"Oh god it's weird here without Hermione!" said Ron as they walked into the common room.
"Oh Shit!" Harry whispered in panic.
"What's up?" Ron asked thoughtfully.
"Oh nothing except for the fact that they have the marauders map!" He whispered with his voice getting louder with panic as a look of shock came over Ron's face.
"Oh no. But hang on we have one too." Ron said quietly thinking as he pulled it out of his pocket with the invisibility cloak.
"So that's where it went!" Harry said as he went to put them up in his trunk.
"We better tell Sims and Proney," He added when he came back down the stairs.
"Yeah come on let's go now" Ron replied as he opened the door letting 3 screaming large things fall in on top of him.
"What the. ." Harry mumbled as jumped back.
~
"Why hello." Ron said as made out someone's hand on his left eye "Care to get off me."
" Ouch " said James as he pushed himself of the pile of bodies.
"You think you got hurt James what about me?" Remus yelled, "I was at the bottom under you and Sirius!"
"Excuse me but I was underneath all of you!" Ron shouted angrily as he dusted himself off and turned around to see to bodies on the floor rolling around in laughter at the scene.
"Shut Up!" Ron, Remus and James chorused causing the two to laugh even more.
"Okay." Harry choked out trying to stifle his laughter, as Ron had daggers in his eyes it seemed.
"Thank you." Ron replied "Now are you ready to go?" He asked forgetting about the 3 boys that had knocked him over.
"Yeah alright." He said also forgetting the 3boys.
"Hold on " He Ron heard Remus say as they walked back to the portrait door "We want to talk to you"
"Huh" They both said in reply as they remembered the 3 boys.
"Um who are you?" Harry asked, as he didn't really recognise the boy with light brown hair.
" I'm Remus Lupin and this is Sirius Black." He said importantly " Sirius is the goofy looking one and the other messy one is James Potter!"
"Oh" Harry managed to say before fainting again on Ron.
"Shit not again" Ron yelped as he lifted Harry on to the couch.
" Uh is he okay?" James asked nervously as he looked at the scar on Harry's forehead.
"Yeah he'll live." Ron sighed
"What's with the scar?" James asked looking at it.
"Oh he was hit with a curse that went wrong you could say." Ron smirked.
"Hey you don't sound very Scottish you know." Sirius stated,
"Well we were British students first then had to move to Scotland." Ron replied. While he and the guys took Harry up to the boys dorm.
"Really which school did you go to?" Remus asked as they lifted Harry on to his bed.
" Hogwarts for a days then had to move to Scotland." Ron panted, as Harry even though thin was awfully heavy.
"Did you learn where everything was back there in that first day?" Sirius asked.
"Well you could say that we did." Ron replied with a twinkle in his eye.
"Name a secret room or tunnel then." Sirius challenged
"How many do you want." Ron asked smugly.
"3."
"Okay,
1 there is one behind a with a hump and you say a password and that tunnel leads to the storage room of honeydukes
If you touch a knob on the whomping willow there is a tunnel in it that leads to the Shrieking shack.
There is a secret prefect bathroom behind the statue of Boris the bewildered.
And if it counts the kitchens are behind a bowl of fruit.
We both missed out on being sorted because we went exploring. Happy" Ron rattled of quietly while counting them off on his fingers. The others looked in horror though as Ron spoke about Whomping Willow.
"How did you find out about the Whomping willow?" Remus asked sternly.
' Oh shit' Ron thought to himself as he realised what he had just said.
"How did you find out about the Whomping willow?" Remus repeated getting worried.
"Uh I can't tell you that." Ron mumbled uneasily.
"Why not?" James asked, getting annoyed.
"Because its not my business to tell." Ron replied quietly sneaking a look at Remus.
"Guys come on I reckon we check the Honeydukes one." Sirius asked loudly as he noticed the tension in the air.
"Yeah sure." Remus replied shortly as he understood what Sirius meant.
"But" James said reluctantly to the idea of leaving.
"Come on James." Sirius demanded while dragging his friend out the door.
Thank god they're gone Ron thought gleefully as he watched them go out.
I'm in so much shit now! They know we know about the Whomping Willow. He screamed in his head. Better wake Harry up.
"Harry, Harry!" said Ron to the almost motionless body.
"Mmm" Harry mumbled as he came back to reality.
"Oh thank god Harry you won't believe what just happened." Ron said sadly.
~
Mean while over in the common room Remus, Sirius and James were discussing what had just happened.
"How could he know?" James asked filled with curiosity and anger.
"I don't know you haven't told anyone Remus?" Sirius said thoughtfully as he scratched his head, deep in thought.
"Oh come of it like I'm going to tell anyone about it!" replied Remus sarcastically throwing a pillow at him.
"Hey!" Sirius yelled as it hit him in the face.
"Hey back to reality, the new kids know about the W.W!" James hissed.
"Yeah okay but hey what can we do?" Sirius asked
"I don't know but we'll think of something though" James replied.
"I'm going to bed." Remus yawned while heading off to the boys' dorms.
"Goodnight then." They chorused in reply as they started to play a game of exploding snap.
"Hi guys." Lily said as she sat down next to them, "What you doing? Find anything out about the Scottish students?"
"Well yes. We found out they were Hogwarts students then Scottish and now Hogwarts, they know a lot of the secret rooms of Hogwarts and tunnels." Sirius said nonchalantly as the stack of cards exploded in his face.
"Really that all?" Lily said while checking her homework.
"Yep"
"Hey I'm going to bed. Goodnight." James said standing.
"Goodnight." Lily and Sirius said together.
~
"Oh Shit. Sirius." Remus yelled as he and Sirius left the Great Hall.
"What?" asked Sirius bewildered by the fact that Remus had swore.
"The marauders map!" He hissed.
"Oh crap!" Sirius replied as he thought of the consequences of what would happen if their younger selves saw their names on the paper.
"What about Harry!" Remus hissed while thoughts rushed in his head.
"What do we do?" asked Sirius sarcastically, making Remus frown" Sorry. I keep on remembering that muggle movie Harry told us about."
"Yeah I remember that one to." Remus said thoughtfully" We better go see Harry though."
"Okay!" And with that they both hurried off to Gryffindor common room.
~
"Ron that was stupid but it could be worst." Harry said trying to cheer Ron up" Think what could happen if they figured out about us two, or the fact that we know about Lupin, or the snake thing or about what happens in the future." Harry whispered.
"You know your making me feel a bit better. Just think if we got caught on the map." Said Ron groggily" I think I'll go to sleep now."
"Same. Goodnight." Yawned Harry in reply.
Just then 2 figures rushed in the room quickly waking Ron and Harry.
"Harry, Ron!" they said while looking for the two.
"Yeah what, who is it?" asked Ron trying to stifle a yawn.
"Its Sims and Proney." Sirius said in a hushed voice.
"What are you doing?" Harry asked blinking his new blue eyes.
Remus gave a small smile" Well you see we forgot about the marauders map. And you can guess what might happen if anyone looked at it with our names on it."
"Yeah we were going to see you first thing in the morning about it. Plus we have the invisibility cloak and map from our time too." Harry remembered.
"Ah right. Well we better get the other one then."
"Check where we are first though." Sirius said thoughtfully.
Harry looked
Down at the map to see 3 dots moving towards the boys dorms." Oh no quick hide!" Harry hissed as he threw the cloak over the top of them, while the door slowly creaked open.
"Ah your awake!" the younger Sirius said cheerfully as the 3 walked in spotting the other 2 boys up and talking.
"Yeah we were just about to go to bed." Ron said quickly looking nervously at the spot where the older Sirius and Remus had been standing and Harry.
"Oh well goodnight." Remus said breaking the silence.
"Nice to see you awake Harry Cerin." He added politely.
"Yeah you to. Goodnight." Harry replied almost fainting again.
"Night." They replied while climbing in to bed.
~
"Sirius quick, get the map!" Remus hissed, after they had all gone to sleep.
"Okay" Sirius whispered creeping over to James's trunk.
"Hurry Sirius. You're starting to wake up." Remus said starting to panic.
"Okay" Sirius replied while getting the cloak over himself.
"What. . ." The younger Sirius yawned while looking around before falling back to sleep.
"Okay lets go!" the older Sirius hissed as they placed the cloak into Harry's hands ran out the door.
"Gosh that was lucky! Hey I had orange hair in there" Sirius said as they got outside the common room with no one seeing them.
"Yeah I know. We're so curious back there, can you imagine what we're going to ask them," Remus said in a matter-of-fact tone.
"Yeah probably right, but what have you got for tomorrows lesson?"
"Hmm the Boggarts. We didn't do anything on them at all when we were here."
"Oh yeah but what about Harry?" Asked Sirius worriedly.
" Oh I'll just do what I done last time." Remus replied calmly.
"Oh okay see ya later." Sirius waved as they reached their rooms.
"Yeah goodnight, see you tomorrow."
~
The next morning Harry and Ron were dreading the thought of what would happen when they had to talk to the 3 marauders and when they would attend were running as well as the other classes. Especially the class, that Sirius and Remus were running. As they woke up to an empty Dorm.
"Mornin Harry" Ron said glumly as they got changed into their robes.
"Mornin"
"Ready for breakfast?" Ron said, as his stomach wouldn't wait much longer.
"Yeah sure, let's go." Harry replied sadly as he thought about what might happen.
"Hey we never thought about Quidditch when we came here!" Ron said trying to change the mood.
"Yeah I wonder what positions they have?" said Harry cheering up a bit.
" Yeah wanna check it out after?" Ron asked happily. I might get in! He gleefully thought to himself.
"Yeah sure." Harry said before looking melancholy at the doors to the Great Hall.
"Here goes nothing" He mumbled as he and Ron walked in.
~
"Hey here they come!" Lily hissed to Sirius, Remus and James as Harry and Ron came slowly over to the Gryffindor table.
"Hey forget about what happened last night." Remus said as the 2 boys looked gloomily up.
"Why?" James asked.
"Because they probably be more in to talking with us if we left that out." Remus replied calmly as the boys drew nearer.
"Okay" Said James uncertain about it.
"Hi!" Sirius said as Harry and Ron approached the table next to them.
"Hi" Ron replied trying to sound cheerful.
"When are they handing out the timetables?" Harry asked nervously with excitement as he glanced at his mother and father.
"They already handed them out, here you go." James said handing them the timetables.
Harry looked down to find that they had double care of magical creatures first and then double potions.
"Hey who does potions?" Ron asked thinking how weird it would be been taught by someone else and not Snape.
" Professor Elstrat" James replied shuddering.
"What's he like?"
"Na she is an old witch who is wrinkly, strict and annoying. Actually she does look like a guy though so your kinder right!" James joked.
Mm Harry thought mirthfully sounds a bit like Aunt Marge only a witch one or an old female version of Snape.
"Do you know if there are any Quidditch positions?" asked Ron eagerly as they started eating.
"Why do you play?" Sirius and James asked quickly together.
"Yep"
"What position?"
"I play chaser and Harry plays seeker."
"Well in that case you'll get a position!" Sirius stated happily "Me and James play on the team as beaters. We'll have a chance and beating Malfoy and Snape again," he added.
"How well do you play?" Remus asked
"Oh pretty well."
"Well meet us at the pitch after Potions, and give a trial." Said James happily.
"Well we have to go to Care of magical creatures what do youse' have?" Harry asked excitedly.
"Uh we have that to." Remus said happily. As three professors watched in silence at them happily.[a/n notice everyone's happy? ]
~
"So who runs this class?" Harry asked as they reached the place where instead of Hagrids hut was a big glass classroom.
"Professor Grubbplank. Watch out she's a sexist cow." Remus warned leaving Harry astonished at the fact that Remus was behaving not-so much like the gentleman he would grow up to be.
"Oh" replied Harry remembering her from last year as she came into view. "Here she comes."
Professor Grubbplank came over in shabby, dirty robes of navy and in her hands were two large sacks that had something wriggling inside them.
"Students today we will be looking at the Safarty snake. These snakes aren't poisonous to humans but have venom that heals wounds so don't be afraid. From them we will be collecting this healing venom for the next few lessons. Any questions?" She droned out politely spotting the new students.
"Pair up now in threes." She added.
Harry, Ron and Lily went in one group while James, Remus and Sirius went in another. Just as they were about to start though it started to rain.
"Okay everyone carry the snakes into the classroom" Professor Grubbplank yelled" Don't let them get wet!"
"Here I'll take it." Harry offered as he saw a look of fear spread over Lily's face as Professor Grubbplank spoke about putting them in cloaks and robes.
"Sure go for it." Ron replied, as he too didn't like snakes very much either.
Remus, Sirius and James however were arguing about who would take it as well when Harry came up and offered to take theirs too. They gave the same response that Ron had gave Harry.
~
"Wow it's so much warmer in here then out there." Harry stated as out side it was pouring down with rain and hail.
"Yeah it's such a relief after been outside." Sirius said as they took the snake back which seemed to like staying curled up around Harry's neck.
"Here take this one. He seems to like the idea more of getting of." Harry said giving them Lily, Ron and his snake that went of straightaway.
"Thanks Harry" Sirius said while leaving to his group.
"Okay Harry but how are we going to get the venom now?" Lily asked sarcastically still thinking he was James.
"Easy we go get another snake!" Harry said calmly, as he went to see Professor Grubbplank who gave him another snake after he smiled at her. Use the old Potter charms works every time. Harry thought mirthfully at the look of astonishment on Lily's face.
"What happened?" She gawked.
"Professor Grubbplank gave me another snake and let me keep this one as a pet." Harry grinned.
"No way she's a cruel hearted bitch to everyone!" Lily hissed in amazement.
"Oh well" Harry said as he tried to collected the venom with Ron.
"Nice one Harry." Ron said congratulating his friend while Lily was still standing there in shock amazement at how he in her mind tamed the wild beast.
1 'Oh well must remember to tell the boys about this. Honestly she gave him the snake to keep never done that before with anyone!' She noted to herself. Wish I could do that.
2 "Hey Ron keep Lily distracted I want to ask the snake something." Harry whispered as he got the venom out of the spare snake.
3 "Okays" Ron hissed back.
4 "Hey Lily can you come and help me?" Ron asked breaking Lily out of her dream world of thoughts.
5 "Huh. Sure." She replied kneeling down next to Ron.
6 'Thank you Ron ' Harry mouthed back as he turned to the snake.
"Wake up" Harry hissed as he nudged the snake with a finger.
"What'sss upsss?" the snake hissed back in reply as I woke up.
"Hi I'm Harry. What's your name?"
"I'm Soediens. Soedes for short."
"Well I hate to say it but I'm going to look after you okay?" Harry said warmly.
"That'ssss okay with me'ss. I'm going backss to sleep." Sodes said with a yawn.
"Cool" Harry said placing the snake around his neck where it had been before.
"Harry can you help with this?" Ron asked as Harry turned around "We can't get the venom out of this one."
"Yeah sure." Harry replied
"Where'd the snake go?" Lily asked nervously. The thought of a snake on the ground near her feet was too much.
"Here" Harry pointed at his neck where the red and orange snake layed.
"Ugh" Lily shuddered looking at the snake.
"Harry help me with this will ya" Ron said as he tapped the other snakes fangs while Harry held the beaker underneath to catch the venom.
"Class please put the snakes back now as class is now dismissed. For homework read up about the Safarty snakes" Professor Grubbplank yelled, as there was a rush to put the snakes back.
~
"So what did you asked him?" Ron asked as they walked back to the castle for lunch.
"Just what his names is and if he minded being kept by me." Harry said nonchalantly "His name is Soedien or Soedes for short." Harry added.
"Oh yeah," Ron replied.
"Hey Lily didn't here me at all?" worriedly Harry asked thinking of his second year when the school found out about him been a parselmouth.
"Nope not at all I had her tapping the fangs so it shutted her up pretty good. How funny is that your mum hates snakes and you can talk to them and keep them as pets!" Ron laughed.
"Yeah it's weird because my father doesn't like them either!" Harry laughed.
"I can't wait for lunch!" Ron said hungrily rubbing his tummy. "Hey what are you going to give Soedes to eat?"
"I don't know I'll ask him after." Harry said following Ron into the Great Hall.
~
"Hey wait up guys!" Lily bellowed at James, Remus and Sirius as she ran up to them.
"Hi Lils." They chorused as she caught up to them.
"What's up?" James asked, as he and Lily were becoming friends.
"You know the new guy Harry he got one of those snakes as a pet!"
She panted.
"What that means he'd have to ask . . No way!" said James in disbelief.
"Yep. Walked straight up to her and asked her for a new snake and if he could keep that one." Lily said sincerely.
"Professor Grubbplank gave him the snake!" Remus said astonished at what had happened.
"Yep honest!" Lily said as they began to reach the Great Hall "He even put it around his neck!" She shrieked.
"Wow what did he call it?" Sirius smirked wondering what you could call a snake.
"I don't know he never said." Lily replied. "Why not ask them they're over there?" As they came up to the Gryffindor table.
"Hi Harry, Ron " They all said coming up to Harry and Ron.
"Hi" Harry and Ron said back.
"Hey what's that around your neck?" Sirius asked casually looking at the red and orange ring around his neck.
"Oh it's just a snake I got. From Professor Grubbplank." Harry calmly replied guessing Lily had told them and they needed proof.
"Really what's its name?" James asked in the same casual voice.
"Soedien or Soedes"
"Wow what type?" Remus asked letting in on the fact that he was interested.
"Safarty." Harry replied while eating his shepherds pie.
"How did you get her to give it to you?" Lily asked in shock amazement.
"I just asked her for it." Harry replied smiling slightly.
"Wow" the marauders and Lily mumbled. While finishing off there lunch.
"Potions next." Ron sighed in disgust at the thought.
"Yeah. We better get going, God knows how many points Professor Elstrat will take off." Sirius said as they got ready to leave.
"I wonder what she'll think of Soedes?" Harry asked Ron as they left the table with the others.
"As Sirius said 'God knows'." Ron laughed.
"Better put him away then." Harry said while quickly running to the Gryffindor dorms.
~
"Now as most of you know I'm Professor Elstrat." Professor Elstrat said coldly as the class filed in.
"We will start work on a simple truth potion not a very strong one though like a veritaserum." Harry and Ron smiled slightly as they had already done truth potions last year.
"Now please partner up in twos and we will begin the potion" She added
Harry and Ron went together at one while Sirius and James went together and Remus and Lily to another.
"The potion ingredients and method is on page 22 of Magical Potions and Drafts." Professor Elstrat said while strutting around trying to scare the Gryffindor students.
"Hmm" she said as she went over to Harry and Rons' cauldron. " Nice work so far." She said politely observing their work. Making people gasp.
Professor Elstrat just complemented them and they're Gryffindor students! Was the thought going through everyones' head especially the Marauders and Lily.
"Now everyone class is almost dismissed so we will tested Cerin and Easins' potion on someone" She said while looking for a victim. " Ah Nina Thomas" She said sauntering over with a goblet full of the potion to a young girl with brown hair and brown eyes. "You can test their potion."
"Yes Professor Elstrat." Nina said nervously before drinking the potion.
"Now what is your full name?" Professor Elstrat asked icily
"Nina Coora Thomas." Nina stated
"What school do you go to?"
"Hogwarts school of Witchery and Wizardry."
"Good what house are you in?"
"Gryffindor."
"Very well. Who is the Headmaster of this school?"
"Albus Dumbledore."
" Who and what house is the boy next to you in?"
" Lucious Malfoy and he is in the house of Slytherin."
"Has the potion worked?"
"Yes Miss it has worked."
"Good as you can see the potion has worked. Class dismissed." She stated sadly as two of her Gryffindor students got the potion and no Slytherins did.
~
"What is with these guys?" James asked his fellow Marauders and Lily as they got out Potions,
"I mean she complemented them on they're potion, that has never ever happened. Grubbplank gave one a snake as a pet." He added on in flustration.
"Maybe they've done that potion before." Lily said also amazed at what had happened.
"Hey we have to meet them on the Quidditch pitch remember?" Sirius said also trying to figure the two out.
"Yeah we better go, they got out of the classroom rather fast." Remus said, as they walked to Gryffindor, common room to fetch they're brooms.
"Are you coming Lily?" James asked.
"A sure. I'll meet youse down there okay." She replied walking off.
"You know I think you like her Prongs!" Sirius hissed as she went out off view.
"Not the way you're thinking of Sirius." James hissed back.
"What only as friends?" Sirius said getting bored.
"Yep only as friends." James said back grinning.
~
"Gosh where are they?" asked Ron impatiently as he and Harry had been flying around and racing for the last 15 minutes and in Ron's book that was to long.
"Hey give you another race?" Harry said challenging.
"Okay just watch out for that damn cat or Lily for that matter."
"Right well how about dive down this end then to the other end go up then to the middle dive down?"
"You're on." Ron said gleefully.
"Okay ready set go!" Harry yelled as he Ron flew down to a dive than up a few inches brushing their shoes against the grass. Then up they went neck to neck than hanging upside down flying to the middle of the pitch and dived down again just missing the ground by inches.
"We need a ref for this" Ron stated as they couldn't tell who had one the race.
"Yeah but it's fun still to race so wanna do it again?" Harry dared as he shot up into the air again.
"Okay! But this time 4 dives up and down to the middle of the pitch?" Ron smirked.
"Sure and this time you're on." Harry smirked back.
"Okay ready, set, go!" Ron bellowed as they dived up and down not noticing 4 people on the ground watched.
"I won, I won!" Harry said as Ron finished millimetres behind him.
"Do the first race again, Harry?" Ron said proudly even though he lost.
"Sure!"
"Good!"
"READY, SET, GO!" Harry bellowed as they done the same course they had done before.
"I'm gonna beat you Harry!" Ron bellowed as they reached the last part of the race. With s steady push of from the ground Ron pushed in front a head.
"Now I won, I won hah!" Ron yelled while doing a mock victory dive and lap.
"That's only because you pushed of the ground so hard. You competitive idiot." Harry laughed.
"Hey your just as competitive and you know it!" Ron yelled back.
"I'm getting Soedes!" Harry said while diving down to where the snake was resting.
"Hey Soedes." Harry hissed gently waking the snake up "Do you like the idea of flying at all?"
"Hmms Yes I would like to try. If okay with you?" Soedes hissed while crawling up Harry's outstretched arm.
"Of course it is!" Harry replied thinking. How weird it was to be back in this time without Hermione, Ginny, Hagrid, Fred, George and even Draco. And instead with His 15 year-old Mum, Dad, Sirius, Remus, Lucious Malfoy, Snape. Even talking to a pet snake. God this weird!
"Do you like flying so far?" He asked Soedes as he flew back to Ron.
"Yess itss very nice so farss." Soedes hissed while looking down at the ground.
"This is Ron he is a friend of mine." Harry said flying up to Ron.
"Hey Harry stop speaking like that and look down." Ron said as Harry came over.
"Oh Hi guys." Harry yelled trying not to hurt Ron or Soedes' ears.
"We better go down." Ron said quietly "Tell Soedes that it's nice to meet him."
Ron said while flying slowly down.
~
"Did you guys see that?" Sirius said finally regaining his voice again, "They have to be on the team!"
"I agree!" James said quietly as the two came down.
"Hi!" Harry and Ron said while dismounting their brooms.
"Hi sorry we were late had to sought something out with Professor McGonagall." Remus apologised.
"That's okay we got to have some fun while we waited." Ron said cheerfully.
"Okay well. You two already know about quidditch and how to fly so that's a relief." James sighed happily. "So shall we start the trials?"
"Yep" Harry and Ron chorused.
"Okay Harry you first and give Ron the snake please." Lily instructed as Harry put Soedes next to Ron on the ground before remounting his broom.
"Right Harry first of all we are going to trial you with golf balls before we use the snitch." Remus said kindly.
"Right!"
"Okay fire when ready James, Sirius" Remus yelled as the two started throwing golf balls in every direction they could think of. Even though they knew already that Harry would be on the team no matter what happened here.
"Wow!" Lily said as she watched from the ground with Ron, Harry catching all the balls and throwing them back to Remus.
"He's gotten better!" Ron said quietly as Soedes rested on his arm.
"Okay we're out of balls!" Sirius yelled while laughing at what he had said.
"Okay James get the snitch." Remus said sternly as James let the snitch go.
"Got it!" Harry yelled a minute after giving it back to James.
"What. . ." James stuttered as Harry gave him back the snitch.
"Okay once more to make sure it wasn't a fluke!" Remus said and sure enough, one minute later Harry had caught the snitch again.
"Okay how about dives?" Sirius said thinking out loud as Harry done a perfect dive from sixty metres straight to the ground making Lily gasp as he pulled out at the last moment.
"Mmm he is good." Remus said to himself
"Okay Ron your up!" Harry yelled flying back down to Soedes, Lily and Ron.
Ron's stomach lurched at this.
"Uh okay. Wish me luck?" Ron said as he mounted his broom.
"You won't need it." Harry replied.
"Hope so." Ron smiled as he flew up to Remus.
"Okay Ron practise goals and stealing the quaffle." Remus instructed throwing the red quaffle over to James.
"Right." Ron said before shooting of after James. Quickly Ron flew up James's left when he wasn't looking and stole the quaffle before racing to the other end of the field where Sirius was improvising as a the keeper.
Oh my good here he comes! Sirius thought while flying around trying to guess where Ron was going to shoot the quaffle.
Daring to look behind him Ron saw James racing up the pitch, as he looked in the right direction he threw the quaffle at the left ring making it go neatly in while Sirius was at the right side ring.
"Damn." Sirius cursed as he watched Ron throw the quaffle through the ring.
"Nice," James said coming up behind Ron. "Great skill with stealing the quaffle and shooting!"
"Thanks." Ron sighed with relief it was over. Well not exactly seen there's a match coming up soon. He thought to himself flying down.
"Well you're on the team too." Remus said happily.
" Hey it's time for dinner come on lets go!" Lily shouted above her grumbling stomach.
~
Oh food! Harry thought as he looked at the load of food on the table. Although he wasn't really starved by the Durslerys, he was just never really full.
"What's up Harry? Never seen food before?" Sirius joked.
"Well yes I've seen food before but not this much." He replied quietly.
"Oh" Sirius said quietly getting the idea.
"Hey do you guys do any pranks?" James said changing the subject.
"Why yes!" said Ron in a British accent with a mischievous grin.
"Well would you happen to like the idea of say a prank on Slytherin?" James asked casually.
"Why yes!" Ron and Harry replied grinning evilly.
"Okay well what about you Lily?"
"Sure." Lily eagerly replied.
"Well let's see? What can we do now?" asked Sirius seriously as they walked back to the castle.
~
It was late that night when the boys and Lily decided to pull their prank.
"Okay now let's start by redecorating the common room!" Sirius whispered as they creped down the hallways to the Slytherin Common room.
6.1 A/n Thank you everyone who reviewed my first chapter! I hope you like this chapter as well even though it was a bit boring and weird!
Disclaimer: Plus I don't own anything except for plot and new people
"Oh god it's weird here without Hermione!" said Ron as they walked into the common room.
"Oh Shit!" Harry whispered in panic.
"What's up?" Ron asked thoughtfully.
"Oh nothing except for the fact that they have the marauders map!" He whispered with his voice getting louder with panic as a look of shock came over Ron's face.
"Oh no. But hang on we have one too." Ron said quietly thinking as he pulled it out of his pocket with the invisibility cloak.
"So that's where it went!" Harry said as he went to put them up in his trunk.
"We better tell Sims and Proney," He added when he came back down the stairs.
"Yeah come on let's go now" Ron replied as he opened the door letting 3 screaming large things fall in on top of him.
"What the. ." Harry mumbled as jumped back.
~
"Why hello." Ron said as made out someone's hand on his left eye "Care to get off me."
" Ouch " said James as he pushed himself of the pile of bodies.
"You think you got hurt James what about me?" Remus yelled, "I was at the bottom under you and Sirius!"
"Excuse me but I was underneath all of you!" Ron shouted angrily as he dusted himself off and turned around to see to bodies on the floor rolling around in laughter at the scene.
"Shut Up!" Ron, Remus and James chorused causing the two to laugh even more.
"Okay." Harry choked out trying to stifle his laughter, as Ron had daggers in his eyes it seemed.
"Thank you." Ron replied "Now are you ready to go?" He asked forgetting about the 3 boys that had knocked him over.
"Yeah alright." He said also forgetting the 3boys.
"Hold on " He Ron heard Remus say as they walked back to the portrait door "We want to talk to you"
"Huh" They both said in reply as they remembered the 3 boys.
"Um who are you?" Harry asked, as he didn't really recognise the boy with light brown hair.
" I'm Remus Lupin and this is Sirius Black." He said importantly " Sirius is the goofy looking one and the other messy one is James Potter!"
"Oh" Harry managed to say before fainting again on Ron.
"Shit not again" Ron yelped as he lifted Harry on to the couch.
" Uh is he okay?" James asked nervously as he looked at the scar on Harry's forehead.
"Yeah he'll live." Ron sighed
"What's with the scar?" James asked looking at it.
"Oh he was hit with a curse that went wrong you could say." Ron smirked.
"Hey you don't sound very Scottish you know." Sirius stated,
"Well we were British students first then had to move to Scotland." Ron replied. While he and the guys took Harry up to the boys dorm.
"Really which school did you go to?" Remus asked as they lifted Harry on to his bed.
" Hogwarts for a days then had to move to Scotland." Ron panted, as Harry even though thin was awfully heavy.
"Did you learn where everything was back there in that first day?" Sirius asked.
"Well you could say that we did." Ron replied with a twinkle in his eye.
"Name a secret room or tunnel then." Sirius challenged
"How many do you want." Ron asked smugly.
"3."
"Okay,
1 there is one behind a with a hump and you say a password and that tunnel leads to the storage room of honeydukes
If you touch a knob on the whomping willow there is a tunnel in it that leads to the Shrieking shack.
There is a secret prefect bathroom behind the statue of Boris the bewildered.
And if it counts the kitchens are behind a bowl of fruit.
We both missed out on being sorted because we went exploring. Happy" Ron rattled of quietly while counting them off on his fingers. The others looked in horror though as Ron spoke about Whomping Willow.
"How did you find out about the Whomping willow?" Remus asked sternly.
' Oh shit' Ron thought to himself as he realised what he had just said.
"How did you find out about the Whomping willow?" Remus repeated getting worried.
"Uh I can't tell you that." Ron mumbled uneasily.
"Why not?" James asked, getting annoyed.
"Because its not my business to tell." Ron replied quietly sneaking a look at Remus.
"Guys come on I reckon we check the Honeydukes one." Sirius asked loudly as he noticed the tension in the air.
"Yeah sure." Remus replied shortly as he understood what Sirius meant.
"But" James said reluctantly to the idea of leaving.
"Come on James." Sirius demanded while dragging his friend out the door.
Thank god they're gone Ron thought gleefully as he watched them go out.
I'm in so much shit now! They know we know about the Whomping Willow. He screamed in his head. Better wake Harry up.
"Harry, Harry!" said Ron to the almost motionless body.
"Mmm" Harry mumbled as he came back to reality.
"Oh thank god Harry you won't believe what just happened." Ron said sadly.
~
Mean while over in the common room Remus, Sirius and James were discussing what had just happened.
"How could he know?" James asked filled with curiosity and anger.
"I don't know you haven't told anyone Remus?" Sirius said thoughtfully as he scratched his head, deep in thought.
"Oh come of it like I'm going to tell anyone about it!" replied Remus sarcastically throwing a pillow at him.
"Hey!" Sirius yelled as it hit him in the face.
"Hey back to reality, the new kids know about the W.W!" James hissed.
"Yeah okay but hey what can we do?" Sirius asked
"I don't know but we'll think of something though" James replied.
"I'm going to bed." Remus yawned while heading off to the boys' dorms.
"Goodnight then." They chorused in reply as they started to play a game of exploding snap.
"Hi guys." Lily said as she sat down next to them, "What you doing? Find anything out about the Scottish students?"
"Well yes. We found out they were Hogwarts students then Scottish and now Hogwarts, they know a lot of the secret rooms of Hogwarts and tunnels." Sirius said nonchalantly as the stack of cards exploded in his face.
"Really that all?" Lily said while checking her homework.
"Yep"
"Hey I'm going to bed. Goodnight." James said standing.
"Goodnight." Lily and Sirius said together.
~
"Oh Shit. Sirius." Remus yelled as he and Sirius left the Great Hall.
"What?" asked Sirius bewildered by the fact that Remus had swore.
"The marauders map!" He hissed.
"Oh crap!" Sirius replied as he thought of the consequences of what would happen if their younger selves saw their names on the paper.
"What about Harry!" Remus hissed while thoughts rushed in his head.
"What do we do?" asked Sirius sarcastically, making Remus frown" Sorry. I keep on remembering that muggle movie Harry told us about."
"Yeah I remember that one to." Remus said thoughtfully" We better go see Harry though."
"Okay!" And with that they both hurried off to Gryffindor common room.
~
"Ron that was stupid but it could be worst." Harry said trying to cheer Ron up" Think what could happen if they figured out about us two, or the fact that we know about Lupin, or the snake thing or about what happens in the future." Harry whispered.
"You know your making me feel a bit better. Just think if we got caught on the map." Said Ron groggily" I think I'll go to sleep now."
"Same. Goodnight." Yawned Harry in reply.
Just then 2 figures rushed in the room quickly waking Ron and Harry.
"Harry, Ron!" they said while looking for the two.
"Yeah what, who is it?" asked Ron trying to stifle a yawn.
"Its Sims and Proney." Sirius said in a hushed voice.
"What are you doing?" Harry asked blinking his new blue eyes.
Remus gave a small smile" Well you see we forgot about the marauders map. And you can guess what might happen if anyone looked at it with our names on it."
"Yeah we were going to see you first thing in the morning about it. Plus we have the invisibility cloak and map from our time too." Harry remembered.
"Ah right. Well we better get the other one then."
"Check where we are first though." Sirius said thoughtfully.
Harry looked
Down at the map to see 3 dots moving towards the boys dorms." Oh no quick hide!" Harry hissed as he threw the cloak over the top of them, while the door slowly creaked open.
"Ah your awake!" the younger Sirius said cheerfully as the 3 walked in spotting the other 2 boys up and talking.
"Yeah we were just about to go to bed." Ron said quickly looking nervously at the spot where the older Sirius and Remus had been standing and Harry.
"Oh well goodnight." Remus said breaking the silence.
"Nice to see you awake Harry Cerin." He added politely.
"Yeah you to. Goodnight." Harry replied almost fainting again.
"Night." They replied while climbing in to bed.
~
"Sirius quick, get the map!" Remus hissed, after they had all gone to sleep.
"Okay" Sirius whispered creeping over to James's trunk.
"Hurry Sirius. You're starting to wake up." Remus said starting to panic.
"Okay" Sirius replied while getting the cloak over himself.
"What. . ." The younger Sirius yawned while looking around before falling back to sleep.
"Okay lets go!" the older Sirius hissed as they placed the cloak into Harry's hands ran out the door.
"Gosh that was lucky! Hey I had orange hair in there" Sirius said as they got outside the common room with no one seeing them.
"Yeah I know. We're so curious back there, can you imagine what we're going to ask them," Remus said in a matter-of-fact tone.
"Yeah probably right, but what have you got for tomorrows lesson?"
"Hmm the Boggarts. We didn't do anything on them at all when we were here."
"Oh yeah but what about Harry?" Asked Sirius worriedly.
" Oh I'll just do what I done last time." Remus replied calmly.
"Oh okay see ya later." Sirius waved as they reached their rooms.
"Yeah goodnight, see you tomorrow."
~
The next morning Harry and Ron were dreading the thought of what would happen when they had to talk to the 3 marauders and when they would attend were running as well as the other classes. Especially the class, that Sirius and Remus were running. As they woke up to an empty Dorm.
"Mornin Harry" Ron said glumly as they got changed into their robes.
"Mornin"
"Ready for breakfast?" Ron said, as his stomach wouldn't wait much longer.
"Yeah sure, let's go." Harry replied sadly as he thought about what might happen.
"Hey we never thought about Quidditch when we came here!" Ron said trying to change the mood.
"Yeah I wonder what positions they have?" said Harry cheering up a bit.
" Yeah wanna check it out after?" Ron asked happily. I might get in! He gleefully thought to himself.
"Yeah sure." Harry said before looking melancholy at the doors to the Great Hall.
"Here goes nothing" He mumbled as he and Ron walked in.
~
"Hey here they come!" Lily hissed to Sirius, Remus and James as Harry and Ron came slowly over to the Gryffindor table.
"Hey forget about what happened last night." Remus said as the 2 boys looked gloomily up.
"Why?" James asked.
"Because they probably be more in to talking with us if we left that out." Remus replied calmly as the boys drew nearer.
"Okay" Said James uncertain about it.
"Hi!" Sirius said as Harry and Ron approached the table next to them.
"Hi" Ron replied trying to sound cheerful.
"When are they handing out the timetables?" Harry asked nervously with excitement as he glanced at his mother and father.
"They already handed them out, here you go." James said handing them the timetables.
Harry looked down to find that they had double care of magical creatures first and then double potions.
"Hey who does potions?" Ron asked thinking how weird it would be been taught by someone else and not Snape.
" Professor Elstrat" James replied shuddering.
"What's he like?"
"Na she is an old witch who is wrinkly, strict and annoying. Actually she does look like a guy though so your kinder right!" James joked.
Mm Harry thought mirthfully sounds a bit like Aunt Marge only a witch one or an old female version of Snape.
"Do you know if there are any Quidditch positions?" asked Ron eagerly as they started eating.
"Why do you play?" Sirius and James asked quickly together.
"Yep"
"What position?"
"I play chaser and Harry plays seeker."
"Well in that case you'll get a position!" Sirius stated happily "Me and James play on the team as beaters. We'll have a chance and beating Malfoy and Snape again," he added.
"How well do you play?" Remus asked
"Oh pretty well."
"Well meet us at the pitch after Potions, and give a trial." Said James happily.
"Well we have to go to Care of magical creatures what do youse' have?" Harry asked excitedly.
"Uh we have that to." Remus said happily. As three professors watched in silence at them happily.[a/n notice everyone's happy? ]
~
"So who runs this class?" Harry asked as they reached the place where instead of Hagrids hut was a big glass classroom.
"Professor Grubbplank. Watch out she's a sexist cow." Remus warned leaving Harry astonished at the fact that Remus was behaving not-so much like the gentleman he would grow up to be.
"Oh" replied Harry remembering her from last year as she came into view. "Here she comes."
Professor Grubbplank came over in shabby, dirty robes of navy and in her hands were two large sacks that had something wriggling inside them.
"Students today we will be looking at the Safarty snake. These snakes aren't poisonous to humans but have venom that heals wounds so don't be afraid. From them we will be collecting this healing venom for the next few lessons. Any questions?" She droned out politely spotting the new students.
"Pair up now in threes." She added.
Harry, Ron and Lily went in one group while James, Remus and Sirius went in another. Just as they were about to start though it started to rain.
"Okay everyone carry the snakes into the classroom" Professor Grubbplank yelled" Don't let them get wet!"
"Here I'll take it." Harry offered as he saw a look of fear spread over Lily's face as Professor Grubbplank spoke about putting them in cloaks and robes.
"Sure go for it." Ron replied, as he too didn't like snakes very much either.
Remus, Sirius and James however were arguing about who would take it as well when Harry came up and offered to take theirs too. They gave the same response that Ron had gave Harry.
~
"Wow it's so much warmer in here then out there." Harry stated as out side it was pouring down with rain and hail.
"Yeah it's such a relief after been outside." Sirius said as they took the snake back which seemed to like staying curled up around Harry's neck.
"Here take this one. He seems to like the idea more of getting of." Harry said giving them Lily, Ron and his snake that went of straightaway.
"Thanks Harry" Sirius said while leaving to his group.
"Okay Harry but how are we going to get the venom now?" Lily asked sarcastically still thinking he was James.
"Easy we go get another snake!" Harry said calmly, as he went to see Professor Grubbplank who gave him another snake after he smiled at her. Use the old Potter charms works every time. Harry thought mirthfully at the look of astonishment on Lily's face.
"What happened?" She gawked.
"Professor Grubbplank gave me another snake and let me keep this one as a pet." Harry grinned.
"No way she's a cruel hearted bitch to everyone!" Lily hissed in amazement.
"Oh well" Harry said as he tried to collected the venom with Ron.
"Nice one Harry." Ron said congratulating his friend while Lily was still standing there in shock amazement at how he in her mind tamed the wild beast.
1 'Oh well must remember to tell the boys about this. Honestly she gave him the snake to keep never done that before with anyone!' She noted to herself. Wish I could do that.
2 "Hey Ron keep Lily distracted I want to ask the snake something." Harry whispered as he got the venom out of the spare snake.
3 "Okays" Ron hissed back.
4 "Hey Lily can you come and help me?" Ron asked breaking Lily out of her dream world of thoughts.
5 "Huh. Sure." She replied kneeling down next to Ron.
6 'Thank you Ron ' Harry mouthed back as he turned to the snake.
"Wake up" Harry hissed as he nudged the snake with a finger.
"What'sss upsss?" the snake hissed back in reply as I woke up.
"Hi I'm Harry. What's your name?"
"I'm Soediens. Soedes for short."
"Well I hate to say it but I'm going to look after you okay?" Harry said warmly.
"That'ssss okay with me'ss. I'm going backss to sleep." Sodes said with a yawn.
"Cool" Harry said placing the snake around his neck where it had been before.
"Harry can you help with this?" Ron asked as Harry turned around "We can't get the venom out of this one."
"Yeah sure." Harry replied
"Where'd the snake go?" Lily asked nervously. The thought of a snake on the ground near her feet was too much.
"Here" Harry pointed at his neck where the red and orange snake layed.
"Ugh" Lily shuddered looking at the snake.
"Harry help me with this will ya" Ron said as he tapped the other snakes fangs while Harry held the beaker underneath to catch the venom.
"Class please put the snakes back now as class is now dismissed. For homework read up about the Safarty snakes" Professor Grubbplank yelled, as there was a rush to put the snakes back.
~
"So what did you asked him?" Ron asked as they walked back to the castle for lunch.
"Just what his names is and if he minded being kept by me." Harry said nonchalantly "His name is Soedien or Soedes for short." Harry added.
"Oh yeah," Ron replied.
"Hey Lily didn't here me at all?" worriedly Harry asked thinking of his second year when the school found out about him been a parselmouth.
"Nope not at all I had her tapping the fangs so it shutted her up pretty good. How funny is that your mum hates snakes and you can talk to them and keep them as pets!" Ron laughed.
"Yeah it's weird because my father doesn't like them either!" Harry laughed.
"I can't wait for lunch!" Ron said hungrily rubbing his tummy. "Hey what are you going to give Soedes to eat?"
"I don't know I'll ask him after." Harry said following Ron into the Great Hall.
~
"Hey wait up guys!" Lily bellowed at James, Remus and Sirius as she ran up to them.
"Hi Lils." They chorused as she caught up to them.
"What's up?" James asked, as he and Lily were becoming friends.
"You know the new guy Harry he got one of those snakes as a pet!"
She panted.
"What that means he'd have to ask . . No way!" said James in disbelief.
"Yep. Walked straight up to her and asked her for a new snake and if he could keep that one." Lily said sincerely.
"Professor Grubbplank gave him the snake!" Remus said astonished at what had happened.
"Yep honest!" Lily said as they began to reach the Great Hall "He even put it around his neck!" She shrieked.
"Wow what did he call it?" Sirius smirked wondering what you could call a snake.
"I don't know he never said." Lily replied. "Why not ask them they're over there?" As they came up to the Gryffindor table.
"Hi Harry, Ron " They all said coming up to Harry and Ron.
"Hi" Harry and Ron said back.
"Hey what's that around your neck?" Sirius asked casually looking at the red and orange ring around his neck.
"Oh it's just a snake I got. From Professor Grubbplank." Harry calmly replied guessing Lily had told them and they needed proof.
"Really what's its name?" James asked in the same casual voice.
"Soedien or Soedes"
"Wow what type?" Remus asked letting in on the fact that he was interested.
"Safarty." Harry replied while eating his shepherds pie.
"How did you get her to give it to you?" Lily asked in shock amazement.
"I just asked her for it." Harry replied smiling slightly.
"Wow" the marauders and Lily mumbled. While finishing off there lunch.
"Potions next." Ron sighed in disgust at the thought.
"Yeah. We better get going, God knows how many points Professor Elstrat will take off." Sirius said as they got ready to leave.
"I wonder what she'll think of Soedes?" Harry asked Ron as they left the table with the others.
"As Sirius said 'God knows'." Ron laughed.
"Better put him away then." Harry said while quickly running to the Gryffindor dorms.
~
"Now as most of you know I'm Professor Elstrat." Professor Elstrat said coldly as the class filed in.
"We will start work on a simple truth potion not a very strong one though like a veritaserum." Harry and Ron smiled slightly as they had already done truth potions last year.
"Now please partner up in twos and we will begin the potion" She added
Harry and Ron went together at one while Sirius and James went together and Remus and Lily to another.
"The potion ingredients and method is on page 22 of Magical Potions and Drafts." Professor Elstrat said while strutting around trying to scare the Gryffindor students.
"Hmm" she said as she went over to Harry and Rons' cauldron. " Nice work so far." She said politely observing their work. Making people gasp.
Professor Elstrat just complemented them and they're Gryffindor students! Was the thought going through everyones' head especially the Marauders and Lily.
"Now everyone class is almost dismissed so we will tested Cerin and Easins' potion on someone" She said while looking for a victim. " Ah Nina Thomas" She said sauntering over with a goblet full of the potion to a young girl with brown hair and brown eyes. "You can test their potion."
"Yes Professor Elstrat." Nina said nervously before drinking the potion.
"Now what is your full name?" Professor Elstrat asked icily
"Nina Coora Thomas." Nina stated
"What school do you go to?"
"Hogwarts school of Witchery and Wizardry."
"Good what house are you in?"
"Gryffindor."
"Very well. Who is the Headmaster of this school?"
"Albus Dumbledore."
" Who and what house is the boy next to you in?"
" Lucious Malfoy and he is in the house of Slytherin."
"Has the potion worked?"
"Yes Miss it has worked."
"Good as you can see the potion has worked. Class dismissed." She stated sadly as two of her Gryffindor students got the potion and no Slytherins did.
~
"What is with these guys?" James asked his fellow Marauders and Lily as they got out Potions,
"I mean she complemented them on they're potion, that has never ever happened. Grubbplank gave one a snake as a pet." He added on in flustration.
"Maybe they've done that potion before." Lily said also amazed at what had happened.
"Hey we have to meet them on the Quidditch pitch remember?" Sirius said also trying to figure the two out.
"Yeah we better go, they got out of the classroom rather fast." Remus said, as they walked to Gryffindor, common room to fetch they're brooms.
"Are you coming Lily?" James asked.
"A sure. I'll meet youse down there okay." She replied walking off.
"You know I think you like her Prongs!" Sirius hissed as she went out off view.
"Not the way you're thinking of Sirius." James hissed back.
"What only as friends?" Sirius said getting bored.
"Yep only as friends." James said back grinning.
~
"Gosh where are they?" asked Ron impatiently as he and Harry had been flying around and racing for the last 15 minutes and in Ron's book that was to long.
"Hey give you another race?" Harry said challenging.
"Okay just watch out for that damn cat or Lily for that matter."
"Right well how about dive down this end then to the other end go up then to the middle dive down?"
"You're on." Ron said gleefully.
"Okay ready set go!" Harry yelled as he Ron flew down to a dive than up a few inches brushing their shoes against the grass. Then up they went neck to neck than hanging upside down flying to the middle of the pitch and dived down again just missing the ground by inches.
"We need a ref for this" Ron stated as they couldn't tell who had one the race.
"Yeah but it's fun still to race so wanna do it again?" Harry dared as he shot up into the air again.
"Okay! But this time 4 dives up and down to the middle of the pitch?" Ron smirked.
"Sure and this time you're on." Harry smirked back.
"Okay ready, set, go!" Ron bellowed as they dived up and down not noticing 4 people on the ground watched.
"I won, I won!" Harry said as Ron finished millimetres behind him.
"Do the first race again, Harry?" Ron said proudly even though he lost.
"Sure!"
"Good!"
"READY, SET, GO!" Harry bellowed as they done the same course they had done before.
"I'm gonna beat you Harry!" Ron bellowed as they reached the last part of the race. With s steady push of from the ground Ron pushed in front a head.
"Now I won, I won hah!" Ron yelled while doing a mock victory dive and lap.
"That's only because you pushed of the ground so hard. You competitive idiot." Harry laughed.
"Hey your just as competitive and you know it!" Ron yelled back.
"I'm getting Soedes!" Harry said while diving down to where the snake was resting.
"Hey Soedes." Harry hissed gently waking the snake up "Do you like the idea of flying at all?"
"Hmms Yes I would like to try. If okay with you?" Soedes hissed while crawling up Harry's outstretched arm.
"Of course it is!" Harry replied thinking. How weird it was to be back in this time without Hermione, Ginny, Hagrid, Fred, George and even Draco. And instead with His 15 year-old Mum, Dad, Sirius, Remus, Lucious Malfoy, Snape. Even talking to a pet snake. God this weird!
"Do you like flying so far?" He asked Soedes as he flew back to Ron.
"Yess itss very nice so farss." Soedes hissed while looking down at the ground.
"This is Ron he is a friend of mine." Harry said flying up to Ron.
"Hey Harry stop speaking like that and look down." Ron said as Harry came over.
"Oh Hi guys." Harry yelled trying not to hurt Ron or Soedes' ears.
"We better go down." Ron said quietly "Tell Soedes that it's nice to meet him."
Ron said while flying slowly down.
~
"Did you guys see that?" Sirius said finally regaining his voice again, "They have to be on the team!"
"I agree!" James said quietly as the two came down.
"Hi!" Harry and Ron said while dismounting their brooms.
"Hi sorry we were late had to sought something out with Professor McGonagall." Remus apologised.
"That's okay we got to have some fun while we waited." Ron said cheerfully.
"Okay well. You two already know about quidditch and how to fly so that's a relief." James sighed happily. "So shall we start the trials?"
"Yep" Harry and Ron chorused.
"Okay Harry you first and give Ron the snake please." Lily instructed as Harry put Soedes next to Ron on the ground before remounting his broom.
"Right Harry first of all we are going to trial you with golf balls before we use the snitch." Remus said kindly.
"Right!"
"Okay fire when ready James, Sirius" Remus yelled as the two started throwing golf balls in every direction they could think of. Even though they knew already that Harry would be on the team no matter what happened here.
"Wow!" Lily said as she watched from the ground with Ron, Harry catching all the balls and throwing them back to Remus.
"He's gotten better!" Ron said quietly as Soedes rested on his arm.
"Okay we're out of balls!" Sirius yelled while laughing at what he had said.
"Okay James get the snitch." Remus said sternly as James let the snitch go.
"Got it!" Harry yelled a minute after giving it back to James.
"What. . ." James stuttered as Harry gave him back the snitch.
"Okay once more to make sure it wasn't a fluke!" Remus said and sure enough, one minute later Harry had caught the snitch again.
"Okay how about dives?" Sirius said thinking out loud as Harry done a perfect dive from sixty metres straight to the ground making Lily gasp as he pulled out at the last moment.
"Mmm he is good." Remus said to himself
"Okay Ron your up!" Harry yelled flying back down to Soedes, Lily and Ron.
Ron's stomach lurched at this.
"Uh okay. Wish me luck?" Ron said as he mounted his broom.
"You won't need it." Harry replied.
"Hope so." Ron smiled as he flew up to Remus.
"Okay Ron practise goals and stealing the quaffle." Remus instructed throwing the red quaffle over to James.
"Right." Ron said before shooting of after James. Quickly Ron flew up James's left when he wasn't looking and stole the quaffle before racing to the other end of the field where Sirius was improvising as a the keeper.
Oh my good here he comes! Sirius thought while flying around trying to guess where Ron was going to shoot the quaffle.
Daring to look behind him Ron saw James racing up the pitch, as he looked in the right direction he threw the quaffle at the left ring making it go neatly in while Sirius was at the right side ring.
"Damn." Sirius cursed as he watched Ron throw the quaffle through the ring.
"Nice," James said coming up behind Ron. "Great skill with stealing the quaffle and shooting!"
"Thanks." Ron sighed with relief it was over. Well not exactly seen there's a match coming up soon. He thought to himself flying down.
"Well you're on the team too." Remus said happily.
" Hey it's time for dinner come on lets go!" Lily shouted above her grumbling stomach.
~
Oh food! Harry thought as he looked at the load of food on the table. Although he wasn't really starved by the Durslerys, he was just never really full.
"What's up Harry? Never seen food before?" Sirius joked.
"Well yes I've seen food before but not this much." He replied quietly.
"Oh" Sirius said quietly getting the idea.
"Hey do you guys do any pranks?" James said changing the subject.
"Why yes!" said Ron in a British accent with a mischievous grin.
"Well would you happen to like the idea of say a prank on Slytherin?" James asked casually.
"Why yes!" Ron and Harry replied grinning evilly.
"Okay well what about you Lily?"
"Sure." Lily eagerly replied.
"Well let's see? What can we do now?" asked Sirius seriously as they walked back to the castle.
~
It was late that night when the boys and Lily decided to pull their prank.
"Okay now let's start by redecorating the common room!" Sirius whispered as they creped down the hallways to the Slytherin Common room.
6.1 A/n Thank you everyone who reviewed my first chapter! I hope you like this chapter as well even though it was a bit boring and weird!
