The Astronomy tower had always been a wonderful site and Hallie can not help but love the really cool view that one will only be able to see when one is standing there. Thoughts on going to the towers at the middle of the night started to come to her. Really, she loved the Hufflepuff dungeons but sometimes she felt like trapped in a prison. Merlin knows how hot the Dungeons could be. It is, after all, made by stone and under the ground. Hallie shrugged and got up. Her wrist watch read 12:45 am as she slipped on her slippers.
The corridors really were clear of people. She saw some students who were sneaking out just like her and smiled at them. On the way, she thought of the Tower... maybe she would someone there... probably someone who could not sleep just like her self. She dragged herself up to the entrance hall and passed by the reall high and small staircase there that led to the Astronomy tower.
Before she knew it, she was already there. The stars were twinkling and the moon was full again. The Hufflepuff admired the moon so much, especially when it was full. The girl unconciously busied herself as she looking at the sky and thinking of loads of things of all sorts. She even did not noticed another presence when it came in the premises.

Annie could not get to sleep. She was having one of her nightmares again. Stupid things, she thought to herself. It was bad enough that they were happening during the night. Now she having nightmares during the day? What was wrong with her?
Annie shook her head as she walked in the towers. She loved the stary sky. It gave her a chance to calm down after such a hetic day. Or night in her case. She smiled as she saw her sister. Maybe she should scare her. The thought made her grin as she snuck up behind her.
"Sis!" she said happily, jumping out from behind her.

The head girl of Hogwarts walked around the room of the Gryffindor Common Room, but as usual, sleep wouldn't settle in her mind and allow her to rest, not that she would've had much sleep before she was woken up again by a "Nightmare" or something like that of the war ending in such a horrible way.
Hermione tried everything, reading, singing, couting sheep...even cartwheeling across the floor on the Common Room when a first year came down and got the fright of her life watching all these cartwheeling everywhere, which she was told of by one of the Prefect's the day before, but here was the Head Girl, almost bumping into furniture, and doing tubles & backflips.....Hermione then stopped what she was doing, and told the first yeat to go back to bed, she wouldn't dare say anything back.
Hermione grabbed her jacket and walked out of the Common Room. She couldn't get yelled at, she was positive she was aloud to walk around. She heard patters at the towers steps, so she decided to walk up there.
Sis!" she heard, man that scared the hell out of her.
"Hello? Anyone there?" She yelled up the stairs

Loads of ideas, expected and unexpected, came to her as she stared at the sky. It really was beautiful and the fact that it was clear, meaning free fom thick cloud formations that ever so often cover the stars and the moon those days, was a huge plus to its beauty that night. Hallie smiled at herself as the chilly wind brushed her cheeks.
"Sis!" A greeting so happily said by a very familiar voice scared the living daylights out of her. "Merlin's toenails Annie!" Hallie exclaimed in shock before she started laughing. Her older sister never failed to do that. Annie's scaring-the-hel-out-of-her really had been always effective.
"Hello? Anyone there?" A muffled voice, from somewhere around the staircase, echoed. "Annie," Hallie said, trying to sound serious as she grinned at her sister. One grin which clearly says that if the person approaching is one of the Carrows, they are dead.

Annie cackled evily. "Oh but Hallie you know I love you," she said happily. "And it makes me feel better that I can still scare my little sister." she added proudly. The girl grined evily at her sister's grin. "Yes my dear evil little sister?" she asked, smiling.

"Hello? It's the Head Girl..don't worry" Hermione yelled up there. She continued to walk up the stairs until she got to the door. Hermione pushed it open. "Oh, hey Hallie. And Hallie's sister. How are you both?" Hermione asked kindly, hoping to avoid the question why she hadn't been seeing any of her friends, not even the rest of the "Goldern Trio" like they had been named.
"And Evil little sister? Never thought Hallie as evil, always when that word "Evil" comes up, I normally think of you" Letitia said

"Oh but Hallie you know I love you, And it makes me feel better that I can still scare my little sister." Hallie just smiled at first half and rolled her eyes on the other half. Annie has always been a good sister but she kind shows it in a different way, not that Hana does not like it that way. Like a while ago, startling her to the bones! But still, she's a good sister and a funny one at that!
"Yes my dear evil little sister?" Hallie laughed as her sister did everything almost evilly. "Oh, my goody-two-shoes sister, we are dead." She told her simply, grinning like mad. "Hello? It's the Head Girl..don't worry" Hallie laughed, an act which she do ever so often in her life. The girl just love laughing.
"Oh, hey Hallie. And Hallie's sister. How are you both?" Hermione asked as she entered the premises. "Hiya 'Mione! I'm good! Having a great time with Big sister Annie who loves scaring the heck out of me!" Hallie repleid, she felt quite hyper that night. "How about you? What brought you here?" She inquired, wondering what Hermione was doing up at this time of the night. "And you too big sister? Up to something again, aren't we?" She asked Annie, smirking playfully.
"And Evil little sister? Never thought Hallie as evil, always when that word "Evil" comes up, I normally think of you" She heard Hermione say to her sister and Hallie cracked again. "Ha!" She exclaimed, sticking her tongue out at Annie.

"Well, let me see, I'm okay...but the furniture in the Common Room probably isn't...with all the cartwheels that hit the furniture..I'm surprised it didn't collapse onto the floor....but the again, I didn't want to hurt the furniture...what am I going on about?" Hermione asked herself.
"anyway" Hermione started from the beggining, shaking herself out of it. "I was hoping you wouldn't ask me that" Hermione said. "I'm up here 'cause I couldn't sleep..What about the both of you?" she asked

Annie mock-saluted her little sister "Aye aye captain!" she said happily. She then pretended she was looking for a gun. "I can't seem to find my gun!" she mock wailed. Annie pretended to stomp her feet in anger. "You are right sis. We are dead!" she pretended to sob and wail.
It took her a few moments to calm down with the act. Annie took a deep breath and giggled. "'Mioney!" she yelped, jumping over to her friend and hugging her. "Aw but ya know ya love it," she sang to her sister. "It has been good. Beat up a few guys that tried to kidnapp us right sissy?" she asked. They had been walking-running-together from the park. Annie had always loved to go to the park. A group of big burly guys had crossed their paths and tried to take them both. But Annie had beat them throughly and without magic, which was considerably a surprise for them both. "I am hurt that you think I am up to something," she said in mock shock to her sister. "Annie is a sweet and innocent girl."
She went quiet when Hermione asked why they were up there. "I just needed to get some air," she lied, perking up a bit. Hoping they'll believe her.

Hallie laughed at what her sister said. She really is funny. The next thing she did was look for her gun and when she was not able to find it, she mock wailed, of course. “Oh no! That’s horrible!” Hallie said in a panicky voice, her right hand on her mouth. “How are we supposed to get out of her alive?” She added in a more mock panicky voice. Hallie approached and patted her sister, who was “wailing and sobbing” that moment. “I know sis, I know.” Hallie said sympathetically, shaking her head slightly.
The moment Annie cracked, Hallie cracked too. It took her a while to calm down and she watched as Annie jumped on Hermione. The two are really close, the fact that they are in the same year must be a huge factor on their friendship.
"Aw but ya know ya love it, It has been good. Beat up a few guys that tried to kidnapp us right sissy?" Annie sang and Hallie laughed. “Yeah, poor. Those blokes…. Must have ended up in a muggle hospital without noses!” Hallie laughed. “You were great sis and all I did was…. Ugh… oh yeah! I just stared in aghast!” Hallie exclaimed. “Oh I’m sorry sissy, you know it’s my duty, as the evil sister, to hurt your feelings one in a while.” Hallie said brightly, grinning.
“Cartwheels? You weren’t?” Hallie chuckled. “Poor furniture! I did not know you are a furniture hurter Hermione!” Hallie said dramatically. “Same Hermione and Annie’s got the point, Hufflepuff Dormitories can be suffocating!”

"Yeah I was" Hermione replied to Hallie..." I guess you could say, a little first year now thinks I'm insane...cause I kinda yelled at her for doing a few hours earlier, so now she thinks I'm an "unfair coach" most of the first years say to me...I tell there's a reason....but that was last year when..you know everything was going wrong..alot like this year too I guess" Hermione added.
"And you know the the Ravenclaw in the order of Merlin? Well, she's hosting a party for everyone to join in at..I swear, that girls gonna be gone before the end of this term, expecually how she's in the Dark Mark, and with us...but she's doing a brave thing...and she can tell us everything she said..." Hermione told Hallie. "I'm still not sure whether I'm going to the party, normally all they've got is Ravenclaws there.."

Annie raised her hand as if she was casting a vote. "I agree with whatever Hallie said," she said happily. She was almost jumping up and down again. Her eyes lit up when Hermione had said something about a party. "Hey Hallie, Hermione," she began with an evil smile. "Want to gate crash the party? I can bring afew of my favorite prank objects." she grinned evily at her little sister. "You should know what I meant Hallie. After all I used to do it to you."
Annie titled her head slightly to one side. "I'm not so sure bout that 'Mione," she said, unusally soft-voiced. "I mean once everyone finds out she's going to have to pick a side." and I've defintly seen that happened, she thought but didn't want to say i.

Hallie just beamed at her big sister when she said something about agreeing to her. "When you sar the Ravenclaw Order of Merlin you mean Tesh Parker, right?" She asked Hermione. Well she is quite certain that it is Tesh Hermione is talking about but she just wanted to make sure anyways. As she waited for Hermione's answer, she decided that crashing at a party without notice is not a bad idea at all. "Yeah, very brave of her. I reckon she really is on our side... well that is what I want to believe t least." She told the two.
"Course I know sissy! Annie plus Prank items is equal to a totally CRASHED party! And fun too!" Hal told the two enthusiastically. "But sissy, have you thought this over, poor ravenclaws, they would not know what hit them!" she added dramatically.

Letitia walked up the stairs of the astronomy Tower, her most favourite place of all. It's where she speant all her time, other than the Room of Requirement and the Library, which most said that's where they found her, but it wasn't true, seeing her friends keep getting themselves kicked out, and Letitia normally is the one to get them out of the "detentions" that they find fun. For Ravenclaws, they were extremely wierd...and quite frankly..dumb that way.
Tesh continued to walk up the spirel stairs until she got to her favourite place, the actual tower of the Astronomy Tower.
She put her ear close to the door to check if there were any Slytherins she knew, so she could walk back down, to avoid the one boy that seemed to be VERY attracted to her, Malfoy...Draco Malfoy.
She noticed those voices.
"Uh-Ha got you in the act!" Letitia yelled dramaticly, kicking the door open. Probably, not the smartest thing she could do

Annie cackled as her eyes lite up. She turned to Hermione. "Well 'Mioney?" she asked evily. "Are you in" she had laughed at what her sister had said. "Oh please. Those poor Ravenclaws won't know what hit them." she said, still evily as she cracked her knuckles. "We will attack and run. After all thats my favorite game plan: hit and run!"
The girl gasped and pretended to fall when a ravenclaw had kicked the door open. "I surrender!" she yelped, throwing her hands in the air. She pretended to sob again. "It was all Hallie's fault! She got me into it!" Annie cracked up again. It took her a few deep calming breaths in order for her to calm down.
