I made this story up a few months back. It got stuck to my head and i tried to shove it away but it kept coming back. So I went on writing about it and had posted the first part on fanfiction.net ... I dunno whether its appealing to all of you but its a comedy and it really is up to you all imaginations.... Here is the info... Mind the grammars and mistakes, I'm pretty bad at it at times... Hee!
Voldermort is dead. The Order was bored. What did Albus think of? A game of course! Now most Order members have to play a game of Magical Hide and Seek to pass their time. Non OOTP/HBP/DH compliant. HGSS/BWFD/HPGW/LBRW/RLNT...
"Welcome everyone to my humble abode! Now, I believe everybody is here for the game?" Albus Dumbledore asked, eyes twinkling at everybody.
It was a few weeks ago during one of the Order meetings that Dumbledore came up with a plan. More of a Game, actually. Right after the death of Lord Voldermort (Harry and the others snorted when Ron made up a song for him. "Lord Voldermort, Am afraid we'll miss you not.") The Order has been slacking around lately. It was when Dumbledore gave the idea of a game did they perk up a little. Now, they are standing in the hallway of Dumbledore's home.
It was spacious, almost like a manor, almost like a castle. Either way, it's a big house and they didn't know what Dumbledore could do with such a "humble abode" anyways. Members who were present were Harry Potter, Ronald Weasley, Hermione Granger, Ginevra Weasley, Draco Malfoy, Molly Weasley, Arthur Weasley, Lavender Brown, Fred and George Weasley, Luna Lovegood, Neville Longbottom, Bill Weasley, Fleur Delacour, Nymphadora Tonks, Remus J. Lupin, Sirius Black, Severus Snape, Mad-eye Moody, Minerva McGonagall, Kingsley Shaklebolt, Aberforth Dumbledore and Albus Dumbledore. By the look that Albus was giving, it was going to be a great day.
"I really am happy that most of you were willing enough to take part in the game, I didn't expect to see some of you here." Albus said, twinkling at Severus Snape. Snape merely sneered and scowled at Hermione Granger, who was stifling a giggle behind her hand. The night before, she had managed to persuade him into taking part. And trust her to really 'persuade' him that he finally relented and agreed to take part in whatever she was harping on.
"Now, there are a few instructions to be given out before the game starts. And I trust my brother to give the instructions out so that I can have time to prepare for the game. Now if Minerva would like kindly, please, join in helping me out." Minerva McGonagall inclined her head and walked up to Albus, taking his hands and walked away from the hall. Aberforth snorted and turned to the rest of them.
"Fine then, as all of you may know, it takes a bored, senile, maudlin old man like Albus to come up with a game like this," Severus snorted, while a few more smiled at the comment, "though it's for our good. We'd be dying of boredom by the end of July. Now, the game is called Hide and Seek. Anybody here is familiar with the game?" Aberforth asked, looking around. Harry, Ron, Hermione, Ginny, Remus, Sirius, Tonks and Severus's hand went up.
"Ah, I suppose those who lived Muggle know what it is, and those who befriend the Muggles know what it is too... But... Snape?" Aberforth asked, raising one eyebrow at him. Severus merely sighed and kept looking at Sirius Black, who was smirking at him.
"Let's just say, I used to be a champion at hiding when I was in school." Severus answered. Sirius and Remus stifled their giggling and passed it off as a cough.
"Yes... Yes indeed... he was... wasn't he, Remus?" Sirius asked, looking up at Remus, who merely nodded and then shook his head when he started shaking with laughter again. Aberforth merely shrugged. Draco put up his hands after everyone had set their hands down.
"Yes, Mr. Malfoy?" Aberforth asked.
"Please... call me Draco." Draco said. Aberforth rolled his eyes.
"What difference does it make; you are of the same person anyway. What is it, Draco?"
"My father will be arriving soon. Shouldn't we wait for him?"
"Who, Malfoy Senior? He wants a shot at this game too, eh?" Aberforth chuckled.
After the death of Voldermort, the rest found out that both Malfoys have been working secretly as spies for the Order too, giving private information to Snape, who then passes it to Hermione, who then passes it to the Order. Knowing that Malfoy Senior wants to be part of a Muggle game was indeed a joke.
"He has been trying to settle down in what Mum might say... A healthier lifestyle choice." Draco smirks as the rest chuckle.
"Never mind, he can join in later. Okay then, this game is called Hide and Seek. You merely hide, while the other seeks," Everybody groaned at the dry joke, "though there are twists in the game and I need everyone to listen to the instructions carefully." At that point, everyone paid attention.
"Now as you all know, we are magical folks, unlike those Muggles. So, we may have a little more fun than usual... Now there are a few people here that are exempted from playing. The hosts of the game are, obviously, Me, Albus and Minerva. Albus and Minerva are going to cast obstacles and charms around the rooms where you will hide. The one calculating the scores will be Kingsley Shaklebolt and Me. Molly and Arthur, since they didn't want much to participate but merely be audience, are the refreshments taker. Anybody feels like having a break, just go to them, though time is precious. They are cheerleaders too, cheering the team on forward. Moody, considering the fact that his magical eye can look through anything and everywhere will be the Hinter. He will give hints on where one is hidden to the seeker, Though one point will be deducted from every hints taken... and lastly, Remus, since he has the acute sense of smell and he could spot on where you are, where you've been and what you've been doing... so he stays back on, supporting the group too."
"You mean, he is part cheerleader too?" Sirius asked, smirking at Remus, who merely folded his arms across his chest and ignored Sirius.
"Yes, that... and something else. Now, I believe that is all the instructions. I will pass the sorting of groups to Albus." Aberforth said. Just in time, Albus came by with Minerva beside him.
"Ah, I trust you told them the instructions?"
"Yes, I did."
"Fine then. Will all those exempted, stand on the right, while those taking part, stand on the left." Albus said. The group parted into two. Remus, Moody, Kingsley, Molly and Arthur stood on the right hand side of Albus while Tonks, Harry, Sirius, Draco, Fleur, Ron, Luna, Neville, Hermione, Severus, Bill, Ginny, Lavender, Fred and George took the left. Albus nodded with approval at the number of players.
"Good then, I will be in need of three seekers and thirteen hiders, including Malfoy Senior when he arrives. Remember the piece of parchment I gave for you to write your name in? Place them in this hat. Once your name is called, Hiders stand by Minerva's right and Seekers on the left." Albus said, pulling out the Sorting Hat. Obviously, even the Sorting Hat was bored. Everyone stepped up and place their parchment in the hat. Once everybody did, Albus shook the hat, causing it to groan.
"Slowly, Old Man. I'll spit everything out before you know it." The Hat said, eliciting a chuckle from Albus.
"Sorry there, Old Friend. Would you please do the honor of jumbling the whole thing up?" Albus said. The Hat nodded and a hum was heard from it. Finally...
"Am done. Shall I get on with it?"
"Yes please, do the honors." Albus said, stepping back, holding the hat out. The Hat cleared its throat (or whatever it is that Hats have) and went on.
"Oh, You may not think I'm pretty, But do not judge by what yo--"
"Oh cut the crap and go on with the Sorting will ya? Its not the first year ceremony!" Aberforth exclaimed. Albus chuckled and shook his head while Minerva merely glared at him. The Hat shook himself before a small "Humph!" was heard.
"Fine then. First Hider... RON WEASLEY!!" The Hat shouted. Ron looked surprised and stood by McGonagall's right. The Hat then paused for a while.
"Second Hider... SIRIUS BLACK!!" Sirius shrugged.
"Well, I'd rather be Seeker... I can seek some people out..." He said, before walking towards Ron, glancing at both Remus and Snape. The Hat went quiet.
"Third Hider...GINEVRA WEASLEY!!" Ginny walks up to Ron. A few more minutes later, there were twelve Hiders and three Seekers. The Hiders consist of Ron, Ginny, Sirius, Hermione, Severus, Neville, Fleur, Draco, Luna, Lavender, Fred and George. The Seekers were Tonks, Harry and Bill.
"Now, I am very happy with the choices, and no doubt you will succeed in this game. However, if suspected foul play, or also known as... cheating..." Albus said, looking at the twins, who merely smirked innocently at him... (Really, who can smirk innocently except for Severus Snape?) ..".. The witch or wizard shall be disqualified from the game... Now, there is a twist in the game. No wands are allowed."
The whole group, except Severus that is, gasped at the thought of not having wands to use. Albus shook his hand to get their attention.
"Now, now... I was just kidding. Wands may be used for self defense, but not for cheating in any ways... We will know if you have done so and we will retract you from the game." Albus said.
"Wait, wait... Self Defense? What do you mean?" Ginny asked.
"Well, let's just hope you paid clear attention towards Defense against the Dark Arts lesson, Miss Weasley... Now if the Hiders may please, kindly stand in front of me."
They did and stood in front of Dumbledore.
"There are about thirty five rooms in this house, including bedrooms, lavatories, libraries and drawing rooms. If I call upon your name, kindly run upstairs and find a place to hide. When all is done, the seekers will be given a new set of instruction before running towards the task. Now... first... Mr. Weasley?" Albus said. Bill, Fred, George and Ron looked at each other before asking..."Which one?" Dumbledore chuckled again before saying..."The first Hider, Mr Weasley..."
Ron nodded his head before breathing out. He quickly ran out of the hall before his footsteps dissapeared. They waited a few seconds before Albus called out for Sirius. He shrugged and walked confidently out the door. Snape scowled under his breath.
"Confident Git..."
After that Ginny went off, and then Hermione followed by Severus, Fleur, Neville, Lavender, Draco, Luna, Fred and George. After George managed to run off, Albus turned to the Seekers.
"Now, My seekers... I expect you guys to play fair and well... Now the instructions I am about to give you are not really instructions. They are basically a heads up on what you are going to encounter. Boggarts, Doxies, Elves and some not so dangerous animals and creatures. Now you have your wands, I suppose? Good! Now... the first person to come back with most victims and in the less amount of time shall win! Now... at the count of three..." Albus said.
"Wait! Dora!" Tonks turned to see Remus calling for her. She ran to him and hugged him. Remus pulled back and smile at her.
"Go get 'em, Tiger!" Remus said. Tonks gave a growl and jumped up and down before kissing Remus. She pulled away when she heard Albus gave a 'three' and ran out of the hall... only to fall face first on the floor.
"Ooooo...Ouch..." came from the room as she groaned in pain. Remus merely winced and gave her a smug smile when she looked up at him...
"Go slowly...tiger..." Remus said. She got up, shook herself and ran out.

--------------------------
--
Tonks got towards the first floor and she knew there would most definitely be someone in one of the rooms down here. There were about twelve or so rooms, so they will definitely be no doubt. She remembered when she was young; she used to play games with Sirius that always involves with one room in particular. She smirked to herself and prayed that nobody knew where he was.
She went to the first room and opened the door. She peeked inside and saw nothing. She closed it the door and turned to the other door. She peeked in and saw nothing. There was another closed door on the left side of the room and Tonks smirked.
She went in and tip toed slowly towards the door. She counted to up to five before she attacked. She burst into the room, the door opened in front of her with a bang.
"WOTCHER, SIRIUS!!" She shouted and laughed when she heard a thump in the room. She drew back the shower curtains and saw Sirius sprawled on his ass, on the floor. She sat herself on the sink table and wiggled her eyebrows at him.
"Damn it, Tonks... How did you... Ow!!" Sirius yelped as he tried to get up. He fell back again, rubbed his back, before standing up again. He glared at Tonks, who was rocking her legs back and forth.
"How did you know I was here?" Sirius asked, rubbing his butt.
"I know you, Siri... You'll always hide in the lavatory no matter what. Has it been a habit?" Tonks asked, giggling.
"Well, I thought it would take forever and I was thinking, what if I needed the loo? And I couldn't run about without being seen, so I hid in the loo!"
"Unfortunately, it took me less than a minute or so to find you. What a shame. I wonder what Severus is going to say when he found out you were discovered first." Tonks giggled.
"What, you mean nobody has found him yet?" Sirius frowned. Tonks shook her head.
"Obviously all those times he hid from you Marauders was an experience for him to relive it today. That is why he lasted longer than you. Anyway, we had better go now. So come on then, let's go, Paddy!" Tonks said, grabbing Sirius by the hand.
Suddenly, a long piece of purple string tied itself on Sirius wrists and another end was handed to Tonks. She grabbed it and looked at Sirius in surprised. Sirius tried pulling it off and gasped as it tightens itself.
"These things are worse than the Azkaban chains!" Sirius exclaim.
"Cool!! Now you can't run away." Tonks said, pulling on the string towards the hall.
--
After Tonks left, the rest conjured up chairs and a table for each other to sit down. Everybody did, except for Remus, who had his arms folded in front of his chest and was smirking at the doorway.
"Remus, why don't you sit down? It will take a while for the game to finish..." Aberforth said, sitting down beside Moody and Kingsley. Remus turned to them and smiles wide.
"I have a feeling that a Seeker is going to find a Hider soon..."
"Oh yeah, who will it be?" Molly asked.
"You'll see..." Remus said, and turned back to the hallway. Exactly five minutes later, Tonks came in with a wide smile on her face, Sirius trudging along behind her with a pout. Everybody got up and cheered at Tonks, who gave curtsies to everyone. She handed Sirius to Albus, who strike off his name from the board.
"First Hider seeked, Sirius Orion Black! Now Sirius, you may join either Remus or the table." Albus said. Sirius went to stand beside Remus, whose arms were still folded across his chest, smirking at him.
"Trust Tonks to find you fast..."
"She is a prat..."
"Dude, number one rule in Hide and Seek, never hide in the lavatory." Sirius eyes widened.
"How did you know I was there??"
"Because you smell like crap..." Remus said; turn around to find a seat, still smiling.
--
Bill Weasley was on the second floor, going through rooms after rooms, looking for a certain sign of somebody hiding or so. He grabbed a doorknob and fell straight into it, into a very dark room, screaming and landing on his back, on a very soft cushion. Bill looked around him in the dark, trying to find certain hints on what he was in... Or on. It was rather soft and cushiony.
"Hmm, weird... this feels like Fleurs' bum..." Bill said aloud, pinching the 'cushion' below him. He bounced up and down for a few times before lying back, trying to get his breathing in place. He felt a tickle on his left arm and shook it off. He tried to get up but then was pulled back down. He tried again and was once pulled down again. He then felt as if he knew what he was on.
"Oh shit, don't tell me am on Devil's Snare?" Bill said, wriggling about.
His doubts came true when he felt the tentacles of the plant grabbed his ankles and waist and tried to pull him and choke him. Bill stayed still and closed his eyes, willing his heart to slow down. His right hand was pinned to his pocket and he felt around for his wand. When he did, he pulls it out slowly and muttered a spell.
A big spark of blue light spurt out of his wand and flew right in front of him. The plant shivered a little before tugging him down again. Bill raises his free hand and pointed his wand to the fire.
"Incendio!!"
The fire erupted high and Bill had to cover his eyes from the flame eruption. He heard something squealed before feeling the tentacles loosen up and let him fall down again.
--
Harry was on the first floor, going through door like mazes and rooms before reaching to a very small, brown door. He took out his wand and got himself ready for any attacks. He burst forward into the room, wand at the ready and focused when he heard a thump.
He whirled around to see what had caused the sound and saw nothing peculiar. All he saw was a typical bedroom. The walls were that of pastel cream color, the windows were enchanted with a wonderful view; the ceiling was somewhat enchanted to look as if it's moving and the floors were wooden tiled. There was a four-poster bed, donned in Gryffindor colors a large, Mahogany wardrobe and a full length mirror at its side. There was a fireplace and two large armchairs in front of it with a coffee table in between.
There was a door on the left hand side which Harry took no time in looking into to find nothing. He went to the middle of the room and stood there. He turns to the wardrobe and ponders.
It looks beautiful...
It's big and beautiful...
It's big enough to fit lots of clothes...
It's big enough to fit a person...
Harry grinned.
He went up slowly to the wardrobe and studied the designs. It was of dark brown with a certain smooth look to make it sleek and more sophisticated. Harry ran his hand on the designs.
He jerks the wardrobe door open and saw tons of robes and clothes, in all kind of colors and he tilted his head in question. He grinned again as he saw the robes move slightly. He raised a hand and pulled off a couple of robes and clothes to find Neville, eyes tightly shut, standing behind it.
"Hey there, Neville... I've caught you." Harry smile. Neville open his eyes slightly and his face fell in disappointment.
"Oh man, I thought I could last long. Guess it will never happen then..." Neville went out of the wardrobe and stood in front of Harry.
"Sorry about that, mate..." Harry smile apologetically at Neville and pat his back, "... well, you know the drill." Harry saw a red string appear and tied itself onto Neville's wrist and the other end floated into Harry's hand. They both smile at each other.
"Lead the way then." Neville said.
As Harry was about to pull Neville out of the room, the ceiling began to boom. They both look up to see lightning and dark clouds move about furiously and howling winds swept into the room. Both Harry and Neville separated as they ducked for cover as they saw something fell out of it.
It was big and it had flailing hands and it was screaming and... It had red hair.
It was Bill!
--
Bill felt himself being pulled into the dark abyss and out a brightly lit room. He groaned as he fell hard on the floor and tried to get up slowly.
"I hate this game... Even Quidditch wasn't this dangerous. I don't know why Muggles love it." Bill stood up and stretches himself, running a hand over his neck. He turns to study the room and saw Neville by the bedside and he gave a whoop of joy.
"Alright! I got Neville!" He fisted both his hands and pumps it into the air.
"Actually... I got him first, Bill... You were actually late by a few minutes."
Bill turn to see Harry emerge from behind the armchair, grinning at him. Bill saw Neville raised his hands to let the strings be visible and let his hands fall and slap his thighs.
"I can't believe this... I really hate this game now." Bill shook his head as Harry laugh.
"Don't give up now Bill... Look forward to it! Especially since Fleur is one of the Hiders too..." Harry wiggled his eyebrows at him as he grab the string and pull Neville out. "...Bye Bill. Have fun!"
Bill brightens up for a while. That's right! Fleur is in the game too! With that in his mind, he set of running to find her.
Oh Fleur, Oh Fleur, Oh Fleur!!
--
Harry emerges into the hall with Neville behind him and it erupted with cheers and claps.
Harry gave a bow and walk up to Dumbledore to pass him Neville and strike off the name from the board.
"Second Hider seeked, Neville Longbottom! There, Mr. Longbottom, I am sure you will excel better in the next series of games. For now, why don't you join us for some tea?" Dumbledore pat him on the back and assist him towards the table.
Harry was about to go off when Sirius called him back.
"Good going there, Harry!"
"Sirius? I thought you were in the game too?" Harry frowned.
"He was. Unfortunately for him, his hiding place was like a large signboard, pointing 'Sirius is here!' for Tonks." Remus grinned as Sirius scowl blackly at him.
"Tonks caught you? Wow..." Harry was amazed. Tonks was the first to seek someone. Now he felt in danger.
"Well, she is a prat..." Sirius scoffed.
"That prat is your niece and my wife... If you don't stop saying that about her, I'll shut you up in a way that you didn't think I am capable of doing." Remus growled.
Sirius and Harry backed up from Remus, knowing that the full moon was just about four days from it and Remus can be quite dangerous during these vital times.
"Well, I got to go now... Bye!" Harry ran off, leaving Sirius smiling apologetically at a scowling Remus.
A few seconds after that, knocking could be heard from the front door. Dumbledore stood up and swung it open.
"Lucius! How nice it is to see you here! Come in, come in!" Dumbledore lead in a well dressed Lucius with his cane in. Sirius snorted at his appearance.
"Malfoy, with dressing like that... are you sure you are able to play Hide and Seek? More like you are ready for a wedding."
"I suggest Black that you shut you mouth." Lucius hook his cane onto the back of a chair, took off his cloak and robes, revealing a pair of dark green turtleneck and dark gray trousers and black shoes. Sirius went wide eyed at the appearance.
"Once a Slytherin, always a Slytherin eh Lucius?" Minerva chuckled. Lucius turn to her and smirk, tying his hair up into a tail.
"I thought I told Draco to inform you I might be slightly late..."
"He did. You can just join them right now. Summary of the rules, No wands allowed for cheating and Hide. Just Hide." Aberforth said.
"Remember Lucius; use that Slytherin slyness in this game... Have fun! ⌠Dumbledore raised his cup at him as a toast.
Lucius nodded and walk off, stopping by the board. His shoulder shook a little before he walks off.
"Trust Black to be seeked by Tonks first..." He voice trailed off loudly as he walks off. Sirius frown as the others chuckle.
"Well she is a..." Sirius trailed when he saw Remus giving him dark looks, "... very bright and focused girl. I am proud of her, my niece." Sirius smile.

Okay, after this, the flow will get stuck alittle because am having a writer's block... heh...
Chapter 3 : Severus, Bill and the Twinkles...
Wherever there is Darkness, there is Severus Snape. He hates being out in the sun. Makes him all uncomfortable in his so many layers of black clothing. And he hates how it makes people all cheerful and even more irritating than before. That is why you will never get to catch a glimpse of him at Breakfast in Hogwarts. He couldn't bear all those inane chattering and laughter around him. Even the teachers were acting as school kids, chattering about their new plants or which one of their cousins just got married again and had a baby...
Screaming across him, telling the other how their new broom is or how the moon shines so brightly yesterday. Seriously, the only person who could describe a broom as detailed as like it was an orgasm to a woman... it would be Hooch.
How he hated that outrageously, big mouth of hers. Some times he wished he could just hex her to next year so that he could have peace and quiet around him. And another thing that he hates is the brightly induced colors all around him. For one minute you would have thought that Lockhart was in charge of the colors. Those pink and yellow and all those that are associated to the category of 'Bluek!'-ness... How he wished he was color blind. And just the thought of being in the light...
Oh how he hated brightly lit places... The funny thing about it is though he hated the light, He was in the Light. He remembered people thanking him, congratulating him for being all along with the Light and he would retort harshly in his thought, "I hate lights, shut up and move along you twerp."
And so, thus to all the hateness he has towards the light and to colors... Severus Snape could be found in the basement, strolling silently and quietly as if he was patrolling the corridors at night. He didn't care if someone would find him, he just wishes to finish this whole insane idea up and go back home to his comfortable bed... with Hermione by his side of course.
Oh he loves her... but he will never admit that in public though. It was enough admittance during his wedding when Fred and George spiked the drinks with Veritaserum. Oh how the people thought it would be fun when they found out. And how fun it would be if he found Fred and George here somewhere... He could take his revenge.
Severus Snape was strolling on, pondering whether he should go on to the first level when he heard footsteps going down the stairs. He quickly blended himself in a dark pathway and scans his eyes for the intruder. He can't be walking in front of a Seeker or else he would be caught. Even though he did not wished to participate and wished to go home, Hermione had him promise her that he would never be caught for at least thirty minutes after the game commences or he will get hell at home... and a few weeks sleeping on the sofa.
As he try to find out who it was that was walking down the pathway, he saw a silhouette from afar. He smirks. That was not one of the Seekers... so it must be one of the Hiders. Maybe its Fred or George? Severus got himself ready to take a plunge towards the shadow but as it closes in, He realizes that the shadow had long hair... Long, platinum hair...
"Lucius?"
Lucius whirled with his wand in hand towards Severus.
"Severus?"
"What are you doing here?" Severus asks.
"What are you doing here?" Lucius asks back. Severus raised an eyebrow.
"Dancing my heated bonbons to the cha-cha... And you?" He replied, sarcastically.
"Looking for Bellatrix, wearing a bikini..." Lucius retorted with the same amount of sarcasm. Severus made a face.
"That is revolting..."
"It is..."
Severus sighs out. Lucius and he are almost the same. They are stubborn, hard headed morons who have different hairstyles...
"I'm here for the game... Don't tell me you're playing too?" He sneers at the word 'playing'.
Lucius eyes went wide.
"Are you a Seeker?"
"No... I'm a Hider."
"Who are the Seekers?"
"Bill Weasley, Nymphadora Tonks and The-Boy-Who-Lived-To-Ruin-My-Days..." Severus drawled lazily.
"Potter?" Lucius sneers.
"Yes... Oh and by the way, I called dibs on this floor..." Severus smirks. Even though they were adults, sometimes they tend to go back into their childhood days language.
"Oh pish!... Fine then, I'll go on to another level." Lucius frowns and walks off.
"Try going on to the third level and find the nearest room..." Severus called after him. Lucius stops walking and turn to regard Severus.
"What makes you say that?"
"Basic instinct... and experience." Severus shrugs.
Lucius shook his head and went off. Severus then decided he should stay on down here, just in case.
H I D E A N D S E E K H I D E A N D S E E K H I D E A N D S E E K H I D E A N D S E E K H I D E A N D S E E K H I D E A N D S E E K
Draco quickly ran around the first floor, trying to find a place to hide when he saw a small little closet from afar. He smirks and ran towards it. He grabs the door handle and realizes that it's not locked.
"Yes! I just hope no one finds me here..."
He goes in and found himself amidst brooms and soap.
"A broom closet? Why does Dumbledore need such a thing?" He shook his head and sat down on the floor. He kept on hoping that no one finds him there, and that he will be the last person standing to win the prize.
Outside, on the door... was a faded writing...
"Door Opens One Way Only..."
H I D E A N D S E E K H I D E A N D S E E K H I D E A N D S E E K H I D E A N D S E E K H I D E A N D S E E K H I D E A N D S E E K
Fred and George scattered about in the room they had managed to find empty and knelt down behind a few boxes. They sniggered and took out most of their stuffs they had created and place them on the floor.
"Go put these at the door, Fred..." George handed out the Extendable Ears and Eyes to Fred and watches him run off to the door. Fred slowly pull the door back open, place the Extendable Ears and Eyes onto the top of the door, charm it invisible and close it back. Fred then pattered back to George and knelt down beside him. George took out a small box with a toggle in between that fits his palm and tap it once with his wand. At once the box was filled with images of the walkway outside. He toggled it left and right, seeing the walkway through it. Oh how he thanks Muggles for their clever but inane creations of the MareCa!... or Carema... or whatever it was they called it.
"Now what?" Fred asks.
"We wait here and see what happens outside. If someone comes near our door, we charm this place to look empty."
"But George... Dumbledore said..."
"Dumbledore said No cheating... He didn't say 'No charming of the place to make it look empty...' now did he?" George grins.
Fred looks at his twin and grins back.
"George... you are a genius!"
H I D E A N D S E E K H I D E A N D S E E K H I D E A N D S E E K H I D E A N D S E E K H I D E A N D S E E K H I D E A N D S E E K
Bill went on looking through the rooms and decided to go on to the second floor again. He made a mental note of not going into the same room with the everlasting drop again and proceeded to the second door. He opens it and peers inside. He saw Luna, standing in the middle of the black room, looking at him with her usual dreamy gaze.
"Luna? Is that you?" Bill asks.
"Yes..." Luna nods.
Bill controlled his urge to laugh and went in the door.
"Okay then... You have to follow me now. So come on then, let's go..." Bill said, handing out a hand to her. Luna nods again, the look never disappearing from her face, and put two hands up for cuffing.
A long, blue colored string escapes from Bills hands and tied itself onto Luna. As Bill was about to walk away, he heard Luna say.
"The Twinkles are just above your head, you know..."
Bill frowns in confusion.
"The what?"
"Twinkles..." Luna said.
"... Twinkles..." Bill repeated.
"Yes... up there..." Luna pointed above his head. Bill slowly look up and saw a few, brightly lit things flying just above his head. To Bill, It would have been fireflies if it wasn't big like a ping pong ball. He tilted his head aside, blowing onto the flying things. It rises up then falls back to their usual place. He did it again, and again they did the same. Lastly... Bill blew with all his might and the flying things scattered all over the place.
"I wouldn't do that if I were you..." Luna said...
"Why not?" Bill asks.
Suddenly, Bill felt as if he was on fire. He looks down to see the Twinkles flying all over him. He tried to shoo them off but they went on flying all over him again. Bill quickly took out his wand, ran towards Luna, turns and pointed his wand at the Twinkles.
"Immobilus!!"
... only to find nothing in front of him. He tilts his head in confusement. He swore they were flying towards him... but where are they now? Luna tugs on his sleeve, causing him to look down. Luna pointed up above them and Bill followed, looking up.
The Twinkles were over them... waiting. Bill slowly look down and grab Luna by the hand.
"On the count of three... we run out, Okay?"
Luna nods again.
"One... two... THREE!!" Bill quickly tugs Luna with him and ran towards the door. The Twinkles chased after them, a strange whirling sound around them.
"Quickly, Luna!" Bill shouted.
Luna ran as fast as she could and nods again.
As soon as Bill hit to floor on the corridor walkway and Luna ran past by him, Bill slam the door closed and slump on it, heavily breathing. Luna was behind him, panting too but with a smile on her face.
"That was fun..." she said.
"I hate this game more and more..." Bill said.

Ron was about to go down the staircase towards the second floor slowly when he heard the slam of door and both Luna and Bill's voices, causing him to go back upstairs and ran towards an empty room. _________________ Slytherin.

Achieve approval and points from Severus Snape.
The part with Bill and Luna was great. You captured Luna's personality.
Snape and Hermione, huh? Ick. Poor Ronald.
I hope you come out of your writer's block because what you have been writing is great comedy. _________________
