gang prank ও🦌

WHEN A RAVENCLAW SEEKS REVENGE and a Slytherin concocts a scheme, that is a perilous combination indeed. Following the aftermath of the dungbombing incident, the duo's thirst for revenge had only intensified.

Though Elliot was taken aback at first, being abruptly pulled away from the Slytherin table during dinner, he quickly got on board and listened intently to the plans the girls had hatched for their revenge. 

As the Ravenclaw and Slytherin trio devised a meticulous scheme together, the plan of action taking shape with Elliot's help, they were determined to ensure that the Gryffindors would regret their actions and never again even consider crossing them. The revenge of this perilous mix is sure to pack a powerful punch, teaching the boys a lesson they won't soon forget.

"We're not out to seriously harm them," Autumn explained, her eyes scanning through the pages of a book that could potentially inspire their revenge plans.

"But a little bit of pain wouldn't be a bad idea..." Raven muttered, her lips curved into a sly smirk, hinting that she wasn't completely against resorting to physical force if necessity called for it.

Autumn shot her friend a firm gaze, her voice resolute, "Not a chance, Rave. Unless they actually harm us with their pranks, I won't step in harmful pranks."

Elliot, who was lying on the floor, grumbling about his hunger, raised his head and commented, "The fact that you two fell for something as trivial as a dung bomb makes me wonder if you even have the capacity to get back at them."

"Don't underestimate Ravenclaws, Eli," the girls replied in unison, their tone leaving no room for argument.

Elliot grumbled, rolling on the floor before sitting up to speak again. "So, what's the plan?" he inquired, his tone dripping with annoyance and boredom. "Are we going for something flashy with an audience, or do we want something more secretive?"

"It does seem appropriate if we're going for something stealthy," Autumn agreed, putting the book aside on the table. "We'll get revenge in a way that mirrors their actions."

Raven made a disgusted face at the thought of being on constant lookout for the Gryffindors.

Elliot chuckled, egging the girls on to start the battle. "Come on, girls, lets make this year unforgettable by initiating war with the Golden Boys from Gryffindor."

"Are we seriously considering instigating a full-blown war?" Raven exclaimed in disbelief, her tone filled with disbelief and irritation. "It's utterly ridiculous!"

"But it could be quite entertaining," Elliot countered with a cheeky smile, seemingly unbothered by the potential consequences of his suggested actions.

"Your sense of entertainment is completely off the charts," Raven shot back at Elliot, her expression and tone clearly expressing her disapproval of the idea of going to war with the Gryffindors.

"It would be extraordinary though," Elliot reiterated with the same playful demeanor and mischievous smile, "and let's be honest, doesn't the entire school love a good dose of drama? Or are you two the exceptions who don't enjoy entertaining scenarios?"

Raven and Autumn stayed firm in their stance that they shouldn't provoke a full-fledged war.

"It could be entertaining, I suppose," Raven conceded, but her tone was still skeptical. "But it would likely cause more problems than it's worth."

Elliot's smile faltered slightly at their reluctance to participate in the amusement. "Why the doubt?" he inquired, his tone already knowing the answer. "Isn't drama enthralling? Isn't witnessing Gryffindor's defeat, at least once, entertaining?"

The final question was the deciding factor for both girls. The thought of the consistently victorious Gryffindor house finally tasting defeat was a truly enticing prospect, one that held an irresistible charm for both girls' mischievous natures.

"There it is, my girls!" Elliot exclaimed, noticing the growing interest in his proposal as both Autumn and Raven's faces lightened. "To make it even more impactful, we're targeting individuals who are renowned for their pranking abilities! Just envision winning in such a remarkable way by beating them at their own game."

"You actually have a point," declared Autumn with a cunning grin. "I mean, what better way to get even with a couple of notorious pranksters than to embarrass them at their own game?"

"This does sound intriguing," added Raven, her smile broadening as she spoke, "I have to admit, your proposal has me completely captivated, and I would relish the opportunity to witness the Golden Boys getting a taste of their own medicine. I'm in."

Elliot then feigned wiping away a tear, his face exhibiting a totally overblown expression of pride. "I'm so proud of you two," he chimed, his tone dripping with sarcasm and playful mischievousness.

The three friends later engaged in a thorough discussion and ultimately agreed to go ahead with Elliot's plan. The four Golden boys from Gryffindor were about to discover that they had seriously underestimated the mischief and cunningness of the dangerous Ravenclaw-Slytherin trio.

THE TRIO EXERCISED PATIENCE, waiting for nearly a week as they meticulously crafted their plan. They were determined to ensure their plan for revenge would go without a hitch and that they would be able to exact a fitting retribution, one that would teach the Golden Boys an unforgettable lesson about the repercussions of playing such tricks.

The trio's patience had been well worth the wait, as they had successfully completed the formulation of their meticulously crafted master plan, which was specifically designed to punish the Golden Boys of Gryffindor for their mischievous actions. They were now fully prepared to enforce their vengeance and make the four boys regret their decision to pull such a dungbomb-themed prank.

The long-awaited day had finally arrived, and the trio had applied the final flourishes to their plan. Over the course of the past week, they had diligently observed the morning routine of the four Golden Boys from Gryffindor, enabling them to construct the perfect strategy for carrying out their reprisal.

"Do you think they go to the restroom together?" Raven posed the question to Autumn, confident that her muggle-born Ravenclaw companion would comprehend the reference.

"It wouldn't surprise me if they did," Autumn responded to Raven's comment, fully grasping the underlying meaning. Elliot, on the other hand, appeared confused as he wasn't well-versed in muggle expressions and culture, his only interest extending to keeping up with trends and fashion.

Elliot turned his gaze between the two girls, his expression displaying his own bewilderment. "Huh?" he echoed, entirely clueless as to the underlying implication of Raven's question.

"We'll explain it later," Raven reassured him, sensing his confusion. "There's a whole lot to teach you," she added, finding his ignorance of muggle terms and expressions strangely delightful. However, Elliot's face reflected uncertainty, suggesting he wasn't sure if he was ready for the lessons the girls had planned for him.

"Poor Eli," Autumn commented, playfully ruffling his hair with a grin, as if he was entirely clueless about the many strange customs of the Muggles. "If our parents took part in enlightening you, you might desperately wish to erase your memories or enter a never-ending vortex of bewilderment about the odd behaviors of the Muggles."

Elliot chuckled in response to her words, "I bet my family would be absolutely thrilled." The girls couldn't help but let out a soft giggle at both his remark and the image he painted.

"I'm positive they would be," Raven teased further, still smiling as she visualized the potential response of Elliot's family to such a notion.

"I can imagine their reactions would be quite amusing to witness," Autumn continued, her own laugh filling the air, "particularly when they uncover the stark contrasts between the customs and lifestyles of magical and muggle worlds."

"My father finds the muggle way of life utterly fascinating," Elliot elaborated, slipping into a deeper, mocking imitation of his father's voice. "Oh, my son, have a look at this peculiar contraption! It's so cumbersome, it makes me yearn to use it."

Elliot then chuckled, reverting to his natural voice, "You know, I'm pretty certain he's more of a muggle than a wizard at this point. And my mum, well, she'd turn into a downright ordeal if she dabbled in muggle trends."

Elliot's impersonation of his father's voice and his choice of words were spot on, evoking the exact manner in which the male would likely react. This prompted both Raven and Autumn to find the image of his transformation into a muggle-like manner utterly humorous.

Autumn couldn't help but notice the lighthearted and amusing way in which the imitation seemed to poke fun at the concept of his father wishing to adapt his lifestyle to be more muggle-like. The girls' minds filled with the scene, and they found themselves unable to suppress small bursts of laughter.

The trio promptly halted their lighthearted exchange and hastily concealed themselves behind a pillar, pressing their bodies firmly against each other to ensure a discreet and inconspicuous pose. Despite the amusing appearance of their position, all three were solely concentrated on the impending prank and the results it would yield. With stealthy movements, they pecked around the pillar and carefully observed the Gryffindor boys' movements, silently waiting for the moment to come when the joke would be unleashed.

Despite maintaining their silence, the trio's anxiety was heightened as their eyes remained fixed on the four Gryffindor boys. Raven was quietly muttering a prayer for a successful outcome, while Autumn's nervousness was growing palpably with each moment that the opportunity to execute the prank drew closer. Meanwhile, Elliot was exerting considerable effort to suppress his excitement as he eagerly waited for the prank to transpire.

The four Gryffindor boys were caught completely unaware by the unexpected eruption of colorful pigments and smoke that engulfed them. A rainbow of hues blanketed the entire atmosphere and their surprised exclamations and gasps resounded through the hallway. As the smoke began to fade, the prank's impact became evident as the boys' appearances had been entirely altered, leaving them dumbfounded and astounded.

James was the first of the boys to become visible as the smoke started to thin, revealing his completely altered appearance. His previously dark locks had now transformed into a light blonde shade, and his robes were replaced by a white long-sleeved sweater, with an orange neckerchief that starkly contrasted the blue pants and undershirt he now wore.

Peter emerged next from the fading smoke cloud, his appearance completely changed. His outfit was totally different, sporting an oversized orange turtleneck sweater, red shorts, and socks that matched the hue of the sweater. Furthermore, his once light locks had been replaced by a dark brunette color, and his look was topped with black square-frame glasses, further adding to his distinct appearance.

Remus appeared third as the smoke continued to clear, and his transformation was not as dramatic and distinct as the other Gryffindor boys'. His previously sandy brown hair had slightly altered to a more muted shade, and he now wore a baggy green v-neck t-shirt paired with loose maroon bell-bottom trousers. His attire was the most subtle change when compared to the others.

Sirius was the final Gryffindor boy to emerge from the dissipating smoke, and his transformation was the most striking of them all. His facial features were relatively similar, barring the longer hair that now perfectly mimicked Autumn's own shade. However, his robes were completely distinct and utterly different to the others. He wore a short long-sleeved purple dress, featuring a silky lace hem and cuffs, topped with an added mauve hoop below the waist. This new style added a touch of femininity to his appearance, making the sight both unexpected and amusing.

When Raven observed Sirius sporting a feminine dress, her disbelief was clearly evident. It was one thing to see the boys' outfits transformed to something so radically different, but it was a whole other thing to witness Sirius in a dress.

"By Merlin's name, why does he look so damn good in that outfit?" she cursed under her breath, her amusement and bewilderment blending together.

Viewing the four thoroughly transformed Gryffindor boys was truly hilarious. Although the trio had intended them to change drastically, the actuality of the transformation exceeded even their own expectations. The final outcome was far more absurd than they had imagined.

Witnessing Sirius in a dress was the perfect finale, the ultimate punchline. Elliot couldn't restrain himself, erupting into a fit of laughter, all thoughts of stealth and discretion utterly dissolved.

As the trio nonchalantly stepped out from behind their concealing spot, their expressions mirrored one another, sporting a smug and cheeky look, clearly reveling in the success of their prank.

Remus was the first to recognize the characters from which the boys' transformation had been based. The four Gryffindor boys were entirely bewildered, their expressions a mix of slight annoyance and bewilderment, with a hint of amusement playing across their faces.

Peter was the next in line and appeared to be the most uncomfortable. While he was fortunate that his attire had been gender-bent, sparing him from wearing a short skirt and instead providing him with shorts, the outfit was not to his liking. He expressed his discontent by picking at the orange sweater and grumbling.

Sirius took a moment to adjust to his outfit, which stood out as the only one that was a dress. Initially, he found the dress aesthetically pleasing but then his expression changed as a sudden realization about the breeze he felt between his legs washed over him. Instantly, he reconsidered his opinion.

James was not pleased with the prank, now having to deal with blond hair, which he firmly believed was inferior to his natural hair color. In a frustrated manner, he tugged at his golden locks, his frown clearly displaying his annoyance.

"A dung bomb prank and this is how you retaliate?" he questioned with an irked tone, his accusations directed at the trio.

Autumn provided an explanation for why she and Raven had resorted to such drastic measures, detailing how the lingering effects of the dung bomb had caused significant problems and forced them to seek refuge elsewhere. In her view, the transformation of the Gryffindor boys beyond recognition was the ultimate act of stylish retribution, and she declared the end result a resounding success.

"The stench was practically impossible to get rid of," she stated, grimacing as she recollected the memory. "It was so terrible that our roommates practically evicted us from our dorm," she mentioned, highlighting the extent of the trouble it had caused.

Raven nodded in agreement and gave further justification for their act, emphasizing her disappointment over her meal consumption being disrupted. Not only had the dungbomb made it difficult for her to eat due to the unpleasant smell, but it had also prevented her from eating a single bite all day.

"I couldn't even eat that whole day, and when you mess with me and my food, you will be held accountable," she asserted, her arms crossed firmly behind her back, her stance unwavering.

The boys' attention shifted to the Slytherin male, noting that he was inexplicably unharmed by the aftermath of the prank. They wondered about his role in the situation, seeing as he hadn't been affected at all, and contemplated why he was included in the entire prank.

Elliot did not hesitate to stand by his female companions in their quest for retribution, as the Gryffindor boys had first pranked them with the dungbomb. He framed the situation as a war, pitting himself and his three friends against the four Gryffindor males. His smirk was brazen and his challenge clear, as he was poised to fight until the end.

"You got my girls, so of course, I'll join in," he said confidently. "But I also want to engage in a head-to-head prank war with you guys."

Sirius was intrigued by the concept proposed by Elliot, finding the idea of challenging each other and engaging in a prank war amusing. His smirk reflected the Slytherin male's attitude, as he found the proposal to be rather brilliant.

"Huh, so you desire a challenge?" he echoed, "OH, that is absolutely fantastic."

Raven was resolute in maintaining a fair contest, asserting that she had no interest in anyone being injured during their prank war. She insisted that everyone remain safe and have fun throughout the challenge they were about to undertake.

"We'll play this fair," she declared with a firm tone. "Nothing can be done that has the potential to harm the other party," she asserted, setting the ground rule for the competition they were about to embark upon.

The boys were in complete agreement with the rule that Raven had established, understanding her concern for the safety of all involved. They were amenable to upholding the rule she had introduced for the prank war, prioritizing the welfare of all participants.

The Gryffindor boys accepted the terms set by Raven, fully committed to an equitable challenge that would prevent any injuries. They were up for the prank war and had agreed that no action would lead to bodily harm for their adversaries.

"We're in," Peter voiced, and the others nodded in agreement, making their position clear on the matter.

"Let the prank war begin," James stated firmly, looking forward to the challenge that lay ahead.
