Alicorn: Hi! Here's the 5th chapter! It sounds sappy, but it's GOOD!
Calicat: I'm writing today, and I'm on a sugar high so I'm doing a prank!
Alicorn: Yeah, It's a lot like, well, you'll see;)
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
"Hey Mudblood, what are you doing. Oh, you're trying to get a pureblood to like you. Well I wouldn't go for that one, his head isn't able to fit through doors as it is, and you wouldn't be able to hold his hand." Snape, for the umpteenth time this week, was jeering at Lily and James.
Maeghan was sick of it. Plain sick, but then…she had an idea.
She called The Marauders, Lily, and her Demonic Cousin over for a meeting. Everyone was smiling evilly when she had told her friends the plan.

Maeghan got up, she silently woke up her cousin Ari, and then her best friend Lily.
"Is it time?" Ari's face was illuminated by the moon, a crescent moon.
"Of course! Come!" Maeghan hurried her two friends, and they all slipped under her Invisibility cloak.
The three girls slipped into the boy's dorm and knocked on the Marauders' door. The three boys also came out, in James' Invisibility cloak.
The six kids went into the Slytherin common room, and Maeghan said the password, she had sneaked into Snape's room in the summer break. That's how she knew it.
"Do you know the password?"
"Pureblood" (A: Wow, aren't the Slytherins originals?) (C: That was a while ago)
The portrait swung open to reveal an empty common room. Remus whispered, "WE'll prank the common room."
The girls went on into Lucius Malfoy, and Snape's room. Ari put an Invisibility Charm on herself and the other girls, and Maeghan pulled out two long vials, with a clear liquid. She gave one to Ari, and sent Lily to keep watch.
Maeghan carefully poured two drops of the clear liquid into Snape's drinking glass, Ari did the same to Lucius's.
Then Lily came in, and shook both of the boys until they were half-awake, and had to restrain from giggling when the two boys drank their 'water'. Then they went back to sleep.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Meanwhile the boys were pranking the common room. They put a charm on the couch to make it act like a giant whoopee cushion, and the logs in the fireplace would turn into grass snakes when someone lit a fire. The rug would turn into a quicksand pit, and the people who the quicksand sucked would be transported into a room with pictures of Snape singing the Barney song with all of the actions. Then the tape would then switch to a picture of Snape's butt from 4 different angles. The victim would be trapped for 5 minutes, and then the pit would let out an entrance near the front of the portrait hole.
Before leaving, the boys put on their Invisibility Cloak. Then the three girls put a charm on themselves so that they were able to float.
The six kids headed back to their dorms, and went to bed.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
"Maeghan, wake up." Ari was standing over her cousin, "It's breakfast."
Maeghan jumped out of bed (C: Literally) and ran out to the Great Hall, and she checked to see where her friends were, and ran into someone.
"Are you alright?" Maeghan found herself lying on top of Remus Lupin.
"I'm fine." Maeghan rolled and lay on her back.
Remus got up, and helped her up. They both blushed when they held hands.
Lily watched her friends, then glanced at a grinning Ari.
"I knew they needed a push." Ari grinned.
She had set it up so that Remus would wait in the Great Hall because Lily 'needed to tell him something'. Maeghan would then run into him. It had all been planned.
She had to look like she hadn't done anything, and was whispering to Lily. She was walking over, but then she tripped, and Sirius caught her, with his Quidditch reflexes. He looked really surprised. Ari was now in Sirius's arms, and he was holding her.
They stayed like that for a moment, shocked, then they both blushed and broke apart.
This time Lily noticed a grinning James as she followed him to the Great Hall.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
"You planned that didn't you." She asked as James sat at the table.
"Yes, and so did you, but you did it with Maeghan." James looked at Lily.
"Ari did Maeghan, you did Sirius, that means that one of the three left will do you or me." Lily thought.
Sirius and Ariella first entered. Sirius was carrying her books, and they were smiling and laughing. Ari's eyes, surprisingly, had changed into a new colour, luminous lavender.
Then Remus and Maeghan entered, they held hands for a bit, then broke apart when they had to sit.
Lily realized what a cute couple both of them made. Then she glanced at James. She wished that they could be a couple.
Her thoughts were broken off by screams. Everyone rushed to where they had heard it from…the Slytherin common room.
Surprisingly, no one could be found. But when horrified children started to pop up, Professor McGonagall deliberately sank into the ground. When she surfaced, five minutes later, there was a horrible look on her face of … fear.
"L-lo-look in there." She was horrified.
Dumbledore put a spell on the floor to make it transparent.
"I love you, you love me, we're a happy family…" (C: the rest of the song is censored)."
"Everyone to breakfast." Snape and Malfoy had just come out of their rooms and were headed to breakfast when they got into a trance.
"Hey, Snape, walk with us!" Maeghan called to her brother.
Remus was nervous. He liked Maeghan, and he was …well uncomfortable about Snape being here. All that was going to change … as soon as everyone got to breakfast.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Snape came over to his sister's table.
"Snape, who do you like?"
"I like Lucius, but the person who I really like is Lily Evans, I've made up a song for her." Snape was entranced.
"Sing it for us." Maeghan hissed.
"I love Lily, She'll love me, then we'll be a happy family. With a (C: I'm going to skip the rest of this, like the real Barney song)."
In the end everyone was laughing. Except James, who was seething in his seat. Lily saw this, and felt strangely comforted, even though Snape was now kneeling at her feet. (A: Wink;) (C: ?) There was still another surprise. Lucius had started singing his own version, except with Maeghan.
Remus's fists clenched. Maeghan put a hand on his knee and his fists uncurled.
The couple left the Great Hall, and they weren't seen again until much later. When they came back, they were laughing and holding each other's hands. Lucius saw this, and stopped singing.

Alicorn: Wow! What a long chapter! That's, like, the longest chapter we've written! That was Calicat's addition to our increasingly insane story. In case you haven't realized, this is in the 4th year. We've changed the rules a bit, in age ranges, I think, but everything should be OK. If you want us to add in the other years, we will.
Calicat: It wasn't that insane!
Alicorn: Right. AAANYWAYS, I'll be doing the next chapter IF we get some reviews.
Calicat: I REFUSE to put Peter Pettigrew into this story now. Absolutely NOT!
Alicorn: We need Pettigrew to keep the continuity. (Shudder) I HATE continuity (Sigh) How about as a transfer student?
Calicat: No.
Alicorn: How about as in another house?
Calicat: NO!
Alicorn: How about a transfer student in another house?
Calicat: I still hate him no matter what you do…and I'm not insane, Ms. lost-her-sanity-in-2000!
Alicorn: OK, I'll be doin' some fancy Quidditch stuff next, so REVIEW Gawd-demmit!
