Chapter 2
The next morning Remus was the first one to wake up, it was just before dawn. James and Sirius were still sleeping and since Remus was too excited to go back to sleep so he got up and went to change out of the robes he had slept in and take a shower. He found the bathroom and took a shower while everyone else in the house slept soundly. Once he had finished his half hour long shower he returned to the dormitory to find Sirius laying on his bed with his eyes closed talking to James.
"Morning James, morning Sirius." Remus said to them bright and chipper from a good nights rest and a nice long shower.
Sirius and James just glared at him sleepily. "shut up Remy I want my beauty rest" Sirius growled from his bed.
James and Remus laughed "Sirius your too ugly beauty rest wouldn't help you." James joked.
Sirius lunged at James and tackled him. "I am not the friendliest Wizard in the morning James!!!!" Sirius was practically yelling
James backed down, "Okay, okay don't have a cow Sirius." James said trying to calm him down.
Remus had backed away from both of them. 'And I thought I was a monster." Remus thought. "Hey you guys we had better head down to breakfast before you kill each other. I am so excited I wonder what we are going to start." He was hit on the head by something soft. "HEY!" he yelled accusingly at James and Sirius who were trying to look innocent.
"Who me?" James asked with an evil grin on his face
"Not I" Sirius said
Remus just rolled his eyes and dragged his friends and house mates down into the common room. They saw Samantha surrounded by a bunch of other first years.
"I thought you lot might have forgotten your way down to the Great Hall so I decided to wait until all of the first years were here." She smiled at them "Well this looks like everyone lets head down." She said brightly and led them out the portrait hole.
"She is another person who deserves to die for being too happy in the morning." Sirius mumbled to James who just laughed.
"Remus, remind me not to talk to Sirius in the morning he is grouchy." James said laughing and Remus just smiled and rolled his eyes at them both.
"Sure James but you weren't exactly a ray of sunshine either this morning." Remus said to him with a grin. James took a swipe at him and Remus ducked laughing.
They continued to follow Samantha down the many stair cases and secret passages that led down to the Great Hall. The boys paid more attention to their surroundings this time because they knew that next time Samantha wouldn't be waiting to show them the way down. When they finally arrived down at the Great Hall many people who already knew the way down were eating. Samantha led them over to the table and they all sat down and began to load their plates with food.
"New first year schedules" said a boy on Sirius's left.
"Fanks." Sirius said through a mouthful of eggs and toast. He took a schedule for himself then passed them down the line to James and Remus.
"Sirius mate slow down there is plenty of food." James said with an amused look on his face.
Sirius only grinned at James. "I just want to eat before the post comes. Mum and dad will have learned that I am in Gryffindor from one of my lovely cousins." He said to them angrily. "Hmm I wonder where Andromeda is I thought I would have seen her by now." He said more to himself than to the others.
"Who is Andromeda?" James asked.
"Huh? Oh, she is my oldest and favourite cousin." Sirius told him "She is in Ravenclaw and I was hoping to see her today."
James nodded "Oh okay."
Just then a tall girl with long black hair much resembling Sirius ran over and hugged him from behind. "Oh Siri I am so happy for you!" she said squeezing him tightly "I am so proud Uncle Alphard is going to be so proud!" she looked ready to cry with joy.
James grinned "Siri?"
Sirius glared "Don't you dare call me that Jamie." Sirius said with an evil glint in his eye.
James and Remus laughed. "We won't" they both chorused
Sirius rolled his eyes and turned back to Andromeda. "I was wondering when I would get to see you." He said grinning
She smiled "Well I just wanted to say hello I really have to return to my table. I am Head Girl this year. Bye Sirius, bye James, bye Remus." She went back over to her table and started talking to a few of her friends.
"Well that is Andromeda." Sirius said looking fondly at his cousin at her table.
"She seemed very nice." Remus said.
Sirius nodded. "Yeah she is great." He looked up "Uh oh post is here."
James nodded and smiled, he was expecting a letter from his parents. They were supposed to be sending his new owl with his letter and he couldn't wait. Remus was also looking up for an owl and smiled when a small snowy owl landed in front of him.
"Hello Pearl," Remus said greeting the owl. He gave her some toast and she flew off up to the owlery.
James was also smiling. His parents had sent his new Tawny owl with a big fat envelope from his parents. The owl was an early birthday present from his father and his name was Speckles. James grinned as the owl nipped his affectionately and flew off following Pearl.
Sirius on the other hand was looking slightly nervous when a very handsome Grey owl landed in front of him. The owl was holding a red envelope in her beak and she dropped it as soon as she reached Sirius. She also headed towards the owlery to join the other owls.
"Oh great she sent me a howler." Sirius said sarcastically.
"You better open it mate, you know just get it over with." James said with a small smile and Remus nodded looking worried.
Sirius peeled back the edges of the letter which were beginning to smoke and at once the hall was filled with a ladies booming voice magically sounding louder than it really was.
"SIRIUS ORION BLACK, HOW COULD YOU BECOME A GRYFFINDOR? YOU ARE TO GO STRAIGHT TO THE HEADMASTER AND ASKED TO BE CHANGED INTO SLYTHERIN IMMEDIATELY."
"No I am not" Sirius muttered to himself but the woman continued her rant.
"SECONDLY I FORBID YOU TO EVEN TALK TO THOSE FILTHY MUDBLOODS AND BLOOD TRAITORS SUCH AS THE POTTERS!!! IF I HEAR FROM BELLATRIX OR LUCIUS MALFOY THAT YOU HAVE BEEN WITH THAT BOY I WILL DO MY WORST. YOU HAD BETTER STAY AT HOGWARTS THESE HOLIDAYS OR ELSE."
"I was going to stay anyway mum." Sirius muttered to himself again
"AND FINALLY YOU ARE NOT TO ASSICIATE WITH ANDROMEDA OR WRITE LETTERS TO YOUR UNCLE ALPHARD. IF YOU DO THAT YOU ARE NO SON OF MINE DO YOU HEAR ME? YOU WILL BE NO SON OF MINE." Mrs. Black finished her ranting and the letter ate itself into pieces.
The entire hall had turned to look at Sirius and they were all sitting in a stunned silence except for the Slytherin table who had erupted into fits of insane laughter. Sirius looked at James and Remus.
"Well boys that was my dear old mum." That was his explanation for the howler and he began eating again ignoring the stares he was getting from the entire school.
After ten minutes Remus looked over at James and Sirius. "Hey we have classes in half an hour we had better go collect our stuff and find the class room; we don't want to be late the first day."
The other two boys sighed and followed Remus back up to the common room to get their bags, wands, ink, quills, and any other things they needed for school. After, they headed back down into the common room.
"So what is the first class Remus?" James asked
"Uh..oh here it is, we have Transfiguration followed by Herbology; afterwards we have lunch and then double Defense Against the Dark Arts to end the day." Remus finished grinning.
They nodded and set out to find the Transfiguration room. They had arrived just minutes before the bell rang and they were forced to take the seats at the every front. Next to Lily Evans, the pretty girl James was in love with, and her plump blonde friend with the kind eyes.
"H..hi" James managed to stammer out as he sat down next to Lily.
Lily smiled at him. "Hi I am Lily Evans and this is my friend Julia Dooks."
The boys nodded at Lily and Julia and took their seats. "Just your luck huh mate?" Sirius asked James teasingly.
James only grinned and got a dreamy face. Just then Professor McGonagall came to her desk and told them to take out some quills and parchment to copy the class rules down.
"This will be one of the only lessons that you will really be copying things down the rest of our lessons with be practical." She looked around the class and smiled. "As I said before I am the Head of Gryffindor house and I really hope that you will all do well. I normally enjoy teaching my students don't make me change my mind." For some reason her gaze seemed to linger a little longer on Sirius and James. "Now finish copying your rules down the bell will be ringing in about an hour which will give us time for the beginning of a lesson."
They all finished copying their notes at about the same time and Professor McGonagall smiled at them. "Would you help me pass these out?" she asked gesturing towards Lily and Julia.
"Of course Professor." Julia said and her and Lily got up and began to pass out needles.
Once Sirius and James got theirs they pretended to have a sword fight which earned them a glare from Professor McGonagall. "Don't make me take house points on the first day of school Potter, Black." She said tersely
They stopped fighting and listened to what she had to say. She gave them a spell to turn their needles into straws and they spent the rest of their lesson practising. When the lesson was over only Sirius and James had managed to make straws. Remus had managed to make his needle longer and you could drink through it if you didn't mind getting pricked. Professor McGonagall awarded both James and Sirius five points for Gryffindor. When the bell sounded she pointed the first year class towards the green houses for their Herbology lesson.
The class headed out to the field and was greeted by the Hufflepuffs who also seemed to have Herbology at the same time.
"Looks like we have classes with the Hufflepuffs" Julia whispered to Lily from behind them.
They reached the main green house and were greeted by a young woman. "I am Professor Sprout and this is only my second year at Hogwarts so I am also quite new. For those of you who don't know I am the head of Hufflepuff house. Please take out your books and open to page three and begin reading up to page ten. I will go and get some pots and we can start to plant Insta Flowers." She went and returned with tons of tiny little pots and many bags of seeds just as the class was finished reading the pages. "Right now, who can tell me what an Insta Flower is?" she asked the class a few people's hands shot into the air. "Uh you." She said pointing at Lily.
"An Insta Flower is a flower that can be put in soil and watered and instantly starts to bloom. They are perfect for people who are not very good gardeners." Lily said answering correctly.
"CORRECT!!!" Professor Sprout said looking very pleased that someone had answered her question. "Ten points to Gryffindor." She then passed out a pot to each student and two seed packets for every three people. "Fill each pot three quarters of the way full the place the seed inside. After you have done that one person from each group get a pitcher of water. Please work quietly and try not to drop and of the seeds on the floor because they will instantly bloom like this young lady said. Well good luck I will cheque on you in an hour or so." She told them and walked around making sure everyone did as they were supposed to.
"I don't really like this class too much." James said, "I think I much prefer Transfiguration."
"How can you decide already? This is only the second class of the day." Remus said to him.
"I dunno I just think that I prefer Transfiguration." He replied
Remus shrugged and went back to working on his Insta Flowers which were now growing out of control.
"Don't add to much water. Take these clippers and trim it down." Professor Sprout said an hour and a half after they had begun to plant.
Remus took the clippers sheepishly from Sprout and began to trim down his over grown flower. Sirius and James sniggered and Remus glared at them when he finished.
After another hour of planting Insta Flowers it was time for the lesson to end so the boys and the rest of the class made their way up to the castle for lunch.
~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!
When they got up to the castle they were very excited from their first day and they hadn't even had their last class yet! The boys ate noisily and talked about their first two lessons. When they had finished eating they headed off to look for the Defense Against the Dark Arts class room.
They were early and managed to get a desk to themselves. When the rest of the class filed in they found out that they had this class with the Ravenclaws. They smiled happy that this class wasn't with the Slytherins. A few minutes later a short skinny man walked into the room, he had a pleasant look on his face and turned to look at the class.
"Welcome to Defense Against the Dark Arts I am Professor Trake. I know all of your other teachers have made you copy notes for class rules. Well I am just going to tell you the rules in my class room and you may copy them down if you like but it isn't necessary." No body except Lily, Julia, and the Ravenclaws got out a quill and some parchment for the rules. As Professor Trake told them the rules Remus, James, and Sirius pretended to look interested in what he had to say while they flipped through their books looking at the pictures. Remus flipped to the werewolf section accidentally and nearly yelped when he saw the picture. Sirius noticed and looked over at his book.
"Oh you scared of werewolves Remus? Nothing to be scared of I feel bad for them really." Sirius said
Remus nodded, "Yeah, Sirius yeah." He was scared 'He might think they are alright when he sees a picture but what would he think if he knew I was one? He wouldn't say they were good then. No. he would say they are hideous beasts because then he would see the transformations, he would see what they look like and what they act like.' He looked back over at Sirius and James they were laughing.
"Hey is something wrong Remus?" James asked him.
"Huh.what? Oh. No I am fine." He said shrugging. The nodded and went back to joking around. 'They must never find out' he thought 'never'
All too soon their double period of Defense Against the Dark Arts came to an end. While the filed out of the class room they heard Professor Trake yelling.
"Don't forget to read the first chapter I want a report by next week Wednesday!"
The class groaned as they walked out of the classroom. It was obvious that the Professor was a nice guy but a little over enthusiastic when it came to his job, and home work.
The Gryffindors headed up to the common room and deposited their stuff in their dormitories then came down into the common room for a little bit of a rest before dinner.
"So what did you lot think of your first lessons?" A third year boy asked them.
"They were alright. I really like Transfiguration." James told him.
The boy smiled "Yeah McGonagall is a good teacher I enjoy her class as well. If you want any help feel free to ask me I enjoy that class." The boy seemed helpful and they nodded.
"We will, er." Remus started
"Jessie" The boy supplied with a laugh, "My name is Jessie."
They nodded "If we need help we will call you Jessie." Sirius said grinning "We will probably be asking for help in the next few weeks."
Jessie laughed "Well good luck to you until then." And he walked off to join his friends.
The boys looked at each other. "That was nice of him." James said and the others nodded.
After a few hours they headed down to the Great Hall for dinner and helped themselves to what they wanted to eat. Once they had finished they headed back up to Gryffindor Tower.
"Do either of you want to play Wizards Chess?" Sirius asked
"Sure I will" Remus replied "Do you have a set?"
Sirius nodded and went up to their dorm and collected his chess set. "Here it is" he said placing it on a table.
"Alright do you want to be black or white?" Remus asked him.
"White because it moves first." Sirius said grinning making Remus and James roll their eyes.
They sat down and had a few games of Wizards Chess together each time Remus won with no help from James who continued to try to make him move into bad situations. When they finished their fifth game they decided it was time to go to bed and headed up to their dorm. Remus scooped up his cat which he had found wandering around the bathroom in the boy's dormitory.
They got to their room and changed into night clothes and climbed into bed. Remus left his light on for a little so that he could read his new book while James and Sirius talked about Quidditch. They shut the lights off in their dorm around eleven o' clock and finally fell asleep.
James was thinking about the letter he was going to write his mum about being friends with Sirius and the letter he would write to his dad about his first day of lessons; when he finally drifted off to sleep.
Sirius was thinking about how happy he was to be in Gryffindor and finally have two good friends who didn't worry about being pure blood. He smiled to himself and drifted off into a peaceful sleep.
Remus finished the chapter he was on in his book and turned out his light. He fell into a peaceful sleep knowing that he had two good new friends who would never find out what he was.

"Morning James, morning Sirius." Remus said to them bright and chipper from a good nights rest and a nice long shower.
Sirius and James just glared at him sleepily. "shut up Remy I want my beauty rest" Sirius growled from his bed.
James and Remus laughed "Sirius your too ugly beauty rest wouldn't help you." James joked.
Sirius lunged at James and tackled him. "I am not the friendliest Wizard in the morning James!!!!" Sirius was practically yelling
James backed down, "Okay, okay don't have a cow Sirius." James said trying to calm him down.
Remus had backed away from both of them. 'And I thought I was a monster." Remus thought. "Hey you guys we had better head down to breakfast before you kill each other.

"Who me?" James asked with an evil grin on his face
"Not I" Sirius said
Remus just rolled his eyes and dragged his friends and house mates down into the common room. They saw Samantha surrounded by a bunch of other first years.
"I thought you lot might have forgotten your way down to the Great Hall so I decided to wait until all of the first years were here." She smiled at them "Well this looks like everyone lets head down." She said brightly and led them out the portrait hole.
"She is another person who deserves to die for being too happy in the morning." Sirius mumbled to James who just laughed.
"Remus, remind me not to talk to Sirius in the morning he is grouchy." James said laughing and Remus just smiled and rolled his eyes at them both.
"Sure James but you weren't exactly a ray of sunshine either this morning." Remus said to him with a grin. James took a swipe at him and Remus ducked laughing.
They continued to follow Samantha down the many stair cases and secret passages that led down to the Great Hall. The boys paid more attention to their surroundings this time because they knew that next time Samantha wouldn't be waiting to show them the way down.

"Hello Pearl," Remus said greeting the owl. He gave her some toast and she flew off up to the owlery.
James was also smiling. His parents had sent his new Tawny owl with a big fat envelope from his parents. The owl was an early birthday present from his father and his name was Speckles. James grinned as the owl nipped his affectionately and flew off following Pearl.
Sirius on the other hand was looking slightly nervous when a very handsome Grey owl landed in front of him. The owl was holding a red envelope in her beak and she dropped it as soon as she reached Sirius. She also headed towards the owlery to join the other owls.
"Oh great she sent me a howler." Sirius said sarcastically.
"You better open it mate, you know just get it over with." James said with a small smile and Remus nodded looking worried.
Sirius peeled back the edges of the letter which were beginning to smoke and at once the hall was filled with a ladies booming voice magically sounding louder than it really was.
"SIRIUS ORION BLACK, HOW COULD YOU BECOME A GRYFFINDOR? YOU ARE TO GO STRAIGHT TO THE HEADMASTER AND ASKED TO BE CHANGED INTO SLYTHERIN IMMEDIATELY."
"No I am not" Sirius muttered to himself but the woman continued her rant.
"SECONDLY I FORBID YOU TO EVEN TALK TO THOSE FILTHY MUDBLOODS AND BLOOD TRAITORS SUCH AS THE POTTERS!!! IF I HEAR FROM BELLATRIX OR LUCIUS MALFOY THAT YOU HAVE BEEN WITH THAT BOY I WILL DO MY WORST. YOU HAD BETTER STAY AT HOGWARTS THESE HOLIDAYS OR ELSE."
"I was going to stay anyway mum." Sirius muttered to himself again
"AND FINALLY YOU ARE NOT TO ASSICIATE WITH ANDROMEDA OR WRITE LETTERS TO YOUR UNCLE ALPHARD. IF YOU DO THAT YOU ARE NO SON OF MINE DO YOU HEAR ME? YOU WILL BE NO SON OF MINE." Mrs. Black finished her ranting and the letter ate itself into pieces.

As Professor Trake told them the rules Remus, James, and Sirius pretended to look interested in what he had to say while they flipped through their books looking at the pictures. Remus flipped to the werewolf section accidentally and nearly yelped when he saw the picture. Sirius noticed and looked over at his book.
"Oh you scared of werewolves Remus? Nothing to be scared of I feel bad for them really." Sirius said

"White because it moves first." Sirius said grinning making Remus and James roll their eyes.
They sat down and had a few games of Wizards Chess together each time Remus won with no help from James who continued to try to make him move into bad situations. When they finished their fifth game they decided it was time to go to bed and headed up to their dorm. Remus scooped up his cat which he had found wandering around the bathroom in the boy's dormitory.
They got to their room and changed into night clothes and climbed into bed. Remus left his light on for a little so that he could read his new book while James and Sirius talked about Quidditch. They shut the lights off in their dorm around eleven o' clock and finally fell asleep.
James was thinking about the letter he was going to write his mum about being friends with Sirius and the letter he would write to his dad about his first day of lessons; when he finally drifted off to sleep.
Sirius was thinking about how happy he was to be in Gryffindor and finally have two good friends who didn't worry about being pure blood. He smiled to himself and drifted off into a peaceful sleep.
Remus finished the chapter he was on in his book and turned out his light. He fell into a peaceful sleep knowing that he had two good new friends who would never find out what he was.
