James and Lily
Chapter Three: Dung Bombs, Hexes, and Slytherins
James yawned and woke up to find himself in a very unfamiliar place. Then he remembered. He was in Hogwarts! He took a quick look at his clock and noticed that it was still six. That left an hour before everyone would start to wake up. He quickly woke up Remus and Sirius.
Sirius still seemed a bit sleepy. "Huh, where's my mommy?" Remus snorted. He was already getting dressed. Sirius was finally pulled out of his bed.
"Ok, so our main goal is to be the school's biggest trouble maker. Sirius, do you have the 'Detention Slip Collectors Booklet' and the Dung Bombs?" Sirius yawned and answered, "Check." "Remus, do you have my invisibility cloak and 'The Standard book of Hexes, Year one'?" "Check."
"Ok, listen up. We'll first be heading off to the Girls Dormitories. Remember to haul at least five dung bombs in each room, ok? Then we'll paint the room with 'Classy's all Sugar Sticky Blue Paint. Then you do the end, Remus. You're the one who's read through most of the Standard Book of Hexes. Color the girl's hair in lets see. Green. We'll then turn there clothing into black robes. Guys, remember to do this with the invisibility cloak!" James cautioned, and paced around the room.
"I'll then go investigate where the Slytherin Common Room is, and find out the password. We'll go in and change most of their clothing pink and paint their common room with red and gold. Sticky Paint, ok? Got it, Sirius?" Sirius nodded and they all took their wands.
"Come on, guys, under this cloak!" Hissed James in his invisibility cloak. They carefully and slowly went into the girls' dormitories. "Remus, hex 'em! Sirius, you paint the walls. Dung Bombs are last, guys! We don't want them to wake up from the smell."
They all got work quickly. "Girale Colaur Greenintation!" hissed Remus, and soon every girl's hair was colored green. They didn't realize this, of course, they were sleeping.
Sirius pointed his wand at the paint buckets. "Wallan Painten!" The paint zoomed out of the bucket and soon the wall was colored in sticky blue paint. "Ooh. awesome! Blue walls! I just love 'em, don't you?" said Sirius gloated.
Now it was James turn. He raised his wand and muttered, "Girale Robben Blackum!" The girls now had green hair and were wearing raven black robes. Sirius tossed the in the Dung Bombs, and quickly went running back to their dorms.
"I swear, I think I cracked a rib! My throat is aching like mad!" The trio was laughing hysterically. In fact, they were laughing so hard that they woke up Mundungus and Peter.
"Gosh, can't you guys let us sleep peacefully for at least a day?" snapped Mundungus grimly. He still looked sleepy. "Y-You guys! It's still 6:45! I should be sleeping for another 15 minutes! I need my beauty sleep, you know." Peter joked and yawned.
"Come on, guys. Let's go to the common room and study our schedules." Said James, and pulled Remus and Sirius to the common room.
"Aaah. I can't believe we have Herbology first thing with the Slytherins. Dumbledore always makes the Gryffindors have classes with evil Slytherins. But let's look at the bright side. We transfiguration after lunch, and right after transfiguration we have Quidditch practice. Not that it would be much fun. The first year's Quidditch practices are so boring. I wish first years could play the house team." Sighed James. Sirius whacked him in the back and said, "Well, let's just look forward to our pranks and the-" he was cut off by shrill screams from the girls dorms.
Sirius snorted and said, "Looks like they woke up. Come on, let's go see them scream like girls. Wait, they are girls. I forgot.
A great wham followed Sirius's comment and Lily Evans and Arabella Figg was standing at the top of stairs with their hands on their hips. It was a rather funny sight. They both had green fizzy hair and wore black robes. "JAMES POTTER-SIRIUS BLACK-REMUS LUPIN! YOU - ARE - DEAD!!!" Lily roared, spraying them with spit.
James grinned. "What do you mean? And by the way, nice hair do." He commented, observing both their hair. They hadn't really seen their hair with their faces. "James Potter, you know very well what happened in our dorms. Now- SPILL!" Lily seemed to like yelling at them.
Arthur Weasley came up and asked Arabella, "Geez, what happened to your hair and robes?" Arabella turned bright red and said ruefully, "There was a *slight* explosion in our dorm." Just them, Molly Minstrel, a fourth year who was dating Arthur Weasley, came storming out and roared, "JAMES! REMUS! SIRIUS! YOU RETURN MY HAIR AND PJS AND OUR DORMS BACK TO NORMAL!" Arthur Weasley seemed somewhat astonished.
"M-Molly! What happened?" Arthur was constantly trying to calm Molly. Maria cam running out sobbing, and Sibyll looked astonished. "I've peered into my crystal ball. I knew this was going to happen! I must say, I saw in my crystal ball the culprit; wasn't it you, Arthur Weasley?" James, Sirius and Remus snorted and watched Molly slap Sibyll. ("How dare you think that Arthur is the one who did it?")
Just then, Professor McGongall stormed in and looked astonished at the black robbed, green haired Gryffindor girls. "Why, who did this?" She eyed the three giggling boys, James Sirius and Remus. "Potter, Black, Lupin, I want to see you in my office NOW." Lily snorted as Arabella and Maria giggled. Lily whispered and wave to them, "Have fun with your lecture!"
"I have NEVER, I must repeat NEVER in all my life have I seen such a ridiculous prank! Detention tomorrow at eight boys, meet Kenneth at the entrance hall! And 30 points from Gryffindor! And take a detention slip! Now OUT! I don't want to see anymore of your pranks!" she hollered at them, as they each gladly took a detention slip.
"Wow, I've never seen McGongall at the pits before. And lets celebrate for having the first detention slip and the first prank of the year!" The trio ran off, laughing and chattering.
*** Meanwhile at the Girl's Dorms***
"Gosh, this stuff does not get off of my hair! And the room smells of dung, and the walls are painted a ridiculous blue!" Shrieked Brittany. She leaned on the wall and smoothed down her hair. "I wonder how they pulled this off. Really, the are so-" she froze and tried to stand up. "OMIGOSH! I WILL PERSONNALY KILL THOSE THREE! Why, they've painted the wall with Classy's all Sugar Sticky Blue Paint! DON'T TOUCH THE WALL!!!" she screamed, and tried to get off, but her back was completely stuck to the wall. "Give me hand here, will you?" she asked weakly to Maria and Lily. They both yanked and pulled her arms but she just wouldn't come off.
"Out of the way." Said Clary Chang as she rolled up her sleeves and pulled out her wand. She cried, "Instickio Classy!" Arabella's back tore off from the wall and she toppled over. "My brother's used Classy's Paint plenty of times on me. That's why I had to learn the spell to unstuck my self. It's the only spell that can be used for Classy's." Clary replied.
Lily asked Clary, "Do you reckon you can make my hair turn back to the usual color?" Clary sighed. "I forgot they used that curse as well on everyone. I clear forgot to take it of me." She raised her wand to no one especially, and cried, "Reversio Girale Hair Colaur!" There hairs were suddenly turned back to the normal color. "Thanks. Can you turn back out robes as well?" Lily asked shyly. Clary heaved an even heavier sigh and raised her wand. "Reversio Girale Robes!" She faced Lily. "The Girale curses. It's used to change colors of something. Except when you're conjuring it, you add something to the name of the thing you want to change colors. When reversing, you always start with 'Reversio Girale'. Standard Book of Hexes year 1, chapter 11. Foolish, really. I only borrowed that book from my brother."
"Oh, James Potter, Sirius Black, and Remus Lupin. I will certainly get you back." Lily flared. She then realized that she would despise those three boys, especially James.
***Herbology! The dreaded lesson for Gryffindors and Slytherins***
Professor Timberlake smiled at them all and made a tiny speech. "Hello, I am Professor Timberlake. This must be your first lesson ever. I must remind you that I want everyone to get along. Today, we will be working on these Extensy. It is a little early for you guys, but I want to get a head start on our work. We never know what could happen, eh?" She smiled and winked at them. "Now, take out some parchment and a quill. Then open up page 165 in 'One Thousand Magical Herbs and Fungi'. I know it's your potions book, but this is an herb, so I say we should look in there. Now, I will select partners. With your partners, you will write a short report on Extensy, and it must include graphs, pictures, and of course, passages. Ok, I'll pair you guys up."
James ended up with the slime ball Snape, and Sirius was teamed up with the blondy, Malfoy. Remus was paired with stupid Crabbe, who had a brain the size of a pea. Lily was stuck to ugly Jok, who had a long, pointy nose. Arabella was with an even worse guy who was a boy names Pier. Maria was with a vulture-eyed girl Marlou. Marlou seemed to especially hate muggles. "Filthy mud bloods, they shouldn't be here any how, and don't you dare touch me. I am not working with you. I don't need a mud blood helping me." Leaving Maria sobbing. Brittany was with Avery Alkaline. She seemed to rather like him. They were in a deep conversation.
By the end of the class, James, Snape, Sirius, Malfoy, Remus, and Crabbe landed in the hospital wing. James had magnificently sprouted an extra arm. Remus was bleeding and was out cold. (Crabbe has a lot of muscles.) Crabbe's face had sprouted a weird kind of fungus. Snape grew a very, very long tongue that was approximately 5 ft long. Malfoy had an extra leg and had some sort of bitten mark. Sirius's nose was growing and growing.
The girls didn't end up in the hospital wing, but there were some, ahem, just problems on looks. Arabella had punk styled blue hair and Pier ended up with a more powerful and advanced hex on him. His robes and hair were bright pink with sprays of red hearts. Lily had crazy shocking blue hair and green and silver robes. ("Yuck! Slytherin colors!") Jok ended up with hair that flashed a different color every second. Her robes were now torn in half and her knee was bleeding. Maria hexed Marlou's robes to be muggle clothing. ("Ew! Mud Blood clothing!") Maria had robes that flashed in a different color every second.
Professor Timberlake, by the end of the lesson, was swearing she would never pair up Gryffindors with Slytherins. They were not meant to be together. She knew how much Dumbledore tried, they would never get together. She was exhausted, and she had only taught one lesson so far.
***Lunch Time***
Sirius ran to the table yelled hoarsely, "Lunch!" He grabbed a piece of sandwich and wolfed it down. "Gosh, Herbology was a run over." Remus smirked. Madame Pomphrey (the mother of the Madame Pomphrey in Harry's Time) had revived Remus quickly. James laughed. "Yeah, remember Snape's 5 feet long tongue? Even if I had an extra arm, the tongue was really good. A simple engorgement charm. I wonder if anyone would create a prank toffee that if you eat one, your tongue keeps on growing until someone stops it." (A/N Hey, does that sound familiar?) Sirius snorted. "Yeah, the look on his face! He looked like he wanted to cry for his mommy. Malfoys extra leg was just as amusing! He looked like he could go run in a three legged race." "Yup. And Sirius, you looked like Pinocchio." I rather enjoyed the sight." Said Remus with a grin on his face. "Oh, shut up."
Professor Timberlake tried to fix the girls looks as much as possible, but unfortunately, she wasn't able to fix everything. Lily still had shocking blue hair. It had a 12 hour timer on it, and Maria's robes had a 24 hour timer. Lily giggled and said to them, "Bella, good thing you could get your hair back to normal. You looked totally ridiculous in that punk styled blue hair." Arabella had asked them to call her Bella yesterday. "Yeah, and you Slytherin clothes looked so ridiculous as well." She shot back. Bella turned around to Maria. "Your robes are fit for a clown, Maria. I can't wait to see you back in your normal robes." Maria turned bright red. "Bella, you were just lucky. You didn't have any timers on them. Lucky Bella." Bella smiled goofily. "Well, at least we can have revenge on them now!" They huddled and began plotting a prank on the Slytherins.
