A/N: Ok, I told you all I had chapter 4 already written out. I know I said back in Chapter 3 that this Chapter was going to be pretty short but an idea struck me and so I added it in making the chapter about average length instead of super short.
As Peter ran back to the Gryffindor common room, he was, suddenly stopped by none other than Lucius Malfoy.
"Where you going Pettigrew?"
Peter squeaked at the site of Malfoy with Crabbe and Goyle flanking him. The two looked especially menacing today, like they hadn't pummeled someone in weeks. Which they hadn't since Peter started hanging with James, Sirius, and Remus.
"I hope you're not in a hurry," continued Malfoy taking a step closer so that he was towering over poor little Peter. Peter stepped back fumbling with his wand.
"A-abigremos," stuttered Peter.
"Are you actually trying to cast a spell?" scoffed Malfoy.
"Abigremos!" stated Peter louder and more firmly. Instantly Malfoy began belching slugs. This greatly confused Crabbe and Goyle, but not for long, when they decide to go at Peter together.
Peter instantly thought of Sirius' advice, 'When it comes to Crabbe and Goyle RUN!' and that's exactly what he did. Peter ran all the way back to Transfiguration Class forgetting all about his book.
(A/N: Real quick one here. I am repeating a little bit of Chapter 4 because this is one of those at the same moment scenes. This happened while Peter was facing Malfoy.)
Peter then turned and started to run back to the Gryffindor Common Room.
"What transfiguration spell?" asked Remus.
"Common we'll show you," answered James, "You see Sirius and I came across a useful Transfiguration spell while you were out."
"Are you serious? He actually picked up a book?" asked Remus in disbelief pointing at Sirius.
"He's not Sirius, I am," stated Sirius, "And yes, I do pick up a book – occasionally."
"The spell we found will turn anything into a mouse," continued James, "We thought it would give the girls a scare. Plus it'll keep McGonagall busy long enough for Peter to get his book."
"Alright, what's the spell?"
"Mutadmus."
"Then let's go," agreed Remus pulling out his wand as the three entered the classroom.
"Mutadmus," whispered Remus turning a desk into a mouse.
"Mutadmus," whispered Sirius and James each turning a pair of chairs into mice.
"Mischief managed," mumbled Remus putting his wand up watching the mice do their work.
"Eeeeekkkkk!" shrieked a girl spotting the mouse. She quickly clambered up onto a chair followed in suit by her surrounding friends.
"What is going on here?" demanded Professor McGonagall.
"A-A mouse," the girl explained.
"Nothing that can't be easily remedied," answered Professor McGonagall pulling out her wand.
"Professor," spoke up Lily unaffected by the mice, "I think the mice are a desk and a set of chairs, a set is missing."
"Well, that complicates things a bit," sighed McGonagall.
McGonagall searched for the mice, which led to a chase all over the room causing girls to shriek and others to climb on top of the furniture. It was all indeed a quite humorous scene. By the time Peter came into the room, McGonagall had already transformed two of the mice into chairs and was turning the last mouse back into a desk.
"That was quite entertaining," smiled Sirius, "We'll have to do it again some time."
"Where's the book Peter?" asked James noticing that he was back without the book.
"I…" gasped Peter holding a stitch in his side.
"You didn't get the book?" asked Sirius in disgust.
"No – Malfoy," panted Peter, "I – faced – Malfoy!"
"What I wouldn't give to have seem Malfoy belching up those slugs. Bleh!" commented Sirius pretending to belch up a slug.
"And those blank looks that Crabbe and Goyle had on their faces as Peter dashed away," added James getting a stupid blank look on his face. The four laughed.
"You know," said Sirius, "We've got to do it to Malfoy again so we can all see it."
"You're right my friend we should make a plan of it." James agreed.
"Are you two serious?" asked Remus.
"No I'm James," answered James.
"You two know what I meant," sighed Remus.
"Well, yeah," answered Sirius, "Wouldn't it be great to see something like that happen to Malfoy?"
(A/N: Lucius Malfoy in previous weeks has proven himself to be a jerk. Same with Snape who I haven't brought up yet but will soon. Sooner than you think even. Well back to the fic.)
"Of course, but couldn't we get into trouble?" asked Remus.
"Not if we plan it right," answered James.
"All right then," agreed Remus.
"What about you Peter?" asked James.
"I – I don't know," shied away Peter.
"Aw, common Peter, don't be such a wuss, I know you want to see Malfoy get it again as much as the rest of us," pushed Sirius.
"All – All right," agreed Peter shakily.
A/N: Time for my little closing note. So what did you all think? I'll try to get chapter 5 up as soon as I can. I'm starting exams, which are taking up much of my time. I wanted to add that I'll probably update my fic "Ron in Love" first because I finally got over the writes block for it.
