The next day Fred, George, and Alora grabbed the aging potion and ran into the Great Hall to loud cheers and claps.

Full of excitement the three got ready to drink the potion when Hermione stepped in.

"It's not going to work." She said.

"Oh yeah?" said Fred. "And why is that Granger?" George asked. "Yes Hermione please fill our minds with your wisdom." Alora said sitting next to her.

Hermione huffed. "This, is an aging line, Dumbledore drew it himself. You three don't possibly think you could get through it." She said in a know-it-all tone.

"So? What if we do, our tricks are the best they work a hundred percent." Fred replied.

Hermione put her book she was reading in her lap. "So! A genius like Dumbledore couldn't possibly be fooled by such a dimwitted trick as an aging potion."

"But, that's why it's so brilliant." Fred said. "Cause he's so pathetically dimwitted!" George said.

Alora laughed, got to her feet, and stood next to the towering twins. "Ready Fred? Ready George?" Alora asked enthusiastically. "Ready Alora!" They said together.

They tinked the small flasks and drank the potion.

The three jumped over the age line; nothing happened. Cheers came from every direction. Hermione scoffed still knowing their plan wasn't going to work.

Alora put her parchment with her name on it in the Goblet first, then Fred went, then George.

There was a whoosh from the Goblet; again nothing happened. More cheers, Fred, George, and Alora celebrated. They pulled it off! Either one of them could be a Triwizard Champion!

Then their plan was ruined.

Blue flames shot out from the Goblet, tiny bits of parchment with it.

Then.

BOOM!

A gust of wind threw Alora, Fred, and George in the air. Alora heard Hermione yell. "I told you so!"

Alora hit the stone ground with a thud, her ribs began to hurt, she hoped she hadn't broken them again.

Alora groaned and sat up holding onto her side to a bunch of students laughing and pointing at the three of them.

The three looked at each other; suddenly they had grey hair and wrinkles. "You said!" George yelled. "You said!" Fred yelled.

The twins jumped at one another and started wrestling. "You gits said it would work!!" Alora yelled and jumped on top of them, more laughter came from the students, "Fight, fight, fight!" they all chanted.

Professor Mcgonagall and Snape came running in, which silenced the students, and broke up the fight between the twins and Alora.

"Weasleys! Ms. Snape!" Mcgonagall yelled. "What is this foolery all about?" The three stayed silent Alora looked at her father, her hair going back to its red and brown color, and the wrinkles leaving her face.

"Aging potion." Snape said blandly. "Oh! I suppose you used it to sneak into the tournament?" Mcgonagall asked.

Fred, George, and Alora holding back their laughter looked at the floor.

Professor Mcgonagall noticed them, "Detention! Three weeks! And thirty points from Gryffindor, each!" She snapped.

"Mcgonagall must be givin up on us. If we were first years, we'd probably be straight on the train home." Fred whispered as everyone cleared out of the Great Hall.
