(I know, slow updates. Don't worry. One more day of finals and I am free for the summer! I hope to finish this one soon. I probably wont let it go more than 30 chapters. This is a short one. I have gotten inspiration this weekend, so I just had to finish this one as kind of a filler. Well, actually, this chap had a vital message, but now I'm rambling. Go on, read!)

" Have you seen Dark, yet? " Harry asked Ron, laying on the floor of the Gryffindor common room.
" No. But she's been prancing around with her newest oddities.." Ron answered from a plush armchair
" Well, I hope Snape hasn't caught her. When he returned that Skrewt to Hagrid, he was shown the note Dark left. Hagrid only showed it to the git, becuase he thought Dark meant Snape was going to bring it back for her. Ol' Snapey went balistic... What do you mean by odities, mate?"
"Not sure really, they looked like pirate effects, knowing Dark. A sword and spyglass to go with her hat. " Ron told Harry.
The portriat hole swung open, letting Hermione into the room. " Have you seen Dark? I've just seen Professor Snape messing with her pirate gadgets." She asked. Ron and Harry looked at eachother.
"Er.."
Soon, the trio's attention drifted away from Dakota Smith and onto more important matters. For example: Anything besides Dakota Smith. That was until she so rudely shoved her way back into the discusion.
" I will kill that man!" Dark stormed into the room there was a black ring around her right eye. Answering the questioning looks her friends gave her, she huffed, " He put ink rings around the eyepiece of my telescope!" There was no need to clarify who "he" was.
She continued. "You know what I told him? I says, ' That is it! This will end. I will either pull the prank to top all pranks or I give up!' And then he's all like, ' Best give up, then Smith. I will have the last laugh. And when I do this war will be over. ' Can you beleive that smug arse-head!" Dark's face was red now. She had actually done a remarkable impression of Snape, though.
The next few days were filled with senseless pranking,. nothing worthy enough to be called "The prank to top all pranks", although shaving off Snape's eyebrows was almost up there. Dark, with much pride, would tell the story over and over. It's really one worth hearing.
" So, I pulled the ol' super cool spy trick where you get a room's password via Quick Quotes Quill. ( My brilliant-ness in it's prime) One would think he'd have found that one out, well, maybe he did this time, but on with the story. With my cunning pirate skills (no I don't mean ninja skills), I snuck into his room when he was asleep. Really, it was too easy, although I had a bit of trouble not waking him up by jumping on his bed. How fun would that have been?
Right, well I went to breakfast the next morning and I was suprised he was actually there. But he was all 'keep my head down-y', so later that day, while he was telling me off for de-eyebrowing him (In those exact words, I swear!) I told him I'd fix it. Fixing it actually turned out to be sharpie-ing him some spiffy new eyebrows."
Amazingly enough, the marker brows are still there on Severus's head as he contemplates his next move. When Dark happily assumed that he must have really enjoyed her artwork, he just glared and told her that it was because they wouldn't come off.
So where was I? Oh yes, the next few days were full of petty tricks and so on. Dark was sporting a green sharpie mustache and goatee, Snape had drawn on squiggly eyebrows, and neither of them had pulled off the Mega Prank. They were planning. This one had to be good. Today, they were so wrapped up in their mission, that they had no time for anything other than immature name calling.
" You crazy little midget pirate lover!"
" You evil billowy thing!"
" You immature name-caller!"
" Why do you sound so out of character, Sev!"
" Because our writer is lazy. And I am stooping to your level with all of this ridiculous name calling. But mostly because our writer is lazy." Severus glared nastily at the terrible author, who in return hung her head in shame.
And so it was silently agreed between the two of them.No, not that the author sucks, but that it was now finally on. A race to the ultimate prank. It had to be good. Good enough to make the other back down and surrender.

( So the race is on. Who will win? Will it be Dark? Snape? Like hell I'll tell you! Anyways, I have the end in my mind. It will be good. I just needed a chapter to kinda start the end. Anyways, I love all of you! Your reviews make me happy. Review, please! Love, Mole (yes, that's me) )
