Chapter Twenty-One: Greeks Hate Gilderoy Lockhart

"Sorry about that," Harry says. "We'll make sure to fix that later."

He tapped a few things on his screen. He tilted his screen and two holograms soon appeared over his mirror phone. It was the heads, and part of the shoulders, of his twin siblings.

"Weasley getting yelled at by Percy," Melody immediately guessed, a smile on her face.

"Yep," Harry said.

"Some people are just stupid," Krinos says.

"Sit back and enjoy the show, brother and sister of mine," Harry leaned back in his own chair.

He faced his mirror phone toward the scolding Ravenclaw, the scene appearing as a holographic television screen to the twins.

"If the platform was closed, how would mum and dad have gotten back to help me," Ron tried to defend himself.

"The platform may be able to close from your side, but it doesn't work like that for both ways," Percy told his brother.

"How was I supposed to know that," Ron yelled at him.

"Common sense," Fred and George responded, shrugging.

"Like you two wouldn't have done the same thing," Ron glared at his prankster twin brothers.

"Not even we," Fred started.

"Would be that dumb," George says.

"Dad doesn't have enough," Fred said.

"Respect at work," George continued.

"As it is," Fred says.

"This is the last thing we'd ever do," they finished together.

"Their twin speak is a lot worse than ours," Krinos stated, Melody nodding in agreement.

"You were seen by over a dozen muggle when you took the car," Percy yelled at Ron. "Do you have any idea how serious breaking the Statute of Secrecy is! You could be sent to Azkaban. DAD could be sent to Azkaban! All because of your reckless stupidity."

"As if you can talk about what something can do to our family after what you did," Ron threw at Percy.

"And what have I done," Percy's glare intensified.

"You turned your back on being a Weasley the moment you let yourself be sorted into the house of know-it-all bookworms," Ron sneered. "The first Weasley to be sorted anywhere other than Gryffindor in two-hundred years."

"I feel like I should be insulted," Melody said.

"Pretty sure that he just insulted the whole of Ravenclaw," Krinos says.

"I would so have screamed his ears off by now if we hadn't been trying to keep out kind's existence a secret," Melody grumbled.

Thankfully, Neville didn't hear her other than some faint mumbling.

"I have gone over this more times than I can count," Percy looked ready to strangle his little brother. "Being sorted into a house other than Gryffindor does not mean that I dishonored the family. Thing like what you just did are why the other purebloods make fun of the Weasley family. And if you hadn't noticed, dad has no problem with me being a Ravenclaw."

"Dad has never cared about how we look," Ron sneered. "Mum was right when she said that you should be resorted. You can't be a Weasley if you aren't a Gryffindor."
