CHAPTER 5
CAUGHT... OR NOT?
Lyra ran from the North Tower to the Gryffindor Common Room when Ancient Runes ended. She practically dragged Zara behind her as she ran.
"Jesus, woman! I've almost tripped like 3 times. These stairs aren't easy to run on!" Zara panted, but Lyra kept going.
"Balderdash," she said, breathlessly and the Fat Lady nodded before opening.
The common room began filling as classes where mostly over for the day. Lyra found the Weasley twins playing Exploding Snap in the corner and dragged Zara with her towards them.
"I need your help," she said, sitting between them and Zara followed her lead.
"Little Lyra! What can we help you with?" George said, focusing intently on his cards.
"Zara, what are you doing in the Gryffindor common room? Shouldn't you be off reading with the rest of your Raven buddies?" Free teased.
"Newsflash Weasley, we don't just read over at Ravenclaw." She replied sassily and pointed at one of his cards. Lyra thinks that counts as flirting.
Fred put the card down and George's card exploded. He high fived her, causing a warm pink to appear on her cheeks and nose.
"So what is it you needed help with, Little Lyra?"
"Need to prank some Slytherins." She said in a matter of fact tone and pointed to one of George's cards.
He put it down and Fred's exploded.
"Of course. What did they do this time."
Zara rolled her eyes. "Called me a filthy blood traitor because they got to class late and Parkinson is shorter then I am and couldn't see from behind me."
"Jerks."
Both Fred's and George's cards exploded.
"What do you have in mind, Little Lyra."
Lyra groaned, "Enough with the Little Lyra. I'm not that small."
"You are." Chuckled Zara.
"Only cause you three are giants."
The twins and Zara chuckled at Lyra's pout.
"Anyway, your plan?"
"Oh right! I figured it's time they were a little for Gryffindor pride, you know?" Lyra smiled deviously.
The twins smirked back. "We've got just the thing!"
"Wonderful. Midnight tonight, meet in here. Zara, you coming?"
"Nope. I leave the pranking to you three, I'll take care of the alibi for next morning."
"This is why you're my favorite." Lyra said leaning against Zara.
Suddenly Ron and Harry burst in the room, looking like they had died and gone heaven.
