"And therefore, the goblin rebellions in 1940 caused…" Professor Binns droned on and on while the bored-to-death students sat and listened. Actually, none of the students were really listening; they had all found something more interesting to do.
James was doodling a pictured of Lily. Sirius was counting the number of freckles on Erin Wolen's face. Remus was playing tic-tac-toe against himself. Peter happened to be picking his nose while nobody was looking.
"… and that concludes today's lesson. For homework, I want you all to write a one page summary on both the positive and negative effects of the 1940 goblin rebellions. Class Dismissed." The room was suddenly alive again as everyone scrambled to pack up their stuff and leave as quickly as possible.
Chatting loudly, the Marauders returned to the Gryffindor Common Room. James and Sirius flopped down on the couch and decided to come up with some new pranks to play on the Slytherins. Remus challenged Peter to a game of Wizard's Chess.
"Oh, by the way, do you still have any of the chocolate frogs you bought last week at Hogsmeade, James?" Sirius asked.
"Yeah, why?"
"Chloe Summers collects the wizard cards, and I was thinking of giving some to her as a little present," Sirius answered.
"You mean, you want to use them to get her to notice you, and possibly go out with you," James said.
"Exactly."
"Alright. I'll go get them," James said with a sigh. He got up and headed upstairs. He got to their dorm, but heard faint music playing within. Thinking Sirius had probably forgotten to turn off the muggle radio he stole from Lindsey Kinkle, he shrugged and opened up the door.
The sound of the strumming of a ukulele drifted out. Puzzled James stepped into the room.
On the big dresser were four plastic cows! What's worse, they had on tiny grass skirts and were hula dancing! hip shake left hip shake right and slide
"Aaargh!" James ran over to the dresser, grabbed the enchanted cows, and threw them out the window. He watched as the tiny plastic toys fell down, down, down…
With a sigh of relief, James turned away from the window only to be met by three more plastic cows on the desk! These were wearing cowboy hats, and were square dancing!
"Swing yer pardner round n round…" The enchanted cows continued to chant.
James yelped in fear at the sight of more plastic, and managed to snatch them and shove them out the window also. After making a thorough check that there were no more cows in the room, he snatched his bag of chocolate frogs and quickly left.
"What?! More cows?!" Remus asked in disbelief after James had told them what had happened.
"Hey, why'd you have to throw them out the window?" Peter whined. "You could have let me keep them!"
"Shut up!" James growled, annoyed.
"Wow, I can't believe you've got a group of plastic cows stalking you!" Sirius laughed. Then he was serious, "The important thing is that you have the chocolate frogs, right?"
"Yes," James said handing over the bag. "You're Welcome"
"Oh yeah, thanks," Sirius muttered as he started counting how many there were.
"Anyways, I can't believe someone actually bothered to enchant the plastic cows," Remus began. "However, by the way you described it, it seems like they used some dark magic."
"Dark magic?! How can dancing plastic cows be dark magic?!" Peter retorted.
"Well, the basic charm for enchanting a thing to make it move on its own is what we read about two weeks ago in Defence Against Dark Arts," James explained. "I think it was, the, uh, gosh, what was it? Oh yes, the animation spell."
"Right. However, getting them to move a specific way, such as dance, must be more difficult. I, for one, don't know how they did it, since we never learned any more about the spell."
"You know what I think you need to do?" Sirius commented. "Catch whoever is behind this! Who cares about how they enchanted the cows? What you need to know is who enchanted them and put them there."
"I think Sirius is right," James agreed. "But how are we going to catch them? We have no clues or evidence at all! We don't even know when they'll strike next!"
"Well, in the meantime, why don't you put some extra charms and spells on our door, so nobody else can sneak in with the cows?" Peter said.
"Good idea! I'm go do that now!"
