Wet Afternoons, Hidden Evenings and More Detentions
"That was a great show before guys, but what kind of name is the Marauders?" Rhia asked one fine spring Saturday afternoon.
"It is a very good name," replied Sirius.
"If believing that is what gets you through the day then we won't criticize it anymore," said Rory.
"Good, because we wouldn't have let you anyway," Remus replied.
They were all sitting in the common room after the Marauders display. The girls kept critcizing the name but the boys always stood by the fact they thought it was really cool.
"I'm sick of this let's go do something," James said
"Like what," Lily asked.
"Why don't we go explore the grounds?" Rory suggested. "It's a beautiful Saturday and we should be outside."
"But there isn't anything on the grounds to explore except the Forest and that's forbidden," Lily stated.
"So we bend a few school rules. It's not like we haven't done it before," Sirius said.
"He's right Lil. Besides who better to cause trouble than the Marauders and others," James said.
"'And Other's,'" Lily quoted. "Since when have we been the 'And Other's'."
"Since I said you were," James replied childishly.
"You are such a baby,"
"I'm not the one complaining because I don't have a cool name like the Marauders,"
"How many times do we have to tell you the name Marauders is not cool,"
"You just don't want to admit it beacause it is soooo very supertastically cool,"
Well, this argument was going on the other 4 people were talking about them.
"Do they always gotta bicker like this," asked Sirius.
"Yep," replied Rhia.
"Why?"
"Because there just to different from each other," Remus said.
"Oh," Sirius stated.
"Maybe if we start to head outside they'll stop bickering and follow us," Rory said in what she thought was an itellectual voice.
"Might as well try it," Rhia said.
The four of them started to walk out the portrait hole when they heard Lily and James calling after them. They didn't reply and kept walking. When they saw Lily and James come running after them they started bolting for the Grounds. Lily and James were wondering why their friends were fleeing from them but they still ran after them.
When Sirius, Remus, Rhia and Rory got under an old tree, they finally stopped to catch there breath. That's when Lily and James came up behind them and shot little squirts of water out of their wands. Rhia and Rory shreiked in surprise and Remus and Sirius jumped about a foot off the ground.
That ended up starting a huge water war between the six of them. They then split up into teams which consisted of girls against boys. The girls were winning by a little when the boys snuck up behind them and sent such powerful blasts of water that Lily, Rory and Rhia fell over onto their butts.
While they were on the ground, the girls took the oppurtunity to each kick one of the guys right where it hurt most. While the boys were sprawled on the ground groaning the girls soaked them and ran away before they could recover.
When they did recover the boys chased the girls all the way to the back of one of the empty greenhouses. The boys had them cornered but before they could fire the girls kicked them in the same spot and ran away. The second time took a little longer to recover than the first and by the time they did recover the girls were no where to be seen. They wandered the grounds until supper before going inside to eat. When the Marauders entered the Great Hall they found Rhia, Rory and Lily sitting at the Gryffindor table eating there supper and chatting along.
"We spent that entire time looking for you and you three were suffing your faces in the Great Hall," James said approaching the girls.
"One, we do not stuff our face and two, it's not our fault you idiots didn't think of looking inside for us," Rhia said.
"Fine, your forgiven. But after supper we are all playing 'hide and go seek' with you girls against us boys and we all hide in our little groups. Deal?" Sirius asked sticking out his hand waiting for it to be shooken.
"Deal," Rhia replied shaking his hand.
After supper was finished each team chose a team member to do rock, paper, scissors to determine who hides first and who seeks first. The team members chosen were Rhia from the girls and James from the boys. It was best 2 out of 3. First Rhia won then James won. It was up to the final round to determine who hid first.(A/N i don't know how to spell hid). Rhia chose paper and to her great dismay James chose paper as well. So in the very last round Rhia chose rock and James chose paper, making the Marauders the Hiders and the girls the seekers.
The girls counted up to 100 before going to look for the boys. They decided they should go to the Astronomy Tower first so they went there. When they didn't find the boys they went to the Dungeons. The Dungeons didn't have them there so they went back to Gryffindor Tower to form a plan on how to find them. When they arrived they found the common room was empty and remembered that everyone was probably at the ball the First Years weren't allowed to attend. They were about to start forminf there plan when they heard a sneeze.
"Bless you, Rhia," Lily said.
"I didn't sneeze, Rory did," Rhia replied.
"I didn't sneeze, Lily did," Rory replied.
"But I didn't sneeze," Lily said. "Do you think it's a ghost." Lily said terrified.
"Lily you're around ghosts all the time, why do you sound so frightened," Rhia said.
"Oh right," Lily giggled.
Then they heard a whisper that soundeda lot like: "Sirius shut up!"
The girls looked behind one of the scarlett couches in the corner to find Sirius, James and Remus all crowded together.
"Ha, we found you," Lily said.
"New rule!" Rhia said. "From now on your not allowed to hide in common rooms."
"Deal," Said Sirius.
"Okay we'll count to one hundred while you girls hide,"
The girls ran out of the common room while the boys started counting. As soon as they hit 100 they went to the Divination Tower to see if the girls were hiding there, but they weren't. They then went to the Great Hall to see if they snuck into the dance, but they got kicked out by the Head Boy. So after that they went to the Charms room to see is they were there. They were soon running out of ideas when Remus suggested going to the Library. They got to the Library to find it was closed, but a simple unlocking charm fixed that. When they got inside they started weaving through the boookshelves when Sirius spotted a book labeled 'Our Bodies Our Selves.'
"Hey guys look," Sirius said pointing at the book. He took it off the shelf only to find that where the book was before was an eye wide as a bouncy ball looking at him. He shrieked like a girl and ran to hide behind James.
"What's wrong with you Sirius, cat got your tongue," James teased.
"There is something behind that shelf that had big green eyes," Sirius squeaked.
"Aww, poor Sirius is afraid of an eye," Remus teased.
"If you saw it you'd be scared too," Sirius said.
"What ever you say Sirius," James laughed.
"I don't like you right now," Sirius said.
All of a sudden the girls jumped out from behind the bookshelf yelling like banshees.The boys all shreiked like 3-year-old girls and tripped and hitting the bookshelf and knocking it over and creating a domino effect with all the other shelves.. The girls then burst out laughing.
"You guys... shreiked... like little girls," Rhia said between laughs.
The other girls were hugging each other with tears in their eyes from luaghing so hard.
"That was so not funny," said Sirius.
"It was so very funny," replied Lily trying hard not to burst out laughing while she was speaking but failing miserably. "Exspecially after you saw my eye and shreiked like a little girl and hid behind James."
"What is going on in here," yelled Madam Hoone the Librarian. After spotting the red faced girls the horrified boys and the mess of her bookshelves, Madam Hoone sent them to Professor McGonagall's Office to be taken care of.
When they arrived there, Professor McGonagall told them they all had detention for one week and had to clean up the Library. She also took 30 points from Gryffindor each.
After that she took them all back to Gryffindor Tower and told them to go to bed. When Sirius protested that it was only 9:00pm McGonagall took away 10 more points and yelled at them to go to bed. They did and were surprised to here the portrait slam quite hard behind her even when they were in their dorms with the door closed. They all went to sleep hoping McGonagall would vent some of her anger before their detentions started.
A/N hope you like it and remember review, even if when you read this the story has been long forgotten for months still review because it makes my heart soar like a kite.
