Disclaimer: I don't own Harry Potter. Isn't that obvious?
AN: So my plan to take a break seemed to backfire on me. I got to 30 reviews in less than 2 hours which is, like, crazy! So here I am about to pack and get ready for my family dinner but no, I need to keep my promise. Damn, I underestimated you guys :P
Also, guess what my parents got me for the new year? My dad got me a SAT review book and my mom got me an ACT review book.
Evening on the Yacht
"Okay, so how do we distract them?" Ava asked.
"Hermione can do a strip tease," Max suggested.
"Heh, work that Griffindor courage," Louise grinned.
"That would take too long. We have 10 minutes to plan this out, 20 minutes to execute it, and the last 10 minutes is for covering up what we did," Hermione said, seriously considering the idea of a strip tease, "a strip tease would be at least 3 minutes, and with what we have, it already takes the first 10 minutes getting Richie drunk off his ass."
They all mumbled their agreement.
"Since the bitch twins aren't in this in the first place, we either lock them in their room and put a rat in there or we make them come out of the room and experience the chaos," Ava said.
"Lock them up and transfigure a rat out of something," Louise's suggestion was met by the approving nods of the rest of them.
As they were talking, an owl flew towards them carrying a large package with a note on it.
Mione-
We're glad that you finally embraced the art of prankstership.
Put these to good use. None of these lovely thingys here are on sale anywhere yet.
F&G
PS. Be careful with the blue bottle.
"That was fast," Hermione mumbled to herself.
Inside the package were six items: a green cube, a petrified rat, a box of chocolates, a red potion, a box of what looks like underwear, and the blue bottle.
Hermione summoned her quick quotes quill and a piece of paper to write back to Fred and George.
F&G-
Thanks for the package. You guys deserve a thank you kiss when you get back.
No worries, it's from my cousin. I don't think Draco will let you out alive if it was me, even though...
Haha
HG
PS. The chewable wit-sharpening mints works wonders.
With the planning all in order, they started setting up their prank.
Emily and Maddie's Room
Louise and Max heard light snoring from inside the room, no doubt the twins were asleep.
"Alohomora," Max pointed his wand at the door.
Louise slowly opened the door, making sure to not wake up the twins who were sleeping in the king sized bed (no incest here...). She put the rat on the bed and the green cube under the bed. The rat was charmed with a modified geminio, every time one of the twins came in contact with the rat, another one will come out of the green cube.
Chaos in the making, Louise thought. I really should give them a thank you kiss if I ever see them again.
She rushed out of the door as soon as everything was in place.
"Rennervate," Max whispered and aimed his wand at the rat and the sleeping twins.
"Colloportus," Louise said and the door automatically closed and locked. Right as the door was closing, she could see the rat slowly walking around on the bed while the twins were stretching, waking from their nap.
Soon, screams of terror was heard.
"OH. MY. FUCKING. GOD!" came a voice from the other side of the door.
"Holy shit! Get the bloody rat away from me!"
"AHHHHHH!"
"Fuck! There's another one!"
"Get the bloody door!"
"No shit, it's locked!"
"Locked my arse, we're inside the bleeding - holy fuck, get off me! - room, we can open it, you dumb fuck!"
"Bloody hell, another one!"
Louise and Max could see the door handle frantically moving, but it was futile. They snickered and gave each other a high-five, the rats will disappear within the next 15-20 minutes and the charm on the door should wear off at about the same time.
"And I thought that Hermione said swearing was taboo," Max smirked.
When they had their share of laughs at the twins, they silenced they door so that the twins can't ask for help and went on to their next mission.
Dinning Room
Right as Hermione and Ava walked into the dinning room, they saw Jack slumped on the love seat by the entrance. Hermione took out the box of chocolates and offered one to Jack.
"Hey, chocolate?" Hermione offered, giving him a trust-me-I'm-totally-harmless smile. "I heard it helps with the seasickness."
Ava gave him a look of sympathy.
"Well, technically, chocolate contains-" Jack was cut off by Hermione.
"Well, I'm giving you chocolate and even if it doesn't help, it's still chocolate," Hermione said, her bossy tone was coming back. "By the way, it's Debauve & Gallais, Uncle Laurent brought it from France."
Jack perked up at the name of the brand; Debauve & Gallais was probably one of the best tasting and most expensive chocolates there are.
"Oh, okay," Jack said, trying to cover up his giddiness of getting to taste this chocolate.
Ever the materialistic one, Hermione thought.
"Do you want some more wine?" Ava gestured to his empty wine glass.
"That'd be nice, thanks," Jack gave her a smile.
Ava took the wine glass and briskly walked to the adults. They were all sitting along the long table with Richie in between his parents. Ava took the glass of wine and refilled it.
"You're getting another glass?" Aunt Emma asked.
At this point, all eyes were on her. Guess they don't like the idea of having kids drink.
"Well, technically," Ava gave herself an inward smile at her imitation of Jack, "I'm married, I have my own house, I have a well paying job, and I'm of legal drinking age anyways. I think I can get a second glass of wine." Ava was feeling bold for reasons unbeknownst to her, she would never boast in front of her aunts and uncles.
Everyone seemed to shut up and ignore her. Her in-laws gave her a questioning look and she smiled sheepishly.
By the time Ava was back, Jack was out cold.
"Heh, the knock-out diarrhea choc worked," Ava grinned and dropped exactly 2 drops of the wideye into the glass of wine.
The chocolate was made to make the eater pass out a minute after consumption and then wake up a 5 minutes later, after another 5 minutes, they will get diarrhea.
Weasley's Wizard Wheezes
"Fred, should we tell Hermione that the wit-sharpening mint doesn't work perfectly yet?"
"Well, George, if it did work perfectly, would Hermione ask for our help with these items?"
"Fred, you're I genius."
"No, George, you are."
"Of course I am."
Fred smacked George at the back of his head.
"But for real, we should tell her," George sighed.
"Well, it's good enough, the one Mione has is just a prototype."
"Next batch, we make the eater instantly sober-"
"and not just seem sober," Fred finished his sentence.
Dining Room
"Let's hurry before Jack wakes up," Hermione told Ava and they rushed to the dining table.
When they got there, Aunt Emma raised an eyebrow at Ava, as if question if she was going to get another glass of wine or not. Ava gave her the most sappy-sweet-I'm-the-most-lovely-girl-you'll-ever-meet smile.
"My in-laws brought everyone some chocolates," Ava started.
She was met, yet again, by her in-law's questioning gaze.
"They're from Debauve & Gallais," Hermione added and gave Aunt Alicia a wink.
"Yes, yes, I almost forgot! I brought you guys chocolate from Paris!" Aunt Alicia exclaimed. Uncle Laurent still looked confused with the whole situation and got kicked in the shin by Aunt Alicia.
"Right," he mumbled.
Everyone in the table eagerly took one each, with Richie taking at least 3. Hermione and Ava looked at each other, unsure about the effects on the chocolate if more than one was consumed. As Aunt Alicia and Uncle Laurent reached to get their share of chocolate, Ava shook her head, signalling for Aunt Alicia to not eat the chocolate, when everyone else on the table suddenly fell asleep.
Uncle Laurent was amused, but Aunt Alicia wasn't.
"What are you two doing?" she demanded.
"Just a little payback," Ava answered.
Aunt Alicia looked confused and ask if they were drunk, in which they told them the story of how their little plan came to be. Aunt Alicia laughed at that and Uncle Laurent didn't bother stifle his laughter.
"Wow, Hermione, I never knew anyone who was raised by this family could turn out like this," Aunt Alicia gave a grateful smile.
"Actually since I went to Hogwarts, I've only met them once in my third year, so I can say that anyone that was raised in this family couldn't possibly turn out like this," she gestured to herself.
They all laughed.
"C'mon, let's hurry this up a bit," Ava urged.
Ava put two drops of her wideye potion in each of the drinks except for Grandma Kelsea's, Hermione put the antidote for the chocolates that Fred and George provided into that glass. Granny doesn't deserve to get diarrhea and not be able to sleep for 24 hours, she thought.
Hermione poured the contents of the red vial into Richie's glass.
AN: Really, really, sorry for note being able to post this sooner. I tried writing it the moment I got to 30 reviews and I know that it already went more than double my goal of reviews - I should've set it up at 45 or 50. Life got in the way, all the family dinners and the "shopping therapy" for after meeting my whole extended family. I swear my family is kind of like the Grangers here... Enough about that...
Review/fav/followwww because we all know that it makes my day :) and if it makes my day, it makes your day because I would update faster... hoho :)
