Magnus was well pleased with himself as he walked down the corridor towards the library, his little prank had done just as he had planned it to do, his duel with Draco was all but yesterday's news, and would soon be forgotten about.
It wouldn't be long until everyone forgot and he could stop laying low to avoid attention.
But he knew that he would have to set things up so that if he needed it in the future the heat could be taken off him should he need it done again.
And that's precisely why he was on his way to the library with a goal in mind, recruitment.
Entering the library it only took him a couple of seconds to spot his targets and grinned as he walked over to the table that Harry and Neviell were sharing and quickly putting up a silencing spell over them with a quick wave of his wand and a muttered spell.
A sound muffling charm that he had figured out over the last few days in between his studies.
He didn't want anyone listening in now, did he?
"So lads, what's the topic of discussion today," Magnus said with a grin on his face, "how about that weather in the great hall aye?" he joked.
"That was brilliant, did you see Snape's face," Neviell grinned back, "I didn't think he could that red."
"I think that was the rain Neville," Harry snorted, "I never thought I'd see him dressed in pink."
"Yeah, that was genius, almost like these marauders had it out for him in particular." Magnus smirked.
"Well I can't blame them if they did," Harry agreed, "I don't think anyone likes Snape."
Magnus smirked and nodded, "well the first generation marauders certainly didn't." He stated openly.
"You know about them?" Neville asked as both he and Harry looked at Magnus in shock.
Magnus smirked, "Of course I do, who do you think set up this morning's entertainment." He mused, enjoying their shocked expressions.
"That was you!" Harry asked, a gobsmacked expression on his face.
Magnus nodded, "yeah, I was getting a little annoyed with all the attention from the duel with Draco, so I thought I'd give the school something else to talk about for a while."
"Who were they then? The marauders?" Neville asked as he sat forward, "you said you knew of them and that you're the second generation, was your dad one?"
Magnus shook his head, "no he wasn't, Harry's dad was though." He stated as he crossed his arms.
"My dad!" Harry replied with his eyes wide hearing about his father.
Magnus chuckled, "yeah, he along with his friends, Remus Lupin, Peter Pettigrew and my uncle, Sirius Black, were known as the marauders in their later school years, they went by the names, Prongs, Mooney, Wormtail and Padfoot, and pulled a load of pranks on faculty and students alike in their hay day."
"That sounds bloody brilliant," Neville said, his eyes wide and a huge grin on his face.
"How do you know about this?" Harry asked, wanting to know.
Magnus shrugged, "I read about them in my dad's journal, he discovered their little group but didn't out them, something about not wanting to be a target of their pranks." He stated, and it was true.
He had actually discovered Regulus Black Journal when he was exploring his bedroom in the month before, it had been one of the books he had read over the month.
"Some of the things he wrote about them were funny, but some of the things were a little worrisome."
"How so?" Neville asked, his grin falling.
"From how my dad's journal described them, some of their pranks were harmless fun, but a number of their pranks that targeted individuals weren't so. " Magnus stated.
"They sounded more like bullying described as pranks, picking on some people out of pettiness and revenge because of who their families were associated with."
"They also apparently didn't like Snape at all, and targeted him frequently, which would explain his dislike for you, Harry."
Harry frowned, "still doesn't excuse him," he said, seeming a little down at the thought of his father being a bully, even if he was doing it to Snape.
"No it doesn't, the man's just petty in taking his anger out on you for things that happened well before you were born." Magnus agreed with him before grinning, "so what do you say to actually giving him a reason to be petty now~"
Both boys looked at him at that statement with confused looks, "what do you mean?" Harry asked.
Magnus smirked, "what I mean is how about you two join me in picking up where your dad and my uncle left off, I'm only one guy, I can't bring back the marauders memories all on my own after all, we can pick up where they left off, only within reason."
"We don't single anyone out for lone pranks unless we all agree on it, we won't bully anyone like that, and we keep each other on task and make the second generation of marauders even better than the first."
Harry was shocked at the suggestion but the more he listened the more that shock grew to excitement as a grin came to his face.
"I'm in, if Snape is going to act like a prat towards me then I may as well give him a reason to do so."
Magnus nodded happily at his acceptance before looking at Neville who was looking down with a concerned look on his face, "what's up Nev?" he asked, wondering why he was down.
"Why me?" Neville asked with a soft voice, "why would you ask me to join you two, Harry's dad was a marauder, and so was your uncle, but why would you ask me…. I'm just a…." He went to continue only for Magnus to cut him off.
