Not much reviews came in… but maybe because everyone thinks I'm dead… but fear not… I will keep writing… I'm on break and I will use this to my advantage.. ok ok on with the story
Oh and uh… originally.. I'm guessing James is supposed to be a seeker, and Sirius a beater… but yeah. In MY story… who else could be a better team than the mischievous trio themselves, eh? haha ok ok.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
By the time dinner came round, Lily, Carly, and Penny had found two secret passageways that were shortcuts to the other side of the castle. Each of them took this into their memory just in case they had to use it in the future if they were late for class or if they were running away from the Marauders, or the Slytherins or something like that. They trotted happily towards the Great Hall where they saw a tired but happy-looking Jade sitting there waiting for them.
"Hey Jade, so how was tryouts?" asked Lily as the three sat next to Jade.
"Pretty good, I guess… I think I did well." said Jade with a smile.
"It'd be so cool if you made the team…. then we'd have someone to cheer for." piped up Carly.
"Well, if anything, you can cheer for James, Sirius, and Remus over there." said Jade pointing to the three boys along with Peter who had just sat down on their long table.
"Potter?? Please… " Lily huffed.
"Oh I don't think you'll be saying that after you've seen him play." mentioned Jade.
"Oh I won't have to do that.. he'll do it for me. With that big head of his, who knows what he can do." said Lily with a grumpy look on her face. Obviously she didn't' like it when people praised James Potter, but she wondered how good he actually is.
Meanwhile on the other side of the table…
"Gee, James… I still can't believe that move you pulled on Wood today…" said Remus.
"Yeah, how the heck did you do that anyway?" said Sirius before he stuffed his face with chicken.
"Umm… I told you.. lucky shot." said James. In his mind however, he knew it wasn't lucky. He had been practicing that move at his house all summer and couldn't wait to try it on a real keeper.
His friends seemed to disbelieve his statement. "Sure, James." was all they could say.
"James, when you pulled that move.. even I stopped announcing.. I was rendered speechless man." said Peter. "I didn't' know what to say about that one."
James began to feel a little uncomfortable. "Come on guys, it's only one move… that's not what matters in a game like that. Besides, anybody can do it. I could teach you if you want." They all agreed and James promised to teach them what he knows, and vice versa.
"Excuse me, but we could hear what you are talking about.. and the subject on James Potter is not a very good one I might add." said Lily. She overheard their conversation and couldn't stand James being praised any longer.
James just smiled. "Well, if it isn't my favorite enemy Evans. Long time no talk, eh?"
"Yes, and it has been some of the most peaceful and relaxing times of my life." replied Lily.
"Oh no.. not you two again." said Jade while she slapped herself on the forehead.
"What's it to you, Chapstick?" said Sirius.
"WHAT'D YOU CALL ME?!?!"
Sirius then realized what he said. "Oh! Uh…. nothing! I said… nice shoe, is it thick?"
Jade scowled at Sirius. "You will pay for that, Black."
"Bring it on." said Sirius with a smile.
While James, Lily, Sirius, and Jade were bickering at each other, the remaining four sat down together. Remus was the first to speak.
"Yes, it has been a while since we have all hung out together."
"Well considering it is YOUR guys' fault for pulling that horrible prank on us." said Carly with a huff.
Peter chuckled, but then stopped immediately when Penny shot him a look to kill.
"Come on, girls… can't you take a joke?" said Peter.
"Of course we can. We were just seeing if you four had the guts to actually talk to us again." said Penny.
"You're only girls." said Remus with a smile. This caused Carly to smile a little too. She had missed Remus' smile.
"So… you're only boys." Carly said back.
Remus just laughed. Peter then spoke up. "So, when do you think those four are going to stop bickering and admit their feelings for each other."
Penny laughed. "Not for a long while, I'm expecting. Especially those two." she said while pointing at James and Lily. "They're the most stubborn of us bunch."
They all laughed as they continued watching in amusement the two boys and two girls bicker about anything and everything.

"Stupid Filch. I can't believe we have to do all of this without magic."
Sirius was groaning while the others scowled with him as well. Yes, once again, the Marauders found themselves in detention. Apparently in potions class, Sirius "accidentally" tripped causing Snape's and Malfoy's cauldron to spill all over their robes, and both of them ended up going to the hospital wing because they were swelling up so fast they looked as if they were going to explode.
"I think Dumbledore's punishment on Malfoy last year needs to be amended." said James.
"Yeah… I can't believe it. Now that Malfoy had to stay one grade down… we have him to deal with now in class instead of just the other two buttcheeks." retorted Sirius.
Remus chuckled. "Of course, no one can measure up to the Marauders."
"You got that right, Remmy old buddy." said Peter while scrubbing the trophies.
"By the way, Remus…" said James. "I think we may have found a way to help you with your…. condition after all."
"What do you mean, James?"
"Well, werewolves only hurt humans."
"That's what it says in all the books." chimed in Sirius.
"So that means animals wouldn't be harmed at all."
"That's also what the book says."
"Shut up Sirius. Anyway, we were thinking that maybe if we could turn into Animagi, then we could join you in your wolfie state."
Remus was speechless. He would have never thought anyone, not even his best friends, would do such a thing. "It… it might b-b-e dangerous though, guys. I don't want you risking your own necks for me. Not to mention the fact that if you even pull this off, you would be illegal unregistered Animagi."
Sirius smiled. "We know that, you goofbrain. But come on!! Think of all the adventures if this works!! We could roam the Forbidden Forest!"
"Well, if you're all up for this…" said Remus.
James and Sirius nodded wildly and looked at Peter. At first he looked a little shy and fearful. Then he noticed Remus' smile, and knew that it would be for a good cause.
"I'm in too, guys. Marauders gotta stick together."
All four of them smiled at each other and then continued their detention duties.
