Chapter 16: Freak Out

Months passed by, and May was fast approaching. The cold February weather had left Hogwarts grounds. It was late at night; everyone was asleep, all except two mischievous thirteen year old boys, whispering frantically to each other, in the common room, unseen. Suddenly a foot appeared out of thin air and tapped a brick two times. Quiet footsteps walked up the girl's dormitory, and very quietly, the second year girls dormitory door opened.

Unseen, and unheard, two boys, walked in and showed themselves to the girl's bathroom. They opened it and took a few toiletries. Quickly and quietly they left and went back to their dormitory.

They opened their dormitory door and appeared out of thin air, while abandoning a large silvery cloak. They head to their own bathroom, with the girl's things in their hands. Over one of the two sinks, was a cauldron.

James Potter looked down at the label on one of the stolen containers. "Face Cream," muttered James to his best friend Sirius Black. He handed the face cream to him, and Sirius immediately dumped the contents into the other sink. Sirius turned on the tap and watched the water hit the contents as it went down the drain.

James and Sirius smiled. James knelt down on the bathroom floor, and opened the cupboard under the sink, and pulled out jars of things they collected earlier that day. Sirius grabbed a jar full of mud, and poured it into the cauldron. Sirius then took some plants, they found around the lake, and he added that to the cauldron as well. Then he took a leaf with purple spots and spikes around it, they stole from one of the Greenhouses. James threw it in. Then they added, some sugar quills, and squeezed a gooey substance out of a plastic bag. Once they added a few more things, James and Sirius used a spell to make it look like actual face cream. They poured the contents in the cauldron into the face cream container, and screwed on the cap.

They were satisfied with the face cream.

Then they moved over to the shampoo.

James and Sirius started pouring everything else left over into the cauldron. Sirius, once again, poured out the shampoo into the sink. They poured into the cauldron: bile, dragon liver, pumpkin juice, water from the lake, bezoar bits, dirt, and one last thing. Sirius gasped and pulled out a plastic bag from the cupboard under the sink. He held it out to James who backed away. Sirius held it out at arms length. James put on some rubber gloves and winced as he opened the bag. He looked inside, and quickly closed it. Sirius scrunched up his nose. James put his hand in the bag to reveal another, smaller bag. This bag was clear, and it held a lock of black greasy hair. James opened it, and quickly dumped it into the cauldron. James and Sirius shivered as they put the bags into the garbage.

They walked over to the cauldron and looked inside fearfully.

"Essence el la Snape," Sirius muttered shivering.

James then pulled out the last ingredient: Essence of Aloe, to give it a nice smell. Mind you, they put a lot of it in, to rid the smell of the greasy lock of hair.

They then, carefully poured in their master piece, into the shampoo bottle. They quickly grabbed them and quietly and unseen returned them to their rightful place. Content with they accomplished mission, they went to sleep.

Next Day

Girls Dormitory

Tess entered the bathroom that Saturday morning, humming a soft cheery tune. She walked over to the sink and grabbed her face cream, as she put her hair up, so her dark brown hair wouldn't get in the way. She then applied the cream to her face, still humming happily.

After she completed that, she started to brush her teeth, still humming. She took her final spit of toothpaste and looked up in the mirror.

She screamed loudly, and Alice came in quickly.

"What happ – Oh Merlin!" she exclaimed, looking at Tess' face.

Tess' face was cover in boils (once again). They were pussing and blistering. Her face was very red. She started to cry at the sight of her face. Alice looked horrified at the sight of her face. It was extremely gross. Alice frantically, grabbed Tess' arm, and rushed her to the hospital wing without telling the other three.

Later that Night

Britney placed down her magazine. "I need a shower," she complained.

Lily smiled. "Me too," they got up and headed for the showers. They each went into separate ones.

They talked, then Lily used her shampoo. It smelled really good.

"That smells good Lils, can I use it?" asked Britney.

"Sure," said Lily. Lily put the shampoo bottle outside Britney's shower, and Britney got out and got it. She applied it to her hair. Lily then got out of the shower, as did Britney.

Lily and Britney then quickly got into their pyjamas and started washing up for bed. Alice entered the dormitory and looked around for Britney and Lily. Daisy was on her bed reading.

"Lily? Britney?" called out Alice.

"We're in here!" said Lily's voice, coming from the bathroom. Alice's eyes widened as she banged open the door, causing Lily and Britney to jump. Lily was now rubbing in the same cream Tess used that very morning.

"DON'T USE THAT CREAM!" yelled Alice.

"Why?" asked Lily bemused. She then turned to the mirror, to see her face covered in boils. She screamed loudly. Daisy came rushing into the bathroom looking wide-eyed at the two.

"What?' snapped Britney. She looked at Lily, not only were there boils, but her hair was moving madly. "That's not supposed to happen," muttered Britney frowning.

"Britney! Your hair!" Lily said pointing at Britney's hair. She quickly turned to the mirror to find her hair, (like Lily's) worm like. Her hair was moving around wildly like snakes. Britney screamed so loud people in the common room, looked up in the direction of the Girl's dormitory.

James and Sirius started laughing loudly. Remus frowned and looked at the two. "What did you do?" he asked.

James and Sirius couldn't answer. They quickly got up and, unseen, tapped the brick for them to walk up the stairs, they rushed up there. James arrived first.

His eyes widened as he saw Lily and Britney frantically talking quickly with Alice and Daisy.

Did he really do that? Sirius came in shortly after and at the sight of Britney and Lily, made him laugh louder and harder. Britney and Lily snapped their attention to the laughter.

"How did you get up here?" asked Britney angrily.

"Magic," Sirius managed to say. Suddenly, the dormitory door opened once again, except the occupants who entered, were Professor Dumbledore, Professor McGonagall and Madame Pomfrey.

James winced.

"Oh my," said Madame Pomfrey at the sight of the two girls. She walked over quickly to them. "Hmm, didn't a girl in your year get the same boils this morning?" She asked.

"Yes," said Alice for Lily. Professor McGonagall looked at James and Sirius.

"What are you two doing here? Get out!" She snapped at them.

"No, Minerva, let them stay," said Professor Dumbledore calmly. Sirius held back his laughter.

"What is with my hair?" Britney asked Professor Dumbledore.

"Ask Mr. Potter and Mr. Black," said Professor Dumbledore examining them. Britney turned to glare at them. They just stared dumbly at them.

"Well?" she demanded.

"Well, what?" asked Sirius.

"My hair!" she exclaimed.

"What's wrong with it?" Sirius asked.

Britney was now infuriated.

She walked over to him, ready to hurt him. But Dumbledore stepped in front of her.

"I think it looks beautiful!" Sirius said happily. Britney glared.

"Stay," Dumbledore said to Britney quietly.

Madame Pomfrey waved her wand and their hair went back to normal. "Miss Evans, you'll have to come with me back to the hospital wing!" said Madame Pomfrey. Lily scowled.

3 Days Later

"Ok Ms. Horta, you can go now," said Madame Pomfrey to Tess on Friday night. Since the incident with the cream, Tess had being fuming. Tess stormed out of the hospital wing, with Lily about ten feet behind her. Tess stormed all the way to the Gryffindor common room.

Soon as she entered, she saw James and Sirius laughing loudly in the corner, looking at a piece of parchment. Tess stormed over to them, and they looked up and smiled when they saw her.

"Hello, what service may we do for you?" Sirius asked cockily.

"I hate you both," Tess said quietly.

James looked behind Tess to see Lily walking gracefully up to the Girls dormitory, boil free.

"I hate you too!" Sirius said. He went back to his parchment, but Tess grabbed it.

Sirius and James looked up at her. "Are you going to be a bully?" asked James.

"Yes! This is the second time you got me in boils!" Tess yelled.

"Yes, well, we can't help it if you look the same with or without boils," Sirius said squinting his eyes, while looking at her face.

Tess kicked them both very hard in the shins.

"Ow," said James rubbing his shin. James stood up. "That was very rude!" James said.

Tess then punched James so hard in the face he fell back.

"JAMIE!" Sirius yelled dramatically. Sirius leaned over James, and started to pretend to cry. Then he soon broke out into a laugh. "You just got punched by a girl!" Sirius said laughing. James slowly got up.

"Ok," he panted. "No more," he said slowly. Tess just glared at him even more. "I give up, your face looks beautiful without and with boils!"

"James! Your not suppose to give in," Sirius said reminding James.

"Did you just get punched?" James snapped. Sirius got up beside James, and before he even got to stand up properly, Tess kicked him hard in the groin.

"OW!" yelped Sirius very loudly. He fell on his knees, and lay down there whining.

All the girls were now chuckling slightly. The boys just scrunched up their faces, knowing the pain.

Sirius was lying on the floor groaning and moaning.

"Ok! Ok! I'm sorry," he panted. James sat down quickly, before Tess got any more ideas.

She glared, turned on her heel and stomped up the stairs to the girls' dormitory.

"That was pretty pathetic," James said to the groaning Sirius.

"Yeah," he whined.

"You ok?" James asked chuckling.

"Erm," Sirius thought he sat up slowly. "I think," he said looking into his trousers.

A/N: The whole prank idea was the one and only's (aks100 a.k.a anna) idea. I was stuck and she gave me the idea. Next chapter is the last, and probably the shortest. But I'm writing 5th year, and at the moment, before I go to school, I'm writing. I think I'll put them all into school now. I'm on chapter 5, and it's going pretty good...I'll give you a sneak peak:

"Will you dance with me?" James asked her as he stood up from under the table, a few people looking at them strangely as they exited from under the table.

"No," Lily said, as she turned around and headed in a direction she hoped Britney would be.

"Why not?" James asked. "I dare you," James said as he followed her.

"I don't do dares," Lily said as she looked for Britney's brown hair.

"Everyone does," James said.
