I lazily drifted about in the halls, occasionally dropping a water balloon or two on Peeves's head. I have pranked at least twenty people, including Draco. I tortured the Golden Trio with constant notes about Voldemort's rising and left a couple for Granger saying "Freak!" or "Insufferable know-it-all!". The first few days were pretty fun, but after a while, it gets boring. So I decided to mess up a couple of Fred and George's pranks!

"Ready Fred?"

"Ready George."

I drifted behind them as they prepared the prank they're planning to put on Snape.

"Hang the bucket, there."

"Dump in dung bombs, sprinkle in a couple of itching powder."

"Sneak away."

"And prepare for reaction."

The twins crackled, high-fiving each other as they pulled out a piece of parchment. Curious, I floated closer to see.

"We solemnly swear we are up to no good." Fred whispered, as the parchment opened up. A map of the entire Hogwarts spread out in front of us.

I watched in amazement as words appeared at the bottom of the parchment.

'Messrs Moony, Wormtail, Padfoot and Prongs

are proud to present

THE MARAUDERS MAP'

I scoffed. My map is much more better. But then, something happened that amazed me.

Fred tapped the map. "Mischief managed.." The map went blank.

"Let's see what Moony, Wormtail, Padfoot and prongs has to say to us today." George snickered.

He tapped the map. "Are you feeling better today, Mommy, Wormy, Paddyfoot and Pronsie?"

The map immediately answered back.

'Mr. Moony the Handsome would like to say that he is not your mommy, Mr. Weasley, but is wondering whether Mr. Weasley has washed his hair today.'

I snickered. Moony is quite right, he will get a hair wash.

'Wormtail would like to question Mr. Weasley if he really think he will get a girlfriend with looks like that.'

I let out a gasp of laughter, it was true.

'Padfoot is siriusly serious that he is Sirius Black and is not called Paddyfoot.'

I gasped. So that's who Sirius Black was!

'Prongs the handsomer one would like to "compliment" Mr. Weasley on his terrible pranking ideas.'

"Oi!" George said aloud, shocked.

I smirked. Time for action.

I snatched the map right out of George's hands and pocketed it. George looked around in fear and confusion. Making sure that both twins are under the bucket, I tipped it over.

KABOOM! The itching powder and the dung bombs exploded. Snape crashed through his office to see what was going on, only to discover two white and smelly people shaped creatures.

"What in the world?" Fred cursed.

"Run." George responded.

The twins took off running with an angry Snape following them. I laughed to myself, still grabbing the map. I smirked at it, before saying, "Your trouble-making twins are gone, and I, Shade Potter, is here!"

Words started appearing furiously.

'Moony welcomes Shade to the Marauder's Map, but has to say she is a straight haired baboon.'

I snorted, and tapped the map. "Baboons are already straight haired, you fool."

'Mr. Wormtail would like to compliment Miss Potter on outsmarting Mr. Moony, since no one had been able to. But he couldn't help but say that Shade Potter is a bloody dunderhead.'

I let out an offended gasp.

'Mr. Padfoot would like to say that Shade Potter really is his friend Jame's daughter, bloody adventurous, but extremely idiotic.'

'Mr. Moony would like to share with his idiotic friends that Shade Potter is not his, but his traitorous brother Nicholas Potter.'

I let out a huff of annoyance, closing the map. This will come useful one day.

I then pulled out my map, surveying the lands of Beauxbatons. It was pretty small, compared to Hogwarts. Little dots moved along the parchment, moving across the castle. Speech bubbles appeared and disappeared. They were just boring conversations about clothes, makeup, boys, etc. I looked down at the Hogwarts section and thought I'd stalk the Golden Trio! I found them in Moaning Myrtle's restroom. I giggled. So Potty and Weasel are in the girls restroom, huh.

"I know what we can do. It will be breaking about fifty school rules though."

"We have to so we can reveal Malfoy before he kills off all muggleborns."

"It will be very difficult, and involves a difficult potion."

"Well, we've got to try. Where are the ingredients?"

"Restricted section of the library."

"What is it called?"

"Polyjuice Potion."

I gasped. So they were planning to turn into someone Draco trusts to find out if he was the Heir of Slytherin!

I can't let them get away with it. So I decided to warn Draco! How? Oh, my usual notes.

I found him on the couch, asleep. I snickered, prodding him awake. He mumbled something I couldn't make out, and stumbled awake, scanning the common room for people. When he didn't find any, he let out a shrill scream. Honestly, he may seem all tough and mean, but he sure screams a fucking lot.

I grabbed a piece of parchment and wrote down: Don't trust ones that act suspicious. Even if they are your most trusted ones.

I saw Draco read it and laughed as he ran out of the common room to meet "Crabbe and Goyle."

I narrowed my eyes, gathering up all my prank materials and followed him out. Showtime.

Draco's P.O.V

I ran out of the common room as fast as I can, afraid that the ghost would catch up to me. What did it mean about don't trust the ones acting suspicious? Did it know something? I heard voices up front, recognizing them to be Crabbe and Goyle's. They were talking to Percy Weasley, who has apparently caught them.

"Crabbe! Goyle!" I shouted, motioning them over.

Weasley looked at me suspiciously. "What are you doing out here, Malfoy?"

I nodded coolly at him. "When was it your job to monitor the Slytherins? Alright, alright. I was just collecting these pigs." I said nodding to Crabbe and Goyle- who has glasses on. "Why are you wearing glasses, Goyle?" I asked.

"Reading." Goyle muttered, putting them away.

They look suspiciously like Harry Potter's...

Don't trust the ones that act suspicious. Even if they are your most trusted ones.

I played the message in my mind, twirling my wand.

Don't trust the ones that act suspicious...

I stared into Crabbe and Goyle's eyes. They seemed a bit... nervous.

Even if they are your most trusted ones...

They're hiding something. I know they are. "Come on boys, follow me."

I led them to the Slytherin common rooms and decided to test them a little. "What's the password again?" I asked them, pretending that I don't know. I watched suspiciously as Crabbe and Goyle sent panicky expressions at each other.

Don't trust...

"Oh yeah, It's Pureblood." I said and the door slid open.

I glanced back at them. Their eyes held one emotion and one emotion only... Relief.

Don't trust suspicious acts...

"I do wonder who is attacking all the people... I realized that most of them are mudbloods, except for Shade. Why she was petrified, I don't know. But you know who I hope gets petrified next?" I lowered my voice. "Mudblood Granger. Little Miss Know It All. Hope she's petrified forever."

I watched with suspicion as Crabbe's fist clenched. Goyle had to hold him down to stop him.

They really are acting very suspicious...

"I can't believe people think Harry Potter is the Heir of Slytherin. I mean, he is a Gryffindor. A bloody Gryffindor!"

Crabbe and Goyle doesn't seem to be paying attention to me. They were too busy sending secret messages to each other. I picked up a newspaper. "Maybe this will cheer you up." I said, showing them the newspaper about Weasley's dad. To my surprise, Crabbe's face turned red with anger, his fist curling. I took a step back.

"What's up with you two?! You're acting very strange."

Goyle managed to calm Crabbe down. "It's his stomach ache."

Don't trust... Even your trusted ones...

I narrowed my eyes. "Okay, fine."

Crabbe and Goyle seemed to deflate with relief.

Then the strangest thing happened. Crabbe's hair turned a little red at the tips and is slowly becoming more red. I looked over to Goyle whose hair had became black and untidy. I let out a strangled yell, leaping over the couch to block the exit. "Weasley?! Potter?!"

The two boys glanced at each other sheepishly. "Er- You see-"

SPLASH! A bucket of water poured over their heads. The boys leapt up, glancing up toward the ceiling to see where the water was coming from. When they saw nothing, Harry let out a strangled whisper of "G-Ghost." They ran toward the exit I was blocking when a random fish (Idk why I put a fish in lol) came flying out of nowhere and bopped Weasley on the nose. They halted, looking at the fish in surprise. Then the ghost threw a fake spider which landed on Weasley's head. The fake spider had a note attached to it's leg which Weasley tossed to me as he and Potter ran off. I opened the note and saw the symbol of the Thunderbolts. I smiled. The mysterious ghost was Shade Potter.
