A/N: Hey everyone! I'm back! I haven't disappeared and I'm updating!

OotP. It's just not nice. Heh heh heh. Sorry again that it took so long. (

Chapter 3
Sandry and Lily were still sleeping at seven o'clock the next morning. Each girl was dreaming peacefully and neither one of them heard the hinge on the door creak as it was opened. Neither heard their curtains get pulled back.
Sandry rolled over giving the person who had opened her curtains a perfect view of her face. Slowly and carefully the people who were standing over them pull out their wands and grinned mischievously.
Lily stirred. She opened her eyes. They landed on the person standing over her. She opened her mouth to scream, but nothing came out. (A/N: I was actually going to leave you here and go to a different place but.) Once her eyes adjusted to the darkness she recognized who it was and smacked him in the elbow. This of course made him squeak (A/N: Bear with me here) and grab his elbow. While doing that he hit the person next to him, making that person loose their footing and fall onto Sandry's bed.
"WHAT THE FU- SIRIUS BLACK GET OFF OF ME THIS INSTANT!" Sandry shouted and she too smacked him, "I swear one of these days I am going to successfully to kill you." Once Sirius had gotten up Sandry jumped out of her bed. She was wearing a pair of plaid pajama pants and a dark blue t- shirt with a logo on it that said 'Brave Believers'. (A/N: I actually have those, they are very comfortable.) Lily just sighed and closed her curtains. "A lot of help you are, Lils!" Sandry exclaimed as she pushed Sirius and James out of their dorm.
"Your welcome!" Came Lily's reply.
"I guess we'd better get dressed," Sandry said once she had magically locked the door.
Exactly twenty minutes later, both girls were walking down the dorm stairs. Remus, Sirius, James, and Peter were there waiting for them. (A/N: I just realized that I haven't put that little piece of-yeah you know-into the story. If I did well then there's no problem. But if I didn't well there he is. *Forces a smile*.) The group went downstairs to the Great Hall and sat in their usual seats.
"Hey look, mail," Remus said picking up the large assortment of letters that where in the middle of the table.
"And schedules," Sandry said, picking them up. She handed everyone their schedule and Remus did the same with the mail. "Wow, Si, James, you guys get a lot of mail," Sandry remarked as their pile got higher and higher. There was about 10 letters in each. She then grabbed her own letters-only about five-and quickly flipped through them. "Mom, Seth, Kay, junk, and no name. Interesting bunch today."
The junk letter ended up on her plate and she was opening one from her mom when Lily said, "Sandry! This isn't junk! It's from a one John Murphy." Lily made the ooooo-ing sound and said, "Anyone we know?"
"I'd think not. He's an extremely annoying kid that lives down the block from me. He like a stalker I swear." Sandry shuddered. She grabbed the Letter from no name before Lily could go through all of her mail. She had already gotten through the letter from Seth and Kay.
"Who's it from?"
"Your very nosey Lily."
"Yes I know it's a weakness. Now who is it from?" Lily said still looking over her shoulder.
"I don't know. I'll let you read later." Lily looked at her skeptically but shrugged it off and continued eating, "Oh and Lily?"
"Huh?"
"What did Seth and Kay say?"
"Seth just wanted to tell you that you should be getting a Christmas present from him this year because he got the job and Kay was just checking up on you. She says hi and stuff."
"Thanks, but can I have them? I want to write Kay back." Lily shrugged and handed over the letters, "Thank you."
"No problem. James, Si, Remus, you're too quiet. What are you planning?"
"Planning Lily? What would give you that idea?"
"Hmm...I dunno...maybe it's the fact that you're only quiet when you're planning something sinister?"
"Lily! I'm astonished!" Sirius said overdramatically, "How could you think something like that?"
"Sirius, drop the dramatics. If you're planning something, you'd better let us in on it."
"No can do Sandry," Remus said. "Come on we're going to be late for Ancient Ruins." The group got up and left without another word on what the Marauders were planning to do.
"So!" Lily whined. Lily, Sandry, and Remus were sitting at a table in the Ancient Ruins classroom.
"Lily, please do not whine," Sandry said to her. Professor Rattenburg was lecturing them on the ruins of some ungodly place in Africa.
"Sandral-" Sandry placed her hand over Lily mouth only the have it bitten.
"Ow! Lily! What the fuck was that for?"
"What did that letter say?"
"Oh, that! Here." Sandry opened her textbook and handed Lily the letter from no name. Lily unfolded it and her eyes darted across the small print. At one point she let out a gasp, which earned her a look from Rattenburg. He obviously thought she had gasped to what he had just said and continued putting the class to sleep.
"What are you two doing?" Remus said looking at them confused.
"Nothing," Lily chirped. (A/N: Please don't go there.) "Sandry, that's so sweet! You should write him back!"
"One problem, Lils, no name."
"Oh, yeah. That could be a problem." Sandry rolled her eyes. Remus was eavesdropping and he glanced at the letter Lily had been reading. For some reason the handwriting seemed familiar.
"Hey, Sandry, who's that from?" He pointed to the letter.
"No clue." Sandry folded the letter and put it back in the textbook that was sitting unused on her desk.
"Anderson, Evans, and Lupin, detention! And if you continue to talk amongst yourselves, it'll be a weeks worth," Rattenburg said, startling the three out of their conversation.
"Sorry, professor," all of them said at the same time. After another half an hour of 'learning', the bell rang. Somehow the professor found a reason to make them serve the week of detention anyway. So after much arguing with him, Remus, Lily, and Sandry headed down to the Great Hall.
"So, any new ideas?" Sirius asked as Remus, Lily, and Sandry slid into their seats.
"Nope, but I want to prank Rattenburg," Sandry said simply. Lily gave them a look that said 'Don't ask', but Sirius missed it.
"Why?" he asked out of curiosity.
"Why? Because *I* have a weeks worth of detention with him!" Sandry exclaimed, her eyes blazing. Sirius looked astonished.
"A week? God, you got off easy." Remus smacked his head with his hand at this comment. Lily sighed and scooted away from Sandry like she was a ticking time bomb, which at this moment there wasn't much of a difference.
"Sirius how many detentions have I had since we've started Hogwarts?" Sandry asked in a deadly voice.
"Um.. two?"
"Wrong. None. Zero. Nada. Ziltch. NOTHING! Ok? NOTHING! Now my perfect record is scorched," Sandry said surprisingly keeping her tongue. At that moment Professor Rattenburg decided to walk into the Great Hall. Sandry glared at him, which thankfully for her, he didn't see.
"Jamie!" a high female voice yelled. James cringed as the owner of the voice walked over to the Gryffindor Table. "Hiya, James."
"Hello, er...Stacy?" He shut his eyes hoping he got the name right.
"Close, Sam." Sam didn't seem bothered by the fact James had just got her name wrong. She then decided to make herself comfortable and sat down in James' lap. Sandry who had been holding back her laughter snorted into her pumpkin juice, which she had been drinking at the time. Sam shot her a nasty look. "*What* is so funny?" she spat at her.
"N-Nothing." Sandry didn't trust herself to say anymore. Lily was looking un-amused and she was having better luck holding her laughter back since there was none. Remus had his eyebrows raised at the two of them and Sirius was, well, he was preoccupied.
James looked over at Lily to see her reaction to this action, but Lily was concentrating on her meal. She didn't look up again during dinner. James looked back at the girl in his lap and inwardly groaned, wondering what Lily thought of this.
Quickly finishing their dinners, Remus, Lily, Sirius, Sandry, and James- nearly dropping Sam-went back to the common room.
"I told you we target the Slytherins too much...plus I'm getting Rattenburg whether you guys help me or not."
Sandry was arguing with Sirius and James about the next prank.
"Sandry, there's two things wrong with what you just said. One, there is no such thing as targeting the Slytherins too much. Two, Rattenburg can and *will* take off house points," James calmly pointed out.
"And what Dumbledore won't?" Sandry shot back.
"No...well, yes, he will...but at least he's more lenient about it," said Sirius.
"What if Rattenburg couldn't prove it was us?"
"Go on," James said, looking at Sandry curiously.
"Well, you see, Lily showed me this simple charm."
Later that night James, Sirius, Remus, and Peter were sitting in the common waiting for Sandry to come down.
"That's it!" Sirius said, exasperated. "I'm going up there and pulling her down her myself."
"Si, just give her 5 minutes."
Sirius sighed but agreed. A couple of minutes passed and Sirius, being the impatient one, started walking up the stairs that led to the girl's dorms. About half way up those stairs, unknown to Sirius, Sandry was walking down. As soon as they met Sandry panicked. Whipping out her wand she pointed it at his throat.
"Lumos," she whispered and a ball of light emitted from the tip of her wand illuminating both their faces. "Si? What are you doing up here?" she whispered narrowing her eyes.
"Well, I was going up to get you. We've been waiting for at least an hour down there."
"Shh! God with that voice you'll wake everyone up. It's only been 15 minutes, Si, don't exaggerate." She walked the rest of the way down the spiral stairs, the light from her wand disappearing around a corner. Sirius followed.
"Sandry where have you been?"
"What kept you?"
"Well, it seems that since this is only the second night of being here, the girls in the dorm, excluding Lils, decided to have a.oh what did they call it? Ah yes...a gabfest. They decided to have a gabfest and they only *just* went to bed."
"Oh. Find out anything interesting?"
"Yeah, seems like you three have some competition for your title."
"WHAT?!?" Sirius said almost falling out of his chair.
"Yeah, of course they talked about you three," Sandry started, "but then they talked a lot about..." She bit her lip. "Oh what was his name? Oh yes, Amos Diggory." When she said this Sirius and James fell out of their chairs.
"Diggory? Hufflepuff's pretty boy?" Sirius said in shock.
"Yeah. I can't say I blame them, he *is* pretty cute." This shocked them all more.
"Lets get this prank done because I need sleep."
"Yeah."
The boys and Sandry walked out of the common room and walked up a few stairs to the Ancient Ruins classroom. Sandry glanced around and took out her wand. She followed the boys in and watched them do their handy work. She walked over to his desk and glanced down at the many papers scattered on the top of it. On the top was a letter from the Ministry. Under that was the test he had given his third year class. Sighing, she said a few charms placed a few Dungbombs in Rattenburgs drawer. They all did a few more things to the large room and then just as they were getting ready to leave Remus said, "Hey, Sandry, what about that charm Lily showed you?"
"What charm? Oh yeah that one." She took out her wand again and pointing it at the room she said, "Aucune Preuve." A light green mist came out of her wand and covered the whole classroom.
"What did it do?"
"It erased all proof of us being there, without getting rid of the pranks," Sandry explained.
"Wow, that's nifty." Everyone nodded in agreement. The five students walked back us to Gryffindor Tower. Once they got there, the boys went up to the 6th year boys dorm, while Sandry headed back to her dorm.
The next morning when everyone was sitting in the Great Hall eating breakfast, Sirius, James, and Sandry walked in snickering. No one in the hall knew why, but waited eagerly for what ever they did to go off.
"I can't wait until Ancient Ruins," Sandry sang as the three of them slid into their seats.
"Who are you and what have you done with my cousin?" Lily asked, dropping the roll she had in her hand. Suddenly a look realization passed over her face. "Oh no, what did you do?"
"Just rigged a bit of a surprise for Professor Rattenburg," Sirius said piling food onto his plate.
"I don't want to know."
"Morning everyone," Remus said, sitting across from Lily.
"Where's Pete?" James asked him looking around for the short blonde haired boy.
"He *was* right behind me."Remus looked behind him. "Dunno, where he went."
"Oh well." Sirius said shrugging. Just then about hundred owls flew into the Great Hall, making Sandry jump out of her skin.
"COULD YOU NOT DO THAT?" A lot of people looked at her confused.
"WHAT?"
She yelled in their direction. Then, shaking herself, she looked up for her own owl, Giselle. (A/N: Kristin, if you're laughing, STOP!)
"Uh, Sandry, what was that about?"
"What? Oh *that*...well, you see, I don't like being surprised and, well, when they all came in, in a big flock like that it scared me out of my skin." The table shook theirs head like they understood.
Giselle flew over to their table, accompanied by Aries, James' owl, and Romulus, Remus' owl. The three owls dropped whatever it was they were carrying onto their respective owners plates and flew away.
"I swear that owl has to learn not drop this stuff in my eggs!" James said angrily while taking his letter out of his eggs and wiping it off.
"Come on, Lily, we've got to get to Ancient Ruins!" Sandry exclaimed pulling on Lily's arm.
"Yeah, Lils, we're going to be late," Remus added. "Well, personally, I don't want to know what you-" the rest of her sentence was muffled by Sandry's hand.
"Shh!" Sandry said as they entered Rattenburg's classroom.
"I expect no talking from you three today."
"Of course, professor," Remus said as the three of them sat in the only empty seats. Which, as fate would have it, were in the front of the room...
A/N: There! We've made it though another chapter...or I made it though because you didn't write it, I did. And you weren't threatened with scissors, *I* was. I was reading this through and it kinda confused me a bit, so I'm sorry if that happens to anyone else! You know what enough of *my* babble...it's time for you to babble in a review, so please REVIEW!
