Summary: Set of four drabbles I wrote for the Sirius100 prompt contest. Prompts were: Snow, Murder, and Blood. The first three could easily fit into the One Wish universe…the last one…well, you'll just have to wait and see.
Disclaimer: I do not own Harry Potter because it is obviously the property of JKR and associates. I make no profit off of any of this…it's just for my own personal amusement.

The bouncy, dark-haired, two-year old gazed around in awe at the snow-covered garden. She wriggled in Sirius' arms, squirming to be let down. The Marauders and Lily watched amused as Maria experimentally grabbed a fistful of snow. Sirius broke into barking laughter when Maria shrieked and shook the cold snow off of her hand. Maria beamed in response to Sirius' laughter, grabbed his hand, and dragged him over to a snow-bank. Then she pointed, "Look Sirius! Lookit all the ice-cream!" She gazed back at her parents, who were also laughing, and excitedly asked, "Daddy! Can we have ice-cream for breakfast?"

Word Count: 111 words (Just a little bit over...)

Maria and Sirius lay side by side on the Hogwarts lawn, gazing up at the starry sky.
"Can I ask you a question, Sirius?"
"Mmm."
"Have you ever murdered someone?"
"Yes."
"Do you feel guilty?"
"He was trying to rape a Muggle girl. She had green eyes."
"You didn't answer my question."
"No, I don't feel guilty."
"I murdered Professor Quirrell – with my bare hands."
"I know. I was part of the team that investigated his death."
"I don't feel guilty."
They lay silently on the grassy lawn - Maria with her head on his chest, Sirius with his arms wrapped tightly around her – and gazed up at the starry sky.

"SIRIUS!" Startled, Sirius jumped in fright and swore as he stubbed his toe. "SIRIUS!" He quickly wrapped a towel around his waist and hobbled out of the bathroom.
"Maria? What's wrong? Are you hurt? Did someone attack you?" Panicked, he verified the lack of intruders, and then began to search her for injuries.
Sniffling, the eighteen old lifted up her knee and pointed, "I tripped. Look! It hurts and I'm bleeding!" Sirius gazed dumbfounded at the single droplet of blood on the young woman's knee.
Then he growled, "You made me panic and rush all the way down here…because you SKINNED YOUR KNEE?"
Maria gave him a wide-eyed, innocent look. "Actually, I just wanted to see you all half-naked and wet from the shower."

Title: Dead
Prompt: Blood/Snow/Murder
Word Count: 100 words exactly...I am on a roll!
A/N: Contains: Maria (girl!Harry), non-Azkaban Sirius, and lots of angst. Set seven years after Blood drabble. Even though this is the most angst-filled…it's my favorite.

The crimson blood haloed about her head. Her pitch-black hair a stark contrast to the white snow upon which she lay. Sirius dropped to his knees and picked up a pale, cold hand. He slowly turned it over and traced the black skull and snake burned into the soft skin of her arm. He used his other hand to gently pull the bone-white mask off of her face. Her brilliant green eyes gazed sightlessly at him – devoid of the sparkling laughter he once adored. Devastated, he gazed silently at the face of the woman he loved, the woman he murdered.
