FThe boy growled, it was a traumatic experience with his older friends. Well, he shouldn't call them friends. Mainly because he was never going to see them again, and it had a good and bad reason for it. One, the good reason, or the boon, he was at Hogwarts now, and was to make a new friend, well, SOME new friends. Two, the bad, or the bane, he was bullied at his school that he went to in the muggle world.
Freddy, his twin brother, was like him, only a little less intellectual, he is what you call, stupid. He thinks he's a big shot, and honestly it might run in the Stevenson family, or perhaps the boys were a little wild, and too imaginative. Cody looked up and down, his heart thudded, he was angry, for sure, that memory came back, and he ran, ran harder than he thought he could. Of course, he tripped several times, but he managed to come across a room, that stunk, but what a fantastic spot it seemed to be.
There was no one in there, some of the toilets appeared to be fractured, the sinks seemed to be broken. It was a perfect hideout! Cody immediately scrambled around in his book bag, looking for parchment, and a quill. A few minutes of searching, and he came across a dirty looking piece of parchment, and underwear, well- he didn't need the underwear, so he stuffed it back down into the bag, then put the parchment down on the floor. He slowly wrote in calligraphy, that he learned, a poster that only the elite pranksters could solve. This would lead them to the hiding spot, or their meeting location. Surely a prefect couldn't give them detention then?
The boy completed his poster of the B.O.O.M pranksters. Well, advertising the hideout. He put it up in the corridors, outside the Transfiguration classroom, and even out by the Herbology greenhouse, at greenhouse number two.
Cody grabbed out a few Dungbombs and inserted them along the corners of the door to the abandoned bathroom. The smell has to keep people out! But those who can solve the poster's riddle will also decipher a message.
TRANSLATION:
[font=Century Gothic]This is a bathroom that many people pass by, oh how it stinks! But yet, so do all bathrooms. How does this bathroom differ from the others you may ask? Well, it has been considered... abandoned.
If you find it, then let's meet every Wednesday after classes, and before Dinner. When you successfully read this, I know that you would've found a mirror, and read the text that was reversed. This kind of intelligence is what we need to make up the Bosses Of Organized Mischief club. Just to let you know, what we intend on doing is considered illegal. We are pranking the professors, students, and even staff, just for entertainment, and maybe to blow off some steam. Come see us, every Wednesday! We will have snacks![/font]

Adeline yawned as she trudged through the halls of Hogwarts. It had been a long day full of classes, and it was requiring all of her willpower just to stay awake. Though her parents weren’t fond of her antics, they cared much more deeply about her education, and if Addie so much as received an Exceeds Expectations, or (heaven forbid) an Acceptable, she would surely receive a howler before the day was over. So, whether or not Adeline found a class’s subject matter interesting, she did her utmost to pay attention, and in turn, her parents were much more lenient about her “nonstop tomfoolery,” as they put it.
Suddenly, Addie was pulled from her thoughts as a foul smell entered her nose. The moment she caught a whiff of it, she knew exactly what it was. After all, it hadn’t been long since she’d tossed a dungbomb into the girls’ lavatory. But when she played this prank, she’d had an actual target, and as far as she could tell, this corridor was empty aside from her. Adeline paused for a moment and glanced around. No one in sight.
The Gryffindor shrugged off the smell and kept moving, not wanting to be late to Transfiguration. As she approached the classroom, though, something caught her eye--a piece of paper on the wall with a bunch of nonsense written on it. As she moved closer, she realized it wasn’t gibberish, but some sort of code. Addie pulled her trusty notebook from her pocket and sloppily scribbled down the message, writing as quickly as she could to avoid detection. The moment she had finished, she slammed the notebook closed and ran inside the Transfiguration classroom, barely avoiding tardiness.
Once class had begun, Adeline pulled out her book once more and opened it to the message, having to peel the page apart from the one in front of it where the fresh ink had glued them together. But as she pulled the pages apart, Addie wasn’t nearly as interested in what she had copied down as she was in the bits of ink that had transferred to the other page. There, though still a bit backwards, was a message inviting her to a secret mischief meeting.
“This is a bathroom that many pass by, oh how it stinks!” Addie whispered to herself, a slight grin creeping up on her face. The experience she’d had before class made sense now.
Addie had never been big on working with others for pranking. The more people involved, the more risk of getting caught. That said, only a few nights before, she and Nicky had pulled off a legendary prank together, and had escaped with no issue. It might not hurt to widen her friend circle a bit more. And from the looks of the poster, these were her people. Addie took down one final thing in her notebook--“Abandoned Toilets, Wednesday evening.”
Here's to the movers, the shakers, and the mischief-makers.

B.O.O.M. Meeting
"The etymology for the air heating spell?" Henry spoke reading off of a second year astronomy book as he looked up at Scarlet waiting for a answer with a soft smile.
The teen told the second year that he'll help her study and even quiz her in any class, that day he was quizzing her in astronomy for a test that was coming up. The teen would slightly toward her answer as he looked back at the book, Loki sat on his shoulder as he scanned the page for another question to ask until he would speak" what are the air and water signs of the zodiac?" The blue eye teen would look back up at the girl with a soft smile.
The teen would wait for Scarlet to answer and correct her if he had to before looking over the book and speaking" what is the etymology and wand movement for Lumos Solme?" The teen would look over at Scarlet with a soft smile as he waited for her answer, correcting her if he had to before looking back at the book but couldn't find another question since Scarlet asked him one instead.
"What?" the third year replied looking up to what she found, a poster which the words written backwards. The nerd didn't find it a intelligent way to hide a message but it was creative as he spoke" the words are written backwards, we should be able to read it with a mirror or reflective glass. "
The third year would look for a mirror and then read the poster with Scarlet, raising a eyebrow to the girl as his blue eyes gazed over her and he spoke"intelligence in seeing it was backwards and who even wrote this?" The teen took a step back, Loki sitting on his shoulder watching the two as Henry looked over at Scarlet and spoke" we're going aren't we?"
Henry followed Scarlet to class, after they agreed to go to the meeting together. It didn't take long for them to realize it would be in the abandoned toilets and the meeting would start in the evening. The third year finished quizzing Scarlet for test, wished her luck then went off to his own classes for the day.
The third year would change, Loki on his right shoulder when he met up with Scarlet as he spoke" how was your quiz?" the tern would walk to the abandoned toilets with her, upon entering the teen would look around for anyone else.

Nicky was hopping happily along the corridors of Hogwarts - already thinking about how she and Addie could have so much more fun, she was already juggling ideas in her head. When she was passing the abandoned toilets, she suddenly saw a piece of paper pinned to the wall. She wondered what it was doing there and came closer to read it. "...let's meet every Wednesday after classes, and before Dinner..." - for some reason the text was mirrored but she read it just the same. It was the same old Latin alphabet after all, just from a different angle, no biggie. She decided to check out the club because it sounded fun.
After classes, she ran out of the classroom and back to the toilets. She wanted to know what she was going to see there. She was surprised and excited at the same time when she saw Henry and another girl at the entrance. She ran to them and chirped excitedly:
"Henry, hello! I didn't know I'd see you here! Did you read the note too? Or were you the one who wrote it? This whole thing is so cool and mysterious!"
She turned to the girl next to her friend and rattled on:
"Hi there, I don't think we've ever met before, I am Nicky, Gryffindor, third year, what about you? Are you two friends?"

B.O.O.M. Meeting
Juniper strolled down the hall with a mirror in her hand. Well, she was walking backwards with her mirror in front of her, and she was holding it slightly over her head. She was using the mirror to navigate the school. She stumbled multiple times but only laughed. She passed many confused people on her way to her classes. She walked into charms and brought her notebook out to take notes. However she just filled the pages with doodles and in the end was rushing to copy another classmate's notes. It wasn't a problem, right? She was NOT cheating.
She left the classroom and turned around. She fished her mirror out of her bag and held it in front of her to make her way through students. She passed a poster on the way with strange writing on it. She stopped for a moment and looked at it, wondering if it was gobbledygook, but it wasn't. If it was a language, she didn't know it. She frowned. "Hmmm" She frowned. "Denod- na-" She tilted her head. Huh?
She realized class was about to start and ran for it. She wrote the word down on the paper in her notebook, instead of taking notes. Denodnaba She frowned. What did it mean? And the sign said want to make a BOOM? She was SURE it wasn't a coincidence. She glanced around for Cody in her class, wanting to ask him. But she didn't see him. She rewrote the word, said it in her mind in different accents. Maybe if she said it differently? Did she need to unscramble it? When she tried to unscramble it, the first thing she did was try and write the word backward. It never worked, except for now. Her heart sped up. Abandoned? Was that what it was?
After class, she headed back to the poster. She fumbled for her mirror and stood with her back facing the poster. She faced the mirror to the poster and read it. She smiled. Ahah. Smart.
Smart, but not smart. She walked into the place just as the poster said. She looked at the highlighter doodles on her converse as she thought about who could of wrote the poster. She looked at the group and smiled at everyone. "That poster was real smart, but there are smart people at the school." They needed to do better next time. Then she remembered she needed to say hi. "Hey guys, so who wrote the note?"
She took a notebook out of her bag and headed to the door and closed it. She leaned against the door with a quill and her notebook. "I can take notes!" She grinned. "Don't worry. If anyone finds my notes, they won't be able to understand it. I'll be writing in a... unique family language."

[font=century gothic]Five members, including himself was already there. Cody smiled, knowing this was a bigger turnout than he expected. But whether people were paying attention to him or not, Cody wasn't paying any mind to. He withdrew his Dogwood wand, made the wand movement for the green sparks spell. "Periculum!" The boy shouted. The incantation echoing off the walls.
Curse his high pitched voice he had when he yelled. He looked around the room. A few new faces of course. Adeline, Cody never met before for sure, but she must've been a die hard Gryffindor Quidditch fan. She was someone to watch out for. Next, Henry. Cody had a feeling the two met before, but where? Maybe he'd remember later. Nicky, the third one to walk through the doors after Cody waited for thirty minutes, another gryffindor, but she seemed to be a fighter, a dueler maybe? But, she WAS the founder of BOOM. And as for his cousin, Cody had to roll his eyes at. Juni didn't know it yet, (she finds out after the fall ball IC) but Cody was related to her by his dad's mother- you know what? The family tree's too complicated.
"Hey hey guys! Welcome to Bosses Of Organized Mischief! I'd like to thank NIcky for being amazing and founding this band of friends. Now, I just wanted to ask you all what your personality says about you. That could be your code name, so to speak. For instance, I'd be Chaos Ringleader, as I'm the one wrecking havoc literally. I hardly listen to many, but, I try. Ok, y'all tell me yours."[/font]

“Hmm,” Scarlet said, thinking aloud, she was pretty sure, from as soon as she had heard the question, that she had no clue about the answer, she wasn’t even familiar with the spell, “that may not have made it into my revision yet,” she joked, “lets come back to that one,” she added, giving up on that one for now.
“So, Scorpio, Cancer and… Aries, no Pisces are the zodiacs belonging to the water sign,” she answered semi-confidently, this first half of the answer being something more memorable as Scorpio was her zodiac sign. “And for the air signs,” she said, mulling over the question, “each of the four signs have three corresponding zodiacs right?” she checked. “Gemini. Libra. Aquarius!” she exclaimed, rather more loudly than she had planned.
Scarlet joking sighed before giving a little laugh as Henry returned to the spell etymology type questions, he was a good study partner though, what good was there in only practising the stuff she felt confident with. “Well Lumos means light, so, Solem must mean…bright or strong, no wait, give me a second,” she said, and stopped just trying to guess what it could mean, she knew this, it may be shoved towards the back end of her memory but it was there. ’Sounds like…’ “Sun?” she finally said, “it’s something to do with sunlight right, the light from the sun?” Scarlet asked, smiling after he had indicated that she was correct.
As he looked back down to the book to retrieve another question for her, something unusual caught Scarlet’s eye, a carefully handwritten poster with a heading that drew her into the smaller, and confusing main body of text. “Have you seen this before?” she asked Henry, drawing his attention to the poster also.
Scarlet nodded as Henry too noticed that the words were written backwards, she started to go through the first few lines of text when Henry continued to suggest that a mirror might be helpful. With the aid of a mirror the pair quickly read through the message, “Are you thinking what I’m thinking,” she asked, smiling at her friend, she nodded excitedly when he replied with the question of whether they’d be attending, “of course.”
The two made arrangements to meet after classes had finished for the day, and head to the meeting together, she was filled with excitement as she walked to class, excitement that dissipated soon enough when she remembered the quiz that she had to get through first.
….
The school day was finally over, she had made it through the test, and done quite well, or at least she thought she had, in any case, she didn’t have to worry about Astronomy for the time being. As planned, she met Henry close to the abandoned toilets, “Good, I think, I could answer everything which is good, time will tell if they were any good,” she answered, giving Loki a little scratch on the head.
In the abandoned toilets, which seemed to smell even worse than usual, Scarlet offered a friendly smile to each of the other students as they entered, going on instincts, everyone seemed nice. Scarlet listened as the one she presumed had arranged the meeting called for everyone’s attention, she liked the sound of ‘Chaos Ringleader,’ and was excited for a time in which he would show the meaning behind the title.
Since a title for herself immediately came to mind, Scarlet took advantage of the open floor to introduce herself, “Hi! I’m Scarlet, I don’t think I know most of you, I don’t make a habit of associating with rule breakers,” she joked, praying that they would all see the funny side, she knew she wasn’t the comedic type. “No but, I guess you can call me the Quick Thinker, I’ve found my gut instincts and actions to be pretty reliable, I’ll get us out of any tight scenario, make sure we can have fun without paying the price.” She took a step back to indicate the conclusion of her introduction, allowing the next person to speak up.

B.O.O.M. Meeting
Henry stayed besides Scarlet, gaze flickering toward the next whi entered. Nicky. The teen offered a smile as he replied"Hey, I saw the paper same as you unless you wrote it," rasing his eyebow a little toward the girl before dropping it as he nodded and spoke"yeah, Scarlet and I are friends." Henry smiled over at Nicky, glad the girl was there. Eyes flickering over toward Scarlet, a feeling of comfort flowed through him. Gaze flickering toward Cody, something felt comfortable. Fun even sbout the boy. Then finallt hid gaze found the redhead, a stranger for now but not for long.....
Next to join the group is Juniper. Making it six. A even amount. At least one from each house. Two third years, two second years, and two first years. Even. Small but not to small. A perfect group of pranksters, mischief makers, friends and whatever other words that come to mind when BOOM is said.
"I think we were about to find out who worte the note," Henry replied toward Juniper. His mind curious about her family language, a part him wondering it was a differnt language or something else. Restraining from questions when a spell was fired off.
Dueling instincts took over. Henry pulled out his wand, stepping in front of Scarlet and Nicky. Eyes darting around as spells spiraled his mind. Concern over what happened when his blue gaze from Cody and his wand.
Pocketing his wand, stepping back into line with Nicky and Scarlet. The teen looked at the blonde boy as he spoke"if not necessarily maybe not cast, it could freak some out given the past events the school had," stepping back. The teen listened. Fading into thr background. Eyes flickering at each person. Finger fidgeting with his jacket. Loki sitting on his shoulder, amber eyes gazing out.
Cody's words. The group; bosses of organized mischief otherwords known as boom. Founded by Nicky. Henry glanced at the fellow third year for a moment. Codnames? The teen wasn't sure what to think of this group, he is suppose to be following the rules and keeping straight O's. Be a good student and work toward a prefect position just like hia father and older brother. A prank group wouldn't help him but is sounded fun... interesting even.
Cody choose the codename; Chaso Ringleader. Scarlet went next choosing thr codename; Quick Thinker. Cody mentioned he causes havoc and listens to few meanwhile Scarlet mentioned her instincts and actions, someone who can brewk the rules and get out avoiding punishment.
Henry thought for a moment. Insure what to say. He didn't think that he was special or had any skills. He didn't consider himself helpful or mischievous, someone that could aid kn pranking. The teen eyed around. Taking a breath, Loki nibble his ear tip. A distraction.
Henry looked out, a breath then he spoke"uh I don't think there's anything special or different about me but I am smart," that word 'smart' is a understatement for his intelligence. The lad has straight O's and most days he doesn't even try. A breath as he continued"I guess you can call me the Brains. I can come up with pranks and strategies for avoiding authority and uh yeah." A step back. Waiting, begging for someone to go. Anyone.
