Sirius and the marauders- 6th year
Regulus- 5th year

***

Sirius had a reputation at hogwarts. He was a marauder, a trouble maker. He was a brave Gryffindor who did not turn his back to challenges. 
The female species swooned at his mere presence.
Yet, many people did not know this, but

Sirius Orion Black had a secret that no body knew,
not the gryffindors; not even the marauders.
Except one person.

Regulus Black. His little brother who was in Slytherin.
He had grown up with him, so he knew his deepest most embarassing secret.

***

It was the marauders annual prank war. James and Remus were against Peter and Sirius.
So far Sirius and Peter seemed to be ahead in the game.

James

James was getting annoyed. If they lost, then he would be forced to do Padfoot's homework for a month, same for Remus with Peter's.
He didn't want to do that, He definitely wouldn't.
He and Remus were having a bit of a set back, Padfoot knew his weakness , and he was comfortably using it against him.
He even used help from Evans for one of them. from EVANS!!

He sat near Remus at the library as the latter was doing homework.
He had come to formulate a brilliant prank to be their final, so they could beat pads and wormtail.
Wormtail was easy, it was padfoot who was the problem.

Out of the four of them, Sirius was the most mysterious.
He didn't share much of his personal life( which none of them minded) so he hadn't shared anything embarassing.

James continued to ponder, who would be able to help them with defeating Pads, who knew him that well?......
Sirius and Peter had taken the common room to discuss, so he was here with moony.
He absentmindedly looked around the room, he usually didn't like coming into the library, but Remus was here and he needed the teamwork to defeat Sirius.

Some of the Ravenclaws were studying, typical.
He even saw Evans, to his horror sitting with Snape. He quickly shook his thoughts, he couldn't get distracted right now, no matter how annoyed he had become.

Continuing his search, his wondering gaze led him to the raven haired Slytherin sitting alone in the opposite corner, completely oblivious to his surroundings, reading something.
Of course! why didn't he think of that before.
Regulus Black.
who better to ask for help.

"Psst, Moony."
"What is it Prongs?" He didn't even glance up from his homework.
"I have an idea to bring Sirius down." He whispered.
Remus glanced up, now that had caught his attention.
"What is it?"
"Look there." He followed James' gaze to the Raven haired Slytherin.
"Regulus!! Really prongs ?" he whisper yelled.
"It'll be perfect moons. Who better to ask about Sirius's secrets."He wiggled his eyebrows at secrets.

Remus was not impressed.
"And why exactly would he want to help you, of all people."
"I'm sure he'd like to prank Sirius, I mean who wouldn't want to. The guy's a nuisance."
"The guy, is also your best friend. Fine whatever, you can go ask Regulus for help but I'm not coming with you, I have homework."
"But Mooonnnyy." He whined
"No Prongs."

James pouted, moony was not being helpful,
At all.
All right then, if Remus wouldn't help him, He'd go and ask Regulus himself.

He turned back to look at Regulus Black in the corner,
Merlin! even the way he sat screamed pureblood.
Frankly, he looked scary 
James gulped.

This was not going to be easy.
