Chapters 34 Pain and loss.
The weather as it had been so unpredictable was now snowing heavily on Hogwarts and the town of Hogsmeade. Lily had yet to find a chance to talk alone with Severus, but she had to admit that the Marauders were keeping her busy. They had gone into the woods many times during the weekends and had even found a horde of murderous spiders the size of cars and baby elephants. It was not easy as animals to run away from all those spiders, which started to swarm after them.
Lily smiled to herself as she remember kicking a spider in the head and busting a many faceted eye with her hoof when it had tried to wrap some sticky thread around her legs. James was there in an instant also kicking the spider. They had run pell mell from the place after that and were panting heavily as they came out of the woods to flop down on the grass by Hagrid’s home. After changing back Sirius had dropped several fangs that had been knocked out.
“The venom from those spiders are worth a few dozen galleons. Might as well profit from it.”
They all laughed at this.
After wards they laughed about the narrow escape from the spiders and thought of things they could do to get close but not caught by them. After all they had made six hundred galleons when they sold the venom and the fangs.
Peter’s idea of them all becoming rats was shot down in an instant, they would not be able to run fast enough and would be one small gulp and gone to the belly of the spider.
Peter looked put out by his idea being shot down.
“So Moony your furry little problem is coming up, I was thinking of something we could do about it.” James leaned forward from his place on the couch with Lily between him and Sirius.
Lupin was sitting in the armchair across from them, with Peter lying on the floor, trying to finish the homework that the others had completed a few days earlier.
Remus smiled at James, he enjoyed the way James called it a furry little problem, it made it seem less harsh and more like a misbehaving pet then the fact that he changed with the moon.
“What’s the idea?”
“Up in the mountains, I heard there are hidden things there, things that no one has yet to find.”
“Like what?” Padfoot asked intrigued leaning in closer to James.
