Disclaimer: I don't own Harry Potter. I just own the messed up plot…or IS there a plot?

---Last Time---

Sirius: Hey, Moony, what was the potion for?

Remus: Oh, um, world domination…/Thinking:/ No way. It was to win Lily over! And THEN we would take over the world!
James: Well, let's go get a good night's sleep. I want to be at my best when I embarrass Snivellus tomorrow.

Sirius: Agreed.

Remus: But guys. What will we do to him?

James, Sirius, and Remus: /Pondering looks/

James: We'll figure it out in the morning. Right now, I want to dream of Lily!

Sirius and Remus: /Groan and throw pillows at James/ Shut up and go to sleep, you dolt.

Chapter 8: James Goes Mental

/The Marauders are lounging on the grass by the lake as they sunbathe/

James: This idea was pure gold, Sirius. Now, Lily won't be able to resist me with my golden brown tan!

Sirius: /Trying to refrain from laughing, as James has the complexion of a tomato/ Of course she wont, mate. Of course.

Remus: /Glances up from book/ It's not like you guys to be so…calm. What's up?

Sirius: Moony, we're just taking a day off from our jobs.

Remus: /Raises eyebrow/ Jobs?

James: /Nods/ Didn't you know that we've been hired as troublemakers of the school?

Remus: /Looking doubtful/ By who?

Sirius: The Head Girl and Boy.

Remus: /Gasp/ You're joking, right?

James: Not a chance, mate. Now just relax and tan. Maybe you'll end up looking as good as me.

Remus: /Smirks/ That will be hard to do, James.

James: Yes, I know.

Peter: /Suddenly appears carrying a Carebears beach towel and is wearing Teletubbies swim trunks/ What's happening, guys?

Sirus: Not you, Peter.

Peter: But this was the latest look in my magazine.

Remus: Which one, Peter?

Peter: /Thinks/ Digest for the Extremely Happy Man.

Sirius: /Stifles a laugh/ Oh yeah, Peter, it's the latest for a man of your stature.

Peter: /Grins, lays out towel and begins to sunbathe/

James: Hey! I just remembered something! I'll see you all later! /Suddenly runs off/

Sirius: James is acting awfully strange.

Remus: It's just your overactive imagination. Now shut up and sunbathe. You want to attract SOME girls, right?

Sirius: Oh, right. /Goes back to sunbathing/

That night in the dormitory:

Sirius: /Is sitting on bed, reading what seems to be the Daily Prophet/

James: Why Padfoot, I didn't know that you read the Daily Prophet!

Sirius: A man like myself should. /Goes back to reading/ Hey! There's a great tip for making your windows more attractive in here!

Remus: /Becomes suspicious. Walks over and takes the Daily Prophet, only to reveal…/

James: Witch Weekly?! Sirius, what the bloody hell!!

Sirius: I read it for the recipes. /Shifty eyes/

James and Remus: Riiiiiiiiight…

James: /Glances at watch/ Well, mates, I've got to be going. Ta ta! /Runs out of Gryffindor Tower/

Sirius: I have a feeling that he's up to something.

Remus: You're overreacting. Again.

Sirius: You're probably right, Moony. Then again, you're always right. Why am I never right?

Remus: Because you're not a Prefect.

Sirius: THAT explains it. /Thinks hard for a moment/ WAIT! GREAT SCOTT, I'VE GOT IT!

Remus: /Rolls eyes/ What have you thought of this time?

Sirius: THE PREFECT BADGE GIVES YOU POWERS!

Remus: /Groans and throws a pillow at Sirius/ Let's go find out what James is doing. It's got to be healthier than you thinking.

Sirius: Yeah…

Remus: /Smirks/

Twenty Minutes Later:

Sirius: Are we there yet, Remus?

Remus: /Sighs/ I don't know "where" IS, Sirius!

Sirius: Oh, ok.

/Silence/

Sirius: Remus, are we there YET?

Remus: NO, Sirius, we aren't.

Sirius: Ok.

/Silence/

Sirius: Remus, are we the—

Remus: IF YOU SAY THAT ONE MORE TIME I'LL CURSE YOU INTO OBLIVION!

Sirius: Ok. Sheesh, no need to get so hostile.

Remus: /Rolls eyes/

Suddenly:

Sirius: Do you hear that?

Remus: /Listens carefully/ If you mean high pitched singing, then yes.

Sirius: I think we found our mate.

Remus: /Sarcastic/ Brilliant deduction, Merlin.

Sirius: /Beams/ Thank you.

Remus and Sirius: /Creep over to the door and peer in through the crack/

Remus: My. God.

Sirius: BLOODY HELL!

Remus: We have to save him!

Sirius: Yes! Commando op 003! Move!

Sirius and Remus: /Burst through the door, revealing James in a room with pictures of Lily plastered all over. He's sitting at a piano, writing a song and singing lyrics. On a table is a brick that Lily threw at him, protected by a glass case. Poems are all over the table, all written about Lily/

Sirius: Don't worry, James! We're here to save you!

James: Wha?

Remus: We have to hurry, Sirius!

Remus and Sirius: /Grab James' arms and start dragging him out/

James: I DON'T WANT TO BE SAVED! LEAVE ME ALONE!

Remus: /Shakes head/ He's delusional! We have to hurry! His life is on the line!

Sirius: NO, JAMES! Don't leave me! Just hold on!

James: I'M FINE! LET ME GO!

Remus and Sirius: /Let go/

James: /Rubs arms/ Thank you. Now, if you'll excuse me, I have work to do.

Remus and Sirius: /Grab James' arms again/

Sirius: No, you don't.

James: YES I DO!

Remus: Mate, if you're that obsessed, then we HAVE to save you. /Nods to Sirius/

Sirius: /Nods and whacks James on the head, knocking him out/ Let's hope he won't be dreaming of Lily.

Remus: I doubt that.

Sirius: Well, we can torch the room to save him.

Remus: THAT'S BLOODY BRILLIANT!

Sirius: /Smirks/ You like fire, don't you?

Remus: /Hides lighters behind his back/ Um, no. /Shifty eyes/

Sirius: Oh, ok. Well, let's go!

Remus: Gladly!

James: /Wakes up, only to see all of Lily's pictures on fire/ LILY! /Faints/

Remus: /Shakes head/ He's gone mental.

Sirius: Well, now he fits in with us.

Remus: Too true.
