Water Lilies
Disclaimer: Well, I made it this far. Why would you sue me now? After all it's the last chapter... Anyway, all disclaimers apply.
A/N: LAST CHAPTER!! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! (Eleven for eleven chapters) This is, before I decide to make a sequel. Which most likely, I will.
Chapter eleven in which I end it at my favorite number.

It was midday when they reached Hogwarts. Students were playing out on Hogwarts ground.
"What's our plan?" asked Sirius.
"Just tell them we were playing outside and found Lily. She was abandoned at a house not far in the forest. Therefore we went, got her bags and took her to the castle. Got it?" They nodded.
The Marauders and Lily walked to the castle and found Professor McGonagall. ("She's softer on her house.")
"Boys, what did you do?" scrutinized McGonagall.
"Well," said Remus, "we were down on the grounds, and suddenly this girl comes up to us. She asked us where we were and we told her Hogwarts. She gasped and told us her story." They stepped aside and showed her Lily.
"Hello Professor McGonagall, I'm Lily Evans." The name had the right affect on McGonagall. "My grandparents weren't too happy with the news and they didn't tell my mother that. So they took me to a small summer house in a forest. Then they left me. I was lucky they didn't have the heart to take away the supplies there."
"I see," said McGonagall, still recovering. "Well, let's take you to Professor Dumbledore." The young Deputy Headmistress was still shaky from the encounter.
After a long talk with Dumbledore, they agreed to sort Lily that night. This was, of course in one hour.
"We have to have you meet, Lini, Bella, and Peter!" exclaimed Sirius loudly. They headed to Gryffindor Tower.
When they walked in, only three people were seen. The very three they wanted to see. Lini was pacing and muttering, Bella was very scared of Lini and upset at the missing three people and Peter was fidgeting. At the sound of them coming in, they looked up. Lini immediately stopped pacing.
"Sirius Curly Black, James Moe Potter, and Remus Larry Lupin where have you been. I have been worried about you all day after I finally got Peter to tell me!" Peter squeaked.
"What," yelled Sirius back, "Peter, why'd you tell her?" Peter squeaked again.
Lini, however, immediately softened, "it might have been something about the threats and blackmail that got him." Then she yelled again, "And you will not be teasing him, Sirius, or you'll be facing me!"
"Err," asked Remus Larry, "would you like to hear the story?" Lini nodded so he told her.
Lily came out from behind the boys. Lini shook her hand. "It's so nice to meet you Lily. I'm sorry I got a little mad at the boys."
Lily was immediately taken. "It's ok," she soothed, "I'll tell you the whole story. Willows and boys never mix." Lini grinned.
"Come on," said Lini. The three girls ran up to two of their dormitories.
"Lily," moaned Sirius loudly, "You're going to get us killed."
"Tomorrow Black!"

That night at dinner, Lily had two best friends. She pulled on the hat and instantly, it said "GRYFFINDOR!" And it was the right choice.
