In the village of Godric's Hollow, the Potter family was just waking up on a Saturday morning. In the master bedroom, a fairly young woman with bright red hair and fierce green eyes was moving about the bedroom grabbing clothes then headed towards the bathroom for a shower. Her dark-haired husband was awakened by the water, alerting him to his wife's presence. He groaned and turned over on his other side. Just then the bathroom door opened and Lily Potter walked out in black jeans and a plain black t-shirt.

"Come on, James! We are going to be late! Megan and Harry are going to be arriving at Platform 9 ¾ in an hour! Get up and get dressed, now!" James now sat up and looked at the clock next to their bed. It read 9:53 am. He got out of bed and sauntered over to Lily who was trying to dry her hair. He stood behind her, trying to wake up completely. Thinking a shower would help, he made his way to the open bathroom door, grabbing clothes on the way. After a nice shower and getting dressed, he walked down the stairs to the kitchen to find Lily making a quick breakfast for them.

"Lily, slow down. Megan and Harry won't be happy if the first time they see their mother in 6 months, she is stressed. Everything will be fine. Where are Sirius and Remus?" He asked her, looking around. His best mates said that they were coming with them to pick up the kids. They wanted to see them too.

As if on cue, Sirius and Remus appeared with a loud CRACK. They appeared laughing at something that Sirius said. James not wanting to be out of the loop on the joke asked them what was so funny.

"Sirius and I made a bet, he thinks Megan's hair is going to be red this time, but I think she's dyed black. What do you think? Or has she told you already?" Remus said.

"You know she hates it when you guys do that. I mean she is 16, leave her alone about it. Anyways, I'm with Sirius on this one, she's defiantly dyed it black again." James said with a laugh.

You see James and Lily have two kids, Megan and Harry. Megan is 16 and in September going into her 7th year at Hogwarts. Harry is 14 and is going into his 5th year at Hogwarts. Megan's 17th birthday is coming up in August, while Harry's 15th is in July. James and Lily have been married for about 17 years, ever since they graduated from Hogwarts. James, Lily, Sirius and Remus are all around 34 years old. But being The Marauders they act like much younger. Megan and Harry are in Gryffindor and on the house Qudditch team. Megan is Captain, has been for the past 2 years and will be next year too, and a Chaser and Harry is Seeker. Megan has naturally red hair with blue eyes, but she changes her hair color so much she forgets what her natural color is. Harry is the spitting image of James except his eyes; he has his mother's eyes, green. Like her mother, Megan catches the eyes of many boys at school. James is very overprotective of her because of that. To add to that she also has natural talent in singing. You can catch her and her big group of friends singing while they work on homework or going over plays for Qudditch practice. She often sings at the school dances. Harry is, like I said, the spitting image of James, so therefore he too has a lot of admirers. His best friends are Ron Weasely, a tall redhead that is the youngest son of 7 children and has a younger sister Ginny, and Hermione Granger, a quiet bushy-haired bookworm and is Muggle-born but is the smartest witch of her year. Megan has a variety of friends, but is usually seen with Maria Lawson, Andrew Doyle and Craig Fee. They are all purebloods, but are not like the other pureblooded families. They don't care if you are a Muggle-born or not. Anyways back to the story.

Lily came into the kitchen letting them know that breakfast was ready and that they had better eat quickly if they are to be on time. So they went into the kitchen to eat and then Apparated to King's Cross and then walked through the wall between platform's 9 and 10. There were parents already waiting for their children to come home for the summer.

Finally, a few minutes later, the Hogwarts Express pulled into the station. Lily started to jump around anxiously trying to see over people's heads.

"Lily calm down! They will come to us." Sirius said, and despite himself walked through the crowd to go find his little niece and nephew. Sirius couldn't wait to see them; he especially enjoyed having verbal sparring with Megan who could sometimes give him a run for his money. He looked around trying to find them, finally spotting Harry dragging his trunk with his snowy owl behind him.

"Harry! Over here!" Sirius shouted over the crowd. Harry made his way over to him. "Where's your sister?"

Harry shrugged. "I was just looking for her myself. We got separated on the train. Where are Mom and Dad?" Sirius pointed in their direction and saw Harry walk over to them. Then he heard Megan telling everyone to back up.

"Her guys, can you move back a little bit? Maria and I are going to sing for you. Ok? Thanks guys." He caught sight of the redhead talking to Maria's blonde head. All of a sudden they started to sing Love Is Wicked by Brick and Lace. From his spot he saw Lily and James just shake their heads, but smile adoringly at their daughter. When the song ended, the girls gathered their things to the sound of applause that the loudest seemed to be coming from the guys. James noticed this and had to have Lily restrain him.

Sirius just laughed and wolf whistled to get Meg's attention. It worked. Her head snapped up at his whistle and spotted him immediately in the crowd. She dropped her things by Maria and ran to him.

"Sirius! Oh My God! I've missed you so much! All of you guys! Where is everybody?" She asked launching herself into his open arms. Sirius let her go and went over to pick up her trunk and her guitar case. Maria picked up her little black puppy, Padfoot, whom she named after the person who gave him to her, Sirius. He gave her the dog for Christmas 6 months ago. Sirius, being her Godfather, led her over to her parents and Remus.

"There's my baby girl! Haha! How was your year?" James ran and picked up his daughter in a bear hug and swung her around, before finally setting her back on her feet. She ran to her mother next, receiving another, but not as forceful hug, hug from her. She whispered in her mother's ear, saying that she had so much to tell her in private when they got home. Nodding her mother let her go to Remus, who was giving Sirius something that looked like Galleons.

"What was that all about? Guys, what did you bet on and who won?" She said looking at the both of them suspiciously.

"Your hair color. I bet it would be back to red and Sirius thought it was going to black again. As you can see, I lost." Remus said as he pulled her into a tight embrace. She hugged him back laughing at their habit of making bets, usually about her.

"Ok guys, can we go home now? I want to unpack and let Hedwig out." Harry said, impatiently. James picked up Megan's things, letting Padfoot run around, yapping at their feet. They walked through the wall and on to King's Cross. They then Apparated home, Harry with Remus, and Megan, picking up her dog, went with Lily. They arrived outside the cottage at Godric's Hollow. They walked inside and the kids went upstairs to their rooms to unpack.
