James

My best friend Sirius and I were packing up for our final year at Hogwarts. Woo! Seventh year: what we have spent our entire lives preparing for. Yes, we are planning to the order upon graduation, but after that is Quidditch city baby!

Sirius is like my brother, we have been best friends since the moment we met on the Hogwarts express before my first year. But now he lives with me because of his horrible parents and we’re like actual brothers! I tried to urge him to bunk with me in my room, but he took the room down the hall instead. Disappointing.

I threw in all of my Quidditch attire because I am captain this year. I also threw in necessities like my uniform, pajamas, and all my hair products. “Where is the bloody invisibility cloak?” I ask myself because now it seemed like even the cloak turned invisible.

My dad gave it to me before my first year, so it’s not like he would steal it back. My mom is shopping right now so she couldn’t have it. That must mean that Sirius does!

I throw open my bedroom door and march to Sirius’s room. I knock on the door, “Pads! Do you have my invisibility cloak?”

In response, I hear hushed whispers, “Moo– go now!”

“Tomorrow!”

I heard scurrying and then Sirius opened the door looking all nervous but had a grin on his face, “Heyy Prongs. Your invisibility cloak, I don’t know where it is. WE SHOULD LOOK DOWNSTAIRS.”

“I don’t know why you yelled that last part. But okay, lets look.”

We walked downstairs with Sirius frantically looking around himself like a cat, but I don’t blame him. I want to find my invisibility cloak as well.

“James,” Sirius stopped me from walking, “I just want to say that I appreciate you letting me stay the past year. I really feel at home,” I heard a door slam.

“Umm, yeah, no problem mate. Now let’s go look.”

“Yes, lets,” we walked down the flight of stairs and headed to the front door where I saw the cloak lying on the ground.

“Hm,” I picked it up, “I wonder how it ended here.”

“It’s magic, maybe it teleported.”

“Maybe?” I look onto our dining room table to see Tales of Beedle the Bard. “Wow, it’s been so long since I read these,” I picked up the book.

“I never read them,” Sirius chimed in.

“Really?”

“Yeah, my mum thought childrens books were dumb for you know, children to read.”

“Of course, well, we can read it.”

And we did. We sat on the living room couch and read a children’s book. It was quite enjoyable. Sirius seemed practically immersed, “Wait,” he said once we finished, “the deathly hallows, that’s familiar.”

“Why?”

Sirius pointed his head to the invisibility cloak that sat next to us.

“You don’t think-”

“It makes a lot of sense though. No one has ever caught us while we were under this cloak. Maybe even death couldn’t find us.”

“So, if I am in possession of a bloody hallow. Does it mean that these tales are real?”

“Quite possibly.” Sirius smirked, “Prongs, I think I have an idea.”

Sirius

James and his family were kind enough to let me stay. I am so lucky to be able to live with him after the countless rejection I’ve faced from my own family, he has become the brother I’ve always needed after feeling like I’m in a family where I don’t belong.

I go with James to the Platform 9 ¾ station and Remus is already there. What I truly ire about Remus is that he’s always prepared. I’ve packed my uniform, my clothes, my wand, and everything I might need. Yet Remus is always early, he is one step ahead of me and I love that he’s a lot more organised, it balances us out, as though he’s the yin to my yang.

For a while, I hadn’t been up to my usual tricks. That’s because Remus had truly changed me. I still have a sense of adventure but I also want to do well in life as I feel it would secure my future with the boy who has a special place in my heart. Usually I’m not for soppy love letters, or poetry, yet he is like a poem. In Harmony with me.. The beautiful symphony that makes me smile as we all go through the platform together. We all get onto the train and find our compartment.

Remus looks at me and smiles.

I look back at him and smile, before offering him a sweet. Of course I offer James one as well and they both thank me with more beaming smiles than before.

“It’s time to make our mark this year, isn’t it boys?”

All of them nod and we talk about our futures. We know that our futures are bright as long as we have each other on this path that we call life.

The journey does not feel like any time at all with my friends and Remus there. We have plenty to talk about since we are in our final year after all. All of us are excited with a hint of nerves. But we know that no matter what risks we take, we have each other. So there’s no need to fear or weep, for we are all in this together. That’s what it all boils down to; love and friendship, every step of the way. Nobody gets lost, nobody is left behind.

It wouldn’t be a year without my Mischief being Managed. So I decide that I will take Dumbledore’s wand. What could possibly go wrong?

We all step off the platform and get to Dumbledore’s office, he is there with his companion Fawkes the Phoenix, alongside the beautiful wand itself. All I have to do is disarm him, it shouldn’t be too difficult, right? I’ve read up on it, after all.

I retrieve my wand from my robe pocket. “Expelliarmus!” I shout, with a clear intonation in my voice. The wand is now mine and I just hope and pray that we are able to use it. So I’ve been told by James, this wand is very powerful. I get used to the feeling of it and return my wand to my pocket. We came across the wand by chance. At first we did think about it being a Hallow, then it clicked that since it was in Dumbledore’s office, he had ownership of it. It was perhaps something we could have overlooked, but since Dumbledore seemed protective over it, that only made sense given how powerful the wand would be, especially since it took a spell for me to gain any ownership over it. Part of me felt bad for Dumbledore, the other half of me was excited for what adventures this would bring. All of us getting to experience the Elder Wand firsthand, that is certainly a good way to truly experience an eventful final year. There was somebody else I’d rather spend it with than my best pals, Moony, Wormtail, and Prongs.

Remus

I was shocked when Sirius said he wanted to steal Dumbledore’s wand. It makes sense how the deathly hallows are real and that James’s cloak is one of them. His dad, Monty has always come in with powerful stuff. But, if it really was ed down from generations then James is distantly related to the man in the book. Of course he is.

Ever since Sirius and I started dating over the summer, he decided to back off a bit on pranks. Apparently, he would not back off for this one though. It wasn’t really a prank though was it?

To be honest, I am also curious about Dumbledore’s wand possibly being the elder wand. It makes sense that he would have it. He’s Dumbledore and this school is in possession of a ton of rare artifacts, some of which we stole when we were younger.

Sirius took the wand without much of a fight and that surprised me because Dumbledore is a powerful wizard, probably due to the wand. I wonder how he got it.

Sirius never fails to surprise me. He has always been more outgoing and daring than I am, but he balances me out. I used to be afraid to do pranks until he encouraged me and now I come up with most of the ideas. Once, he made me ride with him on his flying motorcycle. He makes my life more chaotic, but he also makes it more enjoyable. He makes me want to live my life to the fullest and if that means stealing the elder wand, then let that be.

After we stole it, we ran into our dorm and decided to mess around with it.

Sirius gave his signature smirk, “Okay, so, as of now I have ownership of the wand until someone disarms me-”

“Expelliarmus,” Peter made the wand fly out of his hand and onto the ground. Then Peter walked over and picked it up, “it’s mine now,” he smiled.

That came out of nowhere. But that’s Peter, always very sneaky.

Sirius’s jaw dropped.

“Oh Peter!” James beamed, “You traitor. Now, let’s see how this works.”

Peter held the wand in front of him, “Okay, so from what I , this wand is crazy powerful. It apparently heals other wands that are broken.”

“Let me try,” Sirius snapped Peter’s wand in half, “now we’ll see if that’s the actual elder wand.”

Peter scoffed, “Wow, okay?” He pointed the elder wand at his wand, “Repairo,” his wand then mended himself.

“Wow, that is the elder wand,” I whispered.

Sirius turned to me and smiled, “You know what Moony? You can have a turn before I go.”

I blushed, “Really?”

“Really,” I swore I saw him blush too. Can anyone confirm?

“Aw, when can I go?” James pouted.

“Last,” Sirius answered.

I took the wand from Peter who reluctantly let me have it. In my arms, it felt like it was an extension of my hand, kind of like my wand feels. But the elder wand made me feel powerful. I slowly put my fingers around it all the sudden not knowing what I should be doing with the wand.

“Do you need some help Moony?” Sirius asked, making my heart flutter.

“Yes please.”

Sirius wrapped his hand around mine which was holding the wand, “Easy now,” my hand felt chills in response. “Just say whatever comes to your mind..”

“Lumos Maxima,” suddenly the whole room was in light, so much light that that was all we could see.

“Ahh! Turn it off!” James yelled.

“Gah! Okay! Nox!” Suddenly the room turned to normal and everyone was rubbing their eyes.

“You’re silly,” Sirius ruffled my hair.

“Are you guys dating or something?” Peter asked.

“Why would you say that?” I asked.

Peter tilted his head and made a really? face.

“Ugh, yeah we have been.. Since the summer,” I answered. We were incredibly obvious.

“Hey!” Sirius shoved me, “I am not an ugh.”

“I’m just saying ugh because we were obvious!”

“Really? You two are dating?” James did a double take.

“James, do you when you lost your invisibility cloak?” Sirius asked.

“Yeah, that was weird.”

“It’s because I used it to sneak in and out of the house,” I answered. I am so glad that James is clueless yet it baffles me.

James’s jaw dropped, “WAS THAT WHY I HEARD SCURRYING ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THAT DOOR?”

“BECAUSE I WAS TRYING TO HELP HIM SNEAK OUT WITHOUT BEING CAUGHT!”

“Wow, you two are just unbelievable,” he put his hands up. “Okay, now let me see the wand!”

“Not until I go,” Sirius took the wand from me, “yoink!” Then he pointed the elder wand at the map, “Wingardium leviosa,” not just the map but the whole nightstand went up, “Woah..” then he carefully placed everything back down.

“My turn! Expelliarmus!” James took the wand. “What to do, what to do,” what James decided to do was use a hair extension spell on himself which made it grow to the floor and Sirius ended up having to cut it off.

Peter

I wasn’t that surprised that Remus and Sirius were dating. The way that they looked at each other told me that they thought the world of each other.

When I gained control of the Elder Wand, I felt powerful. For a long time I felt disconnected from my friends, but then I ed we were all in this together. Before the Marauders, it was difficult for me to make friends. I am uncertain of my future but a future with them is one that is bright and I hope we get up to adventures just like we have been for the past seven years.

The wand was under my possession and I enjoyed holding it for a while, then it was back to James’s control again. I did not mind that at all because it was so intriguing to see the many uses the wand could have.

Once I could use the wand, I realised that it didn’t matter what we were doing. I do not understand why I ever felt disconnected from them. Perhaps it was because I was the smallest and I trailed along behind them. They were so confident, something that seemed out of reach for me. Yet I am in my final year, finally feeling like I belong, resting in the knowledge that my friends don’t care that I trail along behind, they always wait for me. Especially Remus. He was the first friend I ever made as a shy first year, to have all of them in my life is a blessing. The wand taught me a very powerful lesson. But perhaps we don’t need shiny objects to feel accomplished, we need friendship and connection. I am the most connected to my friends that I ever have been.

“Perhaps we ought to return the wand” is what I said, after I had finished laughing at James’s new hair.

“I think that might be a good idea, Wormtail.” Remus had said to me, following it up with a smile.

Sirius nodded at Remus and James agreed. So we all went back to return Dumbledore’s wand before anything else happened. At least we had some fun while it lasted, it kept our evening entertaining that was for sure.

“Thank you for today, I had a good laugh.” I couldn’t stop myself from thinking about how chaotic that spell was, it was a total transformation.

I was tasked with putting the wand back and I returned it to Dumbledore’s desk. It seemed as though he was rummaging around his office looking for it. We were not ashamed of ourselves since we had a taste of our own medicine given that the power of the wand didn’t last long as it became easier to gain ownership over it. Perhaps the wand was best kept for Dumbledore to use. Whilst he was still looking, we placed it on his desk. I’m sure Dumbledore just believed it was there all along. Unless deep down, he knew. But I don’t think he would have punished us since we were in our last year. Plus there wasn’t much he could do now that the wand had safely been returned.

• Using the images i found on Pinterest, I used PhotoGrid to format them,adding a filter. I then went to Picsart, adding in a black backdrop with paper planes, before adding my photos. I then added another filter, before adding stickers ( the map, their signatures, mischief managed, and I solemnly swear I am up to no good, etc), before adding some moon and stars borders, and finally a vintage filter.
