Disclaimer: We do not own either Harry Potter or the plot (thank you so much crazyroninchic! We love you!) We do...myself more than Psalm...own Raven. You may have seen her around before. She is a real Mary-Sue...I created her YEARS ago. Rather embarrassing, no?
Okay, this was initially on my account (CoalTrain) but we're moving it. So you, once we catch up to where I am on there, I'll delete it. I'll post something there so that those who read it on there can switch over.
The Notebook
Chapter One
"Have you guys seen my notebook?"
While Peter was once again asking his friends for perhaps the fifteenth time, neither of them seemed to be paying any attention to him. Remus had his nose in a book, furiously studying for their N.E.W.T.s. Lily would have been doing the same, but was distracted frequently by James, who was lying on the table trying to get her attention from her cram session onto him. She was hardly paying attention to him, however, and made a point of poking his hand with her quill to get him to stop.
The redhead, however, at least had the courtesy to smile at him quickly. "No, Peter. Sorry, did you check at the front desk?" James frowned as she once again was occupied with 'Potions: An Art of Mystery'.
Sirius was off trying to sneak into the restricted section for the third time that day, and was soon ushered back into their huddle by a very angry librarian who didn't waste time in smacking the mischievous Gryffindor upside the hide before returning to her desk.
"Man, never mind eyes in the back of her head. That woman has eyes coming out of her entire body," he glowered before glancing back. "Do you think she'd notice if I went under the book cases instead of over them this time? If I took out the section about water fungus I think I could squeeze through…"
Remus, however, let out a sigh before slamming his book shut. "Padfoot, if you make one more attempt to get in there, I swear I will drag you out of there myself…by your ear."
Making what could be very close to a canine whimper, Sirius glowered at Remus before crossing his arms and sighing. "Fine. Then I'll just preoccupy myself with the section on magic and the female body."
As he stormed off, a slight air of pride in himself, neither boys made an attempt to stop him, although Lily did glare and threaten a fate worse than death. Ignoring her, however, the black haired boy browsed through the selection, a smirk on his face. That is, until he found it. A feminine type squeal could be heard throughout the entire library, and a loud 'Quiet!' could be heard from the librarian, but that didn't stop Sirius from coming from the row of bookshelves in a rush. In one hand he held a book at arms length, hanging onto it only by pinching it before him while turning his head away from the sight.
"Peter, I think I found your notebook."
It wasn't a book. It was a notebook…a rather fuzzy, pink one at that. On the cover was an array of hearts, lace, and ribbons, not to mention 'beloved', 'soul mates', and other such phrases were embellished in red. In bold letters was written 'A Luv That Lasts 4Eva'
Sirius snickered and James smiled softly, while Lily and Remus just rolled their eyes. Peter himself shook his head, crossing his arms. "That's not it, mine's blue."
This caused every one of them to pause, glancing at Peter curiously while he spluttered and shook his head furiously. "I mean, not that mine looks like that. It's just not it…I don't have hearts or anything on mine…"
"Right…"
Frowning at Sirius' skepticism, Peter shook his head. "It's true. Mine was blue and had 'Peter Pettigrew, Year 7, Charms' written on it."
Pausing, he turned a shade of pink. He realized that he had just defended something a little too much.
Lily, however, gave him a supportive smile before glaring at Sirius. "What's inside it? Does it have a name or something?"
Blinking, Sirius had a sudden death-sentence look on his face. "Are you suggesting I read it?"
"Oh yeah…I forgot, you can't read," she rolled her eyes in frustration. Just open it up.
Sirius' voice once again got high, a pained look on his face as he shook his head frequently. "No," he protested in as defiant of tone as he could. When Lily crossed her arms, however, he suddenly sounded like a boy going through puberty. "But it's fuzzy!"
Neither of the four figures moved, and he sighed, opening it with very careful fingers, as though the book itself might contaminate him. When he finally got the first page open, however, he cringed. "I'm blind…since when did ink come in neon?" he demanded, brandishing the page for all to see. Every one of them cringed in horror, taking in the bright pink writing. Lily, however, prodded him to try and make some of it out. Gulping, he shook his head before allowing himself to calm down. Taking a look back at the pages, he managed to open his mouth, reading what he found on the first page.
The Adventures of Raven Rose Jasmine Anastasia Dreams
The Most Beautiful Girl in the World
And the Love
That Surpasses All
"Ouch!"
Looking around, Raven Dreams—or rather Raven Rose Jasmine Anastasia Dreams—found her eyes widen in shock. Where was she?
"You are at Hogwarts."
Stopping, Sirius suddenly snickered. "Wow, so are we. What a coincidence! I know what she means, N.E.W.T.s do leave you confused and in pain."
Glowering, Lily only had to shoot him a look before he surrendered.
"Right…right. Continue…"
Freezing, Raven blinked, a confused looking crossing her face. "Who are you?"
"Ah, forgive me beautiful maiden—"
Well, Raven couldn't deny that. After all, she was rather beautiful, wasn't she? Not that she'd admit it…no, she was too modest for that. Tossing her hair over her shoulder, the array of midnight black strands shone brilliantly while her bright blue orbs danced with amethyst accents.
"Wait," James this time cut in, shaking his head. "You mean to tell me that she's got blue AND purple eyes?"
"Yeah…that's impossible. I mean, who has purple eyes? Even in the wizarding world?" Lily added while laughing slightly. This girl sounded absolutely ridiculous.
"—I am Godric Gryffindor. I am a founder of Hogwarts School for Witchcraft and Wizardry. These are my co-founders: Salazar Slytherin, Rowana Ravenclaw, and Helga Hufflepuff. We have called you to come to the school because we fear a grave danger will come upon it. And we need you to help."
Giggling suddenly, Raven gave them the peace sign. "Like, no problem, homies. Tell me what you need and I'll gladly help! We're having casserole tonight…I'm definitely up for missing it!"
Chuckling from her jokes, amused by her sense of humor, all four founders joined in the bout of laughter before Salazar stepped forward. She was a muggle, but for some reason he found himself strangely attracted to her. He shook his head, however. A girl that beautiful surely wouldn't feel for him.
Gagging noises could be heard coming from the room, and they all turned to see the librarian running from the room, hand covering her mouth. The five Gryffindors, however, didn't even bat an eyelash. Instead, they sat scarred by what they were reading. The mere thought of Salazar being attracted to anyone, much less a muggle. Glancing between each other, it was clear no one actually wanted to read the story. But as Sirius started to close the cover, however, Lily suddenly snapped at him. "If you know what's good for you, you'll keep reading."
Shuddering, Sirius regretfully took a look back at the pages.
And so young…she couldn't be older than 16, although she looked 18. Yet as he admired her figure, he suddenly found him snapping out of the phase when Rowena elbowed him in the side. Frowning, he wondered slightly why he had ever found her or Helga attractive in their own ways. They couldn't compare in beauty to this one. Besides them, he noted a jealous glare from Godric
"Oh, right, of course," he stammered before turning back to the girl. "Before you enter the school, you must be prepared for drastic changes. I grant you all magical powers."
And so Godric gave her a wand—it was made of a beautiful white wood, the core consisting of all main parts: a phoenix feather, a dragon's heartstring, a unicorn's tail hair, and a strand of veela hair. Rowena insisted that all four were necessary for a witch of her extraordinary powers.
Raven blushed accordingly, although she knew in truth that it was right. She was the most powerful witch ever!
She was then given a set of brilliantly silver robes from Helga, and bestowed with the gift of wandless magic by Rowena, while Salazar made a point of saying there was nothing more he could give someone so beautiful.
Giggling once more, she shrugged her shoulders. "Well, I try," she stated modestly, tossing her hair back over her shoulders. "Am I ready, now?"
"Maiden, you were born ready," Helga declared. "Now, you will be sent to meet with your charges. Make us proud."
And as she said that, she found herself floating in nothing. She was pleased with the feeling, but grinned suddenly when she realized that she had now fallen gently into, albeit, a lap accompanied by a boy with confused eyes—ones of a beautiful smoky blue color—but was soon turned into one of desire.
"Well, hello," his dreamy voice came, and Raven found herself gaping at his sexiness. "I'm Sirius Black."
Twirling her hair in her fingers, not attempting to move, she giggled once more. "And I've been waiting for you all my life."
And miles away, across the lawn, past the Quidditch Pitch and Lake, through the Forbidden Forest, into Hogsmeade, and well into the depths of Mordor…wait, wrong franchise…a scream of terror could be heard from a very much horrified Sirius Black.
ANNOUNCEMENT: We want a new title for this, and Psalm136 and I came up with an idea. The reviewer who comes up with the best title (anonymous reviews are welcome) will be allowed to create their own Mary Sue who will make an appearance later in the story...Raven's best friend.
As a note, the "Mordor" part was a shout out to Never Leave Fanfiction Lying Around, which inspired this story. We hope you enjoy this story and let us know what you think would make it even more torturous for our favorite characters.
