Molly ran towards platform 9 ¾, all of her sons and her daughter trailing behind.

"Come on!! The train is leaving in like, 2 minutes," she screamed as she raced through the entrance. The twins stopped and glanced at each other.

"Here we go," and they ran through. Their eyes widened, and they were amazed at the amount of people crowding the train.

"Guess we better go find a seat, eh George?"

"Yeah, reckon so," Fred's vivacious twin replied. They hauled their bulging trunks on the train and left to find a seat. They slid open a compartment door and walked in to find it occupied by two girls.

"We're very sorry." George began.

"We didn't realize there" Fred continued.

"Was anyone here."

"We'll be leaving now."

"Oh! No, it's ok. Please, do stay. I'm Angelina, and that's Katie."

"Nice to meet you. We're"

"Gred and Foerge, er…. I mean Fred and

"George." Fred finished, blushing slightly. The two girls in front of them were laughing hysterically.

"Are you always like that," the creature called Katie asked.

"Like what," they chorused.

"Like that! Finishing each others sentences, or saying the same thing at the same time. It's quite funny," Angelina answered. The twins grinned.

"Sorry, we don't even notice it anymore, it just comes natural."

"Well, sit down. There's no point in making you stand the whole ride." They obliged, and took a seat, then grinned.

"Would you like a candy?" They each offered a girl. The girls swooned and delicately took their piece, quickly popping it in their mouths. The boys grins widened, and they stared at the girls intently – Angelina was the first to react. Her eyes grew wide, and she turned to Fred, slightly salivating. Fred eyed her carefully. They'd just thrown in a couple of ingredients together, and weren't sure what the outcome would be. They would find out quickly. Angelina quickly leaned forward and placed a wet, sloppy kiss on Fred's lips moments before Katie did the same to George. Their eyes widened for a second before they pulled away and started giggling like madmen. Katie and Angelina stared at them, their faces amazed.

"Holy crap! How the heck did you get us to do that," Angelina burst out

"Yeah, that was totally awesome," Katie added. The twins faces of incredulity turned into faces of wonder.

"You're not mad," Fred's amazement was clear in his voice.

"Of course not, silly! That was the best practical joke ever," Katie almost screamed at Fred. His grin was about as wide as possible.

"Fred, I think we've found em." Fred merely nodded to his brothers statement.

The rest of the train ride when pretty uneventful, unless you count the twins hexing the cart lady so that her hair flashed a different color every 5 seconds or so, and slipping some make-out candy on the cart while she was distracted.

The whole time Angelina and Katie watched with amazement, their eyes full of humor.

The Sorting Hat

The two redheads walked into the castle, held in awe at the beauty of it all. From above, a loud cackling was heard, and they just managed to get away when a huge balloon full of bright red paint splashed right where they had been standing. They looked up to reveal a very happy ghost doing a little dance, however it stopped as soon as it noticed the two.

"So I did miss? Dang. Your hair led me to believe I hit. Oh well." He started to float away when the pair called him back. They checked to make sure no one saw them, then ran off to confer with the ghost.

"Ok, I am Professor McGonagall. Welcome to Hogwarts first years!" She paused as a loud cheer rang out. "Yes, yes I know. We're all very excited to have you here. Now, while you are here you shall al be part of a house. The houses are Gryffindor, Ravenclaw, Slytherin, and Hufflepuff. As you go throughout your years here, you will be able to earn points. Responsible behavior earns you points, while troublemaking will lose them." She looked directly at Fred and George, who had just gotten back from their meeting with the ghost called Peeves. "Also, you will be staying in dormitories with four of your classmates. These classmates will be your family. I expect you to treat them just as you would treat your favorite brother or sister." Fred's grin kept getting nastier and nastier. This would be fun. "Now, let's go in to be sorted. Follow me please." They all trooped into the great hall, and Bill, Charlie, and Percy grinned at the twins.

Professor McGonagall left for a moment, and then quickly returned bearing a large tatty hat. The hat began to speak!!!

"I know what you are thinking, what an ugly hat but let me tell you a little more than that.
Long long ago, 4 wizards started to stitch and sew. Here is the result this is what they have made, a hat with a brain.

I also have a mouth that used to tell about the 4 houses and all their fame.
Let's start at the top with mighty Gryffindor who are brave and always determined galore. They were born leaders and will always keep a fair score.

Next in line we have wise Ravenclaw. In that house you will find the best of every mind. They manage to solve the toughest problems and are never afraid to be the first to raise their hand.

And who could forget Great Hufflepuff. They shine with loyalty and will be sure to see you through. Through thick and thin they are with you to the end you will never find a Hufflepuff that is untrue.

Finally there is Slytherin the most cunning of the bunch. With eyes for trouble, they are sure to please and become noticed with ease. The Slytherins always tend to make up their own rules.

Now come on up and pop me on. With just one look I will tell you where you belong." McGonnagal rose and spoke.

"When I call your name, come up and place the hat on your head. Acker,

Stephen."

The list went forever, and the twins were getting bored. The only thing keeping them from pranking the Slytherins was Percy's evil glare. Finally, the crotchety old teacher barked out,

"Weasley, Fred." Grinning, Fred plopped down on the stool and shoved the hat on his head.

"Well well, another Weasley I see. You are different from the rest however. You've got a cunning streak in you. You could do very well in Slytherin. I also sense a smart side in you, a side for creating things. I fear you would terrify the Ravenclaws, however. You are also very loyal. Hufflepuff could be a great house with you in it. Most of all though, I sense a great amount of bravery. Though you may be suited for each house, your bravery and loyalty exceed all. Gryffindor!" Fred jumped up, his look contemplating.

"Very good, now…… Ah yes. Weasley, George!" George quickly followed the steps of his brother and found himself with the hat on his head.

"Haven't I talked to you already?" The hat paused, "no, you are different. You're the quiet thinker. You are better suited for Ravenclaw, but I can see I shouldn't separate you. Gryffindor!" George's grin turned to one of relief and he ran over to his table and jumped on his brothers. Just as George sat next to his twin, a large group of pixies came floating in and formed the words:'Long Live the Weasleys!', then everyone on the table's hair turned a bright red that matched the now infamous Weasley hair. At the rest of the tables, everyone's robes turned into the Gryffindor gold and burgundy. Just at the peak of the chaos, when no one thought it could be any worse, Peeves came floating in with little bobblehead toys of Fred and George and started chucking them at students and teachers alike, screaming,

"Here, have a Weasley!" 10 or so minutes later, the chaos had calmed, Fred and

George had received a detention and the list had started again. Finally the food came and the twins stared at the potions master with rapt attention.

Charlie and Bill looked on with distrust on their faces, and Percy just ignored them. The two troublemakers quickly looked away as Snape jumped up and marched to the middle of the great hall. All eyes were on him and it was so quiet you could have heard a pin drop. Students started sniggering as Snape snapped into a ballerina pose, then laughed outright when he started singing.

"I've got a lovely bunch of coconuts

Here they are a standing in a row

Big ones, small ones, some as big as your head." His mouth snapped shut and he turned to glare at the Gryffindor table.

"WEASLEY!" he bellowed, his face turning an interesting purple color.

"What?" five voices asked him, each full of pure innocence.

"I know it was you," he said glared at the twins, then stormed out of the Great Hall, followed by the ridiculing laugh of his students
