Adding Fuel to the Fire

            “How long is this going to take?” I asked nervously and looked around for any sign of a professor. Fred, George, and I were going to play a prank on Filch and they were setting up the fireworks. Normally I’d be all for this but I’ve been the one out of the three to get caught the last four times and Umbridge said the next time I got caught, she was suspending me for a month. I didn’t want that to happen so I was anxious to get this over worth.

            “Just a couple more minutes.” Fred answered as he set on of the fireworks to go off when Filch entered the room.

            “He’s almost here.” George said as he looked at the Marauder’s Map he borrowed from Harry.

            “Three minutes.” He told him.

            “Come on. Let’s hid already.” I begged them.

            “I have to set up the last one.” Fred said.

            “But if I get caught, I’m going to be suspended.” I said worriedly.

            “Come on.” George said and stood up. “We’ll hide while he does this.”

            “Ok.”

            George and I hid around the corner of the seventh floor corridor. I was nervous that Fred was going to get caught and I paced the hallway. “Aria, calm down. He won’t get caught.” George told me.

            “How long does he have?” I asked anxiously.

            “Done!” Fred yelled as he rounded the corner.

            “Good.” I sighed with relief.

            We heard the fireworks start to go off and the twins peeked their heads around the corner. “YOU!” I heard Filch yell.

            “Time to go.” Fred said and took off running.

            I looked at George with panic. “George! I’m going to get suspended!” I cried.

            He shook his head. “No you’re not.” He took my hand and we started running.

            I could hear Filch behind us but he wasn’t alone. I looked back and saw Draco, Crabbe, and Goyle. Draco was running faster than the others; which made me a little more panicked. “George! We’re going to get caught.”

            “No we’re not. Look.”

            I looked ahead of us and saw the Room of Requirement door appearing on the wall. A sense of relief overwhelmed me and George pushed the door open. We ran in and closed the door quickly. George and I started laughing and looked around the room. It wasn’t the same room that we’ve been using for Dumbledore’s Army. This room was smaller and had a couch and fridge and a door leading to a bathroom. “Well, looks like the room thinks we’ll be trapped here for a while.” George said.

            “I wonder where Fred went.” I said as I sat on the couch.

            “I’m sure he did. It’s Fred.” George sat by me. “Why are you so worried about being suspended?”
