"Well done, Elizabeth, George!" The members of the TT yelled as the two entered the RR again taking off their cloak, after ten minutes of waiting. The two burst into fits of laughter. "You should have seen the look on his face when he looked in the mirror!" George hollered.

"He was purely hideous!" Elizabeth choked.

"Hear hear for inducting the Weasley triplets!" Sip said, literally rolling on the floor laughing. Zach glanced at his Muggle watch.

"It's almost nine o'clock. We've been here for a while." Zach stated, standing.

"Let's go, everyone. Don't forget meeting tomorrow, same place, same time." Carl said nonchalantly. He stood and stretched. Everyone stood and a few of the older students Disapparated to their common rooms. Finally Ethan, David, Kristin, the twins, Zach, Angelina, Lee, Peter, and Liz were left. Zach led David and Kristin away and Ethan took everyone else and began leading them up to their dorms. Suddenly Filch appeared before them.

"Now what are you doing out of dorm rooms?" He demanded.

Ethan immediately replied calmly, "I found these students to not be in the common room, so I found and rounded them up. They have detentions and points have been deducted." Filch raised an eyebrow suspiciously but nodded to them. The twins glanced at each other and frowned. Peter leaned forward and whispered in their ears.

"Ethan's a prefect. He does what he wants." The twins grinned and nodded.

Finally, they reached the common room and entered. People barely glanced up, and they all continued doing their work. The twins and Elizabeth sat on the couch, Elizabeth in the middle.

"That was fabulous, Liz!" George said.

"Why did you never tell us about the cloak!?" Demanded Fred.

"I wanted to surprise you two." She said sheepishly.

"Well you sure did." George said. The three of then sat there in silence when Elizabeth suddenly had a devilish idea.

"I'm not exactly tired, are you?" She asked.

"Nope!" The twins said simultaneously.

"Well, you know Filch has an office. I've always wanted to check it out. And we have an invisibility cloak..." She trailed off winking. The twins beamed at her, catching on. She pulled out her invisibility cloak and the three of them got under it and they left the common room. They snuck down the stairs and around some hallways. They had just got to Filch's office when he frowned and looked around the room then down at a piece of paper. He threw it into the fire and left the room. Elizabeth quickly tore off the cloak and grabbed the burning paper and blew it out.

"Reversus Revolvus," she whispered, and the paper fixed itself and became new. Suddenly a message appeared on the paper.

It read 'Thank you. Elizabeth Pure, Fred, and George Weasley. I am the Marauder's Map. Simply say "I solemnly swear that I am up to no good" and I will show you my secrets. Say "Mischief managed" and I will close, so no one may read me.'

Elizabeth finished reading it out loud and looked at the twins, grinning. Together the three of them said.

"I solemnly swear that I am up to no good."

Suddenly writing began to appear. They opened up the map and it was a map of Hogwarts including all the secret passageways, apart from the RR.

"This is incredible!" George said.

"Look it's Filch!" Exclaimed Fred.

"He's walking towards the gate!" Elizabeth finished.

"And Dumbledore's up and pacing." George said.

"This is so cool!" They all said at once.

"Look! It's Mrs. Norris!" Fred said.

"She's headed our way!" Elizabeth said.

They yanked the invisibility cloak over their heads, still holding the Marauder's Map. The cat stride in the room and laid down on the carpet as the three of them silently creeped out of Filch's office and headed up to the common room. They grinned at each other and burst out laughing.

"That's so cool!" Elizabeth said, staring at the map.

"Who should keep the map?" Asked George.

"And should we tell the others?" Asked Fred.

They all looked at each other. "No." They said shaking their heads.

"I think Fred should keep it. He's the one who never looses a thing." Elizabeth said decidedly. George nodded and handed the map to Fred who said.

"Mischief managed."

"Now no one can read it." George whispered.

They headed off to their separate dorms, all grinning about their new discovery. The Marauder's Map made them all, in that moment, the rulers of Hogwarts. They had free reign of the place
