Thanks to:
Passionflower: I ADORE Monty Python, I have all the films and their first series on DVD! ("You shot him!" "He came at me with a banana!"). As for the hiccups thing have you tried holding your breath? That usually works for me.
Elrohir lover: Yeah people always say violence isn't the solution but then I'm the girl that kicked a guy in the balls when he pinned her to a wall...damn that was a good feeling lol! And seriously man, I've gone a shade deeper then rouge over here, what a nice thing to say. Besides if you remember I wasn't sure if I was Bisexual or not, I definitely know I'm not fully gay because I still find some men just as attractive. Aye it's an athame, not a Boline so like you said the dagger is only for cutting air whereas the Boline is for cutting up herbs and stuff.
Avain: Lol, we're all saps inside (even the people who deny it). And after I wrote that scene I really wanted to make my own 'Moony's Bitch' cuddly lol!
Vasquez1987: Ah thank you, glad you liked the other stories just as much. Shame you weren't really into the film but here's a tip for you if you see the next one. The reason you probably didn't enjoy it is because you went expecting to see the book word for word but no matter how brilliant we may think that would be they just don't have the finances for such a project. So, we have to lean on the fact that it is 'based' on it and he (Alfonso) had to choose the absolutely dire facts from the book to work with. So as long as you learnt to separate the book and film it should be a tad more enjoyable.
Kessolli: Lmao, glad you like all the proverbial smoochies that's what were here for lol. And thank you, I do try to update quickly for you guys.
Hp-Azn: ROTFLMAO, go commit yourself you loony. If it helps I've had an idea for a little one shot with lil Siri involving bullying (Nothing dire but it will be a sweet Father/son fic I'm afraid).
Akuma Malick; Queen of Typo's: Aye, I really liked it and I'm an adamant Potter fan so that's got to be good. Seriously, you lot, I'm in a permanent state of blushiness when I read these reviews. You're all so sweet.
Yaoi-is-gay-13: I know man, it's like JK secretly put them in like that. They are the most likely couple EVER!
Elvencherry07: Lmao, aye it's shiny.
Legolas19: It really is quite pretty, sits quite nicely on racks on my wall.
Mira Black: I'll try and post a pic up. LMAO I love your idea about the action figures, that's in-genius. You know you can buy a Remus figure that turns into a werewolf that could be quite funny. Be even cooler if they made a Sirius toy that turned into a dog eh. Yeah, dedication. I feel so honoured (bows at Mira). Now I have to listen to my soundtrack too (runs off to play track 7).
Happo: Lmao how many floors we making then. That story about the sword was so funny, me and my brother always do things like that (If I go limp he gets miffed off because I'm a bit heavy so he gets squished by me hehe). And thank you, it's an honour to write for you guys.
Obviously oblivious: Do not worry, I was working out the statistics to this story and I have a feeling it's going to be my longest.
Adhara1: Why thank you, I do try my damned hardest to keep them as life- like as can be possible.

Chapter 18 – Blood Traitor
I still have that cloak. A little worn around the edges but I still have it for my more potent meetings and gatherings.
With Christmas over we were to return to Hogwarts, new gifts in hand and again we had to sneak Sirius past the hawk sighted eyes of his family who were seeing off their more treasured son...the fools.
They would never understand what Sirius was, the hero that he was because they didn't want that. They wanted a son who truly embraced the darker elements of the wizarding world.
IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII
(1975)
"This one's empty." Peter said as he dragged his trunk towards a far off compartment on the leviathan known as the Hogwarts express. Remus came up behind him, helping him to hoist the case up onto the racks along with his own as James and Sirius came up the train corridor in a state of horseplay.
"Just get into your compartment Potter." Lily Evans said as she strolled past them after tutting at them for blocking up most of the hallway.
"We apologise for them Lily." Remus said poking his head out as she smiled at him before carrying on her way.
"Oi, stop honing in on my man Evans." Sirius called from his place sprawled over one of the sofa like seats in the compartment as Lily raised an eyebrow.
"Yeah, like you're a challenge Black." She said dryly and James laughed at the affronted look Sirius's face.
"Cheeky bird." The dog animagi muttered as the girl carried on her way, Remus now shutting the door behind him as he crawled over onto Sirius's lap to look out the window waving one last time at his parents before he settled beside his mate.
James whistled in a twittering kind of way imitating a bird before he slouched back into his chair.
The train gave a lurch as it started and the four teenagers jumped up to wave happily out of the window at the parents slowly becoming smaller. When they rounded the corner they all settled back into their respectful places, Remus curling up next to Sirius who wrapped an arm around his shoulders to idly play with the tawny tresses hanging loosely around the werewolf's delicate features.
"So Petey, any girls while you were off?" Sirius teased and Peter pulled a face at him.
"Yeah because I'm such a stud and all." The rat animagi said sarcastically as James chuckled, turning from his window gazing to look at the smaller boy.
Sirius smiled at the other two once before turning his gaze down to the boy leaning his head against his chest and looking out the window.
"Anything interesting?" He whispered into the ear closet to him and Remus smiled a little.
"Just snow, but it looks like a muggle Christmas card scene." He laughed lightly until he shuffled forwards to idly draw a smiley face on the misted window. Smirking Sirius drew one next to it only this one had a cocky eyebrow raised.
"Ah, spitting image Padfoot." James said before he drew one next to theirs only it had glasses on this time. Then he drew a confused looking one and looked back at Peter.
"That one's you." He said with a wicked grin as Peter pouted.
"Looks like someone just asked me to make a potion." He quipped and Sirius chuckled as he drew a question mark over drawn Peter's head. Then Remus reached up and above all four images he wrote 'The Marauders were ere!'
"How truly pathetic, drawing on the windows like a bunch of Playskool students."
The four whipped their heads round to find a tall, lean blonde standing in the doorway. Lucius Malfoy looked down at them like they were something disgusting on his shoe and Sirius found himself growling slightly.
"No one asked your opinion you aristocratical prick." The dark teen said standing, his height just above Malfoy's and more menacing than the other boy's.
"Come on Malfoy, they really aren't worth our time." Severus Snape said as he came up behind the cold blonde.
"Why don't you listen to Snivellious eh Malfoy? Would be a terrible shame if that nose of yours was punched into an off-centre shape for the rest of your life don't you think?" Sirius growled and James stood up to stand beside him.
"I just came to see whether it was true or not." Malfoy drawled and Remus could feel a shiver of anxiety twist in his stomach. He had a feeling about what would happen next.
"See that –what- is true?" James said, eyes narrowing dangerously.
"Well we always knew Black was a disgrace to his name but I was curious to whether he truly had sunk to such depths of sharing his bed with a mongrel," Malfoy's steel blue eyes turned to Remus, "I always figured it would be you Potty, but he went for the filthy-blooded bitch instead."
"FUCK!" Sirius cried as he threw a fist right into Malfoy's chin causing the blonde to yelp in shock before he began to fight back. Yells broke out in the compartment and from Lucius's little group of Slytherins.
Snape moved to grab Lucius and James went for Sirius but they were both shrugged off as the boys lunged at one another again, crashing through another compartment causing the girls inside to scream.
"What's going on!" Lily Evans was running down the corridor towards the commotion and for once James simply forgot she was the girl he fancied.
"Help me!" He gasped out as he attempted to hold back a struggling Sirius, Remus running up and slipping his arms around his boyfriend's waist to help with the restraints. Lily quickly ran forwards grabbing Sirius's arm and the four struggled.
"Get off me!" Sirius growled lowly.
"Get him to my compartment." She panted and with a great effort (Peter now running on front of Sirius and pushing him against his chest) they took him to the Gryffindor girl's room. Remus managed one last glance to see Lucius stand, shrugging Snape's hand off viciously as he straightened off his robes and pushed his hair back into a respectiful position before finally Remus clicked the door shut behind him.
"What the –hell- was that about?" Lily said harshly as she stepped into her prefect mode. Remus looked down at his still fuming boyfriend before kneeling in front of him with a disapproving look on his face.
James turned to Lily and quickly whispered the events into her ear. She lost the hard glance instead replacing it with tired look.
"Black, I get that you care for Lupin but you have to understand that despite the fact you're a pureblood to –them- you are a traitor. You're going to have to learn to weather these comments, you can't keep losing you temper like this."
"I know, I know." The boy muffled into his hands that he had put over his face before he slid them down to rest them round his neck as he looked at Remus.
"I am sorry love. I just...just...ugh!"
After frowning for a few more moments the werewolf sighed and reached up to rest a hand on Sirius's cheek.
"I know love but it's like Lily said, you're going to –have- to control yourself. Shrug off the comments."
"But he called you a..."
"I know what he called me but then he's a foul twisted git isn't he."
There was silence in the room until James sniggered. Everyone turned to him.
"Sorry, I just love it when Remus's swears. He's always so proper that it just seems funny in his little English accent." He grinned and Lily rolled her eyes as she groaned.
"You're a berk." She said simply making everyone else snigger.
Suddenly a mousy-haired girl piped up from her seat.
"You two are so cute." She said teasing the two teenage boys and everyone else chuckled.
"Thank you Alice." Remus said smiling as Sirius winked at her. As everyone else settled for talking James stuck his head out to check down the corridor.
"Looks like they've buggered off...Shall we lads?"
Nodding the Marauders gathered themselves, Sirius apologising again to the girls who simply waved it off. As they made their way back to their compartment Lily suddenly called out to the boys.
"By the way I think you're safe. Malfoy has too much pride to admit that he was beating up by a poof."
"Who you calling a poof!" Sirius said whipping round but he was dragged into the compartment before more commotion broke out.
IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII
The four boys looked round for a spare carriage and found it, racing to it in a flurry of laughter as they raced one another.
"Mwha Window seat!" Sirius cried as he bounced into lightly lit carriage. Remus, laughing lightly bounced in next to him resulting in collapsing on top of his laughing boyfriend. James clambered in and with an exaggerated wiggle of his backside he squeezed in between Remus and the side of the inner carriage.
Peter strolled in, shaking his head as the three argued about space and took the large seat opposite them.
"If you're so squashed sit next to Wormtail." Sirius said with a poke at his best friend's arm who simply returned the gesture.
"I like –this- space better." James retorted and a great deal of the journey was spent like this.
Remus turned to look at his boyfriend and suddenly frowned.
"You have a bruise forming on your cheek." He said running a soft finger down the blue blemish forming near Sirius's eye. The dog animagi closed his eyes at the feeling of Remus's fingers running down his face. James pulled a face and jumped over to sit next to Peter complaining about 'getting mushy.'
"Yeah well I think Malfoy may have a few more then me." Sirius said, smiling a little although wincing slightly as the movement caused a dull throb to come from the bruise.
Remus leant up and kissed it gently before he traced his lips down further until after a brief moment of gazing into one another's eyes they let them close and kissed deeply, hands reaching up to cup faces.
"Oh bloody hell." James muttered as he lowered his face into his hands, shaking his head and Peter pretended to find something incredibly interesting outside.
Sirius deepened the kiss with a small smile pulling at the side of his mouth and Remus, equally fighting off a smirk, twined their legs together as the carriage continued to rock on its way up to Hogwarts.
