"I'm bored. Bored. Bored. Bored." Naomi Andrews sighed heavily as she tucked a stray lock of her hair behind her ear. Her friend, Lily Evans, who was sitting beside her, nodded in agreement.

Just then, a group of rowdy boys burst into the Gryffindor common room.

"Oh, great. The Marauders." Lily made a face.

Lily Evans was a hot-tempered, happy-go-lucky witch who was vertically challenged. She had sparkling emerald green eyes and red hair that hinted at her temper. A few freckles were splashed across her nose. She was one of the prettiest witches in Hogwarts.

Her friend, Naomi Andrews, had hazel brown hair, accompanied by grayish- blue eyes. She was athletic but was almost as petite as Lily.

Lily and Naomi both disliked the Marauders immensely.

The head of the Marauders, James Potter, had tousled jet-black hair that never seemed to be able to straighten out properly. In the female population of Hogwarts' eyes, he was incredibly cute with his chocolate brown eyes. He was one of the best players in the Gryffindor Quidditch team and was a Chaser.

Another Marauder was Sirius Black. His stylish dark hair and blue eyes captured the hearts of many girls, Lily and Naomi being exceptions, of course.

Remus Lupin was the quieter member of the group. He had sandy blonde hair and eyes that were brown with gray specks in them. Although he was not as reckless as James and Sirius, he was a Marauder nonetheless and enjoyed a good prank once in a while.

The last Marauder was Peter Pettigrew. He was a short, plump boy with watery blue eyes and brownish-blonde hair. He was often stuffing his face with food and usually went unnoticed by the people around him. (Hmph. I don't like Peter one bit. He's EVIL!!!)

"Oooooh. look who's here! Tiger Lily and her little friend, Naomi!" James exclaimed happily to his friends.

"I'm not Tiger Lily!" Lily turned an interesting shade of crimson. Naomi did not look too happy at being labeled Lily's 'little friend' either.

"Of course you're Tiger Lily! You're Lily and behave like a tiger. Need I go on?" James asked in a lazy drawl.

"Did someone say they were bored? Well, we're here to 'unbore' you!" Sirius bounded up to the two girls.

James yawned. "Wow. The boredom must definitely be catching."

"I know! Let's do a crossword puzzle!" Lily brightened up and pulled a sheet of paper out of her book satchel.

Everybody crowded around. "What's a crossword puzzle?" Sirius was asking, clueless. Everyone else ignored him.

So??? How is it? Like it? Hate it? Review, please! And the reason Sirius does not know what a crossword puzzle is is because he has never done one before, to anyone who is wondering. Anyway, keep in mind this is only a prologue and that if no one reviews because it's so crummy, I'll not continue it. Okay, now go and submit a review!!! :D
