Chapter three

"So, now what?" asked Crystal.  It was the next day and the odd looking group had somehow found their way into Diagon Alley and were window-shopping.

"We take over the wizarding world starting with Gringotts," smiled Carmen. 

"Well there goes a whole thirty seconds of our day," frowned Trinity.

"At least we'd have money," frowned Ben.  "I'm starving."

"Ben, must you constantly inform us on your body changes?" asked Crystal.

"Yeah," said Malya.  "Your feet were sweating five times today."

"I can't help that," frowned Ben.  "It runs in my family."

"Along with your eyes?" Crystal asked sweetly.  Ben blinked at her, because he was slightly cross-eyed.

"That's not nice.  You're friends with Lael," he pointed out, referring to his sister.

"And that requires me to be nice to you?" she laughed.  "Sorry bud.  Not happening."

"Wait," said Trinity.

"What?" asked Carmen, feeling annoyed. They all stopped.  Trinity burped and said, "Ok, let's go now."

The group continued to walk towards the gleaming white building when the white beard of an old man suddenly blinded Crystal as he walked past.  She raised one finger and she looked at the others in shock, with her mouth open.

"Was that…?" began Crystal.

"That was," gasped Carmen.

"Should we?" asked Trinity.

"Malya is," said Crystal.

The other four turned to see Malya looking innocent in the way only she can.  They crowded around her.

"And we met Lucius Malfoy and he threatened us and can we go to Hogwarts?" she asked, batting her eyelashes at him.

"Pa-weese?" chorused the other girls, looking up at him with puppy dog eyes.

"What about the young gentleman with you?

"Can we shut him in an airtight vault?" Carmen asked.

"Hey!  I didn't ask to be transported here with you!"  Ben snapped.

"And you think we wanted you?" asked Trinity.

"Well who would you want instead?" Ben snapped.

"Freddy, Jason, Chuckie, Greg Davis!" snapped Malya.

"Oh you're funny," frowned Ben.

"So can we?" asked Crystal, turning back to Dumbledore.

"Well," said Dumbledore, thinking hard.  "I don't see why not.  Though, the sorting ceremony finished two weeks ago."

"That's ok," smiled Carmen.  "We all belong in the Gryffindor house.  That," she said pointing at Ben, "belongs in the kitchen serving his betters."

"I love my wand," Trinity whispered.  They were at the doors of the Great Hall, waiting for Professor McGonagall to come back for them.

"That still did not give you the right to play with that little kid the way you did," said Malya.

"She wouldn't get out of my way," protested Trinity.

"You have to admit," said Crystal as she made her shoe levitate, "it was funny watching Ben struggle as Trinity strung him on that flagpole."  Ben stuck out his bottom lip and folded his arms.

"Look," laughed Carmen.  "He's brooding, he's brooding."

"Oh shove it," snapped Ben.  Carmen went to rebuttal, but McGonagall tapped her on the shoulder and cleared her throat.

"We're ready for you now," she said.

2nd A/N: Unlike with Lucius/Jason Isaacs, we really mean the entire Ben bashing.
