Chapter 8

The Naming of Names

The rest of the summer flew past as quickly as a snitch. Everyone was anxious to get back to Hogwarts to start their second year. The girls and boys had all gotten their school supplies in Diagon Ally and were looking through it all when Mr. Potter came in the room to talk to the kids.

"James, Sirius, Remus, Lillian, Melody, and Rosie- you all need to made up group names for yourselves, it's to much breath to say all your names. I just wanted to wish you all good luck in the upcoming term and you all are welcome back at any time you need to stay here." Mr. Potter said.

"Why thank you Mr. Potter, we would all love to come and stay again sometime." Rosie said.

..::September 1st::..

"If Sirius hadn't slept in we could have gotten a compartment in the back." Rosie complained.

"Well you girls shouldn't have taken so long in the bathroom!" Sirius argued.

After a few more seconds of looking, the gang found a compartment. After about the tenth time of playing Gobstones the boys were getting a little board.

"Hey, remember when your dad said that we should make up names for ourselves? Do you think we really should?" Sirius asked.

"You boys should be 'The Marauders'." Lily said lazily as she, Rosie, and Mels all looked at 'Teen Witch Magazine'.

"Cool name LilyFlower! Yah and you girls should be called... 'The Marauder's Chicks'!" James suggested.

"Umm... No! How about the 'Gryffindor Girls'?" Mel suggested.

"Yah that's cool! So we are now officially called 'The Marauders' and 'The Gryffindor Girls'! Cool!" Rosie said.

..::A Few Hours Later::..

"Owe! The sun is in my eye!" Lily complained.

"Its not like you can make it move LilyFlower." James said.

"Well I wish it would."

Then something amazing happened... THE SUN MOVED!

"That's much better! Now I ca-"

"Lily! Howdidyoudothat? I mean, How did you do that? That is completely and utterly impossible!" Remus asked in a confused tone, "I think we need to go to Professor Dumbledore, I think this has something to do with the necklaces we got last Christmas."

..::LATER::..

"You are completely correct about the necklaces Mr. Lupin. They do have something to do with what happened to Ms. Evans earlier today, and I will explain it to you in a few minutes. For right now I must call upon the Minister of Magic." Dumbledore said with a twinkle in his eye.

"No! Don't call my dad, I didn't do anything!" James complained.

"WHAT? Your dad is the Minister of Magic and you never told me?" Lily asked.

"What? I thought I told all of you last year! Sorry." James said.

"Well now that that is all over with... Mr. Potter, I know you didn't do anything. I just thought that your father would like to help me explain." Dumbledore said.

..::Ten Minutes Later::..

The Marauders and the Gryffindor Girls were all settled in Professor Dumbledore's office when Mr. Potter came in, in a rush.

"I came as soon as I got your owl Professor Du-" Mr. Potter was cut off in the middle of his sentence.

"Now Harold, I am no longer your Headmaster, therefore you may call me Albus. Now onto why I have called you here Harold, it seems as though our young Ms. Evans has figured out how to use her necklace and I thought that you could help me explain about what happened and why."

"Of coarse Albus... now children could I please see your necklaces? Thank you. Yes these are indeed them Albus. So Lillian, tell me what happened..." Mr. Potter asked.

After Lily told Mr. Potter that she had moved the sun when she had wished it to Mr. Potter looked at her with awe. He had never heard about this, except for reading about it an extremely old book, explaining everything that was to happen. He had no way to tell these six 12 year olds that they would all save the world from destruction. Or that two of them will one-day die because of a mole (AN- or should I say rat!). It would have to be planned very carefully as to not give away who would die.

"-Ms. Evans and Mr. Potter you two will get married and then die on Halloween in many years." Dumbledore had just finished telling the children.

Well so much as to planning on not giving away who will die. Mr. Potter thought to himself as he gave of a little laugh.

"DAD! WHAT IS SO FUNNY ABOUT LILY AND I DIEING ONE DAY! WHAT? I WOULD JUST LOVE TO KNOW!" James yelled as he started hyperventilating.

"Sorry, I had just been planning on being careful about how we tell you what you needed to know and not telling that Lillian and you were going to die one day, and then I heard Albus telling you. So I laughed." Mr. Potter explained.

"Anyway, could you two explain to us how these necklaces work?" Sirius finally said.

"No." Both Dumbledore and Mr. Potter said at the same time.

"WHAT?" Everyone shouted (all but Lily).

"No, you all must figure this one out on your own." Mr. Potter said as he got up from his chair, "Albus would you like to go to the kitchens and get some tea?"

"Of coarse Harold." And they started walking out, "Children if you would like a hint to the necklaces... look at the shape and you might figure it out." Dumbledore said as he exited the room with Mr. Potter. (AN- If you forgot what necklace was who's here it is:

Lily- Sun

Rosie- Cloud

Melody- Music Note

James- Fireball

Sirius- Ice Cube

Remus- Moon)

..::Boy's Dormitory::..

After that was done the Marauders and Gryffindor Girls went to talk in the boy's dormitory.

"I wonder what mine can do?" Was all everyone, but Lily, kept on asking.

"Can you believe that you and I are going to get married one day?" James asked. He and Lily were sitting on his bed talking in quiet tones.

"I know... but does that mean that we have to be boyfriend and girlfriend right now? I mean I love you... but as a friend. One day when I'm ready to be your girlfriend I'll tell you."

"No... not if you don't want to be my girlfriend yet. And you can go out with other boys to, if you like. Just don't do anything I wouldn't do." James laughed.

"Oh, so that means everything?" Lily laughed, too.

AN- Hope you liked it! I'll be writting another one this weekened! R&R
