CHAPTER 12
Before the stalkers knew it, it was the Christmas holidays. There was one last Hogsmead Weekend before the holidays.
After must protest, Raven broke down and went with Hermione, Harry and Ron to do their Christmas shopping. They had planned that they took it in turns to distract Raven as one got her a Christmas present. Raven however, didn't buy anything. They thought that she had already bought the Christmas gifts.
They entered Weasley's wizarding wheezes as it started to snow.
"Are the beautiful Queen Raven." Announced Fred.
"Forget it Fred I wont go out with you, and I'm not accepting the throne, so if you call me queen again, you will never have the chance to have kids."
"We'll be good." Said the two holding their 'family jewels'.
"By the way I have an order to collect." Said Raven.
"Oh yeah, are you sure you want these?" asked Fred and George.
Raven gave them an evil glare that told them to behave and mind their own business. Which they duly did.
The others were looking for something for Raven while all this was happening.
"Do you think she would like a headless hat?"
"NO!!!"
"What about a few canary creams?"
"NO!!!"
"Fine you choose what she might like."
"What who might like?" asked George as Raven was beating Fred up for almost pulling a prank on Harry.
"We're trying to get a present for Raven."
"Who about these? It's a new product, its called flower power. You give her the flowers, she plants them, and then they squirt water at the closest person to it."
"I don't think we would live long enough to laugh at her if we did that." Said Hermione as she looked at Fred who was on the ground in a ball and shaking from Raven's attack.
"Let's go before she kills Fred and goes after George." Said Harry.
"But I wanna see George get beaten up by a girl." Said Ron
"Let's go." Announced Raven.
"Yes ma'am." Said Ron.
They left hogsmead in time for the feast.
After the feast, the stalkers went outside as Shadow, Leo, Fang and Amber.
The wondered around the forest, met up with aragog, and chatted with the centaurs.
It was about 3am the next day when they got to sleep in the common room, all leaning against someone for a pillow or a blanket.
"Merry Christmas!!!" yelled Ron into Harry and Raven's ear.
"I shall kill whoever woke me up!"
"Harry did it "said Ron in a desperate attempt to get out of trouble.
Raven forgot about getting mad with Ron, and went up for a shower.
"Hey, guys, did you get a present from Raven?" asked Hermione.
"I got two."
"Me too."
"Let's open them."
They opened the presents to find that they were glass sculptures of them and their animal forms.
"These are beautiful." Said Hermione.
"Wonder where she got them?" Said Ron.
"Got what?" said Raven as she walked into the room.
"Where did you get these? There beautiful."
"I didn't buy them if that's what you're asking." Announced Raven.
"Then who gave us these?" asked Harry.
"I did, I made them in my spare time."
"Well, thanks Ray."
The rest of the presents included the sweaters from Mrs Weasley and the pies, the customary rock cakes from Hagrid, and the broken nose from Raven to Ron when he tried to steal a kiss under the mistletoe.
Later that day, they were fooling around in the forest, when they met up with Hagrid. (They were in their animal forms at the time so he didn't recognize them.)
"Well 'ello there, now aren' ye cute." Said Hagrid as he lifted Raven off the ground. Soon, Harry, Ron and Hermione came up to Hagrid as well.
"Let's get ya out a tha cold before ya freeze now."
Hagrid took them all into his hut and gave them a nice warm place for them to curl up and sleep for a while.
When they next woke up, it was getting late in the afternoon, and Hagrid was supposed to meet them for tea.
"Now where 'ave those kids gotten to? They were supposed to meet me here 20 minutes ago wif some sorta surprise or sumfing,"
The stalkers opened their mind link, and discussed whether or not they should show Hagrid.
Hagrid got the shock of his life when the little woodland creatures had turned into Harry, Hermione and Ron.
"Wotcha Harry! You almost gave me a heart attack or sumfing."
"Sorry Hagrid, umm did you know that I had a cousin?"
"I know you used to have cousins, but you know they were all killed Harry. You know that."
"Not all of them, Hagrid, I'd like you to meet my cousin Raven."
"Raven had just come though the door, yawning (she had just woken up (late night studying))
"Hey Hagrid."
"Raven? Is that the little thing that I held in me arms when you were 9 months old? Well you have certainly grown a lot. Are you taking da throne?"
Raven was lost for words, so she just shook her head.
"What's this throne every one's talking about?" said Ron, as he edged closer and closer to the cake Hagrid had on the table.
"Raven's future Queen a Egypt. You of all people should know that Ron, seeing as Bill's a curse breaker there."
"ohh... I knew that..... just tell me again to refresh my memory......... why are you?"
"Because im betrothed stupid. I don't wanna marry a guy at this age. I don't really have plans for marriage."
They chatted, until it was time for the Christmas feast, which Hagrid escorted them all back to the school, after promising not to tell anyone they were unregistered Animagi.
