A/N: hey everyone! Okay its time for the shameless plug, read: After the
Fire by Naki, she gave me the plot idea, so there ya go! Oh yea please
review!
It was a windy day when Ron, Hermione and Harry walked through the cobbled streets to Lingwit's. They were all glad it was the weekend, classes had been horrible. First, a venomous tentactula had tried to take a bite out of Harry's shoulder, then in transfiguration, Seamus had turned his bag into an English sheepdog, drool was still on half his books. And for a grand finally, Snape had tested them on the same Gravity-Defying Potion and this time Neville had messed it up again, causing the entire class to sink five feet into the floor. Harry's mind however, was on the upcoming Quidditch match,
so he was surprised when they finally got there. It was a shabby looking building with an old rusty sign that read
Lingwit's Fine Costume Wear
Established 1243
So they entered the building, and to Harry's surprise there were no clothes in there, actually there was basically nothing, except for small gold pouches with tags that where all over the store. Harry and Hermione were bewildered.
" Um Ron, unless I don't eat anything for a month, I'm not sure I can fit in to one of these" Harry held up one of the gold pouches.
" I've never been one for dieting myself" said Hermione
Ron laughed and said "Harry just read the tag, you prat"
Harry and Hermione both looking quite puzzled read the tag:
Green Mermaid:
Simply open the bag over your head for costume.
The other bags all had similar tags, and for the next half hour they went about finding them, they even saw ones like dragon dung and Peppermint Humbug, Harry decided on Seeker, he thought it was appropriate. After, they decided to go to Three Broomsticks. " Ahh Butterbeer would be nice about now, I'm hungry anyway" said Ron.
" When, may I ask, aren't you hungry?"

A few minutes after Harry had left, Ginny walked in. She looked around the store, not really finding anything that would catch Harry's attention. Although she did have quite a laugh at 'Flobberworm'. Then she found it, the one she knew would catch Harry's attention, 'Golden Snitch'.
Oh yes Ginny, get that, Harry'll certainly notice if your a snitch, that's all he cares about anyway
~No, that is so unfair, I just like the color gold
Yea, just keep telling yourself that
~Well.... Hey you know he might "catch me" and then fall madly in love with me
Yep, and then Hagrid will replace his skrewts with fluffy kittens.
~ You never know!
Know what? That your imagination is way to active?
Don't burst my bubble!
Oh I won't do that no matter how naive and unrealistic and-
Oh just shut up!
So she bought the pouch with a grin on her face and walked out the door, giggling despite herself.
