Hello my faithful readers.

I would like to dedicate this chapter to a certain FanFic reader/writer for pointing out that another author had took my story and used the same plot, idea, and actually used my very words for theirown story. They just changed my OCs names. I messaged this author and asked them to quit copying my story and that I worked really hard on and if they didn't stop, that I would have to report them.

I'm not sure if that was the best way to go about it, threatenig to report them that it, but I don't think it seems fair that another author is stealing my story.

Anyways, I hope you guys like this chapter. I'm having fun writing the affectionate Sirius/Samantha scenes.

Disclaimer- This is my story. My plot. My ideas. My charcters. Please do not steal any of or all of them. I have worked really hard at this story and do not appreciate having it taken and used with different OCs in it. I do not own the Marauders/Lily/Frank/Alice/Filtch/Dumbledore/etc. I only own my OCs and the ideas that I put into this story. PLEASE DO NOT COPY MY STORY AND JUST CHANGE THE OC NAMES AND CLAIM THAT IT IS YOURS! PLEASE!

"…those bastards." I whispered.

Lily was just standing there looking at the spot where they had disappeared and whispered, "We should have known."

She walked over to a bench sitting by the Honeyduke's door.

"Lily, can't we just go back in through the basement?"

"No. The owners have security measures put on the store, so nobody would break in. We got out. But we can't get back in."

"Damn it." I whispered. I slumped down on the bench beside Lily.

"What are we gonna do?" she desperately asked.

"I have no idea. I can't just believe they would do this!"

"I can," she said, glaring into the darkness.

"But they just left us hear. At night. Where no one can hear our screams!" I said sarcastically.

Lily got an evil glint in her eye, "We could be mugged."

I could see where she was going with this, "Or raped."

"Or possibly murdered…"

"…I don't think murdered will work Lily."

"Yeah sorry, got a little carried away. But I think raped would be too cruel."

"Yeah. So just mugged?"

"I think so."

"We have to hide the purse then," I said, as I shrunk it and stuck it in my pocket.

"And rip up our clothes a little. And ruin our hair. You know make it look like we got beat up or something."

I stood up and grabbed Lily's shirt sleeve and ripped it off. Then I ripped her hair out of her ponytail and fussed with it, I even put a couple leaves in it. Using my wand I put some holes in her pants and some dirt all over her clothes. Then I put some mud on her face. She looked like she had been tossed around a bit.

"Okay, now I need you to cry."

She gave me a bemused look, "Why?"

"Cause your eyes get all puffy like they do when you cry."

"…and?"

"Well you can't just walk into the tower and be like 'Oh I was just mugged in the middle of a dark street. Some dudes totally beat me up. But I'm cool.' no you can't do that. Normal people would cry."

"I can't make myself cry!"

I slapped her face as hard as I could. She gasped and her eyes teared up.

"Okay Lily, concentrate on the tears! Focus on crying!"

She did and she started silently crying. Tears were streaming down her face and her eyelids were getting all puffy.

After about five minutes, she stopped, "How do I look?"

I studied her face, "Completely ruined."

She smiled, "Your turn."

She loosened my ponytail, to where it was just flopping and hanging at my neck. She added some leaves to mine like I did to hers. Then ripped my shirt and pants, and rubbed dirt on my clothes and face.

Next thing I knew, her palm connected with my face.

"OW! I CAN MAKE MYSELF CRY YOU IDIOT!"

She just smiled. My eyes teared up and I concentrated on the tears. Since I wear eyeliner and mascara, my make-up started running down my face. Lily looked at me after I was down and smiled, "They are gonna feel like shit."

We were on the road, walking towards the castle when Lily suddenly stopped, "Wait. How are we gonna get to the Common Room without being caught?"

"Well we just…oh hell."

"If only we had the map," She sighed.

"Stupid Sirius, and James. I just can't-wait a minute." I reached into my back pocket and felt it, "LILY I STILL HAVE THE MAP!"

"SERIOUSLY?!"

"No I'm lying to you, cause I think it'll just turn our night right around to say I have it then go 'Aaaa, I got cha!.' Yes I really have it! See?"

The map still had the dots on it. Each one labeled with a different name. The James and Sirius dots were sitting in the Gryffindor Common Room, "Probably waiting for us to come back, saying that we got a months worth of detention," Lily growled. .

We were now at the front gate to the school. I walked up to the 20 foot high gate-door and pushed on it. Surprisingly it opened. I looked at Lily with raised eyebrows, some security system they have, she just shrugged and walked through it. I followed, keeping my eye on the map, making sure no teachers were on the other side of the front door.

Lily pushed on the huge wooden door, it was unlocked too. Maybe you don't have to keep the doors of a magical facility locked. I mean who would be crazy enough to try and sneak into a building with hundreds of witches and wizards. Not to mention Dumbledore was in there, protecting everyone.

We started up the first staircase and had to quickly duck into an empty class room cause Filch was coming around the corner. He was mumbling again. I just couldn't hear what.

I looked at the map, he had gone down the stairs, towards the dungeons. No one else was in our way, so we made a run for it. Panting, with stitches in our sides, we made it to the Fat Lady in record time.

My eyes started tearing up from the pain, so did Lily's. I pointed to them and made a wiggling motion down my cheek. Indicating to take the pain and turn it into tears so we looked like we were crying again.

After we had fresh tears and puffy eyes, we said the password.

James and Sirius turned around at the sound of the portrait opening, Lily and I stumbled in, looking completely awful.

They started towards us and I sucked in a stuttering breath. Sirius looked scared and James looked like he was going to be sick.

"Oh my God. What happened to you guys?" Sirius whispered.

"A-after you g-guys le-eft us, we de-de-decided to tr-ry and walk b-back, b-but s-some g-g-uys ca-ame a-nd" Lily's broke down into sobs, and bent her head down and put her hands up to her face.

James rushed to her side, put his arms around her to where she was facing his chest, put his chin on top of her head and started going "Shhh. It's okay Lily. Everything's fine. Just calm down. You're safe now."

I started where she left off, "They j-j-ust came o-out of t-the al-alley and s-s-suroun-oun-ded u-us and t-t-t-took ev-evyth-ing. T-they w-w-were j-just t-too big." My voice broke and a fresh wave of tears came. Sirius rushed at me and hugged me really tight, burying my face in his chest. He bent his head down to where his lips were just above my left ear.

"Oh my God. I'm so sorry. I'll never ever leave you anywhere ever again."

I sucked in another trembling breath and he started whispering reassuring words rather than apologizes and promises, "Calm down Sam. Just breath deep. Shhh. It's okay. I've got you. Nothing bad's gonna happen."

He led me over to the couch sat down with me on his lap. I started to feel bad about this prank we were playing…but then I remember how they had left us, and I didn't feel that bad anymore. I mean, Lily and I could have been mugged… or worse.

I tucked my head in between his shoulder and jaw and he ran his fingers through my hair, brushing the leaves out of it.

Then he started rubbing soothing circles in my back. I heard Lily give the signal, "Sam, are you alright?" she asked.

I lifted my head and looked at Lily, "Yeah. I feel perfectly fine, you know considering the fact that we didn't actually get mugged."

Sirius froze and looked down at me. I met his gaze with a cold glare, "What?" He said.

"You heard her," Lily said.

I stood up and Sirius's hands fell onto his lap. James was behind the couch where he was standing with Lily. She came over to stand by me, so we were both facing them.

"Nothing bad happened to us." I said glaring at both of them.

"ALTHOUGH SOMETHING COULD HAVE!" Lily yelled.

"Lily, inside voice, you don't want to wake up the whole tower. But yes something could have. Do you have any idea how vulnerable a couple of 17 year old girls are?"

"At night," Lily added.

"All alone," I said.

"On an abandoned street."

"We are probably the easiest targets in the whole world!"

"How could you just leave us there?" Lily asked.

"How could you two play such a sick demented prank on us?!" James asked, he was obviously angry, trying not to yell.

"Well you should just be grateful that it was only a prank." I said coldly

"We could be dead right now because you thought it would be funny to leave us in Hogsmead."

They didn't have anything to say, so Lily and I turned on our heels and walked up the stairs to get cleaned up.

Reviews? What do you think? Is my story still good? Or is it getting bad as I go on?
