Chapter 9: Introducing, the Lil' Hell Raiser Products!
That night, Jason and Marcus were sitting in the biggest chairs in the common room. Everyone who was there at Hogwarts was sound asleep. Jason and Marcus were silently reading brand-new comic books and smoking their bubble pipes they got for Christmas. But then, the sound of whispering flowed into the room.
"No, Ron. You stay here, the cloak will only hold one." Jason and Marcus were listening to it intently and figured it was stupid Potter. They were right.
Jason and Marcus quickly made themselves invisible. They followed Harry's every move around corner and corridor. Finally, they found themselves in the library.
"Why would Harry want to go to the library, of all places?" asked Jason, who was still following Harry. Good thing he had a lamp, or they wouldn't have a clue where he was.
"Shhh, we have to be quiet." said Marcus , how put his finger up to his lips. Suddenly, they heard a loud, clang!
"What was that?" Jason and Marcus said in unison. It was the lock to the restricted section.
"Jeez, you'd think that kid knows how to be more sneaky."
The two boys crept closer as they heard Harry whisper,"Flamel, Flamel, where are you Nicolas Flamel?"
Marcus held his hand up to the side of his head," Hello, Mental Asylum? I think you have an escapee." The two boys snickered.
"ARRRRRRR!"
Jason and Marcus whipped around on their heels. They saw Harry slam close a book.
"That's some book"
"A'right who's in 'ear? Come on show yer selves. You can't hide." Jason and Marcus turned around to find that Filch was walking into the room.
"Oh no!" whispered Marcus.
"Don't worry, we have nothing to fear," said Jason. He looked over at Harry." It's him who has to worry."
They looked over at Harry who was franticly trying to get his invisibility cloak on. He got it on just in time for Filch to come in. Jason and Marcus tip-toed pass Filch and safely out the door.
"He he, that was fun."
The boys ran back to the dormitory. Once there, they decided to have a good nights sleep. Then, they slept till 11:00 the next day.
"dum du dee." Marcus was walking down the 7th floor corridor towards the room of requirements. After being well fed, Marcus all ways has a spring in his step.
Marcus stood in front of a completely blank wall. He looked to either side of him,making sure no one was coming. Moments later, a large door appeared. Marcus pushed it opened.
"Jason!" Marcus called.
"I'm up in the clubhouse!" Jason called back. He was wearing a loupe over one eye and a wielding mask on his head. In one hand he was holding a very small blowtorch and in the other hand his wand.
"Okay." said Marcus in a low whisper.
Marcus entered the clubhouse and there was a wonderful aroma. Marcus took a moment to let the smell fill his nose.
"What-" but Marcus was stopped short by Jason.
"I'm baking a cake for this kid who needs help in Muggle Studies." answered Jason.
"Actually, I was going to ask you, what in the world you are doing?"
Jason flipped up the box that was to his left. Marcus went up for a closer inspection.
"Lil' Hell Raiser Destruction kit?" Marcus was puzzled.
"Yeah. There will also be a lot more. Like, I've made the Holographic Guide Magical and Menacing Creatures, I'm planing on to make Prankster Kit #1, Prankster kit #2 Prankster kit #3, Prankster Kit #4, and Prankster Kit #5," Jason counted them on his fingers. "This will our ticket to fame! And no doubt probably not our only one."
"It's genius! So, how far have you gotten?"
"Well, I've only gotten it to destroy small objects so far."
"Wait, I was reading that Muggle electronics don't work at Hogwarts, because there is so much magic."
"I know, but I dipped these in that potion that makes pictures move, and they work perfectly."
"Interesting. What made you come up with this idea?"
"Fred and George."
"No surprise there." said Marcus in a low whisper.
"Come on! Let's go to Hagrad's and show him our book!" Jason hopped off the stool and grabbed the book and they zipped out the door.
Once outside, they ran across the grounds.
"Jason, we're not supposed to come out on the grounds this late!" said Marcus in a low whisper.
"I know. I didn't want any one to see us and steel the idea."
They finally reached Hagrid's hut on the edge of the forbidden forest. Jason knocked on the door. It was pushed open by a half-giant.
"Jason and Marcus! You know you an't supposed to come out this late!" said Hagrid.
"I know, but we have something really cool to show you." said Jason and he held up the book labeled the Holographic Guild to Magical and Menacing Creatures.
"Ooo, let's have a looksy. Come inside." said Hagrid who was already reading.
Hagrid set the book on the table and let the holographic creatures pop up. The book was in alphabetical order and in fifteen minuets they went from Athach to Raashasa. Then they heard a knock at the door.
"Hagrid looked at the window. "You two" he whispered. "Go hide." Jason and Marcus hid in the cabinets under the sink. They had not noticed the egg sitting on the table. When they peeked out from their hiding spot, Jason and Marcus saw that it was Harry, Ron and Hermione that had knocked at the door. They were asking about the egg on the table. Then the egg started to hatch and out popped a baby dragon.
"Wicked." said Jason and Marcus. They heard Hagrid say "Hello Norbert." then fifteen seconds later, Harry, Ron, and Hermione rushed out of the hut. Jason jumped out of the cabinets. "Ew spiders ew."
"You can't keep that dragon inside the grounds Hagrid." said Marcus. "You need to send it off somewhere."
"Or we could keep it in our dormitory." said Jason.
"How are going to do that?" asked Marcus
"Like this." Jason pulled and small book out of his pocket. It looked like a spell book. "This spell." Jason pointed to a spell that made the space inside a box, bag, etc, bigger. "We could make it so big that he could fly in it. And it could only be the size of a cardboard box under the beds."
"Hmm, that might work." said Marcus.
Later that night, Jason and Marcus were in their dormitory. Norbert was sitting on the top of one of the four poster bed.
"Come on Norbert! Fly! Come to daddy Jason!" Jason was trying to get Norbert to fly. It didn't seem to be working. Norbret hovered for a second and fell to the ground.
"GGRRRR."
Percy came in to tell them lights out. Jason quickly stepped in front of Norbert.
"Lights out."
A spiky tail flew up from behind Jason's head.
"Uh hu." Percy slammed the door.
Jason turned around and saw Norbert.
"YYYEEESSS! YOU'RE FLYING!"
