Wow..it has been a long time since I have updated this story. I've been busy with school and work, but anyways! I finally remembered that I had an unfinished story floating about, and needed to finish it. Usually I write it in an email, that's why the format's so horrible. I'm usually word now, so it should look better. And oh yea, I don't own Harry Potter and all that :/

Snape's plan was simple but effective, and successful. It had been too easy for the greasy haired slytherin. While James and Siruis had been out on their nightly adventures, Snape had been putting his plan into action. Snape knew that James didn't do that well in Potions class, so it was the perfect class to steal a test from. The door was easily opened using magic and he knew where the teacher kept the test copies. Once he had it in his possession, he was quick to head up the stairs. Snape could not hide the malicious smile that curled on his thin lips. The great James Potter, who thought he was so indestructable, was about a bout to be destroyed and Lilly would be his.

" I wonder what is taking the other's so long.." Remus was done studying and was now sitting on the couch, he idly twiddled his thumbs. Lily had disappeared into the girls section of the tower for a little bit, to freshen up or something like that. It wasn't his place to ask and so he didn't. At that moment, the door creaked open and in went a confused looking James.

" Is there something wrong James..?" Remus asked with a concerned gaze directed towards his friend.

" What? yes, I am fine" James snapped at Remus .

A startled Remus watched his friend walk out of the common room. Little did he know that the boy he had just seen , wasn't his friend at all. It was Snape. Who was trying to find Potter's room. Since he had never been in the Gryffindor's dorms before, he didn't know where it was. So he was going through a system of trial and error. Eventually, he came across the room which was empty.

" Perfect" Snape said in a low voice that was smoothered with smugness.

Just as quickly as Snape had left, he had disappeared. The test was left on the bed, halfway covered. That way it made it look like the boy's had been careless in their attempt to hide the test. Snape waited untill the head boy to come and do his nightly check ups.

In the mean time, Siruis and James had just arrived back from their nightly crusade. And bearing gifts at that.

" I knew the kitchen would be loaded tonight" Said James with a triumphant grin.

Remus decided it was best not to bring up the early event, maybe James knew that Lilly had been here. So the blonde haired boy smiled weakly at his friends and nibbled on a few sweets. Just as the Mauraders were about to sit back and enjoy themselves, a yell cut through the hallways

" JAMES POTTER!" And with out warning, the Gyrffindor Prefect stormed down the hallways and into the common Room. He looked furious. His cheeks were a blotchy red colour and his blue eyes were infuriated.

" What?! Oi, are you trying to wake the entire house up?" James said with one eye opened, one eye closed.

" What's THIS?!" And the test was shoved in front of his face.

" Beats me.." And before James could say anything else, McGonagall showed up.

" Boys , what is going on here..? Oh..I see.." The Prefect blurted out everything that had happened and her eyes narrowed at James and his friends.

" James, Sirius and Remus..I am shocked . I never thought a gryffindor would do this" She ignored their pleas, before clearing her throat.

" you can prove your innocence tomorrow, but for now, you two are to accompany me to the Head masters office"

" We didn't do it! It was probably one of those slimey slytherins! I'll give them all a big 2D to the gub if I get my hands on them!" Siruis grumbled under his breath before being lead out of the Common room.

Everyone was staring at them in disbelief, especially Lilly. She had known that the boys fooled around..but to do something like THIS? It was unbelievable. Lilly shook her head in disbelief and walked a way from the Common rooms like an apparition. And this was the moment Snape had been waiting for.

Remus was in shock at what had happened. He was appalled that anyone could even accuse them of such a thing. And what would Lilly think?! His stomach was turning into tight knots around his heart, slowly squeezing the life out of it. He had to go and tell her the truth, he didn't care if he got in trouble for disobeying the teacher. While James and Sirius went off on McGonagall about unfairness, Remus slipped off to find Lilly. Everyone else had been sent to their bedrooms, leaving the hall deserted. Remus was about to turn around a corner of a hall, when he heard a two people talking. He pressed his back against the wall and listened to what was being said.

" James..what are you..? " Lily recoiled in horror when she saw it wasn't James, but Snape.

" Shh...don't worry Lily I don't want to harm you, only love you" And with that said, Snape used a potion to knock her out before running off.

" Lily..?!" Remus stepped around the corner, only to catch Snape disappear. With out thinking, Remus ran after them. Snape as many secret passages as the other maruaders did, Remus only hoped he could find Lily in time.

Well, that's it for now. Please R&R and I promise I'll update more frequently ^^;
