Harry and Ron, laughing, ran into Professor McGonagall. "Hi, Professor!" they giggled.

"Hello, boys. How are you?" she asked. They grinned at her.

"Good!"

"I have a class to teach!" she said, "Good-bye."

Harry and Ron followed her to the Transfiguration classroom. She allowed them in, baffled.

The 7th year Gryffindors and Slytherins! Harry ran over to Seamus. "Can I borrow your wand?" he asked.

"Why?" Seamus asked, glancing around. Harry grinned, and whispered in his ear. Laughing, Seamus handed the wand to him. Ron grinned when Harry returned with it.

"Today, we will study more deeply about Animagus then we did before..." McGonagall said. Ron took the wand, and planted himself behind her. Waving it around, he muttered, "Colorus, Rainbowus!"

McGonagall's black hair turned into a rainbow of colors: reds, blues, greens, yellows...

The students giggled. Harry snuck over to Seamus, and gave back the evidence. Smiling, Seamus thanked him. Snickering, Harry and Ron sat in the corner, watching the stern professor.

A knock on the door interrupted the class. McGonagall opened the door with her wand. Severus waked in. He blinked, looking at her. Hiding his laughter, he managed to bark out, "Minerva, erm, you have a very interesting taste in hair color..."

McGonagall frowned at him. "What ever are you talking about Severus?" she asked.

Sniggering, Severus replied smoothly, "Look in a mirror, you'll see..."

She narrowed her eyes, and walked over to a mirror sitting on her desk. Picking it up, she looked. The shout of rage was heard five classrooms away. Ron and Harry howled with laughter. Severus finally broke: he laughed so hard, a stitch was forming in his side.

"HAAAAAAAAARRY! ROOOOOOOOON! SEEEEEVEEEEERUUUUUS!" she screeched. Grinning, Severus shrugged, and exited quickly, taking a very giggly Harry and Ron with him.

"You two, if you get into trouble again, I'll lock you up with the Bloody Baron..." he said. Harry and Ron snuck away around a corner, leaving Severus talking to air.

The two Mini-Marauders ran through the halls. One teacher needed a good trick done to her, to straighten her out...

Going up North(?) Tower, Ron and Harry headed up to the Divination Classroom. They hurried up the ladder, and crept in. Trelawney was talking about tealeaves. Harry shuddered.

"To read the tea leaves, you turn the cup counter-clock wise..." she was saying, looking around. Harry decided on the perfect revenge. He ran up to the desk, grabbed a candle sitting on it, and walked over to the fire. Lighting it, he trotted over to Trelawney.

Holding it to her shawl, with hung to the floor, it caught fire. She looked at him, and at her burning shawl. Trelawney screamed, running to the boiling teapots. She dumped the water out of them, onto herself.

As much use that had, she might as well just hit it with leaves. It got worst. She bolted down the ladder, and through the corridors, out the doors, and to the Lake.

Trelawney jumped in, the fire going out. The students blinked, the shock and confusion dying down. They laughed, the Divination teacher coming back in, peeved.

"GET OUT!" she screamed. The students, Ron, and Harry left, giggling and laughing. She tended to her burnt robes and shawls.

Sirius and Remus saw the flood of bodies come from the tower, and frowned. "what's going on?" Remus asked.

"Trelawney got burned!" a girl said, grinning. Harry and Ron struggled out of the groups, and stood in front of them, smug looks on their faces.

"OK, what did you two do?" Remus said. Harry and Ron shook their heads.

"Nothing!" they replied. Severus trotted over, Hermione following.

"Don't even tell me," he said, looking at the two boys, frowning.

"They got Trelawney!!!" Sirius cheered, "That old bat didn't predict that coming!"

Severus laughed. Trelawney! Of all the people! "Good choice!" he whispered, grinning.

They smiled, Hermione tutting them.
