Takes place in Harry's fifth year, and there are a few mistakes. Dedicated to Beth, who never helped me finish! :P

The Prank Wars.

Part 1

It was a quite day at Hogwarts. Fred and George were practicing making time potions in their favorite class, Potions.

Fred: It’s only our favorite class because we can play tricks on Snape and get away without him ever knowing!

George: Yeah, it so much fun. Here’s our next trick. *holds up a small bottle of the Veritaserum*

Fred: Where did you get that, George?

George: I ‘found’ it when we were leaving here last week.

Fred: Oh, I wonder if Professor Snape has noticed it missing yet?

George: Nope. Now, we have to put it in his water some how.

Just then, Snape left the classroom for a few minutes. Fred snuck up to the front of the classroom and was about to put some of the Veritaserum in his cup when a blinding flash of light appeared from behind him. He turned around to see two boys about the same age as him arguing over something. The first one was kinda tall and resembled Harry a whole lot, except for his eyes. The second one looked like a younger and happier version of Sirius Black.

Boy 1: Professor Arsenic told us not to drink it you dimwit.

Boy 2: Uh, you’re the one who made me drink it James.

The first boy was obviously named James, which struck George as odd considering he looked almost the same as Harry. The second one was looking around the classroom in shock.

James: Well, I’d say we’re still at Hogwarts, wouldn’t you Sirius.

Sirius: Most likely the future Hogwarts, because none of the people in here look like they’re from our class.

James: Yeah, really, look, here comes the Professor for this class. Maybe if we ask him, he can tell us what year we’re in.

Sirius: Why don’t we just ask one of the students.

James: Fine *turns to Fred* Excuse me, could you tell us what year we are in?

Fred: *staring in shock* Yeah, sure, it’s 2000.

Sirius: See, I told ya we were in the future.

James: Zip it Sirius. * to Fred* Um, what classroom is this?

Fred: Potions.

James: Well, at least we’re in the same class.

Snape walked in and stared in shock and horror.

Snape: *in a shaky voice* Oh. My. God, my past has come back to haunt me.

Snape ran and hid, cowering behind his desk. He looked at the two boys from the future, and made a cross with his fingers.

Snape: Go away! Leave me alone! I promise I’ll be good! Just go away!

James and Sirius walked over to Snape with evil grins on their faces.

Together: Boo.

Snape screamed and ran out of the room

James: Awwwwwww….. Did we scare little Snapey poo? Maybe he’s gone for good…

Sirius: Poor baby…

James: Aw, we didn’t get rid of him! Man, I was hoping for on lesson ‘Snape- free’

Sirius: I know the feeling.

All the students were staring as Snape suddenly screamed and ran away.

Snape was outside the room, trying to collect his thoughts.

Snape thinking: It’s all a dream. It’s just a dream. That’s it. I’ve been around my dream potions for two long. I need a vacation. All just a dream. When I walk beck in there, everything will be fine…

Snape walked into the class, looked around and upon seeing that it was not, in fact, a dream, screamed: NO!!!! NOT THEM AGAIN!!! AHHH!!!! DUMBLEDORE, HELP ME!!!! WHY, WHY ,WHY, CAN’T THIS BE A DREAM!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!

James: I always knew he would flip some day.

All of the students had ran to the door and stared after Snape. Fred and George turned to James and Sirius.

George: How’d you do that?

Sirius: Um...I don’t know.

Fred: Snape has never run away from anyone acting like a psychotic idiot before. We *he waved his arms, indicating himself and George* should know. We’ve tried.

George: That was too weird.

Elsewhere… in Transfiguration.

Professor McGonagall: Today we will be turning….

She was suddenly interrupted by Snape running down the hall screaming.

Snape: He’s come back to haunt me!!! No!! Help me!! He has his sidekick with him!! AHH!! GOD NO!!!

McGonagall: *runs into hall and stops Snape* What is all the commotion about Severus. I’m trying to teach my students!

Snape: *claming down slightly* My *pant* class *pant pant*

McGonagall: Yes what about your class.

Snape: They *pant* them *pant, pant* they’re back *looks horrified*

By this time the whole hall is full of students wondering what was going on. Harry walked up to Professor Snape to see if he could help (though I don’t know why he would want to).

Harry: Who’s them, Professor Snape?

Snape: *looks at Harry and screams* AUGGHHH!!!! POTTER!!! AUGH!! KEEP HIM AWAY!!!!

McGonagall gave Snape a weird look.

McGonagall: He’s not going to do anything to you, Severus. He’s a harmless boy.

Snape just stared at Harry with the look of utmost fear. Harry found this kind of awkward, considering the look was usually full of despise.

Snape: He’s… he’s… he’s gonna play a prank on me!!! I don’t know how he got from my classroom to up here but somehow he did it and now he’s gonna play a prank on me!!

Harry: Um.. Professor, I’ve been in the Transfiguration class the whole time.

McGonagall: *realizes who Snape is talking about*

McGonagall: So… y-y-your don’t mean…

Snape: Yes, yes I do!

McGonagall: GODDDDD NOOOOOOOO!!! Not them again! They’re worse than Fred and George!!!!!!!!!!!! DUMMMMMMBBBBBBLLLLLLLLEEEEEDOREEEEEEE!!!!!

Harry: Worse than Fred and George? The only people that I can think of that would possible be worse than Fred and George would be….. um…. Sirius as a kid, and my ddddaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa…. my god.

Harry took off running at top speed down the hall.

A few flights of stairs, one missing door, another moving staircase, and a few dozen hallways later, Harry was in Potions class, where students were talking about who the new kids were.

Before entering the classroom, Harry paused.

Harry talking to himself: It was just a coincidence. That’s all. My dad is dead. Nothing else. A spirit, like my mom. My dad is not here right now.

Harry ran into the room, and like Snape, looked around the room. Upon seeing James and Sirius, he paused, then ran up to them.

Harry: It’s really you!

Harry ran and gave James a hug.

Harry: I’m so glad to see you!

James gave Harry the oddest look, then turned to Sirius.

James: *whispering* This guy gay?

Sirius: *also whispering* I dunno. How could I? All I know is that your twin just walked in the door…

James: *still whispering* Twin what are you talking about?

Sirius: *yep, still whispering* Haven’t you noticed! The only difference between the two of you is the eyes. Hummm..

James: *whispering* I have a twin in the future?

Sirius: *whispering* Maybe he’s your future son.

James: *whispering* What! I’m never gonna have kids! They are two much of a pain in the rear!

Sirius: *whispering* Whatever…

Harry got off James, and looked around. For some reason, Ron was in the room, talking to Fred and George, and was now giving Harry one of the oddest looks.

Ron: What are you doing, Harry?

Harry pulled Ron over to the side.

Harry: Ron, that’s my dad!

Ron looked over to the boys: What? Your dad? Are you sure?

Harry: How many ‘James Potters’ do you know?

Ron looked up in shock, then walked over to James.

He shook his hand.

Ron: Sir, I must say that I am honored to met you. You, who stood up to the great Lord… I mean, he-who-must-not-be-named. A true hero, you are, sir!

Harry stood by the door and shook his head.

Harry thinking: He’s more like Percy every day…. And if he could read my thoughts, I wouldn’t be walking right now. I’d be dead.

James: Huh? First a guy gives me a hug, and then you’re shaking my hand…

Sirius: Weird.

Dumbledore walked in.

Dumbledore: James, Sirius, how nice to see you again. Although, you picked a rather odd place to appear. You are scaring everyone.

James and Sirius: We are? All right! *they give each other a high five*

James: Dumbledore, you look older…

Dumbledore: As I should. After all, it has been about 20 years since we last saw each other.

Sirius: Actually, it was yesterday in detention.

Dumbledore: Still a little smart-ass, are you?

James: Professor Dumbledore! You … you… just swore! And at a student!

Sirius: *pats Dumbledore on the shoulder* Sir, I’m proud of you, sir.

Dumbledore shook his head.

Dumbledore: I must apologize. I’m not myself today.

He looked over at Fred and George, who were laughing insanely.

Dumbledore: You wouldn’t happen to know anything about this, would you?

Fred and George stopped laughing instantly, stood up and tried their best to look innocent. Not that it worked of course…

Fred: Us sir?

George: What ever gave you that idea?
