Chapter Nine-Pranksters About
On Saturday morning James, Sirius and Remus woke up to find Peter and Lily gone. “Must have already left,” Sirius said.
“You guys want to go get some breakfast?” Remus asked.
“Sure,” James said. So they threw on some clothes and walked down to breakfast. When they got down their they realized it wasn’t breakfast it was Lunch time. “I didn’t know we slept that late,” James said.
“O well you guys want some lunch,” Sirius said. They sat down and started eating. The dining hall was much quieter considering how there was no one in school anymore. Except a few people. The only other person at the Gryffindor table was Arthur Weasley. He waved at them, “Hey Sirius I’m going over to hogsmeade today you want anything from Zonko’s?” he asked.
Sirius looked over at James and Remus, “Sure get us anything that would give us a good laugh.” Sirius said. “We’ll pay you when you get back.”
“Ok great Later guys,” Arthur said running off.
“I wonder how he’s getting to Hogsmeade?” James said. Sirius and Remus shrugged.
After lunch the boys went back up to the common room. “Alright we need to sort the Jelly beans,” Remus said. “I’ll go get them out of my trunk,” Remus came down holding five large packs of Every Flavor Jelly Beans. He handed each Sirius and James a pack. “Ok lets get sorting.” Remus said.
They each opened their pack and started looking very closely at the color of each. “Ok here is the vomit pile,” Sirius said. Putting a very dark greenish red jelly bean at one end of the table.
“Here’s the bugger pile,” James said putting a lighter green on another end of the table.
“Oooo here’s an orange,” Remus said popping a orange jelly bean in his mouth.
After about a half hour they had large piles of every nasty flavor you could think of. Vomit, Bugger, Sweat, blood and some other bodily wastes.
“so you guys want to go get some dinner,” James said.
“Sure,” Sirius and Remus said.
The three went down to dinner ate quickly and went back up to the common room.
“Well we should go to bed we got a big day tomorrow,” Sirius said. The three went up to bed and fell asleep.
The next morning James woke up first. He woke up Remus then Sirius, “C’mon we have to get down before Severus.” James said. So they put on their robes and walked down to the great hall. They hid behind a large statue of a man with a sword and the sorting hat on his head. They waited until they saw Severus, “Ok ready,” James asked.
“Yeah,” said Remus. So James let out three Firecrackers.
“Who’s there,” Severus said. “I’ll go get Professor Perrel.”
“Go Remus.” James said. Remus grabbed a Reakalot and snuck behind Severus dropped a Reakrott in Severus’s bag and took out his wand and said Reakalot. Almost immediately the smell filled the hall. Severus walked off cursing at no one. After Severus was out of sight. The three went down to breakfast. Discussing there success for their first prank.
After breakfast they went up to their dormitory grabbed the jelly beans and left for the kitchens. They got to the portrait of fruit, “ok lets see if Arthur was right.” James said. He tickled the pair and the portrait swung open. They walked in.
“Hello sirs,” said many house elves. “How may me help sirs.” One said.
“Well if you could put these jelly beans in the lunches of the Slytherins we would be most thankful.” Sirius said.
“Of course anything for sirs,” one said. James handed them the bag of jelly beans and the three left.
“So you guys want to go put some Reakrotts in Perrel’s room?” Sirius asked.
“Sure,” Replied Remus.
They crept down to the dungeons. The door was open Perrel wasn’t in there. Each one of them took out a ReakRotts through it in the classroom and pointed their wands at them and yelled Reakalot and the room went up in a green puff. (I would say what it smelled like but it is not appropriate) The three boys ran back to the Dining Hall because the smell was starting to come up into the great hall.
They sat down for lunch. The food had just appeared on their plates. They started eating while watching the Slytherin table. Severus, who still smelled rather bad was the first person take a bite of his food. He started chewing his face turned green and he started spitting food out left and right. Other Slytherins looked at him weirdly. Then they took a bite one by one each was spitting out their food. Looking just as strange as Severus. Pretty soon everyone in the dining hall was laughing hysterically at them. The teachers were looking at them very oddly.
After lunch the three went up to the common room discussing their success. Ten minutes before dinner they went down and hid again behind the statue of the man with the sword and the hat. After about five minutes people started walking by for dinner. Remus was the first to strike he pointed his wand out and said “Haragow beard.” the girl he hit let out a cry and ran down the hall. Next Sirius, “Haragow pits,” this boy jumped by the sight of his own arm pit hair growing and getting longer than a foot.
Then James “Haragow nose hair,” this was the nastiest thing James had ever seen. Then Down the hall way came Severus. All three of the boys saw him and all at the same time they yelled “Haragow pits” “Haragow beard” “Haragow nose”. Severus looked like a walking hair ball. He muffled a yell out of his long beard and ran tripping over the hair every other step. “You guys keep on going, I have to sneak behind the teachers table,” James said. James went and hid behind a banner of Hogwarts behind the staff table. One by one the students and teachers came in. Some students still had some extra hair by the doing of Sirius and Remus.
Finally when the Dining hall was full James took out the rest of the firecrackers and through them right behind the teachers. He got up and snuck off back to his table. He sat down and looked back the teachers were all up out of their seats looking dumbstruck at each other. The whole hall was laughing and pointing at them. In all the commotion James yelled over to Remus and Sirius “Way to go guys,” and the all gave a high five.
After the firecrackers stopped jumping around the teachers Dumbledore stood up. There was a very visible twinkle in his eye he seemed to be enjoying the jokes. “There seems to be some jokesters lurking around these castle walls. I’d just like you to know who ever you are you will be caught. Now let us eat.” Dumbledore said smiling. Other teachers looked very stern, but not Dumbledore.
After dinner they made their way back up to the common room. “Hey Sirius.” it was Arthur Weasley. “I got your stuff,” He came over and handed Sirius a bag full of Firecrackers, Reakalots. “There a few brand new things in there like Crackel a lot Fog enough. They then make popping noises and let out tons of fog.”
“Thanks a lot,” Sirius said.
“Yeah, thanks,” James said.
“Well its been a long day I’m going to bed,” Remus said.
“Me too,” Sirius said.
“I’ll be up later,” James said. The common room was empty. James thought how proud his father would be if he knew what James did today. Then there came a tapping on the window, “Tap.....Tap......Tap”
