“ACCIO SHOTGUN!” is my new favorite spell.

I couldn't see the full title of the link to the post originally, and I thought it was "He Who Must Be Named." I'm not sure how that would work.

"So we're all going to meet up in Hogsmeade. The whole quidditch team, and Steve."

"Who's Steve?"

"Steve! You know, He Who Must Be Named? That Steve."

"What Steve? Do we even know anyone named Steve? How did Steve become He Who Must Be Named? Did we vote on this?"

"Don't be daft. Voting is for muggles. Percy drank one of Fred and George's special teas, started spinning madly and giggling, then stopped and screamed like Hermione did when Snape gave her a A- on a test and yelled 'Steve! STEVE! STEEEEEEVE!' Then he took off his robe and ran into the forest naked."

"And?"

"And what? Obviously that means Steve is He Who Must Be Named."

"That makes no sense at all!"

"Exactly! Steve!"

Harry has better aim then me. Even though I braced myself, the first time I fired a shotgun the kickback hit me so hard the blast went waaay up and over the target. That was 10 feet away. Not a scratch. (And I was an adult then and he's just a kid here.) How people keep those things steady is beyond me.

Having never read the HP novels and only seeing snippets of the movies, I'd say this definitely seems legit.

He then raised his wand and shouted, “ACCIO SHOTGUN!”

That's my kind of wizard, which uses pellets and black powder.

That's what the Potterverse needed: shotguns.

Brilliant! Very funny. I love Harry Potter but this version is so much better than the original. Now, write Ron's brothers back in. : )
