MY STORY TRANSFERRED FROM the first chap probably sucks but im working on it.
One: Hogwarts again

CRASH! I skidded to a stop, almost causing Lily, my best friend to crash into me. "No, Jo, don't tell me you dropped your owl's cage again!" Lily glared testily at me and I sighed.

"Look, it's not my fault the stupid owl's so jumpy!" I countered back. I couldn't blame Lily though. Twit's cage had dropped eight times on the way to platform 9 ¾. Lily rolled her eyes and suddenly, we both burst out laughing. Yah… I know… We are crazy. I'm going to attend my 6th year at Hogwarts. Going back to Hogwarts meant I would get to see my other best friends- the Marauders! Unfortunately, Lily flatly refused to sit with them every single time, leaving me alone with them which is perfectly fine by me.

Soon, Lily went off to do her prefect duties and thus, I was left alone in your compartment. Before I could do anything, the door burst open and Sirius Black, James Potter, Peter Pettigrew walked in. Remus Lupin was, of course, on prefect duty. Sirius ran a hand through his smooth black hair and smiled at me with that somewhat charming smile of his. I found it rather disarming. It was quite intolerable that so irritating a person could be so physically prepossessing.

"And who said you could invite yourself in?" I scowled, unhappy to be broken in onto.

"Awww, come on, Jo…" Sirius flashed a smile in my direction, his charcoal black hair falling into his eyes. Of all the Marauders, Sirius and I were the closest. We had been childhood friends and neighbors but at age eleven, I had moved away. Imagine our surprise when we saw each other at Hogwarts. We were ecstatic.

"Seriously… You guys are going to have to stop doing that. I don't think I'll live through the next time you do that."

"So… Did Lily say anything about me?" James asked, waggling his eyebrows, causing me to giggle.

"If you mean, besides you being the biggest prat in the world, then no." Sirius guffawed but shut up quickly as James glared at him. I began to feel a little sorry for that poor guy. "Look, man. Why don't you move on?"

"No way… She's not just any girl… She's Lily…" James had this dreamy look on his face as he replied to my question. So much for asking. "Are you sure she didn't say anything about me?" James stared at me expectantly. I shook my head. That poor, poor guy.

We were talking for a while before I got bored and decided to shock the guys with a little something…

"I got a tattoo done you know?" Yah, can you believe it? I usually have a low threshold for pain but I survived THE TATTOING PROCESS! YAY ME!

"No way!" Sirius started his eyes wide.

"WAY!" I smirked.

"Oh, goody ole Jo has turned bad!" James yelled. I shot him a glare and lifted my right sleeve. A single sparrow was tattooed there. I was pretty proud of my animagus form. Oh yea! That's another thing! Just a few years back, I found out that the boys were secret animagus. (Except for Remus that is. I knew that he was a werewolf though he didn't know that I knew. Am I making sense?) SO anyway, I completed the learning process of being an animagus during the summer break. Oh and back to where the boys are shocked! Shutting out all thoughts, I concentrated hard and I felt two fully grown wings at my side. It was as if I had suddenly sprouted them painlessly. Grinning as best as I could with my beak, I flew out of the window riding an air thermal. It was great. Just as great as riding on a broom. After my little trip, I flew back in through the window.

Grinning nervously, I studied the boys' expressions. The boys' mouth hung open as I transformed back to my human self. "You're not the only people that are animaguses!" I gloated. Victory!

"Then… you know?" James asked uneasily. Oh yea. There is a less bright part about it too...

"Relax. I won't tell! DUH!" I couldn't resist adding that...

"I'm sorry I didn't tell you earlier…" Sirius looked apologetically at me. I shook my head and shot him my best smile to say 'it's okay'.

Then, Lily and Remus came in and I persuaded Lily to sit with them. She did but was very, very, very, very, very- OKAY OKAY! I'll stop it! I think you get my idea. Bet you think I'm mad now, right? Lily was reluctant. THERE! But really, I'm soooooooo happy for her! I always thought that she likes James a tad.

"OMG, JAMES! LOOK WHO'S HERE!" I squealed incessantly. Opps. Lily is giving me her famous murderous look! James is looking at Lily with 'that' look. Sirius's placed his hand around my waist and pulled me closer in. I was used to him doing that though, but he had been doing this more so now. Should I be worried? Nah. I mean, you know how Sirius behaves around ladies.

"Siri, I think you can let go of me now, we're there." I muttered, fumbling with Twit's lock.

"As if."
