Marauder Mayhem
Disclaimer: Yeah, I obviously don't own any HP stuff. You all know that cuz you're not stupid, and even if ya are, it's okay! However, I do own Raven McKinnon and a few other made up characters along the way.
A/N: THE BEST IDEA I GOT FOR THE NEXT CHAPTER WAS TO HAVE STUFF WITH THE OTHER CHARACTERS. I COMPLETELY AGREE. I'VE BEEN FOCUSING JUST ON SIRIUS AND RAVEN LATELY CUZ EVERYONE'S BEEN BUGGING ME TO GET THEM TOGETHER, SO HOPEFULLY THIS CHAPTER WON'T TURN OUT TO BE CENTERED ONLY AROUND RAVEN AND SIRIUS. BY THE WAY, SOMEHOW MY DATES GOT SCREWED UP, SO I'M WORKING ON FIXING THEM. PAY NO ATTENTION TO DATES, ANYWAY. THEY'RE JUST SO I KNOW WHERE I'M AT.
*****JUST SO YOU KNOW, FOR SOME REASON, FANFICTION.NET WON'T LET ME LOG IN AT HOME. I'M AT SVSU RIGHT NOW, SO SORRY I HAVEN'T GOTTEN THE CHAPTER OUT SOONER. I CAN ONLY UPDATE WHEN I HAVE TIME INBETWEEN CLASSES RIGHT NOW. ANYONE ELSE HAVING TROUBLE LOGGING IN? IM ABOUT READY TO BEAT THE SHIT OUTTA MY COMPUTER, LOL. IT WON'T EVEN GO TO THE LOG IN SCREEN. OH WELL...I'LL TRY TO KEEP UPDATING REGULARLY FROM SCHOOL.
This chapter's Random Thought: It's actually song lyrics from "Second Guessing" by Jonny Lang cuz I went to see him in concert last night!!!!
"Writing down your deepest emotions, with your pen in hand - Your piece of paper flew out the window, you watched it try to land - You felt so bad as it flew out of sight - A part of your heart alone in the night - But all of a sudden you didn't mind it - When you pictured the lonely stranger that would finally find it - Everything that you're looking for, you'll know when it's real - You'll know when you've found it, by the way it makes you feel."
Chapter 25 - October 21st
Lily, James, Remus, Raven, Sirius, and Peter sat outside on the grass in the courtyard after watching the Ravenclaw team beat Hufflepuff. Lily and James had a blanket draped over their legs while Lily was trying to keep James focused on their Head Girl and Boy duties. He kept whispering something into her ear, and she'd giggle and then hit him playfully.
Raven and Sirius looked at each other and rolled their eyes. Sirius leaned in to whisper something in Raven's ear. "Please shoot me if I ever get like that with you."
"It's completely a waste if you ask me. You know he's not saying anything that dirty, or Lily would slap him up."
Sirius laughed and leaned over to whisper what Raven had said to Remus. Remus let out a laugh and nodded his head.
Eve came by with another Slytherin girl and gave them a disgusted look. "Get a room, why don't you," she said, looking distastefully at James and Lily.
Raven and Sirius both burst out laughing bogusly. Raven laughed as loud as she could and pretended she was crying, while Sirius did the same and put his hand over his heart like he was finding it hard to breathe because what Eve said was so hilarious. Lily, James, Remus, and Peter then started laughing at Raven and Sirius' display of sarcastic laughter.
"Oh Eve," said Sirius, fanning his face and continuing to laugh fakely, "you're a hoot!" Then he abruptly stopped laughing and gave her a menacing look. "Fuck off." He winked at her friend, who was staring at him with her mouth open.
Eve scoffed and retreated with her Slytherin friend, still gawking at Sirius.
Raven stared after them and then turned back to Sirius. "Wow, Padfoot, I think you coulda had her, or have you already?"
"Nah, she flirted with me constantly for the whole week I was going out with Eve. I generally stayed away from Slytherins just cuz they're whores, but I wanted to piss Regulus off."
"He like her or something?" asked James.
"He did when I asked her out, yeah."
"I didn't know that. I thought you had just lowered your standards that year," teased Remus.
"It amazes me that you're all talking about this like it's nothing. You don't ask out a girl just to nail her and then dump her the next day!" said Lily, fiercely.
"Well, Padfoot and I were like that...that is, until you finally said yes to me, and he met Raven."
"James, I don't wanna even think about all the girls you've been with," replied Lily.
"But I'm not like that anymore, I swear! I would never do that to you, Lil." He put his finger on her chin and rose her head up to look at him. "Ever, okay?"
Lily rolled her eyes and smiled. James leaned in and kissed her.
"Oh, there they go again," said Sirius, searching in his bag and pulling out a paper plate with the number two on it. He held it up in the air as Remus and Peter found their paper plates. Lately, Lily and James had been growing more and more affectionate, so Sirius distributed paper plates to his friends for them to rate their public displays of affection. Remus held up a four, Peter a five, and Raven rolled her eyes. "Oh come on, Wormtail, a five? That was weak! There wasn't even any tongue!"
(A/N: ANYONE NOT GET THAT? HAVE YOU EVER BEEN TO A WEDDING AND WHEN YOU TAP YOUR GLASSES THE BRIDE AND GROOM ARE SUPPOSED TO KISS? AT MY COUSIN'S WEDDING A FEW MONTHS AGO, SOMEONE BROUGHT PAPER PLATES WITH THE NUMBERS 1-10 ON THEM AND WE WERE SUPPOSED TO RATE THEIR KISSES, 1 BEING THE DRYEST, AND 10 BEING THE MOST PASSIONATE.)
Peter shrugged and Raven gave him a reassuring look.
"Guys, that's getting really annoying," said Lily.
"My point exactly!" replied Sirius.
"Sirius, why are you complaining? It's not like you don't have someone to snog right next to you," James put in.
Raven scoffed as Sirius turned to grin at her. "You know, James, you're right," he said. He quickly grabbed Remus's face and put his thumbs over Remus's lips, bringing their heads together so it looked like they were kissing.
James, Raven, Lily, and Peter started cracking up as everyone in the courtyard around them froze, staring at Sirius Black dip Remus Lupin into a kiss.
"Get the fuck offa me!" roared Remus, pushing Sirius hard onto Raven. "Everyone's gonna think I'm gay!"
Sirius's back landed across Raven's legs and he looked up at her, smiling. "Pardon me, is this seat taken?"
"I cannot believe you just snogged him right in front of me! I thought I meant something to you!" joked Raven, pretending to cry.
"I got caught up in the moment, I'm sorry!"
"Whoa, who is that?" asked Peter, his eyes wide as he looked past them at the other end of the courtyard.
The other five turned and saw what Peter saw. An overly large, hairy guy talking to Dumbledore.
"Wow. Must be part giant," said Remus.
"Lily, James, go find out what's going on. You're Head Boy and Girl," suggested Raven.
Lily and James looked at each other and then made their way over. "Excuse me, Headmaster?" said Lily.
Dumbledore turned and beamed down at her. "Lily, James, I want you to meet Rubeus Hagrid, I've asked him to be our new Groundskeeper."
Lily and James stared up at the huge man as he stuck out a hand and gave them an amiable smile. Despite his size, each of them smiled back and took turns shaking his hand. "Nice to meet you, Mr. Hagrid," said James.
"Just Hagrid," he said as he continued to smile.
"James and Lily are Head Boy and Girl here, Hagrid. They'll help you in any way they can, I'm sure. I must be getting back to my office. Good day."
"So, how do you like Hogwarts so far Mr...I mean, Hagrid?" asked Lily.
"Oh, I been here before. Went ter school here...sorta," replied Hagrid, uneasily.
(A/N: YEAH, I SUCK AT HAGRID, THAT'S WHY I WASN'T GONNA PUT HIM IN, SO BEAR WITH ME.)
Sirius, Remus, Peter, and Raven had run up to meet them as soon as Dumbledore had gone. "Hi," they all said in unison.
"Well hello there. My name's Hagrid. Gonna be the new Groundskeeper," he introduced himself.
"Wow, too bad he's not a teacher," said Sirius as they went back in the castle. "I bet he'd let us do all kinds of dangerous stuff." The rest of them rolled their eyes at Sirius. "...What?"
"Hey guys, how about we take a little trip into Hogsmeade?" suggested James, winking at Lily.
"James! We're Head Boy and Girl, we can't get caught doing stuff like that!" she protested.
"You make a good point, we ARE Head Boy and Girl, so we deserve a little time off, and there's no way they'll catch us."
"Of course they'll catch us, there are people everywhere!"
"Evans, Evans, Evans, there actually are some things about this school that you don't know about," said James as he led her along a corridor, the rest of the gang following behind them. James led them all up to the third floor corridor and to a statue of a one-eyed witch with a hump. James pulled out his wand and tapped the statue saying, "Dissendium!" The statue sprang to life, revealing a hole where the witch's hump had been.
Lily and Raven gasped. "James!" hissed Lily. "Did you do this?"
"Nah, it was here, we just found it," reassured Sirius.
One by one they all climbed in. They each lit their wands when they reached the bottom and started walking along the dirt path. The path twisted and turned for a long time, and then finally ascended up into the cellar of Honeyduke's in Hogsmeade.
"It'll be a job getting us all out not being seen without the cloak," said Remus, soberly.
"Wait," said Sirius, flinging his hand out to bring them all to a hault. Sirius crawled on his hands and knees past the counter and stood up casually, pretending to look at some sugar quills. "Excuse me, sir?" he said to the shopkeeper behind the counter. "How much are these..." he purposefully spilled an entire barrel of Bertie Bott's over the counter and onto the floor. "Oh...I'm sorry." The shopkeeper sighed and went to the backroom to get his wand. Sirius signaled frantically for them to come out of the basement while he was gone for a few seconds. They all quickly crawled up the steps and out the front door, Sirius right behind them.
"Sirius, that was terrible! Now he has to pick all those up himself!" scolded Lily.
"He has a wand, doesn't he?" Sirius defended himself and gave her a smile.
"C'mon, let's go get some Butterbeer!" suggested James.
Raven stopped dead. "Oh no! No, no, no, no! Sirius can't handle his Butterbeer, and I am not putting up with that again!"
They all laughed. "Hey, let's go into the fruit market!" exclaimed Sirius excitedly.
"What? Why?" asked Raven, giving Lily a confused look.
"Oh yeah! I got some new ideas this time!" agreed James.
They four boys entered and all gathered around Remus' watch. Remus held it out for them all to see and when the second hand was on the twelve he said, "Aaaaand...go!"
Sirius sprinted off in one direction, James sprinted off in another, and Peter stared after both of them for a second and made his mind up to follow James. Lily and Raven watched in confusion and then gave Remus a questioning look.
Remus shrugged his shoulders. "Everytime we come in here James and Sirius have this contest to see who gets thrown out first. Sirius has the record at eight seconds."
Lily and Raven looked at each other and rolled their eyes. "I'll bet he does," said Raven.
Suddenly they heard a shout from the direction Sirius had run. They saw three men coming around the corner of an aisle, one was Sirius, the two others were on either side of him, carrying him by the arms. Sirius had a huge grin plastered on his face.
The store manager made their number four. He ran alongside them, yelling and pointing his finger at Sirius. "This the last time you come in here! Melons not to be used for dat! Get and stay out!"
The two men hurled Sirius into the air. He tucked his head under as he hit the ground and did a somersault and stood up in front of Remus and the girls. The three of them stared at him with their mouths open. "...Well?????" He asked Remus.
"Oh! Uh..." Remus looked down at his watch. "Twelve seconds."
"Dammit!" yelled Sirius. "All that for nothin!"
Remus sent up blue sparks with his wand and from the direction James had gone, they heard a groan. James and Peter trudged through their aisle and back to their friends at the door. "Wha'd you do?" asked James, turning to Sirius.
Sirius grinned deviously. "The manager was training some new girl in and she was stacking some melons in a pile, so I grabbed two of them and held them up like this," he put his hands against his chest, "and asked her how to tell if they were ripe."
They all laughed. "It really doesn't take that much to get thrown out of here. Did you break the record?" asked James.
"Nah, twelve seconds," he shrugged.
"Tough shit," said James, patting Sirius on the back.
