CHAPTER 2:
Lily looked at the demolished common toom then turned to the four boys.
"You monkey brains!" Lily shrieked, as anything even closely resembling sleep disappeared into nothingness. The four boys just stared at the parchment.
"Didn't think that'd happen…" James mused. Lily just stared as people rushed down the stairs, staring. Then, McGonagall appeared.
"What the devil is going on here? Explain yourselves!" McGonagall said angrily.
"Uhh… see, the think is… um…"
"What exactly is the thing, Mr. Potter?" McGonagall asked sternly.
"You see, Professor, since I am in sixth year, I forgot that I haven't learned how to… uhh…" James started and Sirius jumped in.
"Divide Fractions!" Sirius said, "We were doing, um, a math problem on our, er, new atuo-check parchment, and it seems we seemed to have missed something up…"
Lily was surprised at how quickly he came up with such a stupid lie, but was even more surprised when she saw McGonagall's reaction.
"Well, next time, remember to switch the second one, then multiply," She said, "Oh, Miss Evans, would you mind cleaning up?"
Lily was dumbstruck. Dividing Fractions… they told McGonagall they couldn't divide fractions… and now she had to clean up their mess, because they 'couldn't divide fractions'.
"Professor, I didn't do anything. Their 'auto-check parchment' blew up," Lily protested once she got her voice back.
"Miss Evans, what were you doing down here in the first place?" Professor McGonagall asked.
"Dividing fractions! She couldn't sleep, so she came down here and tried to help us," Sirius piped up.
"Is that true, Miss Evans?" Professor McGonagall asked. Lily shrugged, better not to say anything. "Well, then the five of you will clean this mess up. Now everyone, back to bed!" and with that, McGonagall left, and the students went upstairs, leaving the four boys and Lily staring at the smoking furniture and ashy floor.
'I'm never going to fall asleep,' Lily thought sadly as she reluctantly started to pick up.
