Summary: The Marauders take an interesting little trip to Diagon Alley.
"Hey James!" Sirius called to the untidy haired boy. "Wait up!"
"Hey Sirius, are Moony and Wormtail here too?" James asked as he let Padfoot catch up. The four were planning to meet at Diagon Alley today. As usual, James had been the first to arrive. He had put on his invisibility cloak and had flown over on his broom. Illegal maybe but still effective
"I don't know, I haven't seen-"He stopped short as he heard their voices coming right be hind him as if on cue.
"Wait up Padfoot!" Wormtail yelled as he ran a little ways behind Remus.
"So where exactly are we going to go first?" Lupin asked shaking his hair out of his face. "I thought we should go to the bookstore first," He continued despite Peter's loud panting. "We could knock everything out of the way and then you go wreak some havoc."
"Sounds good enough for me." James said. "Okay we'll head over to Flourish & Blotts." They started making their way toward the shop.
"I still can't believe they want us to get this Astronomy book," Lupin was saying. "I mean, we had it last-"He cut short and noticed that Sirius and James had disappeared. He and Peter didn't have to even look. They strode up behind James and Sirius who were pressed up against the glass of Quality Quidditch Supplies talking about the new broom in the window.
"-that's got to be the best one yet." James was saying.
"Of course it gets up to about 70 miles per hour, that's got to be good hasn't it?" Sirius said reading the little sign.
James stepped back to admire it. "I think I'll buy it." He said simply, strutting past the little wizard next to the door. The others followed through but the little wizard stopped Sirius.
"Hey now, I didn't do anything yet!" Sirius yelled as the little wizard, though little, pushed him back out on the street.
"Can't you read?" The man grunted pointing at a sign to left of the door, which read:
No Sexy People Allowed
"What!?!?" Sirius yelled disbelievingly, "I can't go in because I'm sexy!?!?"
The little wizard nodded. "We had to put it up because everyone was out raged because most of the sexy Quidditch players would come in and crowd up the store. Absolutely no one even remotely sexy can enter"
Sirius stood there gaping at the sign. He couldn't get in because he was sexy, a compliment and a real burden at the same time. He had to get in that shop!
An old man came up behind him and entered through the doors.
"Good evening Mr. Connary" the little wizard said nodding as the guy nodded back.
A little while later the little wizard saw an old witch coming up the street. He immediately rose to help her.
"Need any help mam'?" he said cheerfully to her.
"Uhh...no thank you...I just want to buy a broom for my grandson." She said in an usually high-pitched voice.
"Oh okay." The wizard said sitting back down as the witch glanced up at the sign.
"Who judges who's sexy and who's not anyway?" she asked.
"Oh, that would be me mam'" He said to the witch, but suddenly, she wasn't a witch any more. She was a horror-struck wide-eyed teenager. Standing next to the pile of her clothing.
Sirius bolted down the block.
