Here we go, I promised you a quick update and here it is :) I own nothing! Please R&R!


Fred raced across the castle. He burst into the room of requirement so suddenly, that Lavender and Colin's card game went flying. He bent down to pick some of them up. "Mythomagic? Really?" They both blushed slightly as Fred smirked. (A/N I have been reading Percy Jackson, I had to put it in somewhere...)

Lavender handed her cards back to Colin. "So?" She said calmly "What did you find out?" Fred was panting. He wasn't exactly a ghost, so he could still breath, but he wasn't solid either, he could pass through walls and float.

"One-wheeze-of-the-wheeze-girls-saw-you." He managed, before falling into a seat. Colin stood up and brushed himself down.

"Um...Did any of the boys hear clapping? I think one of them may have heard me..." He looked up at the others sheepishly.

"Yes. Yes they did." Fred huffed irritably. "If they did though, do you realise what this means? They will have been the first people for 21 years to see or hear us!" Lavender floated over to the window and started to recite.

"Fire, water and air, one queer, one short, one fair..." She trailed off. "It's about us." Fred and Colin stared at her in amazement.

"Hold on." Colin made a time-out gesture with his hands. "We've been here for 21 years, hearing that rhyme almost every day and you've only just figured it out?"

She blushed.

"So, Colin is obviously short. I am fair...Fred, you must be queer!" she exclaimed happily. Fred looked up to the ceiling and prayed that he was the fair one.

"Anyway, this means it has started! We're here to help, so we must as well..." He broke off, mulling over what to do. Colin looked from Lavender to Fred.

"Maybe we should try to get the first years to tell us what's happening..." He sighed in frustration. "They won't know! They won't know that he's back!"

"Who's back?" Lavender spun around.

"You Know Who. There was another horcrux." Fred broke in. "You've heard how Harry was a horcrux, part of Voldemort's soul latched on to the only living thing in the house?" Both Lavender and Colin nodded. "The Potters had a cat. The cat is the last horcrux."


The Gryffindor first years had decided to meet in the corner of the courtyard. Olivia and Hugo were both taking charge, making sure everyone was there.

Lily was perched on a small ledge between Hugo and Roxanne. Olivia, Abi and Zoe were chatting. Jet was tying his laces. they had an unfortunate habit of coming undone.

Finally Timothy, Aaron and Logan arrived.

"Okay," Olivia whispered. "You all know why we're here. There are ghosts. Our dorms are haunted. And we think..." She cast a glance at the Weasley's and Lily. "That one of them may be Fred Weasley."

Zoe took a step back. Abi leaned forwards, her interest peaked.

"Maybe we should go and look for them. I mean, I've heard about your Uncle and he doesn't sound the type to stay here as a ghost. We should find them and see what's happening." She sat back, looking satisfied. Timothy nodded thoughtfully.

"Yeah. How about if we all stay in the common room tonight? All night and see if they come back. We can just be talking about what we've heard and if they're there, they'll start speaking."

Logan and Aaron nodded. Olivia gave a half-smile.

"Okay. But you lot can wake me up when they arrive."

Roxanne and Lily looked at each other.

"We'll see."


Colin nodded, satisfied. He raced back to report to the others.

"A meeting! With them! They actually believe we're here!"


The fire was dying down. Lily pulled her robes more tightly around her. It was getting colder and there was still no sound of ghosts. It turned out they didn't need to wake Olivia after all. Roxanne had given her enough coffee at tea to give a rhino a heart-attack. (A/N To anyone who gets that one, here is a cookie (::))

She was shaking with energy.

"R-roxy I-I-I will kill y-y-you!" She was almost bouncing off the walls. Abi was chasing after her with amusement. Zoe was attempting to braid her hair in the midst of it all. Hugo was reading. Jet had given up on shoes and was wandering around in mis-matched socks. Timothy, Aaron and Logan were in the corner, hunched over some project.

Lily finally broke the silence.

"So, do you think they're going to come or not?"

"We're already here."

The first years almost jumped out of their skin as they slowly turned to see the ghostly apparitions by the window.

There was a girl, with curly brown hair. Next to her was a smaller boy, with blonde hair, clutching a camera. Then finally, all eyes went to the tallest one, standing on the end. It was Fred Weasley.


A sort-of longish chapter! (For me that's pretty long) And you deserve it! Thanks for reading, PLEASE REVIEW!
