Chapter 63: Bombing I

Wednesday, January 26, 1972.

That day, the marauders woke up excited and nervous, as it would be the day of the group's second big prank. They had already decided that they would do it after classes were over since that would be the time when most Slytherin students would be in the common room.

However, their main target is Rabastan Lestrange and his gang. So once the class period is over, they should follow him, and once he enters the common room start the bombing. They couldn't pull the prank and have Rabastan be somewhere else at that very moment.

They also wanted to stink bomb his dorm, so once inside the room, they should find his dorm, and the best way was to follow him.

As for the marauders who would infiltrate and execute the prank there would be three: James, Sirius, and Lupin. Even though the invisibility cloak would fit four people, it was very uncomfortable and would be very risky when the Slytherin common room was in chaos.

Peter preferred not to enter the lion's den, where all his enemies were. He was afraid, so he sighed with relief when he learned that he wouldn't have to follow the others.

On the other hand, Toby, although he was afraid to enter the common room where all the Slytherin students were, was eager to enter, but James, Sirius, and Lupin had a better command of the Fumos charm than he did.

At the end of the class period, James, Sirius, and Lupin ran to find the invisibility cloak and then began searching the castle for Rabastan. They searched for twenty minutes and found no trace of him or his gang.

"Where the hell is that guy when you need him?" asked Sirius, annoyed under the cloak. Whenever he wants to be quiet he crosses him, and now that he wants to find him, he's nowhere to be seen.

"We haven't looked in the library yet," said Lupin, and they started heading for the library.

As they were passing the sixth floor, Sirius suddenly stopped them, "Look over there!" he said, pointing his finger. James and Lupin could see their victim entering the boys' bathroom.

They quickly walked and entered the bathroom just before the door closed. They could see Rabastan choose one of the ajar doors, enter, and carefully close. The three boys under the cloak could hear the muffled sound of the lock.

"Don't tell me he's going to shit...?" asked Sirius in a low tone looking at the door where Rabastan stood behind. With no choice, they had to wait patiently for him.

Within seconds there was a loud and spontaneous concert of sounds coming from the bathroom stall where Rabastan was.

James, Sirius, and Lupin had expressions rarely seen on their faces. On the one hand, Sirius wanted to burst out laughing and bombard him with stink bombs right then and there. Lupin had an uncomfortable expression and James had an expression as if he witnessed something he shouldn't have seen or rather heard.

"What the hell did he eat to shit so loudly?" asked Sirius in a low tone holding in his laughter.

Rabastan's farting continued for almost a minute until it was finally ceasing. The chain was heard and the door opened. Rabastan's expression was stoic as if nothing had happened there.

'This shameless...' thought Sirius angrily for some reason. Rabastan washed his hands quietly and walked out of the bathroom while being followed by three people. Luckily for the marauders, he went straight towards their common room.

Rabastan began to descend a series of stone steps until he reached the depths of the dungeons. He walked a little further until he came to a stone wall adorned with a portrait of a snake.

"Disgusting," growled Sirius.

"Pureblood," said Rabastan, looking at the portrait which slowly opened revealing a passage leading to the common room.

The boy entered. James and the others hurried before the portrait closed. They walked tensely and watched intently. Finally, they had the Slytherin common room in front of them.

The room was dungeon-like with rough stone walls and ceiling, from which hung round, greenish lamps with chains. A fire crackled under an elaborately carved mantelpiece, and several Slytherin lounged around it.

James was the first time he had ever seen a common room of another house, and was glad for the day he was selected to Gryffindor. The atmosphere was very gloomy and depressing, with the walls rocky and everything a dull green color.

The atmosphere was quiet, although there were many students since classes were over. Everyone was quiet, very different from Gryffindor.

"I'm glad I broke the family tradition," whispered Sirius. Glad he didn't have to live in this common room. To his delight, he could see at a table his cousin Narcissa next to some friends chatting quietly.

James sighed in relief when he didn't see Gwen or Emily anywhere.

"Come on. Rabastan's on the move," whispered Lupin, and they began to follow him, careful not to bump into anyone.

The three of them followed him somewhat tense and with their eyes wide open. If they were discovered they would be in trouble.

Rabastan went up to his dormitory. However, James and the others didn't go in with him. They just stared at the door.

"Barriera silence," whispered James waving his wand, which was a bit difficult as he had the cloak over him, luckily he managed to cast the charm which encompassed the three boys and a bit more.

"What a convenient charm. How long does it last?" asked Sirius in a normal tone.

"More than fifty minutes," replied James.

"As soon as Rabastan comes out, you two will cast Fumos, and I'll start the bombardment. Follow the plan," said Lupin as he took out the potion and took a sip, then passed it to Sirius, who did the same, and lastly James.

With everything ready, the three of them stood silently staring at the door. The corridors weren't very big, with two Fumos spells they could easily fill them with smoke. Lupin was already holding a pair of dungbombs in both hands, ready to act, a little sweat could be seen on his forehead.

After almost fifteen minutes, the handle moved, and the door slowly opened, revealing the face of Rabastan, who was talking to Avery and Mulciber.

"We must find a good Jinx in the library and test it on those stupid Gryffindor boys," said Rabastan with a slight smile, remembering how he tested a Jinx on a Gryffindor boy a few days ago.

"Fumos!" exclaimed James and Sirius at the same time. From their wands, a large amount of smoke began to pour out. At first, the cloak held it back, but this was short-lived, it began to seep out from underneath quickly, allowing them to remove the cloak, as they would not be seen.

Before Mulciber could answer his friend, he saw a scene that puzzled him. A large amount of smoke filled the corridors within seconds, "What the hell?" he exclaimed. Rabastan and Avery had noticed it too.

Lupin, who had already removed his cloak, threw the first dungbomb in the direction of Rabastan and his friends. Although he couldn't see them because of all the smoke, he had already prepared himself and knew where to aim.

The small sphere hit Rabastan's face, who couldn't see it. He only felt a small blow on his forehead.

BOOM!

To Rabastan's bad luck, after the bomb hit his forehead it exploded. A pungent and disgusting smell entered the nostrils of the boy and Mulciber and Avery, who were standing close by.

"What the fuck is this smell?" cried Rabastan in confusion. The smell even made him gag, it was so horrible. However, he didn't have time to think and kept cursing.

BOOM!

BOOM!

BOOM!

Lupin threw three more stink bombs, hitting the three Slytherin boys and causing the smell to coalesce and multiply. The smell of the stink bombs entered Rabastan's room and began to spread throughout the hallway.

James, Sirius, and Lupin had heavy-duty plugs in their noses. They couldn't be knocked out after dropping a couple of stink bombs.

"Who dares!" shouted Rabastan knowing this was a person's action. It was not a good idea to open his mouth, as the putrid smell entered him.

'This is for Toby, you bastard!' thought Sirius, joining in the barrage.

BOOM!

BOOM!

The bombardment continued, many of those stink bombs entering Rabastan's dormitory which had the door open.

"Run!" shouted Mulciber as he tried to get to the common room. The room was no longer habitable. Despite the smoke that covered the entire hallway, it wasn't too difficult to guide himself as there weren't many possible paths.

"Cof, cof!" coughed Rabastan repeatedly after leaving the corridor and reaching the common room. Besides him, Mulciber, and Avery there were two more boys, who had to run out of the room because of the foul smell.

The behavior of Rabastan and the others drew the attention of some students in the common room who looked at them strangely.

Rabastan looked down the smoke-filled corridor. The smell had luckily not reached here. His expression turned ugly when he saw that out of the white smoke came a small brown sphere. Luckily this time it didn't hit him.

However, this was not all, a large amount of small brown spheres started to come out of the smoke thrown at a great speed, reaching different parts of the common room.

This was just the beginning.
