(A.N. I'm SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO Sorry that I haven updated in, like forever. Between school and helping bumblebee build her web site I have just drifted so far from my stories that it's not funny. But I am totally back now. This is chapter 6 of my illuminati story and I really hope you like it. On with the story! -)
The next morning the marauders were the first one's up. Today was the day they execute their plan. 'Professor Whale will learn never to take points from Gryffindor.' James thought. The boys saddled up and headed out into the deserted hallways. They quietly snuck to the DADA classroom. They wouldn't have him again until next week, so they had to do it today. Remus, James, and Sirius went inside while Peter stood watch. The three boys emptied their bags and began their work.
Peter was out in the hall watching intently for anyone that would get them in trouble. An hour later Peter was half asleep in the hall when a teacher came by. It was Mrs. Clairvoyant the Divination Professor.
"Why Peter what are you doing up so early you should be in bed right now. Is Mr. Whale in there? I need to give him this book."
"NO, he isn't up yet! I'm waiting for him," Peter said nervously. He was trying to quickly think of a plan to make her go away, but was having no luck.
"Oh well I'll just leave it on his desk with a note," she replied and she turned to go in. Peter quickly stepped in her way.
"No, I'll give it to him for you," he said hastily.
Mrs. Clairvoyant gave him a questioning look for a moment but quickly shrugged it off and made her way past Peter. "Don't be silly dear I won't put you to all the trouble. I'll just leave it on his desk and that is that."
Peter tried to think of a reason she shouldn't go in there, but he was too late she had opened the door and was quickly walking to the desk.
The other marauders were hiding under some desks in the back of the room hoping they would not be noticed. They had herd Peter trying to stall her and had quickly hidden. She walked to the desk and picked up a stray quill to leave a note for Harry. She was done writing it she put the quill back on the desk when Peter threw the door open.
He had an idea to make her leave. Sadly by throwing the door open the quill had been blown off the table. Wile Peter was rambling his nonsense Mrs. Clairvoyant walked around the desk to pick up the quill. It had fallen under the desk so she sat in the chair and bent over to get it. She came back up with the quill, a triumphant look on her face. She laid the quill back on the desk. But when she tried to stand up she couldn't. She tried again. She had been glued to the chair. As she struggled to free herself, the rest of the marauders plan for Harry went into motion. Every time she tried to stand a bucket of sticky goop tipped more and more. Finally the bucket dropped and the poor divination professor was covered. Suddenly the front drawer of the desk flew open and the papers within it flew around her like a tornado making thousands of detention slips stick to the goop she was covered in.
Mrs. Clairvoyant was temporally blinded due to a detention slip covering her eyes she didn't see a banner came down from the ceiling of the classroom reading-
Gottchya!
Marauders 4 Ever
The marauders quickly slipped out of the room to hed back to the tower as the desk transfigured itself into a pig, which Mrs. Clairvoyant promptly tripped over. As the boys reached the portrait they herd an ear-shattering scream. They quickly scrambled in and ran up to their dorm.
"That didn't go very well," James said as he sat on his bed.
"Yea, we really messed up!" Sirius said as he plopped down on the floor.
"I hope Mrs. Clairvoyant is alright." Remus sighed as he lied down on his bed.
"I hope no one ever finds out that we missed our target," Peter said finally as sat on the floor with Sirius.
"Guess we'll have to wait until everyone gets up to find out." With that the boys got up and went down to the common room to await the other Gryffindors' wake.
Later that morning they trudged into their first class awaiting their punishment. They noticed the mess had been cleaned up and the desk transfigured back so they took their seats and waited for the rest of the class to enter. As Harry walked in to the classroom his gaze fell on the marauders they shivered at the coldness in his eyes. Harry then turned to the rest of the class. "This morning some students were in my class room setting a trap for me," he began, "Their prank backfired however, and got Mrs. Clairvoyant instead. She is in the hospital wing right now recovering from the shock. She won't be returning to classes for the rest of the month. Now we know who did it but I'm going to give you a chance to come forward and fess up. If you do Mrs. Clairvoyant may decide to be lenient on your punishment. So if the culprits would please keep this in mind you will have a chance to go after the class. Now sense Mrs. Clairvoyant wont be teaching classes until next month and substitutes are hard to find all the teachers were given a test this morning to see if any of us were qualified to teach the class in her leave. As it turns out I was the most qualified of the teachers so I will be taking over her classes for her. Now I told you this because the only time she has as class the same time I do, is today for this class. So I'm going to dismiss you today and next week I will give you the work I want you to do for that day and the day after. Ok you are dismissed."
Harry left the room and made his way up too the north tower quickly. He climbed through the trap door where the class was eagerly awaiting their teacher's arrival. Harry had to catch his breath when he got there before he began the class.
"Hello everyone. Now I'm sure you're wondering where Mrs. Clairvoyant is. You see, she had a bit of an accident this morning and she won't be returning to class until next month so I will be substituting for her."
For Harry the rest of the day went by without a problem. Though, the same could not be said for our beloved Marauders.
They were slowly making their way to the hospital wing to give their apologies to Mrs. Clairvoyant. They knew they were in big trouble! Hopefully she would be sympathetic and let them off with just a detention or maybe just a few lost points. The boys walked in and almost immediately turned to leave. Professor Dumbledore was there visiting her they couldn't apologize right now they may get expelled. So they sat down outside the door of the hospital wing. After a few minuets Dumbledore emerged from the ward and spotted the boys sitting by the door. He was going to say something to them but saw the obviously sad, regretful, and apologetic looks on their faces and thought better of it. Instead he gave the boys a glance that clearly said 'You should apologize now.' and left. The boys got up and slowly made their way to the divination professor's bed.
"P- P- Professor?"
James stuttered. Professor Clairvoyant turned her head towards the boys and gave another ear-shattering scream. And she continued to scream until Madam Pomfery came in and shooed the boys out of the hospital wing.
Harry walked up to his classroom after lunch the next day. Who knew having so many classes was this exhausting. He now held a new respect for Hermione for lasting so long with all her classes in third year. He was only on his second day of teaching classes like this and he was all ready, ready to break down.
He sat down at his desk and patiently awaited his next class. After a few minuets some second year students began to file in.
Harry got up and wrote a page number on the black board and then turned to the page in the book on his desk. He stood silently at the front of the class as the rest of the students came in and took their seats. He had second year Slytherins And Huffelpuffs this class and was not looking forward to it. He shut the door as the bell rang and turned around to view the class. Not one of them was paying any attention to him. They were carrying on their idle chitchat oblivious to the teacher in the front of the class. He gave one last exasperated sigh then snatched a paper air plain out of the air.
"ATTENTION!" he shouted already very irritated. The class swiveled around in their chairs to face the front and Harry began the lesson.
Meanwhile…
The Marauders came sliding down the hall desperate to escape Flinch.
"Come back here you little whelps!" he cried, "when I catch you I'll make sure your expelled."
They quickly skidded around another corner and into a secret passage way and held their breath as Flinch turned the corner seconds after the passage door had shut. He kept running down the hall and took a left screaming the whole way. James cracked the passage door open just enough to see if the coast was clear. He looked both ways down the hall and signaled to the others that all was well. They let out a great sigh of relief and quietly crept back to the Gryffindor tower. Upon reaching the portrait of the fat lady the boys burst with laughter.
"Did you see the look on his face when that bomb went off!?" Sirius exclaimed.
"Yea, It was Classic!" James retorted.
Remus gave the password to the fat lady and they piled into the Gryffindor commons still boasting of their triumph. As they entered they received annoyed looks from the other Gryffindors though it only lasted a moment and most of the other students went back to what they were doing before they had barged in, but one fiery red head did not. In fact she looked quite angry.
"What were you four up too?" she questioned, "You weren't sending more people to the infirmary where you!?" she nearly shouted.
"Why, Lilly we would never!" James scoffed as if it were a great insult to their moral character.
"Don't give me that James Potter. I know perfectly well that it was you guys that pulled that prank on Mrs. Clairvoyant," she fumed, "you realize that poor Professor whale has double classes now don't you? He's totally exhausted. I saw him on my way up he looks terrible and it's all your fault."
"He ah, well, uh, we didn't mean, umm… Come on guys!!" With that the boys ran up to their dorms and locked the door to hide from the angry Lilly.
