I really liked writing this fanfic, with exception of one thing. IT'S SUPPOSED TO BE IN THE SEVENTIES! The Marauders don't belong in the seventies. If I could, I'd make a wormhole that would connect me to them in their teen years, and I'd bring them back with me. I'm sorry if you get offended if they seem to modern to you, but I can't help it, I tried to make it not so modern, I even had to cut some big things that happens to the characters because it was too modern. It has been hard to rewrite the main story, but I'll suvive.

Semi-Precious Eyes:

Chapter 1

Time for another year of school, Remus Lupin thought as his warm feet touched his icy bedroom floor. The last year of school. The seventeen year-old lycan streched his arms above his head and let out a huge yawn. The worn blanket that was covering his chest slipped off to reveal a a nicely sculpted, yet scarred, torso. He brushed some of his light mahogony brown hair out of his bright green, amber-flecked eyes got dressed, and went down stairs for breakfast. "Remus," his mother said irritatedly from the table, "you know I don't like those clothes, go put something nicer on." Remus looked down at his clothes and ignored his mothers comments. He had on a wrinkled white button-down shirt, only half tucked in to his pants, pants which just so happened to be for a girl. He didn't mind the pants, they fit comfortably, and, anyway, they made his butt look good, according to Sirius. He smiled mildly at the thought of seeing his friends soon. His striped arm-warmers kept falling down and he had a sadistic idea of stapling them to his arm. He excused the idea. I should get the fake bullet belt that the old guy next door gave to me. Apparently he used to keep actual bullets in it when he was in some Muggle war. "You're right mom, I'll go and change" Sort of. He ran back up the stairs two at a time. He grabbed his belt, put it on and looked in the mirror. A sly smile crossed his face as he reached for the black eyeliner on the table. The thought of his mom's expression made him remember that Lily had made him some fast drying black nail polish. Biting his lip to stifle his laugh, he painted his nails and went downstairs.Walking out the door, his mom gave him a look that could only be of regret. A twisted smile crossed his face as he stepped out into the harsh sunlight.

God dammit, where is Sirius?, he thought impatiently. His friend was supossed to arrange for a car from the Ministry pick them up. Distractedly, he looked at the ground and saw a piece of muggle newspaper covering a small flower. He picked up the paper and shoved it in his pocket. "Now you can see the light little flower," he mumbled. The words barely passed his lips when a red sports car came to a screaching halt in front of him. "Hey, Moony, get in!" Moony gave his friend Sirius a confused smile as he stared at the car. "I thought the Ministry was 'sposed to drive us?" Sirius gave him the devilish grin that he was famous for, "Yeah, but I have never driven one of these things before, I thought it would be fun." Remus gave him an uneasy look and climbed into the backseat.

Sitting next to him in the back was his short friend Peter Pettigrew. Peter had blond hair that hung to his eyebrows. The short boy was mildly chubby and had light blue eyes that contrasted with his red cheeks. In front of him was James Potter. The Grfffindor star Quidditch player was sitting in the seat, playing his guitar. His messy brown-black hair was was covering his glasses when he looked back to say hi to Remus. Excited hazel eyes looked at him and then he gave a gleaming smile and turned back around. Sirius Black was driving, one arm hanging out the window. His skin was tanned from being outside all summer. Bright blue eyes were suprisingly fixed on the road and and white teeth were peaking out from in between his lips. His blue-black hair was long and shaggy, but pushed back from his angelic face.

Remus looked out the window and sighed. I can't believe that this is our final year..."Hey Moony," James shouted, "are you still going out with Evelyn?" Remus paused for a second then sighed, "Yeah, I guess." A look of worry crossed James face, but it was quickly gone. "So...," Sirius said with a hint of intrest in his voice, "did you guys do anything over break?" Remus got a small smile, "no, we didn't even talk." "Didn't you call her?" Peter asked. "Of course, but she never answered," Remus looked down at his ratty converse. "Some one answered once, but it wasn't her" Sirius took his attention off the road and looked back at Remus, his deep blue eyes filled with worry. "Who answered, Remy?" Remus took a deep breath, "some guy." An awkward silence filled the car, and no one talked until they got to the train station.

Remus was the last one of them to climb aboard the bright red train that he had rode for so many years. Up ahead, he could here James and Sirius' hushed whispers as they searched for a cabin to sit in. They're probably talking about me, Remus thought. They worry to much about me, I'll be fine, I can take care of myself..."God DAMMIT!" Sirius' yell tore Remus' attention away from his thoughts. "What's wrong?" Wormtail asked looking confused. "There's no where to sit," James replied. Remus looked up at his friends, "there was a cabin back there with just one person sitting in it. I don't think she'll mind if we sit with her because she's listening to her headphones." Sirius got a look on his face, "Her, you say, who was she?" "I don't know," Remus answered truthfully, " I don't remember seeing her before." "Oh, what house robes did she have on?" he asked. ''She didn't have them on yet'' "Let's just go ask if we can sit with her," James interrupted. They agreed and followed Moony to the mystery girl's cabin.

I stared out the window and watched the scenery go by. This school isn't going to be any different than the others and this year isn't going to be any different either. I wiped my night black hair out of my amythest eyes. I hope I can at least get through the year without having to make friends. It's not that I don't want friends, I just don't want to lose them. Seven schools in seven years is not an easy way to live. At least this another academy, now I don't have to be with my parents. I sighed and leaned my head against the window. I was just about to close her eyes when the door opened and a young man with messy hair and glasses peered inside. "Um, I was just wondering if my friends and I could sit in here?" James Potter asked with a hopeful look. I looked down and muttered something unintelligable. "What was that?" asked a boy with shaggy black hair and blue eyes. "oh, sorry, yeah, you can sit here," I replied quickly. Two more boys filed in behind the first two. One was a short chubby boy with light blue eyes, the other was tall with light mahogony brown hair and green eyes.

Remus followed Peter into the compartment and he locked eyes with the girl sitting by the window. Her sparkling amythest eyes gazed deeply into his somber green ones. A chill ran down his spine and his gut started to tingle. Unable to keep contact with her chilling eyes, he turned his gaze to the floor. What was that all about? Who is she? Lost in his thought, Remus didn't realize that his "girlfriend" had just waltzed into their cabin. "Hey, Remus,baby," Evelyn's high-pitched voice chided, "Watcha been doing all summer?" Remus looked up at her and she started to pull on the gum in her mouth. He looked back down at his shoes, "hey, Evy." His eyes shone with hurt, "why didn't you call me this summer?" Evy looked a little suprised at the question, "Oh, Remus, I did call you, but you were never home." Remus was stung by the words. She was lying, he knew it, he never left his house all summer. As the hours rolled by Remus listened to his Evelyn flirt with his friends, and the pain built up in his chest. As the sky grew dark, out of the corner of his eye, he could see the mystery girl get up and walk to the door. She paused and looked back at them. "My name is Adrianna Arianrhod, by the way. I just thought you should know that" Then she left.

I walked the length of the train to a cabin at the front. They said they wanted to "sort" me. I wonder what that means. I found the cabin I was looking for and opened the door. There was six people standing inside. The oldest looking was a man with half-moon glasses and a long silver beard with hair to match. He seemed to give off an air of reason. That's a first. My gaze moved to an older woman holding a shabby old hat. She also had glasses and had an appearence of being too streched out, but wisdom filled her somber eyes and I knew that she was an important person at the school. There were three other adults standing in the room, but the last person who really caught my atention was a young lady with fire red hair. On her robes was a badge that contained the words "Head Girl." Her shockingly green eyes came into contact with mine, and the girl looked away quickly. "Miss Arianrhod," spoke the man with the silver beard. "We will now sort you into a house to save you the trouble of having to do it at the school." "If you would be so kind as to sit on this stool, my dear," chided the woman holding the hat. Apprehensivly, I sat on the stool, and just as the hat was coming down on my head, a young man with glasses, messy black hair, and hazel eyes, burst through the door. "Sorry I'm late," breathed James Potter. "I forgot about it. Hey, Evans." "James Potter, you little git," yelled the head girl, who could only be Evans, "where have you been?" "I was changing, god Lily, relax," James said straitening out his badge, which just so happened to contain the words "Head Boy." Wow, he's head boy? I think the boy with the jade green eyes would have been a better choice. "Hey, Dumbledore, who's the new student anyway?" James asked. The man with the silvery beard nodded in my direction. James looked at with a look of suprise, "hey, you're the girl who was sitting in our cabin." I met his eyes and gave a sall smile, then looked back down at my feet. "You know, Remus thinks you have beautiful eyes." I looked back up at him,"Who's Remus?" "The tall guy with brown hair and green eyes," James said. "And he has a girlfriend," interrupted Lily. "I noticed," was all I said.

"Alright, Miss Arianrhod, let's sort you now." I looked at the older woman. "by the way, you may refer to me as Proffessor McGonnagal." "Yes ma'am." She placed the old hat on my silky black hair, and I could feel the brim rip open. "Hmmm, you're older than most people I sort, but that can be excused considering the fact that you're an exchange student. Now, let's get to the sorting. Hmmmm, smart girl, brave girl...I have come to a decision, would you liked to hear it?" I was a little confused, I didn't know what they meant by sorting and houses or anything. "Um, I was wondering if you would tell me about these houses you were talking about?" "Why not, it's what I do," the wierd hat replied. "Well, there's Hufflepuff, the house that has no special classification. People who arn't exceptionaly talented, brave, smart, or caniving can find friends there. Ravenclaw, the house for the people with the mental advantage. Smart and capable, most can achieve great things. Slytherin are for those who walk in the darkness. Hmm sounds familiar. Only those with cunning, drive, and prefferably a pure bloodline will make it. And finally, Gryffindor, the house for those brave at heart. A person can find a true friend here. That might not see very discriptive, but you'll see what the houses are relly like for yourself. Now, as I was about to say, I think you would do excellently in Ravenclaw. Gryffindor would have been a good choice too, but you don't seem to wanna connect to people that much, and Ravenclaw will let you be alone."

That was really wierd, I wonder why they divide the school like that. It will only lead to their demise. People shouldn't be divided like that. Something big is going to be happening the near future, and they can't afford this division. Good thing I don't get wrapped up in public matters. I walked back to the cabin to get my stuff, my new Ravenclaw robes swishing around my ankles. When I walked in the first thing I heard was "Awww, you're in Ravenclaw," which came from the guy with saphire eyes. Isn't he the one named Sirius? He looked at me, "Oh, my name's Sirius Orion Black." Yep. He continued talking, "You've already met James and Lily, so I'll introduce you to everyone else. This is Peter." I looked at the short blond boy with the crystal blue eyes. He smiled at me and said hi. Sirius turned to the young man with the jade eyes. "This is Remus," Sirius looked at me,"He's a little shy." Remus looked up and held my gaze. He was so beautiful. After what seemed like an eternity, we broke eye contact, he looked away first, they always do. I sat there in chilled silence, just watching him, for the rest of the way to the school.
