Chapter 37-

Before Lars knew it, all his friends, including Peter had found out what Montague Kane had planned, it was a lot worse than Lars thought.

"Don't go through with it!" Remus urged his closest friend. "You don't want to get involved!" Lars ignored Remus and looked at the fireplace more.

"Remus," James laughed. "Lars is not an honor student, and neither are you!" James saw Sirius laugh, behind James. Remus disapproved, and walked off into the common room.

"I'm going!" Lars yelled. "I won't be anything short of a coward if I don't!" Lars saw James pat him on the shoulder.

"You are no coward!" James exclaimed. "As long as you're with us, you are defiantly not!"

"I'm going!" Lars yelled. But Lars saw James and Sirius casually walk with him.

"You think we are letting you go alone?" James laughed. "We're all friends!" Lars looked at Remus, who was confronted by Lily. Remus walked over to Lars. Lily decided to look away.

"I'll go too!" Remus said, as suddenly Anna came running down the stairs, passing Lily, and running up to the five of them, including Peter.

"Anna!" Lily barked at Anna, who ignored Lily. "What are you doing?" Lily continued to be ignored.

"Please be careful," Anna said to the five of them. "I know you have done this before, but Lars was challenged," James and Sirisu respected Anna's words, and headed off, with Lily managing one word to Anna, as Lars heard when he left.

The halls were dark, probably because no classes had went on. Finals were over, now all that remained was the Slug Club, and the 7th year graduations.

"I'm sure Montague will be at this one!" Lars laughed loudly, as suddenly someone started to walk towards them, there was a shadow, but nobody showed.

"Why would that be?" James asked, with Sirius nodding, just to be annoying.

"Lucius," Lars said, not even listening to James response, he was watching the halls, the shadows led to downstairs, to the dungeons….

"Are you alright?" Remus asked Lars, who again wasn't listening, but eyeing that shadow, it seemed to want Lars to go down to the dungeons.

Lars followed the shadow down, running, as the rest of his friends couldn't catch up to him. Lars figured they would catch up by following that shadow that was always right in front of him…. Problem was, there was no more shadow.

"Hello?" Lars said, in the dungeons. "Is anyone here?" Lars knew he was in Slytherin territory, but there was nothing to be done about it, Lars was already there.

Lars kept walking, he saw more light, and felt that he should follow the light, as Lars walked towards the light at the corner of the dungeons; it suddenly went out….. Next Lars knew he was hit by a powerful spell, and lay on the ground in the dungeons.

"Where am I?" Lars asked nervously, his eyes took a few minutes to re adjust, so he spoke out to his friends. "James, Sirius, Remus," Lars managed to say, before hearing a most uncomfortable voice.

"Pendelton," It was the voice of Montague Kane. "I got him in here!" Montague was talking to Severus, and Regulus.

"Let me finish him!" Avery laughed, Montague had only started hanging around with Avery at the end of the year.

"There will be no finishing off," Montague assured Avery. "I need to speak to this one!"

Lars finally opened his eyes, he was in a brightly green colored room, it was icy cold, and the walls were made of pure brick. This was the Slytherin common room for sure.

"Why do you have me here?" Lars asked. "What do you plan to do?" Suddenly Avery raised his wand, and spoke a spell Lars had never heard, but it was stopped by Montague.

"We need to know what James' idea is!" Montague yelled. "This idea he has, does it have something to do with Remus Lupin?"

"That would be our business," Lars said, as Montague hit Lars with a stunning spell, freezing his arm for 2 minutes.

"If that hurt, you're in for more!" Montague laughed, as Severus looked through a book Lars hadn't seen before, it seemed to have some weird spells in it.

"What is that?" Lars asked. He needed to find his wand, he hadn't seen it in the room, and it couldn't be outside.

Suddenly Montague had gotten distracted. "This is a book beyond any of your knowledge, including your friends," Montague laughed, as Lars felt the wand, he had left it in his secret robe pocket he had created when he was in the hospital wing. Lars pulled it out, and quickly jumped off the couch he had been laying on.

"Expellimus!" Lars yelled, and Montague's wand went flying and that distracted everyone. Lars had run for the door, and avoided a leg binding curse, as the curse hit the door Lars managed to escape out of.
