James and Sirius sat in one of the many Kitchens located in the Potter Mansion. "I'm bored," Sirius declared.

"Me too," James agreed leaning back in his chair.

"I'm bored," Sirius said again.

"Me too," James said putting his feet on the table.

"I'm bored," Sirius said for the third time.

"Me too," James answered twirling his wand between his fingers.

"I'm bored," Sirius said sighing.

"Me too," James said.

"I'm bored," Sirius said.

Irritated James yelled, "Shut up!"

"Fine, how is Lily?" Sirius asked.

"I don't know," James said.

"I mean do you still like her, have an obsession for her, and drool every time you see her?" Sirius asked.

"First of all I don't drool every time I see her," James pointed out, "I don't have an obsession and I don't like her I love her!"

Sirius looked taken aback, "Prongs, I didn't mean for you to get all passionate and romantic. We are not in some kind of romance story so please keep it to a minimum!"

James seemed to calm down after a while and excused himself to get them ice cream. He returned with Sirius' -usual five scoops of chocolate covered in chocolate fudge- in one hand and vanilla ice cream with caramel in the other hand. Sirius grabbed his ice cream and began to eat it nonstop for ten minutes. James sat down and began to slowly eat his ice cream. When they had finished there was a moment of silence. "I'm bored," Sirius sighed.

(A/n: just a little marauder summer time because I am in a random mood)

Lily opened her window and an owl flew in. It dropped a note on her bed before resting on her window sill. Lily opened the letter and read:

Dear Lily,

Congratulations on making head girl! I'm head boy! Did you hear about the attack? It left two students from our school in St. Mungos and a family injured. I hope it wasn't you although I am pretty sure it said pureblood (no offence.) We have to meet on the train to discuss our duties. Also I'd like to plan a Christmas Ball this year so that might take a while!

From,

James Potter

The sides of Lily's mouth tugged upwards as she finished the letter. She thought about the letter. He seemed to have tried to go through a self-improvement program. Or so it seemed by reading the letter. Maybe this year she might give him a chance. Not that she wanted to go out with Potter. Why would she? Lily snapped out of her thoughts long enough to realize the owl was growing impatient waiting for a reply. She turned over James' letter and wrote a back. She congratulated him and agreed to meeting up with him on the train. After she sent out the letter she sat on her bed. She couldn't wait for the week to end and for Hogwarts to start up again.

Katy and Emma were sitting on Emma's bed playing exploding snap. "I am so going to win," Emma bragged.

Katy glared because they were both certain Emma would in fact win. Just then an explosion occurred singing off half of Emma's eyebrow. Katy laughed so hard she fell off the bed. "It's not funny," Emma whined.

"Yes it is," Katy said from her position on the ground.

All of a sudden they heard the door to the house being thrown open and several people rushing in. They could hear Emma's parent's fighting off people. Katy and Emma pulled out their wands and rushed to the main level. Several Death Eaters were attacking the house. Their was a thump and Fabian fell to the floor dead. Emma cried out in despair and Katy shot a spell at the Death Eater who had killed Fabian. Gideon began to take on three Death Eaters at once. Ryan was fighting two Death Eaters and Emma's parents were also taking on four. Emma and Katy each took on a Death Eater. Once they had stunned their opponent they moved on to help Ryan and Gideon. There was another blinding green light and Gideon fell to the ground. Tears poured down Emma's face. She sat down next to her dead brothers and cried. Katy stood in front of Emma and fought off any Death Eaters who were trying to hurt Emma. "Crucio," one of them yelled.

The spell hit Katy and she fell to the ground in pain. Her body began to stretch and move into painful positions, twitching about. She felt as if one thousand knives were plunging into her skin repeatedly. "Stupefy," Emma yelled aiming at the offending Death Eater.

The Death Eater froze and Katy tried to get up. She let out a cry of pain and fell back down. Emma bent down to help her injured friend and was hit by Crucio. She screamed and fell over. She felt immense pain everywhere in her body. She screamed so loudly that Ryan got distracted allowing his opponent to kill him with a simple spell. With tears streaming down Emma's face she tried to fight off the curse. The pain overtook her and she was unconscious within a minute. The Death Eater showed no sympathy and continued on with the curse. "Crucio," another Death Eater aimed at Katy.

She dodged the spell and stunned two Death Eaters. "Crucio," the same Death Eater called.

This time Katy wasn't as lucky. She fell to the ground screaming, her body twitching uncontrollably. She screamed one last time and let unconsciousness take over her as it had Emma. Emma's parents fought on and when the Aurors had finally arrived all the Death Eaters were gone. They lifted Emma and Katy onto stretchers and apparated to St. Mungos. The dead bodies of the three Prewitt brothers were taken away and the parents were left to weep in sorrow. A week passed by and neither Katy nor Emma had awoken.

Emma's POV

I opened my eyes and looked around. I was surrounded by healors moving in and out of the room. My parents, Molly, Arthur, the Weasleys, Charlie, Bill, and Percy sat around me. They looked as if someone had just died. And then it hit me. My brothers. Dead. I wouldn't ever get to talk to Ryan, Gideon, or Fabian again. Gideon and Fabian had just arrived home earlier that day. And Ryan and I hardly ever got the chance to talk anymore. But now there wouldn't be anymore chances to talk to them. I felt something wet hit my cheek. I reached a hand up to my cheek. It was wet. I looked up to see if something had spilled on me. Then I touched my eyes. I was crying. I wasn't the only one who realized Bill pointed to me and my family crowded around me. "Emma?" my mom whispered.

"Mum," I managed to say.

"We thought you were going to die," She said crying.

"It's okay, mum, I'm here," I said.

My dad kissed me on the forehead and said, "I am going to go get a Healer to look at you."

"Okay," I said.

There was stirring and someone whispered, "Emma? Mrs. Prewitt?"

It was Katy. "Katy?" I asked her.

"Yes, what happened?" she asked.

"You don't remember?" I asked her worriedly.

"All I remember was playing exploding snap," Katy said.

The Healor who had just walked in the room smiled sadly, "There was an attack Ryan, Gideon, and Fabian Prewitt were killed, and you were placed under an unforgivable."

Katy let out a cry of despair, "I am so sorry Emma!"

"I know," was all I could say.

The Healor gave us each a sleeping potion. "Drink this, you'll miss the train, but if your well enough in two days I'll dismiss you and you can go to Hogwarts."

We drank the potion and peaceful sleep took over me.
