"Hey, Moony!" sang Sirius.
Remus stopped reading his textbook. "What, Sirius?"
James and Peter came in the dorm grinning.
"WE DID IT!" shouted Peter.
Remus stared at them. "Do I even want to hear it?"
James was still grinning. "Yes."
Remus looked confused. "I do?"
Sirius laughed. "Yes, you do!"
Remus glared at them. "Well, what is it? If it's a prank, fear for your lives."
James smirked. "We're Animagi now."
There was silence.
Remus paled. "No. Way."
"Yes we are!" yelled Peter. He turned into a gray rat.
"Wormtail..." whispered Remus.
James turned into a brown stag.
"Oh my Merlin, Prongs..."
Sirius bowed and promptly morphed into a black dog.
"Err.. I'm not getting the 'Padfoot' bit," apologized Remus.
James the Stag huffed with laughter. Peter the Rat squeaked in amusement.
Sirius the Dog looked offended. He barked and held up a paw, showing off his padded foot.
"Ok... Padfoot? You know, that is really creepy."
James the Stag snorted with laughter. Peter the Rat was rolling on the floor, squealing.
Sirius the Dog glared at Remus.
"Ugh, fine. Merlin, Padfoot..." Remus lowered his voice for the 'Padfoot' part.
James the Stag was pawing the floor in intense amusement. Peter the Rat was squalling.
Sirius the Dog barked fiercely at them.
They all transformed back.
"Geez, Remus, you ruined everything," whined Sirius.
"Oh Merlin, 'Err.. I'm not getting the 'Padfoot' bit'," gasped Peter.
"'Ok... Padfoot? You know, that is really creepy.'" mimicked James, howling with laughter.
Sirius scowled. "The point is-"
"There's a point to breaking the law?"
"Moony!"
James and Peter just laughed.
