"Let's do something great! Something that will be worthy to go down in that boring book of History of Hogwarts!"

March 30th, 1977
It was night. The stars were up in the sky keeping company to the half moon. The five Marauders were on the boys' dorm each one of them in his own world. This was the first time something like that was happening and no one was complaining about it. After all they knew that this kind of silence was comfortable. They didn't need someone to talk because they knew that nothing was wrong. They just wanted to stay calm.
Electra was looking at some papers that she had scattered on Sirius' bed where she was sitting. He on the other hand was lying on the sofa thinking of the following days. Remus was next to the window and was looking outside at the night sky taking deep breaths of the fresh air that was entering the through it. Peter was playing wizarding chess against himself and had a troubled expression for each move he was doing. James was looking himself in the mirror trying to think what should he tell to Lily next morning. To his surprise the red head had signed to be in his group.
Eventually Remus turned his back to the window and looked at his friend. "So how are the preparations going?"
From the couch Sirius was lying they heard a sigh of desperation. Electra took her eyes off the notes and smirked at the boy's reaction. "So bad?"
"Well I don't know how are you handling all these children El but let me tell you something... Never and I repeat NEVER be in a team which is consisting only from girls and two more boys."
James broke character and started laughing. "The don't want to cooperate, do they?"
"No it's not that!" Sirius whimpered and stood up from the couch moving to sit on his bed. "The problem is that their aim is to impress me and not to win... What's that El?" He asked and sat next to her.
"Get your eyes off my notes, Padfoot" She replied lightly without looking at him.
"Find me something more interesting to look at." He replied in total apathy and took one of the parchments to read what was written in it.
"Look at me." She replied without thinking it that much. "I'm far more interesting" she added but what had happened had happened. Sirius smirked and lied on his bed looking at her. "So... What about you guys?"
James flashed them a smile and was about to start talking, like he was keeping so much inside him that he wanted to discuss them immediately with someone. In reality the only thing that bad happened was Lily going in his team.
"No no no. I'm sorry Prongs but if you start now we'll have no time." Peter took his glance off the chess game and looked at his friends. "We have made progress. We came up with a prank but we don't know if it's the one. Also Regulus and Orpheus are in my team. Something that really surprised me."
The four teens looked at him sceptically. They couldn't see why they choose Peter. Not because he wasn't capable of pranks but because that they even decided to take part. Why would they?
"However we created a bond somehow, despite our differences we get on well together." Electra smiled at her friend's words.
"The children in my team have some terrific ideas. I just can't choose one. I wonder were all this imagination of us has gone... Such great ideas guys. You can't imagine." She said with a warm smile. Her team was consisting from basically young boys and girls who liked her without knowing her well. And she was happy about it. Even though at first she was feeling bad that no one else had chosen to be with her, apart from Charlie.
