Kingship
{Well. That was different} Harry mentally commented as they made their way into the Not-so-Great Hall for dinner on the evening of their second Friday at the castle. They'd just had their first flying lesson of the year, and it was boring. Longbottom fell off his broom and broke his wrist, causing Hooch to abandon the lesson in favour of taking the boy to the hospital wing. After she'd left (with instructions NOT to mess around on the brooms) 'Ferret Face', AKA Dorko Malfoy, had stolen Longbottom's rememberball that he'd received from his Gran that morning and flew of with it. Harry had been prepared to simply summon the damn thing, but then froze as Hayden flew up after him, and then went into a suicidal dive that Harry thought only he could pull off. When Hayden nearly crashed, Harry's heart stopped. He was fine though, but apparantly McGonagall saw the whole thing and dragged Hayden off somewhere.
{I don't get it. Gabriel? Gabriel!}
{But I remembered us riding in my brothers car, her...}
{What? Since when do your brothers share? Or actually have a bloody CAR, of all things! A HUMAN made car?!}
{It was a song I've had in my head...}
{MY head. And thank Christ it was singing. I thought those sounds were you disemboyling someone with a whisk. Regardless, I don't get it}
{What?}
{When Hayden went up on that broom, why was I scared? I should have been glad if he'd died, right?}
{DON'T EVER SAY THAT AGAIN. You should NEVER be glad if your brother is in trouble!}
In a small 'voice', just slightly afraid of Gabriel at that moment, Harry replied {But, you and Luci...}
{There is a difference between being willing to fight and stand up to evil, and liking it. I hate Lucifer, and Michael. But I loved them once and the thought of them dead? I hate it! I'd would have killed them if I had to, but not until there was no other way. You have no bad experiences with Hayden, you're just avoiding him on prinicpal}
{Okay. I get it. Thanks, Gabe}
His mind at ease, and returning to normal, Harry sanpped back to the real world.
He was once again in the company of the self proclaimed 'Prankster Extraordinaire'; one Adrian Black-thinking about it, Harry planned to show Dri who was boss after they'd defeated the Twins-and the suprisingly energetic Terry. Like extraordinarily energetic on a level that when talking about the quiet, shy Ravenclaw first year just didn't make sense. And Dri seemed to look guilty of something.
So while Terry was firing of words at the rate of a mini gun, Harry turned to Dri and just asked "What did you do?"
At least the Black heir had the decency to look ashamed. He smiled sheepishly before replying " He seemed down, and needed a Pick-Me-Up. I saw the chance to test something I'd always wanted to try,"
This last part caused Harry to raise an eyebrow dangerously, so Dri hastily explained "I decided to see what the effects of mixing a Pepper-up potion with one of the muggle energy drinks you brought,"
Now, at this point, Harry stopped dead in his tracks and looked Dri in the eye "First, don't go through my trunk. Second, how'd you get into my dorn to go through my trunk? Finally, please, PLEASE, tell me you've been documenting this?!"
"Err, no" was the slightly confused reply.
Groaning with frustration, Harry dragged Dri to catch up with Terry "Hurry there's still time," he said excitedly as he pulled a notepad and pen out "Now what did you get him to drink and how much of it?"
"I think it was 2, one litre bottle of 'Mountain Dew' or something like that, plus the Pepper-Up," Dri said and Harry hurriedly wrote it down at the top of the page.
"Now my dear Dri, what observations have you made about our good friend Mr Boot since you administered the serum?"
"Serum? What are you talking about?"
"Mr Black we may very well become famous for this. This could be the start of a brand new energy drug! Now details. Talk Adrian!"
"Harry are you sure we should be using our friend as a lab-rat?"
"Terry has an academic mind, and this is for Science!" Harry exclaimed almost as hyper as the Boot heir "He''l forgive us!"
An hour later the page looked like this:
Test Trial-Sugar Drug
Test subject: Terry Boot
Researchers: Harry Gabriel, Adrian Black
Formulae: 2 litre's of Mountain Dew + 1 vial of Pepper-Up Potion (80% concentration)
Effects: Subject has been under the influence of product for a duration of ten hours
has shown highly increased energy levels. Subject 01 (Boot) is normally shy,
quiet and reserved, rarely speaking and is normally buried in a book. Under the
effects of the product, Subject 01 has shown an unprecidented amount of
restless energy, and is, for want of a better descrition, 'bouncing of the walls
at the rate of squirel who was injected with Researcher 01's (Gabriel)
daily suagr levels' (Note to self= Test This!) Subject 01's speech patterns (usually
quiet but comprehensive) are now loud and incomprehendable. In addition, Subject
has shown an incresaed strangth, speed, stamina and reflex time (five times normal
rate)
It was then that Terry; sitting at the Gryffindor table with the other two opposite him observing him as though he were particularly fascinating specimen; suddenly seemed to deflate. He stopped mid sentance, swayed slightly, eyes drooping closed and his shoulders slumped. Then he collapsed onto the table and face planted against it. Groaning, he put his hands agianst his head.
"Where'd the train come from?"
"Interesting," he heard an intrigued voice say "Dri write down my exact words under the sub heading 'After-Effects'. 'After the coming down from the effects of the product subject 01 exhibited sign's of a high amount of tiredness and a headache, possibly similar to one gained during a hangover. No more serious affects, but an observation should be ongoing over the course of the year to watch for any logn term health issue's as a result of the Product'"
Terry knew enough about Muggle culture to understand that Drug Dealers often referred to drugs as 'product' and so drew his conclusion from that knowledge
"You drugged me?" he asked quietly, significantly hurt and betrayed feeling.
"Correction, he drugged you" Harry said pointing at Dri "Then we decided to observe the rather unusual effects the product had on you,"
"We're hoping on going into production and development soon," Dri added.
Oe thing that could be said about Harry and Dri was that they weren't cruel. However they had different notions as to other people about what would be deemed as going too far; Dri because of his father and Harry due to his upbringing; and Gabriel was actually worse than either of them. Added to the fact that neither was very empathetic, both could be sadistic at times and finally that both were rather oblivious once they were invested in something, meant that they failed to notice that Terry was quieter than normal that night, or the fact that he was once again withdrawing in on himself.

Towards the end of dinner that night, Fred and George were worried. Dri and Harry, their opponents in the war, had their heads together whispering and leaning over some form of parchment, the likes of which they had never seen before, had them apprehensive. They kept expecting some sort of retaliation from them and the feeling only increased as their mischievious grin's kept growing.
What they didn't expect was for the hall to be plunged into darkness.
Some people screamed and panicked, others froze in fright. Some tried to figured out what was going on whilst the older students and staff's wand hands went to wherever it was they stored their wands. Then the laughing started. It wasn't a kind laugh, or a jovial one. It was two voices, emmitting an evil and mad cackling, and then another voice ; older and deeper; than the first two. A fair number of the staff paled when they heard this laugh, and then deduced who the other two were. It was a man who's cackling laughter promised chaos and destruction and the younger laughs seemed to be the same. Snape nearly snarled in rage. The lights flickered back on to reveal...
Sirius Black, looking slightly confused, seeming like he was only laughing like he was for the sake of it. That made some people pause and re-evaluate the opinion's of the Auror's. This man was a famous Auror; the best, was a term used to describe him; and the students now had good reason to question his mental health. James Potter was looking at him incredulously as though even he couldn't quite believe his eyes.
The others were Adrian Black and Harry 'Call me Potter and Die' Gabriel. That sent shivers up everyone's spines.
Looking along the staff table, the students saw McGonagall looking very cautious and apprehensive, expressions that rarely found her face. Flitwick and Sprout seemed nervous their eyes constantly flicking around, and they looked ready to bolt at any moment. Vector, Quirrel and Sinestra were all as pale as ghost's and seemed scared of something that had yet to happen. Lily Potter looked resigned. James Potter and Sirius Black had positively gleeful expressions on their faces. Babbling was actually crying and kept muttering 'Why? Why did those two have to reproduce? And in the same year!' whilst Kettleburn had his arm around her. Hagrid and Dumbledore were their normal selves, Hagrid beeming and looking over the hall with pride, whilst the Headmaster was cool and calm with reassuring, twinkling blue eyes. And Snape...
Most people would probably suffer whiplash for how fast the twisting their necks back in a double take to confirm what they saw, and when they did, mouths dropped open in shock. The most-hated-man in the school, was currently wearing a pink and yellow hawaiin shirt, and board shorts with a picture of palm tree's on the red and gold design. He was also wearing sandals. Finally, his usually greasy hair, was frizzy and blown out in every direction in a huge afro, that cycled the colours neon green, gold, red, purple, hot pink and blue.
To say Snape looked murderous would be an understatement.
A camera flash went off. Everyone looked over at Gabriel and Black.
"And debuting this year, Marauders Jr. Co., presents it's first ever calender!" They said in unison, jumping onto the table and proudly presenting a calender. All the pictures in it showed Snape (dressed as he was) in various poses. The one they lingered on the most was one of Snape, and Lucius Malfoy (dressed similarly, with his blonde hair with strips of turquoise dye tied back into a ponytail) making peace sign's whilst holding a sign that read 'Allow Purebloods More Inbreeding Rights', complete with a Hippe Logo made out of snakes and skulls.
Saying that Snape looked Apocolyptic was an understatement.
The man opened his mouth to shout and everyone heard.
Bat sounds
Snape looked mortified, confused and angry all at the same time. Being purple with anger, red with embarrassment whilst a look of confusion was locked on his face wasn't a good look.
As the realization of what had happened sunk in, the whole school burst out laughing, bar the Slytherins and even a few of them had looks of amusement in their eyes which they turned on Draco. Then they quietened again when Black started barking. The first few sounded like nothing was wrong, then he stopped and thought, before trying again. When this failed he looked at his son a barked indiginately.
"Sorry old man, but no adult left untouched! Everyone up there is stuck with their inner animal's vocal chords!"
The chaos on the staff table became legendary. There were noises belonging to cats, ravens, badgers, horse's, owl's, dolphin's, foxes, Stag's and Doe's. Quirrel started hissing, which shocked quite a few poeple. Hagrid booming voice had turned into a dragons roar. Everyone looked at Dumbledore.
The old man smiled to himself, knowing that no student's spell, especially not a first year's, could have affected him. So, with that in mind, he sat forward and began to speak "Blaaaah, Blaaaah" And then abruptly stopped. But it was too late. Everyone had heard due to the blasted sonorous, that his inner animal was a goat.
With everyone on the staff glaring (not counting the impressed looks from James and Sirius and Hagrid's rather pleased look), they turned to the Twins and, to the shock of most people, Harry said "Now that you've seen.."
"...What we can do..." Dri continued
Floowed by Harry saying"...We are compelled to ask..."
Back to Dri who said"...Whether or not you..."
"...Want to Take us On!" They finished together.
The Twins and Lee shared a look. Then the two pulled out two paper crowns, whilst Lee tied a napkin to a fork. The trio surrounded the two first years. The Twins laid the crowns onto the table in front of them, and Lee waved the white fabric. All three knelt and began bowing, which caused gasps of shock and surprise to fly around the hall, especially given their next words.
"We surrender. We bow, before you, O'Mighty Prankster Kings!" They said together with Lee just nodded "Teach us! Teach us, O'Worthy Marauder Children." They began chanting
Harry and Dri looked at each other and had the same thought. Harry transfigured their clothes into medieval style. Harry's hair was at that moment shoulder length black curls. Dri's hair was similar in the colour and stule but was quite a bit shorter. They looked like someone you might see on 'Lord of the Rings' or 'Game of Thrones', was the general opinion amongst muggleborns. Then the paper crowns became Golden Crowns, each in a unique style that just seemed to look natural on the pair of them when they were donned. Lee's fork became a wooden flag pole, and the napking turned into a light blue coloured fabric embroidered on both sides by a leaping grey wolf with a pair of large white wings.
They looked like Kings.
The same sigil as was on the flag, was now burning above the staff, courtesy of a spell from both Harry and Dri each, along with a name on either side. 'Arkangel' and 'Grey'.
"If anyone want's to buy a copy of the Snivellous Snape calender, please speak with Gred and Forge Weasley who will take your order. 3 galleons for 12 months, 4 galleons for 16 months, and finally for a 2 year long calender is 5 galleons and 8 sickles," Harry announced.
"Mr Gabriel! Detention for disrespecting staff!" McGonagall shouted
"But we didn't disrespect anyone!" Harry protested
"Yeah we just wanted everyone to know what your inner animal was and treat you accordingly," Dri said with a put and wide puppy eyes that practically screamed innocence.
And then McGonagall realized what the boy had said. He announced that people should treat her in accordance with her cat self. In a school that currently held Sirius Black. Who's animal was a dog.
McGonagall put a petrifying spell on Black, and then left the hall with haste.
Harry and Dri began laughing again.
I have nothing at all to say this time so, Yozza Out!
