A few weeks had passed and the Marauders had settled back into Hogwarts playing pranks and messing with teacher's heads as usual.

"Man you don't know how good it is to be back!" Sirius said to the rest of the Marauders.

"I know!" James agreed and then someone called Sirius' name from behind them.

"Sirius!" The voice said and a 5th year was running up to them.

"What's up Andromeda?" Sirius said turning round to his cousin.

"Nothing, it's just I haven't seen you in ages, you dad wasn't to happy when you ran off" Andromeda explained.

"Oh yeah, well I don't care!" Sirius said lazily.

"Same here but there's nothing we can do about it is there, I mean they are family whether we like it or not" Andromeda sighed.

"Yeah I know, so how's your time been since being back?" Sirius asked.

"Nothing's happening much, since I became prefect everyone keeps coming up to me and asking if they can get out of detention!" Andromeda said.

"You don't do it for them do you?" Sirius asked hopefully.

"No I don't so don't you go getting any ideas! Have Bella or Narcissa came up to you yet this year?" She asked.

"No, but they keep looking at me weirdly!" Sirius said.

"I wouldn't worry about that, that's their normal faces!" She said with a laugh.

"Hey Andie you couldn't do me a favour could you?" James asked pouting.

"For you James Potter anything, as his fan club would say" She answered and her and Lily laughed.

"Not funny, anyway we were thinking of pulling a prank on Bella, Lestrange and Snape could you help please?" James asked.

"Hum, how do I put this in a way that I won't hurt your feelings, ARE YOU CRAZY! I CAN'T DO THAT, I'LL GET IN WELL BIG TROUBLE AND I'LL LOSE MY PREFECT BADGE!" She said trying not to shout but did anyway, luckily for her no teachers or other student's were in the corridor as the last lessons had finished twenty minutes before.

"I told you it would be bad idea to get Andie involved, she might lose her badge and we don't want that do we, she might anger the family" Sirius said the last part sarcastically and Andie glared at him.

"Look you've got to understand, although I think your pranks are funny, they are rather dangerous and I can't put the school in danger," She explained.

"You won't be putting the school in danger, we will instead!" Sirius said with a smile.

"And it's not the school, its nasty, rotten smelling Slytherins" James said.

"Please" Both Sirius and James said at the same time.

"Augh ok what do you want me to do?" Andie said and listened to the plan that Sirius was saying.

"Uh huh no way I'm going to do that!" She said after she heard it.

"Oh please Andie," James begged.

"Its completely below my role as a Prefect!" Andie said.

"Andie we're begging you please help us just this once!" Sirius said now pulling on her robes.

"Alright, nut you've got to promise if you get caught, which you most probably will, you're not to mention my name!" Andie said.

"No we won't…thanks Andie you're the best cousin ever" Sirius said and gave Andie a hug.

"Ah Sirius Black has just given me a hug…I think I'm gonna faint" Andie said and put her hand to her head.

"Before you do can you go and do what we said?" Sirius said with a smile.

"Sure but you lot better get off to bed or I'll have to give you a detention." Andie said.

"Prefect's can't give detentions out!" James said and stuck out his tongue.

"Don't get cheeky with me!" She said in mock anger. "Go on get to bed"

"We're going!" Sirius said and the Marauder's said their goodbye to Andromeda and went to the Gryffindor common room.

"Um guys what is the prank exactly?" Lily asked and sat on the couch.

"You'll have to wait and find out tomorrow Lilykins" Sirius said and Sat on her lap.

"Sirius you big lump get the hell of me!" Lily said and threw Sirius if her.

"You need to go on a diet" She joked.

"How dare you I've lost 4 stone in one day!" Sirius said going along with the joke, Lily got up and walked over to the bottom of the girl's staircase before she said her reply.

"Really it don't look like it, it didn't feel like it either!" She said and ran up the stairs.

"Why you little…" Sirius said and ran after her when he got to the bottom of the stairs he stopped and Lily looked over the top banister and stuck her tongue out.

"Ha you can't get up the stairs which means you can't get me until tomorrow and by then, with your little brain, you would have forgotten." Lily said.

"Oh really" Sirius said standing on the first step…and nothing happened, he stood on the second steep…still nothing happened.

"What's going on…how are you doing that?" Lily asked though pure amazement.

"You see Lilykins…in first year me, James and Remus charmed the stairs with all the spells we could find in this big book that Remus got from the library so we could get up their, so we could catch little naughty girls like you!" Sirius said and started running up the stairs and Lily bolted across the landing like it was on fire.

"Do you think we should go and watch or just go to bed?" James asked Remus at the bottom of the stairs.

"Let's just go to bed and ask what happened in the morning…it's probably safer!" Remus said and James nodded his head in agreement and they went up the boy's staircase to their beds…ten minutes later Sirius walked in limping and went to bed and James and Remus started laughing under their breaths.

A/N: Hi! Sorry this chapter took so long. This chapter was kind of boring but in the next you'll find out what the prank is that Andromeda was helping the Marauders pull and what happened to Sirius when he chased Lily up the stairs. Please review and tell me what you think of this chapter so far.

Thanks
