A/N: I own nothing that you see in the Harry Potter books. :'( They all belong to the most wonderful person on the planet... J.K. Rowling!!!
It took most of the day to decorate the Great Hall. Ginny, Hermione, and a whole other group of girls worked from the time Ginny got there, to about four 'o clock.
Everyone ate breakfast and lunch outside as a picnic, a plan of Dumbledore's, although he did not join them. He spent his day helping the girls. In Hermione's eyes, everything had to be perfect, so they spent most of their time redecorating.
When they were done, the girls ran to their dormitories complaining that they wouldn't have enough time to get ready.
"God, you would think that the Ball was in like five minutes by the way they're acting." Ron said getting up, having been pushed out way by Lavender Brown, "I mean, it's in like four hours. I say lets go outside and enjoy the snow before Dumbledore melts it!"
Ron and Harry were greeted with a great roar of noise from the Gryffindor boys as they all ran outside.
A few minutes, they were engaged in a four-house snowball fight. Gryffindor, Ravenclaw, and Hufflepuff were ganging up on Slytherin.
Two hours later, the Great Hall was filled with all four houses' sixth and seventh year boys, and they were all soaked from head to toe.
"Bloody Hell! That was brilliant!" Ron exclaimed for everyone to hear.
The rest of the guys whispered and nodded in agreement then headed for their separate common rooms to ready.
"Well, that was definitely worth getting wet for." Seamus said a few minutes later. "Yeah," Harry countered, "It was bloody brilliant." "Couldn't have said it better myself." Dean chimed in. "I could, and I just did." Ron butted in, a little annoyed that they hadn't heard him while they were standing right next him, but the rest if the school could when he had been talking, but the boys were not paying attention to him anymore.
They were starring open mouthed at a portrait in front of them. Ron looked at the a little funny then turned to see what they were starring at, and what he saw made his mouth drop open and his eyes bulge.
He saw they were at the Fat Lady's portrait, but only, the Fat Lady wasn't there. A beautiful looking young woman was starring back at the boys in disgust.
"Have you boys never been taught manners?" The woman snapped. Harry was the first one to get his senses back.
"Who are you? Where's the Fat Lady? Why are you here?" He asked in a rush.
"Calm down, and not so fast!" The woman said, deciding to still snap at them for gawking at her. "My name is Isadora, I am the 'Fat Lady', and I'm here because I'm always here." She answered emphasizing the 'Fat Lady' part.
"Then why aren't you fat?" Ron asked rather rudely. "Humph," Isadora puffed, "In case you haven't noticed, which obviously you haven't, I've been on a diet for the last two months, and some women from one of the portraits in the Astronomy Tower left some de-aging potion laying around, so I decided to try how I looked, which is obviously very good by the way you boys reacted."
The five boys stood there dumbfounded for another few minutes continuing to stare at a now angry Isadora.
Then Neville regained his composure and muttered the password (Fairy Dust) and they staggered into their dorms to get ready for the dance, still speechless.
