Sirius and girls went together like the moon and stars, wands and wizards, bangers and mash! There was no escaping it; where Sirius went, there was most likely a small group of blithering, immature and quite frankly silly girls nearby. Even though it was annoying for his peers, Sirius loved all the attention, he thrived on it. Every now and then he would bend over to 'pick up a quill' or flex his strong muscles, all for the benefit of his doting admirers. Sirius was the heartthrob of the group. Don't get me wrong, James received his fair share of interest and Remus had had a girlfriend or two, but when it came to love, Lady Luck shined on Sirius. Peter, on the other hand, had to be the most unlucky fellow that Sirius had ever met. (And that's really saying something, Sirius had grown up with Regulus as a brother.) Overall, it was Sirius Black that the witches fantasized about in class, Sirius Black they adored, and he loved it.
He and his friends had founded a very exclusive society that they had named 'The Marauders'. It was so elite it only had, and only ever would have, four members: Moony, Wormtail, Padfoot and Prongs. Who are they you might ask…well I will tell you in due course, after you learn the antics of which this club swore by. The Marauders prided themselves on being the most capable and creative pranksters ever known to Hogwarts! They out-witted their rivals, not only because they were devious and sneaky, but they were also extraordinarily clever, and daring and brave, 'boldly going where no other mischief-maker has been before!'
Now on to the esteemed members who, as I am sure you have worked out by now, are none other than: Remus 'Moony' Lupin, Peter 'Wormtail' Pettigrew, Sirius 'Padfoot' Black and James 'Prongs' Potter. They had been firm friends since they had met on the Hogwarts express at the start of their first year. When they had all been sorted into the same house, Gryffindor, their fates had been sealed. They spent their days studying, pretending to study, pulling pranks, and generally making a nuisance of themselves. They all lived in blissful ignorance, thinking this happily ever after would indeed be for ever after.
Little did they know that Macy Ariana Gow was currently causing a magical tornado in the dining room of her school in the south of France and subsequently being excluded. Well that's not strictly true, she did not get kicked out because of the tornado on its own. It was really a mixture of: putting a silencing charm on the Head while he was giving a speech to the Minister for Magic, throwing at 20 tonne bolder at fellow student who had tried to trip her (using magic of course) and finally, after being given several warnings, the tornado. So she was now packing her bags and returning to her parents home in England
Soon, she would find herself at Hogwarts and changing life there so nothing would be the same again.
