Summery: Peter's thoughts about Sirius. Before Voldemort falls but after Peter betrays the Potters. Semi-campanion to Flaws.
Rating: PG for implied future charecter death.
Author's Note: Another short vignette-thingy. They're so fun to write. Can be seen as companion fic to Flaws. Please review.

It's night; Marauder time as you dubbed it. The time that the Marauders roamed. But what is left of the Marauders? James will be dead (I made sure of that), you, Black will be framed for a crime you didn't commit and Remus is… a monster, a freak. He isn't even allowed work to save to help save the side that he so firmly believes because of his abnormality. I'm sure that my master would take him if he would join.
Yes, my master. Does it hurt you to know that one of the Maraurders, one your loyal, trusty Marauders betrayed you all? Does it wound you that clumsy, talentless Peter Pettigrew was your downfall?
I hope so.
I wish could be there when you see their burned-down house and realize that you had made a mistake. You were to afraid to take the task of being secret keeper so you forced it on me, your lackey, always in your shadow. I can just imagine what you feel when you discover that I tricked you, the confusion, the anger and above all the pain.
The pain that you gave me every day at school. Every time I did something well, you did it ten times better. Perfect Potter and Black. James won't be so perfect now, lying dead in the dirt. Just another victim of the Deatheaters, nothing special.
I was sick of walking his shadow - yours too.
But who is casting the shadow now, Black? The Dark Lord has finally come to power and I will be rewarded for my services. You will take blame for the deed in the eyes of what's left of the Ministry of Magic. If not I will gladly kill you. For you see Black, the time for darkness has truly come... thanks to me.
I don't walk in your shadow anymore.
