Chapter 6

"Wasn't Defense fun?" Chrisy asked, throwing things out of her trunk, looking for her jeans. "Yeah! Potions was horrible though. I can't believe Snape took off 20 house points just because we couldn't find our way! Evil jerk!" Constance said, dodging a flying textbook sent by Chrisy. "Calm down Connie!" Mir said, putting her long hair in braids. "Don't call me Connie! It's Con, or Ence. Got it?" Ence said, putting on her camo pants. "Yes, yes, we all know Ence, now, be quiet! We don't want Pattie, Nora or Shenanea to wake up. Then we'd all be in trouble." Lily was right. It was roughly 11:00 PM on Friday night, and the girls were sneaking out to meet Sirius and Remus for some 1st year prankster initiating. This year, they were the ones being initiated. "Thank God for Lily's invisibility cloak, and the Marauders Map. With out them, we'd be lost." Mir said, tying up her shoelaces. "Can some one help me find my combat boots? You know, the black ones, that have moving blue flames on the bottoms?" Ence asked, poking Chrisy in the back. She had found her jeans, and was now reading Hogwarts: A History. "Hey! Watch it! Is everyone ready?" Chrisy asked. She was met with a round of nods, and the four girls slipped out of the common room, in the invisibility cloak, to Remus's office.

"Good to see you girls! Now, take off that dang cloak! It's party time!" Sirius cried gleefully, hopping around the room trying to find his left shoe. Sirius's room was off of his office, which, in turn, was connected to Remus office and room. Both had a narrow hallway connecting to the classroom. Sirius office was pilled high with scraps of paper, and had a rather large cabinet with many items for pranks. "There's a password to getting into the Chest of Pranks, if you must know. It's 'mumbo jumbo'. You can use it any time." Sirius added, looking at Lily and Ences' hopeful faces. "Ready girls?" Remus asked, sticking his head out of is room, the girls nodded. "Well then, let us go."

~*~ "Trinity, you really need to smile more. You are so much prettier when you smile." "Kali! I don't smile unless I am very happy. Heck, probably the only thing that will make me happy this year would be seeing Snape in a fluffy pink tutu, and bright rainbow hair. Oh, and seeing us win the Quidditch cup this year. Griffindor has won one too many times for my book." "Trinity! You know 1st years can't join the house teams!" Kali said, throwing a pillow at Trinity. "Not if I can help it. Good night!" Trinity said, drawing her curtains shut.

"Remember girls, the incantation is 'Ricti Flores Muchos'. Put that on Snape's seat in the great hall, Lily, Chrisy, you stay here, and change his grease into Herbal Essence Shampoo. Remus and I will handle the 'Tutti pinkie poo" Spell. OK? Meet back in the entrance hall, and we'll work on finding a good name for your group. Got it? Good." Sirius whispered into the cold dark air, not aware of a cobra hanging from a doorknob.
