Messr Prongs and His King- Ch. 4 snippet:
Nothing. Three hours of searching through every police report, news article, and gossip column he could find, and he’s found nothing. James rubbed his irritated eyes. Whoever she was, she was good. Diana has killed a dozen men, each one more important than the last, and none of them had made the news. It seems Malfoy had them all covered up himself, the deaths of his lieutenants would make him look weak. But Malfoy was a member of parliament and one of the wealthiest men in England, there’s no way his death will be covered up. Does this means that Diana’s done now that her deeds will be exposed at last? James, selfishly, hoped not. If she’s still out there, it means there’s a chance he might see her again.
‘Besides’, he thought, ‘I took the credit. If anyone’s gonna suffer any backlash, it’s-’
James sat up straighter as the realization struck him. “Me”, he said the last part out loud.
Was that it? Did Diana, King, let him take the credit because she knew it would come back to bite him in the arse? If people think he killed Malfoy, who’s to say they won’t blame the Marauders for the other murders as well. Diana played him, making him take the consequences for her actions. She played him, and he fell right for it, because he’s a soft idiot who’s weak for pretty girls.
James, frightened for his friends and angry at Diana (he was a bit impressed too, but mostly angry), picked up his phone and called Remus.
