Peter crept through the dark halls as he reached his destination. The room of requirements door was ajar, because one of the members of the group inside still hadn't arrived, thanks to Remus' stunning spell. Sure, it was a little drastic, but when the time came, it was dependent on James, Sirius, Remus and Peter's survival.
"Merlin!" Peter heard through the crack in the door, "Where the hell is she!" he recognized the voice as Gianne's. Another person, Lily, sighed.
"Well, we'll just have to start without her, then. Okay, so, we've agreed on the plan?" her voice stopped as she gave Gianne time to nod. "Okay then, it's a done deal, it happens at the ball." Peter heard Gianne laugh before a figure was seen on the other side of the door. He sprang back as it was closed. `Phew', he thought, `that was a close one!' He scurried back to the Gryffindor common room and raced up the boy's dormitory stairs where Elle had been placed after being stunned. He puffed as he bolted into the boy's room. They all turned towards him.
"Well?" James asked after a few moments of silence.
"It happens at the ball." Peter said dramatically. Sirius rolled his eyes.
"Yes, but what?" he asked. Peter shrugged and James started hitting himself on the head.
"Mate, I can't really confirm this, but I think you're gonna die." Sirius said, putting his hand on James's shoulder and pretended to cry. "It was nice knowing you, Prongs," James smirked. <
"Yes, but I think you're forgetting one thing, Padfoot," Sirius looked up.
"And what's that?"
"Usually when Evans comes up with a plan it affects all four of us." Sirius gaped in horror.
"No way! She wouldn't sink so low! Even after she ruined my beautiful face!" he said, touching his now
back-to-normal perfect face. Remus butted in.
"Oi guys, what ball? I didn't know that there was a Christmas ball." Remus then looked at Elle.
"Are we going to set her free now?"
- - - The next morning - - -
"Students," Professor Dumbledore announced in breakfast. "It may come as an inconvenience to some, who have already planned their wonderful Christmas break, but our heads have decided to show a little festivity, and host a ball. To which all third years and above can attend," a few cheers were heard from the crowd, including a few groans.
"But I already had plans-"
"I suppose I could always stay-"
"Oh my god, this is gonna be soooo much fun!"
Dumbledore laughed a bit, "Yes, well, I'll let you all get back to your breakfast," and sat down. Remus turned to Lily who was trying her best no to knock out James who was sitting beside her.
"What ball?" Lily smiled a bit.
"Well, I was going to be staying back over Christmas anyway, and I knew me and everyone else were going to be bored staying here, so I decided to organize a ball. It's a fancy dress one as well, the information's going to be posted up on the notice boards at lunch." Remus looked warily at her while James just gazed, taking in her beauty as she made every little move, including eating a piece of bacon, and then choking on it.
He gasped as she started turning purple and stood up, bringing her with him and performing the Heimlich manoeuvre on
her that he had seen on a muggle television before. Lily spluttered and removed James's hands from her waist with
force. Sitting back down, she received a glare from Gianne.
"What?" she asked. Gianne kicked her. "Ow! Gian- Oh!" Lily turned to James and smiled bitterly at him. "Thank you James." She said, before standing back up and leaving, Gianne and Elle running after her.
Gianne ran outside to see lily kicking a rock.
"Lily!" she called. Lily looked up at her and walked over. "What's your problem?" Lily groaned.
"Gi, you know I love this plan and I can't wait for it to happen, right?" Gianne nodded her on.
"But this is getting really hard! I mean, honestly, performing the Heimlich manoeuvre on me! Who does he think he is, superman?" Gianne giggled a bit.
"Well, I don't think he is, but he might look like him, later on," Lily started giggling too.
"I know, but, URGH!" she screamed, scaring a few birds. "I like bacon, as well! Now I can never eat bacon again!" Elle looked quizzically at her.
"Why?" Lily grabbed a rock and pegged it at a tree.
"Because knowing Potter, he's going to remove it from the entire great hall just so I won't choke again."

A/N: Just a short chapter that I wrote when I got bored, it doesn't really add anything new to the plotline, just when Plan Superman; going to happen, so if you didn't read all of it, it doesn't matter much ^-^
Hope you liked it, review if you like, read on when I've got the other chapters up, I've written them, I just have to do a final edit of them before posting.
