"Are you sure?" One of taller ones asked and George groaned. All this questioning was taking the fun out of the prank.
"Yes, yes. One hundred percent sure. Now get in," Fred said crossing his arms and looking at the water. He had to admit he could see why they were skeptical. The Great Lake didn't exactly look inviting and he didn't doubt that they'd heard the stories of the giant squid but they would be fine. If they swam fast enough the squid wouldn't get them. They had absolutely nothing to worry about.
"But it's cold and we could get sick," A girl asked. He thought she said her name was Susan Bones but he didn't have it in him to care to remember. He just wanted to see them get in the water.
"That's what the Madame Pomfrey is for," George glared at them.
"Who?" The tall one spoke again and this was so much more complicated than it should've been. The twins were tempted to push them. Finally they caved,all of them walking slowly towards the water's edge.
"Have a nice swim," George whispered into Fred's ear and they burst out laughing. Their laughter grew as they heard the splashes that meant the first years had entered the water.
"Wait George wait," Fred said as the splashes sounded further away.
"What?"
"Does the giant squid eat people?"
"What's touching my leg?" They heard one of the first years say in the distance and the twins paused.
"Bloody hell! Let's get Hagrid. " They screamed, running off towards Hagrid's large form in the distance.

Sorry this is so short and rather bad. I literally wrote this in my class... oh well.
