All hell was about to break loose. Sirius was screaming his lungs out now, obiviously Remus wasn't helping to his standard. Big Baby. James and Fred idolized him, but I knew better then to tell someone like him, something like that.
Good we were in so much trouble. Of all the things we have done, and got caught for this takes the cake easily. I ran a hand through my hair. Fred and James were in deep conversation about pranking, most likely to occupy themselves. It didn't interest me now. We were in enough trouble already. I went over to Kingsley who had arrived back again, constantly checking with McGonagall and coming back to us.
"How bad is it?" I ask him.
"We will take care of it." He says reassuringly.
"I want to help. James and Fred will have this place blown up, Snape pink-haired and everyone losing their already short tempers in the next 24 hours."
"I would love to see Snape with pink hair." He smiles. I laugh.
"True. SO would I, actually I have but it was on a portrait. McGonagall didn't even have the heart to punish us she was laughing so much."
Me and Kingsley laughed a little, and then Sirius really blew it.
"Bloody Hell Remus! Just tell me already before I run out of this bloody house!" Sirius screamed.
That's when Mrs. Blacks portrait started screaming like mad.
"Shut up!" Someone, sounded like Uncle Harry to be honest, yelled. I was right though when Uncle Harry, Uncle Ron, Aunt Ginny, Aunt Hermione, some lady, the minister of magic and that god-awful toad entered the room.
"Sirius I wouldn't run if I were you mate." Uncle Ron said smiling.
"What do we have here?" That toad said. Oh the nightmares I would have because of that damn voice!
"Nothing of your concern. You will have to have your memories erased, am I correct Madam Bones?" Uncle Harry said.
"Correct. Now we have witness of the time-travel, and the travelers, they will stay here I presume until you can figure your way home?"
"Yes. Of course the ministry has been working on some time-turners, I happen to have one for single use, which will allow me to travel back and make our minister of magic Kingsley Shackletbolt aware of the matter." Aunt Hermione said in the professional I know everything sort of way.
"Sounds lovely. Now you said this house has a lot of protection and a fidelius and we shouldn't remember because of future and past secret keepers?"
"Yes, because the secret keeper here has not given you the word that this place exists, you can not travel here on your own or no anything of the place. As for us, who were in on the secret in our time, we can travel at our own will bringing people we would like because we are secret keepers in the future."
They continued to babble for a little longer, and I had to say Aunt Hermione was a genius, even Uncle Ron looked in awe.
Soon Madam Bones left, and Fudge was now left with Umbridge.
"Well well well. It seems we will have to stay until Ms. Granger returns yes?" Umbridge said as Aunt Hermione time-traveled back to talk to Kingsley.
"And, you will respect the owners of this house as we would you in your house." Uncle Harry said surprisingly calmly.
"Mr. Potter, I do not know what gives you the right-"
"It's Harry's house. Now shut it really." Uncle Ron stepped in.
"Fine then. Now I think we should introduce ourselves to the children-" She started once again and Dom spoke.
"We know who you both are. One is hiding somewhere out of the ministries eye and the other in a cell in Azkaban. Aunt Hermione put you there herself."
"That is no way to talk to a high ranking Ministry official!" Umbridge practically screamed.
"Yeah well your talking to a bunch of children of War Heroes. Maybe show us some respect? Or our family? Or these three?" Dom protested and Uncle Harry waved her down.
"I think we should all take a seat, and then you may ask questions if you would like."
Fudge and Umbridge grumbled and sat down along with the rest of us.
"Who. Is. Dead." Sirius says through gritted teeth.
"Padfoot-" Remus warned.
"No Moony I want to know how half the Order dies!"
"During the Final Battle of Hogwarts" Aunt Ginny says somewhat calmly
Sirius stops dead, Remus stops scolding him.
"What?" They both ask.
"When the Ministry has been at Voldemorts control for months, Harry, Ron and Hermione finally show back up from the run, and Dumbledore's army alerts the Order. The battle begins."
"Ha! Dumbledore's army! You admit it!" Umbridge says ignoring the shock on everyone, including Fudge's, face.
"Well yes, a group that taught me more then you could in a whole year in one meeting. A group of Teenagers who under-minded Voldemorts regime of Death Eaters as teachers. A group that fought alongside the Order of the Phoenix and helped win the War. A group that took the Cruciatus Curse for younger students." Aunt Ginny said in rage.
Shock didn't leave one face, that was until Sirius started a tirade again, and Uncle Harry stopped him.
"Sirius!" and Sirius stopped.
"Do I die?" He asked quietly.
"Yes." Uncle Ron says because Uncle Harry looks unable to speak.
"And Moony and Tonks?"
"Yes."
"Who else?" His voice was shaky now.
"Sirius…" Uncle Ron pleaded.
"Goddammit Ron answer me!"
"Fred! Dumbledore! Mad-Eye! You! Remus! Tonks! Snape! Dobby! Emmaline Vance! Amelia Bones! And so many more!" Aunt Ginny finally screamed losing it.
Fudge looked at a lose for what to do. I mean how hard is it to decide whether or not safety of the country is more important then his position.
Uncle Harry was comforting Aunt Ginny, Uncle Ron was just sitting there with his face in his hands, Uncle Percy was over by Molly and Lucy muttering 'no' over and over again. Sirius was also sitting face in his hands, and Tonks cried softly on Remus' shoulder, who let her sitting there dumbly not even moving. Umbridge looked shocked but not at all upset. Good she needed a lesson….
That's when the best idea in years came to me. This crying and shock and reliving the war wasn't good for anyone, and that smile coming onto the toads face was making me want to strangle her. Lucky enough James had sat next to me Fred on his other side. Dom was across from me looking murderous as was Roxanne. The five of us could take her….
I turned to James and we made eye contact saying the same thing – she was going to get it. Slowly reaching in his bag, he took out a piece of parchment him and Fred had been working on before.
Making sure that everyone was too preoccupied to watch us, Molly and Lucy comforting Uncle Percy, Teddy over by his parents, Lily by hers, Hugo and Rose by Uncle Ron, Al was walking over to his parents, Vic by Teddy, Dom and Roxy ready to help….Good. I took out the parchment and read it.
James and Fred's list of possible pranks if they were to ever travel back in time (revised, and in need of a once over by Louis)
I laughed quietly and started to read again.
Snape- Many things can be done to him, but anything having him dressed up like a Gryffindor, hair turned different colors, followed around by a shampoo bottle, or other humiliating things shall happen to him. Specifics things can be produced when given the opportunity.
Umbridge- We just heard of her not that long ago, but after the proper research, we have concluded she should be-
Turned into a toad
Pink hair
Chased by cats
Customized dream potion (that would be a lot of fun)
Given to Snape to do WHATEVER he pleases to her
Given to McGonagall to have fun with (hopefully turn into a toad for us)
Or various other minor pranks to annoy her
The list went on to others, like pranking Uncle Fred and George together for a prank war, the same with the Marauders, and so on and so forth.
Thinking over my options, I smiled at James' transfiguration skills. Turn her into a toad eh? Of course that would loosen the tension of the room. Need to be conspicuous though….Hmmm….Aha! Dom's help.
Make sure everyone stays distracted!
I write and through the parchment at her. She nods. Her and Roxy engage anyone possibly looking in conversation, and I mouth 'a' to James, he whispers it to Fred and takes out his wand.
Slowly pointing it at Umbridge he mutters the spell and she turns into a toad. He puts his wand away fast and acts like he was in deep conversation with me and Fred about something completely different. Then Fred starts to dramatically point at her.
"Look! She really is a toad!"
The chaos begins, laughing, trying to catch the toad (Fudge at least) and Ant Hermione coming back with Amelia Bones on her tail.
Needless to say, it was fun, and we were not going to get in trouble based on the smirk on Aunt Ginny's face. This is why I am a better prankster the either of them. I think before acting.
A/N This was written early in honor of the premiere of Deathly Hallows Part 2! Okay I was lost on this, but once the older versions of Harry, Ron, Ginny and Hermione go back to their time (all of them) to bring the other back is when the fun will start. Review!
