Dangers in the past.
When the trio arrived at the charms classroom no one was there. They picked seats in front and took out their books. Hermione then lectured both about not pulling anything in the lessons because they had already had their fun and they needed to win back the points they had lost. Besides, Daniel and Ryan hadn't looked happy with them, probably they didn't want to draw attention. Ron and Harry reluctantly agreed, at least while Snape wasn't in the same classroom as them. At this words Hermione smiled evilly and assured them that if they had the chance to pull something on him she would help in all she could. The three quieted down when the colourful students entered. Most were talking happily about what had happened, they seemed to have taken it well, others shot them resentful looks and others, mostly the marauders, looked a tad jealous. All murmurs ceased when a blue professor Flitwick entered the classroom. Most students had to cover their mouths in order to not burst out laughing. The professor paid them no heed, and began the lesson saying they would learn about duelling charms.
"Well class, lets begin with something easy. Who thinks he can do the disarming charm." The first three hands in the air were Ron's, Harry's and Hermione's, causing the class to murmur. Flitwick looked them over carefully, he knew Harry was probably more than able to do it so he decided to pick up his redheaded friend.
"Please Mr Surley, come here." Ron made his way up and looked down at the professor. "First, what's the incantation to do the charm."
"Expeliarimus, sir." Flitwick nodded and took out his wand.
"Very well, try to disarm me when I say." The two men faced each other and the Flitwick said now and started to shout the disarming curse himself. Ron hadn't been expecting it, but nevertheless he sprung aside, let the professors charm pass and whispered the charm himself, effectively disarming the man. He smiled a little at the surprised face of his professor and handed him his wand back. "That was very good Mr Surley, ten points to Gryffindor. You can sit down." Ron did as he was told and smiled at his friends. "Ok, everyone, now you are all going to try it. Make groups of three, two do the charm and the third makes sure the wands don't go astray." Ron of course paired up with his friends and they lazily began to disarm their friends. Soon it became boring and they decided to make it more of a match. Ron and Hermione shouted the curse together and began to purr more power into the charm, seeing who would win. Harry sat on a side looking at them interested, he never took part in this little competitions his friends held because they had soon learned Harry always won. After about ten minutes, Hermione sent Ron flying through the room and Harry hurriedly stopped him, levitating him to the ground.
"And what was that?" The three turned to see the professor looking at them with a slightly amazed look on his face. He shook his head to clear it, it was not often he found powerful wizards at this young age, he wondered what they must have gone through to master their powers to that level. Before they could answer he added "Never mind, I think you have mastered this charm, write a six inch paper on it for tomorrow and you can go." The teenagers nodded happily, took their things and left the room.
"Well guys, what do we do now? We have still an hour till transfiguration."
"We could go to your room, Harry, we haven't seen it yet."
"That's ok with me Herm, but what if Ryan or Daniel are there?" Ron and Hermione looked at each other.
"Well, then you're lucky because you won't have to face them alone." Harry grinned at his friends and they began to walk together towards his room.
When they arrived, Harry made sure there was no one in the common room and collapsed in an armchair. Godric sang a little and flew towards him, settling on his shoulder. Ron and Hermione looked around and then sat down on the couch. Suddenly Hermione remembered the camera and took it out, exchanging grins with her friends. She muttered something to it and tapped it twice with her wand. A few minutes later the trio was rolling from laughter, looking at the pictures. They were so absorbed in the pictures that they didn't notice the door open and Ryan and Daniel come in. The two men looked at them for a while, slight smiles on their faces, it had been a long time since they had heard the three teenagers laugh so freely as now. Finally Ron noticed them and they quickly whipped the smiles from their faces. Ron didn't notice it since he was busy warning his friends and trying to hid the pictures. Without a word Ryan extended his yellow hand and with a sigh the teenagers handed him the pictures. He handed them back at Daniel and looked at the kids.
"Ok, listen to me. Nor Daniel, nor Ethan nor me have a problem with you having your fun, but was it really necessary to curse the whole great hall? Even Dumbledore? I mean, we are trying to keep a low profile and these stunts don't help. I don't want to have to repeat this, is that understood?"
"Yes, sir." The teenagers tried to put their most innocent faces, Ryan sighed and shook his head.
"Why aren't you in class?"
"Flitwick dismissed us early since we had already mastered the disarming charm." Ryan nodded and he and Daniel sat down opposite of Ron and Hermione. It wasn't long that, after some coaxing from the children, they were back at looking at the pictures and laughing.
