Chapter 2
Ella ran down the carpeted hallways. She soon reached her parents bedroom, calming down just a bit so she would be sure to wake them in a good mood. She knocked on the mahogany door hardly rocking back and fourth on her feet.
"Hello?" asked a rather exhausted voice on the other end of the door. Ella could tell it was coming from no other than Ginny Potter, her beloved mother. "You may come in," added her father's voice with the same tone as Ginny. Her father, as many knew was the famous and courageous Harry Potter.
Then, as expected by most their youngest daughter entered their bedroom. She shut the door close behind her and then turned back around making her red ponytail whip the air. "Hello! Mum, dad!" she grinned to both of them. Her grin was returned by two rather weary smiles. "Yes we will get up poppet! No need to say anything." Said Harry looking to his daughter. She smiled back to him, "oh yes good!" she then turned back around to leave grasping the gold doorknob again. However, suddenly her mother added, "oh and may you please wake up the twins for us?" Ella beamed to her mother and said, "sure!" as she was replied with a thank you. "See you then!" Ella then left the room shutting the door behind her again.
She made her way down the carpeted hallway yet again. This time, she planned to sneak up on her two sisters. She slowly crept to their door and caught herself, as she nearly tripped almost blowing her cover. Suddenly she jumped into the room springing the door open shouting to her sisters, "rise and shine!" the girls jumped suddenly as Ella giggled in enjoyment. It was not everyday somebody startled the Hogwarts pranksters. "Ow." Stated Joanne simply as she had fallen off the bed when being startled. "You little!" said Kathleen looking to Ella. Ella giggled, "Hey I love giving you guys a taste of your own medicine!" Joanne got off the floor and sat back on the bed rubbing her head; the spot she had landed on to be exact. Then both girls looked at the younger sister mischievously, "we will get you back for that!" said Kathleen. "You can bet that!" added Joanne.
Ella's twin's sisters were very sneaky. They were in their 3rd year and happened to be the best prank pullers since Fred and George Weasley. It even is so because Fred and George happened to be their Uncles. Both set of twins were close enough to be best friends other then just relatives. Joanne and Kathleen always knew what prank to pull at what time; even when it worried their parents sometimes, the two's pranks gave others a good laugh.
Ella looked at them shaking her head grinning smugly, "well anyway, mum and dad want you to get up." She said. The girls both yawned in unison then slowly got out of bed. She grinned to them then said; "see you in a little while!"
Ella then left the room and went down the hall again. She went down the stairs carefully into the warm, homey kitchen. Suddenly, Hedwig their family owl swooped into the kitchen and dropped a dead mouse on the kitchen table. "Hedwig!" she tutted to the snowy owl, "take that mouse off the table, you know mum does not like mice!" she snapped. Hedwig hooted dismissively. Hedwig then flew out the window again carrying the mouse with her. Ella then started setting the table for breakfast whistling cheerfully.
It was a bit later and Ella was reading a book quietly as the twins ran down the stairs in their usual pair of jeans and a t-shirt. "Oi Ella!" Ella looked up to the twins from Hogwarts a History, smiling normally. "Hi!" she said, "hey you two is it true like Jared said the library there is huge?" she asked. The twins looked to her smirking impishly, "yeah real big Ella! The perfect spot to set off stink bombs on unsuspecting Slytherins!"
Suddenly, their father came down the stairs as he gave them a skeptic look. "What was that you two said? Something about stink bombs?" he asked. "oh nothing dad!" We were just talking about having good clean fun learning in the library!" said Joanne. "Never said anything about stink bombs dad!" added Kathleen as Ella snorted a bit. Their father knew what they said so he added knowledgably, "now I heard what you said, and lets make this clear; I do not want you messing around with any of those Slytherins, you two or Ella!" Ella nodded saying, "don't worry I will ignore them!" The twins looked at their father with disappointment, "but dad... what if-" "no Joanne and I will hear no more of it." Said Harry looking to his daughter sternly though he almost revealed an amused smirk.
"Fine." Sighed the twins.
"Good." Said Harry grinning to the two then walking to the sink.
Suddenly, Ginny came down the stairs holding the hand of their youngest, Dan. As they reached the third to last step he announced, "I will finish myself." Ginny smiled to his son, "Alright Dan, if you wish." She walked down the rest of the way. Then Dan came down carefully after her. "Here I am." He said grinning to them all.
Dan was the youngest of all the four children. He was the spitting image of their father. He had messy black hair and brilliant green eyes. The only thing he had not of his father was no glasses, and the same face shape. Dan's face shape was like a heart; as his mothers was. He was a proud child and was a very curious three year old. "Hey Danny." Said Joanne ruffling his hair and then Kathleen doing the same. "Hey watch my hair." Said Dan as the others laughed suddenly. Dan said this sometimes because he saw his Uncle Fred do it as a joke sometimes. So he took his Uncle's action literally. "Sorry Dan!" said Kathleen laughing. "Yeah I get it! Just don't do it again!" he said crossing his arms.
"Now lets eat!" said Joanne sitting down grabbing a cereal box. Her sister sat down across from her doing the same with her favorite cereal. Ella placed her book down, got up off the couch, then went over and sat down by Dan's seat. Ella pulled the chair out for Dan as he crawled up onto it determinedly. She then pushed it in for him. He turned and said, "Thank too." She giggled. "you mean thank you." Ella said. "Yes thank too." He grinned then turned back to his empty cereal bowl as Harry and Ginny sat down across from Ella and Dan. "Now lets eat, we do not have much time!" said Ginny. "Yes mum!" said all of the children as the started eating.
The end of Chapter 2! Hope you liked it! Oh! And Happy Christmas!
