~Chapter 2~ Winter Fun.

Now Harry Potter may have been the boy who lived but he wasn't "the boy who could keep a secret for too long". He told Hagrid all about his godfather and how wrongly accused Sirus had been.

So when Hagrid saw the black dog approach him, he knew who it was immediately. He also recognized Lupin once the former Dark Arts professor came out of the woods.

"Yer timin' couldn't 'ave been better!" Hagrid said with a smile to the two as Remus took a seat on the chair and Sirus, still in his dog form, sat on the ground beside the chair.

Hours passed through the grounds while the two friends listened to the half giant tell of what had happened to poor Harry Potter.

For you see, it was winter vacation and most of his friends had been summoned by their parents to come home for once, which left a very lonely Harry.

Sirus, by this point, had transformed into his human form once more and had a smile on his face. His mind had wandered back to the days of mischief and excitment.

*~*Flashback*~*
All the students, who had been outside at the time, were laughing and had crowded arounda huge mount of snow at the ground.

Muffled crys could be heard underneath the mountion of white as the four friends grew a twisted smirk to their faces, except for one.

"Hey guys, don't you think Severus has had enough? I mean, what if he can't breathe under there?" Wormtail asked with concern.

"Oh, that is a good point, Wormy!" Padfoot said with a smile as evil as it could get, "Now why don't we help out our good friend Snape from under all that snow?"

At first it seemed that no one understand exactly what Padfoot was getting at but suddenly, Prongs had his own devilish smile.

Moony had joined his companions in their wicked plot but Wormtail was left clueless. As usual. "May I?" Padfoot asked with almost a pleading tone of voice to his buddies.

Prongs shook his head no and said with a grin, "This one's all mine." Taking out his wand, all the other students stepped back. They never trusted any of them when the either of the four had a wand in thier hand.

For good reasons as well. For with a swish and a flick of his wand, Prongs chanted a spell. Blue sparks flew from his wand and landed on the snow, causing a huge blue fire to spring up from the mount, melting the snow quickly.

"Nice touch, using fire thats immue to cold." Moony said extra loud, so Snape could hear. Then Padfoot and Moony both patted Prongs on each shoulder for a job well done.

The student body gasped as they watched the fire get closer and closer to where poor Severus laid helpless under the snow.

Wormtail looked on with worry that Snape might actually get hurt. When Severus started to scream, Wormtail ran as fast as he could to get the nurse.

Finally Snape was seen but his robes were already on fire. jumping to his feet, the slytherin boy ran around screaming.

After laughing at him for a moment or ten, Moony wiped his eyes of tears from laughing so hard and said, "Do you think we should tell him that the blue fire doesn't burn anything BUT ice yet?"

Prongs said through his laughter, "No but why don't we help him put the fire out? But lets give him a few more minutes, this is too funny!"

When their laughter stopped, Padoot whipped his wand out and swished it to wards Severus, and with a chant of words, a huge column of water came out vertically from his wand, and smash into Snape, pounding him into the ground.

Left cold and shaking, Severus stood up when the water had stopped and glarred at the three. "I'll get you for this! I will have my revenge one day!" he said through tears of humiliation.

Before anyone could see his tears, Snape ran into the school as he headed for the nurse, leaving behind a crowd of students all mocking him and laughing.
*~*End of Flashback*~*

With a small hit in the arm by Lupin, which Hagrid took no notice of, Sirus turned his thoughts back to the conversation. Lupin knew his friend had been daydreaming so he filled Sirus in on what he had missed of the talk. He had not really missed much.

"Well ya better head to the school and tell ol' Dumbledore 'emself that yar here. He'll give ya sum rooms." the groundskeeper said with a smile.

As darkness fell upon the schoolgrounds, the two marauders left the warmth of the hut, and made their way across the frozen snow-covered grass as they headed towards the entrance of the school.
