Chapter Two – Havoc

Hellions

There was a reason why Father had never, and would have never, left all of the Sins together unsupervised for more than a few milliseconds. Unfortunately for the wizards, they had no such pre-warning about their eminent doom. Because while there had been glimpses of it in the twin's pranks, they were but two of the Sins and as such could cause only a fraction of the havoc. However, in the weeks and months following the arrival of the younger Sins at Hogwarts, the wizards began to realize what exactly they had just unleashed.

Three things contribute to the destruction the Sins cause. One, the Sins have no need for eight hours of sleep, because they can survive on less than one hour per night. Two, they have all lived a long time, and as such are much smarter than the average teenager (yes, that means Sloth too). Three, the Sins are, well, sins. All of these things combined mean that the Sins have lots of time on their hands, plenty of ideas of how to put that time to good use, and no morals to stop them from going overboard.

Well, let's just say, they made the Marauders look like amateurs.

Schedules

The Sins did go to class. It just didn't happen regularly.

After all, they had been patient in their other centuries long life, but this time they were young and human, and they didn't feel like wasting all their daylight hours just to go to a class filled with other disgusting little humans to learn things books and Wrath could teach them just as well. So, going to class, for the Sins, became more of a sign of extreme boredom than a sign of any desire to learn.

Besides, the Sins had plans. Yes, plans. Plans that would have every pureblood quaking in their dragonskin boots had the plans been common knowledge. Because the Sins had plans to shake up the wizarding world by finding ways to integrate muggle technology with magic. Because the Sins had plans to bring the wizarding world into the modern age. And most importantly of all, the Sins had plans to take over the wizarding world.

Pranks

The Greeds are the undisputed masters of pranking. They are the best of the best at planning, inventing, and implementing pranks, so the other Sins know exactly where to go if they are ever bored and looking for a show.

Wrath is the supplier and alibi. As he is still a teacher, he can gladly abuse that power to make all of the Sins detentions for missing classes be spent with him. Of course, none of the other teachers know that these "detentions" are usually spent booby trapping the castle.

Gluttony and Sloth are the secret-keepers. Despite the fact that their friendships with the others are well known, everyone acts as though they couldn't possibly be in on it. It doesn't seem to matter that one of them is a Hufflepuff who would die for his friends and the other the brightest, and most protective, Ravenclaw witch in her year.

Pride, Lust, and Envy are the distraction helpers. Besides the fact that Envy can look like whomever he wants, the three of them have perfected puppy-dog eyes. Armed with irresistibly cuteness and sliver tongues, the three of them can sweet talk any of the staff into believing their undeniable innocence. Of course, they can also sweet talk the majority of the school into following them right into a prank – no matter how many times they do it.


AN: I am so glad that so many people like this story! Over 24 favorites, and 25 alerts, as well as eleven reviews! I will be continuing it, so no fear. Right now my computers not letting me go anywhere on the internet, so I have to use a friend's and I don't get to see them that much. Also, updates will be pretty sporadic anyway, because I'm working on six stories and my muse flits around between them as it wills, so I don't exactly have a steady stream of ideas.

Speaking of ideas, if anyone has something they'd like to see written, just let me know!

I hope everyone likes this, and please don't forget to review!
