The Reveal
Waiting in the Entrance Hall of Hogwarts, Hermione Granger was annoyed. Her best friend Harry Potter was being even more mysterious about his date then she had been about hers - Victor Krum, currently standing next to her. And he was running late, Professor McGonagall had already called for the Champions and every body else had been ushered into the Great Hall but Harry and his dates (or dates she had heard him make that slip of the tongue several times but she wasn't sure if bringing two or more girls to the dance was allowed ) had yet to arrive. Did he even have a date? Ron had found it difficult to find one and in the end had accompanied one of Ginny's friends in third year, a nice Ravenclaw girl named Luna Lovegood. Suddenly she saw him walking down one of the spiral staircases
The Entrance
On each arm was one of the Patil twins who she couldn't tell apart for they had gone with the “DoubleMint Twins” look. They must have been the most conservatively dressed female students in the room for each wore a cheongsam, the cut of which was not quite traditional as they had a much lower neck lines then usual but it still stopped quite short of the girls breasts. From what she could and couldn't see the twins possessed flawless skin in a tone just darker then Hermione her self had ever dreamt of getting, along with well toned bodies that stopped just short of being muscled complete with perfectly flat stomachs, small nipples atop their nicely developing upper B cup breasts and it was clear the twins shaved for there was not a single hair below their necks. The reason for Hermione knowing all of this was that except for very small patches to preserve the wear's modesty, that judging by the way the twins moved where spell based, the outfits where completely see through as she could just make out the visual distortion of looking through something.
Other then the see-through dresses the only thing the twins where wearing where red stiletto heels, they looked to be about 4 inches to Hermione's untrained eye and a rather simple choker. The choker was a simple one: a tube of gold ran around the neck with the House Potter coat of arms on the front. Hermione couldn't tell what was keeping it so high up the twins' necks. The only other jewellery they where wearing was a pair of rather subdued stud earrings which Hermione had seen Parvati wearing every day and a navel piercing the seemed hold a broach.
What hair the twins still had was immaculately groomed. Eyelashes had been lengthened and straightened, eyebrows had been plucked, thinned and trimmed while the twins hair had probably received more attention then Hermione's own. It was also the first time she noticed that the twins' wands where identical, just like their owners, for their hair was done up into buns but instead of the usual chopsticks the girls had used their wands, all four of which where identical.
The twins wore very little make-up, just enough for you to know it was there and to enhance the girls natural beauty but without going overboard like the sluts and tarts like Pansy and Lavender had done.
Taken all together individually the twins might outshine Fleur and she was a Veela, together they where clearly the prettiest girls in the room, hands down.
The Balance of the Ball
“Your friend is very lucky to have such beautiful Concubines” Victor said to Hermione. Not knowing how he knew that and what it meant she thought it was better to ask. "How do you know that and what does it mean?" she responded. "Those chokers, they are concubine ones, meaning they most likely they are his concubines or are merely playing at being so for the night, as for what it means you will have to ask your friend. I would advise that you keep your wand handy tonight, someone is likely to cause a scene and you might want to silence them before it gets out of hand."
"Misss' Patil, you can not be thinking of attending the Ball in those scandalous outfits and Mr. Potter I am sorry but you can not take both of these ladies to the Ball" said Professor McGonagall in her Stern Teacher of Justice tone. "Professor, the twins are wearing outfits that cover them far more completely then many of their peers and nothing is showing that shouldn't be, nor will it due to the way their outfits are charmed. As to the matter of me having two dates, there is no rules prohibiting me from doing so, only one that says as a Tri-Wizard Champion I must have a date to the Yule Ball. Furthermore, if I where to bring only one of the twins the other would have had to miss out and I am not prepared to allow that to come to pass" replied Harry calmly, giving McGonagall a glare that would melt lead. "Okay, be it upon your head then Mr. Potter" conceded Professor McGonagall.
As McGonagall sorted the Champions and their dates to line up 2 by 2 (three at the point of Harry and the twins) Victor guided her to the back of the line saying that he wanted to see how people reacted to Harry and the twins and how they responded. As they entered the Great Hall Hermione could see that many people where stunned and amazed at Harry and the twins, the drooling/ogling from the guys she had expected but the GIRLS where steering as well, it was like they where looking for something, what ever it was but they soon found it and most of them stopped. As they walked past Malfoy on their way to top table she saw Parkinson slap him, Bulstrode punch him in the face and Greengrass cast a couple of spells at him, she also saw Luna Silence Ron and say something to him, do doubt telling him to keep quite and not ruin the evening, she was thankful that Ron could not cast the counter-curse silently and made a note to learn how to do so, it might prove useful.
When they got to the high table Percy was most put out when he was asked to relocate elsewhere to make room for Harry's extra date. Judging by the look on his face, Professor Snape was itching to saying something nasty at Harry, but ever since Harry had been selected as the Fourth Champion he had been receiving offers to transfer from schools all over and that he was standing on thin ice, not just with Headmaster Dumbledore but the other two Headmasters and the British press. At this point Victor whispered to her that "The girls" and by this she knew he meant the twins "looked to be really enjoying themselves with the way they where smiling and preening and it" here she guessed he meant the twins dresses and they way they came together with Harry "was probably their idea as her friend looked somewhat uncomfortable" well Hermione guessed if she had brought two girls who where basically nude she would be uncomfortable.
When the dancing started Harry didn't do the silly thing and try to dance with girls at once, rather he took one out and danced with her then when the song ended then switched to the other. Several boys who had not managed to find themselves dates tried to get the twin who Harry wasn't dancing with at the time to dance with them but where always refused, some more polity then others. Then things started getting interesting, it was time for the Champions to switch partners, she got to dance with Cedric while Victor danced with Cho, Harry danced with Fleur and strangely Roger did not dance with one of the twins but rather one of the several girls who had not come with dates or whose dates where not that interested in dancing that had taken to hanging around where Harry changed in hopes of getting a dance with him. The next dance was her with Rodger, Fleur with Victor, Harry with Cho and Cedric with one of the girls trying to get a dance with Harry, who at this had started increasing as people had noticed a pattern. Finally it was her turn for a dance with Harry while Victor one of the extras Harry had picked up, Fleur with Cedric and Cho with Rodger, the weird bit was when Luna came over and danced with one of the twins. Seizing her chance she asked "Harry, whats going on? You show up with the Patil twins and they're dressed like that, Victor says something about them being your concubines and now the twins aren't dancing with any other boys but will dance with Luna." "Lets just say Victor was right and everything else stems from that for now. Look, I could do with a bit of a break, but after I've given Luna a whirl for helping out Parvati, so why don't you give Victor one more dance then we'll grab some drinks and have a chat with Ron, I don't want to have to explain this more then once" was his reply.
