Chapter 4- The Return of the Pranksters
Harry waited for Ron to get dressed before they headed down to the Great Hall for breakfast. They met Hermione in the common room and walked together.
Harry didn't feel like he should tell them about his idea yet because he knew what Hermione was going to say. Her voice drifted through his head, "Harry, I don't want you to go down there again. You don't want to get yourself into more trouble do you? What's done is done. You can't go back."
Harry then thought of Ron's reaction, "You're not actually goin' to believe Loony Lovegood, are ya? Her father is the editor of The Quibbler. She's bound to have false news."
Harry didn't even notice that they had already reached the Great Hall. As Harry walked passed the Ravenclaw table, he noticed Cho Chang immediately. She was looked stunning as always. Harry couldn't believe that he actually thought he was over her. He was watching Cho talk to her friend, Marietta when he felt a hand on his shoulder.
The hand belonged to Fred Weasley. He was one of the Weasley twins. George was standing beside him.
"Hiya, Harry!" said Fred enthusiastically.
"Hey you guys! What are you guys doin' here? You guys have already been here for 7 years!!" said Harry, surprised.
"Well, we thought that since Dumbledore is back and the git has left, we would come back and make up for what we missed. Actually Mum thought of the idea! We weren't very fond of it, but now we figured we'd pull a few new pranks with the new pranksters. They will never be us!" said George.
"Yeah! No one would ever dare do what we did. We are now legends here at Hogwarts! And, just for this occasion, we tried out some few tricks while we were home and they seen to work quite well." added Fred.
Harry, Ron, and Hermione couldn't help but laugh at the thought. Soon, Ginny came and joined the group. She smiled at Harry and quickly turned away.
"What happened to your boyfriend?" asked Ron.
"Oh, I let go of him. He didn't really understand me. I dunno why. Anyways, What's going on over here? I heard some laughing," Ginny replied.
Harry explained to Ginny about the "wannabe" pranksters and Ginny listened to every word.
"Well, we're gonna go to our seats now. I'm extremely hungry. Most of the Gryffindors already left to their classes," said George.
"George, maybe they ate breakfast earlier than us!" answered Fred.
"That's true. We are always late anyways, but I'm still hungry," answered George.
As Harry ate his breakfast, he looked around for Luna Lovegood. He turned to his left. He saw Ron eating like a pig as usual. Then, at the end of the table, he saw the twins. In front of him, he saw Cho Chang and her friend, but no sign of Luna. To his left, he saw Hermione eating and Ginny to her left. He figured that she already had breakfast and began to finish his meal.
Once the three finished their meal, they all had Transfiguration. They all made it into the N.E.W.T class. Harry wondered if he made it into this class because Professor McGonagall had told him that she would help him become an Auror if it was the last thing she did. Still, Harry was pleased to be in this class.
