I woke up on Christmas morning and looked around. All the beds were empty. Of course. Everyone in my room was at their home. I wanted to be at Hogwarts. I just felt, that something good will happen. I took my muggle robes and headed to take a shower. After taking a shower I dressed up and looked at the mirror.

"Yea, really colorful" I said sarcastically. I took a book and walked downstairs.

"MERRY CHRISTMAS!" somebody shouted and hugged me. Wait. It's already Christmas?

"Merry Christmas?" I said, but it sounded like a question.

"Don't tell me you forgot." Charlie grinned releasing me.

"No" I said smiling sheepishly (spelling?).

"You did! You forgot Christmas!" Charlie said laughing.

"Don't worry, I have presents" I said laughing.

"Yay!"

"You know what? Sometimes you behave like you are five years old"

"I don't care."

"I know you don't"

After that I grabbed presents and went downstairs. There I met Fred, George and Percy. We exchanged presents. I mostly got sweets. The day went by and after diner I was sitting by the fire in the common room and reading potions book. 

"EMILIAAAAA! Look what we found!" Fred and George shouted running to me

"What?" I asked putting my book on the table.

"A map." George said.

"Map?" I asked with a raised eyebrow,

"Yes! Hogwarts map to be specific." Fred said.

"Show me" I said with excitement.

They show me a map and Fred took out his wand, touched the parchment lightly, and said, "I solemnly swear that I am up to no good." And at once, think ink lines began to spread like a spider's web from the point that Fred's wand hand touched. The words began to blossom across the top, great, curly green words, that proclaimed: 'Messrs. Moony, Wormtail, Padfoot and Prongs Purveyors of Aids to Magical Mischief-Makers are proud to present. THE MARAUDER'S MAP.' It was a map showing every detail of the Hogwarts castle and grounds. But one thing was magnificent" there were tiny ink dots moving around it, each labeled with a name in minuscule writing.

"Look that's us!" I shouted as I saw our names. "That's brilliant guys. When are we going to try it out?"

"Now." they said in unison. They both had identical grins on their face.
