Many thanks to all who reviewed, followed or favorited this story. Sorry about the wait and the short chapter.
Lily sat in a short chair in the dark, gloomy room that was Professor McGonagall's office, dreading the moment the stern teacher would walk back into the room to affirm Lily's impending demise. Lily, so engrossed in her own misery, was startled when Professor McGonagall did actually enter the room, after what had seemed like an eternity. She was not surprised, however, when, following in her suit, was the headmaster himself, Professor Dumbledore.
News of Lily's assault on Professor Trelawney quickly circulated Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Though many were shocked, even horrified, the Marauders—one in particular— could only see this as a chance to gain another partner-in-crime.
"What are you going on about? Lily? Lily Evans?"
"Yes! Lily has joined the dark side! Maybe we can recruit her to the Marauders!"
"Naw, we can't let a girl in."
"But—"
"She'll, only distract you James. We need to focus on terrorizing the teachers instead!"
James, however, wasn't listening. He was too overjoyed that his only love, his beautiful Lily-flower, had finally taken in interest in the art of crossing teachers. Someday soon, they would marry and wreak havoc on the word together.
"James! Are you listening?"
"Hmm? Yeah, definitely."
Sirius started again. "Okay, this is our last year at Hogwarts, so we need to be a irksome as possible this year. We need to be..."
James, once again, drifted off. He wanted to go and find Lily, but he figured she was probably still in trouble with McGonagall. Well, he could certainly fix that.
"Sorry, men!" James told them, interrupting Sirius's long passionate speech, "But I am needed elsewhere." Grinning ear-to-ear, James strode away from them, their looks of outrage and astonishment still plastered across their faces.
Again, no flames or rude comments, as I am somewhat sensitive and do not appreciate derogation of my work. Constructive criticism is appreciated.
