This story is dedicated to my sister, Nisha who is my favorite person in the whole world.

Chapter One: Beginning of 6th year

It was the first day of the new term and Professor McGonagall was struggling to make the students pay attention, which was no small feat as most of them were in a world of their own, reminiscing about their summer vacation. Everybody except a small group of students who proudly refer to themselves as the "Marauders". They were celebrating being together after a long period by having a minor wizards contest at the back of the classroom –" who can get whose nose to be the longest in the period of a minute?". Quite harmless but very annoying, thought Professor McGonagall.

James Potter, the hazel-eyed ringleader of the Marauders had managed to get his best friend, Sirius Black's nose to a length of a metre and that too in just 10 seconds. James Potter was 6'1; hazel eyed, rugged looking and was Hogwart's star Quidditch player and one of Hogwarts most eligible bachelors. He didn't have what people would call amazingly good looks. But it was not his looks that attracted people to him. It was what his dear friend Sirius would call "warmth and charmth" .He had such mischievous eyes that sparkled whenever he was up to no good, which was quite often in his case. His hair seemed to have its own zip code; it was extremely untidy and unkempt. If there were the perfect specimen for ruggedness, he would be it. He was currently laughing at Sirius's attempts to touch the tip of his nose.

Sirius Black was 6'2; gray eyed and had sleek black hair. He was- in simple words- drop dead gorgeous. The interesting fact was that he was quite aware it. He was a fellow Quidditch player and played the beater on the team alongside James who played chaser. Anyone meeting them for the first time would have thought they were brothers. You could never see one without the other.

Even if anyone tried hard it was extremely difficult to find any dissimilarities between them. Both were kind hearted, incredibly brave, highly unpredictable and fiercely loyal to the other. Furthermore they both also shared the same sense of shrewdness or "Marauderness" as they used to call it.

Their fellow marauders Remus Lupin and Peter Pettigrew were laughing at their antics. Remus Lupin was 6'0; brown- eyed and had sandy brown hair. He was the most studious of the group and would be seen immersed in some book or the other most of the time. He was also the considerate one of the group- not that the others were'nt nice- its just that he was always the one people would go to if they needed a confidante. He was everyone's friend and was adored by all except the Slytherins obviously. He was calm , sweet tempered and nice to everyone. He was not to be mistaken for a coward as he was incredible bold . He was the "You hold your tongue, you're fine. You anger me, you're dead" sort of person.

Peter Pettigrew , the fourth marauder was 5'7, plump, blue eyed and had dirty blonde hair. He was the mysterious one of the group, no one knew much about him. He was nice and good-tempered to everyone however Peter was not in the least bit like Remus. One could talk to Remus with ease however everyone found it awkward to talk to Peter. There was not much, which could be told about Peter because he was a very difficult person to understand. At present he was gaping at James who had managed to make Sirius's nose two metres long.

Professor McGonagall sighed and decided it was time to stop them. She couldn't go on ignoring them for ever. Blacks's nose was threateningly close to a Hufflepuff girl and was in danger of hitting her.

"Potter!" she shouted

The whole class jumped. Some of the students seemed mildly aware that a class was going on.

"Yes Professor?" James asked with an innocent face and in a saintly voice.

"I was under the impression that was conducting a class here. I hope you and Pinnochio have nothing against it" she said sarcastically.

"Pinocchio? "James asked with a confused expression on his face.

"Never mind" sighed Professor McGonagall.

"Oh and Professor, your teaching doesn't bother us one bit. You may go on," he said grinning. His friends nodded fervently beside him, Sirius's head bobbing up and down in the air.

How she like to strangle him, thought Professor McGonagall. She put on a grim expression and said, "If I have to tell you one more time to stop creating a distraction in class, it will be a months worth of detentions and fifty points from Gryffindor.

Seeing that they had exhausted their credit on Professor McGonagall, James removed a spare parchment from his bag and began writing.

J: I'm bored, Remi.

James slid the parchment over Remus's notes. Remus's eyes widened when he saw the parchment and lowered his head to write.

R: Ok

J: I said I'm bored.

R: And I said its Ok. Trouble Sirius if you like.

J: He's asleep. Hmm….. I could trouble him though….but I don't think I like a sleepy Sirius……heck, I don't even like Sirius.

R: Ok then Peter.

J: Can't you see he's staring at Tiara Moonwater.

R: Oh.

J: Remi, do something about it?

R: Call me Remi again and I'll so something about it.

J: Aahh! A bit of entertainment. Whatcha gonna do, Remi?

R: Jump on the desk and scream out loud that you used to wear diapers till the age of nine.

J: Ermm! Point well taken….

R: Thought so.

J: How did you know about that….u know?

R: Sirius told me and shut up.

J: What? He did….did he? Did he also tell you about the time when he had to go to a wedding and since the his cousin who was the flowergirl caught the flu , he had to go instead.

Remus's eyes widened when he saw this. He nearly burst out laughing and only just managed to change his laugh into a cough before it left his mouth.Professor McGonagall looked at him sharply.She had a suspicious look on her face.

A few seconds later when she realized she couldn't dock points off for coughing, she turned around and began to teach although she glanced in their direction every few seconds.

R: Now that's interesting. Go on James.

Sirius suddenly woke up from his sleep and mumbled something. Not wanting to go back to sleep , he glanced around the classroom. He then noticed the parchment on James's desk. He snatched it from James's table and began reading. His eyes first widened in amusement and then narrowed as he reached the last message. He glared at James and then began writing furiously.

S:James, you are so DEAD.

J: Hey ! You told Remus about my diapers.

S: Well…yeah…he wormed it out of me……and besides you have nothing to lose if someone finds out….. I, however have my reputation to protect.

J: And I don't?

S: Precisely.

J: I think you mean me not having the reputation of a "UNIVERSAL JERK"? I quite agree. You however quite suit the requirements.

S: Hey!

J: Hey what?

S: Nothing...I just couldnt think of a smart enough comeback.

J: Why doesnt that surprise me?

S: Shut up!

J: This could go on forever!...Change of topic...Hey Remi, where's Evans?

James slid the parchment over Remus's notes .Remus, who was now looking intently at Professor McGonagall, who was chastising Darrel White for not paying attention, noticed it only when James pinched his elbow. Remus flinched and looked down at the parchment.

R: I have no idea. And honestly James, if you dare call me Remi again , I'll tell the whole class your secret as well as Sirius's.

S: Hey! That's not fair.

R: Who said anything about fair?

J: Hello? I just asked you something…Where's Evans?

S: Don't tell me you're concerned about her, James? looks slyly at James

J: Who invited you in the conversation? I was talking to Remus.

S: I did and don't change the topic.

J: What makes you think I like her?

R: Hmmm….Let me see…. Could it be the stares you give her?

S: The stupid expression on your face then?

R: The stupid blush you get whenever we catch you looking at her?

S: The forty six times you have asked her out?

R: The forty six times she refused?

S: The ahem!….endearing words you use when talking to her?

J: Stop it… glaring fiercely ...I don't like Evans.. That was all in the past.

S: The past as in yesterday?

J: Umm….yeah.

S: Sure Prongs, your wish. If you don't want her anymore , can I have her? Im sure she wouldn't be able to resist my warmth and charmth.

J: If you even touch her padfoot , I'll kill you.Don't even think about it.

S: Touche ,Prongs.

J: Hey where s Moony and Wormy?

S: Moonys wasting his time again. Hes actually listening. Imagine! And Peteys drooling over Tiara Moonwater.

J: Sheesh! Kick Moony 4 me will ya?

S: With pleasure.

J: THAT WAS MY FOOT ,U IDIOT.

S: Oh so sorry Prongs grinning broadly didn't notice your leg.

R: Im back. Did I miss anything interesting?

J: Oh Remus. So pleased to see you in the world of the normal again. You didn't miss anything but dear Sirius here is about to be kicked in the shins by somebody.

S: You harm me, Prongs and I promise ill never tell you about Remus's secret stash of chocolate frogs.

J: What?

R: You know what ? I think ill help you out and do the kicking thing for you , James.

S: gulp

Suddenly the door of the classroom opened and a girl entered. (Sirius let out a huge sigh of relief.) She was tall and slender with dark auburn hair that fell to her shoulders. She had soft , creamy skin and pink cheeks that gave her a permanent blush. Her most classic feature, however was her green eyes which shone like emeralds.

Lily Evans .

She was peering around the classroom looking anxious.

" Miss .Evans. You're late" said Professor McGonagall stating the obvious.

"Umm….Sorry Professor but I had to take Rachel to the hospital wing. She wasn't feeling well today morning" said Lily biting her lip nervously.

"What happened to her?" Professor McGonagall asked sharply.

"I don't think yesterdays feast agreed with her stomach" said Lily, hoping that excuse would satisfy Professor McGonagall.

"Well be seated. Confer with with Ms.Guire and Ms. Summers on what was done earlier"

Lily nodded and looked around the class, her eyes scanning the students for her friends.

"Lily….psst, Lily!…..Over here" Two girls seated in front of the marauders called out.

Lily turned around and on spotting them, smiled and walked towards them.

"Lily, hows Rachel now?" her friend Lydia whispered looking concerned.

"Still puking her lungs out. I had to perform over a hundred vanishing charms already" muttered Lily.

Her friends Eva and Lydia giggled.

"My God , if she ever finds out that it was not the feast that didn't agree with her but the puking pastilles I added to her soup yesterday, shes gonna kill me"moaned Lily.

"Well you shouldn't have" Eva said trying hard to contain her laughter.

"It was an accident. That soup was meant for that troll Sasha Whitney and her sidekick Della Scorsini.It wasn't my fault that Rachel , being the ravenous pig that she is ate it."said Lily glaring at Eva. Sasha was Lilys arch enemy from Ravenclaw. She wasn't the only one. Due to her amazing grades, she had quite a few enemies in Slytherin. No, scratch that- the entire house of Slytherin despised her. But if there was one person she hated more than Sasha Whitney and her friend was Lucius Malfoy. He went out of his way to make trouble to make trouble for the redhead and she retaliated fiercly forcing him to spend many weeks in the hospital wing with various injuries .It was a well known fact in Hogwarts that if Lily and Malfoy were within 10 metres of each other, disaster would be sure to ensue. Theyre rivalry was like that of Severus Snape and the Marauders.

Rachel was the insane one of the group, her crazy ideas always keeping the others entertained. She had a temper almost as bad as Lilys. Eva was the adventurous one of the group, her craze of sports often causing much exasperation to the rest. Lydia was the brain of most of their pranks. Sharp witted and shrewd were some of the qualities reminiscent of Lydia. She didn't look it as she always appeared the picture of innocence. Last of all Lily, she had a temper the size of China. The 3rd years had nicknamed her "The Bull" for ,the year before, she had turned a third year Slytherin boy into a toad for insulting a 1st year girl's heritage ie in other words , for calling her a "mudblood". She was equipped with a brilliant mind ,she could outwit almost anyone. Woe betide anyone who get into her wrong side.

Behind them the marauders were listening carefully to every word they were saying. Sirius grabbed the parchment and began writing furiously.

S: Jamie, can I plz plz have her? Shes my perfect match. Rare combination – beauty with brains.

J: Darling Sirius, the answer is still NO.

S: Its not like she'll ever date you anyway. She hates you dude.

J: glaring at Sirius I was trying to forget that. She'll come around once she sees my irresistible demeanor.

S: Irresistible what? Are you sure you're talking about yourself Prongs.

James kicked Sirius under the table and Sirius let out a cry in pain. The whole class turned around to look at him.

Professor McGonagall peered over her square glasses and asked " Why, is my setting a three feet essay on Animagi too much for you, Mr. Black?"

Sirius recovered from his shock instantaneously. He grinned and said "Yes Professor. Since it's the first day of the term, all the teachers are likely to be setting homework. After nearly two months of holidays when the students( he gestured towards the rest of the Marauders who immediately put on sad puppy faces) are submerged into the stressful nightmare of homework, it could lead to overstrain, mental torture, dementia , insomnia , amnesia and…." Running out of names added " and eventually death".He stood up and said in a pleading tone ". Im sure an intelligent teacher like yourself wouldn't want to lose one of your most valuable students. And what if I do die? You will forever have the guilt in your heart that you let an irresistibly handsome man like myself , nature's gift to women die at the age of sixteen. What about the people? What about the people? There are thousands around the world that have not yet met the wonderful man that is Sirius. Why are you denying them all that, why? Im sure that…"

"Enough is enough ,.Black .How dare you disrupt the class yet again?"she said sharply. The whole class was giggling. She took deep calming breaths and said in a quiet voice "Im hope you enjoy detention tonight as much as you enjoy class,Black."

"Of course I will if you're there with me , Professor" said Sirius grinning, wriggling his eyebrows suggestively.

Professor McGonagall seemed incapable of speaking at that moment.She said in a strained voice " Sit down, Black"

Sirius sat down in his place and smiled broadly at his fellow classmates.

James mumbled " Jerk! You could have just settled for a "no"….but no, you just had to show off."

Sirius grinned at James and said in a pitying tone "Its no use being jealous of me,Prongs. You know you can never match my charm."James snorted. Sirius winked at a Hufflepuff girl who kept glancing at him , thereby causing her to turn to a violent shade of red.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"What I really cant understand is how Professor McGonagall could possibly take a liking to you both. Its not fair, you get away with everything " said Peter who was piling food onto his plate. It was lunch time and the clatter of cutlery and the chatter of students could be heard throughout the Hall.

"As I was telling Sirius just some time back that is because of my irresistible demeanor." Said James, stacking pieces of strawberry pie onto his already full plate.

"Well your Irresistible whatever couldn't get Lily to like you, could it? She still thinks that you are the biggest prat to ever walk on Earth ."said Sirius with a sly look on his face.

"Moony,if you ever want to see your friend alive again, please tell him to run as fast as he can before I beat him to pulp ."said James through clenched teeth.

"Speak of the devil…."said Sirius and pointed to the Entrance door.Lily and her gang minus Rachel were making they're way to the Gryffindor table.They sat at the very end of the table, as far as possible from the Marauders.

Sirius sighed and said "The unattainable beauty of Hogwarts, pity!"

"Hey James ,you better coax her into dating you fast because I heard that Tim Robbins in Ravenclaw is planning on asking her out for the first outing to Hogsmeade ."said Remus with a grim expression on his face which only Remus could pull off.

"What?"asked James looking horrorstruck."You mean Tim Robbins, the Quidditch Captain of Ravenclaw?"

"Yeah! But that should be any problem for you right.Just switch on your irresistible demeanor stuff" said Sirius with an evil expression on his face. But he was immensely surprised that James didn't reply with a swift blow to the head or to any other part for that matter.

In fact, James wasn't listening to him at all.He was busy staring at a certain fiery haired person sitting at the opposite end of the table.

"Lily,hes staring at you again."whispered Eva.They had gone to see Rachel in the hospital wing before coming to have lunch. She was much better now but still looked quite pale. Atleast she wasn't puking her lungs out anymore!

"Ignore him,ignore him" said Lily throwing her red locks behind.They were sitting at the end of the Gryffindor table as far as possible from the Marauders."I thought he would have grown a bit over the summer but apparently not."

"But hes so amazingly cute,Lily though I must say hes not my type. I don't know why you keep refusing to date him. He obviously like you very much ." said Lydia piling sauce on her puff.

"Hes the biggest jerk I ever had the misfortune of meeting. The way he keeps messing up his her, his stupid superiority complex , the way he walks , talks………everything annoys me like hell. If he ever asks me out again Im gonna puke.And its not like his cronies are any better though I feel Remus is kinda nice. Nice or not, atleast he, being the only reasonable one of the lot ought to try and keep the others in order .You saw the way Sirius Black was showing off in class today. He makes me so mad I could……I could……. Do something drastic. "finished Lily.

Eva glanced over her shoulder at the Marauders and to her horror saw that they were coming over.

"Don't look now but theyre coming over.Oh crap!"muttered Eva trying to appear as though she was interested in her food.

"What?"said Lily angrily."If he hits on me again……Ill"

"Chill Lily"whispered Lydia."Don't do anything rash."

"Lets talk something else……how about Quidditch?" asked Eva, the sport freak that she was.

"Oh please, they'll just join in the conversation. You know how nuts they are about Quidditch." Said Lily, talking amiably to her friends, trying to appear that they were having a normal conversation.

They pretended to be unware that they were coming over.But when she heard the only too recognizable voice of James Potter, she had to turn around.

"Hey girls.Long time no see. May we have the pleasure of joining you ladies for lunch?"drawled Potter.

"Sure.Go ahead."Lily replied curtly, determined not to lose her cool.

James and Sirius sat opposite the girls while Remus sat next to Lydia and Peter, next to Eva.Lily was shifting uncomfortably in her seat sandwiched between Lydia and Eva.

"So how was your vacation ?" asked James.

"Dull"said Eva.

"Boring"said Lydia.

"Catastrophe " said Lily.

"Catastrophe, how come?"asking Remus, a grin on his face.

"Oh nothing bad happened except my sister Petunia tried to open my trunk without a key which just happened to have an anti-theft device attached to it."

The Marauders sniggered.

"So what happened?"asked Sirius, grinning.

"Oh well,her whole body was covered with dozens of these greenish purple blob things and her hair got all scaly like.A few wizards from the Ministry came and tried to set things right but they couldn't do anything about the scars on her face as she has scratched some of them.She was screaming awful stuff like "Im scarred because of you wretch." And " I had a date tonight". In my opinion,serves her right , the sly old pig."

They all laughed.

"Well, we have to go now. Got to visit Rachel."That was a lie. Lily just wanted to get away as soon as possible from the Marauders.They rose and walked out of the Great Hall.

James slapped his hand against his head and let out a huge moan.

"Whats wrong now? Didn't you atleast carry out a decent conversation with her for a change?" asked Remus.

"Come on…..She was so obviously lying when she said she had to meet Rachel."mumbled James.

Sirius had a worried look on his face which was odd because few people had ever seen Sirius worried. Though he used to tease James endlessly over Lily , he never meant for him to get hurt. He told him in a consoling voice "She'll come around, one day she will."

"Yeah right, like in a hundred years. Padfoot, that girl is even more stubborn than I am"

"I know Lily , atleast I think I do. I don't think shes one to fall headstrong into relationships. She'll realize your feelings towards her are true one day. "

"When did you get that smart ?" asked James, grinning.

"Practice, my dear boy. Had to use all that crap with all the girls Ive gone out with. Man, theyre weird."

The next day was not a good one for Lily. She woke up late and had to shower in record time but she lost 5 points for Gryffindor anway for arriving late in Potions. She practically screamed at Eva and Lydia for not waking her up. (We did try Lily! Honest! You just rolled over.) Her potion which was supposed to be violet in colour turned out a bright atrocious pink, Professor Frost was not pleased. And to make matters worse, she got set extra homework. Nope, this was definitely not Lilys day.

Another thing she couldn't understand was that she kept tripping every five minutes. Luckily she overheard Black talking about a prank on Evans to Remus. She cornered him after Potions and told him that if he didn't take the spell off her shoes, she'll curse his hair off. Lily had come to know through reliable sources mainly Sirius's vengeful ex-girlfriends that Sirius loved his hair and used to discreetly visit a beauty parlor once a month to have his hair shampooed and gelled. Sirius's face turned white and he quickly took off the spell and mumbled something that sounded like "Umm……hope……..wont….tell…..anyone.."

At lunch , Lily sighed in relief. She had survived the morning.

"Hey Lils, whats a dell vijon" asked Lydia looking puzzled. She was doing a Muggle Studies essay.

"Dell vijon? No idea. Is it written in that book" asked Lily pointing at Lydia's muggle studies text.

"No.Professor Nixon said something about moving pictures on a screen."

"Oh you mean television?"

"Ohh! That's the word."said Lydia, beaming.

Lily rolled her eyes while Eva grinned.

"Hey, hurry up with your lunch, we've got to see Rachel. She'll be complaining about how we left her to die in the hospital wing.

Finishing lunch quicky, they gathered their stuff and went to the Hospital wing. Lily saw Madam Pomfrey, the nurse standing out the hospital wing talking to Professor McGonagall. Eva went up to her and asked her if they could see Rachel. Its not like theyre approval mattered any way, they were going to see Rachel no matter what. Madam Pomfrey nodded irritated, obviously in the middle of a serious conversation.

Lily was curious as to what they were talking about. She whispered to Lydia and Eva that she wanted to overhear the conversation.She walked to the entrance of the hospital wing and bent down, pretending that she wanted to tie her shoe laces. She was covered by a thick curtain that ran along the length of the hospital wing. Eva and Lydia stood above her, appearing to be waiting for her to finish tying the shoe laces.

She could hear them clearly but she could make out snatches of their conversation.

"But how does the League propose to deal with such uprisings."That was the hushed voice of Madam Pomfrey,

"The Headmaster thought it would be useful to have spies in the Ministry and among them"

" But why in the Ministry?"

"That man is no fool, Pomfrey. He must have suitably placed many men among the Ministry. You saw what he is capable of? The people have still yet to understand the seriousness of the situation. Albus suspects it will only be a matter of time before he launches a full fledged attack on the wizarding community. It could be war for all we know."

"But surely, he is overreacting."

"Albus does not tend to overreact, Poppy. Anway lets leave the conversation at that. I have a class within a short while."

Lily straightened up and signaled the end of the conversation to Lydia and Eva. She was puzzled. Who was Professor McGonagall talking about? And what League? And war on the wizarding community. Lydia and Eva seemed to be pondering over the same conversation.

They got into Rachel's separate compartment.

"Hey Rachel! Having fun?" asked Lily smiling.

They walked upto the bed and saw a girl in a pale blue nightgown sitting at the corner of her bed. Her gleaming brown hair which was straight was let loose and her grey eyes shone with joy at seeing her friends again. Rachel hugged them and said "No one to talk to but Madam Pomfrey was beginning to get to me."

"So how are you?" asked Lily feeling happier than she had all day. Things were certainly not the same without Rachel.

"Much better. Poppy tells me I could get out today. Thank God for that. If I had to drink one more pepper-up potion, I think ill go insane"

"Which you surely aren't already."teased Eva.

Rachel just glared.

"So tell me. Anything interesting happen recently."asked Rachel.

"Oh nothing much. We had a talk with the yesterday. A brief one I might add. James was on the verge of asking Lily out again."said Lydia

"Oh, already? Poor guy. Hes fighting a lost cause. Lilys too stubborn to accept, more stubborn than my Mom, if that's believable." Rachel's mother Mrs. Kingsley had been married three times after the death of Rachel's father and her first husband, Peter Kingsley. She kept her first husband's name even after her marriages ,all not exceeding more than 2 years. She was only 22 when she gave birth to Rachel and was 25, when Mr. Peter Kingsley met with fatal accident. She was 38 now.

Lily just glared at Rachel.

"Hey, don't look at me like that. I mean it. I mean whats so wrong with James. There are girls who are dying to date him and you've just refused him 46 times."said Rachel frowning at Lily. Rachel and Eva had starting counting the number of times James asked out Lily since 3rd year.

"That's exactly what I mean. Women are like a play thing for him. Something to be thrown away when you get bored with them. Do you know the number of ex- girlfriends each and every stupid member of their gang have.? I certainly don't want to be one of his toys" replied Lily apprehensively.

"But Lily, hes asked you out 46 times, for crying out loud." Rachel practically screamed.

"You know, the reason hes still pursuing me is because I'm not like other girls who fall at his feet.. I'm one of the only girls at school who sees him for what he is – a jerk. And I am the only girl in school whos refused a date with the infamous Potter. He sees me as only a challenge, someone who is not intimidated by him. And frankly I'm quite proud of that."

"Oh , Well. It was worth a try. Asking you to change your mind on anything is sort of like expecting a miracle."Rachel sighed. "Forget I said anything. Well……what else is new?"

"Nothing much. Oh yeah, Sirius asks about you around 10 times a day" said Lydia, slyly.

"Misses me, does he" asked Rachel, jokingly.

"Oh no, he thinks its truly hilarious that you began puking non- stop after the Feast. I also heard him talking about you getting out of going to class. He thinks you did it on purpose." Said Lydia.

"You know, I never really found out what upset my stomach at the feast. I should avoid eating that stud from now on." Said Rachel, suddenly remembering.

Lily suddenly had a coughing fit. She was practically rolling on the bed trying to control it and stopped only when Rachel administered two hard slaps on her back.

"Sorry" said Lily, panting, trying to regain her breath.

"As I was saying. I should probably find out what caused the stomach upset." Said Rachel.

Lydia and Eva grinned at each other.

"Oh I don't think youll ever come across that problem anymore." Said Eva trying to control her laughter.

"Why not?"

"Because…."started Eva.

"Because they're not likely to serve the same stuff again. You know the house elves, always wanting change. Perhaps it was the way it was cooked that caused you the stomach upset" said Lily, casting a warning look at Eva.

"Perhaps" said Rachel, not looking satisfied.

"Anyway , when are you getting out?"asked Lily trying to change the topic. Eva is going to get strangled soon. Or maybe pushed off the astronomy tower- thought Lily.

"Hey, why not now? Madam Pomfrey said I could get out today. Ill ask her now." Said Rachel and she left the room.

Lily then turned around and glared at Eva and Lydia."Look here, one word about the feast thingee and I promise I wont rest till I put the Cruciatus on you."

"Relax Lily.We wont tell." Replied Lydia.

They both put on their puppy faces and looked at Lily with innocent eyes.

"Do you think we'll do that?

Little Satens - thought Lily. God help me.

That's it for chapter one. Love those who review.
