Chapter Twenty-Five

Voldemort Triumphant

"Let's party!" said Colin before turning on the radio full blast.

"What are we partying about again?" asked Hermione.

"Do we need a reason?" asked Fred.

"And speaking of reasons," said George, "would I interest anyone in some party favors?"

"I'd love some!" said Dumbledore. "What's a farty favor?"

"That's party favor Dumbledore," said Fred.

"Oh! That makes much more sense!"

"I'll have some!" said Ron.

"That will be twenty sickles," said George.

Ron looked in his bag. "Darn! I don't have enough."

"Here Ron," said Harry as her reached into his bag. A strange look came over his face. "What the-?" Harry pulled a dead mongoose out of his bag. "Who put this here?"

Nagini slithered up. "He Harry, could you buy me some party favor-AHH!!!"

"No! It's not what it looks like!" said Harry quickly.

"Oh my gosh I'm gonna die! I'm gonna die!" cried Nagini as she slithered around in circles.

"How could you Harry?!" asked Fred angrily.

"Yeah Harry, How could you?!" asked Dumbledore. "What did you do exactly?"

Harry held up the mongoose. Dumbledore started freaking out.

"AHH!!! I'm gonna die! I'm gonna die!"

Dumbledore started running around in circles screaming. Voldemort walked in.

"What's going on here?" asked Voldemort.

Ron sniffled. "Why don't you ask Harry!"

Voldemort turned to Harry.

"No idea." said he.

"How could you Harry?!" said Voldemort. "I thought we weren't going use the mongoose."

"But-but-but I-"

"There is no excuse!" cried Voldemort.

"I-I... well umm... er... you see-" stuttered Harry.

"Come on Nagini," said Voldemort.

Nagini was still going round in circles with Dumbledore. Voldemort reached into his pocket and pulled out a ball.

"Ooh look, a ball!" said Nagini and Dumbledore together.

"Come along now," said Voldemort.

Nagini and Dumbledore started to follow Voldemort. Colin stopped Dumbledore.

"It's so good to be home!" said Nagini to Voldemort as they ate some of Snape's cookies.

"Yes, It's good to have you back," said Voldemort as he dipped a cookie into some milk and took a bite.

"Harry never let me eat any cookies."

"That meanie!"

"Yeah!" said Nagini. "And I almost would have still been friends with him if he hadn't turned that mongoose on me!"

Voldemort chuckled to himself. "What a jerk! So you wouldn't be upset if I were to try to kill him?"

"Oh no. Not at all. Just as long as I don't have to eat him! I don't think I could eat a jerk like him!"

"Don't worry about that. From now on you only have to eat muggles if you want to."

"Really?!" asked Nagini.

"Really!" said Voldemort.

Snape burst into the room. "Don't eat those cookies! They're for the bake sale!"
