November had turned into December very quickly. Harry, Ginny, Tom, Jerry, Neville, and Luna searched the Hogwarts library for Nicholas Flamel for days and only came out empty handed. And they didn't want to risk asking Madam Pince about it because they were worried Quirrell might hear them.
All that was left to search in was the Restricted Section. And they knew they can't go in because only older students with permets studying advance Defense Against The Dark Arts were aloud in. Even if they wanted ask a teacher for a permet, it won't work.
Fortuntly for Harry, he heard that Ginny, Neville, and Luna had signed up to stay at Hogwarts with him for the holidays. All the Weasley kids were staying because Mr. and Mrs. Weasley were going to Romania to visit Ginny's older brother Charlie who was studying dragons. Ron on the other hand chose to go with Hermione for her parents were gonna go skiing and he was eeger to learn how muggles do that.
"I do feel sorry." Malfoy said to the six in the Great Hall. "Sorry for all those who have to stay at Hogwarts because they don't fell welcome at home!"
"MR. MALFOY!" Shouted Professor Snape. "There will no teasing of other students unless you wish to stay in school and spend detention for the holidays."
Malfoy was worse then usile after the Quidditch match. Thoue Slytherin lost, he was trying to make everyone laugh on how a Wide Mouth Toad can replade Harry in the next match. The six just ignored them as they finished their dinner. Harry was lucky nobody found it funny as they were impressed that Harry managed to stay on his lucky broomstick.
The The Great Hall and the Dormitories were kept warm from their fire places, the corridors were freezing cold and Professor Snape had to use a warming charm to keep his class from getting too cold to croud themselves up in front of their cauldrons. Including Harry sense his solid gold cauldron was the warmest.
One morning after everyone else went home, Hogwarts woke to find itself covered in sevrel feet of snow. The black lke froze solid. And Fred and George were punished for bewitching many snowballs so they can follow Quirrell around.
"It's too bad icky Ronikens chose to go with his brainy princess." Said Fred as he and George laughed when they entered the common room.
Harry and Tom and Jerry and their friends were having too good of a time to think about Flamel. Save for Fred and George and Percy, they had the whole common room to themselves and got to the good arm chairs and couch by the fireplace.
At times, Tom and Jerry still got on their chase seanes and Harry had to stop them before they could even wrek the school or kill themselves.
Ginny and Neville and Luna also tought Harry and Tom and Jerry how to play wizard chess. It was the same as muggle chess. Except the figgers were alive and the player had to tell them where to move. Like diracting troops in battle. Wehn they take other figgers places, they will attack the figgers and smash them. When the game is over, the figgers rebuild themselves and return to their starting points.
Ginny's set was old and batter like everything else in her family sense they all belonged to someone else. That being her grandfather. Ginny and Neville and Luna knew the peaces so well they can get them to do what they wanted. Harry and Tom and Jerry on the other hand, weren't good players yet and the figgers kept shouted confusing advice at them.
Like right now in a game they're having with Ginny.
"Don't send him. We can't aforid to lose a knight." Said a pawm. "Send him. We can aforid to lose him."
Tom got so frusterated that he slammed the chess board and peaces onto the floor.
"I prefer Muggle chess of this." He said.
But the moment the figgers rebuild themselves, they all jumped onto Tom and attacked him.
"Ah! Hey! Yah! Oh! Aw! Oof!"
"Now that's way too funny to pass on." Said Jerry.
"You're...ow...not...ugh...helping!"
"How do you stop them?" Harry asked.
"Symple." Ginny said as she pulled out her wand. And with a wave (Harry didn't catch the incantation) the figgers stopped attacking Tom and returned to their starting points.
"Thanks." Tom said as he picked up his fallen wiskers. "Good thing I know to keep balince when I lose my wiskers."
"Right." Said a very annoied Jerry.
On Christmas morning, Harry and Tom and Jerry awoke early for the fun and food. But not excpecting presents sense the Dursley's hate them. Sense Harry took Tom and Jerry in, they remember seeing how Dudley gloted for having presents and not Harry.
Just as they got down to the common room, they saw Ginny and Neville and Luna waiting for them.
"Merry Christmas guys." Said Neville. "Come on. Your presents are waiting."
"We got presents?" The three asked as they ran down to the tree that was put up by the house elves working at Hogwarts.
"What were you expecting? A pack of carrets?" Ginny asked giggling.
Harry started with the top parsle in which was from Hagrid. And it was, a flute that Hagrid had carved himself. As Harry played it, it sounded like an owl.
Surprisenly, the next present was from Vernon and Petunia. And it was 50 pees. Harry asumed they gave it to him because it was supposed to be useless in the wizarding world.
"What are these?" Neville asked.
"Muggle money." Said Jerry. "Gringotts can convert knuts, sickles, and galloans to pounds."
"You don't say." Said Ginny.
"You can have it." Said Harry. "I have the wizarding wallet I got at Gringotts."
"Oh no." Ginny fake paniced. "I told Mum you didn't expect any presents."
Harry laughed as he opened his next present which was all lumpy. It was an emerald green sweater with his ignitile on it. H. Tom and Jerry also got their own sweaters from Molly Weasley. It amazed Jerry how she made him a mouse size one. Tom's was purple with a yellow T and Jerry had a black one with a yellow J. They also had gotten fudge from her. Even Neville and Luna got their own sweaters.
"Mrs. Weasley makes us sweaters every year." Said Luna.
"Ron always gets maroon." Said Ginny.
"It's really nice of her." Jerry said as he had some of the fudge which was really teasty.
Ginny had maroon as well with a G on it. Neville had an orange one with an N on it. And Luna's was brown with a L.
Their next presents also cantained candy and a large box of chocolate frogs which came from Ron and Hermione. Of course, Hermione left a note saying not to eat too much for they can rot their teeth. Also saying that she told them that because her parents are dentests.
The only parcle left for Harry was blue as he unrapped it.
"What is it?" Harry asked as he pulled out a silver cloth.
"Some kind of cloak I guess." Said Neville. "Try it on."
But the moment he did, his body vanished as only his head was shown.
"Wow." Said Ginny.
Harry then looked down.
"My body's gone!"
"I know what that is." Said Luna. "It's an invisibilaty cloak."
"Harry's invisible?" Tom asked.
"Who sent it?" Jerry asked.
Harry looked at the parcle it was in but only found a note.
Your father left this in my presition before he died. It was time it was returned to you. Use it well.
"It doesn't say who it's from." Said Harry.
"You and me both." Ginny said as she pulled out another note. "Somebody's trying to tare us apart. Read this."
Harry took the note and read it.
You're not safe! You will never be safe as long as you hang around Harry Potter! You must leave his side or you will die! You have been warned!
"Really?" Harry asked. "Who sent this?"
"Probily Malfoy." Said Tom.
"I dought even Malfoy would do something like that." Said Jerry.
"Of course he would!"
"No he wouldn't!"
"Guys it's Christmas. Try not to start a fight for at least one day." Said Harry as he put the cloak back in the parsle.
"He's right you know." Came Percy's voice as he walked in with Fred and George in tow.
"Hey look Perce. Harry and Tom and Jerry and Neville got Weasley sweaters too." Said George.
Fred and Geroge had blue ones. One had a yellow F and the other a G.
"Oh no." Jerry faked paniced now. "How are we gonna tell which one is Ginny's when you wash them?"
"Good one little Jerr Bear." Said Fred. "Mum makes a good efert though if you're not family."
"At least until I become family." Said Harry as he looked at Ginny blushing.
"Oh my. Dear brother of mine. It seems that Harry Potter has fallen for our dear sister." Said George.
"Alright Ginny. You know you're not old enough for that like mum said." Said Percy.
"Relaxe. We haven't done any of that romance stuff." Said Harry. "Well, not yet anyway."
"Ron never has a letter on his sweater." Said Fred. "But we never need ours. We know we're called Gred and Forge."
"Well Gred." Said Neville. "Maybe I can tell you and Forge that I feel the same way with Luna."
"Do you?" Luna asked amazed at what Neville had just said.
"Excactly what Tom and I suspected after the...you know what." Said Jerry.
"What?" Percy asked
"Trust me you do not wanna know that." Said Tom.
"What is the you know what you're talking,"
"I think this whole prefect thing is getting too much for you." Said Forge. "Go on and get your sweater on now. P for prefect. We all got ours on."
"I don't want."
The twins forced the grey sweater over him.
"And no sitting with the prefects." Said Gred. "Christmas is a time for family."
They then grabbed him and took him from the room to the boys dorms.
"Well it's true." Said Harry.
"That you've fallen for me?" Ginny asked.
"Why wouldn't I? You, Luna, and Neville seen me who I am. Not just The Boy Who Lived."
The moment he said that, Ginny ran and tackled him and they fell and rolled on the floor laughing.
"That went much better than I thought." Said Tom.
"Hey. I have an idea." Said Jerry.
"What is it?" Harry asked as he and Ginny got back to their feet.
"The Invisbilaty Cloak."
"What about it?" Neville asked.
"We still need to work on who Nicholas Flamel is. But now that we have the cloak,"
"I get it." Said Luna. "The cloak can get us into the Restricted Secton."
"Hold on." Said Harry. "It doesn't look big enough for all of us to fit."
"Isn't there a spell to change the size?" Ginny asked.
"I did read about that. It's not that hard. Engorgio is the spell to grow and Reducio is used to srink."
"Shrink it Harry. I'll go myself." Said Jerry.
"You? In the library alone?" Tom asked laughing.
"Trust me, Filch and the prefects won't find me sense I'm small enough."
"If you say so." Harry sighed.
