Twin Power
Chapter 12: Christmas Part 2
A/N: I'm awfully sorry for the long time since my last update, I plan on finishing this story up within the next week. I plan on having this story being between thirty one and thirty three chapters. Please read and review. Donald
After a scrumptious breakfast and opening of all the presents, the students got ready for a day outside of fun in the snow. When the students reappeared downstairs with the other students, guests, and staff they went outside to put the teams together. The teachers will consist of all the adults that were there, while the students consisted of all kids that were there that were old enough to do it. The snowball fight went off without a hitch, and there was fun to have for all.
Lupin was hit with the first shot by no other than Alex Potter, who then got hit by his grandfather smack dab in the head. That got the ball going and it was all out war. There were no injuries, but they had a lot of people that were out after awhile do to the weather. The House Elves had hot chocolate and Egg Nog for the students and adults waiting for them in the Great Hall. The fight ended up being a 10 on 2 battle between, Alex and Nichole Potter, Blayne Potter, 3 Slytherin that had managed to keep there heads during the battle, and 2 each from both the Hufflepuff house and the Ravenclaws, that had stuck together from the beginning of the battle. Those ten were set against Harry and James Potter in the end, and the students were beginning to win, when the old and new Marauder alike started pulling pranks on them during the fight. They started pulling out some dung bombs inside of the snow balls, and that started the students to think that they weren't playing fair after it got down to only being the Potter children vs the Potter adults. At the end it was Harry and James vs Alex Nicky and Blayne, and it ended up with a lucky shot that Alex had against his father, that took him out, and then when it was three on one, they said one two three, and threw three of them at James and hit him square in the face, knocking off his feet, and the pig piled him, making him give.
After they all got up and kept on laughing, they went up to the castle victorious and into the great hall for lunch. As they sat down for lunch, the talk was about the fight and who had eventually won. Everyone was congratulating the twins and there uncle in the well won battle, and how they took and pig piled James in the end. Everyone enjoyed there lunch that day, even tho it was a small meal, because of the feast that was going to happen that night.
After everyone enjoyed there lunch that day, they went back out to start the competition for building snowmen. This contest was more fair for everyone, because they had the teams made up of all ages of contestants. The Marauders, and the second and third generation of them teamed up on one team, and it seemed that they were going good with their snowmen. They decided to do ones that represented their ani-magi forms, or what they thought that they should be. There was a Stag, a couple of Wolves, a Large Dog, a Phoenix, an Otter, Leopard, Cheetah and a couple of other things that weren't quite recognizable yet.
When all was said and done, the winners of the snowmen building contest were, Most Creative: Marauders. Most Beautiful: Hufflepuff. Most Scary: Slytherin. Most School Worthy: Ravenclaw. Best in Show: Tie between all four teams. All the teams were granted a full day off without anything required of them to do, they were allowed to go to Hogsmeade, as long as they were accompanied by at least one teacher or adult per group of five, and they had to go in groups of at least five. The students really didn't mind this, for they were happy to go there, especially those under third year. The students had fun, and were spending their time in the three broomsticks, zonkos, and the sweet shop. The Ravenclaws spent a lot of time in the book shops, and the library.
They ended up the day back at the castle celebrating the Christmas holidays with the Christmas feast. They had fun that day, and ended up sleeping well that night. Little did they know that LM was making plans for an attack on Hogsmeade coming up, and that they were going to be in the middle of it.
