Summary: Fred and George’s first and most successful prank sets a precedent for their future.
“We could ask the ghoul to scare him,” George suggested.
“Ron's five now, he's not afraid of the ghoul anymore,” Fred sighed.
"We've got to think of something,” George said. “He broke our favorite trick wand. We don't just want him to go squealing to Mum about a bat in his room, he has to really pay.”
Fred's seven year-old brow furrowed in thought, then a rapturous expression broke out on it.
“George, what's the one thing little Ronnie can't live without?”
George's eyes widened, with glee, horror, or a mixture of both, Fred couldn't tell.
“Teddy,” George almost whispered.

The plan was foolproof. They would wait until Ron had been sent off to bed, then right when he was on the verge of falling asleep, they would turn his teddy bear into a spider.
It worked better than they'd expected. Ron was terrified beyond belief.
After they'd been sent to bed thoroughly scolded and with boxed ears, George whispered across the quiet room to his twin, “Fred?”
“Yeah, George?”
"That was the best fun I've ever had! Let's promise we'll never grow too old to play pranks.”
“I promise, George,” said Fred, and they drifted off to sleep.
