Sirius had been slightly worried about Hannaway's words to him in the hall, but he had a prank ready, just for her. The plan was simple, yet hilariously embarrassing to her if it worked. He had told Andrea, Tyler and Dalton this plan so far, but no one else, as it might get out if he told it to the wrong person.
His plan was simple; it consisted of him taking a galleon and using a simple sticking charm that Ron had taught him, and sticking the galleon to the floor, right in the doorway that led into the great hall. It was simple, yet sweet. The perfect prank, Sirius thought as he ate dinner.
He smiled over at Hannaway, who was oblivious to the fact that in only a few days she would be the laughing stock of the entire school. Well either that or everyone would hate her and laugh at her.
"Sirius? Are you in there?" Asked Dalton, interrupting his thoughts. Shaking himself mentally he replied that yes he was there.
"Good." Said Keith. "We only saw you staring at Hannaway with a some what dazed expression, and we thought something might 'ave been wrong. We thought that she might have slipped you a love potion, or something."
Sirius shook his head and grinned. Andrea burst out laughing, and Keith and Rufus exchanged odd looks, as they didn't know the plan. Dalton who had started watching Nearly Headless Nick have an epic battle with the Bloody Baron sometime after he had asked Sirius if he was alright, asked what was so funny. Sirius merely responded by jerking his head in the direction of the Slytherin table, and Dalton nodded and grinned, although Sirius was sure that he had no idea what was going on.
That night the foursome decided when they would pull their prank. It was decided that in three days they would stick down the galleon, because if they did it to early then Hannaway would still be suspicious of them. Also, if they did it too late, she wouldn't know what it was for and who it came from.
For the rest of the night they simply did their potions essay about sleeping draughts that was required to be a foot and half long. Sometime in the middle of this, Rufus showed up and said that he had missed dinner because he had a detention, and was hungry.
"And what was this detention for?" Sirius asked. Rufus blushed bright pink. "Um, well I had to use the restroom, and well you know how on the fifth floor the boys and girls bathrooms are right next to each other, right?" Everyone nodded. "Well, I went into the ladies on accident. All of them screamed and one must've gone off and told McGonagall about it." Sirius, Tyler and Dalton laughed so hard that there were tears in their eyes. Andrea covered her mouth but it was obvious that she also found it hilarious. Keith, who was just walking in through the portrait hole asked Rufus what was so funny, and of course he told Keith the story and Keith roared with laughter, earning the hysteric group many odd looks. When they finally had their laughing in check Sirius told them about the kitchen.
"Only a few of us can go, or else we'll be noticed; besides it's getting close to eight, and if we get caught after hours, we'll have a week of detentions." Everyone nodded. "So, who wants to go with me and Rufus?" Andrea volunteered to stay behind, saying that she had to work on her assignment for transfiguration, and Tyler also volunteered to stay behind.
Sirius, Keith, Dalton and Rufus all set out down the hall, Sirius leading. When he reached the picture of a fruit bowl, he reached up and tickled the pear, hoping that it would work. And sure enough it did, and as they stepped in many house elves came running, each carrying a tray two times larger than them.
"What do you wish for, my fine sirs?" Asked what appeared to be the chief elf, in a high squeaky voice.
"Uh, I'll have some chicken legs and a caesar salad." Rufus replied. The house elves looked to Sirius. "Oh, I'll just have a butterbeer if it's alright with you." The house elf nodded. "We'll have the same as him." Dalton and Keith said, pointing to Sirius.
"Very well." Said the house elf, who then ushered them to a table in front of a gigantic fire. The four boys talked and laughed until Rufus had finished his meal. They all thanked the house elves and returned to the common room.
"Have fun?" Andrea asked. "Yeah, it was great! There were all of these house elves all rushing around taking orders, and the food was delicious!" Rufus said with excitement. All of the boys nodded. "Hey, Sirius how did you learn about that place anyway?" Keith asked. "Oh, Ron told me." "Cool." They spent a few minutes cleaning up their essays and then headed to sleep.

Sirius woke extra early, at four thirty, and went down to meet Andrea. Dalton and Tyler had decided that it was too early, and that they would rather sleep in. When Sirius was ready the two headed off in the direction of the great hall.
When they reached it Sirius pulled out a galleon and Andrea performed the sticking charm, sticking the coin to the middle of the floor underneath the archway. High-fiving each other, they slipped behind a nearby suit of armor and waited.
An hour or so later Hannaway strolled into the great hall, without noticing the coin. Sirius and Andrea scowled. "Let's go in. We can eat and see if she finds it on the way out." Sirius nodded okay, and they walked past the Slytherin, who sneered at them, to their table.
The two ate, and then watched as Hannaway walked out. Sirius sighed it didn't work. And then, to their amazement Hannaway came back and stared down at the galleon. Sneering at the two of them, she said "My, my, it must be my lucky day, found a galleon. Too bad you didn't find it first, could've given it to your mudblood friend so she could get some decent robes." Sirius only glowered back at her, trying to hold back laughter.
The Slytherin bent over and tugged at the coin. She kept trying. A few minutes later there was a crowd of students watching her efforts to pick up the galleon. A few grew annoyed and started yelling at the girl to get on with it and let them in. Hannaway payed no mind and continued to try to pry up the coin, to no effect. After a while the whole school was waiting for the annoying first year to move so that they could get to their breakfast, until finally McGonagall came and told Hannaway to leave the coin and let everyone through. She obeyed and everyone laughed as she walked away defeated. For the next few weeks everyone talked about how hilarious it was to see the stupid Slytherin first year trying to pry up a galleon that was obviously stuck. Sirius and Andrea were especially proud of their work, and Sirius even wrote to Ron about his prank. It was just as he had planned it, and as Ron would say, Fred and George would be proud.
