"Messrs Moony, Wormtail, and Prongs, may I present, The Marauder's map!" Sirius Black said with a dramatic flair as he laid the map out to his friends.

"Its finally finished?" Wormtail, or Peter Pettigrew, asked cranning his neck to see it.

"No Wormtail, we just wanted to excite you," Prongs, James Potter, joked. The ringleader of the little group turned to his best friend. "Want to use it tonight Padfoot?"

"Did you need to ask?" Sirius said grinning mischievously.

"Can't we just wait until the full moon," Moony suggested.

"Where's the fun in that Remus?" James and Sirius asked together.
