'A few months later'

Elizabeth and the twins burst out of Potions with Angelina and Lee, and they all laughed and shouted about how George and Fred had slipped a warts potion into Professor Snape's tea. Of course, Snape had found out, and the twins had gotten one hundred points deducted from their, but no one cared, since Elizabeth had gained fifty points earlier, in Professor Potts' class for 'good detection and distinction between a Mandrake, without pulling it, and some Venomous Tentacula.' It had been a few months into the school year and Elizabeth was excelling in her studies, and the twins only worked hard enough to get good enough marks to pass. Angelina had quickly become Elizabeth's fast friend, who spent hours up at night whispering together. The twins had accepted Lee and the three had been devising new pranks to pull. Of course, Percy Weasley got immensely upset when he found out about the twins shenanigans and almost cursed them. The small group had befriended Oliver Wood, a third year who played Quidditch for Gryffindor. They all admired him, but laughed because he took the game so ridiculously seriously that he focused on that, and that alone. Elizabeth raced down the hall and up the stairs to the Gryffindor common room where she was greeted by utter silence and Professor McGonagall. The Professor stared at her harshly and demanded.

"Where are the twins?"

Angelina entered the room, breathless and laughing, with Lee and the twins right behind her. They all froze when the Professor glared at the twins. "One HUNDRED points, Weasleys? You will serve a weeks worth of detention in my office for it. Shame on you. Professor Snape had a fit. This will NOT happen ever again, you understand?" She was trying to hide a smile on her face as she looked at the small band. The twins nodded and Professor McGonagall strode out of the room.

"One hundred points!" cried a kid.

"From Professor Snape?!" Another one added in

"What on earth did you do, twins?" Oliver asked.

"We snuck a pimple pastel into his tea. He's now uglier than before." Exclaimed the twins.

The entire common room burst into laughter. "Nice one, Fred, George. Even Carl and I didn't think of that in our first year!" said a seventh year, who was lounging on the couch with a group of his friends surrounding him. Suddenly, the prefects entered the room and the Head Boy followed.

"I cannot believe this! Fifty points behind Slytherin! And one hundred behind Ravenclaw. We're lucky to still have as many points as we have with you two around!" cried the Head Boy.

"Oi, calm down, Prat! We did worse damage in our first year, didn't we, mates?" cried Carl. Percy Weasley shook his head in disgust and frowned at the twins. Charlie Weasley gave the twins a giant thumbs up and mouthed 'nice.' to them.

"Everyone, up to your dorms. No talking until supper!" said Prat, the furious Head Boy. "Prefects, I want one of you in each room to insure the no speaking policy is enforced. The entire House shuffled up to their dorms, but not before giving the twins and Elizabeth a grin or a high five and the occasional murmured, "Nice trick."

Elizabeth grinned and grabbed Angelina's arm, "I do believe we now get renown applause for that one." Angelina winked and they trudged up to their dormitories to study before dinner
