Chapter One
It was a harsh December evening and everyone was in the great hall. That is, of course, excluding Fred and George who were always causing trouble.
"Quick, put the rest of them in the bag," George whispered.
"Are you sure you don't want to use all of them?" Fred asked.
"Of course I'm sure you idiot! Remember our plan for the Slytherin common room?"
"Oh yeah, of course"
"Really. You've been acting more moronic than usual ever since you walked in to the girls locker room, on 'accident', and saw her naked."
"Shut up! Someone's coming!"
Just as they both jumped into a decrepit cabinet in the potions classroom, Snape walked in. Peering suspiciously around the room for what seemed like decades, he left. After the sound of his footsteps ceased to echo through the halls, the twins crawled out of their hiding place.
"That was close! You alright, Fred?"
"Yeah. You?"
"Great! That'll be one to tell the grand-kids!"
"That is, of course," a cold voice hissed from the far corner of the room, "if you survive that long."
Draco Malfoy appeared, wand raised, walking toward them with an icy glare.
"Ava-"
"Petrificus Totalis!" a voice cried from the doorway.
Fred blushed redder than a cranberry when he saw whom it was, and looked away. Marie stood facing them with an emotionless expression.
"Don't expect me to be looking out for you next time."
She turned and walked out.
"Hey, don't worry about it Fred. I'm sure you guys will patch things up."
"I don't know," he replied sadly.
After erasing Draco's memory to the best of their seventh year ability, they lit the fireworks and left silently.
