Chapter 2
When breakfast had ended the four and Harry went to the common room. Harry felt a bit tired but wanted to hang with his parents, well soon to be ones.
Lily was the only one that stayed with him because apparently all were due to go to the first 4 classes except lily. Lily was supposed to attend to the last 5.
"I wanna do something mummy." complained Harry who rather enjoyed calling Lily that. Lily laughed "He's calling me mummy," she thought giving a sense of pride in herself as well as Joy.
Harry's Pov
I was surely bored being with just my mum. Shortly after mum suggested we play Wizard's chess, so I joined just to kick back time.
An hour or so later Lily fell asleep with her book in her hands. I grinned and snuck up heading for the portrait. I still remember that the Password is Lilacs.
I wondered around for a bit and into an abandoned room which seemed to be like a spare common room only a bit older and spacious. I strolled around and by getting bored I marked this place on my note parchments [to visit this place again and wondered around outside when I was suddenly being caught hold of by mum.
"umm..." I began cowardly feel my heart sink as I could see she was getting a bit furious for this was the second time I ran around today without anyone to go with.
-------- End of Harry's Pov
"What the bloody hell does he think he's doing? Running around a castle he doesn't even know, while classes are about! Someone might come out while Teachers are away and hex or jinx Harry. What do I do to Harry? Surely I need to punishment." thought lily.
Harry began to think of an excuse but before one would come out of his mouth lily gave him a slap on his behind, without meaning for it to be hard, but she didn't realize that until Harry had blurted, "Ouch!" Lily beamed at him and replied, "That's for running off a second time today. Another time and I will spank you again! Now come on, you can see james er- I mean Daddy later..." Lily grabbed his wrist and pulled him up to the common room. She stopped him, sat him down, and made him guzzle down a sleeping potion which Harry didn't realize that, before he was past out cold on the couch.
James and the Marauders shortly arrived in the common room finding a sleeping Harry and a sten Lily not leaving her place. "He fell asleep?" asked the disappointed Sirius as he wanted to play with harry since it was their turn to watch him.
"Well sorta"
"Sorta?" asked a confused James.
"I made him drink a sleeping potion because he ran off for the second time again today." Lily explained.
Remus sighed suddenly noticing Harry waking up who shouted, "I'm not drinking that again!!!" making everyone of the gryffindors laugh.
James looked at Harry's eyes and somehow found himself beginning to talk, "Hey Harry..." He suddenly put a silencing Charm around them and finished his questions, "How come you seem nervous about calling us mum and dad, we did raise you didn't we? Plus why do you have a scar?"
Harry froze when all eyes were on him. Maybe he could tell him that but not his age of him being a wizard yet? "I-ii.." he began. Lily Remus Sirius and James looked at him noticing that he was rather really uncomfortable now.
"I didn't...grow...up...with...you..." he whispered but unfortunately Remus and Lily heard to their shock they explained for him.
"Why not aren't we your parents??" asked the anxious James who was now thinking that Harry wasn't Lily's son. Harry turned his head away. Then continued by whispering it to Sirius. Sirius after his shock told them, "He says that you both had died when he was one so he was sent to live with the Dursleys. You know Lily's sister. he also says that he got that scar from the night you died." Sirius then looked a bit dumbfounded asked, "How?" Harry had a bit of tears in his eyes so James and Lily wrapped their arms around him so they could calm him down to continue, "Well..." Harry said a few minutes later, "Voldemort [everyone flinched tried to kill me with that [sounding a bit childish on purpose "Killing" curse but somehow I ended up with just this scar thingy..." Harry's voice trailed off to let everyone gather their thoughts and blurt out like everyone else always do, "YOU SURVIVED THE KILLING CURSE?" Harry just nodded and without a moment's hesitation he ran up the stairs into his bed crying his hearts out feeling a hole in his heart.
A few minutes or so past and James and Sirius with Remus came in and comforted Harry till he stopped crying. It was a good thing nobody knew he was 16, he was crying like a baby.
Shortly after the drama everyone forgot when Sirius blurted,"LETS SHOW HARRY WHAT US MARAUDERS DO. PRANK STYLE."
Harry who wasn't expecting anyone to yell, fel over off his bed causing everyone to laugh their heads off.
"How about we pull one on the whole school this time. Like at Dinner?" Remus asked excited to show Harry their pride.
James thought and thought then suggested, "We can use Harry's voice as a special treat, afterall everyone thinks Harry's little ittle cutie voice is sweet" he grinned mischievously. Harry looked at them as they all nodded and gave in. He really hated this voice so that's why he wanted to see this one come to use.
"We could..." Sirius began and that's where I'll leave it. So you can't hear.
Lily attended her classes as Harry and James played exploding Traps and Sirius and Lupin raced to finish their homework seeing James had already beat them.
"Mate your just too fast, finishing before even leaving study hall." muttered Sirius.
Harry laughed and felt really happy about being with his father.
Time flew by fast as Dinner occurred. The marauders and Harry anxious of their new prank plans.
When the four went down to dinner they saw lily chatting with her friends when they sat down and went to eat when suddenly everyone screamed as the four laughed.
Everyone in the great hall [with the exception of Harry James Remus and Sirius had their skin, a pale blue, hair a dark red, nose green, lips purple, and no matter what their clothes color were they were all in an embarrasing dark yellow green. Not to mention their voices were small like Harry's child voice.
Lily too but James made her clothes color pink for a more stand out color. All the dye was in the food of course.
When lily spotted the Marauders they stopped laughing but then she noticed Harry. Well he couldn't stop falling off his chair with uncontrollable laughter. Lily lit up in fumes as she marched to her son who noticed her and took off immediatly. He was running hard when he remembered James lent Harry the cloak for today so he slid it on and hid until everyone in the great hall turned normal and after they stopped laughing from that chaos, they went on with their normal lives except Lily was looking for Harry, keeping her eyes on James often to see if he would appear next to him. When Lily gave up and headed for the common room Harry revealed himself to James and the others.
"Bloody hell Harry. I should have told you to stop laughing. Now Lily really is gonna kill him. Or me!" James blurted when they were in the Boys bathroom. Harry blushed and retold them of what Lily did when he snuck off this morning and afternoon. "I'm not gonna get spanked again!" Harry said a bit mad and mostly embarrasing he actually got spanked. Sadly though Remus told him he had to get it over with and with that they dragged him literally to the common room where Lily awaited.
"Hi Lils-" James said but was interupted as Sirius tried to cover for Harry, "Look Evans, it wasn't the kids fault! He was just laughing honest..." but he gave a stop when she held up a certain potion givin to Harry to copy his voice, "nicked it from Harry's bags. I figured you three would leave a mistake for once and heres my proof." Harry blushed on how stupid they made that mistake, so he hid behind James frightened what Lily was going to do to him.
Lily walked over to Harry but James stopped her, "Look don't spank Harry if your gonna. He doesn't diserve it he is a kid for crying out loud!"
Lily looked at James and muttered, "Well I won't spank him again then but I will do something else." She walked up to him knelt down and said,"Your Grounded from seeing to them for the remainder of Today and tomorrow." with this Harry's heart sank. "N-no!" Harry pouted not caring if he sounded Childish again. He got and ran up to the boy dormitory as fast as he could. He laid there quietly until he slowly drifted off into a nice deep sleep.
The next day Harry awoken early. He quietly woke up James and told him he had an idea to avoid lily.
"The Room of Requirements! I'll show you ina sec. What do you say d-daddy?" Harry whispered. He was happier saying Daddy and Mummy more than ever now.
James let out a chuckle and got up to get dressed. He woke up Remus while Harry jumped on top of Sirius to wake him up. Both came up quickly and James told thim Harry's idea of avoiding not only classes but hiding Harry. "Room Of Requirements?" said Remus and Sirius in union.
"I uh-heard two girls talking bout it while exporing and running round yesterday," Harry lied talking hyperly. "You walk by tis door 3 times and you wis for a pace ike wha they said, to pactice potions and you gotsa think reallly hard bouts it. Well tat's what I heard."
James and Sirius laughed hysterically from hearing Harry's words of This to tis and place to pace and such. Remus told Harry not to pay attention to them. Harry blushed but knew it was wise to talk like well a child. as well as his voice didn't help him much either. He sounded like a baby if you asked him yourself.
Slowly James spoke up, "firstly I will go check downstairs for anysign of lily. I'll be back."
Slowly the snuck downstairs and spotted no sign of lily. He sighed of relief but Remus then suggested Sirius and James go under invisibilaty cloak and sirius come back for Remus and Harry. Since Harry could hang on James' back The three went to the place Harry told them about.
"Merlins beard it worked!" blurted Sirius out when all four had arrived at the place and Harry had walked past 3 times thinking, "I need a personal Marauders Hide out, for the Marauders to plan their pranks and a place for me to hide from my mum.
There were 4 beds all Gryfindoor layout and 3 recliners, plus a nice comfy couch along with a common room style only it came with a kitchen to Sirius's liking. As well as Remus' favorite the Library. James liking of a battle floor and Harry's liking, a common room like house to hide in.
They spent the whole day in there, amused they were skipping classes but before all this they told dumbledore they would take charge of Harry all day today and Lily got tomorrow. Harry got nervous at that part though.
James however got Harry out of that thought when whispering something to Sirius and Sirius pounced on Harry in his dog form licking his face.
"Hey... Harry you need a Marauder name now that you've been with us. That Prank yesterday was like a test. How about..." James wondered into thought about a name for his future son.
" How about... Prongsy! For being the son of Prongs." Remus laughed. James and Harry blushed at this but were outnumbered by Sirius.
"So your Prongsy now Harry." James said after everyone finished there laughing. Harry nodded and eventually just laid on the sofa reading a book of quidditch. James and Sirius began pigging out while as Remus began writing a parcel to his mum at the desk.
Suddenly out of nowhere a phoenix popped out and landed on the sofa. Harry who was caught off guard, stared at the phoenix like it was about to attack him.
"Harry, James, Sirius, Remus. Pleasure if I must say." Came a voice once a man came out of nowhere. "Professor Dumbledore!" the four called out in union.
"As you see, Lily has been looking around the castle for young Harry here and I advice that you keep him hidden for now." He chuckled. They knew he was teasing when it came to the Marauders and their fascinating ways of hiding from a Head Girl or Prefect.
"I am surprised you four had found the Room of Requirements though. However I advice for you to return tomorrow for you have told me that Lily will take Harry tomorrow. I just camed here to send you three your dailey homework for today." and he set the papers down and left.
"Wonder how he knew."
"More importantly what's lily gonna do to me?" Harry said uneasy.
"Don't worry your mum is harder on James than on anyone she has ever met. Like when she kicked him in the spot and hexed him into a sloth." Mocked Sirius and everyone except James laughed so hard it took them half an hour to stop.
About 10minutes till dinner the boys left the room leaving a spell that would make sure that the boys could get in easily by themselves. Well the same room I suppose.
and headed off for dinner. Eventually after entering the Great Hall and sitting down trying to hide Harry. It hadn't worked.
"Lily-kins!" James exclaimed. The others around them turned to look at another turn down from lily saddly lily ignored it this time and replied with something else on her mind, she was looking at Harry, "You do know I'm taking care of Harry tomorrow and if you hide him again tomorrow i will make sure you Marauders never see again!"
