Years End
Remus got out of the hospital wing a week later and they had won every Quidditch game since but one against Ravenclaw. It was so close to, but finally the Ravenclaws got the snitch. They won the Quidditch Cup, but lost the House Cup to the Slytherins. The marauders got them back, and bad they will think twice about bragging next time they win something. But right now it was the last day of classes and they were all board in Binn's class you'd think that a dead guy would be more interesting. The marauders were apssoing notes during the class while Andy slept and Laura was taking notes for the next years class.
(AN: I'm writing the different lines for the different people in different ways. Did I write different to many times? But anyway here it is Remus, James, Peter, Andy, Lauraand Sirius.)
Merlin this is bloody awful!
How could he be this boring! He's dead a ghost he should be living!
Well we only have one more day.
To long.
Way to long.
Stupid coffee, if we didn't drink coffee this morning we could be sleeping like Andy over there.
She's smart.
In a dumb way.
Watch it mate!
Sorry.
It's okay hey wake her up class is almost over.
James leaned over to nudge Andy on her shoulder. She moaned and punched James in the arm.
"Come on get up." James said.
"Five more minutes." Andy moaned.
"Come on class is almost over, then we leave and never come back until next year."
"I'm up." Andy said raising her head up. She looked over at the notes and punched Sirius in the arm and took the parchment and started writing.
Dumb? Who you callin' dumb? I outta hex you into next week.
No have mercy on me!
Stop being a git.
Never!
Just shutit you two.
Hey look Laura finally fell asleep.
New she couldn't stay awake the whole class.
Better wake her up.
Andy slapped Laura up side the head and she threw her head up and gave Andy a death glare. And grabbed the parchment and took out her quill.
What! I was having a good dream about lolly pops.
Class is almost over.
Thought you might want to get up.
Well thank you for being so caring.
No problem at all.
The bell rang signaling that class was over and everybody flew out of the class so fast that there dust shapes were still there. (NA: Don't know why I put that in there.) They walked over to the Gryffindor common room, history was there last class. They planned to play a big prank that night for the end of the year so they had to go and plan it out in the boy's dorm room.
They all sat in the common room waiting for dinner to roll around.
"I'm hungry." Peter complained.
"You're always hungry." Sirius said.
"Speak for yourself." James said. "You're the one who's always hungry."
"Am not."
"Am to."
"Am not."
Am to."
Am-"
"Shut up!" Andy yelled over them. "You're too loud and we are trying to think."
"We have to come up with a good prank for tonight." Remus said.
"What about something with the stair case?" Laura suggested looking around.
"But what?" Peter said.
"How about we put the slide charm on them?" Sirius said. "You know like the one on the stairs to the girl's dorm?"
"And of course you would know about hat charm." Andy said smirking.
"Shut it." Sirius said pointing. "But anyway, if we put a sealing charm on and a code no one will be able to break it but us."
"That is brilliant!" James said smiling broadly.
"I know!" Sirius said.
"Don't mean to ruin the happy mood but hello dinner?" Laura said holding up Remus's wrist and pointing to his watch.
"Oh you're right." Andy said looking at her own watch. "Better get goin'."
They all made there way down to the great hall for dinner. They got through dinner pretty good without spilling any of the information about the prank. But right after dinner they agreed to meet in the common room at ten thirty sharp and then pull the prank.
&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&
"Come on hurry up." Andy said as they snuck down the stairs and to the common room.
"I'm trying, hard to move fast and be quiet at the same time." Laura snapped.
"Alright, chill out." Andy said. "We're there anyway."
"Where are they?" Laura said confused.
"Oh I don't know where oh where could they be?" Andy said in a mocking voice as she walked over to a corner of the room and pulled the invisibility cloak off of four boys three disappointed and one smiling.
"I hate to say I told you so but I told you so." Remus said.
"You think you can fool a werewolf you crazy idiot." Andy said.
"Worth a try." Sirius said.
"Come on let's do this." James said putting his hand out.
"We solemnly swear we are up to no good." They all whispered together and then got underneath the cloak and left the common room.
They made it over to the stair cases that lead down to the great hall and took the cloak off.
"Okay alright. Do we all have the charm down?" Sirius asked. "Good let's go."
They all spread out and started casting the charm on the various stair cases that went down to the first floor of Hogwarts. After about five minutes of casting they all came back to the spot they started at.
"We need a password." Remus said.
"How about Slytherin sucks." Peter said.
"No, to obvious." James said.
"How about… marauder madness?" James said shrugging.
"Perfect!" Sirius exclaimed.
"Shhh! Keep your voice down!" Laura said.
"Mischief managed." Sirius said.
"Mischief managed." They all repeated.
"We had better get back I think I hear someone coming." Remus said listening hard.
"You're right… It's Filch. Come on we gotta go." Andy said.
They threw the cloak back over them and ran quietly back to the common room. When they got there they said the password and crept back in.
"Come on Laura. Lily's a light sleeper we gotta get back up there before she hears us." Andy said.
"We'll see you in the morning guys." Laura said waving to them.
"Bye." Andy said.
They all went up to there dorms to go to bed by now it was really late at night and they needed to get up early if they wanted to see there prank in action.
&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&
They all woke up early like they wanted to and ran down to the common room to see if any body left yet. When the boys got down there they realized that a good portion of Hogwarts was still asleep and nobody had come down to the common room yet.
"Hey guys." Laura said as she came down with Andy behind her.
"Hey Laura, Andy." James said.
"Anybody up yet?" Sirius said.
"Yup a couple girls from the dorm next to us are awake. Putting on there makeup so they'll be down in an hour." Andy said sitting down on the couch.
"What about the boy's?" Laura said.
"Nope they'll be asleep for another hour. There guy's they'll sleep until they have five minutes to get ready for breakfast and then get up." Sirius said.
"Well what do you wanna do?" Peter asked.
"We could… go out early?" Remus said. "Go for a walk?"
"Can't, remember what happened last time we went out early? Filch caught us and has been watching the Gryffindor house like a hawk. Wouldn't be surprised if he's standin' out there righ' now waitin' for us." Andy said.
"Damn it." Remus said leaning back.
"Ooo, Remus getting angry and frustrated are we?" James.
"No."
They sat in silence for another twenty minutes before someone finally said something.
"I wonder if I could put chrome on a broom…" Andy said as she layed on her back on the floor and started at the ceiling.
Everybody turned around slowly and looked at her. "What?" James said.
"Do ya'll think I could put chrome on a broom?" She said again now looking at them.
"Asking if you could put chrome on a broom is like asking 'can I get every girl in the school' the answer is duh!" Sirius said.
"Hey people, hey Sirius." Said one of the girls that walked down the stairs and she smiled flirtatiously at Sirius, her friend came down behind her and smiled out of the corner of her mouth at Sirius and James and raised her eyebrows twice.
"Hey." He replied.
The girls giggled and walked out of the room smiling.
"See? What did I tell ya? They are all mine." Sirius said pointing to himself.
"Not all, I'm his." Andy said pointing to Remus.
"hey they just walked out of the room and are going to go down to breakfast right?" peter said.
"Prank." James said.
They all ran out of the common room and down the stairs just in time to see the girls slide down the stairs and scream.
They all had to hold in there laughs by covering there mouths. And then they saw three familiar Slytherins walk by them and over to the stairs.
"Here they come." Remus said.
"Get ready for it." James said already laughing.
They saw Snape, Crabbe and Goyle walk down the stairs but on the sixth step the stairs turned into a slide and they slid down the rest of the way ramming into each other as they went.
They could not hold in there laughs any longer and just burst out laughing, Sirius and James fell to the floor holding there stomachs. Then they saw a large portion of the school start to walk over and head down to breakfast. None of them got any further, the marauders and Andy and Laura laughed so hard as they saw twenty people at the least fall down the stairs.
"Let's go down to breakfast." Sirius said walking over to the stairs.
"This'll be fun." James said.
They all stepped up to the stairs and all looked anxious except for Laura and Peter they seemed rather scared.
"You sure?" Laura said.
"Of course." Andy said.
"Look, we'll go first." James said. "Let's go Sirius."
Jame sand Sirius jumped down the Stairs and when it turned into the slide they slid down head first with there arms stretched out in front of them.
"WOO HOO!" Sirius said as he rounded the turn.
"Whoa! Make way!" James yelled at the people at the bottom.
Everybody moved out of the way and let two of the marauders slide down to the bottom.
Back at the top of the stair case.
"So how do you wanna do this?" Remus said. "They took head first, how about we… put that charm on our feet you know the one that gets rid of friction?"
"Great idea, now see that's one of the reasons I'm dating you." Andy said as she pointed to her feet and muttered a charm o her and Remus's feet.
"But guy's, what happens when you get down t the bottom?" Laura said.
"Yeah if you have no friction you'll keep on going." Peter said.
"You're right." Andy said.
"Timer charm!" Remus said. "It took them ten seconds to get down to the bottom so if we put it on for ten seconds it'll go off."
"Okay let's do this." She saw Remus cast a timer charm and activate the non friction charm on her feet. She slipped a little but got her footing back and put the same one on Remus.
The two used the hand rails to get down but when they got on the sixth step the stair's vanished and they slid down on there feet the rest of the way all the while holding hands.
When they got good footing as they slid down they both got into surfer positions as they slide down to the bottom.
"Here they come!" Sirius said.
"Non friction charm excellent!" James said.
The two slide down in less then ten seconds and kept on going until it wore off and they crashed intro the wall.
"That, was so cool!" Andy yelled as she got up off the ground.
"I think I broke something." Remus said getting up.
"Let's see what Laura and Peter do." James said.
"I'm just going to go down on my butt." Laura said.
"Agreed." Peter said as they walked down the stairs.
"AAHH!" Laura screamed at the top of her lungs as she slid down the stairs with Peter right behind her with his eyes shut.
They came to the bottom both stunned and scared to death. But after a couple of seconds of staring Laura started laughing and s o did Peter. Sirius walked over and helped Laura up as James help Peter up.
"You looked brave out there Pete." James said patting him on the back.
"Bloody hell that was fun." Peter said.
"Oh no teachers." Remus said pointing to the top of the stairs.
"Damn." Sirius said.
"Who did this?" Dumbledore said as he stood at the top of the stairs. No one replied him, but he had his eyes fixed on the marauders and Andy. No one suspected Laura because they all thought she was too good to do something like this. "Everyone go to breakfast while we try and figure this out and whoever did this had better come forward."
Everybody walked to dinner without another word and the rest of the day was fun but they had to take the charm off the stairs at the end of the day, they had to pack there things. So they went upstairs, packed, went to Hogsmeade and got on the train to go home for the summer.
