BONNIE WAS THE last of the girls to finish packing. She took her time because this was when it became real. Once they graduated from Hogwarts, they would not be under the castle's protection, nor would they be seeing each other every second of every day. This unnerved Bonnie because now, her mission was growing serious. She could not screw this up... she couldn't waste any more time.

Watching a few house-elves come in to take her dormmates' things, she smiled wryly at the one trying to take hers. "Er... right. One second, Miss," she whispered, making sure everything was where it should be. She put on a locking charm that McGonagall had taught her in case someone tried to snoop in her belongings. With a shiver of nerves, she allowed the house-elf to take her things.

Walking down the stairs, she saw all of her friends sitting around the fire, laughing about nothing in particular. They all wore their Hogwarts robes for the final time, and she almost laughed at how the boys tried to fix their hair. Sirius's was down, as he wanted to wait for Bonnie's opinion on what to do with it. When he saw her, he grinned while standing.

"Hey, sweetheart. McGonagall told us it was time to head out to the Pitch. All right?" he asked, placing a kiss on her cheek.

"I'm fine. Are you keeping your hair down?"

"I am if you want me to," he replied cheekily. "Before we go, we have a final stop—the boys and I. We'll meet you out there?" She nodded as he turned to the other three-quarters of the Marauders. "Ready, lads?"

James wiggled his eyebrows at Bonnie as he passed, discreetly showing her the map in his hand. "Gotta pass it on, love," he whispered, allowing Sirius to throw an arm around him. "Off we go!"

The girls still sitting by the fire all snorted at their antics. Alice stood first, realizing they must be off or they'll be late. She narrowed her eyes at the back of Peter since he was the last one. "Where are they off to, to get their prank ready?"

Lily shook her head, locking arms with Bonnie. "No, no. James did not tell me much, but he said their prank is ready to go."

"The map," Bonnie said with a grin. "I think they're leaving it for Filch to find."

James, Sirius, Remus, and Peter were making as much noise as possible. They were yelling in the hallways, running up and down corridors. They were jumping on walls, grinning mischievously at any Hogwarts student they passed since the other years were going to watch the graduation if they wanted. The boys felt like children again in their first year... especially when Filch and Mrs. Norris came barrelling around the corner.

"WHAT do you four think you're doing!" He growled out. "Always causing trouble, you lot are. I'll be more than happy to see you out of this castle... finally! Get to the Quidditch Pitch, or I'll have you expelled!"

"Can you really expel us, Mr. Filch?" James prodded with a grin.

"I mean, we are graduating in less than ten minutes, you know," Sirius added, a twinkle in his eye that screamed 'no good.'

Filch gave them a look. "Try me."

"Ooh, I think we've finally met our match, boys," James said, mocking a worried look. "We best be off—oh no, Moony! Why'd you drop that!?"

Filch grinned at the parchment falling from the tall boy's robe. It obviously held sentimental value to the prats, he thought. Scooping it up from the ground, Filch wore a triumphant look. "Now! Go to the Quidditch Pitch!"

Remus gave a mock-upset look now. "You sure we can't have that back?"

Filch pocketed the map. "No! It belongs to me, now."
