Chp. 1: Another Year at Hogwarts

Another year at Hogwarts. Students of all ages were climbing onto the Hogwarts Express, waving goodbye to their parents, a few mothers calling after them, suddenly remembering a forgotten book that had been left in the entryway at home and how they would send it with the family owl as soon as they got home.

Another year at Hogwarts. First years were searching for compartments that didn't hold unpleasant rich looking children that would most certainly end up in Slytherin. A confused first year that would most likely end up in Hufflepuff found himself in the Prefects compartment. A destined Gryffindor found herself sitting next to a unhappy looking boy (deifinitely a Ravenclaw) holding a large brown cat.

Another year at Hogwarts. Only, for Lily Evans and her friends, it would be their last year.

"Can you believe that we won't be doing this next year? This is our last year! No more will we buy things from the trolley when Madame Firna comes down the hall. We won't be able to go and spy on the Marauders while they change into their robes! We won't even be able to tell Snivellus that he can't sit with us!" Allison cried.

Allison Craven. Drama Queen of Hogwarts. If anything slightly dramatic happened, Allison could always find a way to make it worse. Sirius Black had been after her for years. With beautiful blonde hair that went straight down her back and blue eyes that complemented it perfectly, she was sometimes said to be the prettiest girl at Hogwarts. She was from a rich pureblood family who lived in the heart of London, but often stayed in Scotland during the summer. She prized herself with being Natalie McDonald's best friend.

Natalie McDonald. Most popular girl at Hogwarts. She was rumored to have been on a date with over half the male population at school. She had dark brown hair and light brown eyes, giving her a very earthy yet gorgeous natural look. She was half and half. Her father was a wizard, but her mother had no magical talents whatsoever. Since she got her fair share of muggle "studies" at home, she was interested in Transfiguration. She lived in the English countryside, and was not quite as rich as her good friend who lived in the same town as she did, Kayla Ryan.

Kayla Ryan. Quiet and subdued, she was Remus Lupin's girlfriend. Dirty blonde curls hung to her shoulders, and she had dark blue eyes. Living in the English countryside had given her a great respect for hard work and determination. Even though her family was a rich pureblood wizarding family, she still appreciated muggles and she was fascinated with Muggle Studies. Her bosom friend was the well-known Lily Evans.

Lily Evans. There are many who are confused about her personality. The only ones who truly know her are her three best friends Allison, Natalie and Kayla. Some say she is too strict and studies too much. Others say she is simply misunderstood, and is really a fun person to be around, she just takes some getting used too. Of course, the only person who says that is James Potter. Mr. Potter was smitten the moment he saw Lily's vibrant red curls and bright green eyes. Lily was, in fact, a well balanced mix of study and play. She was the top student in her classes, but she was not the study freak most people saw her as. She, as you all know, came a from a muggle family, gaining her the fond nickname 'Mudblood' from the Slytherins. She lived in Little Whinging, and often went into London for a break from Petunia, her muggle sister who hated her because of her magical "abilites", or abnormalities, as Petunia called them.

The aforementioned James Potter was still trying to explain himself in his compartment where he sat with his three best friends, Sirius Black, Remus Lupin and Peter Pettigrew.

"How did you get Head Boy?" Sirius asked again for the 20th time.

"Listen, I didn't ask for it, Ok? Dumbledore must have been drinking or something when he chose me…"

"Think of all the stuff we'll be able to do though. I mean, with James in a position of power and authority, the Slytherins can't do anything!" Sirius exclaimed gleefully.

"I really thought you would get it mate," James told Remus, who just shrugged, looking out the window.

"So who do you think head girl's gonna be?" Peter squeaked, sitting down next to Remus.

"Probably that weird girl from Ravenclaw, what's her name again?" Sirius said, absentmindedly.

"Callie Jones. And no, it's not her. It's Lily. I talked to her before she got on the train." Remus said, and James almost fainted.

"Evans? She's head girl? THIS HAS GOT TO BE THE BEST YEAR EVER!" James shouted, ignoring Remus' attempts to quiet him.

"Potter? Potter!" Came a voice from outside the compartment. The door slid open, and Lily Evans strode in.

"Potter! Come on! We have the Prefects meeting! Sheesh! I better not have to do this every time we have a meeting! I am not babysitting you this year!" She said, then turned and left the compartment. James winked at his fellow Marauders, then got up and followed Lily.
