Sorry about the whole paragraph thingy. I hope I did better this time! Thanks for all the reviews! No on with the rest of the story!!! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~



"Come on Prongs, you too Peter. Lets move" Sirius whispered. The other boy, Felix, in their room was asleep. Peter climbed out of bed, he was a short, chubby boy who found his way into the Maurders ring. James was already at the door with his invisibly cloak, the other two boys hurried over to James.

"Padfoot you got the map." James asked Sirius. He said nothing but held up the map, James noticed several of the dots moving along the corridors they'd have to be careful. The three boys slipped under the cloak and hurried out of their tower and out of Gryffindor. The halls were unusually clear, they quickly walked to the main hall and slipped out side. Once outside the boys ran to the Whomping willow.

James heard a low growl and stopped the other two. Making motions for the map, he grabbed it from Sirius. His eyes nearly bulged from his head when he saw that Remus was outside the shack but he didn't notice the other dot.

"Change" he whispered to the others. Peter turned into a rat but he was still shaking with fear, Sirius changed into a big black dog. With Sirius next to him, the cloak slid off James and before he could change, Remus jumped out of the woods and came running at James. Knowing he had no time to change now he shut his eyes and waited for Remus to bite him. After a few seconds he heard a growl. He opened his eyes and saw Sirius in front of him protecting him and just beyond him was a pure white wolf pinning Remus down. James quickly saw his chance and changes into a stag.

Remus quieted now that he didn't smell humans. James walked over to him and let Remus sniff him. Remus' eyes became sad and scared as though he was about to lose his best friend but James just shook his head. The white wolf let Remus up, turned to James and nodded. James looked into the wolf's eyes and noticed they were laughing at him. The wolf shook it self out and ran towards Hogwarts. James turned and nodded to the others and led them into the wood for another night of exploring.

Lilly changed back and laughed as she remembered James face. True something bad could have happened but it didn't and his face was priceless. Lilly walked into Hogwarts and quietly went to the tower. Luckily she wasn't caught. She made it to the portrait, told the fat lady the password and went inside. No one was in the common room so she went upstairs to her room. All the other girls were asleep as Lilly climbed into bed. The moment her head hit the pillow she was asleep.

~*~*~

The next morning was Saturday so no one had classes. Lilly headed into breakfast with her friends and instantly saw James and Sirius. She excused her self from her friends who were sitting down and walked over to Sirius and James. Lilly plopped down in front of the two tired looking boys.

"Hey boys fun night last night?" Lilly asked innocently.

James' jaw dropped slightly and Sirius stuttered "W.. w.. what do you mean?"

Lilly went on as if she didn't hear him. "Such a close call right James, I mean something really bad could have happened. But you were saved, I'm correct I know. But you don't and want to know how I know right?" Lilly asked holding back a laugh at the boys' faces.

"How'd you know. Who told." James hissed.

"Seems a pity that the one who saved you was the one you hate." Lilly continued, ignoring James.

James's jaw dropped as he realized what she was hinting. "How did you do it?"

"I'd love to stay an chat with the boy who owes me his life but I gotta eat breakfast. Ta ta!" Lilly laughed, got up and went to go join her friends.

Peter walked up to the two boys, sat down and said "Hey guys what up? You look like you two what just seen a ghost."

Sirius snapped out of it and said "You remember that wolf last night right? Well it seems that Lilly can transform."

James finally snapped out of it but he couldn't talk. "How.. what.. she.. can't! Huh!" he stuttered.

Peter looked over at Lilly, who was looking at them and laughing. Peter snickered "You know this is pretty funny the girl who can't stand you, and vice versa, saved your life last night. What are the odds!"

Peter laughed harder, Sirius started laughing which made Peter laugh harder and he fell out of his seat pulling Sirius down with him.

James shook his head angrily and stormed out of the great hall. But not before he shot Lilly a death glare which she returned with a sweet smile and wave.

~~~~~~

Lilly still smiling walked out of breakfast and outside. She walked down to the lake and laid down in the warm grass. She was almost asleep when she heard someone rustle near by. Lilly looked up and into Remus' worried face . "Hey Remus. You know what. You are really tall from here." Remus smiled and sat down next to her. "I heard you told James and Sirius what you could do. I'm so glad you were there."

Remus abruptly pulled Lilly into a hug. "Sirius wouldn't have been able to hold me off." He said quietly. Lilly pulled back and studied Remus. His eyes were brimming with tears and his face looked so scared.

She pulled him into a hug. "It's OK Remus. he forgave you and if I wasn't there Sirius would have held you off." Remus started crying softly onto her shoulder as she rocked him. Singing softly as she did when they were kids and his parents were splitting up.
