Takes place during 2nd year summer while Harry is walking 'home' from the shops getting milk. (Yeah, I made it up) T

This is just the linking chapter to the next.

Oh, and I ransacked the house but couldn't find Harry Potter ownership anywhere, though I did find a rather disturbing picture of chewing gum, toast and socks…

Brake-cables and Scissors

"Hey Harry!" Harry Potter spun round, he knew that voice and sure enough running up to him were two girls that he recognised as those he saw now and then, often followed with their rum-loving friend. He called the one who had hugged Lockhart Loopy and the other Loony; rum-lover was called Pinkie as he never saw her out of that colour.

"Err…hi" he wasn't really sure what to say, they only ever showed up to cause mayhem and although it was rather humorous he decided to never get on their bad side lest he end up like Larkhart.

His brow creased in confusion before realising who was missing, "Hey, where's Pinkie?"

"Who?" Loony asked as she grabbed Loopy's coat to stop her chasing someone carrying jelly tots,

"I don't know what her name is, I call her Pinkie, she rides the bike" Harry explained, a little embarrassed that he had said the nickname out loud.

"Oh" Loopy replied, giving up her chase for the jelly tots and joining the other two walking, "She had an accident on the bike, when she first came round she said something about brake-cables and scissors"

Kate whistled innocently chucking a tangle of wire and a pair of chipped scissors in an old lady's stroller when they passed its confused owner.

I'll update ASAP, but I'll update my stories based on how many reviews I get. The more reviews I get on one the quicker I'll update it. Not bribery, I just need some order in my life.

Anyways, TTFN!
