A/N: Thanks to anyone who reviewed. I know I put chapters up really fast, but thats because I have nothing better than to write and read and seeing as how all of the books i start reading interupt my writing, I spend my time writing. So I'm up to writing a chapter almost every day, and i post them as soon as i get finished. So you can expect atleast one or two more this week, but then i'm leaving on a trip and it will be a while.

Sirius glanced around the bedroom. He was trying to think up his first plan of action for his and Remus's 'Marauders War'. He was beginning to worry. What Remus said was true, all of the good pranks the Marauders had done was formulated by Remus and carried out by the others, so Sirius had no idea where to start.

The room was clearly split down the middle. On one side was old quiditch team posters on the wall and a green comforter, signifying the Irish team, on the single bed. The floor was littered with robes, socks, underware and many things that were burried too well to be identifyed. This was obviously Sirius's side. Remus's side, however, had a rather tidy double bed with deep crimson sheets neatly made up. The floor was devoid of clutter, except for the occasional book. Against the wall, was a book-case with several old, battered, but clearly precious tomes.

Sirius was just thinking about starting off simple and disaranging Remus's preciously organized book-case when he heard two identicle voices snickering as they passed down the hall. Sirius, hit by a sudden idea, jumped from the bed, ran to the door, and snatched it open. He reached out just in time to grab two collars and jerk their occupants into the room. Shutting the door with a snap, he turned to face the Twins with a mad gleam in his eye that made the two huddle together slightly.

"Oy!" Fred bellowed, "Whats the big idea? You nearly jerked our heads off!" George nodded in agreement.

"Don't get you knickers in a twist! I wanted to ask you something... prankster to prankster?" The eyes Sirius suspiciously but nodded." Great! Now, who plans your pranks? I'm in the market for assistance in the planning and carrying out of my pranks."

The Twins shared identical grins that portrayed slight evil-ness."Well, you just happen to be looking at the expert planners! The only reason that you Marauders are still the undesputed title holders of the largest number of detentions is because we, my dear friend, are smarter!" Fred looked uncertainly at his brother, who added, "Plus, it helps to be identical because one can be setting up while the other provides an Alibi and when they go to check it out we simply use our knowledge of secret passages to head them off and pretend to be the other... really helpful it is."

Sirius was getting fed up with their stalling. "Just help me! Moony is smarter than all of us combined and will outprank me any day! I need your assistance to plan some good pranks. Help me please?"

Fred and George turned away and confered hurridly and turned back. George spoke up. "Ok, deal. But theres one term."

Fred took over. "We have to be able to use whatever tactics are necessary and not get in trouble for anything! Anyone asks, you planned and executed everything alone, we had no prior knowledge of your actions. Got it?"

Sirius nodded eagerly. "Perfect!" The three shook hands. "Now, where to begin?"

Remus was sitting in the drawing room with his back to the door. The floor in front of him was littered with balled up pieced of parchment as he planned out his first prank. It wasn't going so well. He had plenty of ideas, but the problem was, he had always planned pranks with atleast two participants, it was hard to carry out a plan of action alone. What I need, He thought, Is an accomplice. Someone who can help me set up and spy on the opposition. At that moment, Tonks walked through the door. The sight that she met was quite strange.

Remus, startled by the door opening, had thrown himself on top of his scattered parchment pieces. "Oh Tonks, its only you." He was struck by a sudden thought. "Tonks, er, would you perhaps be interested in spying on Sirius for me? Nothing to cloak and dagger, just ask around about him. Check up on who he's been talking to, that sort of stuff?"

Tonks looked at him like he was mad. "Remus... there are only eight people staying here now, nine counting myself. What am I going to do?"

"Well, you could start by pretending to be neutral... or even better!" His face lit up with a sly grin. "You can pretend to be spying on me for Sirius, get him to tell you everything,and then report back to me!"

Tonks looked startled. "Slow down, maniac! How about I just ask around and see who's been talking to him? They might be able to tell me something more and I'll report back to you."

Remus smiled,"Great! Its almost dinner time now, Molly will call us any minute. Sit near the children and ask them. I'm sure if anyone knows about whats going on it will be Hermione." Tonks nodded and began to leave the room. "Wait! One more thing... don't tell Molly!"

Dinner that night was an unusual affair. Tonks sat beside Hermione and across from Fred and George. Remus sat beside Sirius as always, but both of them seemed reluctant to look at each other and seemed suspicious of anything the other had come near. Tonks turned to the children.

"So, anyone have any idea what those two are planning?" George coughed into his drink when he heard it. Tonks glanced up and lowered her voice. "Oh, so you two are in on it!" They eyed each other carefully then turned back to her.

"Tonks, do you promise not to tell either of them what we say to you?"

Tonks glanced down the table and turned back. "I swear on my pet hamster, Fluffy."

Fred and George managed to inform her that they were helping Sirius plan his pranks, but got no further because Molly announced that it was time for the children to go to bed. Under the camoflage of everyones groans, Ginny muttered to Tonks. " I guess I'll have to help Professor Lupin then." As they all started up the stairs, Tonks motioned for Remus to go to her room, as the other adults were intering the drawing room. Tonks turned and ran up another flight of stairs to Ginny's bedroom and knocked on the door.

"Ginny! It's Tonks, let me in. I need to ask you something." The door opened and Ginny motioned her in. As Ginny closed the door behind her, Tonks turned to face her. " Did you mean what you said about helping Remus? Because I have it on good authority that Remus is having trouble carrying out his plans alone."

Ginny grinned."Well, I grew up with Fred and George so I know my fair share on the art of pranking. Now, I'm not as good at the Twins and Sirius, but i'd bet that if you, me and Professor Lupin work hard enough, we might be able to do some damage."

Tonks smiled gleefully." Great, I'll contact you tomorrow with news."

As Tonks made her way to her room, she had to admit, it felt good to do something childish again. She often wondered if she would ever truely grow up, because she sure felt like a child at heart. As she crept past the door to Sirus and Remus's room she thought she heard the hushed voices of the Twins in the room. She opened her door , entered swiftly, and closed it behind her.

Remus spoke up. "Ok, whats up?" She turned to face him and sighed theatrically.

"I did as you suggested and learned a rather disturbing piece of news." She paused for dramatic effect. "Sirius has employed the help of Fred and George." She lowered her head in mock defeat.

"Thats not funny! Like I've said, I taught them! I know what they are capable of and lets just say... I'm no match for the three of them! Even with your help, I don't know how they work so I can't find a way to counter them."

Tonks cut in. "I have an answer." He looked up and payed rapt attention. "I went upstairs just now and had a conversation with none other than Ginny. She suggested that she can help you plan and carry out your pranks and perhaps, tell you what to expect from Sirius and the Twins."

Remus's smile slowly widened. "This is going to be one eventful week."

A/N: Alrighty, I've got the first prank planned out and i'm pretty sure that I can plan the rest, but I thougth it would be kewl to let ya'll give me some ideas on pranks! So just tell me who's the one pranking and what its about! or to be mysterious, just mention the elements of the prank and I can choose who does what!

Oh, I'm sorry its so short! But it's all that went with this chapter. The next one will probably be longer!
