Life with the Marauders-2003 style!
Chapter 7!
It was 25 minutes later and the students had arrived at Hogwarts.
"Where do we go?" Sirius hissed as they got off the train.
"FIRST YEARS! FIRST YEARS OVER HERE! C'MON NOW DON' BE SHY!"
The 5 turned around and to their surprise, they say a giant. Or something that resembled a giant.
"Well there's your answer!" Remus answered.
"Yeah…I sorta figured that out."
Jenn gave a gasp of surprise.
"Oh my god! You actually figured something out?"
"Shaddap!" Sirius grumbled. By now, they had reached the giant-like man.
"C'mon now kids, this way!" The giant man said. "We are goin' 'cross the lake on the boats."
Remus gave a gasp of surprise. "I hate boats." He muttered.
Lily laughed.
"It's not funny!"
"Oh I think it is!" Lily chuckled.
"Oh I agree." Put in James.
Jenn and Sirius nodded looking amused at this little fear of Remus'.
"Shut up! All of you." Remus growled.
By now they had reached the lake.
"OKAY! NOW NO MORE THAN 4 TO A BOAT!"
"Well there is five of us." Lily said.
"Thanks captain obvious." Sirius grumbled.
"Okay I'll go to another boat." Volunteered Jenn.
"I'll come with you." Said James. (You were expecting Sirius or Lily eh? *Winks *)
"K."
So James and Jenna (sounds like Jack and Jill-k ill shut up now) climbed into another boat, soon joined by a girl with straight dirty blond hair that went to right half an inch up above her shoulders and brown eyes.
"Hey, I'm Anna." She smiled.
"Hey, I'm Jenna but if you ever call me that I'll murder you."
"And she will! I have a scar on my neck to prove it." James put in. "I'm James by the way, no stupid nicknames please."
Anna laughed. "So what should I call you er-"
"Jenn will be fine. And if you ever write it down, it's j-e-n-n, not j-e-n."
"Okay, got that." Anna smiled. Then said,
"Are you two related?"
"Yup we're cousins." James smiled.
"Oh I thought you had some kind of relation because your guyses eyes are identical down to the last eyelash."
"Yeah, everybody says that." Jenn laughed.
"Well it's true."
Suddenly there was a splash from another boat.
"Uh oh." James groaned.
The 3 turned around and a fuming Remus who tackled Sirius into the water greeted them. Lily was laughing her butt off; (as usual) a boy next to her was laughing along with them. Jenn and Anna started laughing too. Soon enough James joined in.
They had finally gotten to Hogwarts. Jenn invited Anna to come along with them and she gladly accepted.
"The girls I sat with on the express were all jerks." She explained, rolling her eyes. "Definite Slytherins. I am looking into Gryffindor."
"Same with us." Jenn indicated her and James.
"JAMESIE-POO! I MISSED YOU SO MUCH!"
Anna looked alarmed. "Who was that?" she asked.
Jenn laughed. "Oh, it's just Sirius." She said dismissively.
Anna was surprised. "Oh! Is James gay?"
This was too much for Jenn. She burst out laughing.
"Hahahahahahahhahahhahahahahahahahahaha!"
After she calmed down she said, "nope. Sirius is just insane."
"Oh I see."
Currently Sirius was hugging James and kissing him on the cheeks.
"Oh I missed you so much!"
"Dude! Chill it's only been 20 minutes!" James looked alarmed.
"You mean you didn't miss me?"
James sighed.
"Oh Remus, Lily and Sirius, this is Anna, she pointed to the brown-eyed girl.
"Hey."
- "Hi, I'm Lily"
"Yo the names Remus."
"Sirius."
"Ok now let's go get sorted!" James said brightly.
"OK, we are so lucky Mcgonagall didn't notice us not listening." Anna laughed as they walked in.
The sight that greeted them was exceptional. The ceiling didn't exist. ("It's just an enchantment." A nerdy looking boy said.)
"I shall call your name, and you all shall sit on the stool. I will place the sorting hat upon your head and you shall be sorted into your house." Prof. McGonagall said.
"ABBOT HENESIA"
"RAVENCLAW!"
"BLACK SIRIUS"
Sirius bounced to the stool and jammed the hat on his head, the whole hall looking at him weirdly.
"GRYFFINDOR!"
"EVANS LILY"
"GRYFFINDOR!"
"LUPIN REMUS"
"GRYFFINDOR!"
"SNAPE SEVERUS"
"SLYTHERIN!"
"POTTER JAMES"
"GRYFFINDOR!"
"POTTER JENNA"
"IT'S JENN!"
"GRYFFINDOR!"
While James and Jenn were being sorted, there were animated whispers among the older people. As you don't know, James' father was minister of magic and also known as Jenn's uncle.
"WILLIAMS ANNA"
"GRYFFINDOR!"
Anna went to join her friends at the Gryffindor table.
The sorting went on.
And on.
And on.
And on.
And on.
"When's it gonna end?" Anna whined. "I'm really hungry!"
"I think it's ending." James looked at his watch and Dumbledore stood up.
"Welcome, to yet another year at Hogwarts. For some of you, this is your NEWT year and will be graduating in June. For others, you have just started, wondering what will await you in your next 7 years. Just ask one of the 6th or 7th years, they will all say the same thing. 'These are the best years of our lives and we never want to leave.' You will meet some of your best friends here. You will meet some of your worst enemies here. Hogwarts is a place full of joys and yet also full of tears of all kinds. I, on behalf of the staff, would like to say that we all hope you have fun in your next years at Hogwarts. Weather it is your first or last. I have only a few words to say as I can see that Miss Williams and Mr. Black are glaring at me from the Gryffindor table." He acknowledged them. "Please note that the forbidden forest is exactly that. Forbidden unless on detention with a suitable teacher. And I have nothing else to say but 'TUCK IN.'" He clapped twice and food appeared on the table.
"FINALLY!" Anna started loading her plate to rival Sirius'.
Lily looked at her in awe. "Whoa, you eat more than Jenn and I!"
"And that's certainly saying something." James grinned as he chewed a piece of chicken. "Yummy yummy!"
The crowd of 6 kept loading themselves with food.
"Hey Anna! How'd you feel to an ice cream eating contest?" asked Sirius.
Anna smiled wickedly. "I'd be delighted."
And they started.
Sirius and Anna were going strong on the first 10 scoops and then Sirius started to slop off.
"What's this?" A cheerful voice behind them asked. It was Prof. Dumbledore.
"Ice-cream eating contest sir." Jenn said and went back to watching the two.
Sirius was on his 18th and was turning blue, while Anna was on her 19th scoop and still going strongly. On his 20th scoop, Sirius fainted. Anna finished her 21st scoop quickly and felt Sirius' forehead.
"Geez I haven't been that cold since I first started having ice cream eating contests when I was two!" she exclaimed.
James dropped his jaw. "You had ice cream eating contests when you were TWO?"
"Yeah. I'm immune to brain freezes."
"Well we better take Sirius to the hospital wing." Said Lily.
'Where is it though?" Remus asked.
"No idea, let's go ask Prof. Dumbledore." Anna suggested.
"Good idea."
So they went to see Dumbledore who led them to the Hospital Wing. Anna and Remus put Sirius onto a bed while Dumbledore called Madam Pomfrey.
Madame Pomfrey tutted. "Sick already?" she asked.
"Ice-cream eating contest Madame." Lily said politely with James nodding beside her.
"Against Anna." Remus pointed to her.
"Oh dear." Said Madame Pomfrey. "I suppose you are alright?" she asked Anna.
"Oh yeah, I'm just fine!" Anna explained that she had been doing this since she was two.
"Well then you 5 better go and let Sirius have some rest. I will escort him to Gryffindor tower tomorrow morning." Madame Pomfrey smiled and ushered the 5 out after giving them directions to Gryffindor tower.
"I hope he's okay." Anna bit her lip. "He's the 10th person I've done that to."
Lily looked at her in amazement. "Whoa! The tenth?"
"Yup."
"Let's hurry up." Remus said, "I'm tired."
"After reaching Gryffindor tower, the boys and girls bid goodnight to each other and went their separate ways.
A/N-Whew! *sighs with relief * That was the most tiring chapter I've ever written. The longest too! In the shortest amount of time! Where is the logic to this? OK I lied. I said I'd see you in 2004 but it is still 2003. Be happy people. 2 chapters in two days. That's a record for me! Now I will really see you all in !2!0!0!4!
