Notes/Warning: One OC named Leila Smith that I created. This fic takes place during Fred and George Weasley's first year at Hogwarts. There might be a little O.O.C. but I tried to stay in character as much as possible.
Chapter 1- The Troublesome Trio
It was a week into the new school year for the students as Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Many of the students were still unfamiliar with the school, but two first year boys from Gryffindor knew their way around the school as if they've been there all their lives. Within that one week, the red-headed twins had been seen everywhere; from Charms class to the kitchens to the dungeons.
They had met pretty much every teacher in the school; losing house points in the process most of the time. The duo had been officially dubbed the 'Trouble-makers' of the school. They did everything they could, as often as they could.
This morning was no different. The two walked into the Great Hall for breakfast. The ceiling, reflecting the weather outside, was clear and sunny. A great day to do some damage. As they sat down they heard everyone talking about a girl named Leila Smith. Supposedly she pulled off a major prank without getting caught by Filch; something to do with flooding the girls' toilet down the second corridor.
"What's with this girl, Leila? She's taken our glory," Fred Weasley said as he piled food onto his plate.
"How am I supposed to know?" George Weasley replied. "What do you know about her, Lee?"
"She's a first year like us. She's half-and-half; muggle mum. She's been really quiet until now," Lee Jordan told the two. "She's sitting next to Oliver Wood."
The twins looked at the girl sitting on the far side of Oliver. She had short, sandy-brown hair and an athletic build. George looked closer and saw cobalt blue eyes. She looked up at the twins and smiled at them. They smiled back awkwardly and looked back at Lee.
"Isn't she in our classes?" Fred asked. "I've never seen her before."
"I think she's the one that always sat in the back and never said or did anything," George answered.
"We need her to join us; otherwise we need to out-prank her."
"I agree," George said as the bell rang, meaning breakfast was over and everyone headed to their morning classes. "Let's talk to her at lunch."
The three made their way to their History of Magic class with Professor Binns. No one liked him. For one, he was a ghost, and two, his voice was monotone. After attending Herbology and Care of Magical Creatures out on the grounds, the students headed to the Great Hall for lunch.
"There she is," Fred said, pointing to the girl who was talking with someone from Ravenclaw.
"Yo, Leila!" George yelled to get her attention.
She turned around and said, "I'm a little busy."
"That's okay," the Ravenclaw student said. "I need to go anyway. See you later."
"See you, Emma," Leila said before facing the twins again. "I'm surprised you know me."
"Well, you DID out-smart Filch, which is something we haven't been able to do yet," George stated, smiling.
"What do you want?"
"You mind teaming up with us to pull a prank?" Fred asked.
"Why?" she asked, eyeing the red-heads.
"Because we can't have some girl stealing our glory," Fred answered.
"No," she said flatly.
"I was joking. The three of us would make a great team!"
"Will I get recognized for this?"
"Of course," George answered, smiling.
"Then I'll help," she answered after a moment of silence.
"Watch out everyone, here comes the Troublesome Trio!" Fred yelled as the other two started laughing.
The three walked out to the grounds and sat along the edge of the lake. They spent the rest of the lunch break talking about their families. The twins were surprised with what they learned about the girl. Considering how her personality was before attending Hogwarts, you'd think she was a completely different person. She lived in London with her parents and younger brother, Jordan. Supposedly her father never told her mother that he was a wizard until she was born, 11 years ago. Her parents told her three years ago that she would most likely end up going to Hogwarts once she turned 11. Just then, the bell rang out to the grounds signaling the end of lunch. The three stood up and walked into the school and headed towards Charms class with the Ravenclaws.
After Defense Against the Dark Arts and Transfiguration class, the twins and Leila ran up to the Gryffindor common room to drop off their things and fill their robe pockets with dungbombs and Dr. Filibuster's Fabulous Wet-start, No-heat Fireworks, moving quickly. Then the trio headed towards the kitchens.
"How do you know where the kitchens are?" Leila asked the back of George's head.
"We know the school like the back of our hands," Fred answered to her left.
Once they got to the kitchen corridor, they emptied their pockets and let the dungbombs and fireworks off. They stood there for a minute, admiring their work, and ran to the Great Hall for dinner.
From the moment they entered the hall to when they sat down, other students high-fived the trio and complimented them for their prank.
"It wasn't THAT hard," George smiled as he received a compliment from a fourth year Gryffindor girl.
"Is it true that you joined up with Leila Smith?" one of the Ravenclaw students asked.
"Yeah! She's pretty skilled," Fred answered, placing his arm around Leila's shoulders.
"So, when's the next show?" lee Jordan joked.
"You'll have to wait and find out, along with the rest of the school."
After dinner, as the trio headed back to the tower, they had a run-in with Argus Filch, the caretaker, and his cat, Mrs. Norris.
"You three, come with me." Filch led them off towards his office. Once they got there, Filch asked, "Did you enjoy setting off those things?"
"Yes, as a matter of fact, we did," Leila answered, mocking him.
"You're lucky I'm not allowed to use my old punishments with you brats."
Just then, Professor McGonagall walked into the office.
"Professor McGonagall!" the trio said in unison.
"Did you think you were going to weasel your way out of this one?" Filch growled.
"I've got this under control, Argus," McGonagall told him. "You three are going to be punished for this. You'll receive detention tomorrow night, and five points each from Gryffindor."
"But-" Leila started.
"No 'buts' Miss Smith," McGonagall said, interrupting the girl. "Do you understand?"
"Yes," the three students answered.
"Now, go to the common room, and stay out of trouble," she added with a smile.
"Yes ma'am," George said as the trio turned around and walked out of the office, heading to the Gryffindor common room.
"We've got to do this again!" Leila smiled as she said that.
"I agree with you on that," Fred said, smiling at the back of the girl's head.
"That's a first," George joked.
The three laughed at that and started devising their next prank as they entered the common room.
