Okay well this site is now offically dead, and I know it is sad and such, and we are sorry for not keeping up on activity. But anyway we have moved to a new home. It is once more Mauders, but it is all simple, and we woould love for you all to hop over, and make this site not die

It's funny the things you notice when you really take the time to look for them. Like for instance, a man may walk past a particular deserted moor and see absolutely nothing, yet someone else who knew it wasn't deserted, would look across the moor and see a large and apparently derelict castle. Then said person would suddenly remember something they had to buy at the shops and would quickly hurry away, forgetting they had even visited the moor, let alone seen that towering wreckage in the distance, almost as if by magic. Some might say trickery was afoot, but us intelligent onces know that the castle was none other than Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry and that Dumbledore was just pretty damn good with a wand.
During the holidays, the castle is quiet and peaceful, the floors taking a breather, thankful for a rest from being run along and having dirt trod into them repeatedly. The caretaker has nothing to do and so works part time at a local supermarket. Taking a holiday doesn't pay the bills you know. Everyone else is enjoying time off, busy draining their heads to make room for even more knowledge to be crammed inside. But empty, the castle craves life and the wind whipping around the deserted corridors begs for the presence of the witches and wizards that call it their home during term time.
Enter students.
This year is unlike any other. This year is the Marauder's seventh and final year at Hogwarts. This news may bring a tear to some people's eyes and a wicked grin might appear on others. The Marauder's are loved and hated by many and it's no surprise what with the way they galavant around Hogwarts causing trouble and leaving chaos in their wake. But perhaps this year everything will change. James Potter has decided to quit the pranks and concentrate on school work, this being the only way that Lily Evans would ever think about going out with him. Quite the contrary to his friend James, Sirius has upped the anti and now seems to be getting through the girls at Hogwarts quicker than ever before. Perhaps he has finally realised that he is not going to make it through all the females unless he really puts on a spurt. Peter Pettigrew is a suspicious one and doesn't seem to know where his loyalties lay. Does he remain with the Marauders where he is slightly higher up the social ladder than he would be alone, or does he run along and join the Slytherins who seem to be up to something big. The only person that hasn't changed really is Remus Lupin. Having read all the books in the library already, Remus does have a lot more spare time this year but is at a loss as to what to do with it. But perhaps he won't need to find a way to amuse himself what with something stirring up within Slytherin and the Marauder's need to get to the bottom of it all.
It is also the final year for the main Slytherin gang, and boy won't they let anyone forget it. Striding around the school like they own the place. Only able to date those of pure blood doesn't leave the Slytherin's with much choice. Hence why Bellatrix and Rodolphus are dating, along with Narcissa and Lucius. This year duels between themselves and the Gryffindor's seems to have increased, anything for just a little more power. But now there seems to be a little something extra behind the attacks, they no longer seem to be just in the name of fun. Something seems to be brewing outside of Hogwarts, rumours pouring in from the outside world and scaring the faint hearted and paranoid students. Only the Slytherins seem to be unaffected which leads people to believe that they probably have something to do with it. But the Snakes are not talking and no information can be gotten out of them.
To what lengths will the Marauder's go to find out what is going on? With all these changes happening, it is hard to remember what it was like When You Were Young.
