Chapter 20: The Search for the Wands

"Shh, James, stop coughing," Lily hissed in a cupboard on the first floor.
"Sorry," James muttered. Lily had her ear pressed to the door, listening for any sounds.
"I think the teachers are gone," she whispered. James grabbed the handle.
"So now we're off to get our wands!" James sang happily and Lily clasped her hand over his mouth.
"Shut up!" she whispered impatiently. She removed her hand from his mouth.
"But you said-," he started.
"I know what I said, but if you're singing, chances are some one is bound to hear you eventually." James sighed and followed Lily out of the small cupboard.
"You're the boss-," he started but she quickly hit him.
"Run!" she whispered and they sprinted quietly up the stairs.
"Who's there?" Professor Infrina asked. She looked around and saw the cupboard door open.
"Who's there?" she asked again. Finally, she closed the door and continued walking.
"Whew!" James sighed from the second floor. "That was close!" He stood up and dragged Lily with him. "Two more flights." he informed her when they reached the stairs.
They started climbing up but immediately ran down when they saw Peeves on the third floor.
"Hello, kiddies!" Peeves sang as he saw them running down the stairs. "What are you doing?" He bounced happily down the stairs after them. "I thought you were in detention!"
"Peeves, go away," Lily hissed to him.
"Why should I?" he asked her with a slight frown on his face. "I'm just having some innocent fun!" and he knocked over a cabinet. "Heeheeheeheehee!"
"PEEVES?!" shouted Professor Infrina's voice from downstairs. Lily and James ran up the stairs as if they were in a marathon.
"WHAT DID YOU DO?" she yelled at the poltergeist. He laughed.
"Potty and his girlfriend are here!" he laughed.
"What on earth are you babbling about?" Professor Infrina sighed as she walked back downstairs.
"Only one more floor!" James said excitedly. "Let's go!" And they snuck up the stairs with no problem. The broke into Professor McGonagall's room. And to their surprise, she was sitting at her desk, marking homework.
"Get down," Lily hissed as she pulled James to the floor.
"Aw, how are we gonna get our wands NOW?" James whispered.
"I guess you'll have to cause a distraction or something," Lily said to him. She completely forgot about being mad at him.
He nodded. She snuck up under a desk in the second row and gave him the thumbs up. He smiled and pushed a chair over.
"What was that?" McGonagall screamed as she jumped out of her chair. She stomped to the back of the room in a huff and picked up the chair, shaking her head.
Meanwhile, Lily ran to her desk, opened the draw and picked up all the wands. She quickly closed the draw and sprinted back under the desk as she watched McGonagall's feet walk by. She hurried out of the room with James and they ran swiftly down the stairs.
"That... was close," James panted when they got to the dungeons a few minutes later. Lily nodded in agreement.
"Where'd you guys go?" Julia asked when she saw the two of them catching their breath. "And why are you out of breath?"
"Haha, went off to snog, did ya?" Sirius teased. Lily gave him a deadly look and he shut up.
"We got your wands back," she said finally, handing each to their owner. "Now hurry and clean up. McGonagall will be back in 10 minutes."
