. The battle would have gone further if the door bell hadn't gone. Harry quickly changed back, finally introduced Josh to Fred, George and Draco and opened the door to let his other friends in.

After several hours with his mates from school and the three wizarding boys. They had successfully tired out Snape and booby trapped the whole house. The boys from Harry's school left around five with promises to keep in contact with the boy regardless if they kept the end of the bargain of sending more jokes down to them, designed by Harry and Fred and George. The three wizards had hit it off with the muggle boys and also promised to keep in contact. After an exchanging of phone numbers, the boys from Harry's school left leaving Draco, Fred, George and Josh and a very large tomato and cheese pizza.

Over the pizza, the boys bonded and educated each other somehow. By the end of the night, the boys had planned up to meet again and had successfully set up all phones and charms surrounding them. With goodbyes to all four, Harry sat down and rifled through the house looking for the animagus potion. After finding the potion on the bookshelf, he sat it down on the coffee table waiting for Snape to return to the living room.

After a few minutes filled with cleaning charms, Snape returned and saw that even though it was now eleven o'clock in the evening, Harry was still awake, excited and wanting to find out his animagus form.

"We aren't even going to talk about your great time today before you take the potion are we?"

"Nope."

"Okay then, down in one and this one has been refined to show a projection of what your form will be instead of turning you into it. If you had used one to turn yourself into the form, it would of hindered your actual transformation as you already possess the genetic material for it."

"Okay, here I go."

One eye roll later, a large midnight black wolf sat on the table. It had unique white markings that looked like antlers and for some reason, it had doe like eyes that were a bright emerald green. Harry of course loved the look of the animal as it was so unique that nobody would be able to name the species. Snape on the other hand, even though he though the animal was majestic, let out a moan of, "Only you!"
