Y7 ༄ halloween and quidditch

The next few weeks passed by quickly, and before they knew it it was time for the first Hogsmeade weekend.

Lyra, Tonks, and Charlie went to Honeydukes, before going to Zonko's, and then stopping at the Three Broomsticks for butterbeer.

"Ophelia and Elijah are on a date." whispered Tonks, taking a sip of her butterbeer.

"They're cute, and I feel single." whispered Lyra.

"You know, sometimes I wonder how all of us seventh years became friends." said Charlie.

"I wonder that too." said Ryan, walking past them.

"Where are you going?" yelled Tonks, turning her head.

"Honeydukes with Anthony, Stefan, Jake, and Edward." yelled Ryan.

Lyra, Tonks, and Charlie continued sitting there, talking and drinking their butterbeer till they eventually went back to the castle.

A few days later it was Halloween. Ophelia and Elijah had planned something for the first years, which they had done every year since their third year.

"Gather around first years." yelled Lyra, as the first years gathered in the entrance hall.

Lyra, Ophelia, Elijah, and Liz were standing on the staircase of the entrance hall, the first years standing bellow.

"Logan Pierce, eighteen year old Hufflepuff got murdered." said Ophelia.

"He was last seen in the Dungeons, and his body was found in the Potions classroom." said Elijah.

"One of you will get a paper with a hint on it. All of you will have to work together and find out which people murdered Logan, alongside where he got murdered and what spell or weapon was used." said Liz.

Lyra handed one of the first years the paper, before the game started and the first years immediately took off, the four seventh years following them.

"But the D obviously stands for Defense Against The Dark Arts." said Jeremy, Elena's little brother.

"Nuh uh, he was last seen in the Dungeons which also starts with a D." said Celestia, running off.

The rest of the first years also ran off, and the four seventh years let out a sigh before running after them.

For the next hour, the four seventh years followed around the first years, not giving them any clues.

Eventually, the first years were at the Quidditch pitch, searching as the four seventh years just stood there, Rachel now with them while holding her camera.

"Look!" yelled Katie from the stands, pointing at the field.

On the field, Sebastian and Charlie were dragging along Logan his body.

"Get them!" yelled Celestia.

The first years immediately came down from where they were and towards Sebastian and Charlie, who both let go of Logan and ran off.

Celestia managed to take Charlie down to the ground, while Katie and Jeremy took Sebastian down to the ground as Rachel took a picture of it.

"Charlie and Sebastian killed Logan!" yelled one of the first years.

"Congratulations, you guys have solved the murder!" yelled Tonks, appearing out of nowhere with a box.
