"Guys, stop it! The muggles are going to hear us!"
Inside a jam-packed cinema, full of little kids with toy swords, awkward teens with nerdy glasses and thick paperbacks, mothers looking exasperated at their husbands who where even more excited than their children, a film was premiering.
"Come on Remus, have some fun!"
Someone's popcorn flew into the air and was bounced onto somebody's head and finally settled on a small child's face.
"Yeah Remus."
Somehow a lightsaber tried to detach from a boys arm but the kid clung on and started to hit thin air.
"Owowowo! That hurt!"
"Come on Peter, shut up! Stop being a wimp!"
The kids lightsaber was lifted up and up into the air before being thrown at a snogging couple in the back row, both with long platinum blonde hair separating them so everyone could see their faces was smeared with bright red lipstick.
"Wait a min Prongs."
There was a sudden shuffling then a crash but the theatre was so loud nobody noticed.
What Padfoot?"
"Isn't that Narcissa and Lucius?"
"Who?"
"Come on James! Sirius' cousin and her boyfriend Lucius, who seems to be permanently attached to her?
"Errrrrr.. Nope."
"The boy who called lily a mudblood?"
"Which one? Hahaha!"
There was a quiet (comparing to the rest of the room) chuckle.
"I know, Prongs,"
"What, Padfoot?"
"The snooty prefect who told on us when we tried to destroy the Slytherin common room?
"Wait? Snooty Lucius? The guy who stopped Wormtail swearing at the fat lady? And the common room? And when I tried to set snivellus on fire?"
"Yes James that's him James"
"Oh merlin!"
"I know let me hex him, that'll teach him for snogging my cousin."
"No."
"wait, what? James, this is really out of character."
"James, are you OK James?"
"No Wormtail I'm fine. But we shouldn't hex him. Go back a bit."
Again there was a shuffling of steps and grunts and if you listened very very carefully you could hear someone being trampled underfoot.
"Ow! That hurt!"
"Stop being such a baby! Come on Prongs, what's next."
"So we all need to be very very quiet"
A few seconds later, the couple were snogging again but suddenly broke apart when they heard a voice.
"Ooooooooooooh Luciusssss…."
Lucius suddenly broke in a sweat.
"My Lord?"
"Yessssssssss. I command you to stand up and say the words…."
"What my Lord, anything" the whole theatre - those who could be bothered to look - saw a teenage boy stand up, on top of his seat and say the words…
"THE MOST AMAZING PEOPLE IN THE WORLD ARE JAMES POTTER, REMUS LUPIN AND SIRIUS BLACK! Wait what?"
Then Narcissa realised what was going on.
"Sirius! James! Remus! I bet your creepy friend is here too. Where are you?"
Both Lucius and Narcissa turned round looking for them, one shrieking their heads off and the other trying to make the other shut up.
"Oh shut it Lu! Come on what type of a wizard are you! You actually thought he would tell you to stand up in a cinema full of muggles and say Sirius is the best?! You are such a baby!"
"It's not fair! You're stupid cousin and his friends used the Imperius curse! They should be in prison!"
"Used the Imperius curse? Should go to prison? You've killed people!"
" It's not my fault! The dark lord made me do it!"
"Oh I'm sure he did!"
They were too busy with each other to notice members of staff were coming towards them.
"Excuse me madam, sir," they said, gesturing to Narcissa and Lucius, "please may you leave, you are disturbing everyone else. If you do not leave willingly, you will be escorted off the premises and will be banned from this particular site for a year." Narcissa and Lucius looked at each other, Lucius touched his back pocket, which you could see a wand sticking out of, but Narcissa grabbed his hand and dragged him out of the theatre.
"Now, people, settle down, the movie will begin shortly." there was an uproar of cheering and whooping before relative quietness and there was a quiet shuffle.
"Guys? Why didn't I get put in?"
"Maybe because you're not the best person in the world?"
"Sirius! That's mean. There wasn't enough space for four Peter. Don't worry about it, they'll be space next time."
"OK thanks moony"
"C'mon ladies, stop gossiping, we need to find some seats."
"OK, ummmmm, I got it, prime pickings, middle of cinema, right there rowwww, errrr h I think."
"Thanks Padfoot"
There was even more shuffling then somehow the seats sank down as if someone was sitting there.
"Yeesssss, got it! "
"Without paying too!"
"Which was an extremely immature and ridiculous idea and it was very irresponsible, James. Honestly, if something goes wrong, I'm going to have to say, I told you so,"
"Guys, let's take the cloak off, we're here now and I'll just stuff it in my bag and it'll be back with McGonagall before she knew it was ever gone."
"OK I'm up for that. Oooh, maybe we can spot some ladies here too."
"Fine, you two imbeciles, I suppose you'll explain to the row behind how we magically appeared"
"Don't worry about that Remus, they're all um….."
"Snogging Wormtail, snogging's the word."
"OK fine, but we have to time it very-"
In a millisecond, 4 boys appeared in the seats. Sirius (Padfoot), Remus (Moony), Peter (Wormtail) and last but definitely not least, James- Prongs.
The marauders.
"See Remus," said Sirius, "nobody knows. "
"Nobody?" a voice said behind them. "Nobody knows that you four jerks decided to not pay like any other normal human being, and use your stupid invisibility cloak, which by the way is confiscated and should be with McGonagall and I have no idea how you got it out, but ARE YOU INSANE? and James, you're in my seat. "
"Nice to see you too," sighed James, " Lily."
