Harry Potter and the Real Dark Lord
Chapter 6
Pranks and Consequences
A/N: have you figured out who was listening yet? Was that weird when Harry and Draco were like the twins? I mean, really, who would have thunk it? Oh well, keep reading if you chose. This chapters gonna be weird
Ps: we have been inspired by the other goddess, Saerry Snape-we bow to your talent.
Oh Yea! Saerry- thanky, thanky, you are our inspiration!
Disclaimer: Yea, everything HP wise belongs to the Goddess JK and everyone else involved. Besides, what can they do? Sue me? I'm a minor and have nothing so I guess they'll have to go after my dad as my mom has no money either. Details, details, (sigh). Now on with the show!
The following morning, Harry and Draco both awoke a lot earlier than the rest of the dorm. With equal looks of delight, Draco asked "You ready?" Harry gave a brief nod and smirked, "Let's do it! We can't let them be first!"
The two boys silently got dressed and headed out of the dorm. When the arrived in the deserted common room they looked at each other. "Which one should we do first?" Asked Draco. Harry thought for a long time and then replied "The truth potion should work out splendidly." Draco looked at him in astonishment for a moment the burst out into laughter. "You are so wrong ya know that don't you?" Harry simply smiled in return. "We need to know what people are hiding."
The two boys crept down to the potions room with the aid of Harry's map. Once they found what they were looking for, they snuck into the kitchens. They silently added the potion to every single beverage they could find with the help of Harry's invisibility cloak. When they finally finished, they exited the kitchens and re-entered the hallway. Harry threw off the cloak and stuffed it into his bag. The boys looked at each other for a minute and burst out laughing. When they though that they were done it only took a look at the other for them to start again. Finally Harry gasped, "We need to get to the Great Hall for breakfast, otherwise we might be suspected." Draco simply nodded that he understood, he was laughing too hard to utter a coherent word. On their way there, Draco got a hold of himself and asked him, "What do you think is gonna happen?" Harry glanced at him and simply replied, "Don't know but it should be interesting." The two boys continued to snigger but kept it in when they entered the Great Hall. As they entered, they spotted Fred and George already seated at the Gryffindor table. With a brief smile and wave, Harry and Draco headed over to the Slytherins table.
As soon as they sat down, they realized the extent of their prank. People seemed to be losing their heads. Hagrid was telling Professor Sprout that she was his one true earth mate; first years were confessing their every fear to bewildered prefects. Ron Weasley was telling Hermione Granger that he loved her and wanted to marry her. When the two boys sat down at the table a befuddled Pansy calmly stated that she wanted to have a three-some with the two. "SHIT!" Draco exclaimed, "Did you know this would happen?" Harry was so busy laughing at Crabbe and Goyle hugging each other that he merely shook his head, nodding over at the two. Meanwhile, Pansy was in a snit being ignored by her two men. As both boys could not even eat they decided to go to potions early. They barely made it out into the hall, they were laughing so hard. The last thing they heard was George and Fred arguing over who loved some girl named Angelina more.
"Oh, they are so going to hate us after this." Harry gasped, trying to get his breath back. "Ya think they'll realize it was us?" Draco had tears streaming down his face. He was clutching his sides too. "Only if the Journal tells them-I hate to see what their reaction will be." The two headed into the potions room and found Professor Diggle already there. "Ah, boys, come in. come in." Harry and Draco came in and sat down. "These chairs are like stone!" yelled the dynamic duo. "Stones!" mumbled Diggle, "I know of a great stone! It's called the Sorcerer's Stone and it is right here in the castle! Remarkable really, a big favor to Nick Flamel ya know. Gotta hide it from You-Know Who. Ah... Dumbledore is the best one for that anyway. Got it hidden quite nicely he does." "Really!" Harry and Draco exchanged glances here. "Yes! In that forbidden corridor on the third floor! Shame that damn three headed dog is guarding it." "Well," said Harry, "I wonder what that is all about." Harry said very slowly. Clearly, the potion wasn't wearing off anytime soon. "Well, I can tell you. Right now in fact. What it does is-" But unfortunately they were cut off the bell. "Damn," whispered Harry. "Meet me in the library after homework and prank duty," Said Draco in an equally hushed voice. "Let's find out more about that stone once and for all and who might want it."
The entire day was spent in total chaos. Students who not professing their love to unsuspecting friends, were otherwise spent with of an orgy of the house elves in the kitchens, thus delaying the mid-day meal and throwing off the class schedule. Fred and George had decided that they liked Katie better, and were seen arguing in the entrance hallway. Harry and Draco walked passed them with a mere "Good afternoon gentleman" and sniggered the whole way to their seats. This seemed to break up the twins' tension with each other. "Dammit! I can't believe they beat us too it! Snag the snarkles of heaven! We've got a lot of work ahead of us. Hmmm, isn't our first Qudditch match against Slytherin?" Asked Fred. "Why I believe it is my dear brother, I do believe it is." The two exchanged a look and replied as one to each other, "WE GOT PLANNING TO DO!" The two could be seen with their heads together whispering frenetically throughout the rest of the meal. The four boys wound up leaving at the same time. "Good one, guys, good one. How long it supposed to last any way?" Asked Fred. "Oh, everyone will by back to normal by morning at the latest, it seems the effects last longer on some." As the re-entered the entrance hall, they noticed a new sign posted that read:
ATTENTION ALL STAFF AND SUDENTS!
DUE TO THE DISRUPTION IN THE KITCKENS TODAY
THE LAST CLASS WILL BE CANCELLED IN ORDER
TO MAKE UP FOR LOST TIME AND
FOR SOME STUDENTS TO RECOVER
THANK YOU ALL FOR YOUR TIME.
THE HOGWART'S HEADMASTER
When the four boys saw the notice they all started howling with laughter and after exchanging breathless "See Ya's" they headed to their respective classes for what was left in the day. Harry was still chuckling at the sulking Pansy and the Crabbe and Goyle trying to hold hands.
A/N Wasn't planning on ending here but got Trolls and Qudditch coming up. And what and when will they find out about the stone? So… What'd ya think? Continue R/R could use some feedback on upcoming pranks. Wanted to post before it gets too long. What to readers want? Longer chapters or short ones more frequently?
