Help from the Stars, Part 1
„ So it's full moon today again, right?" asked Sirius Black, a tall boy with messy black hair, his friend James Potter, who was a few inches smaller than Sirius but had also messy hair just brown.
"Yeah, come on, let's get Remus!"
When they reached the seventh years boys' dorm they already saw a very pale and tired looking Remus Lupin standing in the door frame and waiting for them to arrive along with Peter Pettigrew.
"Hey you gyus, ready to go?" bounced Sirius, full of energy just as always.
James put out his invisible cloak and threw it all over them.
When they reached the Whooping Willow James, Sirius and Peter transformed into their animals and went into the secret tunnel.
" Where are they??? We looked all over the castle? They can't have just disappeard!" said an exhausted Lily Evans to her two best friends Melinda Warren and Katherine Sallers.
They were looking for James, Sirius and Remus for over an hour now and were getting slightly annoyed by now.
" They have to be somewhere around here, let's look on the grounds!"
They searched down by the lake and near Hagrid's hut, but the three boys were nowhere to be found.
When they decided to go back into the castle, they passed the Whooping Willow and saw four figures appearing.
They couldn't believe their eyes: James, Sirius and Peter had jus transformed from some kinds of animals back to their human figure.
They ran over to where the boys were standing.
"Oh my god James! You .... you ........ just transformed! You all were animals!"
" Lily, Kat, Mel what are you doing here? "
" We were looking for you three all over the castle! But we could ask you this question as well! And Lily's right: you had been animal just a minute before!" said Melinda, looking slightly frightened and of course a little surprised.
" We want to hear what just happened! EXPLAIN !!!! NOW !!!!!!", shouted Katherine.
" Shhhhhh do you want to wake up the whole castle? And I told you James, we should have told them!"
" Well, we still can tell them now, can't we?"
" You really want to tell them, James? I thought it was a secret, you know! Just us four!"
" Shut up Peter, they already know that I'm a werewolf, so why shouldn't they know the other thing too?" told Remus, looking at Peter who grumbled angrily.
" Ok girls, you ready?"
"Silly question Sirius, of course we're ready!" answered Lily who was getting a little bit annoyed of this whole situation.
" Ok then. In fifth year we decided to become animagi, so we could accompany Remus, while he was a werewolf. We couldn't be with him in our human form and so we're staying with him as animals now!"
There was a short silence, Katie was the first to find her voice again: " And why didn't you tell us that? Did you think we would tell Dumbeldore?"
" No of course not, darling, " Sirius said to his girlfriend jokingly," we just waited for the right time to come!"
" You know that becoming an animagus is very dangerous? You could have asked us for help! I'm not bad at potions." Lily said, looking her boyfriend James in the eyes.
" Lily, we hated each other back there, remember?", said James.
" Oh yeah right!"
" So you're not angry? And you're not telling Dumbledore?" said Remus, he still felt very ill, and the last thing he needed right now was his girlfriend Melinda, or two of his other best friends angry with him.
" No, we're not angry, Re! And don't worry we won't tell Dumbledore! We're not Andrew, are we?"
" No but I am! I really like the idea of telling the headmaster about your little secret!", said a sneering voice out of the dark.
" Oh my , what are you doing here Fillers, huh?", Sirius asked, using the boys second name.
" What did you here, Fillers? Tell, now!", said a very angry looking James.
" Oh I heard enough! Believe me Potter, Dumbledore would not like what I would tell him.
Expelling his favourite student, another idea I support!"
" You wouldn't!"
" Would I? Let me think!..... Oh yes I would! But I won't be that mean! There's something you could give me to shut my mouth!"
" Yeah, something like a punch into your ugly face, how do you like this?" James answered.
" I rather thought about .......... HER!!!!", Andrew shouted, his finger pointing at Lily!
" What you want Lily?" asked a very surprised Remus.
" Yes, wouldn't that be nice Lily, just the two of us? No annoying Potter around you? I always liked you and I really do think that you need a break of him!"
" Never! You here me, never, say something like that again, ok! Never touch her, speak to her or just even think about her ever again, is that clear!!!!" James was screaming by now and stood protective in front of Lily.
She shoved him away:" What would I have to do?"
" Oh nothing much! Just the usual boyfriend-girlfriend thingy! You know, holding hands, making goo goo eyes at each other, a little kiss here and there, and first of all: No Potter!!!"
" And you promise not to tell Dumbledore?"
" Yes, I promise!"
" You know I could never make goo goo eyes at you, and when I just think about kissing you I feel a big urge to puke, but may I have a week to think about it?"
" But of course, darling!" Andrew gave her a kiss on the cheek winked triumphantly at James and the others and went back to the castle.
The six friends stared at Lily for a few minutes and so she asked: " What?"
" What? What is all you can say after that? How can you even think about dating Fillers???? There's no way I'm letting you do that, is that clear?" Sirius stated.
" Same here Lils, he's just so eewwwwwwhhh!!!" said Katie with a look of disgust on her pretty face.
" Lily, listen! You really don't need to do that! That all is just because I'm a werewolf, and I really don't want you being with that fool and breaking up with Prongs here! It's better to get expelled than to get killed by Jamie for destroying his relationship with you!"
" Don't do anything stupid Lily, he's freaking me out, I don't have a good feeling about Andrew, and Kat thinks so too!" said Melinda.
"Stop that, right here, right now! Don't be silly Remus nothing of all this is your fault! And Mel, Kat he's not that bad, and Sirius and James, if you hadn't noticed yet: I can think for myself, and right now I'm thinking: There's no way I'm letting any of you getting expelled if there's anything I can do about it!"
" What are saying Lily? Do you realize that you'll dump me for that fool of Slytherin. I can't believe you! I thought you loved me!"
" Ahhm, I think we might be going now, see you in our dorm Lil!" announced Katie, waving for the others to follow her. Peter didn't move at all, and so Sirius dragged him.
" What has loving you to do with saving you from getting expelled!? I'm just doing that because I love you, James!"
" I don't like the way you're showing that!
Look Lily, I don't want to fight with you! Let's just find another way to keep Fillers' mouth closed, huh? What do you think about that?"
" I think that there won't be another thing to keep his mouth shut! You know how stubborn he is, and he hates you! He just wants to get at you!"
" Well, he did a good job at that point! Lil, I just can't bear seeing you with him!"
" We'll just have to deal with it, maybe he gets bored after a little while! Let's go back inside James, I'm freezing!"
James nodded, he put his arms around Lily and they went back into the castle both deep in thoughts, not very happy ones though!
