Chapter 2
James was standing in the train station and was searching for someone to tell him were platform 9 ¾ Was. He then spotted a man standing by a large train. James walked up to him and said, "Can you tell me where I can find platform 9 3/4?" The man looked at him puzzled, "hmm are you sure you've got the number right?" "Yes I'm sure." The man looked at him as if he were mad. "Now are ya sure now? I mean you could have the number wrong or," but James cut him off, "YES! Y-E- S YES! I have the right number now please tell me where to find this platform!!" "Well son the thing is that there is no such platform." "What? What do you mean?" "I mean there is no platform 9 ¾!" the man walked off in furry. "Ah don't worry! I know where it is! Come on I'll show you." James looked behind him and saw a boy about his age with shoulder length black hair. "Oh thanks! By the way I'm James Potter!, " He stuck out his hand, hoping that the boy would shake it. " Well I'm Sirius Black! Master Prankster at your service!" James's eyes widened, "Oh me too! I love playing pranks!" "Well maybe we should stick together then. I could use some extra help at Hogwarts."
James and Sirius got on the train and saw that almost all the compartments were taken. They found an empty spot way on the back of the train. "So wanna check out my new book? I got it from a prank shop in diagon alley." James nodded as Sirius opened the book but then he stopped and closed it again. "You know what? We should start our own prank gang or something! We can have nicknames and stuff!" James grinned, "That's a great idea! Um lets think of our nicknames first! What should be mine?" Sirus thought, "uh well what things do you like?" James scratched his head and then said, "well I've always liked Stags." "Brilliant! You can be Prongs!" James smiled in pride, "Prongs! Yeah perfect! Now how about you?" "Well since your name has to do with your favorite animal I think I'll do the same. My favorite animals are dogs!" James though and said, "What about Snuffles?" "Naw. It doesn't really fit me. "uh what about hmm uh Padfoot?" Sirus smiled in glee. "yeah that's it! Wow where did you come up with that?" James pointed to the seat he was sitting on and on it was labeled Padfoot. "Oh well. Okay I'm Padfoot and your Prongs! Great!"
" Now let's think of our gang name! How about the pranksters?" "Uh maybe The Marauding Pranksters!" "Hey that's a good one Sirius! But let's make it a little different. The Marauders." "Yeah The Marauders! I love the way that sounds. Marauders, Marauders, Marauders Marauders!! And our motto is I solemnly swear that I'm up to no good! Here." Sirus took out his prankster handbook and held it to James. "It's time to take the pranksters oath!put you right hand on the book okay now repeat after me okay? I James Potter solemnly swear that I'm up to no good." "I James Potter Solemnly swear that I'm up to no good." "And also say I James Potter am a lousy git and Sirius Black is much smarted and wiser and," James gave him a You'd-better-cut it-or-I'll -hurt-you look. "I was just kidding Prongs! Honestly!" The compartment door slid open and a large lady walked in. "Would any of you sweetie's like something off the trolley?" Sirius and James jumped off their seats and bought a pound of candy. "Wow! I wonder what this is..Wow a Chocolate frog! They look tasty..Ah hey get back here!" Sirius ran out of the compartment and chased his frog.
A couple hours later, James was woken up by the opening of the compartment door. "Sirius? Is that you? Ah I can't see anything can you help me find me glasses?" James heard rustling and felt his glasses slip into his hand, "thanks a lot." James put them on and looked up. He wasn't looking at Sirius but he WAS looking at a skinny boy with brownish blonde hair and he had shaggy robes. His face was covered in scratches. "Uh hi...Um do I know you from somewhere?" Remus blushed and said, "oh um all the compartments were full." James smiled, "that's okay! Uh are you okay? You look like you went through a pricker bush." Remus grew even redder. "You know you look like a prankster," James said looking closer at him. "This is my chance!," Remus thought. "This guy is obviously a prankster. If I say I'm one maybe we can be friends. But I can't let out my secret so I have to stay low." Sirius walked in, " I couldn't find it." Sirius looked over and saw Remus, "uh who are you?" Remus thought quickly and said, "um I'm Remus Lupin! I'm a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a pprankster." Sirius studied him for a minute and after seconds of thinking he said, "Well Remus! It's time to Take the oath! First lets introduce ourselves James!" James stud up and cleared his throat, "I am Prongs! My real name is James Potter." Sirius also stud up and said, "I'm Padfoot! My real name is Sirius Black! And we are the Marauders!" Remus looked at them in confusion, "Where did you think of those nicknames?" "Oh you know..around." Sirius held the book up to Remus and said, "put your right hand on the book and Repeat after me. I Remus Lupin solemnly swear that I'm up to no good."
