I currently have an obsession with the Marauders, and so I thought I'd try my hands at a little writing.

Flames? Welcome!

Favorites? Loved!

Reviews? Adored!

Pms? Sure!

If I owned Harry Potter I wouldn't be writing a fanfiction of it right now.

Sirius finds himself wandering through the halls whistling, not a care in the world. He stops at the Fat Lady,

"Sirius is lovely" He shouts, it took him five years to convince prefects to change the password to it.

The painting flings forwards and Sirius climbs in the passage. Up the stairs and into the fifth year dormitory. He looks around, Peter and James are in bed, Remus is gone? He looks around. It's not a full moon, Sirius would've been in the Shrieking Shack. He shrugs it off and climbs into bed. Letting sleep consume him.

--

Sirius wakes up, flings outta bed and shouts, "Goodmorning, Marauders!"

Silence welcomes him. Odd. Sirius walks out of the dorm, wondering where the others are.

--

Sirius skids to a stop, when did he get here? From the looks of it he's on the third floor, western side, close to Mcgonagall's class. He was about to go back to the dorm when Peeves comes bounding out of the walls, he jumps around Sirius a few times then stops.

"Oopsie whoopsie! Skipping class are we? Should I yell for Filchy Wilchy?" He sings.

Sirius looks at him, "But I just woke up!"

Peeves laughs, "That means you slept in!"

-=-

"I am appalled, Mr. Black!" Mcgonagall's voice snaps him out of whatever trance he was in.

"Oh, yeah me too, but what did I do?" He says, confused.

That seems to make her even more angry, her face looks as bright as a tomato, "That is it! I have absolutely no idea what has gotten into you lately! Detention, every weekend at six, sharp!"

And with one swoosh of her robes she struts out of the classroom, leaving a very confused Sirius.

"But, what did I do?"

-=-

After that episode with Mcgonagall, Sirius finds himself back in the passageway to Gryffindor common room, he looks around the red and golden room, he spots James, he's playing a round of exploding snap with Pete. A grin instantly spreads on his face.

"Heya, mate!" Sirius runs over.

James glares at him, Sirius' smile wipes off his face, "Uh, mate, what'd I do?"

James scoffs, "Yeah, right, you totally forgot what happened!"

Sirius strains to think of what he did, "Uh… Did I spill my drink on your homework?" He asks lamely.

James' face fills with anger, "You know what you did, Black!" James practically spits out his name.

"Black? Uh, Prong-" Sirius starts.

"NO! You don't get to call me that!I am done with you! WE are done with you!" He shouts, "You are a selfish, self-centered, prat! You think the whole world revolves around you! You're a little insensitive twat! Giving away our secrets like they're candy! You, are a vile, selfish, slithering brat. I wish the Sorting Hat put you in Slytherin. You are just like your family. A true Black." His voice got quiet during the end, "Go away, don't talk to any of us again, especially Remus."

Sirius felt as if his breath was taken out of him, like the world stopped spinning, he shook his head to clear it and turned around. Determined for James not to see the tears that glazed his eyes.

"Wait!" Sirius stopped, listening, "Break the mirror, and try to get bad luck while doing it."

Sirius had to bite his tongue to keep himself from running to the dorm. As soon as he reached the door he made a bee-line to his bed, pulled the curtains closed and clutched his knees to his chest.

"It-it's fine, he di-didn't mean it." He bit his lip, why is he acting like this? His parents beat composure into him. Why can't he stop himself from shaking? Ignoring that it was six o'clock, he drifted off to sleep .

-=-

He opens his eyes, soft sunlight reaches him through the small cracks in the curtains. He sits up, last night's events filling his mind, he instantly feels dizzy. He peeks through the curtains on his left, where James sleeps next to the window, he's still asleep. He closes the curtains and looks out his right side, where Peter and Remus sleep, next to the bathroom, Pete's asleep, snoring softly. Remus is in his bed covered in bandages, Sirius quickly looks away.

What could've happened? Why do they hate Sirius so much? What did he do? His head explodes with so much pain that he gasps a little bit. His hands fling to his head. He opens the curtains, one hand still clenching his head, the other his wand.He climbs out of bed, his head throbbing. Then he struggles to make it to the bathroom, staggering like a drunk man. As soon as he's in he slams the door and locks it, sitting on the closed toilet seat. As soon as he thinks the pain is going away, it comes back full blast, like the cruciatus curse, he should know.

His head throbs with pain, his eyes bulging, he gasps and falls back into the tub.

--

"Hurry up, Black, no one cares what your dumb hair looks like!"

Sirius sits up and inwardly groans, rubbing his head, a small aching is still there, but it's mostly gone. He stands up and looks in the mirror, a huge bluish lump is starting to form on his head, he points his wand at it and mutters,

"Episkey"

The bruise turns back to a pale color and the bump goes back into his head. He staggers forwards, takes a deep breath and opens the door, an annoyed James stands there, he pushes past Sirius and slams the door.

Thank goodness it's a Saturday, so Sirius doesn't need to do anything. He inwardly sighs, laying back on his bed.

"Why'd you do it?" A small, sad, broken voice belonging to Remus.

Sirius forces himself to get up, ignoring the great pain and lights that flashes in his eyes.

"Do what?" He says.

When his vision clears, he can see Remus, sitting sadly on his bed, facing towards him, "Y-you know…"

Sirius' heart cracks at the sadness in his voice, "I am so sorry, but I don't know…"

Remus looks down staring at his hands, "Y-you know."

Sirius stands up, his vision swaying, "Please, please, just tell me what I did, I-I don't know"

"You told Snape about the knot."

-=-

Sirius gaped, how could he do such a thing, "I-I'm so, so, so, SO sorry!"

"Why, it's mighty alright m'boy, though I don't think I've met a student with as much manners as you, Sirius Black." Professor Slughorn picks up a book and walks away.

Sirius jumps up, looking around, he's in the dungeons, close to the Slytherin dormitorys, how did he get here, he was just talking to Remus! He strains his memory. Nothing! After Remus said that he just blacked out.

He adublily gasps, his headache is back, it feels as if his brain is exploding. He staggers, clenching his head. He trips over someone, his eyes are filled with colors, he can't see.

"Sorry!" He says, attempting to pick himself up.

"What are you doing!" A female voice speaks.

"I was, uh. Uhma umh, uh. Would you believe me if I said I don't know?"

The voice speaks again, "No, what are you doing! I'm a prefect! Answer me!"

Slowly his eyes go back into focus, fiery red hair, green walnut eyes, Lily Evans.

"I was going to say hi to my baby brother." He says.

She scoffs, "You two don't even talk to each other!"

"What are you doing here, Evans!" Sirius says, his head still aching horridly.

She glares at him, "Getting a couple ingredients for potions. Now what are you doing!"

Figures, "Fine, I was going to go to detention!"

She rolls her eyes, "Okay then. Stay out of trouble, or I'll give you a detention!"

She turns on her heel and walks away. Sirius sighs. What is happening to him?

-=- Great Hall, the next day

Sirius sits excluded from his frien- well more like ex-friends, feeling really lonely, sure he was surrounded by girls, cute ones too, but he couldn't bring himself to care. Owls start to fly in, to everyone but him, gasps are heard in the hall, during wars all news is usually news of deaths or whatnot. Then something happens, a large black regal owl swoops down on him, carrying a large letter, wrapped in gold and a wax Black symbol. He carefully opens it, knowing it'll bring the news of death.

Dear Sirius Orion Amour Black The Third,

Sirius hates his middle name, 'Orion' is His fathers, his father couldn't care less about Sirius, and 'Amour' Means love! Love! He really got lousy names.

Weregret to inform you that your grandfather, Acrturus Black has died due to 'a mysterious illness'

He isn't too sad about his grandfather, as he used to spank him with his cane, but 'a mysterious illness'! That means he died due to the little known, Black Madness. His mother always talked about it, saying that he and Bella would catch it. First you start to forget where you were, forget small things, or big things. Then the pain comes, headaches and such, next you start losing your appitite, then either you go insane (like Bellatrix) or you die.

Then he has a realization, memory loss, headaches, he has been having both of them. His eyes go wide.

He has caught the Black Madness.
