"Lily! Wake up! WE'RE ALIVE!" Jen said shaking her sleeping friend.
"What-hey! I AM ALIVE!" She screamed.
"I was excpecting us to die durning the night!" Ara said waking pretend sweat of her forehead.
"No pranks done on us so far?" Lily asked.
"None at all." She confirmed.
"Ok, this is weird. Well anyway, lets start our pranks."
They nodded and quickly walked over to Katie's bed.
"Sweet revenge." Ara smiled. Jen and Ara heard exactly what happened when Lily came back. They were all disgusted and were going to get her good.
"How about whenver she lies her nose grows?"
"Or whenever she flirts her nose grows?" Ara suggested.
"Perfect!" Jen cackled.
"Bloody wonderfull." Lily did a quick swish-flick and muttered a spell under her breath, as not to wake Katie.
"I'm betting on five feet by noon." Jen laughed as they walked away into the boy's dorms.
"Now what shall we do to them?" Ara asked as she inspected the sleeping Marauders.
"How about a spontaniouse preformance in front of the great hall?" Lily suggested.
"What kind?"
"Many. Rock, strip, Barney song, seranade, hula, ect, ect." Lily said waving her hand.
"How about they seranade Snapey-poo?"
"That should be something!" Lily laughed as she preformed the more complex charm.
"Ok, I'm having them sing that L-O-V-E song. I heard Remus has quite a nice voice, I'll look forward to it." Lily teased as they walked out. They were pulling quite simple pranks, but pranks none the less.
"Lils, you idiot! You stole my shirt!" Ara poked Lily's arm.
"Damn, its not my fauly you left it at my house!"
" ' My Imaginary Friend Says You Have Serious Promblems'." Jen read the shirt outloud. "Sirius needs that."
"You're right! Ara, his birthday is comming soon!" Lily winked.
"You know as well that I do that Sirius' birthday is July 25, he circled it in a dark bloody red circles and wrote it all over the walls." Ara laughed shoving her friend slightly.
"Well, I have to take a shower, lets head back to our dorm." Jen interupted.
"BLOODY HELL!" Jen screamed from the shower. Her friends came rushing to the door and asked her if she was ok. She didnt answer, instead she opened the door. She was wrapped around with a towel, and her skin was...green?
"What happened?" Lily asked holding back her laughs.
"Marauders. They put dye in the showers." Jen said imedeatly.
"You're right. I wonder who's there next victim." Lily said in a menasing whisper.
"Lils, if you know a counter curse, dont tell me. I think I like my skin green." Ara said sarcasticly.
"Right." Lily muttered something under her breath, but it had no effect.
"Sorry, only they can reverse it." Lily frowned.
"Oh well. I'm sure I'll learn to love my green skin." Ara shrugged as she pulled some clothes on. Lily laughed and went into the bathroom to look for "clues". As she walked by the mirror, it randomly broke into thousands of little pieces.
"Woha!" Lily stepped backwards.
"Lil, you're not that ugly are you?" Jen teased as she fixed the mirror.
"I'm sure it was loose or something." Lily shrugged as she pulled out a hand mirror. She smiled and it also broke.
"Damn my good friends the Marauders." Lily threw the already broken mirror accross the room.
"Jen, you're the only one left." Ara whispered in the same tone that Lily had earlier.
"Mabye they've decided not to prank me this year!"
"Yeah, and my grandma is the Queen of Scotts." Lily replied sarcasticly.
"Tell her I said hi." Ara said seriously.
"Woha, you just pulled a Sirius." Jen joked.
"They're rubbing off on us!"
"Nah, we're rubbing off on them." Ara laughed.
Together, they walked down to the common room. On the way down the met up with the Marauders.
"YOU LITTLE-" Lily started as she charged onto the closest Maruader. That was (surprise surprise) James!
"How-dare-you-change-Ara-green-and-make-mirrors-break-when-I-walk-by?" Lily lectured with a playfull punch.
James was down on the ground and Lily was sitting on his stomache puching him.
"Happy Prank Day??" James asked hesitantly. Lily burst into laughter.
Once they had both stopped laughing, they stared at eachother. Lily was still in the akward possition.
"Sha la la la la la Don't be scared You've got the mood prepared Go on and kiss the girl Sha la la la la la Don't stop now Don't try to hide it how, you wanna Kiss the girl (woah-woah!)!" Sirius sang a line from the Little Mermaid. Ara quickly covered his mouth.
Lily rolled her eyes and stood up
"Do you really think I'm that ugly?" Lily pretended to cry.
"Not at all. If a million people sat a million typewriters for a million years, they would never be able to type enough words to describe how beautiful you are. And why is it I gotta climb a hundred mountains to get you, but all you gotta do is smile to get me? I think about you all the time. If you gave me a rose for every time i think of you, I'd be walking in roses forever."
"Awwwwww." Sirius was the first to one recover from the little recital.
"Did you think that off the top of your head?" Lily asked and James nodded.
"Good job pal." She said and patted him on the back as they headed down to breakfast. James sighed and reluctantly followed. Sirius, who was right beside him asked, "You meant it didn't you?" And James nodded.
As soon as the boys entered the Great Hall, the curse hit them. The girls made them perpousfully late for breakfast so that the whole school would see their preformance.
Like robots, the Marauders marched over to the Slytherin table. Sirius majicly conjured three guitars, a microphone, and four spanish hats. They each put on a hat and a guitar while Remus took the microphone.
"Oh Snivilus, how I love you, Oh, what should i do? Your rotten smile, You can smell your breath from a mile, It may smell like dead rats, but at least we have hats!" Remus sang in a very deep voice.
(All:) "Oh, la, la, la, We love you, la la la, your nose may be to big for your head, but thats ok, your hair may be greesy,"
"LIKE MAC AND CHEEEEEESY!" Sirius finished in a squeaky standing up and bowing. Then, again they started.
"L, is for the way you LOOK at me." Remus said getting unusally close to Snape. "O, is for the only ONE I see." Sirius sang stroking his cheek. "V, is for very very extraordinary." James sang shaking his butt and sitting on a dumbfounded Snape's lap. "E is even more than anyone that you adore and-" Peter sang in a surprisingly good voice, and along with everybody else, posed a few feet away from Snape.
(All:) "Love is all that I can give to you, Love is more than just a game for two, Two in love can make it, Take my heart and please don't break it, Love was made for me and you !" James sang the last line and inched up to Snape's face. Their lips wer about to touch when Snap let out a blood-curling scream. This knocked the Marauders off their trance, and letting out a yell as well, and running away to the saftey of their table. Those who hadn't alreayd burst into laughter started now. "DEVILS!" James roared as he approached his friends. He grabbed his laughing friends by the colar.
"Mr.Potter," Dumbledore chuckled, "would you please let go of the girls?"
James laughed hesitantly and let go of his friends. Silently, he sprinkled some dust into Jen's drink.
"Did you see Molly? She was covered in feathers!" Jen laughed, and took a sip of her drink. The results were instant. Her skin shrivilled up and her eyes started to bag. Her brown hair went straight and white. Her eyes faded out and her back slumped.
"HELLO GRANDMA JHONSTONE!" Sirius roared with laughter.
"I'll get you sonny!" Jen waved a cane in the air.
"WHAT DID YOU DO?" Ara bellowed.
"Calm down Ara dear!" Sirius backed away.
"I AM NOT ARA DEAR! I AM ARA! Now what did you do to my friend?" She said in a calmer tone.
"Hey its temporary,lasts an hour!"
"How about my skin?"
"Same." Ara smiled and nodded and sat next to Lily.
"How 'bout her?" Jen asked pointing to Lily.
"All day." James sniggered.
"You do know I'm not finished with you." Lily whispered menacingly.
"Oh I'm so scared!!" James rolled his eyes sarcasticly.
"Good."
And she placed herself on his lap and gave him a long kiss on the lips...
HAHAHAHAHHAHAH FOOLED YA!!! JUST KIDDING THAT LAST SENTENCE NEVER HAPPENED.
Lily laughed and walked away.
'She's so beautiful.' James sighed to himself. 'The way her beautiful hair gleams and falls past her shoulders. And the way she smiles, and the way she laughs, and that beautiful smile. And the way she's waving to me with just one finger in the air, God I love that wave.'
"PRONGS, EARTH TO PRONGS! SNAP OUT OF LA-LA-LILY-LAND!" James' dear friend yelled into his ear.
"Quiet down, Sonny!" Grandma Jen scolded.
"Sorry Grandma." He rolled his eyes.
"Padfoot, you didnt need to YELL that!" James hushed looking around franticly.
"So, Prongsie has a crush!" Ara chuckled and sat down next to him.
"DONT YOU DARE TELL ANYBODY!" James warned.
"Nah. Friends dont tell the world that their friend has a crush on our best friend." Ara patted his back reasuringly.
"HEY EVERYBODY, JAMES IS MAAAADLY IN LOVE WITH-" Ara yelled and looked at James' shocked face. "A COW!" Ara burst into laughter seeing James' face.
"Well Ara, that was just mean!" James said.
"Sorry, i couldnt help but make fun of your twisted love life."
"Nah, not that, you called Lilikins a cow!" James sounded hurt.
"Lilikins? Prongsie, LILS wont like that name." Jen said matter-o-factly. This looked odd coming from an old lady.
"WHY does everybody call me Prongise?" James put his head in his hands.
"Because..it sounds good!" Ara lied. "Lils will love that name."
"Really?" He asked hopefully.
"No." Jen smiled.
"Don't be so pessimistic!" Remus lectured.
"Hey, thats my line!" Jen threw a french frie at Remus.
"Manners, grandma!" Ara said nudging Old Lady Jen.
A disgruntled Lily, red with anger and frustration, marched up to her friends.
"Somebody shoot me!" Lily sighed.
"I'd be glad to." Sirius smiled.
"Shut it Siri. What's wrong Lils?" Remus asked.
"Gildory Farthart-"
"Who?" James interupted.
"Lockhart. Anyways. He goes up to me and says, 'My magical watch says you aren't wearing your panties. Oh wait, it's an hour early.' Eww. Dosen't he know not to mess with Lily and her Fufu?" She said shaking an image out of her head.
Everybody laughed except for James, who was both red with anger and with confusion.
"Who's Fufu?"
"My fist." She said happily.
"Ah. Into the lake?" Jen laughed.
"Score!" And they gave eacother an accross the table high five. Again, it looked really weird.
"Right." James nodded giving Lily an odd look.
"So Prongsie, who where you saying you liked?" Sirius asked with a smirk on his face.
James turned red.
"Aww, James is in love! How-" she as about to say cute but then realized something, "disgusting."
"Disgusting?" James asked.
"Yes disgusting! You always pick the ditzy bimbo sluts."
"Not this time, this girl is better."
"Oh really? Lily gosta meet her. Wait, what is she like?"
"She's beautiful. And amazing, independant, hot, smart, witty, sarcastic, hot, sweet, generouse, hot, different-"
"Enough!" Lily interupted covering her ears. "I dont like to listen to girls being talked about that way. Just go ask her out, or I'm going to die of you dreaming of her."
"Nah, I cant ask her out." James sighed.
"Aww, why not? Is Prongsie afraid? Oh my GOD! PRONGS IS AFRAID!!!!!" She cheered triumphly. Seeing James' face she sat down.
"Why?"
"She'd say no."
"What? No girl would say not to the 'famouse James Potter'! That is except for Ara, Jen, and I. But anyway, I'm rambling, so I'll shut up now."
"Sha la la la la Oh my my look like the boys too shy Ain't gonna kiss the girl Sha la la la la." Sirius danced a Hula dance to yet another verse of The Little Mermaid.
"Sirius, do you have an obssesion with that song ?" Lily asked.
"Yes. Sabastian is my hero."
'"Figures." Lily muttered.
"Well anyway, we better go to History of Magic. You know how Proffessor Binns. We're Griffies." Ara stood up and made their way to the cold
"Us Griffies?" Remus raised an eyebrow.
"Yes, Griffies. Auzies, Griffies..no, you dont get it." Ara shook her head.
Jen begged, "Remus, could you please reverse this spell." Remus, who secretly liked Jen, nodded and returned her to normal spell.
"Sirius?" Ara walked up to him and stuck her fist infront of his face. Sirius chuckled hesitantly and returned her to normal.
The seven friends were walking down the hall when a loud "JAMSIE!" was heard from behind him.
They all spun around and saw Katie rushing towards James. She pulled him into a close and tight embrace. James imediatly pulled back, just in time,too because her nose grew about a foot long. James' eyes widened and tried to back away.
"What are you doing Katie?" James asked.
"What do you mean?" She frowned.
"If I didnt make it clear yesterday, we're THROUGH."
"But-but- its all a missunderstanding! Really! He coaxed me! This was the FIRST time i kissed somebody when we were going out and-"
"Liar. You were cheating on me in the beggining."
"I-I-I..who told you that?" She stuttered, crossing her arms.
"I did." Jen said walking up to Katie.
"Well, well, if it isn't the backstabing traitor." She tuted.
"Backstabing tratior? BACKSTABING TRAITOR!? Look who's talking! You're the one coaxed my boyfriend into cheating on me with you, while you were with James. When I found out, which was a month later, you got mad at me and 'disowned me'. First, I was sad I lost you guys as friends. Then I realized, you were never my friend. And I could stop pretending. I thought I lost something. No, I gained something. Them. They are my friends. FRIENDS! THEY gave me a second chance. THEY trust me. I trust them! So you can go f*** yourself."
Katie whent "Hmph" and stomped her foot. Having such a big nose, it made her looser her balance and she fell forward flat on the grownd.
Katie gaped at Jen's retreating back. Ara laughed as she pulled Lily to catch up with her. Sirius gave her a one-fingered wave and laughed like the maniac he was. Remus danced around in circles and Peter chanted:
"I'm cute, I'm hot, I'm everything your not..." (A/N: Eww)
While James laughed his head off. They stopped after Katie stormed away, and went to join the girls who werent too far ahead.
"Nice Jen!" Sirius said and gave her a high five.
"Thanx. Theres the bell. LETS DITCH HISTORY!" Jen yelled.
"YEAH!" Sirius jumped up and down.
"I was kidding!" Jen rolled her eyes.
"No, really, we should. Binns wont care. Well, he wont notice." James reasoned.
"I guess you're right.."Ara shrugged.
"Of coarse we're right." Sirius said puting his arm around Ara, who ducked and shrugged it off.
"YOU DONT LOVE ME?" Sirius clutched his heart.
"Well.." She said getting close to him. "NO!" She yelled into his ear and lauhged.
"You're so evil Ara. Can't you tell Sirius is just madly in love with you? He dreams about you all night. I hear him. It goes something like this, 'Oh Ara honey. I love you. Come on, you know you love me!'"James mocked.
"James.." Sirius warned.
"He deserves revenge, Siri!" Lily said.
" 'Oh Ara. Will you be my girlfriend?'" James mocked again.
"Now you can shut it James." Lily rolled her eyes.
"Fine. Let's hurry up to the common room before we get caught."
They all nodded and ran to the portrait. They dodged the teachers and Peeves, although there werent very many, as they were all teaching. (Nah..really?)
They sighed with relief as they plopped onto golden embroid sofas. "What shall we do?" Sirius asked, putting his arm around Ara, who took it off.
"You don't love me?"
"Haven't I already answered? NO!" Ara scooched further away from him.
Everybody thought Sirius was just playing, but he wasnt. The thing he wanted most was to just be able to put his arm around Ara. Ok well mabye something else, too, but...
Meanwhile James was staring at Lily. Each time she smiled, it was contagious. Her green eyes lit up with a smile for its self. He couldn't help it. He realized he was helplessly in love with Lily Evans. Then, he realized for the second time, he couldn't have her. The girl he just happened to fall madly in love with was the one he couldnt have. His stomache, for the first time, felt like somebody had punched a hole in him. Love?
"Siri, thats hilarious!" Lily doubled over in laughter.
"Yeah, well, thats me." Sirius sat back.
"Siri The Hilariouse?" Ara mused. "Sounds good."
"No! He stays Padfoot!" Remus objected.
"I think i should be The Hilarious and Sizzling Hot Padfoot." Sirius joked.
"No! I think you should be Slobbefoot." Jen suggested.
"Slobberfoot? What kind of name is that?" Peter squeaked.
"Slobber...foot. Slobberfoot. I like it." Sirius nodded.
"I thought you wanted to be The Hilariouse and Sizzling Hot Padfoot." Lily cokced her head to the side.
"You're right! It slipped my mind."
"coughshorttermmemorycough." Remus 'coughed'.
"Jamsie, whats wrong? You havent said anything all!" Ara asked, smirking because she knew the answer.
"Yeah James, snap out of La-la-Lily-Land!" Sirius repeated the fraze.
"La-la-whata land?" Lily asked, narrowing her eyebrows.
"La-La-Lanya-Land!" James said quickly without thinking what he was saying.
"Tanya Lanya? That Ravenclaw?" Lily asked, with a smirk on her face. Before James could answer she burst out, "James..you thought she'd say no! No offence..nah i take that back..SHE IS MADLY IN LOVE WITH YOU!" Lily yelled.
"She...is?" James said not knowing what else to say.
"No." Lily said sarcasticly. "It's just a surprise. I thought you would have learned that ditzy girls are bad news after Katie. And I thought you said she wasnt ditzy."
"Thats not who I was talking about." James sighed. Was he going to tell her?
"Then who?" Lily raised an eyebrow.
"Well uh.."
"Dont try and worm your way out of this one. I know your madly in love with her, and I just cant stand and see Jamsie Wamsie here heart broken, so you besta get together with her." Lily said with an attitude.
"Anyways, got any good pranks we can play on the Slythies?" Ara changed the subject quickly. When Lily looked away, James mouthed 'Thank You!' and Ara mouthed back 'No Prob.'.
"Oh! Lets turn them into chickens!" Sirius clapped.
"It would be to hard. I'm feeling lazy." Lily twirled her wand in her fingers.
"Well, mabye we can make them look like chickens." Jen shrugged
"YEAH! We'll drop some glue on them, then drop feathers!" Remus jumped up.
"That'll work!" Lily thought outloud. "We could transfigure something into a humungus bucket. Then I can Wingosa (what they call Wingardium Leviosa for short) over them. Then we can drop feathers on them."
"Ha! That'll be great!" James laughed.
"Of coarse it will, we thought of it!" Ara grinned.
"Lils, you can do the charms, James you do the transfiguration." Sirius commanded.
"Yes Siri." Lily solluted.
"Thats what I like to hear. Now, what shall we do?!" Sirius said this in a hurry, halfway out the door.
"Spin the bottle?" James suggested.
"No!" Everyone said at once.
"Chess?" Remus suggested.
"No!" Again in unison.
"LETS PLAY SPEED BALL!" Ara jumed up and down.
"Yeah! I'll go get the brooms!" Lily called, running towards a wall.
"Brooms? How are you going to get them?" James mused.
"Don't tell me you guys dont know!" Lily stopped with a smirk on her face. "The all-mighty trouble makers of Hogwarts don't know the Quiditch Ditch?" Lily's lips broke into a huge smile.
"The what?" Sirius scratched his head.
"The Quiditch Ditch you idiot." Ara threw her hands in the air and walked up to a small framed picture of a Quiditch player. She grabbed it's side and twisted it to the right, then the left. Imediatly, near the corners of the wall, a big hole appeared near it.
"Wow! That's like magic!" Sirius gasped.
"Yes, Siri, its magic. Now follow us." Jen rolled her eyes and jumped into the dark hole.
"Are you sure this leads someplace?" Jame hesitated.
"Sissy." Lily teased as she whent in.
To prove he was not a sissy, James quickly followed. He was climbing down a ladder that felt like it never ended. Of coarse it did, and they hopped off. There was a dim light, and it revealed that they were in a small hut. Lily went over to a torch and lit it, illuminating the whole room. James quickly realized it was the Quiditch supply hutch. He ran over to his broom and quickly un-attatched. He had a Nightshade 200, the best of its kind. Sirius had it was well. Remus and Peter rode on Cleansweepers, which were almost as fast. Jen, Lily, and Ara rode on Nightshades 100. But theirs was black with flames on the end. Lily had green flames, Ara had blue, and Jen had a dark red. Lily had even added glitter to shimmer off the end.
"Oh...nice brooms!" Sirius poked Ara's broom.
"Hands off!" Ara slapped Sirius' hand lightly. "I don't have my Lysol handy." (A/N: I know, i know, not their era, but live w/ it.) Ara stuck her tounge out and Sirius wiped a "tear" from his eye.
"Lets go!" Lily hopped on her broom and flew up, instead of climbing. The rest followed her lead, the boys hesitant of going up the narrow hole. Finaly, they saw a light ahead, and when they flew out of the whole, it felt like going up for a breath of fresh air after being underwater for a minute.
"It really stinks down there." Peter waved his hand in front of his nose.
"I know, dosent it?" Ara echoed, fixing the picture so that the hole closed up again.
"I've always wanted to fly in the Gryfindor Common room." James smiled.
"I think we all have. I mean really, its so high! And there are some things I've always wanted to take a look at that were way up high." Lily agreed.
"Ok, just to review the rules for Speedball. Youngest player starts first. They try and hit another player. If they manage to hit another person, that person is out. If that person catches it, nothing happens, but they are in possestion of the ball. If the thrower misses, whoever picks the ball up first is in position. Whoever is left wins. When somebody is out, you can serve as distractions. If somebody who is still in throws it at you, they are out. This is all played on brooms." Remus reviewd as he mounted his broom.
"Gotcha." Jen nodded as she hopped onto her broom, as did everyone else.
"Who's youngest?" James asked.
"Me!" Peter raised his hand.
"Ok. Peter you start. On the count of three." Lily tossed Peter the ball.
"One! Two! Three!" They all said together as they flew off into different directions. Peter, not being as good a broom rider as the rest, slowly glided upwards, searching for his first victim. Sirius seemed pretty close. Peter smiled and glided over to Sirius, who was having fun doing loopdy loops, and was obliviouse to the fact that Peter was behind him.
"Ha ha! I've got you now!" Peter hesitated as he hit the ball at Sirius. Sirius stopped in midair, and thanks to his fast Quiditch instinct, he dodged to the right.
"Ha ha! You missed me!" Sirius stuck his tounge out and dived to catch the falling ball. He caught it as he was about to hit the ground. Sirius searched for his friends. Jen was a few feet away, she had been trying to catch the ball as well. She quickly darted away, as Sirius snickered to himself.
"Come back here Jenna!" Sirius teased, flying equaly as fast towards her.
"Noooo!" Jen sharply ducked as Sirius threw the ball in the air.
"Damn you." He cursed.
"Meanie!" Jen said as she dived for the ball, and caught it. She cackled and threw the ball at Sirius. It took him by surprised, and he flew backwards, which looked more like he bounced back.
James was near by, and he quickly too this chance and darted off the walls of the Gryfindor Common room. He caught the ball just as he said, "We better not break anything."
"You're right, it is sort of stupid to play in the common room." Ara popped out from behind a large torch.
"Well, we're stupid people." Sirius dodged James' throw, which just barley missed. He caught the ball and threw it at Lily, who just swooped down. She was going fast, so it missed her. She however flew to catch it.
"Now where is dear little Ara?" Lily asked, but she knew exactly where Ara asked.
"Could she possibly be behind that statue of a lion who is missing its right eye and a front tooth? Nah." She asked playfully as she flew closer to Ara's hiding spot.
Ara caught the hard throw without difficultiy. Smiling wickedly, she threw it back, where Lily caught it. "Nice throw." Lily complimented and threw it back, even harder.
"Thank you." Ara threw it back.
"You're welcome." Lily threw it.
"Do you play softball?" Ara inquired, throwing.
"Played." Lily threw it back.
"Did you like it?"
"Yeah, I did."
"How old were you? I dont remember you telling me this!"
"I was six. It must have slipped my mind." Lily shrugged. It was become more of a game of catch, they werent really focusing on the throwing.
"UHEM!" Remus coughed. Lily smiled sheepishly and ran off with the ball. She swooped down behind Peter and tried to throw it at him. He caught it and threw it at Sirius, who dodged it, and James caught it. He threw it to Jen, who threw it to Ara, who threw it to Sirius, who threw it to Peter, who threw it to Lily, who threw it to Jen, who threw it to Remus, who threw it to Lily, who threw it back to Remus, who threw it back to Ara. Yes, I know it needs more detail, but this was going all very fast. They all had caught it almost perfectly, and it was getting very fast. Ara threw it to James, who held it in his hand.
"James, you ruined the speed!" Lily complained.
"Oh yeah?" He raised an eyebrow, and began to fly extreamily fast into Lily. Lily knew he wasn't going to stop, so she started to fly away. She flew to the portrait and pushed it open, and exited. Everybody followed, not wanting to miss this.
It was every Quiditch player's dream to be able to fly inside the castle. I mean really, the tall celings, it made you feel like you were hovering over the magical world. Lily flew as high and as fast as she could. She was laughing the whole time, aware of what trouble she would get into, but not caring.
James and the rest was on her tail, enjoying chasing after Lily.
Finaly, James threw the ball, directly at Lily, who dove to catch the ball. She could do it extreamily well, and Sirius started to clap. Lily laughed and threw the ball playfully at him. He wasn't expecting it, and it hit him square in the forhead. Everyone laughed as he gaped.
"HEY!" He whined and threw it back at Lily, who ducked, and it hit Ara.
"YOU LITTLE-" She yelled and threw it at Sirius. Sirius speeded it at Remus, who threw it at James. This whole time they were slowly drifting towards the grownd, and were now a few feet away. James had a good arm, and he flung it at Lily, who dodged and instead, the ball hit a window. Lucky them, the ball was a little, and it compleatly shatered the window. They all gasped and ran to the window it had gone through.
"Crapio!" Jen cursed. "That's McGonagalds office!"
"You mean she's teaching in there?" James gasped.
"No, she teaches somewhere else." Lily explained as she carefully opened the door and ran inside. She gasped. Lets just say the ball had shattered more than just the window.

"Lily! Wake up! WE'RE ALIVE!" Jen said shaking her sleeping friend.
"What-hey! I AM ALIVE!" She screamed.
"I was excpecting us to die durning the night!" Ara said waking pretend sweat of her forehead.
"No pranks done on us so far?" Lily asked.
"None at all." She confirmed.
"Ok, this is weird. Well anyway, lets start our pranks."
They nodded and quickly walked over to Katie's bed.
"Sweet revenge." Ara smiled. Jen and Ara heard exactly what happened when Lily came back. They were all disgusted and were going to get her good.
"How about whenver she lies her nose grows?"
"Or whenever she flirts her nose grows?" Ara suggested.
"Perfect!" Jen cackled.
"Bloody wonderfull." Lily did a quick swish-flick and muttered a spell under her breath, as not to wake Katie.
"I'm betting on five feet by noon." Jen laughed as they walked away into the boy's dorms.
"Now what shall we do to them?" Ara asked as she inspected the sleeping Marauders.
"How about a spontaniouse preformance in front of the great hall?" Lily suggested.
"What kind?"
"Many. Rock, strip, Barney song, seranade, hula, ect, ect." Lily said waving her hand.
"How about they seranade Snapey-poo?"
"That should be something!" Lily laughed as she preformed the more complex charm.
"Ok, I'm having them sing that L-O-V-E song. I heard Remus has quite a nice voice, I'll look forward to it." Lily teased as they walked out. They were pulling quite simple pranks, but pranks none the less.
"Lils, you idiot! You stole my shirt!" Ara poked Lily's arm.
"Damn, its not my fauly you left it at my house!"
" ' My Imaginary Friend Says You Have Serious Promblems'." Jen read the shirt outloud. "Sirius needs that."
"You're right! Ara, his birthday is comming soon!" Lily winked.
"You know as well that I do that Sirius' birthday is July 25, he circled it in a dark bloody red circles and wrote it all over the walls." Ara laughed shoving her friend slightly.
"Well, I have to take a shower, lets head back to our dorm." Jen interupted.
"BLOODY HELL!" Jen screamed from the shower. Her friends came rushing to the door and asked her if she was ok. She didnt answer, instead she opened the door. She was wrapped around with a towel, and her skin was...green?
"What happened?" Lily asked holding back her laughs.
"Marauders. They put dye in the showers." Jen said imedeatly.
"You're right. I wonder who's there next victim." Lily said in a menasing whisper.
"Lils, if you know a counter curse, dont tell me. I think I like my skin green." Ara said sarcasticly.
"Right." Lily muttered something under her breath, but it had no effect.
"Sorry, only they can reverse it." Lily frowned.
"Oh well. I'm sure I'll learn to love my green skin." Ara shrugged as she pulled some clothes on. Lily laughed and went into the bathroom to look for "clues". As she walked by the mirror, it randomly broke into thousands of little pieces.
"Woha!" Lily stepped backwards.
"Lil, you're not that ugly are you?" Jen teased as she fixed the mirror.
"I'm sure it was loose or something." Lily shrugged as she pulled out a hand mirror. She smiled and it also broke.
"Damn my good friends the Marauders." Lily threw the already broken mirror accross the room.
"Jen, you're the only one left." Ara whispered in the same tone that Lily had earlier.
"Mabye they've decided not to prank me this year!"
"Yeah, and my grandma is the Queen of Scotts." Lily replied sarcasticly.
"Tell her I said hi." Ara said seriously.
"Woha, you just pulled a Sirius." Jen joked.
"They're rubbing off on us!"
"Nah, we're rubbing off on them." Ara laughed.
Together, they walked down to the common room. On the way down the met up with the Marauders.
"YOU LITTLE-" Lily started as she charged onto the closest Maruader. That was (surprise surprise) James!
"How-dare-you-change-Ara-green-and-make-mirrors-break-when-I-walk-by?" Lily lectured with a playfull punch.
James was down on the ground and Lily was sitting on his stomache puching him.
"Happy Prank Day??" James asked hesitantly. Lily burst into laughter.
Once they had both stopped laughing, they stared at eachother. Lily was still in the akward possition.
"Sha la la la la la Don't be scared You've got the mood prepared Go on and kiss the girl Sha la la la la la Don't stop now Don't try to hide it how, you wanna Kiss the girl (woah-woah!)!" Sirius sang a line from the Little Mermaid. Ara quickly covered his mouth.
Lily rolled her eyes and stood up
"Do you really think I'm that ugly?" Lily pretended to cry.
"Not at all. If a million people sat a million typewriters for a million years, they would never be able to type enough words to describe how beautiful you are. And why is it I gotta climb a hundred mountains to get you, but all you gotta do is smile to get me? I think about you all the time. If you gave me a rose for every time i think of you, I'd be walking in roses forever."
"Awwwwww." Sirius was the first to one recover from the little recital.
"Did you think that off the top of your head?" Lily asked and James nodded.
"Good job pal." She said and patted him on the back as they headed down to breakfast. James sighed and reluctantly followed. Sirius, who was right beside him asked, "You meant it didn't you?" And James nodded.
As soon as the boys entered the Great Hall, the curse hit them. The girls made them perpousfully late for breakfast so that the whole school would see their preformance.
Like robots, the Marauders marched over to the Slytherin table. Sirius majicly conjured three guitars, a microphone, and four spanish hats. They each put on a hat and a guitar while Remus took the microphone.
"Oh Snivilus, how I love you, Oh, what should i do? Your rotten smile, You can smell your breath from a mile, It may smell like dead rats, but at least we have hats!" Remus sang in a very deep voice.
(All:) "Oh, la, la, la, We love you, la la la, your nose may be to big for your head, but thats ok, your hair may be greesy,"
"LIKE MAC AND CHEEEEEESY!" Sirius finished in a squeaky standing up and bowing. Then, again they started.
"L, is for the way you LOOK at me." Remus said getting unusally close to Snape. "O, is for the only ONE I see." Sirius sang stroking his cheek. "V, is for very very extraordinary." James sang shaking his butt and sitting on a dumbfounded Snape's lap. "E is even more than anyone that you adore and-" Peter sang in a surprisingly good voice, and along with everybody else, posed a few feet away from Snape.
(All:) "Love is all that I can give to you, Love is more than just a game for two, Two in love can make it, Take my heart and please don't break it, Love was made for me and you !" James sang the last line and inched up to Snape's face. Their lips wer about to touch when Snap let out a blood-curling scream. This knocked the Marauders off their trance, and letting out a yell as well, and running away to the saftey of their table. Those who hadn't alreayd burst into laughter started now. "DEVILS!" James roared as he approached his friends. He grabbed his laughing friends by the colar.
"Mr.Potter," Dumbledore chuckled, "would you please let go of the girls?"
James laughed hesitantly and let go of his friends. Silently, he sprinkled some dust into Jen's drink.
"Did you see Molly? She was covered in feathers!" Jen laughed, and took a sip of her drink. The results were instant. Her skin shrivilled up and her eyes started to bag. Her brown hair went straight and white. Her eyes faded out and her back slumped.
"HELLO GRANDMA JHONSTONE!" Sirius roared with laughter.
"I'll get you sonny!" Jen waved a cane in the air.
"WHAT DID YOU DO?" Ara bellowed.
"Calm down Ara dear!" Sirius backed away.
"I AM NOT ARA DEAR! I AM ARA! Now what did you do to my friend?" She said in a calmer tone.
"Hey its temporary,lasts an hour!"
"How about my skin?"
"Same." Ara smiled and nodded and sat next to Lily.
"How 'bout her?" Jen asked pointing to Lily.
"All day." James sniggered.
"You do know I'm not finished with you." Lily whispered menacingly.
"Oh I'm so scared!!" James rolled his eyes sarcasticly.
"Good."
And she placed herself on his lap and gave him a long kiss on the lips...
HAHAHAHAHHAHAH FOOLED YA!!! JUST KIDDING THAT LAST SENTENCE NEVER HAPPENED.
Lily laughed and walked away.
'She's so beautiful.' James sighed to himself. 'The way her beautiful hair gleams and falls past her shoulders. And the way she smiles, and the way she laughs, and that beautiful smile. And the way she's waving to me with just one finger in the air, God I love that wave.'
"PRONGS, EARTH TO PRONGS! SNAP OUT OF LA-LA-LILY-LAND!" James' dear friend yelled into his ear.
"Quiet down, Sonny!" Grandma Jen scolded.
"Sorry Grandma." He rolled his eyes.
"Padfoot, you didnt need to YELL that!" James hushed looking around franticly.
"So, Prongsie has a crush!" Ara chuckled and sat down next to him.
"DONT YOU DARE TELL ANYBODY!" James warned.
"Nah. Friends dont tell the world that their friend has a crush on our best friend." Ara patted his back reasuringly.
"HEY EVERYBODY, JAMES IS MAAAADLY IN LOVE WITH-" Ara yelled and looked at James' shocked face. "A COW!" Ara burst into laughter seeing James' face.
"Well Ara, that was just mean!" James said.
"Sorry, i couldnt help but make fun of your twisted love life."
"Nah, not that, you called Lilikins a cow!" James sounded hurt.
"Lilikins? Prongsie, LILS wont like that name." Jen said matter-o-factly. This looked odd coming from an old lady.
"WHY does everybody call me Prongise?" James put his head in his hands.
"Because..it sounds good!" Ara lied. "Lils will love that name."
"Really?" He asked hopefully.
"No." Jen smiled.
"Don't be so pessimistic!" Remus lectured.
"Hey, thats my line!" Jen threw a french frie at Remus.
"Manners, grandma!" Ara said nudging Old Lady Jen.
A disgruntled Lily, red with anger and frustration, marched up to her friends.
"Somebody shoot me!" Lily sighed.
"I'd be glad to." Sirius smiled.
"Shut it Siri. What's wrong Lils?" Remus asked.
"Gildory Farthart-"
"Who?" James interupted.
"Lockhart. Anyways. He goes up to me and says, 'My magical watch says you aren't wearing your panties. Oh wait, it's an hour early.' Eww. Dosen't he know not to mess with Lily and her Fufu?" She said shaking an image out of her head.
Everybody laughed except for James, who was both red with anger and with confusion.
"Who's Fufu?"
"My fist." She said happily.
"Ah. Into the lake?" Jen laughed.
"Score!" And they gave eacother an accross the table high five. Again, it looked really weird.
"Right." James nodded giving Lily an odd look.
"So Prongsie, who where you saying you liked?" Sirius asked with a smirk on his face.
James turned red.
"Aww, James is in love! How-" she as about to say cute but then realized something, "disgusting."
"Disgusting?" James asked.
"Yes disgusting! You always pick the ditzy bimbo sluts."
"Not this time, this girl is better."
"Oh really? Lily gosta meet her. Wait, what is she like?"
"She's beautiful. And amazing, independant, hot, smart, witty, sarcastic, hot, sweet, generouse, hot, different-"
"Enough!" Lily interupted covering her ears. "I dont like to listen to girls being talked about that way. Just go ask her out, or I'm going to die of you dreaming of her."
"Nah, I cant ask her out." James sighed.
"Aww, why not? Is Prongsie afraid? Oh my GOD! PRONGS IS AFRAID!!!!!" She cheered triumphly. Seeing James' face she sat down.
"Why?"
"She'd say no."
"What? No girl would say not to the 'famouse James Potter'! That is except for Ara, Jen, and I. But anyway, I'm rambling, so I'll shut up now."
"Sha la la la la Oh my my look like the boys too shy Ain't gonna kiss the girl Sha la la la la." Sirius danced a Hula dance to yet another verse of The Little Mermaid.
"Sirius, do you have an obssesion with that song ?" Lily asked.
"Yes. Sabastian is my hero."
'"Figures." Lily muttered.
"Well anyway, we better go to History of Magic. You know how Proffessor Binns. We're Griffies." Ara stood up and made their way to the cold
"Us Griffies?" Remus raised an eyebrow.
"Yes, Griffies. Auzies, Griffies..no, you dont get it." Ara shook her head.
Jen begged, "Remus, could you please reverse this spell." Remus, who secretly liked Jen, nodded and returned her to normal spell.
"Sirius?" Ara walked up to him and stuck her fist infront of his face. Sirius chuckled hesitantly and returned her to normal.
The seven friends were walking down the hall when a loud "JAMSIE!" was heard from behind him.
They all spun around and saw Katie rushing towards James. She pulled him into a close and tight embrace. James imediatly pulled back, just in time,too because her nose grew about a foot long. James' eyes widened and tried to back away.
"What are you doing Katie?" James asked.
"What do you mean?" She frowned.
"If I didnt make it clear yesterday, we're THROUGH."
"But-but- its all a missunderstanding! Really! He coaxed me! This was the FIRST time i kissed somebody when we were going out and-"
"Liar. You were cheating on me in the beggining."
"I-I-I..who told you that?" She stuttered, crossing her arms.
"I did." Jen said walking up to Katie.
"Well, well, if it isn't the backstabing traitor." She tuted.
"Backstabing tratior? BACKSTABING TRAITOR!? Look who's talking! You're the one coaxed my boyfriend into cheating on me with you, while you were with James. When I found out, which was a month later, you got mad at me and 'disowned me'. First, I was sad I lost you guys as friends. Then I realized, you were never my friend. And I could stop pretending. I thought I lost something. No, I gained something. Them. They are my friends. FRIENDS! THEY gave me a second chance. THEY trust me. I trust them! So you can go f*** yourself."
Katie whent "Hmph" and stomped her foot. Having such a big nose, it made her looser her balance and she fell forward flat on the grownd.
Katie gaped at Jen's retreating back. Ara laughed as she pulled Lily to catch up with her. Sirius gave her a one-fingered wave and laughed like the maniac he was. Remus danced around in circles and Peter chanted:
"I'm cute, I'm hot, I'm everything your not..." (A/N: Eww)
While James laughed his head off. They stopped after Katie stormed away, and went to join the girls who werent too far ahead.
"Nice Jen!" Sirius said and gave her a high five.
"Thanx. Theres the bell. LETS DITCH HISTORY!" Jen yelled.
"YEAH!" Sirius jumped up and down.
"I was kidding!" Jen rolled her eyes.
"No, really, we should. Binns wont care. Well, he wont notice." James reasoned.
"I guess you're right.."Ara shrugged.
"Of coarse we're right." Sirius said puting his arm around Ara, who ducked and shrugged it off.
"YOU DONT LOVE ME?" Sirius clutched his heart.
"Well.." She said getting close to him. "NO!" She yelled into his ear and lauhged.
"You're so evil Ara. Can't you tell Sirius is just madly in love with you? He dreams about you all night. I hear him. It goes something like this, 'Oh Ara honey. I love you. Come on, you know you love me!'"James mocked.
"James.." Sirius warned.
"He deserves revenge, Siri!" Lily said.
" 'Oh Ara. Will you be my girlfriend?'" James mocked again.
"Now you can shut it James." Lily rolled her eyes.
"Fine. Let's hurry up to the common room before we get caught."
They all nodded and ran to the portrait. They dodged the teachers and Peeves, although there werent very many, as they were all teaching. (Nah..really?)
They sighed with relief as they plopped onto golden embroid sofas. "What shall we do?" Sirius asked, putting his arm around Ara, who took it off.
"You don't love me?"
"Haven't I already answered? NO!" Ara scooched further away from him.
Everybody thought Sirius was just playing, but he wasnt. The thing he wanted most was to just be able to put his arm around Ara. Ok well mabye something else, too, but...
Meanwhile James was staring at Lily. Each time she smiled, it was contagious. Her green eyes lit up with a smile for its self. He couldn't help it. He realized he was helplessly in love with Lily Evans. Then, he realized for the second time, he couldn't have her. The girl he just happened to fall madly in love with was the one he couldnt have. His stomache, for the first time, felt like somebody had punched a hole in him. Love?
"Siri, thats hilarious!" Lily doubled over in laughter.
"Yeah, well, thats me." Sirius sat back.
"Siri The Hilariouse?" Ara mused. "Sounds good."
"No! He stays Padfoot!" Remus objected.
"I think i should be The Hilarious and Sizzling Hot Padfoot." Sirius joked.
"No! I think you should be Slobbefoot." Jen suggested.
"Slobberfoot? What kind of name is that?" Peter squeaked.
"Slobber...foot. Slobberfoot. I like it." Sirius nodded.
"I thought you wanted to be The Hilariouse and Sizzling Hot Padfoot." Lily cokced her head to the side.
"You're right! It slipped my mind."
"coughshorttermmemorycough." Remus 'coughed'.
"Jamsie, whats wrong? You havent said anything all!" Ara asked, smirking because she knew the answer.
"Yeah James, snap out of La-la-Lily-Land!" Sirius repeated the fraze.
"La-la-whata land?" Lily asked, narrowing her eyebrows.
"La-La-Lanya-Land!" James said quickly without thinking what he was saying.
"Tanya Lanya? That Ravenclaw?" Lily asked, with a smirk on her face. Before James could answer she burst out, "James..you thought she'd say no! No offence..nah i take that back..SHE IS MADLY IN LOVE WITH YOU!" Lily yelled.
"She...is?" James said not knowing what else to say.
"No." Lily said sarcasticly. "It's just a surprise. I thought you would have learned that ditzy girls are bad news after Katie. And I thought you said she wasnt ditzy."
"Thats not who I was talking about." James sighed. Was he going to tell her?
"Then who?" Lily raised an eyebrow.
"Well uh.."
"Dont try and worm your way out of this one. I know your madly in love with her, and I just cant stand and see Jamsie Wamsie here heart broken, so you besta get together with her." Lily said with an attitude.
"Anyways, got any good pranks we can play on the Slythies?" Ara changed the subject quickly. When Lily looked away, James mouthed 'Thank You!' and Ara mouthed back 'No Prob.'.
"Oh! Lets turn them into chickens!" Sirius clapped.
"It would be to hard. I'm feeling lazy." Lily twirled her wand in her fingers.
"Well, mabye we can make them look like chickens." Jen shrugged
"YEAH! We'll drop some glue on them, then drop feathers!" Remus jumped up.
"That'll work!" Lily thought outloud. "We could transfigure something into a humungus bucket. Then I can Wingosa (what they call Wingardium Leviosa for short) over them. Then we can drop feathers on them."
"Ha! That'll be great!" James laughed.
"Of coarse it will, we thought of it!" Ara grinned.
"Lils, you can do the charms, James you do the transfiguration." Sirius commanded.
"Yes Siri." Lily solluted.
"Thats what I like to hear. Now, what shall we do?!" Sirius said this in a hurry, halfway out the door.
"Spin the bottle?" James suggested.
"No!" Everyone said at once.
"Chess?" Remus suggested.
"No!" Again in unison.
"LETS PLAY SPEED BALL!" Ara jumed up and down.
"Yeah! I'll go get the brooms!" Lily called, running towards a wall.
"Brooms? How are you going to get them?" James mused.
"Don't tell me you guys dont know!" Lily stopped with a smirk on her face. "The all-mighty trouble makers of Hogwarts don't know the Quiditch Ditch?" Lily's lips broke into a huge smile.
"The what?" Sirius scratched his head.
"The Quiditch Ditch you idiot." Ara threw her hands in the air and walked up to a small framed picture of a Quiditch player. She grabbed it's side and twisted it to the right, then the left. Imediatly, near the corners of the wall, a big hole appeared near it.
"Wow! That's like magic!" Sirius gasped.
"Yes, Siri, its magic. Now follow us." Jen rolled her eyes and jumped into the dark hole.
"Are you sure this leads someplace?" Jame hesitated.
"Sissy." Lily teased as she whent in.
To prove he was not a sissy, James quickly followed. He was climbing down a ladder that felt like it never ended. Of coarse it did, and they hopped off. There was a dim light, and it revealed that they were in a small hut. Lily went over to a torch and lit it, illuminating the whole room. James quickly realized it was the Quiditch supply hutch. He ran over to his broom and quickly un-attatched. He had a Nightshade 200, the best of its kind. Sirius had it was well. Remus and Peter rode on Cleansweepers, which were almost as fast. Jen, Lily, and Ara rode on Nightshades 100. But theirs was black with flames on the end. Lily had green flames, Ara had blue, and Jen had a dark red. Lily had even added glitter to shimmer off the end.
"Oh...nice brooms!" Sirius poked Ara's broom.
"Hands off!" Ara slapped Sirius' hand lightly. "I don't have my Lysol handy." (A/N: I know, i know, not their era, but live w/ it.) Ara stuck her tounge out and Sirius wiped a "tear" from his eye.
"Lets go!" Lily hopped on her broom and flew up, instead of climbing. The rest followed her lead, the boys hesitant of going up the narrow hole. Finaly, they saw a light ahead, and when they flew out of the whole, it felt like going up for a breath of fresh air after being underwater for a minute.
"It really stinks down there." Peter waved his hand in front of his nose.
"I know, dosent it?" Ara echoed, fixing the picture so that the hole closed up again.
"I've always wanted to fly in the Gryfindor Common room." James smiled.
"I think we all have. I mean really, its so high! And there are some things I've always wanted to take a look at that were way up high." Lily agreed.
"Ok, just to review the rules for Speedball. Youngest player starts first. They try and hit another player. If they manage to hit another person, that person is out. If that person catches it, nothing happens, but they are in possestion of the ball. If the thrower misses, whoever picks the ball up first is in position. Whoever is left wins. When somebody is out, you can serve as distractions. If somebody who is still in throws it at you, they are out. This is all played on brooms." Remus reviewd as he mounted his broom.
"Gotcha." Jen nodded as she hopped onto her broom, as did everyone else.
"Who's youngest?" James asked.
"Me!" Peter raised his hand.
"Ok. Peter you start. On the count of three." Lily tossed Peter the ball.
"One! Two! Three!" They all said together as they flew off into different directions. Peter, not being as good a broom rider as the rest, slowly glided upwards, searching for his first victim. Sirius seemed pretty close. Peter smiled and glided over to Sirius, who was having fun doing loopdy loops, and was obliviouse to the fact that Peter was behind him.
"Ha ha! I've got you now!" Peter hesitated as he hit the ball at Sirius. Sirius stopped in midair, and thanks to his fast Quiditch instinct, he dodged to the right.
"Ha ha! You missed me!" Sirius stuck his tounge out and dived to catch the falling ball. He caught it as he was about to hit the ground. Sirius searched for his friends. Jen was a few feet away, she had been trying to catch the ball as well. She quickly darted away, as Sirius snickered to himself.
"Come back here Jenna!" Sirius teased, flying equaly as fast towards her.
"Noooo!" Jen sharply ducked as Sirius threw the ball in the air.
"Damn you." He cursed.
"Meanie!" Jen said as she dived for the ball, and caught it. She cackled and threw the ball at Sirius. It took him by surprised, and he flew backwards, which looked more like he bounced back.
James was near by, and he quickly too this chance and darted off the walls of the Gryfindor Common room. He caught the ball just as he said, "We better not break anything."
"You're right, it is sort of stupid to play in the common room." Ara popped out from behind a large torch.
"Well, we're stupid people." Sirius dodged James' throw, which just barley missed. He caught the ball and threw it at Lily, who just swooped down. She was going fast, so it missed her. She however flew to catch it.
"Now where is dear little Ara?" Lily asked, but she knew exactly where Ara asked.
"Could she possibly be behind that statue of a lion who is missing its right eye and a front tooth? Nah." She asked playfully as she flew closer to Ara's hiding spot.
Ara caught the hard throw without difficultiy. Smiling wickedly, she threw it back, where Lily caught it. "Nice throw." Lily complimented and threw it back, even harder.
"Thank you." Ara threw it back.
"You're welcome." Lily threw it.
"Do you play softball?" Ara inquired, throwing.
"Played." Lily threw it back.
"Did you like it?"
"Yeah, I did."
"How old were you? I dont remember you telling me this!"
"I was six. It must have slipped my mind." Lily shrugged. It was become more of a game of catch, they werent really focusing on the throwing.
"UHEM!" Remus coughed. Lily smiled sheepishly and ran off with the ball. She swooped down behind Peter and tried to throw it at him. He caught it and threw it at Sirius, who dodged it, and James caught it. He threw it to Jen, who threw it to Ara, who threw it to Sirius, who threw it to Peter, who threw it to Lily, who threw it to Jen, who threw it to Remus, who threw it to Lily, who threw it back to Remus, who threw it back to Ara. Yes, I know it needs more detail, but this was going all very fast. They all had caught it almost perfectly, and it was getting very fast. Ara threw it to James, who held it in his hand.
"James, you ruined the speed!" Lily complained.
"Oh yeah?" He raised an eyebrow, and began to fly extreamily fast into Lily. Lily knew he wasn't going to stop, so she started to fly away. She flew to the portrait and pushed it open, and exited. Everybody followed, not wanting to miss this.
It was every Quiditch player's dream to be able to fly inside the castle. I mean really, the tall celings, it made you feel like you were hovering over the magical world. Lily flew as high and as fast as she could. She was laughing the whole time, aware of what trouble she would get into, but not caring.
James and the rest was on her tail, enjoying chasing after Lily.
Finaly, James threw the ball, directly at Lily, who dove to catch the ball. She could do it extreamily well, and Sirius started to clap. Lily laughed and threw the ball playfully at him. He wasn't expecting it, and it hit him square in the forhead. Everyone laughed as he gaped.
"HEY!" He whined and threw it back at Lily, who ducked, and it hit Ara.
"YOU LITTLE-" She yelled and threw it at Sirius. Sirius speeded it at Remus, who threw it at James. This whole time they were slowly drifting towards the grownd, and were now a few feet away. James had a good arm, and he flung it at Lily, who dodged and instead, the ball hit a window. Lucky them, the ball was a little, and it compleatly shatered the window. They all gasped and ran to the window it had gone through.
"Crapio!" Jen cursed. "That's McGonagalds office!"
"You mean she's teaching in there?" James gasped.
"No, she teaches somewhere else." Lily explained as she carefully opened the door and ran inside. She gasped. Lets just say the ball had shattered more than just the window.
