Ok and now back to the story...

Severus Snape walked along the corridor, his eyes darting nervously left and right. Something wasn't right and he could feel it. Potter and his gang had been waaay to quiet to past few days and he couldn't help but get a little worried. He looked around one last time and he snorted loudly which James had always said sounded like a pig but he always did it anyway to spite him, saying "Well, I guess Potter's lack of brains and wit has finally gotten to him" and grinning widely to himself stalked in the other direction, not noticing the not so little and pretty obvious to anyone who cared to look guy in the shadows.

Remus smirked, that had been easy. He was definitely very confident that their plan could be easily pulled off. After all, that guy didn't even bother to look closely at his surroundings! With that, he whistled in the secret marauder way and James, Peter and Sirius got out from the trap door in the ceiling. No, I should say that James and Sirius had jumped and landed both gracefully on the floor, with Peter stumbling along and falling flat on his face.

After Peter had finally managed to stand straight (which had taken some time), Remus whispered to them "He always goes this way every Thursday. At the end of the corridor there will be a dead end and we can trap him and curse him to oblivion there!". Sirius grinned and rubbed his hands together. "Finally, we get to dance the crazy victory dance! I wanted to do that for ages but just couldn't get the right occasion for it. Hmm.. why not do it now?" With that, he pulled Peter along in what seemed to be a cross between a cha-cha, jig and waltz.

Peter, of course being peter, then proceeded on vomiting on top of Sirius due to what the Marauders had christened the "What-happens-when-Sirius-goes- crazy-and-decides-to-dance-sickness". James and Remus sighed and proceeded on whacking the two on the head and dragging them along after Snape. Peter was hit so as to stop him from making a huge mess on the floor which no doubt they would have been made to clean by Filch for no good reason at all (or at least to them) while Sirius was hit 'cos he was just plain noisy and would have gave them away. You can see what normally happened during their pranks. Sirius and Peter were almost always out cold, leaving James and Remus to finish off the pranks. I wonder why.

As Snape turned corner after corner, James couldn't help but say to Remus " You know, I think Snivellus is lost, all the stress must have been too much for his peanut sized brain to take, now he can not even figure out the proper way." and gave a huge fake sigh. "Shut up Prongs, you don't want him to hear you!" Remus glared at him, and James just looked pitifully at him, causing Remus to glare even harder at him.

Finally: after a really,really,really long time;

Snape finally reached the dead end they had all been waiting for. However, James and Remus' hands were aching like crazy and were about to break. They fumbled with their wands due to their sore hands and got ready to say the spell at the right time. Sirius and Peter were definitely going on a diet after this was over.

(I dont know why on earth they had never wondered why Snape had went through all the trouble and time of going through the huge maze that is Hogwarts just to get to a dead end. Maybe they were really just plain stupid. I don't know, that's for you to decide!)

Then, to the utmost surprise of the boys, Snape sat down cross-legged on the floor and just did, well, nothing.

However, if the boys had listened to Snape's conversation with Lucius Malfoy, his best friend, earlier this afternoon, they would have known why. Snape had long found out about their plan as he had seen them in the library and we all know what happens when the marauders are in the library. Thus, he knew about everything and decided to just sit down and wait for the spell to be fired. However, he had come very prepared- (drum roll) He had brought a mirror. (excited gasp) (A/N: I know that you are wondering why on earth having a mirror helps but you will see why soon and so sorry for being so dramatic, couldnt resist.)

10 minutes later, after deciding that Snape was of no threat whatsoever to them (although I don't know what on earth led them to think that), they decided to take action and James and Remus together said the spell under their breath.

"Finally," thought Snape, his legs were aching and sitting cross-legged was definitely something he never wanted to do again. As he heard the spell whizzing across the air directly at him, time slowed and slowly but surely Snape ducked and raised the mirror in the direction of the spell and faced it at the group of boys behind him.(A/N: think matrix bullet time)

Bam! Snape's aim was true (although I don't know how on earth it could be that accurate) thanks to his 6 years of Quidditch training. A bright light filled the room and surrounded all four of the boys. However, before the bright light fully enclosed on all of the boys, Remus and James looked at each other and said simultaneously : "Oh, shit!"
