"You have to tell me how you did that." Pandora asked her while they walked to their last lesson. This has been a question that Aelori heard all freaking day. Pandora has been by her side since, trying to get an answer out of her.

"I got a long time to practice when I was in the woods." Aelori replied to her.

"But that is impossible." Pandora waved her hands around. "You are not allowed to do magic when you are not 17 years old."

"Pandora," Aelori silently said, hoping no one overheard. "You have seen that I turned a goblet into a dragon, right?"

This made Pandora nod.

"Then I also know how to get a little charm off my own wand."

Aelori simply winked at the girl and started to walk faster down the corridor. Pandora was watching her for a while, deciding to follow her, but stopped when she saw a glistering in the air, following her.

She put on a smile on her face. Just a little karma of not telling your friend.

The boys had one mission and one mission only. Give the new girl a welcome gift, special from the marauders.

They had seen how she didn't get hit by their last prank. So, they waited until she got inside a room where they could throw in a dungbomb. It was simple, but that is why it is so great.

James Potter's words to be exact.

They saw the girl walking inside the bathroom, which they hoped was empty. With the cloak still over their heads they slowly walked in after a while. The four boys looked around the bathroom in confusion when they didn't see her.

None of the toilets were locked.

"What the hell." Sirius said, pulling off the cloak. James quickly ruffled his hair straight, as much as he could.

"Hello boys." They turned around to the door they just walked into, seeing Aelori standing there with a dungbomb in her hands. She casually threw it up and down in her hand.

Peter's eyes widened and opened his own bag, seeing his own missing.

"How-?"

"How did I do this?" Aelori raised her brows up. "Very simple, just waiting until the door opens and hide behind it. You guys are smart, but not smart enough. You have seen me, I have lived a long time in the woods."

This made the boys freeze. She knew about them, but how.

"Don't worry." She quickly said. "Your secret is safe with me, as I hope my secret is safe with you."

All the boys nodded their heads at her.

"Well then." She twisted the dungbomb in her hands. "I hope you have enough time to shower before your next lesson."

She let go the dungbomb, making the boys quickly run up to her. She smiled at them and closed the door, locking it in the process without using her wand.

The boys scrambled up towards the door, pushing it and hitting it, but nothing worked. Remus eventually grabbed his wand and opened it with a swing.

The marauders tumbled down before Aelori's feet. Aelori popped a lolly pop in her mouth and gave the boys a smirk.

"You even stole my lolly pop?" Peter said in disappointment.

"You guys really have to try harder." Aelori said to them, after they collected themselves. But they all froze in their steps.

"You guys have to try harder to have a nice get away too I see."

Aelori turned around and found a shorter girl with red hair.

"Lily-flower, we didn't do anything it was all her." James quickly said to Lily, his eyes pleading.

"You are really disgusting, potter." She said, taking a step closer to him. "You are head boy, you are an example for the young students."

"I am sorry." Aelori began, cutting off the fierce redhead. "It was all my fault, they really didn't do anything."

"Detention, tonight." Lily said writing down a paper and making it disappear in air. "Potion classroom after dinner, don't be late."

Remus went to say something, but Aelori quickly shook her head at him. It really was her fault, she could have just walked away after stealing their stuff.

Lily quickly walked away after James tried to get another date out of her.

Remus went to say something, but Aelori was already walking down the corridor. He quickly pushed the guys away to run after her.

"Why did you take all the blame?" He quickly asked.

"Because I was the one who set off the dungbomb." Aelori held in her breath, because the guy really smelled. She pulled out her wand and did a quick spell on him.

Remus mumbled out a little thanks.

"What is your name, by the way." Aelori quickly asked him.

"Lupin, Remus Lupin."

"Nice to meet you Remus, I am Aelori." She smiled at him which he returned.

"You know," Remus began. "That was really a Slytherin move, you know."

This made Aelori scoff at him.

"You guys and those houses here." Remus looked at her in confusion. "A Ravenclaw can be sly, a Gryffindor can be witty, a Slytherin can be brave and a Hufflepuff can be ambitious."

Remus stood still in his steps, and Aelori gave him a quick smile and walked further to her last class, DADA.
