"Hey, let's make pancakes!" said Ron as they sat inside the library, surrounded by books.

"What? Why?" Harry asked as Hermione eyed the red-head sternly.

"We need to make pancakes!" Ron repeated.

Harry and Hermione shared a look.

"Ron, why would we want to make pancakes? We're studying for our OWLS, we don't have time for pancakes," said Hermione.

"Besides, we never actually cook at Hogwarts. House-elves do it for us, remember?" Harry asked.

"WHAT?" Ron shouted. "We need to make pancakes, now!"

"But why?"

"We need to… we need to make pancakes! That's the only way!"

"Ron, what are you talking about? Please, explain!" Hermione said, her voice filled with concern. There was something wrong with Ron.

"They're making me do this… they want us to cook!" Ron shouted, his eyes unfocused.

"Who? Who are they?" Hermione asked.

"The judges! Admins of the competition!"

"What competition? Ron, you're babbling nonsense," said Harry. Was Ron drunk?

"We need to cook! Otherwise, we'll be deleted! Please, let's just make those stupid pancakes!"

Hermione eyed Harry and nodded.

"Okay, okay, calm down…" she said quietly, trying to soothe Ron. "Harry, use that spell for summoning pancakes!"

Harry nodded and pulled out his wand. He waved it in a circular pattern and whispered, "Pancakeus Summonum from the Realm Demonum!"

And with a loud thump, six hundred and sixty-six massive pancakes appeared in the Hogwarts Library, destroying the bookshelves and smashing some of the students.

"Harry, why did you summon pancakes from the demon realm?" Hermione screamed, her voice muffled by the giant pancake on top of her.

Harry winced. "Well, I figured that stealing pancakes from demons would make us the good guys, right?"

"Hell yeah!" Ron screamed as he started to devour a giant pancake.
