Oh No! Holly Chang: A Harry Potter Fanfic By @RowenaRavenclaw51 Based on the books by J.K.Rowling And the play by Jack Thorne, John Tiffany and J.K.Rowling. Chapter 10: I don't know who was most surprised. Me and Fay were clinging to each other and Rose literally screamed. The ghosts seemed to be arguing about something. "Forgive and forget," said a fat one. "We should give Peeves another chance." "Hasn't Peeves had all the possible chances?" queried one in a ruff. "And he's caused so much trouble this time. You know, we had this argument a few decades ago in this same spot. You won. Peeves has done more trickery since then and nobody can say it's got better." Just then, I think, the ghosts noticed us.

Mum wouldn't tell me what we had to do. She said she wanted it to be a surprise." The girl spoke about all this as if it was mildly interesting - nothing to worry about, really. She also held the aura of distinct dottiness even though she really looked quite sane. It was just something about her. "Of course what Mum says is usually nonsense. Always talking about nargles and crumple-horned snorcacks." I didn't really know what to say. Eventually, I said "I'm nervous as well. What do you think they'll make us do?" The girl didn't get a chance to reply as we were interrupted by Professor McGonnagal. "We are ready for you," she said and we were led through the doors...
