When the two Marauders entered the kitchen, they were met by a barren sight. There were no exceedingly helpful house elves rushing up to take their orders or steaming pots and pans. It was empty. In the far corner, a tumbleweed rolled by, and an eerie howl followed. At this, Sirius turned and cuffed the back of Remus' head.
"No howling," he snapped.
Remus glared in his direction. "I was merely trying to set the mood."
To this, Sirius just shook his head, walking further into the kitchen and rummaging through the cupboards. Spoons, pots, pointy knives, and various other kitchen utensils went flying over his shoulder, but no apples could be found. Scowling, Sirius backed away.
"What happened to all the food?" Sirius demanded.
Carefully stepping over a butcher knife, Remus shrugged. "The house elves ate it all?"
"Greedy buggers."
CLANK. CLANK.
Remus jumped. "What was that?"
"What was what?" Sirius asked, looking over his shoulder.
"That noise! ...It sounded like-"
"Remus?"
"Yes Sirius?"
"Can suits of armor walk?"
Frowning at the question, Remus gave Sirius a skeptical look. "No... Not normally."
"Then I'm guessing that they shouldn't be able tickle a pear either..."
"What are you talking about-"
CLANK.
Remus turned around, coming face to face with the black knight from the hall. It held the sword it was carrying high above its head, ready to swing.
"Sirius?"
"Yes Remus?"
"Should we run?"
"I think so," Sirius said, taking a few cautious steps backward.
With no further delay, the two Marauders ran toward the door, narrowly missing the wide swing of the knight's sword. Running for their lives down the corridors, Remus and Sirius didn't even think to look back. They could tell the knight was following by the loud CLANK CLANK CLANK.
One way or another I'm gonna find ya
I'm gonna getcha getcha getcha getcha
One way or another I'm gonna win ya
I'm gonna getcha getcha getcha getcha
One way or another I'm gonna see ya
I'm gonna meetcha meetcha meetcha meetcha
They ducked into a nearby classroom, breathing heavily and backing up against the far wall. The CLANKing passed, and they both let out a sigh, relaxing slightly until the creak of metal sounded behind them. Turning, they were met with the flash of a silver.
One way or another I'm gonna lose ya
I'm gonna give you the slip, a slip of the lip or another
I'm gonna lose ya, I'm gonna trick ya
Rushing out of the room, they darted into the hallway. Sirius stopped for a moment, glancing around, then grabbed Remus by the wrist, and pulled him into another room. The knight followed suit. When the boys came to another door, they opened it without question, entering the same hallway, just a few doors down from where they had entered the last room. Looking to their left, they saw the door beside them open, revealing the black knight. Remus gasped loudly, while Sirius pulled him on down the hall.
One way or another I'm gonna getcha, I'll getcha, I'll getcha getcha
getcha getcha
Tapping the statue of the one-eyed witch with the end of his wand, Sirius muttered "Dissendium" before the two scrambled inside the passage. They heard the knight pass by. When it didn't appear behind them, they finally relaxed. For now, it seemed they would be safe.
"I knew there was something weird about the suit of armor."
"Shut up, Remus."
