CHAPTER TWOPreviously:
As James and Sirius talked about what the year could have in store for them Lily was on her bed cursing at the world for letting him know that her mother wasn't there anymore. She was even going to change schools so that she could be closer to home. I hope I never see him again thought Lily. And if I do I won't give him the time of day he deserves. I hope I make lots of friends at my new school, if I don't it's bound to be lonely.

BZZZZZZZZZZ, BZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ, BZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ
'ALRIGHT ALREADY I'M UP!' James quickly scrambled out of bed to see a very pleased Sirius sitting there experimenting with an alarm clock.

'Hey James, I found this thing. It has a clock and when you piss it off it makes a loud buzzing sound.'

'WOW aren't you just spectacular' said a very un-amused James who then rolled over only to be told by his mother to get up.
'C'mon get up, Do you want to miss the train?'At that James scrambled to his feet and quickly started to strip off as he stumbled to the shower. As James was in the shower Sirius started to throw everything into their trunks, and when I say everything I mean everything. This year there would be more pranks, more sex and more spending time with mates. And he didn't want to forget a thing. James got out of the shower to see quite a strange sight, there was Sirius trying to close two bulging trunks and he was using everything in him not to break the zip.

'I took the liberty to pack your trunk for you, now we can go have breakfast.' Said Sirius with the face of a five year old, so pleased with himself it would be hard to argue. James had no problem what so ever with Sirius packing his things, after Sirius ran away from home James had become his brother. James knew that whatever he wanted to take, if not more would be hidden under the coarse fabric of his trunk.James slowly went downstairs pondering Lily, she had this funny purple swirl on the inside of her left wrist, he knew he had seen it before but he just didn't know where. He and Sirius had come to the conclusion that she had just used a quill and drawn on her arm.Mmm the smell of bacon was slowly winning James over so he sped up his pace and went to the table where his mother had packed it with pancakes, bacon, eggs, toast and sausages. Sirius could tell that something was eating up James so slowly he asked what was wrong, and he was quite shocked by the answer. James just sat there and told him about how over the last couple of days he had put everything into contacting Lily again. He had even tried using the Muggle contraption called a felly-tone.'James Potter if you keep eating like that you will give yourself a heart attack, you too Sirius.' Said James' mother with quite an amused look. It was quite interesting watching the boys eat, Sirius wolfed down everything before you could blink and James stuffed his mouth so full you could stick a pin in his cheek and have an explosion. Must get it from his father. Thought Eleanor Potter as she quickly hid the remainder of the raw bacon with a flick of her wand.

-----------------()-----------------
Lily jumped out of bed and ran towards her window. After she had flung it open she stuck her head out and took a deep breath. This was the last time she would see this view for a year. She had already decided that she would spend Christmas at her new school, for two reasons; it was her last year of magical education and it was her new school.

Lily decided to dress quite casually, wearing a green knitted above the knee dress and a pair of black stockings with shiny black shoes. As Lily applied her eyeliner she was glad she didn't have to change into her robes until they were approaching Hogsmeade.Lily was the most excited she had been in years, she was finally venturing somewhere new. She was silently praising the heavens that she knew a girl that already went to Hogwarts. Her name was Bailey. They lived near each other and were the best of friends. Lily had even become close with a girl named Rachael through the process of being with Rachael. Rachael like Lily had waist length hair, but the difference was Baileys was blonde. Not a dirty blonde or a bleach blonde, a natural sun kissed blonde, with the most perfect blue eyes. She was pretty, but in Lily's opinion, Bailey took the cake. She had long brown hair, greeny-blue eyes, and the most beautiful smile.

-----------------()-----------------'HEY LOSER!' Lily quickly spun around to see her mates running over to her.
'OMG I'm so glad to see you, I felt like a twit standing there on my own.'
'Well what are friends for?' jokes Rachael. 'Wow nice dress Lils.'

'This dress was my mothers.' Smiled Lily. 'She made it right before, well
before...you know.' Said Lily with a sad expression.

'Turn your frown up side down pumpkin head, for we are about to go find a compartment.'As the three girls made their way to the train as he last whistle blew James could swear he saw a wave of red hair float onto the train. Could it really be her? Thought James. His suspicions would soon come to rest as he made his way towards the train. 'Psssst Remus I just saw some pretty red head get onto the train with your sister, she looked just like that one that I was telling you about.'

'Hmm well lets go find Rachael, maybe she knows her or something.' As the four boys ran the rest of the way to the train, James witnessed Peter checkout Narcissa Black!'Which way will we go?' Queried Sirius.

'Well if I know my sister she would be on the right side of the train.'

'Well lets get to it!' Shouted a very enthusiastic Sirius.

'Ahhh get out you perv!' Screamed four or five innocent girls.

'Sirius, James what the fuck do you think your doing?' Laughed Peter. Remus looked on with an amused expression.

'Well it seems we were looking for your sister and we accidentally opened a compartment with girls getting changed.' Grinned James.

'Your really sick you know that James.' Said a girl from behind Remus. All four boys turned and saw Rachael standing there.'We were just looking for you Rach.' Said Remus. 'We wanted to know if you knew a girl with red hair and green eyes.'

'Her name is Lily, Lily Evans.' said James.

'Well I might but what's it to you?'

'Well I met this girl.' Started James 'and she was everything I've ever wanted and more, we went out dancing and had a ball. When I took her home I spoke to her dad and he promised to tell Lily that I really wanted to see her again, but I never heard from her. I tried for days to contact her but I had no luck.'

'Ohh that's such a sob story.' Laughed Peter.

'Well you'll find out soon enough, I'm just a tad busy right now so good luck.'

'FUCK.'

'I want to fucking find her!' moaned Sirius.

'We better get changed into out robes, I'd expect we'd be arriving soon.' Stated Remus.Before they could go any further a boy with black greasy hair stepped put of the shadows. 'If it isn't Mr. High n'mighty.' Said Snape with an evil grin.

'You forgot good looking.' Growled Sirius, looking like he was about to pounce. Before anyone could move James reached for his wand and went to fire a hex at Snape, but he wasn't quick enough because at that moment Snape sent a Bat Bogey hex at Sirius.

'YOU PRICK!' Screamed Sirius.

'Break it up, break it up.' Said a haughty looking seventh year Slytherin. James immediately noticed the shiny gold Head Girl badge pinned to her robes. 'Baby I know you want me to put them in detention', said Camille Valance 'but as you know I'm only head girl for a week because my fathers making me move to A.I.M.' Camille Valance said as she stroked the hairs on Snape's head. 'Now go all of you, I don't want to have to waste my time here sorting this out. Just go get changed or something.'-----------------()-----------------

The Marauders as they liked to call themselves quickly went back to the compartment they had decided to occupy and changed into their robes, each preparing for the end of year feast when they would come in front of the school and receive special seventh year badges. James was absolutely dreading getting up and giving a speech about his time at Hogwarts and what he wants to achieve in his final year. The Head Girl was an absolute bitch in James' opinion a horrible stuck up Slytherin by the name of Camille Valance. Thank Merlin she was not in his house, and thank Merlin she would only be here for a week!

'And now I would like to welcome up the seventh years to receive their badges.' 'WOO I LOVE YOU JAMES!' A sudden smirk appeared on his face. 'I LOVE EACH AND EVERY ONE OF YOU UNLESS YOU ARE MALE, IN SLYTHERYN, OR BUTT UGLY! Yelled James. 'I SECOND THAT!' Retorted Sirius. As each Seventh Years came forward a thunder of applause erupted. When Dumbledore came to Lily he announced to the school that she was a wonderfully talented witch who had just transferred from Beauxbatons. James stood there dumbstruck. His eyes followed Lily as she gracefully walked up and flashed a smile at the whole school. 'It has been decided that Lily will be put into Gryffindor.' Announced McGonagall. 'After an interview with Miss Evans it has been decided that she will take over the role as Head Girl seeing as Miss Valance will be leaving us, I am aware this has never been done before but I am sure it will be for the best.'

'Before I forget, could all seventh years stay behind after this magnificent feast.' Stated Dumbledore. With that he clapped his hands together and a wonderful mouthwatering feast appeared.

'This is so cool.' yelled Lily above the tables chatter.

'Yeah, I wonder what Dumbledore wants to talk to us about.' Stated Bailey.

'I said I want to know what Dumbledore's going to tell us!' Roared James.

'You'll know soon enough.' Said Sirius. As James sat watching the people around him chatter he couldn't help but let his heart rip every time he saw Lily smile at Bailey and Rachael. He came close to tears but he didn't have time as at that very moment Dumbledore excused everyone and wished them all a goodnights sleep. Sirius couldn't help but laugh as he watched the nervous first years scramble together in a group trying to keep up with the prefects. It really was a sight to make you laugh.
