Chapter 11 - The Pink Prank

The next morning Harry woke up intending to get a good seat for when his uncle came into the great hall. He went down to breakfast with Hermione because Ron 'couldn't be arsed to get out of bed'.

While Hermione had busied herself with a new book, Harry just watched the door longingly waiting for his uncle to arrive. He had anticipated that he was to get told off by his uncle however that did not deter him as he'd been planning this for weeks and knew he'd make Sirius and Remus proud.

Most of the students had come in by now and yet there was still no sign of Snape. Maybe he not coming up, he did say he could order food. Sirius and Remus came in the next minute in a deep discussion about what 'their' new prank would be. They both smiled at Harry and Harry had to stop him from laughing. Hell, there are gonna love this.

Ten minutes had passed and still no sign of Harry's uncle. Mostly everyone was in the great hall including Ron who was troffing down some breakfast and trying to finish his Charms essay off. You could hear sighing from Hermione every time she looked at Ron and shacked her head.

As the trio were about the leave and Harry had started believing that is uncle wasn't going to show his face, Professor Snape stormed in wearing a florescent pink cloak. The whole hall looked at him as the room went deadly silent. No one could speak as they were all so shocked and anyone that could was being silenced by Snape's infamous glare. But as he got closer to Harry, Harry realised he was in big shit. Oh fuck, I knew it was too good to be true.

Snape was about five metres away from Harry still striding towards him. 'POTTER!' Harry bit on his lip his eyes clearly showing fear. He stumbled back a couple of steps.

'Come with me Potter,' said Snape grabbing Harry's hand and dragging him out of the hall. The hall erupted in voice. Everyone had gotten over the shock and was retelling it to the people who had already seen it. Ron and Hermione were gob smacked. Ron, for one did not know how he'd done it and Hermione, couldn't believe Harry would do something like that.

Sirius and Remus' faces were the best though. Their mouths were hanging open so big Hagrid's hand could get in there. They both turned to each other. Remus was the first to speak.

'.Harry.pull a prank.on.on.Severus.'

'.Why hadn't.WE.thought of.that.one before.?'

*** Back 2 Sev n Harry

'Oh shit,' Harry muttered under his breath nearly tripping up by the speed Severus was dragging him.

'You are in that all right, Potter!' Severus retorted making a new surge of power and quickening the speed. Harry nearly fell but the grip on him prevented that from happening.

Harry dared not retort for fear of what might happen next. Well at least Sirius and Remus will be proud. And I suppose Gryffindor will find it hilarious even if I do get expelled and 500 house points are taken off, even though we haven't even got that amount.

'In!' Severus barked pointing towards his office and making Harry come out of his reverie. Harry walked in with Severus close behind.

'Sit!' Shouted Severus to Harry. Harry sat while Severus remained standing.

'Change it back, now!' Professor Snape shouted at Harry.

'I-I can't,' Harry stammered with a small flash of a grin. It soon returned back to fear when his uncle glared at him.

'NOW!' Severus yelled.

'I can't!' Harry said getting louder.

'Don't raise your voice at me; you're in enough trouble as it is! Now turn my robes back to black and do it fast!' Severus said advancing on Harry.

'I can't! C-A-N-N-O-T! They'll turn back in about a week or so,' Harry said getting impatient. Can't he hear?

'I said do NOT raise your voice at me! What the hell do you mean you cannot turn them back?!'

'Exactly what I said; you can't, I can't, Dumbledore can't. Just get used to pink for a week!'

'Stop being so cheeky!'

'Well I wouldn't if you'd stop duplicating everything I say,' Harry said feeling his courage building inside of him. It was only a small, harmless joke. Trust uncle Severus to take it the wrong way.

'Stop being so insolent! 250 points off Gryffindor.'

'.You can't do that! We haven't even GOT 250 points and.'

'.Do I look like I care?! Three detentions a week for the next month with Filch.'

'.A month! Three a week?! With Filch?! Why not you?'

'Because you're not wasting any more of my time! Studying all day on Sunday for your O.W.L.'s in the library.'

'.What?! That's the weekend! All day? No way!'

'Yes way and no going to Hogsmeade until Easter!'

'Get stuffed! It was a harmless prank; I mean it only changed the colour of your clothes, nothing life threatening.'

'Do not use that tone with me, young man!' Severus said pointing towards the door.

'Get off your high horse!' Harry retorted sharply.

'Stop being so bloody insubordinate, child! Do you want to be still be on the Gryffindor quidditch team?'

'You couldn't take me off it even if you wanted to. Everyone would just see that it was because you wanted your house to win, for once,' Harry said smarmily.

'Believe me I can. And you won't be on it long if you keep up your attitude,' Severus said glaring at Harry telling Harry not to mess with him anymore than he already has.

'We'll see about that. Getting chucked off the Quidditch team because of one small, harmless, daft prank. It was only to get people to laugh, seen as probably half the pupils know someone who has died in the past two months. Sorry if you thought it was that bigger deal, that I should have had more respect, that clearly I don't think about the consequences of me actions, which by the way haven't had a crap affect on anyone else but me and my fellow Gryffindors, surprise, surprise, that I'm a stupid irresponsible child who needs to grow up! Well to be honest I don't think it's me that needs to grow up somehow, I'm not the one who is taking this way too far out of proportion, so when you've calmed down a bit and matured a little we'll chat again. Goodbye,' Harry finished and before Severus could say anything he walked straight out of the door which flung open by itself which was done on Harry's part, for Charms.

Harry walked into the Charms classroom. Everyone was reading a section in his or her textbooks so there was hardly any noise but it went deadly silent as Harry walked in.

'Sorry Professor for being late but I had a small.get-together with Professor Snape that was so enthralling I couldn't tear myself away from it,' Harry said with a grin of his face. It was as big as Sirius'.

'That's all right. It looked interesting so I'll let you off. Everyone is reading a passage so while everyone else is doing that, could you come up here and tell me more about this 'enthralling get-together'?' Sirius said grinning madly.

'Sure thing, sir,' Harry said and walked to the front while everyone returned to their reading.

'I'm so proud, Harry. It was amazing, I mean why didn't I think of that?!'

'Nice to see you too. And because I'm so much more brighter than you,' Harry grinned.

'Oy, I'm still you're teacher!'

'It's not like you're gonna take points from Gryffindor is it? We've got enough taken off as it is. On that subject, I wanted to see if you and Remus could add them back here and there. Please?'

'How many did he take?' Sirius said rolling his eyes.

'250,' Harry groaned.

'Bloody hell! Excuse my French. He didn't do anything else, did he? I'll be having words with him if he did.'

'Well yeah, three detentions a week for a month with Filch,' Sirius grimaced, 'and I have to study all day every Sunday for my O.W.L.'s in the library and I can't go to Hogsmeade till Easter but I can get out of that cos' I've got dad's cloak and the Marauder's map,' Harry said with a wink.

'Anyway, we kinda had a massive row or let's say he was threatening to chuck me off the Quidditch team so I blew up in his face and told him we would talk when he grew up. I walked out before he could say anything so I doubt I'll be going to potions for a while,' Harry said mischievously. He was still smiling but biting on his bottom lip.

'Sirius' eyes grew wide. 'You said what to Severus?! Oh my god Harry, how the hell are you going to get out of this one?! Wish I could have been there though,' Sirius shacked his head. 'But that's not the point. Bloody hell, he's going to be livid. I think you're going to have to avoid him for a while.'

'Don't worry, I will. I'll have to start going to eat in the kitchens. That's okay as long as Hermione doesn't her spew or S.P.E.W. should I say again. It was bad enough the first time.'

'Well, how about you come to my rooms for dinner until he's calmed down slightly. Can't say anything for breakfast cos' you know I won't be up and at lunch you know it's always a rush for me to mark papers. Go to breakfast early before he comes. Just use the Marauder's map. I'll get you out of the detentions, well I'll try. Say I want you and on Sunday's just don't turn up. It's not like he going to sit with you all day, is it? Especially after what you said,' Sirius said and winked at Harry.

'Thanks Sirius, er Professor,' Harry said and burst out giggling.

'What?!' Sirius demanded playfully.

'You.a professor. I didn't think it was possible. I mean, be realistic, you're hardly sensible,' said Harry.

'I'm not sensible but I'm always Serious.'

'Oh god, stop with the Sirius jokes,' Harry groaned.

'No, now go sit down and catch up.' Harry nodded and sat down in between Ron and Hermione.

'What did.' Ron started but Hermione over rode him.

'Honestly, you boys have no brains at all. I can't believe you did that, Harry. We're in fifth year now, and you're a prefect. You're meant to set an example to younger students,' she lectured.

'Oh come of it Hermione, it was hilarious. Did you see his face? Amazing. What did he do?' Ron said.

'Too much. 250 points from Gryffindor, I'm not going to be liked.'

'250! Fucking hell!' Ron shouted. Everyone went silent. Ron turned red, even his ears and he slid down his chair. Sirius was grinning at him impishly.

'That's what I thought,' Sirius replied and went back to his bike magazine.

'Sorry sir,' Ron replied. Hermione looked like she was going to explode.

'Ronald.' Hermione started but Harry cut him off. Ron looked grateful.

'Anyway, I asked Sirius to ask him and Remus to add the points back on here and there and I have three detentions a week for a month with Filch,' Ron groaned. Hermione just looked at Harry as if to say well-you-got-yourself- into-it.

'Hate to say this but you were probably better with detentions with Snape,' Ron said grimacing.

'Me too. Anyway, I can't go to Hogsmeade until Easter,' Harry said. Ron mouth dropped.

'He can't do that! He's not your guardian; Sirius is and if Sirius says you can go, you can,' Ron said outraged. Hermione rolled her eyes.

'Well, I think he can but it doesn't matter cos' I have my dad's cloak and the Marauder's Map.'

'You are not sneaking into Hogsmeade without permission. No, I'm not letting you. I'll tell McGonagall this time, I promise.' Hermione said told Harry.

'Hermione, please. You know it wouldn't do any good cos' I have Sirius and Remus on my side,' Harry said. 'Anyway, I was wondering to ask you something Hermione. I doubt I'll be going to potions for a while,' Hermione crossed her arms and had a look on her face as if to say what-have- you-done-now. 'So I wondering whether you could just spend like half an hour after each lesson, I mean at night of course, telling how you do whatever you did that sort of thing. Don't get my homework or anything. It's just I don't want to infuriate him even more.'

'What the hell did you do this time, Harry? And tell me the whole truth,' Hermione said chucking her tongue.

'We just had a slight argument,' Harry grinned. Hermione narrowed her eyes. Ron's face looked ecstatic and was urging him to carry on.

'What do you mean by slight?' Hermione said.

'Well.you see he was threatening to chuck me of the Quidditch team so I sort of blew up and told him that we would talk when he grew up. And before he could say anything, I blew the door open with my anger and stormed out. That's why I'll be avoiding him and won't come to the great hall for a while,' Harry said.

'Bloody hell, you said that?! No wonder you're avoiding him. Amazing!' Ron said in awe.

'It is not amazing; it's rude and badly behaved. Harry, you are a prefect. And not just to a teacher but an elder, a family member! You should apolog.'

'Hermione!'

'A family member?! Harry, is there something you're not telling me?'

'Yes, don't scream. I was going to tell you. Just not like this. You see Snape was my dad's brother. He's my uncle. Don't scream. It's really not that bad. He's nice when you get to know him. I swear. I'll tell you all about it later, at night or something.'

'You better! Bloody hell,' Ron said shaking his head and got back to working.

It went silent for a while before Harry nearly jumped for joy.

'I've got it. That picture Colin took, we can copy it and put it up everywhere. Herm, what's the charm for multiplying something?'

'I'm not telling you! You two are not causing any more trouble,' Hermione said going back to her work. Ron looked put off but Harry didn't.

'Fine then we'll ask the expert,' Harry said grinning. Harry cleared his throat. 'Professor?'

'Yes, Harry,' Sirius said looking up.

'We were wondering, what the charm was for multiplying an object?' Harry said still grinning.

'It's prolifero. Why? I don't think you need to cause any more trouble than you already have, Harry,' Sirius said narrowing his eyes.

'We'll see. Thanks. You shall have to wait and see, sir,' said Harry mischievously and went back to his work. He waited a minute then turned to Ron. 'We'll go see Colin at lunch.'
