Chapter Nine
The next few days at Hogwarts were extremely boring. Classes were cancelled for three days, because Madame Pomfrey and Professors Sprout and Snape had finished a potion that would prevent people from catching Contenu Imation. People started taking the potion as soon as there was enough for everyone. Unfortunately, the side effects of the potion were not very much fun. Most people passed out as soon as it was in their system. Although they were immediately revived, they became groggy and tired for quite awhile. Some people vomited (this one was the worst because they would have to take the potion again, because some of it left their body as they threw up. And sometimes, they would have to take it multiple times until their stomach could handle it.) A few other side effects were nausea and fatigue. Because of all of the side effects, the next three days were canceled. Those days were not too much fun though, because everyone had to stay in their beds. (Except for to go to the bathroom and take showers and stuff) The people who could leave their beds were allowed to go down stairs for meal times, but for those who were to weak to get out, they got breakfast, dinner, and lunch trays sent up to them, thanks to the house elves. "This is so boring!" Fred exclaimed. He was one of the few people at Hogwarts who was not effected by the potion at all. George nodded in agreement. He was one of the people who passed out as soon as he took the potion. He was tired for a couple hours, but now, he had taken the potion a day earlier, and he felt perfectly fine. "We still have today and tomorrow until classes begin!" as he said that he pulled his covers over his face, "I can't believe I actually *want* school to start again!" "I have an idea!" Fred said suddenly, "Let's leave!" "What!?" exclaimed George, "Leave Hogwarts? And do what? Live in Hogsmeade all by ourselves?" Fred laughed, "Not Hogwarts, lets leave the room and do some exploring. Nobody comes in here except for the house elves." "Okay," said George, "But lunch is in twenty minutes, and Lee might tell someone that were gone," he said, nodding to the sleeping boy in the bed next to his, "So lets leave as soon as we get back from lunch. Then we can tell Lee and the other boys so they can give us back up if some teacher decides to come in." The next twenty minutes flew by. The twins tried to decide what to do outside of their rooms, but no good ideas came to them.
"We could get some water from Hagrid's house," Fred suggested. "Again?" said George dryly. They had done that plenty of times, and it was quickly becoming very boring. "Lets do something new and more daring," said George, "We could set off Dungbombs in the corridors." "I suppose." said Fred, "or we could try to find the kitchens. Or maybe we could go out by the lake." They ran through a few possibilities until it was lunchtime. They sat down at the great hall next with Lee, Alicia, Katie, and another Gryffindor in their year named Landon Hosbrook. Angelina was too sick to come down, as were the two other boy-Gryffindors. "I feel so sorry for Angelina," said Katie sadly, "She has been feeling ill all day. I however, am perfectly fine. And so are Alicia and you boys. I can't imagine sleeping through our off days. Alicia and I have secretly been plotting revenge." At that moment, Fred did something that no one else had done before. he interrupted Katie while she was talking. "Revenge?" he said, "Revenge on whom?" Katie glared at him, "Maybe if you listen to me, you would find out!" she snapped.
Fred, George and Lee snickered as Katie scowled. "Anyway," she said, "as I was saying before I was so RUDELY interrupted.," she paused for a dramatic effect while everyone around her rolled their eyes, "We need to get revenge on the Quidditch team. We know now that we should have made the team, thanks to Lee, for eavesdropping on the boys." "Maybe we could put some of that truth potion stuff in their drinks," suggested Alicia, "than everyone will know why we didn't make the team." Landon Hosbrook cleared his throat, "Maybe you guys should just drop the whole thing," he said. Katie stared at him, "You obviously don't understand, but I have been looking forward to Hogwarts all my life! I have been waiting and waiting to come here and play Quidditch and learn every spell there is! I have practiced Quidditch everyday of my life!" "Well did you ever think that the people who made the team this year have been waiting longer than you have? Only seventh years made it, and this is their last year. Also, I heard that Oliver was really fair when it comes to tryouts, and he begged the other members to let some first years on the team," Landon said. "Well, I am still mad," Katie said stubbornly, "I really wanted to make the team."
"And next year you probably will. A lot of second years usually make the team. At least that's what my sister Kathy told me," Katie took a sip of pumpkin juice, "I don't care. I still want revenge." Alicia and Fred nodded in agreement to Katie, but George knew that Landon made some points. He just wasn't going to let anyone know he thought that way. When lunch was over, Everyone headed back to the dorm rooms. Lee and the others were asleep when Fred, George, and Landon entered the room. Landon plopped down onto his bed immediately and began reading one of his books. "George and I are going to drop some dung bombs in the corridor," Fred told Landon, "Can you cover for us if anyone comes in?" "Sure," Landon replied absently. The twins smiled eagerly at each other, "Lets go," said George. "Too bad we don't have one of those invisibility cloak thingies," said Fred as they left the room. "Nah," replied George, "That would make everything way too simple. Nothings fun unless there's a risk." Fred laughed and silently agreed. Had anyone seen the twins at that moment, they would easily recognize the happiness and excitement, just by looking at their faces. But nobody would know that those two were about to stumble upon the key that would ensure them to be the official troublemakers of Hogwarts.
A/N~ I'm sure y'all know what that "key" will be, so this isn't really a cliffhanger. Please read and review!
