The young Marauders and the Golden Trio
Chapter6: Snakes and Ladders
~James~
"Oh Sev!" cried Lily and knelt down before him, she didn't hug him she must of been so happy that he was ok, but to tell the truth I didn't care. "did Sirius hurt you?" she asked "did he hex you?"
"Hey" snapped Sirius "I'm not a maniac who just hex's people for fun"
"Yeah right" muttered Remus
"No" said Snape "he would be expelled from Hogwarts if he did" and went on examining the game. It was snakes and ladders just the normal muggle game but this time something was different, on each square was small writing it didn't look good, I decided to ask him about it, but it took Snape a few seconds to answer
"It's called Curses and Fortune" explained Snape but didn't say anymore.
"But I thought that game was banned!" exclaimed Remus.
"Curses and Fortune" said Lily "It looks like Snakes and Ladders to me" and she looked around at all four of us, but Snape just shook his head "don't you Mudbloods know anything"
"Don't call her Mudblood Snivellus!"I shouted as I pushed Snape into the boxes.
"Stop it!" screamed Lily "can someone just tell me what Cures and Fortune is"
"Well I've never actually played it" explained Sirius "but I know the rules, it like the normal muggle games Snakes and Ladders but its magical like let's say you land on a ladder you go up and fortune would come to you"
"Like what?" she asked
"I'm not sure; I told you I haven't played it" said Sirus "It says what will happen on the board but the writing is too small to read"
"But what happens when you land on a Snake" Lily asked
"Then you bad stuff happens" answered Remus "that's why it was banned! It's a game not to be played with"
"Well" said Snape "it looks fun"
"Wait!" I cried "Snape finds something fun!"
"I'm only human" Snape replied "so how about it or all of you to scared"
"I'm not scared" I protested and sat by the game opposite Snape.
"Me neither" said Sirius boldly and sat down next to me, but a could see a hint of fear in his eyes, he must know know more about this game the he's prepared to tell
"But James remember your mums rules" said Remus as he took the list out of his pocket "rule number two 'Don't play snakes and ladders'"
I suddenly remembered my mum's rules I didn't want to let her down even though they are stupid rules she must have had a good reason to put them down
"Oh so you're going to listen to your mummy now" mocked Snape "the famous James Potter listening to his mummy"
"Oh shut up Snivellus! I'm still playing" I snapped "you Padfoot"
"Sure" but he did not sound convinced
"I have no reason to play illegal game" snapped Lily "Remus do something"
"I'm not sure what I should do Lily, if they get cursed it's their own fault"
"Oh lighten up Moony"
"Whatever"
So in few minutes we started the games no one had landed on a snake or a ladder yet but it is about time someone did, Sirius landed on Ladder
"Yes" he cried "fortune is mine...so what do I get?" as he said that twenty chocolate frogs fell from the ceiling
"What the hell!" I cried
"Beginners luck" snarled Snape once the frogs stopped falling.
"Yeah right this day can't go wrong now" said Sirius.
"Unless you get a curse," muttered Lily.
And we went on playing, not much happened until I landed on a Snake.
"Oh dear" whispered Sirius and Remus, what was going to happen to me, I looked from Sirius to Remus who looked worried as did Lily, but Snape was just smirking which didn't surprise me at all.
"Time for my revenge now Potter for hexing me for all these years"
But suddenly there was loud crash coming from upstairs. We ran to where the noise had come from, on the top of the stairs where three children about my age, one was a girl with brown curly hair and next to her was a boy with red hair like a Weasley but the one behind the girl was the one everyone was staring at he had round glasses and bright green eyes and messy black hair.
Just like mine.
Interesting
So where has Mrs Rowling gone?
Should the Marauders finish the board games?
Should I continue this story?
OoOoOoOoOoOoO
