A/N: Sorry it's so short. It's only the prologue though! I already know what Bill is going to tell Remus so this will be updated soon, I hope!! Please R&R! Thanks and enjoy!
"I'm bored," Sirius stated as he sat down on a musty old couch. Tonks, Fred, George, and Bill were seated in somewhat of a circle around him.
"You're not alone," said George, "mum took all of our joke shop stuff away."
"Moony's not here, it takes all the fun out of things," sighed Sirius.
"I don't have anything to do," Bill said, "so I'm bored out of my mind too."
"And I have the day off of work, and I don't have guard duty tonight, so I know how you feel," Tonks added.
"This bites," Fred concluded.
"Exactly, and since Moony's not here I think we should get back at him for not being here to save us from our boredom," Sirius stated as a Marauderish grin crossed his face.
"What?" asked Tonks.
"We'll make a list of the top ten things that would annoy him. Then obviously complete those things. Whenever we're bored we can do one of the things on the list, starting with ten and working our way up to one," Sirius explained. "So," he continued, "who's in?"
"I'm in," both twins said in unison. Next came Bill.
"I'll do it." Then finally Tonks.
"Fine, I guess I'll go along with this."
"Great," Sirius said as he got out a quill, a piece of parchment, and some ink, "lets get started. Ok, number ten?"
"What if I told him this really long joke and it just happened to have a really stupid punch line?" Bill questioned.
"That's good," said Sirius smirking because he knew Moony hated it when people did that, "how about number nine?" Both Fred and George were laughing about something.
"We could talk in Morse Code whenever we're around him?" Fred asked.
"He wouldn't understand a thing," George said in a devilish tone.
"Perfect," said Sirius, "now onto number eight."
"I could play the Weird Sisters repeatedly until he's forced to leave the room," Tonks added. Everyone in the room laughed because they new how much Remus hated the Weird Sisters.
"I knew you were related to me somehow Tonks," Sirius added as he continued to laugh. "I've got one we can all participate in. Every time you talk to him, finish your sentences 'according to the prophecy'. And for number six, repeat every thing he says to you back to him in the form of a question, like you don't believe him." Fred and George were rolling on the floor.
"What's so funny?" Bill asked.
"It's just that we do that to mum and she gets ticked!" They all laughed at the picture in their heads of Fred and George doing this to Molly.
"Next is number five, anyone have any ideas?" Sirius asked.
"Well," said Tonks, "I could tell him he couldn't sit next to me at dinner because my imaginary friend is sitting there."
"Keep it coming," said Sirius as he laughed in his head because he knew Moony liked his little cousin.
"For number four Fred and I could stand over his shoulder as he reads and whisper stuff," George said.
"Nice one George!"
"Thank you Fred."
"I've got number three," Sirius stated, "at one of our Order meetings when he proposes an idea I could say that I've got a better one and then say something really stupid."
"Nice that will really get on his nerves" exclaimed Bill.
"I've got another one," Sirius said, "whenever he's not looking I'll move his bookmark three pages of where it was before!" Tonks laughed knowing how annoyed Remus could get if Sirius did that to him. "And now for number one, what should we do to him? All of us should participate because it's number one." All of them stood in complete silence, trying to think of something that would annoy the hell out of Remus.
"What if we hide his stash of chocolate?" they all exclaimed in unison. Grins worthy of the original Marauders spread across their faces. Well one of them was an original Marauder but still.
"This will make him furious," Tonks said.
"Don't forget outraged," Bill added. They all agreed on the list. It was a master plan on how to annoy the ex-professor.
