A/N- Whoa Babes! His took really long only because I was too lazy to work
on it. well… ::shrug:: It's… uh… weird. You'll find out about Peter's
secret friend. Intriguing, eh?
Nah not really… lol.
Disclaimer- Just look at the previous one please. The only dudes I added in are the professor's and… that Hufflepuff.
*~*~~*~*Think Fast*~*~~*~*
"Professor McGonnagall," James panted running into the main hall wildly.
All the students looked up staring in confusion at James.
"Where's Peter?" Oh James asked nobody in particular.
Nobody answered.
"WHERE'S PETER?" James roared.
"I saw him come in here a few minutes ago," A sixth year, Hufflepuff spoke up. "I think he went into Professor Solling's office."
James nodded his thanks and ran off.
Lily got up and quickly ran after him.
Curtly, Sirius ran after her; she had his muffin in her hand.
Jenny looked at Elizabeth in bewilderment. Elizabeth though, was watching Remus intently.
"Lizzy, I think you can focus on other things now. Peter came in running shouting something about Dumbledore. Shortly, James came in running yelling something about Peter and McGonnagall. He didn't care that the person who answered his question was a hot girl from the sixth year, I can safely say something isn't right." Jenny said trying to catch Elizabeth's attention.
Still keeping her eyes on Remus, she slowly turned her head to Jenny. Jenny looked helpless at her.
"Oh never mind, you keep your eye on Remus. I'm going." Jenny left Elizabeth at the table, while she ran to catch up with Sirius.
"What's her problem?" Elizabeth asked, more-or-less to herself.
"I guess she's just worried, aren't you?"
Elizabeth jumped in the air from fright.
"Remus!"
The thin, tan haired boy grinned. "That's my name, don't wear it out!"
Forgetting that she was against Remus, she jumped on his hands and gave him a huge hug. This took Remus by surprise and thought it were best to just embrace her back.
Soon enough, Elizabeth's senses returned. She quickly let go, and straightened her hair, and the creases she might've made in her clothes.
Remus chortled. Although Elizabeth didn't smile, her eyes flickered.
"Sorry," She said quietly.
Remus didn't mind at all. In fact, he was glad, he missed her and the others. The hug just made him felt more welcomed.
"Don't think I like you or anything, I mean you're still the guy who picked Snape over me." Elizabeth said, without looking him in the eye. Of course this wasn't true, she longed for his friendship again.
"I don't," Remus said quietly, hoping she was lying.
"Good."
"Good."
"Fine."
"I know."
"Glad you understand something."
"Yeah," Remus said, grinning now.
"I gotta go now," Elizabeth said getting up.
"Bye."
Without answering him, Elizabeth got up and started to go where Jenny previously headed.
She looked back at him before departing the room, and what she saw shocked her. She felt a tear tugging the edge of her eye. She winced and continued. She felt Remus's eyes staring at the back of her head, but continued anyway.
*~*~~*~*~~*~*
"Dang!" Remus whispered.
"So Lupin, that your girlfriend?"
Quick as a cat, Remus shifted his body towards hers.
"Joan, what do you want?" Remus asked irritated.
"Actually, I want a favor," she replied freely.
"What else is new?" Remus said under his breath. Joan replied with a sweet smile. She then leaned in for a kiss. As soon as Remus figured out what was going on, he quickly got her off him.
"JOAN? What is your problem?" Remus stormed.
"Tsk! Orders from Snape. He said to make your life terrible while you remain with us. So, I saw your girlfriend over there watching me, so I decided to make her upset by kissing you in front of her."
"She was watching? JOAN!" Remus said completely outraged.
She just shrugged and moved on. Joan didn't even seem to know the amount of chaos that would emerge.
*~*~~*~*~~*~*
"Professor! Professor!" Peter said skidding across the hallway, trying to get to get to any professor in sight. "Professor! Professor! PROFESSOR!"
"Mr. Pettigrew! Please do calm down!"
"Professor Saff-a-something-" Peter started.
"Excuse me! You will greet me by my proper name. Now say my name CORRECTLY!"
Peter was in no mood to be correct. But, if this is what it took, then it must be done.
He took a deep breath and said, "Professor Saffelleliterkenchion-"
"Much better. Now you may continue."
Peter tried very hard not to burst out, but he kept his anger inside.
Tom taught him how to do that.
*~*~~*~*~~*~*
"James! James! Wait up.. please.." Lily said, stopping panting for breath.
James took a quick glance at Lily and kept on running. He didn't really know where he was running to… just to someone. "Where is Professor McGonnagall? You'd think that she would be here at a situation like this…" James mumbled.
He felt some one tug on his arm and stopped dead in his tracks.
"Lily! Stop! I need Professor—"
"McGonnagall. I know. Now, do you mind explaining?" Lily asked almost as impatient as James felt.
"Not now. It's too hectic… and complicated and… Will you please let go of my arm?"
"JAMES!"
"Fine… come with me if you want, but you have to keep up with me," James said flatly. He snatched his wrist from Lily, expecting her to turn around; James was the fastest kid in the fifth year. With all his Quidditch training, one would be surprised if he weren't.
James started darting across the halls and started screaming the professor's name, not knowing that he would never reach her in time.
*~*~~*~*~~*~*
"So, if you give me your muffin, I won't bother you for an hour? Is that settled?" Sirius asked while strolling with Jenny.
Jenny rolled her eyes, and replied, "Fine…" and she handed him her muffin. "So, are you and Lily… a 'thing' now?" She asked while Sirius indulged himself with her muffin.
Sirius lifted his eyebrows questioningly, and quietly said, "I think so." He put what was rest of the muffin down, and asked curtly, "Why?"
Jenny shrugged.
"So dahling, what about *your* love life, eh?"
Jenny blushed.
"I dunno…" she managed to get out.
"Well, well… we'll see what we can do about that!" Sirius exclaimed. "You says you like Adam, eh?"
*~*~~*~*~~*~*
Peter thought of Tom for a moment. Tom was Peter's *real* friend. He wasn't like what's–their-names who call themselves friends. Tom treated Peter like a *true* friend. True, Tom is an adult *and* a professor, and it is a bit unusual for a child and a professor to have more than a student-teacher bond… but then again, Tom was unusual.
Tom was under a different last name. Not his real surname. Once when Peter asked him why he doesn't just use the name 'Riddle' and that'll be the end of it, Tom just muttered something.
Peter never asked again.
"Peter! What are you doing here?"
Peter was so caught up with his thoughts; he didn't even realize the professor in front of him.
"I'm sorry. Please, Professor, do you know where Professor McGonnagall is? I really need her!" Peter asked urgently.
The professor looked a little perplexed, but answered simply, "She isn't in Hogwarts at the current time. But I could help if you need anything," the professor offered.
Peter felt so helpless so he agreed.
"Please follow me Professor. Keep up… it's an emergency!"
*~*~~*~*~~*~*
James was running around the school frantically. The picture of Professor Dumbledore kept running through his mind. The thought that something could have possibly happened to him was frightening.
"James, please. Is there a way I can help?" Lily asked very far behind.
James didn't even shift his head, but yelled over his shoulder, "No! Just find Professor McGonnagall."
"But, she's not in here now," Lily said closer to James because he had to slow down to talk.
James stopped dead in his tracks. His mind worked very fast now. Speedily his mind thought of a different possible way of helping Professor Dumbledore. His mind focused on asking Lily about what to do. Then he thought about bringing Professor Dumbledore in the building and to ask Madam Pomfry to tend to him. Every now and then, the picture of Dumbledore lying helplessly by the tree stump entered his mind.
Lily stared at him, trying to read his facial expression. But all she saw was a very perplexed boy standing in front of her looking helpless.
"I got it!" James almost shouted. "Lily, I'll need you for this. Please run as fast as you can. Follow me."
Lily obeyed readily.
*~*~~*~*~~*~*
"Snape! You went too far," Remus said trailing behind Severus Snape, carrying his books.
"Ah, so we're back to Snape, eh?"
"Why'd you do that, huh? I'm sure that you're not pure evil. You've got *some* good in you. But I'm starting to doubt that now. You've already managed to separate me from my friends, and you want to make it worse? What… are you *content* with my anger and resentment?" Remus slammed Snape's books on the closest bench in sight. "I've had enough!"
Snape looked slightly startled by his books being slammed, but didn't seem at all alarmed by what Remus said. "Well… if that's what you wish, then fine."
Remus looked at him determined. "Good. Bye," and Remus swiftly turned away heading to the president of Nowhere Ville.
Remus only realized what had happened a half an hour later. "Did Snape just consent on letting me go?" Remus question out loud.
"WHAT?" Georgia-Yvette asked shock. (A/N- You thought that you wouldn't be mentioned, eh?? That shows how much you know me! HA! Lol!) "Severus let you go?"
Remus quickly glanced up at Georgia-Yvette looking just as questionable as she was.
"That's what it seems like… but that can't be…" Remus inquired.
"Of course not!" Georgia-Yvette stated. "I was beginning to like you, you know…"
Remus looked at her for a moment, and then quickly looked away. "Yeah well, I have to go. Bye"
*~*~~*~*~~*~*
"Here, Professor. This is what I was talking about. See that man by the tree? Yeah, that's Professor Dumbledore," Peter said.
The professor looked very surprised, but not at all scared of the matter.
"Was anybody watching him while you were getting me?"
"Well," Peter started, "James Potter was supposed to be here…?" Peter asked, wondering.
"Well, makes no difference," the professor said with a wave of his hand. "As long as you have help now." He picked up Professor Dumbledore and slung him around his shoulder and said, "Peter, why don't you go inside. I'll take him to Madam Pomfry right away. It's just that it would be a burden for me to have to watch both you and Dumbledore while I carry him inside."
Peter looked slightly offended, but walked away. "Oh, Peter. Please, if you see Mr. Potter, please tell him it's taken care of." Peter nodded slowly and continued walking.
"Thanks, Professor Riddle," Peter said before he started running.
Tom Marvolo Riddle slightly nodded in reply, but muttered, "It's Professor *Jelson*, Peter."
And he was off.
