Chapter 4: First Game
Riley's POV:
I woke up early… really early, so I did what I do best. Disturbed other peoples sleep! I grabbed a jug of water and thanked whichever gods were listening at this unearthly hour in the morning that the wizards weren't like person when they both bolted up, their entire faces and hair soaked with water, it was a funny sight as they both looked accusingly at one another until they spotted me sitting on a chair, looking rather relaxed.
"Come on boys! I haven't got all morning, I mean I'm bored and when I'm bored disastrous things happen. They involve me joining the evil side for the fun of it before annoying evil people out of their brains and almost getting myself blown to pieces. All it took with Kronos was telling him how young he looked and during meetings reminding him that he was only 21!" Without hesitation they shuffled me into the common room, ran back up to their dormitory and returned in school robes not minutes later.
"Ok, what do we do?" one of them asked, I really had to learn to tell them apart!
"I don't know…"
"Truth-"
"Or Dare"
"Could you just tone down the ending each other's sentences thing?" I asked in confusion. "At least while I find out who's who. And yes good Idea. Fred goes first!"
"Riley"
"Dare" I replied without hesitation… things they dared me to do couldn't be that bad could they?
"I dare you to go to the slytherin quarters and make changes so it looks like a few different houses you have at camp" they both said after sharing a look.
"Can I use the Aphrodite cabin as an idea and do a few extra things?" they both nodded and I jumped up happily. I ran out of the common-room and through the hallways easily. And people told me that this place had good security! I ran to the Slytherin common-room, as I already had my make-over kit thing, I was actually saving it for a later dare but this would work just as well.
"May I ask thee a question?" I asked the portrait.
"You already have, but go on" the portrait said grumpily.
"How does one change the password, for thine is… long and impossible to speak" I complained, thanking the fact that I had known Zoe a while before she died and had often spoken to her in the old fashion. Thankfully he roared with laughter and told me the exact way of how to do it, apparently I reminded him of Rowena Ravenclaw which is why he told me in the first place!
"- and that is how fair Lady Ravenclaw"
"I thank thee, alas I must retire though, could I change thy password and say hello to the students before I retire?"
"Of course fair Lady Ravenclaw" he said. I really was taking advantage of this poor rather unfortunate portrait as he probably would get in trouble for this, but I could use this to my advantage. Good thing my brothers couldn't stuff this up now!
"I wish to change the password to: διαίρει καὶ βασίλευε. I thought that it would suit the slytherins well as it is Greek for Divide and Conquer. Don't you agree Milord?"
"Yes I do fair Lady Ravenclaw, the password has been changed. Now should I wake the students for thee?"
"No Milord, I wish to surprise" I replied almost quaking with laughter, they would never guess their password!
"Of course fair Lady Ravenclaw" with that said the portrait swung open quietly and closed itself behind me. I immediately got to work, first in the girls dormitories. Working as quietly as humanly possible – thankfully unlike my brothers I could be quiet – I dyed all of their outfits into shades of pink, using a dye Fred and George said would have to be dyed over or thrown.
Then I painted and dyed everything else in shades of pink and left roses around, making it seem a bit like the Aphrodite cabin if I do say so myself! I then went into the boys dormitories. I quickly changed all of their 'prim and proper' formal clothes with hand-me-downs in exactly their size and made it look a bit like Hermes cabin. Brown walls, wooden planks on the ground almost completely covered in stuff I probably stole ages ago and littered the place with traps. Now... just the common room! I changed that into Apollo cabin style building in a music section, the books of ok, good and Apollo's poetry and then the mini-infirmary type thing. I also put golden covers and pillows on the black leather sofa. I sighed admiring my work before I heard the boys dormitory door open so I quickly fled the crime scene hearing complaints.
"I thank thee" I called to the portrait over my shoulder, my blue hood still concealing my face and most of my features! I ran back into Gryffindor common-room and was surprised to see a group of Gryffindors around a screen of where I was standing. They all burst into cheers as they noticed me standing in front of them.
"That was awesome, where did you get the ideas?" those were the type of questions I received and I immediately noticed that Hermione was just shaking her head whilst reading a book off in a little corner of the room.
"Well, the girl's common room is based on Aphrodite cabin, Common Room is based on Apollo's cabin and the boy's dormitory is based on the cabin I'm in. If you're in our cabin the floor is littered with stuff – most of it stolen – and pranks and traps!" I explained my brilliant re-decoration to my current in awe crowd. "Now, my turn, I pick... George"
"Dare" he said... and he wasn't looking overly happy with his choice.
"I dare you to go to Snape's private quarters and sing I'm too sexy" I said happily. He paled and everyone else burst out laughing!
"Ok" he said meekly standing and leaving the room. I followed him, hiding in rather odd places before we got there. He weakly nodded on the door and a rather agitated looking Severus Snape opened the door.
"What is it Weasley?"
"Um professor" I started the music at this point.
"What?"
"I'm Too Sexy

I'm too sexy for my love too sexy for my love
Love's going to leave me
I'm too sexy for my shirt too sexy for my shirt

"Detention Mr Weasley!" with that George sulked away, knowing that part of this was not to argue with the teacher!
