Chapter 4 - In on the secret + Halloween
HGPV:
I was walking down the stairs on my way to the main hall, when I saw the twins and Lee discussing about something again. I went over to them I took all my Gryffindor courage and asked:" What is going on?"
The boys jumped apart and Lee said:" What are you talking about? Nothing is going on Hermione, right guys?" He looked at the twins and they nodded and said:" Yeah Hermione, nothing is going on, what makes you think that?" they said with a smirk.
"Hmm let's see shall we. You have been sneaking around the castle, whispering to each other every time, avoiding the question and right now you look like you could get in big trouble if someone found out about it, with that smile of your's boys." I said with one eyebrow raised and arms crossed. The twins and Lee looked a bit panicked while looking at each other when finally Fred said:" Fine you win, but you would have to swear to never tell anyone about this."
"Okay"
"We are trying to figure out what prank is best, to do for Halloween." said George.
"A prank? What kind of prank?"
"well.." Lee said " we have been thinking about either turning everyone's school ropes to the color they hate or making the food fly away every time you try to touch it and eat it."
"Wow, that's a pretty good prank. No one can get hurt because of them right? And why don't you just do both of them in stead of just one of them?"
The boys smiled at me and looked a bit surprised that I did not yell at them. But hey, if no one get's hurt what's the harm?
"No Hermione, no one would get hurt when the prank happens and we haven't thought of using both of them since we haven't exactly found out how to do the pranks." said Lee
"I can help you with that, I read about a spell called volans. So if you say escam in front of volans, it should work."
"Fantastic, why didn't we think of that.."
"What about the other prank.."
"do you have any ideas to that one?" The twins said, finishing each others sentences.
"umm, have you tried omni colore oderunt?" I asked them. They shook their head no and Lee said:" we haven't heard about it, what does it do?" I smiled and took my wand out of my sleeve and said the spell. The next second all three of the boys school ropes, where bright pink with orange and white polka dots. I laughed my butt off, because they looked ridiculous. The boys said finite incantatem, and their ropes where back to normal. The boys smiled and told me that they would like me to help them with the prank, that they wanted me to teach them the spells. I agreed and I couldn't wait to see what would happen at Halloween.
Today is halloween, and the day of the prank. All four of us had discussed it and agreed that it was going to happen at the halloween feast. When the time came to perform the prank, George had been down to the kitchen a few hours before, which I still don't know where is, and said the spell escam volans. While we waited for the food to come, Fred said the spell omni colore oderunt, under the table and everyone's ropes change color. There where bright orange, bright green and pink, but also ropes with multiple colors on or the colors from on of the other houses. It was so funny. People began taking their ropes off, and then when the food came up the tried to eat it. But suddenly their food got wings and began flying up in the air. Professor Dumbledor got up after a while, and said the counter spell, so everyone could eat and wear their ropes again. We ate our food, and everyone began laughing about what have happened. After that we all went to our common room and went to our dorm room and fell asleep.
