A/N: Hey guys this is my first fic so no hate ok? But I do like constructive criticism, so review if there is anything wrong. Characters: Harry Potter, Hermione Granger, Ron Weasley, Ginny Weasley, Neville Longbottom, Lavender Brown, Blaise Zabini, Luna Lovegood, Fred Weasley, Angelina Johnson, George Weasley, Katie Bell, Theodore Nott, Hannah Abbott, Draco Malfoy, Pansy Parkinson
**Fred never died in my story, I would never be able to do that. Neither did Sirius or Snape, and Lavender has scars now, but she didn't die. The other deaths are canon.
**Luna and Ginny are 8th years because they were smart enough to get bumped up a grade. Fred and George came back because their mom made them, and Katie and Angelina returned so their boyfriends wouldn't be alone.
"Dammit! Why won't this fucking door open?"
"Oh, Granger, language! Don't want anyone to this you're anything but a prude now do you?"
"Shut up Malfoy! I don't see you trying to get us out of here!"
Hermione Granger was livid. It was the first Saturday of school and all of the returning eighth years were told by Headmistress McGonagall to go to the Room of Requirement. Once they had all entered the door slammed shut. That was an hour ago, at one in the afternoon. Hermione had used every spell she knew to try and open the door, but it didn't budge.
"Hey guys," Ron shouted from across the room, "Get over here. McGonagall left a note!"
Everyone crowed around him to see the note. It read:
Thank you all for coming this morning. I am sure you would like to know why you are here. You have Dumbledore to thank for that, this was all his idea. He believes that if you all spend some time bonding with each other, you will get along better.
The door will be locked until you have finished the instructions included. Don't worry about not having what you need, the room will provide it for you, and I will have the elves send some food up at meal times. As it is Saturday, the instructions should be able to be completed by Sunday night. You will not miss any classes.
Instructions: You must play all of the following games. I trust you will know all the rules and play fairly and appropriately. Have fun!
Truth or Dare (everyone gets asked at least once)
Never Have I Ever (once around the circle)
2 Truths 1 Lie (one turn each)
Kiss/Marry/Kill (at least one for each person)
Paranoid (twice around the circle)
"Marvelous," remarked Blaise Zabini dryly. "Let's get started shall we?"
As he spoke, a circular fluffy hot pink rug appeared in the middle of the room. Blaise rolled his eyes and remarked, "Can it be any girlier?" In response, the rug became sparkly. Everyone laughed, and it finally changed to a plain white fluffy rug. They all gathered on the rug and sat cross-legged. Everyone sat boy-girl-boy-girl to give the circle some balance.
"Does everyone know how to play Truth or Dare?" Ginny asked. All the girls nodded the affirmative, as well as Fred and George, but the rest looked confused.
"How the hell do you two know what this is when the rest of us don't?" Harry questioned.
"Well Harry, you poor naïve little boy, we—" George began.
"—are professional pranksters." Fred said, finishing George's sentence for him.
"And as such—"
"—we make it a point to know—"
"—all the games that are prime time for pranks—"
"—such as this one," they finished together.
"Basically," Lavender cut in, "everyone takes turns picking a person and asking them 'truth or dare'. Whichever the person picks, the asker has to think of a question for the person to answer truthfully or a dare for the person to execute. But the muggle version is based off trust that the answer are truthful. In the magic version, we use veritaserum to know for sure that the truth is the truth, and before answering a truth you take a tiny sip; just enough to last one question."
Suddenly, a bottle of veritaserum appeared in the center of the rug, as though it could hear Lavender's thoughts.
"So," Ginny clapped her hands suddenly, startling the circle of people, "who wants to start?"
