Chapter 3: Sugar Rush
It was the next morning when the owls arrived.
Loky, my previously mentioned owl, arrived carrying a package.
"Hmm..." I said with a sly grin on my face. "Wonder what it could be." I set the package aside and notced that there was a note tied to Loky's leg.
I opened it and read:
Hey honey,
How are you and your sister getting along? I hope your having fun and I don't want to recieve any mail from any of your teachers telling me that your pulling pranks again. (Though I'm sure you won't get caught.)
Say hi to the twins for me and here's the candy you've requested.
"Open the package," said George, bouncing up and down like a five year old who's just ate a bag of candy.
"Would you chill?" I asked him. "I'll open it later."
I wrote my mother back asking if she could buy some more twix, butterfinger, milky way, and poprocks.
PS: I had no idea that muggle candy would be such a hit!
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
After breakfast I ran up to my dorm and jinxed the shocktarts to give people a jolt of electricity. I jinxed the sweet tarts to be sweet or tart depending on the persons over all attitude.
"Come on Aurora! We're-" called George.
"Gonna-" called both Fred and George.
"Be late!" finished Fred.
"Okay!" I called down. I stuffed the candy in my purse. (It still has the itching powder and the pop rocks.)
"Here, try these," I said taking out the recently jinxed candy.
The twins looked at eachoter and then at me and the candy. "Do you think we should?" asked Fred looking at the candy skepticly.
"Fine, lets try it out on Flint at dinner."
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
It was now time for dinner. The twins and I got to the hall before anyone else and layed the pop-rocks, shocktarts, and sweet tarts all over the Slytherin table. I also gave a couple sweet tarts to the twins after eating one myself.
"It's sweet," said Fred.
"And you called yourself a prankster," said the boys at the same time shaking their heads.
"Just wait and see boys," I said a grin creeping its way onto my face. "Just wait and see."
Other people finally started showing up in the Great Hall for dinner.
While waiting for the food you noticed some of the Slytherins trying out some of the candy.
"What the heck! It shocked me!"
I looked up to see Malfoy get a few jolts of electricity and started to laugh.
"Dang! That's like a lemon! What is it?" Malfoy again.
"Snape looks hot with tie-dye hair!" Lol. I looked over to see Parkinson freak after she said that.
"What's going on?" asked George in a whisper.
"Parkinson just ate a couple of the pop rocks I gave you guys on the train and Malfoy ate a shocktart and a sweet tart."
"What did you give us?"
"A sweet tart. I hexed them so they are either sweet or tart. It depends on the persons over all attitude. You two are sweet, charming, and sensitive so it reacted as sweet. Malfoy, on the other hand, is a low-life arrogant jerk which made the sweet tart react like a lemon."
Chione's POV
While all the excitement was going on at our table, I slipped a bottle of Veritaserum to Marcus. He was closer to Darcie than I was. The way I'd been acting lately I might just have knocked over her glass or bumped into her somehow. I'd let him slip the Veritaserum into Darcie's drink.
I saw him make sure only three drops of the truth stuff hit her drink--no more, no less.
When Darcie turned back from talking with Draco Malfoy she took a drink of her juice. Only about a second passed before she practically shouted, "I have a crush on the Weasley Twins!" She must have run out while Marcus and I were laughing about her out-burst.
Did that pathetic excuse for a Slytherin actually think we were friends?
Aurora's POV
"I have a crush on the Weasley twins," I heard someone say. I looked over to see Darcie run off in tears.
"Darcie!" I called and ran after her, but not before catching a look at Chione and Flint who were just laughing.
Darcie may be in Slytherin but that doesn't change the fact that we're sisters. She may be mean sometimes but she's always there for me when I need her and now she needs me.

I liked this chapter. It's filled with lots of sisterly love. I really think that Chione and Flint deserve eachother, except for the fact that he's about as ugly a flobberworm and she has the beauty of a snowfall...and is about as cold as one too.
