A/N: Here's a random one for you all.

Harry was watching the Muggle news simply because he had nothing better to do. It would still be a few days before he left for the Quidditch Cup with the Weasleys, and he had already finished all of his summer homework. Therefore, he had nothing to entertain him but his thoughts.
Harry had been thinking about Sirius a lot lately. They had been exchanging letters since school let out, but now Harry hadn't heard from his godfather in over a week. He wondered how he was doing.
Harry yawned as the anchorman finished up a story about a woman in Bristol with one hundred cats. It was time to go to bed. Harry rubbed his eyes and was about to turn the television off when a new story caught his attention: "Escaped convict Sirius Black has recently been spotted in Cancun, Mexico, openly partying and drinking." Harry's jaw dropped in shock. He turned up the volume as a photo of Sirius in what looked like a bar with a bottle of tequila in each hand and a scantily-clad girl on each arm popped up on the screen. The anchorman continued his story: "An eyewitness claims that the vicious murderer Black can't hold his alcohol, but is 'a monster in the sack.' Another eyewitness reports seeing Black outrun Mexican authorities on a stolen motorcycle whilst completely naked and singing 'I've Got a Lovely Bunch of Coconuts.' BBC4 will keep you updated on the search for Sirius Black."
Harry stared in shock at the TV. For a moment he wasn't sure if it was a real story or a prank, but then he thought back to the postcard he had recently received from Sirius which displayed a picture of a big-breasted, bikini-clad woman with the message "Wish you were her!" in bold letters. Yes, Harry thought, that was definitely Sirius.
