Chapter 3
Dynamic Duo Back In Action
"Expelliomus" "Taymenie Huntebra" "Serma Sentacom" "Bronte Combiena!" All four boys yelled within moments of each other.
The first spell was cast by Remus made to disarm Snape. The second was by James that threw Snape off his feet, the third cast out by Sirius, made deep severe cuts all over Shape's face and body. The last curse that was cast by Peter and it turned Snape into a dark shade of blue.
Snape gasping for air, blood trickling down his face, had a look on his face of deep horror and humiliation.
James turned towards Sirius and said. "I didn't think that you would help me out!"
"Even if we're fighting, I will always have your back, Prongs." Sirius answered putting his hand on James's shoulder.
Then James turned back towards Snape pointed his wand at him and said "You… you ever talk about my girlfriend like that again and you will wish we were never born, I guarantee it."
At that moment James abruptly turned around and heard foot steps of someone coming from around the corner, without speaking Sirius looked down at the map, noticed it was Filch, and whispered "Mischief Managed" as he pointed his wand to the Marauders Map.
"Don't move!" said a groggily voice of great hatred.
"Mr. Filch it's not what it looks like... okay yeah it is. Angus, my dear old chum are you going to give us the usual speech? I mean honestly, James, how many times have we heard it now?" asked Sirius.
"I think it has been about 7 or 8 times," James paused. "this month!"
"No today, you boys are going to go to the Headmaster's Office." he said with a sneer. "You come with me to the Headmasters Office also." He said to Snape.
"Sirius, I can't get expelled!" James whispered. On the walk up to the Headmaster's Office all James could think about was Lilly and how he had just finally gotten with her and now he will never see her again.
"Headmaster... the trouble makers have arrived!" said Filch in an excited voice.
"That will be all Angus." As Filch left, his eyes were downcast to the floor and muttering something about missing the show." Mr. Potter, I hope that in the past few days you have recovered from the loss of your parents, hard I know, but in due time you will find it shall get easier. They were the finest people I ever knew and they did not die in vain. Mr. Lupin I was hoping not to see you in my office for this reason again, I was mistaken, I would have hoped that you of all people, being a prefect and all you would know better. Mr. Pettigrew still following the crowd I see. And Mr. Black..."
"Don't tell me, you're disappointed and now I get to be expelled?" Sirius asked.
"Professor, you can't expel us. Where will Sirius and I go? This has been a terrible time and he deserved it this time!" James told Dumbledore with his face turning as red as cherries picked at the peak of perfection.
