DISCLAIMER: I do not own any of these characters except for the made-up ones. Well, those really belong more to my imagination than to me, but let's not get technical. Thanks to everyone who reviewed and to Jess and Amy for all of your support!!! huggles everybuddy
A/N: In Chapter 3, there were some mistakes. Kirk Thomas should be Kirk Lovegood. Thanks to ReadingRobyn for pointing that out. Also, after Mohalia dared James, she then asked Aria. It should have been James that asked her, but I like how Mohalia asked. Please ignore these random mistakes of my stupidity. Please forgive me, as this is my first ever fanfic.
Chapter 4
Mohalia smiled happily as she retook her seat in the Common Room with the rest of them. She wanted to dare Lily now, but knew that she should wait a while.
"Sirius," she said. "Truth or dare?" Sirius grinned.
"D'you honestly have to ask? Dare, of course," he said, grinning at James, who grinned back, ruffling his hair.
"Okay, then, I dare you to put a niffler into McGonagall's office," Mohalia said, leaning back and smiling.
"And where do you suppose I get a niffler on a rainy Saturday afternoon?" Sirius asked.
"Well," Mohalia said, pointing out the window. "For one, it's stopped raining. And for another, Hagrid has a bunch in his garden."
"So, basically, you want me to go outside, nick a niffler from Hagrid, then set it loose in McGonagall's office?" he asked excitedly.
"Yes," Mohalia said. Sirius jumped up quickly.
"Sounds like fun," he said, smiling. "C'mon, you guys," he said, climbing out of the portrait. Everyone else quickly followed suit. Sirius ran down the stairs into the almost-empty Entrance Hall. He looked both ways slyly, then opened up the doors and ran across the muddy ground to Hagrid's hut. Not wanting to get dirty, the rest of them stayed at the doorway, watching him.
He crept up to Hagrid's garden. He could see Hagrid at the edge of the forest, planting something. He walked over to the pen where Hagrid had some nifflers and grabbed one, then sprinted across the grounds again. He shut the doors quickly and proceeded up to McGonagall's office. James walked up and knocked, making sure she wasn't there. After a few minutes, when no one had come out, Sirius walked up to the door and muttered, "Alohomora,". He tried the door, but it didn't work. Cursing, he pulled out what appeared to be a pocket knife. But this wasn't just any pocket knife; it was a knife that could open any lock, and it had been a gift from his Uncle Alphard. He quickly opened it, then shoved it into the keyhole and turned. The door clicked and slowly opened. He pushed it open and shoved the niffler in, then shut it quickly.
"Run!" he said, as he could hear bangings from the room as the niffler began it's hunt for shiny objects. The whole group of them ran up the stairs as fast as they could and didn't stop until they reached Gryffindor Tower.
Once they had all sat back down and caught their breath, Sirius said, "Tifa, truth or dare?"
"Truth," Tifa said, unwilling to do anything embarassing. She was just shy like that.
"Who do you fancy, Tifa?" Sirius asked, unaware that he would be making more people upset.
"W-Well...I-I...Remus," she mumbled. She blushed and looked away from the group. Sirius's eyes got wide and Remus flushed again. Lily felt more sympathy for Tifa than she had ever felt for someone.
"Wow, Moony," James said, trying not to snicker. "Talk about a love triangle."
"Oh, shut up James," Tifa and Aria said at the same time, both of them blushing. Sirius let out a barking laugh again, but stopped. If Remus liked Aria and Tifa like Remus, then who did Aria like?
A/N: I know this was REALLY short, but I didn't wanna have to stop for the next stuff that happens. Plus, semi-cliffie!!! I should have the next chapter up no later than tomorrow afternoon.
