Sirius mourns Marlene's death in the worst way possible.

Sirius finally brandished his wand and muttered, "Mischief managed." The marauders watched as the ink disappeared and finally the message at the top of the page, vanished into nowhere as well. As the boys looked up at each other, they savoured the moment that the Marauders Map was born.

"Lily!" James exclaimed running towards her and embracing her in a hug that lifted her off her feet. Petunia was looking at the two with horror and disgust as James twirled Lily around. She suddenly took note of the second boy and caught his eye. He smirked at her and came closer to the door as Petunia stepped out of the door frame to get closer to him.

James stood at the entrance to the Head Tower common room, his head boy badge shining on his chest. He was waiting for his feisty redheaded assistant, whom he adored. Lily didn't like being called that, but James had no problem continuing with her nickname.
