I know, took ages, AGAIN! Part of that we may blame on Jan (the computer)
for dying for two weeks, and also my teachers for taking us on City
Orientation for four days.
We can also blame it on the author. I AM SO SORRY!
And guys who reviewed? Thank you so very much! I really appreciate it, and, well, just thanks.

Ron, What ARE You Doing?
By SilverWolf7007
Chapter Six
ARBRON: Hermione, Fred, George, Seamus, Dean and Neville stared in shock, horror, and a large helping of disgust at the two people standing in the DADA professor's office.
HERMIONE: I don't believe it. I thought that this would be a GOOD idea!
FRED: I knew we shouldn't have done this.
ARBRON: Snape, who was far too curious for his own good, stepped out of the corridor he had gone down and lay eyes on the man and woman about to exit.
SNAPE: Slam the bloody door in their bloody faces!
NEVILLE: (Tries to do so, is stopped before he can) Dammit!
ARBRON: And so, despite Neville's best efforts, they got free.
SEAMUS: Screw this. Gilderoy Lockhart and Rita Skeeter? I think we should just leave the school.
RITA: Aw, but we want to help!
LOCKHART: Yes! Tell me the problem; I can solve anything - because I'm Gilderoy Lockhart!
RITA: (Dreamily) What a hero....
HERMIONE: (Whispers to Fred, George, Seamus, Dean, Neville and Snape) Run!
ARBRON: So they ran as fast as they could down the hall towards the dungeons, leaving behind a bewildered Rita and Lockhart. Sadly, their mad dash to safety allowed the other two free reign over the castle - and who knows what trouble they could cause.
Meanwhile, in the Ravenclaw Common Room...
CHO: My GOD I am so bored! Nothing EVER happens at Hogwarts. I wish Cedric was alive...
ARBRON: Suddenly there was a bright flash of yellow light, and a whole heap of black and yellow glitter coated the Ravenclaw Common Room.
CEDRIC: (Having just appeared) Hiya! Never say wishes don't come true!
CHO: (Screams)
CEDRIC: (Pouts) Am I really that scary? I'm a Hufflepuff, people, not a Hippogriff!
CHO: Cedric! You're ALIVE!!!
CEDRIC: Old news sweetheart. Now, I've simply GOT to find Harry. I have info that he needs.
CHO: No! Don't leave me!
CEDRIC: (Grins) Oh don't worry, you can come with me!
CHO: Yay!
ARBRON: And so Cho and Cedric began the trek to the Gryffindor Common Room.
However, back in the Great Hall Lavender and Ron were hiding under the Staff Table, due to the belief that Fido the Evil Flea of DOOOOOM was dancing on the enchanted ceiling. Unfortunately no one was there to tell them that it was only a fly trying to get outside.
Due to the long walk to Voldemort's Evil Lair, Harry, Lucius and Draco were still walking.
DRACO: How much further is it, Father?
LUCIUS: I don't really know. Damn, I DO wish that Avery hadn't crashed my car. It doesn't take anywhere near as long when driving!
HARRY: Well, we weren't using a PortKey because Wormtail's allergic, right?
LUCIUS: Yeah, so?
HARRY: Wormtail is a bowl of mashed potatoes. I don't think he really matters anymore.
DRACO: Harry's right, let's make a PortKey.
LUCIUS: No need, I brought one with me in case of an emergency. I'd have left Wormtail behind, of course.
HARRY & DRACO: Of course.
LUCIUS: C'mon, let's use this thing and get you two to Voldie. Maybe he'll even let you join him, if you want.
HARRY: Maybe. Depends on his terms. I am NOT getting that freaky looking tattoo.
DRACO: Me neither. You may like it, Father, but I don't!
HARRY: Hah! Boy has taste.
LUCIUS: (Rolls eyes) Let's go already!
ARBRON: And so Lucius pulled his airtight container out and tapped it twice with his wand.
LUCIUS: It'll take us in a minute or so.
DRACO: (Peers inside at Wormtail) That explains the container. Huh, the little veggie boy is staring at me.
HARRY: (Looks in too) Hey, I didn't realise I gave him eyes!
LUCIUS: Looks kinda, well, gross. Mashed potato that can see.
DRACO & HARRY: Ew.
LUCIUS: I'll say.
ARBRON: Before they could continue to talk about the revoltingness of Wormtail (either as mashed potato or in his normal state) the PortKey activated, taking them to the main room of Voldie's Lair.
VOLDEMORT: Finally! What took you so long, Lucius? How hard can it be to kidnap Harry Potter? Wait...what did you do with Wormtail? And why is your son here?
HARRY: (Sighs) We took so long because we had to WALK until I, er, temporarily disposed of Wormtail, it's not hard at all to kidnap me, as I said I got rid of Wormy, and Draco's here because I dragged him along.
VOLDEMORT: Oh. May I ask, Harry, what is it that you did to my most pathetic minion?
LUCIUS: (Hands Harry the airtight container)
HARRY: (Holds it out to Voldemort) I turned him into mashed potato that has eyes. I didn't mean for him to have eyes.
VOLDEMORT: (Stares at Wormtail) Sheer brilliance, Harry. I'm beginning to like you now.....
ARBRON: There was silence. At least, there was until Wormtail blinked.
VOLDEMORT: (Laughs hysterically)
LUCIUS: (Grins)
DRACO: So, what are we going to do now?
ARBRON: Cedric and Cho reached the Gryffindor Common Room and knocked on the portrait frame. Unlike Draco, they didn't have the password. Ginny opened it.
GINNY: Cho? What is it - hang on, I think I might be seeing things. Let me get Percy. PERCE!
PERCY: (Appears behind the stunned Ginny) What is it, Gin?
GINNY: Do you see a supposedly dead blond ex-Hufflepuff standing just behind Cho Chang?
PERCY: Sure do. Hey Cedric.
CEDRIC: Hey Percy. Is Harry here? I kinda need to talk to him.
PERCY: No, he and Draco have been kidnapped by Voldemort. Was it something important?
CEDRIC: Nothing that I cant tell you, really. I've been sent to tell you what's making Ron and Lavender so crazy.
CHO: Ron and Lavender are crazy?
GINNY: It's a long story. Let's go inside so that I can tell it to you.
CHO: Okay.
ARBRON: So Cho, Ginny, Cedric and Percy entered the Gryffindor Common Room to have a very important discussion.
Meanwhile, back in Hawaii.....
REMUS: Do you think they've caught onto the fact that we don't know what's going on?
SIRIUS: I hope so, I don't want to be dragged back there again. Ron was SCARY.
REMUS: I still have nightmares from when it happened to James and Peter.
SIRIUS: (Shudders) Me too. I still don't know what happened then either. Or who fixed it.
REMUS: No, neither do I. All I know is that one minute they were crazy, the next they'd calmed down and were totally humiliated by the experience.
SIRIUS: Hm. I don't really know if we COULD do anything about this, even if we wanted to. Maybe it just goes away by itself.
REMUS: But then why such a different pair of people? James and Peter got in trouble for that prank, and then went weird, so maybe it was a punishment. But Ron and Lavender? According to Snape, Ron came back from his meeting with Dumbledore about his Potions grades and he went right off. And Lavender, also according to Snape, went weird after Hermione led the group to Dumbledore and back trying to find a cure.
SIRIUS: You think there HAS to be a connection?
REMUS: (Shrugs) Not really, but it'd be nice and neat, wouldn't it?
SIRIUS: Yeah. Hey! James and Peter were in trouble with DUMBLEDORE!
REMUS: Er, yeah? So?
SIRIUS: So it's something about him! His office?
REMUS: Nah, because the others were there too. But I agree, Dumbledore IS at the bottom of this.
SIRIUS: Are we going to tell Harry about this?
REMUS: Not yet. My sources tell me that he and Draco were kidnapped by Lucius and Wormtail not long ago. We'll wait until later. Or at least until we figure out EXACTLY how Dumbledore's doing this.
SIRIUS: Agreed.
