The Entrance Hall rang with laughter Even Fred and George joined in, once they had got to their feet, and taken a good look at each other's beards. Alani was the only one not laughing. "I did warn you..." said a deep, amused voice, and everyone turned to see Professor Dumbledore coming out of the Great Hall. He surveyed Fred and George, his eyes twinkling. "I suggest you both go up to Madam Pomfrey. She is already tending to Miss Fawcett, of Ravenclaw, and Mr Summers, of Hufflepuff, both of whom decided to age themselves up a little, too. Though I must say, neither of their beards is anything like as fine as yours." Fred and George set off for the Hospital Wing, accompanied by Lee, who was howling with laughter. Alani went into the Great Hall. The decorations in the Great Hall had changed this morning. As it was Halloween, a cloud of live bats was fluttering around the enchanted ceiling, while hundreds of carved pumpkins leered from every corner.
