The moon hung high in the night sky as Draco and Harry, under the cover of invisibility, sneaked into the Gryffindor common room. Their latest plan involved a bit of magical trickery that would leave the Gryffindors puzzled and amused in equal measure.

The two friends shared a conspiratorial grin as they surveyed the room, spotting Fred and George engrossed in a game of wizard chess. Draco whispered to Harry, "This time, let's go for something that will leave them scratching their heads for days."

Harry nodded in agreement. He reached into the pocket of his robes and pulled out a handful of enchanted feathers they had acquired from Filch's confiscated items. These feathers, when released, would create a series of lifelike, shimmering images of various animals.

The Gryffindor common room was the perfect setting for their prank. With a wave of their wands and a whispered incantation, the enchanted feathers sprang to life, transforming into a parade of floating animals. Winged unicorns, fluttering phoenixes, and even a cheeky-looking kneazle soared around the room, leaving the Gryffindors in awe.

Fred and George exchanged bewildered glances as the enchanted creatures weaved through the air, seemingly defying gravity. The rest of the Gryffindors, drawn by the spectacle, watched in amazement as the magical menagerie unfolded.

The room filled with whispers of awe and laughter as the Gryffindors attempted to interact with the illusory creatures. Some reached out to touch the shimmering feathers, while others tried to catch the playful kneazle.

Unable to contain their amusement any longer, Draco and Harry revealed themselves from under the Invisibility Cloak. "Enjoying the show, Gryffindors?" Draco asked with a smirk.

Fred and George, realising they had been pranked once again, erupted into laughter. The enchanted animals, now dissipating into sparkling motes of magic, added an ethereal glow to the room.

"Well, well, Malfoy and Potter," George said, wiping tears of laughter from his eyes. "You've certainly outdone yourselves this time."

Fred clapped Draco on the back. "I have to admit, that was a stroke of genius. Mind sharing the secret behind this magical menagerie?"

Draco exchanged a sly look with Harry. "Trade secret, Weasley. A magician never reveals his tricks."

The room burst into applause as the Gryffindors, enchanted by the unexpected spectacle, gave a collective cheer. The prank, though seemingly chaotic, left behind an atmosphere of camaraderie and shared laughter.

As Draco and Harry made their exit, the enchanted animals fading into the night, the Gryffindors continued to recount the night's magical escapade. The Slytherin-Gryffindor alliance, now firmly established through mischievous collaboration, added another chapter to the legendary tales of Hogwarts camaraderie.
