Harry Potter and the Animagi

Chapter 14: Chosen

"I cant think up of any names as good as Padfoot," Harry said.

"Me either," commented Emma.

"Do they have to be?" Hermione asked.

"What do you mean," asked Harry.

"Maybe, we could just have names, not nicknames like Padfoot..."

"Names like Snuffles!" Ron finished for her.

"Exactly!" Hermione said. "I want to be, Mayia."

"For HerMIONE?" Nai asked.

"No, I just like it."

"I'm Moonlight!" Emma called out.

"Sanna!" Nai called.

"Lightning is the best I can come up with," Harry said grinning at his pun.

"For the scar?" Nai asked.

Harry replied with a grin.

"I like...Nutak," Ron said.

"Alright..."

"Do you think they are good enough?" Emma asked.

"Sure Em," Harry said.

Emma pondered this for a minute. Em...Em. No one had called her that forever, at least not a boy. She liked it but...from Harry, it seemed, different. While thinking she missed some of the conversation going on.

"So what do you think Em?" Harry asked.

"Huh?" Emma said startled....again, that he called her Em.

"When should we get Sirius?"

"What's today's date?" She asked, getting an idea.

"The 30th of July....." Harry said. "The day before my birthday!"

"Tomorrow's a full moon," Emma said. (A/N July 31, 2004 actually IS a full moon this year...what a coinkey-dink!)

"...And only animals can pass through the veil and come out..." Hermione finished for her.

"And Lupin is Sirius' last best friend..." Ron finished.

"And what a good birthday present it would be...." Emma said.

"Then its settled? Tomorrow? Just remember...we must keep moonlight on Lupin." Harry said.

Likey? PLEASSE REVIEW! And I know the names sorta suck...but hey....you take what you can think of ^_~

Oh yah...wana here my quote?

"Fatal things are around every corner, but NONE of them are dangerous!"

Its not SUPPOSED to make sence...just be funny!
