Well I must say that yes, I do suck at keeping promises. I was writing the next chapter when I was like, "Have I done Halloween yet?" Since I was doing a Christmas chapter. Well it's the Easter holidays so I will try to write a few more chapters. Oh yea, I also had a concert so I was really tired for the rest of the week. Without further ado, ENJOY!
Chapter 13: Halloween with Russians
For once the dorm wasn't woken up by Ron's snoring but a rather high pitched scream. Ron had been woken rather early for some reason (a.k.a. a tickling charm sent by London) and come face to face with his worst fear. Spiders. Not just any spider though but a huge spider like the ones that he had encountered in second year in the forbidden forest.
The scream had been so loud that it had awakened the rest of the boys and even the girls in Gryffindor tower. London and Romano were down in the common room sniggering at the response to their little prank. A few seconds later they heard another shrill shriek from the girl's dorm this time and London lost it and collapsed in his chair, laughing his head off. Romano had more self-control and was smirking.
Ron was the first down to the common room with hundreds of little plastic spiders all over him. He was still screaming and was trying to push off all the spiders that seemed to be stuck on with a permanent sticking charm.
Hermione was hot on his heels with cold water all over her and her hair was a bright and shocking blue. It was sticking up in all directions and seemed to have a life of its own.
"What happened to you two?" Romano said, smirking. This just made London laugh even more, tears streaming down his face. The snitches glared at him, well Hermione was glaring while Ron was still dancing around while trying to still get the spiders off.
"Someone pulled a nasty trick on us, what else?" Hermione said, glaring at Romano who was still smirking smugly. Ron was a bit too preoccupied to answer.
"Oh. I thought you wanted it that colour. Guess I was wrong." Romano said. Hermione was full t glaring at him but soon ran up the stairs when the other Gryffindor's come down to see what the commotion was about and saw Hermione's hair.
Gred and Forge went to stand beside the pair and whispered to them "Nice one mates. Couldn't have done better ourselves. Thanks for the new ideas." They then hi-fived them and left to get ready for the school day. They had a whole bag of pranks for the night that they were going to work on. Tonight was the Halloween feast after all.
Romano and London had also been coming up with some good pranks with Scotty and England. Right now they had come up with making the suits of armour give out wails and moans, moving the trick step to the step above and having the ghosts pop out of the food at random moments and many other ideas.
First was History of Magic so they could sleep through that class and still get almost full marks on a test. It was just some facts that had been made up by wizards that had lost them marks since they had actually been there. It irked Hermione to no end since she listened to the teacher and they slept with the rest of the class.
After they had Transfiguration where they had moved on to vanishing Turtles of all things. Romano was particularly pleased about this exercise, as indicated by his evil smirk and muttering about how he was 'getting back at Spain' and 'stupid turtles'. They had gotten an approving nod from the teacher and a venomous look from the snitches.
Last class was double potions where they had to create one potion from memory using the ones listed on the board. Luckily they were allowed to work in trios so they worked with Neville. The snitches had tried to drag London off with them but Snape had noticed and used the situation to take off more house points. In the end they were paired with Pansy in Slythern. They decided to make the Draught of Peace, since Neville knew the instructions off by heart surprisingly, London was the best at cutting the various ingredients and Romano had a sharp eye so he knew when something had too big a quantity. They managed to make the potion without much fuss and surprisingly gained points from the teacher. That gained them a few stares and a place in Hogwarts history.
Dinner finally came round and already a few students were shaking from the events outside the great hall. Some were even muttering about a giant stone dragon chasing them. They gave the twins knowing smirk and received a wink from each of them.
London took out a little invention he had come up with along with the troublemakers one night. It was a small horn shaped thing that multiplied until there were about a hundred of them. He set this off with a few others and let them cover the hall. A few seconds later they started honking and spewing out a gas. Loads of kids jumped up and cried out in fear. The pranksters just laughed their heads off and hid under the table.
They signalled to Scotland and England to set off the next prank. They had gotten Russia's permission to summon him and he said he would gladly help out as long as they could get him away from his little sister. England silently summoned him and he appeared just as the smoke was clearing.
"Become one with Mother Russia, Da?" Russia said, creepy aura emitting from him making people shake like a Baltic. A few students fainted and many ran from the great hall, leaving the deconstructed dancing skeletons and piles of sweets. Scotland let the last prank go and leaves along with the others, sniggering at the reactions from the students and even some of the teachers.
A giant shadow fell over the old bastard and he turned around only to see something he never wanted to see again. The green monstrosity from before had somehow gotten inside his castle. He knew that no spell could penetrate its thick skin and its yellow eyes glared at him with hate. He immediately ran up to his office to escape the evil monster known as, Nessie.
Meanwhile, the nations, capital and deadly twins met up at the wall outside the great hall, laughing their asses off. Well for Romano's case he was smirking with satisfaction but same thing. They waited to see Dumb as a Door run out of the great hall which sent London and the twins laughing to the floor. After that they said their well done, gave Russia his well-deserved vodka and went to bed.
Well I hope you bros enjoyed that well awaited chapter that I did on a ferry. Give me some suggestions for the next chapter and please review. LOVE YA ALL *brofist*
