Sirius's POV
'Warning: Explosive' - that's the warning that should come with Rayn Pennifold. The girl's crazy, absolutely nuts, but I guess that's why we're great friends. If you thought she was a bit of angel, you were mistaken. I found this out the first night back at Hogwarts, we were in our dormitory.....

That night - Sirius's POV
"Drink it! Come on Sirius, what's life without a little risk?" I stared at the potion she gave me, unsure of what to do. Even James was shocked at her behaviour, so this didn't bode well for me.
"Rayn, what exactly did you put in this potion?"
She laughed. "Why? D'you really think I'd poison you Sirius? I may have a Slytherin streak in me, but I'm not that evil." She had a fair point, but I really didn't want to risk it. Remus came over and grabbed the bottle from me. He flipped the cap open and smelt it. His nose wrinkled.
"There's no poison in there, and," he sniffed it again, "there's a hint of nutmeg - really Rayn? Of all the counter ingredients, you chose nutmeg? You could've chosen -"
"Remus, ah, kind of going off topic there." Peter chimed in.
"Oh yeah! Right, Sirius, whatever she's put in here won't hurt you, purely because of  that nutmeg." He gave the bottle back to me. "Bottoms up mate."
"Not quite." Rayn said, just as I was about to down it. "Since Sirius probably has the strongest stomach out of us, I needed to get him to test the potion, because I want to use it for a prank." I lowered the bottle from my lips.
"On who? I need to know if it's worth the risk."
"The Slytherins of course! Snivelous, Lucy," a look of confusion spread throughout the room, "oh, you know. LUCIous." As soon as we realised who she meant, we rolled on the floor laughing.
"Definitely worth it." All of us boys said. I picked up the bottle again, and raised it.
"Cheers," here goes nothing....

Still that night - James's POV
"Cheers," Sirius said. I still think it's nuts that he agreed to do this. However, just before the bottle touched his lips, he hesitated and turned to Rayn. "How do you know I've got the strongest stomach here?"
Ray sighed. "Let's start with the weakest, Peter can barley handle Bertie Bott's Every Flavour Beans, how is he supposed to handle that? Sorry Pete."
"Nah mate, I agree." He replied.
"Now James -"
"Excuse me?" I sat up straight and almost bumped my head on the top of my bed. I hate being so tall.
"Let me finish." She gave me 'The Look' so I quickly shut up. "Now James, however strong a stomach it may seem, detests four ingredients in that." We all gave her a look. "Horklump Juice, boomslang skin, Dittany, black pepper." Geez! What kind of potion is this! "A disgusting one, James." Rayn said, then I realised that all heads were turned to me.
"I said that out loud didn't I?" They all nodded.
"Then Remus," everyone but Remus looked at her in surprise. She ignored us, "he couldn't handle a number of things, one of those being any kind of bug - don't worry Sirius, I didn't put any bugs in it - another being Tincture of Thyme and another one being Murtlap Essence. I put the last two in there."
"And what's wrong with your stomach?" Sirius asked. By this point I figured that this was quite a weird conversation, could it get any weirder? I didn't think so.
"I'll do pros and cons of my stomach," okay, this is a whole new level of weird, "pros: I can eat practically anything, unless it's poisonous. Believe me, I can eat most things a billy goat would turn down." The heads were looking at me again.
"She's not lying guys, believe me."
"Cons: I don't really have any cons on this one, but since I made the potion, I need someone else's point of view now, don't I? So, Sirius, I think that I have the strongest stomach, but you have the second strongest stomach so therefore, you should try it." Rayn leaned back and folded her arms, supposedly proud of herself.
The bottle found it's way to Sirius's lips again, and this time he drunk it. Only a few sips, then Rayn had grabbed the bottle and screwed the lid tightly shut.
