I See Talking Snakes

Chapter 2: Wacky Train

::All right, Ron. I see how your curse is annoying -- but I feel VERY sorry for Hermione! Let's go find your family, Ron, okay? Until then keep your heads cool. Hermione, poke one of us when Snape is near:: Hermione nodded, which looked quite funny, as she looked like she could float away in a bubble of happiness.

They went outside the compartment and saw students acting in the most bizarre way. One of them was eating his shirt, another was humping the wall non-stop, which grossed them all out. A girl Harry knew, Cho Chang, came up to Ron and started sniffing his hair. Ron stared at her as if she were a Vampire ready to bite.

After passing Neville, who was doing Dean's hair, and Seamus, who was doing front flips, they spotted Ginny. She had drastically changed her appearance. She was wearing a belly-showing shirt, tight pants, and too much makeup. Ron and Harry just gawked at her---for different reasons though. Harry noticed she had a few curves to her figure. She approached Harry, walking like a fashion model on the runway.

"Hey, sexy. Why don't you come with me, and I'll show you what it is to be a real man?" she said in an enticingly hot voice that made Harry almost drool. Ron started to cry again, and Hermione comforted him. Harry just stared, stunned.

"I-I...I see talking snakes." he said in reply, his misty voice a little shaky. Ginny giggled and grabbed Harry's bum squeezing it, then she kissed him. Harry didn't know what to do, he wanted to kiss her back but he knew it would upset Ron and this wasn't the real Ginny he knew! He could never do that to her!

Finally Ron shouted, "Stop!!" in his pathetically anxious voice. Harry tried to gently nudge her away, but Ginny didn't stop-- until Ron literally dragged her by her hair. It looked quite funny; Ron had Ginny pinned down by her arms, and she was screaming in anger kicking her legs all the while Ron looked like a horrified child at a scary flick .

At last, Harry remembered they needed to find the twins and Percy next. Harry didn't really want to find Percy, however. That's all they needed was to see how HE turned out! He finally pushed Ron and Hermione forward; Ron had Ginny by the wrist now, she had given up fighting her older brother. Ginny in her right state could blast Ron across the hall if she wanted, but she also wouldn't be acting this way if she were in her right state.

They passed many more students, some hanging out of doors like monkeys, others making out, and even some nude. Harry recognized one of the naked people -- it was Percy!! ::Oh, bloody hell, here we go.:: Harry thought. He didn't WANT to have Percy follow them around now. He had to turn Ron's attention away from his older, nuddy-pant brother. Harry walked along beside Ginny, which kept Ron's full attention, and they continued on.

After a little while, Ron spotted the twins. They were---dressed in their Hogwarts uniforms, while standing up straight and tall. They acted like they were superior to everyone around them, their noses sticking up in the air. They also appeared to have smelt something rotten, with the petulant expressions on their faces.

"Why hello there, Harry, I hope you are doing well. I cannot wait until our arrival at Hogwarts; I need to discuss some important matters with Professor Dumbledore." Fred said as they approached, he brushed the faintest piece of lent off of his uniform.

Then George added, "Yes, and I -- Ginny! What in the world are you doing?! You look like a harlot woman! Just wait until I tell mother, she won't be too happy about this!" Harry stared at Ron aghast. Ginny just shook her head and rolled her eyes. Ron screamed again, this time a high, piercing scream Harry didn't think Ron could possibly conjure.

"NO!! THEY TURNED INTO PERCY!!!!!!!!" Ron blurted out. All the students felt the jerk of the train slowing. "Ah! Perhaps we have arrived dear brother." Fred said attempting to lay his bright red hair flat.
