The professors had outlined the basics of the hunt: enchanted eggs hidden throughout the castle and grounds, each with unique charms and surprises. The students' task was to inject creativity and house spirit into their designs.
As the meeting progressed, ideas began to flow. Ravenclaw eggs that solved riddles before revealing their contents, Gryffindor eggs that required bravery to retrieve, and Hufflepuff eggs that rewarded hard work and fairness.Yôur favorite stories at novelhall.com
Nigel, observing the brainstorming session, couldn't resist commenting, "Ah, nothing says 'Easter' quite like sending your peers on a wild goose chase for magically concealed eggs. Let's just hope the castle's house elves are prepared for the aftermath."
With that, the group disbanded to kickstart the planning phase. As they dispersed, Pansy Parkinson, her voice laced with a playful tone that was unusual when directed at Harry, couldn't help but tease him, "So, Potter, lost for words? I was under the impression you had more tricks up your sleeve."
Harry, with a light chuckle, chose not to respond directly. He had indeed formulated several ideas that would surely astonish the school, but he preferred to keep his cards close to his chest for now.
Pansy, not deterred by his silence, continued her playful jabs, "Come on, Potter, don't tell me you're going to let Diggory outshine you. I thought Slytherins were supposed to be cunning."
Harry looked at Pansy with a smirk and said, "Careful, Ms. Parkinson, one might take your words as a sign of affection. Or should I be flattered by the attention?"
Pansy, unfazed and perhaps even emboldened by Harry's response, leaned in closer, her voice a playful whisper. "Oh, Potter, you should know by now that in Slytherin, we wear our hearts on our sleeves. Or is it that we hide them under our cloaks? I can never quite remember."
Harry chuckled, not giving away much. He had indeed thought of several ways to make the Easter Egg Hunt memorable, but he preferred to keep his strategies a secret for now. "Ms. Parkinson, I assure you, when the time comes, Slytherin's contributions will be nothing short of spectacular. As for being outshined, I believe in letting actions speak louder than words."
Regaining his composure with a light chuckle, Dumbledore said, "Ah, yes, where was I? Right, after lunch, we will engage in the Traditional Easter Egg Hunt!" The announcement sent a wave of excitement crashing through the hall, students erupting into cheers and applause.
The energy was palpable, and even the professors couldn't help but smile at the students' enthusiasm. As the noise settled, Dumbledore explained, "This isn't just any hunt. It's a testament to the creativity and unity of our students, a celebration of the diversity and strength found within our four houses."
The excitement in the Great Hall was palpable, students barely touching their food, their conversations buzzing with anticipation for the Easter Egg Hunt announced by Dumbledore. At the Slytherin table, Tracey and Daphne cast curious glances at Harry, their eyes filled with suspicion and a hint of excitement. They seemed convinced Harry had a hand in this unexpected event. However, Harry only offered a mischievous smile in return, his expression giving nothing away, as if the unfolding plans were news to him as well.
As the meal concluded, Professor Flitwick, with a flourish of his wand, floated above the faculty table, capturing everyone's attention. With a flick of his wand, numbers materialized on the walls, reading "101." The hall fell silent, every student hanging on to his next words.
"There are 101 eggs hidden within the castle, crafted by the four houses, 25 each," Flitwick announced, his voice tinged with excitement. George Weasley, ever the inquisitive one, couldn't help but shout, "What about the last one?"
Flitwick, chuckling at the question, replied, "Ah, the final egg was a special collaboration between a student and myself. I must say, we're quite proud of our creation." His eyes twinkled as he scanned the room, leaving everyone wondering who the mysterious student collaborator might be.
