Harrison was heading back to the Dungeons, unaware of two redheaded twins, both similar in height, following behind him. He was just exhausted from over exerting his magical power that he didn't notice two pairs of footsteps following him until he was halfway through the dungeons, when he felt like someone was following him.
He looked behind, his wand pointed out, his green eyes glowed dangerously as the redheaded twins made no means to hide. They simply stood there behind him with smiles on their faces, the freckles all across their face more noticeable in the dim lighting.
Harrison stiffened; he heard the rumours of the infamous twins. They were notorious for playing pranks on people, no matter what house they were in. He was pretty sure Draco had been on the receiving end, when one day he came into the dormitory with pink hair that wouldn't go away, no matter what the pale blonde did. He also knew that the-boy-who-lived was also on the receiving side, so was the blood-traitor: their own brother.
No one was safe, but what was interesting was the fact that he was never on the receiving end of the twins' pranks. Instead, when he came across them, they just avoided him as if they knew what he was capable of.
Now that he was looking at them, they were poised differently than the other blood traitors. They stood proudly, with their crisp, clean uniform that looked brand new, and fit them properly. But what was interesting was their aura; it was dark rather than light like the rest of their families.
"Now what would two lions be in the snakes' den?" Harrison asked, watching their every move.
The twins looked at each other before one of them spoke,
"A little birdie told us that you hold resentment towards Saeviour and his little friends, including our little brother… " One of the twins started.
Harrison stiffened, expecting the worst coming from the twins, but what they said next surprised him.
"We can't stand them, and come to you with a proposition we have for you," One of the twins explained.
Harrison cocked his head to the side, his thoughts swirling. A proposition for him? Every inch of his body screamed danger and didn't trust them, but he couldn't help but hear them out. After all, the twins never seeked him out before and their auras were different from their families and brothers.
"What kind of proposition?" Harrison asked.
"Meet us on the seventh floor next to the tapestry with Barnabas the Barmy teaching trolls ballet on Wednesday night, after supper," The twins said in unison, before they walked away leaving Harrison in the wake, thinking about what the twins just told him.
…
Harrison headed up to the seventh floor right after supper on Wednesday night. He spotted the redheaded twins standing right next to the tapestry with Barnabas the Barmy teaching trolls ballet.
All of a sudden, one of the twins started pacing around the corridor, back and forth three times, until a door appeared- a door that didn't exist before. Harrison refrained his curiosity from showing as he was invited in, taking in what the room had to offer.
There were a couple of black armchairs facing one another, with the fire blazing in the background. The room was in dark colors, making him feel at ease as he stepped forth and sat in one of the armchairs with Fred and George taking the rest of the chairs.
"Where are we?" Harrison questioned, gazing around the room- taking in every inch of detail that he could.
"My Fred, the little snake is surprised-"
"That he hasn't discovered one of Hogwarts secrets-"
"The Room of Requirement!" Both of the twins said together.
Harrison rolled his eyes, finishing each other's sentences, talking in unison was starting to get really annoying. He was willing to sacrifice his patience, if it meant listening to the twins' insane rambles and finishing one another's sentences, just to get the proposition out of them.
"What proposition?" He asked, getting straight to the point.
"For starters-we've noticed from a little object that's very dear to us-"
"That you've been the girls' loo on the second floor, disappear and come back hours later… So where have you been going?"
"Nothing that concerns you," Harrison snapped, feeling frustrated as this conversation was getting nowhere and the twins were just stalling.
Both of the twins looked at each other before either Fred or George said,
"The little snake's is very secretive, more than Dumbledore and his little schemes."
That caught his attention. Dumbledore was a scheming bastard, who was a master at manipulation, and all of the sudden these twins- masters of pranking, may have gathered some secrets around Dumbledore.
The prosperity of these thoughts excited him and he asked,
"What do you know about Dumbledore?"
The twins looked at each other before one of them before one of them said,
"Tell us where you've been going first."
