Chapter 10
A/N: I know that past chapter was gay. I mean, jeez. Nothing happened! This chapter should be funny, or you can beat me.
Fred, George, Harry, Ron, and Hermione settled themselves at the Gryffindor Table. There were still 5 minutes until everyone else came in, and they had already had Hermione bewitch some of the bottles to read "Mrs. Cookies' Pumpkin Juice!" Then these bottles were placed with two on each House table. There was one bottle on the Gryffindor table as well.
Hermione started to lecture them as everyone else began to trickle in. She said quickly, "The powder won't go into effect for an hour. It builds up in strength and lasts for 24 hours, so the peak of the craziness will be sometime during morning classes and lunch tomorrow. All right?" The four boys nodded. Hermione grinned wickedly. "Well, here come our victims!"
As Dumbledore made the evening announcements and the platters and goblets in front of the children filled with food and drink, the five teens who had placed the doctored-up pumpkin juice kept glancing around. The four boys, being boys, were shoving food into their mouths as well as looking around. Hermione just was drinking absentmindedly from the bottle of pumpkin juice next to her.
"Bottle of pumpkin juice? I was drinking water!" she asked herself. "Oh, no." she had taken several sips from a bottle of spiked pumpkin juice.
As Hermione set the bottle down and grimaced, Parvati grabbed the bottle and said to her friend Lavender, "Bloody hell! This is some NICE pumpkin juice for once!" she then poured herself and Lavender another gobletful, then told Neville, Dean, and Seamus that they should try it too.
At the other house tables, more of the same was going on. Malfoy was guzzling his second goblet of the juice. Some of the Hufflepuff and Ravenclaw kids were drinking it down too. Next to Hermione, Fred and George, smirking, had poured goblets of it for their friends Lee Jordan, Alicia Spinnet, Angelina Johnson, and Katie Bell.
It seemed that Hermione had also bewitched the bottles to refill themselves. She wasn't sure whether that the powder would be as potent, so she added a few spoonfuls to the bottle and some people's goblets when no one was paying attention to her. "Oh, no." she muttered again. On a dare from Fred, Harry had eaten some of the Crazy Candy Powder plain and was now giggling insanely. Luckily, the dessert part of dinner was finally over and they could go back to their common room.
As soon as the portrait hole swung open, three of the five pranksters collapsed into chairs. "Oh my god, that was bloody funny to see them all drinking that stuff down," gasped Ron, laughing his head off. Harry wasn't giggling anymore, he was groaning about having a stomachache.
"Well, I TOLD you not to eat it plain. But did you listen? NO!" groused Hermione.
"You never told us that, Herm," said Ron, laughing. By this statement, the rest of their House had stumbled into the common room. Most of them complained about being sleepy and went straight up to their dorms. Fred, George, and Ginny were the last through the portrait hole, George carrying Ginny who was laughing helplessly.
"Ah, Harry, hullo!" she shrieked excitedly. Although Ginny was a pretty 14- year-old, she looked about ten at the moment because she was so excited. "I'm so happy to see you!" she jumped out of George's grasp and jumped onto Harry's lap.
"What the-" Harry pretended to be shocked although he liked having Ginny on his lap- not that he'd tell anyone.
