Chapter 8 (8)
Explaining he prank to Harry had taken a little longer than Sirius had thought it would. He had even had to get out the plan he had written out so Harry could read it before he had really understood. Sirius should have been really frustrated at having to spend so long going through it all but instead he enjoyed having Harry listening to him. He loved the feeling of having all of Harry's attention, even if it was only for a while.
Eventually, after the fifth time Sirius have gone over it Harry knew all the details. They left Sirius' room and went downstairs to get the rest of the things they needed.
Meanwhile, somewhere else in the huge house, Remus had decided to go on a cleaning spree. He had cleaned the kitchen,living room, his room, the big hall at the front of the house and Harry's room. He had been putting off doing Sirius' room until last because it was a complete mess but as he walked past he decided he might as well finish the job.
He had started to fix the covers on the bed when he saw a piece of parchment covered with writing and pictures. He was just going to leave it there and clean around it but his curiosity got the better of him and he picked it up and started to read it.
It only took him a couple of sentences to realise it was some kind of plan. As he finished reading a slow, evil grin stretched across his face. It was so typical of Sirius to go to all the trouble of making up a plan and writing it out, only to leave it where one of the potential victims could find it.
He carefully placed the parchment exactly where he found it and left the room to think about what to do with the information he had just discovered. Sirius wasn't the only marauder in the house.
Sirius and Harry had decided to work on Snape before starting the main phase of the plan. They had found a vial of veritaserum at the back of a cupboard in the kitcen. Sirius was trying to add it to his drink while Harry distracted him. Unfortunatly, Snape was always suspicious whenever the two of them voluntarily stayed in the same room as him so he wasn't easy to distract.
After several unsucessful attempts, Sirius managed to empty the potin into Snape's pumpkin juice. He smirked as Snape reached over and took a big gulp.
Harry pointed his wand at the door to lock it while Sirius conjured ropes to keep Snape attached to the chair and sound-proofed the room.
Sirius rubbed his hands together gleefully while Snape wriggled and yelled angrily.
"Don't worry Snivellus we aren't going to hurt you."
Snape was completely unconvinced and carried on wriggling.
"We just need to ask you a few questions."
"I'm not going to answer any questions so you might as well just LET ME GO!"
Harry sniggered.
"You will answer trust us."
Sirius nodded and carried on with his questioning.
"Question number 1... What is the one thing you would most hate to do? washing your hair doesn't count."
Snape made a strange mumbling sound as he tried not to speak but he couldn't fight the veritaserum.
"Go out with either of you two."
Harry cracked up laughing.
"Thank Merlin for that. Sorry Professor that is NEVER going to happen."
Sirius started to laugh then stopped and went completely white.
"What's wrong?"
"We can't use that. There is no way i'm touching him!"
Harry stopped laughing too. He didn't want to kiss Snape much more than Sirius did.
"oh... Well I guess I could do it. But..."
Harry shuddered, just thinking about it made him feel sick.
"I'll just... pretend he's someone else or something."
"You don't have to you know we can think of something else."
"No... it's ok. Well not really but it won't kill me."
Sirius really didn't like the idea of Harry kissing his enemy but he couldn't tell Harry that.
"Ok then if you're sure. Next question..."
They carried on with the questions until they thought they had enough. They found out that Snape hated the colour pink, that he would never be seen dead in a Santa costume and that he would never work as a waitor in the new restaurant in Hogsmeade where all the waitors and waitresses wore roller skates or any restuarant for that matter.
They probably could have found out more but the Veritaserum was waring off and they needed to erase his memory so he wouldn't remember any of their conversation. They undid his ropes and left him in the room with no memory of the whole incident.
"You know Sirius. I think this might go pretty well after all."
Sirius smiled an nodded but his heart wasn't in it. There were still parts of this plan he didn't like very much.
A/N: review my darlings! i'm trying to get onto a second page with the reviews.
