The twins began trying out and selling their products, such as Canary Creams , at Hogwarts as their sixth year began. When the Yule Ball was announced, Fred asked Angelina Johnson to attend with him, declaring it a "piece of cake" to ask a girl out.
Angelina said yes and they went to the ball together. At the end of the school year, Cedric Diggory , one of the champions, was murdered by Peter Pettigrew on the orders of the newly revived Lord Voldemort , who was reborn.
In the summer of , before their final year at Hogwarts, Fred, and George passed their Apparition tests "with distinction," and took to Apparating and Disapparating around 12 Grimmauld Place to surprise people, much to the displeasure of their mother.
They helped clean up the headquarters of the Order of the Phoenix , but they also pocketed Doxies from behind the curtains and possibly Wartcap powder for their experiments, and spied on the Order's meetings using the Extendable Ears they invented although most of the time the Ears proved useless as the door was often Imperturbed. Fred and George during a D.
Fred and George resumed testing and selling their products at Hogwarts in their seventh year, though Hermione Granger managed to prevent them from testing out Skiving Snackboxes on unsuspecting first years by threatening to tell their mother. Umbridge kicked them both off the Quidditch team that year after George and Harry got into a fight with Draco Malfoy , who had penned the demeaning song Weasley is Our King to humiliate Ron , and then proceeded to insult the Weasley parents and the late Lily Potter.
Fred would have participated in the fight, but was held back by three of his team-mates. Fred was greatly upset by his father's injury, especially since Percy did not join his family at St Mungo's , deepening his estrangement. When the D. Fred and George decided that they no longer cared about getting into trouble, and that they were going to cause as much mayhem for Umbridge as possible.
When the Inquisitorial Squad was formed and one member, Graham Montague , attempted to dock House Points from them, Fred and George shoved him head-first into a Vanishing Cabinet before he could finish speaking. They set off spectacular fireworks of their own creation, Weasleys' Wildfire Whiz-bangs , which soon became best-selling products. After taking their disruptive activities easy during the Easter holidays, Fred dropped out of Hogwarts with George in a final act of rebellion against Umbridge.
They left in a flourish of vandalism, chaos, and hexing members of the Inquisitorial Squad. A small part of a Portable Swamp created in the corridors by the twins was preserved by Professor Flitwick , as he saw it as a " really good bit of magic ". Initially, Fred and George's ambitions to open a joke shop had been something of a disappointment to their parents, in particular their mother, who had hoped they would seek employment with the Ministry of Magic like their father.
In fact, it was so successful that in , the twins had moved out of their childhood home and into a flat above the shop; later, the twins considered buying Zonko's Joke Shop in Hogsmeade , which had closed the previous year. None of this would have been possible without the funding Harry Potter had given them in In the summer of Harry, Ron , and Hermione Granger visited the shop. Fred showed Harry around, showing him the wide verity of products in the back. He also offered Hermione a Patented Daydream Charm for free after she called them "extraordinary magic", but still charged Ron for his purchases.
Ron also made some rude gestures at Fred for having him pay, which, to his misfortune, Mrs Weasley saw. Fred and George also questioned Ginny on her love life and how she was moving through boys too quickly, much to her irritation.
Fred and George stay at the Burrow for Christmas. That Christmas, the twins stayed at the Burrow for the holidays. When Percy arrived with Minister for Magic Rufus Scrimgeour , and it became clear that the two had only come so that the Minister could question Harry, Fred threw mashed parsnips at his older brother, along with George and Ginny, causing Percy to leave swiftly.
These are very expensive and Fred was only able to buy it due to the fact that " business was booming. They participated in the Battle of the Seven Potters, along with their father and their younger brother Ron. Fred and George took Polyjuice Potion to become one of the "seven Potters". While in Privet Drive they also tried numerous times to lighten the mood. Once in the air a large group of Death Eaters attacked the Order members and their charges, this led to a massive sky battle.
Fred flew with his father on a broomstick, it is unknown what happened to them during the battle. He was upset to learn that his twin had lost an ear due to a Sectumsempra curse at the hands of Severus Snape.
There was nothing that could be done about George's ear, as it had been cursed off with Dark magic. Although initially panicked to the point of being speechless when he saw his twin's loss, as soon as George started joking about it, Fred calmed down. That same summer, Fred and George eagerly flirted with two " pretty French girls ", who came to the Burrow to attend their brother Bill 's wedding to Fleur Delacour.
It is possible that these girls might have been related to Fleur. He also reminisced about his late uncle Bilius , to the entertainment of George, Ron, Harry, and Hermione. It is unknown whether or not Fred was still present at the wedding when Death Eaters stormed the wedding looking for Harry Potter. When the war reached its worst point in late and , Fred participated under the code names "Rodent" and later "Rapier" in Potterwatch , a radio programme hosted by his friend Lee Jordan that opposed Voldemort's reign of terror.
They spread the truth about the Death Eater regime that was not being reported by the Daily Prophet or other news outlets, and encouraged the public to support Harry Potter and to protect Muggles and wizards alike who were falling victim to the Death Eaters.
Fred, along with his family and friends, returned to Hogwarts in the spring to participate in the final battle. He and George were assigned to defend the castle's secret passages by Kingsley Shacklebolt. When the Death Eaters forced their way inside, Fred fought next to his brother Percy , who had recently been reconciled with the family and combated his former boss, Imperiused Minister for Magic Pius Thicknesse , transfiguring him.
While fighting, Fred was killed in an explosion outside the Room of Requirement by an unknown Death Eater. One of the last things Fred heard before dying was Percy joking about resigning from the Ministry. Percy wouldn't leave Fred's side until Harry helped him move the body to somewhere safer, coincidentally behind a suit of armour. His body was later moved to the Great Hall , where family and friends then mourned over him.
His whole family, including extended family and friends such as Harry and Hermione, were devastated when Fred died. Ron and Harry came very close to forgetting their primary goal of hunting down Voldemort's remaining Horcruxes in the wake of Fred's death, being so enraged that they wished to hunt down Death Eaters to kill, with only Hermione's persuasiveness were they able to restrain themselves.
Percy became extremely furious that he chased down Rookwood in an attempt at revenge, and Molly was utterly murderous when Bellatrix Lestrange mocked her of Fred's death, to the point of killing her with astounding duelling skills. The rest of the Weasley family survived to see the downfall of Voldemort and the end of the war. His twin brother George later had a son whom he named Fred in honour of his lost brother.
In the s, Fred's past self appeared as a Foundable in two different instances during the Calamity. In the first, he appeared wearing a Weasley jumper with the letter F for his first name on the front, hounded by a pair of Howler Confoundables. Fred also appeared alongside his Yule Ball date, Angelina, trapped by a snowstorm Confoundable, which required the usage of Meteolojinx Recanto in order to dispel it and return the pair to their own time.
Fred, similar to all the Weasley children, had a head of flaming-red hair and abundant freckles. He had a shorter and stockier build, like his brothers George and Charlie , rather than a tall, thin build like his brothers Bill , Percy , and Ron. He also has a big nose, like Molly. George and Fred dragging an invisible Harry Potter as he tries to sneak to Hogsmeade.
Fred Weasley was the more outgoing, daring, and sarcastic of the twins. During the rescue from the Dursleys in , George picked the lock on Harry's bedroom door with a hairpin, while Fred insisted Muggle tricks were important to know, even if it was "a bit slow" [15] , and "accidentally dropped" a Ton-Tongue Toffee for Dudley Dursley to find and eat. Fred concocted the scheme of trying to fool Albus Dumbledore 's Age Line to get into the Triwizard Tournament , though it was unsuccessful, and was in favour of blackmailing Ludo Bagman after he defaulted on a bet, while George had reservations.
Fred tended to take the ringleader role in their pranks, but was also crueller in his humour or in dealing with those he disliked [21] ; for example, he and George had absolutely no compunction in forcing Montague into a Vanishing Cabinet , an act which, according to Malfoy , nearly killed him. However, it is possible that he was unaware that the cabinet was broken and thought Montague would have stumbled out of another cabinet, too confused to remember to dock points from them, as he initially was planning to do.
Fred could be quite callous in dealing with the victims of his pranks, particularly his older brother Percy , but was more compassionate when he did not feel that the victim deserved it; he immediately provided Hermione Granger with bruise removal paste after she was accidentally given a black eye by the twins' boxing telescope.
Both he and George were renowned for their senses of humour; they were able to make people laugh and relax even in very difficult times. Neither Fred nor George took school very seriously, but they were both very talented wizards, and demonstrated their ingenuity in their inventions and their business sense in running a highly lucrative shop.
They were also staunchly loyal to their loved ones and very brave, as evidenced by their been sorted into Gryffindor and unafraid to stand up against what they thought was wrong, whether it was Dolores Umbridge 's tyranny at Hogwarts or Death Eaters. Although not a high achiever academically, Fred was a very gifted and creative wizard. He and his brother were extremely skilled at charming and bewitching items. Harry Potter once expressed bewilderment as to how he and George received only three O.

George Weasley : twin, best friend, and partner in crime. George Weasley was Fred's twin, best friend, and partner in crime. They were about as close as two brothers can be. They did just about everything together. They often finished each other's sentences and spoke in a back and forth way that could confuse others at times.
Together, Fred and George designed many ingenious pranks and shared the ambition to found a joke shop together. George was devastated by the death of his twin in the Battle of Hogwarts , and would never truly get over this loss. He eventually named his firstborn son after Fred. The Weasley family on holiday in Egypt. Ron , Ginny , George , and Fred in Like his younger siblings, Fred tended to look up to his older brothers Bill and Charlie.
However, he and George delighted in teasing Percy , who was closer to their age and very different from them in personality. Avada Kedavra can be dodged. It can be blocked physically or with spells.
However, Harry and the five friends who accompanied him, all D. Lucius was knocked unconscious by a Stunning Spell cast by Nymphadora Tonks during the battle. Lupin, played in the films by David Thewlis, was murdered in the battle by Death Eater Antonin Dolohov, while Tonks was killed by Bellatrix Lestrange, leaving their son, Teddy, an orphan.
It was a lot to take when J. Rowling killed off beloved characters like Albus Dumbledore, but a bit too much when Fred Weasley, the affable jokester and twin, died in the Battle of Hogwarts. I mean, even J. Rowling regrets killing off Fred Weasley. When she's not writing, you can find her trying to learn a new language, watching hockey go Avs!
