Princess Padfoot vs. the big mean mud puddle

(A Princess Padfoot adventure by James Potter)

One day, Princess Padfoot was at the Three Broomsticks with his best mates in the whole wide world: Remus Lupin, Peter Pettigrew, and the ruggedly handsome James Potter. The four of them were just finishing up their butter beers when they noticed it had started to rain outside.

"Oh, Merlin above," Princess Padfoot wailed, bringing his hand to his forehead in distress. "The mud is going to ruin my beautiful new dragon hide boots. I can't go back to the castle now! I'm destined to remain here forever, trapped in this ramshackle pub. Oh, the injustice of it all!" Poor, poor Princess Padfoot began to cry.

"Not to worry," said James in a deep and masculine voice. He stood up, his roguish and sexy hair blowing in the breeze that had somehow kicked up indoors. "I'll save you Princess Padfoot!"

Princess Padfoot simpered in appreciation. "My hero," he gushed.

Then, James scooped Princess Padfoot up into his strong arms and carried him back to the castle as Remus and Peter sang songs heralding his chivalry. All of the other students cheered James as he passed by, and Princess Padfoot waved his hanky and blew kisses to the crowd.
