A/n: Hi people. I updated this morning. Yay. So, Let's see how long it takes me to type this.. Does anyone know how to make words show up italic? If you do, would you please leave it in a review or email me at sora_doragon@lycos.com. Thanks! Love you all!
Chapter Ten (a/n: Wow! I'm at chapter ten!)
Ginny raises her eyebrow as she walks into Snape's office. Snape and Harry are both looking at her, but on the desk there is a piece of paper. Snape gestures for her to come over and look at it. There are four comments on it, all insulting Professor Snape. Ginny smiles, but when she sees the names, she looks confused.
Snape sneers, like normal. "Well. This parchment definitely has some sort of secret to it, wouldn't you think, Ms. Weasley?"
Ginny looks at it. Calmly, she says, "I suppose." She was making eye contact with Snape, almost as if they were having a staring contest.
Snape frowns. "It would not open for me. I would like for you to try it."
Ginny looks down. "I don't know how to do it. I've never seen this before."
Coldly, he answers, "I don't believe that. Try it."
Ginny shrugs. "Can't promise anything." She looks back down at it.
Harry looks really lost. He doesn't think Ginny can open it. He hopes not... He'd be in deep trouble..
"Ok... Do I just talk to it?" Snape nods. Ginny puts her wand tip in the middle of the paper. "Ummm.. Padfoot? This is Gin. Will you tell me the spell to get this to work?"
Writing appears on the paper:
Mr. Prongs would like to say that no matter how much Mr. Padfoot would like to tell you, he is not allowed to.
Ginny smiles.
Mr. Padfoot would like to ask what his Gin is doing with Snivellus.
Ginny laughs. Harry is shaking his head, he doesn't get it. Snape is frowning.
Mr. Moony would like to comment that Mr. Padfoot looks ready to murder Snape.
Mr. Wormtail agrees with Mr. Moony, and adds that Mr. Padfoot looks funny when he's mad.
Ginny frowns when Wormtail's writing comes up. "So, no spell?"
Mr. Moony says no, and that Mr. Padfoot is still pouting.
Ginny smiles. "Tell Mr. Padfoot that 'his' Gin says that Mr. Padfoot looks cute when he's pouting."
Snape shakes his head and then walks over to the fire and practically yells in frustration, "Lupin, a word?"
Lupin steps through the fire and looks at the paper. He almost smiles, but hides it at the last second. Ginny puts her wand away and looks at Lupin.
Snape says, "Well? Lupin? Can you give us any insight on how to use this, or what it is?"
Lupin shakes his head. Snape narrows his eyes. "It's probably a prank some students did."
Snape nods. "Exactly what I was thinking."
Lupin looks at Harry. "It looks like it just responds to when someone talks to it. Harry, did you get this from any of these people? Do you know these people?"
Harry shakes his head. Lupin smiles. "Well, I'll just be taking this then."
Snape interrupts, "But I-"
"To make sure no students find this and use it somehow to get in trouble." He steps through the fire, after putting floo powder in, of course.
Snape is looking at Ginny. She shrugs; then walks out of the room. Snape looks at Harry, who runs out of the room as fast as possible so he doesn't get in trouble.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Ginny meets Lupin in the hall. She smiles.
"Good show, Remus."
"I can see you were having fun with it."
"Of course I was. Now, tell me what it does. Please?"
He arches his eyebrows. "You really don't know?"
She shakes her head. "You think he told me everything? I hardly heard half of what you all did."
Remus grins. "It's a map. And that's all you're going to find out."
Ginny shakes her head. "No, tell me more!"
"Sorry, I have to meet a student in my office."
"Is her name Hermione Granger?"
Remus smiles. "Maybe."
Ginny laughs.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
The Marauders sat in the common room, late at night, circled around the Map. Sirius is still frowning. Remus yawns.
James looks at the map. "Well, that was weird. How were they talking to us through the map?"
Remus adds, "Odd, isn't it? When did Snape become a professor?"
Peter says, "How did he get the map?"
Sirius speaks. "What was she doing with him?" As if on cue, Ginny walks down the stairs to the girls' dorms. The boys quickly put the map away. James, Remus, and Peter stand up.
James says, "Yes. Well, goodnight." They walk up the stairs.
Ginny sits down next to Sirius on the couch. "You have a weird group of friends, Sirius. So, was I interrupting something? Planning the next attack on your next unsuspecting victim?" She leans over onto his shoulder.
"What are you doing with Snape?"
"Snape? What do you mean?" She looks at him. "Why would I be doing anything with him?"
He smiles and puts his arms around her. "That's what I wanted to hear." He kisses her.
*****************************************************************
So, how'd you like that one? I don't know whether I liked it too well. Oh well. On to the next chapter I guess. I'll start working on the prequel, as soon as possible. I leave for Chicago tomorrow. So, R/r!
KeeperOfTheMoon: We need to get some other people writing sb/g stories! I love this pairing, don't you? Thanks for reviewing!
Killer Angel: I hope this was fast enough! lol, I was planning on updating really soon. Well, the thing w/ Hermione is going to be in the next chapter, so you'll just have to wait a little!
Porphyrophobic Grape: A grape that fears the color purple. Hehehehehe. Sorry, it's really early. Everything's funny when it's early. That's cool that you re-read the book. I read that one a lot. I've definitely read that one the most. I go and cross out where ever it says "Peter Pettigrew". Hehehehehe.
Bell: Thanks! I'll try to have the prequel up soon. I probably won't have it up until this one is finished. I like to do one story at a time so I don't get them confused. Believe me, I would.
The Elfin Child: Thanks for the tip. Hopefully this one is a little better. I'm really glad you said something, because I never would have noticed. ^__^ I'm glad you like it! I hope you liked this chapter!
Osuwari!!!: Funny screen name. Sit boy!!! Hehehehehe. Thanks for reviewing! I hope this was soon enough.
