DISCLAIMER: I don't own anything except Riley, and
Rebecca, and any other ppl you haven't heard of. I'm to pissed about the
5th book to own any of it. AND HE'S NOT DEAD! [Yeah I'm in denial! So
what?] Oh and I do not own any of the songs that will be used in this fic.
I'll give credit at the end.
One more thing, if you don't like the way I do things with this story, sorry to disappoint you, but it's called FAN FICTION for a reason. This story will be about the people that James, Sirius, and Remus fall in love with. At first I know it seems to focus on Riley for the most part, but don't worry next chapter is all James and Lily, and then it's onto Sirius, Remus, Rebecca, and other people. It'll be from the girls' point of view most of the time.
The young man stepped onto the Hogwarts express. Every year it never failed to amaze him that he was here, and going to school. What really shocked him was that he had friends that didn't care what he was. Remus Lupin smiled to himself when he thought of how they all met.
{Remus' mother had just left him at the train and he picked up his trunk with little difficulty. Being a werewolf had at least one perk. Another boy with black hair and blue eyes was struggling with his. He looked up at Remus; he also looked annoyed at having to ask for help. The boy sighed, "Hey, would you mind helping me?" he asked, looking as though he were daring Remus to laugh. Remus said no he wouldn't and got the other boy's trunk.
"So you a third year?" he asked.
"I'm a first year." Remus said laughing.
"Sirius Lee Black." Sirius said holding out his hand a look in his eye said that he didn't like his name.
"Remus Joshua Lupin." Remus held in a grin as he could tell Sirius was sensitive with his name.
"Cool." The two talked about Quidditch for a while, then houses, pranks..... another boy came in. Messy hair, hazel eyes, glasses. No other than James Potter.
"Potter?"
"Black?"
"AWESOME!" they both cried laughing.
"Jamie, old pal, this is new pal, Remmie Lupin!" Remus shook his hand not saying much, his shyness starting to take over. A while later Peter (oooh the hate I feel for that rat..) came in. Nothing special, but for once Remus felt normal. }
"REMMIE, MOONY!!" Remus felt something fly against him, and before he knew it he was on the ground.
"Padfoot! I told you not to eat that tub of frosting!"
"Shut it, Potter!" Sirius pulled James off his feet and down with him and Remus. Peter grinned at their antics. Sixth year had begun for the Marauders.
'I knew I'd miss the train.' Riley GoldenStar thought to her self. 'Who gives a shit as long as I get there?' With that thought she hopped on her broom and sped toward the train.
Lily Evans sat in a compartment with one of her best friends. They were both excited because their other best friend would be there soon. The three had met one summer when they were 11, and met up every summer at Rebecca Donaldson's house since then.
The Marauders were in their compartment having a chess competition. Remus was in the lead, and Peter losing. The train suddenly slammed to a stop. "Deer Crossing." The driver claimed. Everyone looked at James.
"Prongs, keep your fellows in the forest!" exclaimed Sirius.
Riley didn't notice she was right behind the train, until it stopped. She flew in the nearest window and landed in someone's lap.
"Is that your "deer" from the crossing, Moony?" James asked. Riley recognized his voice.
"Remus is just more charming than you, Potter. Deal with it." She said.
"Riley???" the Marauders asked. All of them had the same dumbfounded look on their faces.
"Cuz (a/n: as in cousin)!! This is why you haven't owled us!" Sirius said.
"But of course." Riley replied. She laughed a little.
Riley and Sirius were cousins. Riley's mother was a member of an ancient race, called the "Lost" or sometimes, "Forgotten". The Lost looked exactly like humans except they had wings. Caterinal's had been a beautiful blue color; she used a charm to make it appear she was human though. When her father, Patrick Black, found out, he left her and took Riley. Riley hated him. She couldn't hide her wings from him by herself for long. Patrick found out and literally cut them from her back; Riley still had nightmares about this. Having your wings cut out is very painful and bloody. She left and went to find her mother. She found her this summer, her mother and her heritage.
The Marauders had meet Riley when she first ran away from her biological father, from her home in America. She was in the Leaky Cauldron waiting for a couple weeks until one of her professors could make it up there. Remus, Sirius, and James had been up there getting school supplies. The rest was history. Riley was devious with pranks, scarily cunning and intelligent, but other wise underneath her bitchy exterior, she was one of the nicest people you'd ever meet. Not that she'd admit it; you'd have to take the time to get to know her. She didn't trust easily.
Remus sat in shock, partially because it was her and partially because she was in his lap. Riley hadn't changed much since he'd last seen her. Her hair was long, layered and various shades of blond and brown [(A/N: sorry about that but I'm really sick of the "dumb blond" stereotype! It annoys me really bad.)] and as always up in a ponytail. Today the tips were black. She still dressed the same, black pants with some chains, a golden starred belt, and a black tank top saying "One Galaxy Treasure", with black fish net sleeves. Her eyes still puzzled him. They were a dark deep blue, but it looked like there was eyeliner around them, giving off a smoky effect. According to Sirius she was born like that and it wouldn't come off as Riley had demonstrated. She had found out it was a characteristic of Lost women.
"So-so you're at Hogwarts this year?" Peter asked. Riley grinned and nodded.
"Oh! Sorry Rem!" she said getting up as if she just noticed where she was.
"Don't worry about it." He said shrugging.
"Aight, I'm off to find Lils and Bec."
"Hey, wait! Where's your trunk?" James asked. Riley held up a dragon bag.
"It's connected to my mom's house. I can just pull out whatever I need." She left.
"Do you think she'd help Lily see that I'm not -"?
"James! Listen to me. Just be yourself around her!" Remus said. "I know you just act the way you do around her as a cover-up! Drop the mask!"
The other Marauders looked shocked. Remus never snapped at anyone for fear of them deserting him. "Finally." Sirius said, clapping him on the back. "Wait!" Sirius suddenly exclaimed. "She found her mom!?"
"So, Lil, see James anywhere?"
"No and I don't plan on it."
"You know Riley is friends with them." Lily just shrugged as Rebecca pointed this out. Riley was a good judge of people but still! It was Potter! "Hey yall!" came a voice from the doorway. It slid open and there stood Riley! The other two ran up to her and hugged her. They were both wearing their "One Galaxy Treasure" tanks. Lily's was emerald green and cut off at the bottom showing her abs. Rebecca's was a deep purple, matching her eyes, and a v-neck, those were the only differences. The shirts were explained by the simple explanation that they were in a band. Lily was pianist/keyboard, Rebecca was on drums, Riley played guitar and all three did vocals. Little did they know they would soon have a rival band.
"Hey, Moony, I'm sorry you couldn't stay the last week." James said.
"Yeah me too. I wish we could have been there for you." Sirius said. Peter nodded. Remus just smiled. "Plan a prank anyone?" he said.
"Remus Joshua Lupin! You are a prefect!" James exclaimed in mock outrage.
"Our little Moony, all grown-up and, playing PRANKS!!" Sirius said wiping a tear from his eye. "Shut it!" Remus said.
"Let's plan." Peter said. The rest of the train ride was uneventful, as was the sorting until..
"Students! I am pleased to tell you we will have a transfer student, Riley GoldenStar who will be joining the 6th years!" The students and professors applauded as Riley stepped up to be sorted showing no fear and total confidence. The hat waited for approximately one second before it bellowed, "GRYFFINDOR!" The Gryffindors all cheered. "GO RILS!" shouted Sirius, James and surprisingly, Remus. Sitting between Rebecca and Lily the three began a whispered conversation. "You'll explain how you found her up in the dorms, right?" Lily asked. Riley just nodded her answer.
"So, GoldenStar, did you rethink the offer I made?" said a silky voice from behind. Riley spun around with a disgusted look.
"If I recall correctly I was disowned. Now get lost, Malfoy."
"The offer still stands."
"Kill me first."
"That can be arranged!" He hissed. Remus stood up. "Malfoy, get back to your table, 30 points from Slytherin for harassing a classmate. Leave." Remus had such a tone of authority that they were all shocked and Malfoy actually left. The other three Marauders looked at him oddly. Riley hated it when people thought she couldn't handle herself, but as it was Moony she'd let it slid. She still glared at him for a second.
"What was that for?"
"He was pissing me off?" Remus shrugged again.
"What was going on at the table with you and a certain Mr. Lupin?" Rebecca asked as they were on the way to their dorms. "Do tell." Lily said poking her.
"Nothing. Quit with the insane poking!" The three reached their dorm, which they had all to themselves. Riley decided to explain about how she met up with her mother. "Ok, I was walking through France, near the mountains. At the bottom of the tallest this woman flies down. She had silvery wings.She said, 'Caterinal? Why aren't you in the palace?' I said. 'I'm sorry. Caterinal's my mother.' The woman her name was Drea, muttered something like 'finally!' and hugged me. Then she flew me up to the palace. It was gorgeous; I've never seen anything like it.anyway.so yeah she was there. in the throne room I guess you'd call it. She was so glad to see me. I finally found where I belonged." Riley trailed off.
"Hold up! You're the Lost princess?!" Lily exclaimed.
"I guess." Riley shrugged. They talked for a few more hours. Riley described everything to them.
"But what was up with Malfoy?" Rebecca whispered. Riley groaned, she had known that this would come up. "Look don't worry about it, Amethyst. You either, Emerald."
"Whatever you say, Sapphire." Rebecca said unconvincingly.
"If he tries anything, I'm kicking some ass!" was all Lily said. They all laughed and then went to bed.
~* Riley was back in her father's house. She woke up...blood was everywhere. The pain in her back was excruciating. Her wings were gone. She'd never fly again. Ever. He was laughing in a corner still holding the bloody knife. *~
She woke up with a start. It was 2:33. It was useless, Riley decided, to try to go back to sleep now. Grabbing her notebook of songs she went down to the common room. There was someone else there though she couldn't tell whom. In that exact moment, she was right behind him, her turned around and for no reason both of them screamed. Two hands shot out each covering the other's mouth. Sirius came bounding down the stairs in Batman boxers with a white t-shirt. Riley pointed to his legs. "MY EYES! MY VIRGIN EYES!" she saw that the other person was Remus, in superman boxers and a dark blue t- shirt.
"Moony! You're dating one of my likable cousins and didn't tell me?" Sirius demanded. Remus blushed. "NO!" People were starting to come down from their dorms to check out what the racket was.
"Padfoot! Couch!" Remus commanded. Sirius dropped and rolled under the couch. There was no other place for Remus and Riley to go so Riley pulled Remus outside the portrait hole. The two of them stood there for a while, not speaking. Sirius opened the portrait hole; He motioned them inside. "Well now. That was close. What were you two doing up so late?"
"Reading." Remus replied holding up a thick novel.
"Going to write." Riley motioned to her songbook.
"And I was going to find Remus, because we have stuff to discuss with the guys." Sirius looked at Remus who nodded and said, "Night, Rile." Going up the stairs. "TOOTLES!" came the sugar-crazed farewell of Sirius. Riley shook her head. 'Strange, strange people.'
The next morning James and Remus were up early in the Great Hall, both reading the Daily Profit equally infuriated.
"I cannot believe that bitch is trying to do this!!!" James half-shouted luckily the hall was empty. Remus shrugged.
"Moony! How can you be so calm?"
"I've had to deal with it my whole life, Prongs." Riley walked in behind them wearing torn jeans (by torn I mean holes everywhere, in the thighs, knees and ankles, front and back) and a black t-shirt saying, "Save the Wolves". She sat down across from them. "Did you two see the Prophet?" She asked.
"Yeah."
"Urgh! I hate what that Umbridge whore is trying to do!" Riley exclaimed. James glanced at her; she never told them her views on werewolves or anything, it just never came up.
"Is that what your shirt is about?" asked Remus.
"Yeah. I'm looking up evidence against those laws she's trying to put out. Do you want to help since we don't have classes today?"
"Of course." Both said.
Sirius woke up in the dorm to find a letter from his mother. None of his "family" owled him since he ran away this summer. It hurt but he didn't really care. He opened the letter.
'Blood Traitor - HA! Read the prophet. Guess your little wolven friend won't be able to do much with his worthless life once these get passed!' As Sirius scanned the article his eyes grew wide. 'Have to see if Moony's ok.' Was the only thought going through his mind as he scrambled out of the room not noticing that he was in just his boxers. He burst through the doors of the Great Hall a few minutes later. "Prongs! Where's Moony? Is he all right?"
"In front of you! Put some clothes on, Pad!" exclaimed Remus.
"THE HORROR!" bellowed Riley. People were looking over interestedly. Many of the females in the hall were drooling. Padfoot looked down. "Well this is fun." He said transfiguring some robes on himself. "Better?"
"Yes!" The four sat eating until -
"RILEY!" Two voices screamed. Lily and Rebecca both very wet stormed in.
"What is wrong with an alarm clock?" demanded Rebecca.
"This amuses me more."
"And this amuses me!" Lily said as she and Rebecca took pillows from behind their backs and hit Riley who conjured up one for defense only of course.
"Here was me thinking they were the mature ones." James muttered.
"Shut it, Potter!" screeched Lily, avoiding being hit with pillows rather nicely.
James decided to take Remus' advice. He didn't ask her out or anything. "If you insist." The three girls zapped the pillows away.
"Oh, Lil, Bec, Remus and James are going to help us out today." Lily glared at James but nodded. "Is that ok?" Riley glanced at Lily.
"Great." Rebecca said.
"I wanna help!" Sirius whined. "Fine." Said everyone. The group of six left to go to the library only Lily and Rebecca led them down to the Room of Requirement.
"Sorry guys, we thought this would be better." Lily explained. They stepped inside the room. It was full of werewolf rights books, and a full copy of the M.O.M constitution and laws. Over in one corner was all the junk food you could imagine. Sirius ran over and tossed everyone some.
"Brain food." He claimed.
"We could've just asked Remus," remarked James. "He is a member of the CA." At the girls blank looks he added, "Chocoholics Anonymous."
"Don't make fun of my condition!" Remus exclaimed. For the reminder of the time they worked, occasionally cracking jokes, and in Lily's case ignoring James.
Sirius threw down his quill. "It's been two hours."
"Really?" Rebecca asked.
Remus looked up. "I think we need a break."
Sirius got a grin on his face. "Let's play truth or dare." Everyone shrugged and got in a circle. "Sirius, truth or dare." Riley started.
"Dare."
"I dare you to put on a pink dress and run into the Slytherin common room screaming that you're a pretty woman." She said grinning as a pink frilly dress was suddenly in the middle of the circle. Sirius reluctantly put it on as the others laughed.
"I will get you back." He said.
"I'm sure." They all went out. Sirius tapped on the door to the Slytherin common room. As soon as it opened he ran inside, did a lap around or two, then stood on a chair and screamed, "I'M A PRETTY WOMAN!" until half of them came down. The group of 6 ran back to the RoR, five of which were laughing their arses off. Sirius spoke up. "Remus, truth or dare?"
'With him asking I'm screwed either way.' He thought. "Dare."
Sirius grinned. "I dare you to dare Rebecca to dare Riley to dare Lily to dare me to dare James."
Remus did so. "Why didn't you just ask James?"
"No fun. Now, James, I dare you to talk Albus into a Halloween ball."
"Done." James said. "Riley truth or dare?"
"Dare."
"Go flirt with Malfoy then beat him up."
"That is so degrading Potter. By the way truth or dare?"
"Dare."
"Come with me and flirt with Snape!" Riley cackled evilly, grabbing his arm and pulling him out. James looked disgusted but went anyway.
"This is gonna be good." Lily said to Rebecca.
"Do I have to?" James pleaded. "I can't flirt with a guy!!"
"Yes, and just do what I do." Riley replied as James groaned.
"Padfoot, you're still in the dress?" Remus observed shrewdly.
Will James flirt with Snape? Will Riley flirt with Malfoy? Will Sirius get out of the dress? Come back for the next chapter. You'll see what happens and there will be some action with Voldemort rising and such. K? Be awesome and review please? haha

"Students! I am pleased to tell you we will have a transfer student, Riley GoldenStar who will be joining the 6th years!" The students and professors applauded as Riley stepped up to be sorted showing no fear and total confidence. The hat waited for approximately one second before it bellowed, "GRYFFINDOR!"

"What is wrong with an alarm clock?" demanded Rebecca.
"This amuses me more."
"And this amuses me!" Lily said as she and Rebecca took pillows from behind their backs and hit Riley who conjured up one for defense only of course.
"Here was me thinking they were the mature ones." James muttered.
"Shut it, Potter!" screeched Lily, avoiding being hit with pillows rather nicely.
James decided to take Remus' advice. He didn't ask her out or anything. "If you insist." The three girls zapped the pillows away.
"Oh, Lil, Bec, Remus and James are going to help us out today." Lily glared at James but nodded. "Is that ok?" Riley glanced at Lily.
"Great." Rebecca said.
"I wanna help!" Sirius whined. "Fine." Said everyone. The group of six left to go to the library only Lily and Rebecca led them down to the Room of Requirement.
"Sorry guys, we thought this would be better." Lily explained. They stepped inside the room. It was full of werewolf rights books, and a full copy of the M.O.M constitution and laws. Over in one corner was all the junk food you could imagine. Sirius ran over and tossed everyone some.
"Brain food." He claimed.
"We could've just asked Remus," remarked James. "He is a member of the CA." At the girls blank looks he added, "Chocoholics Anonymous."
"Don't make fun of my condition!" Remus exclaimed. For the reminder of the time they worked, occasionally cracking jokes, and in Lily's case ignoring James.
Sirius threw down his quill. "It's been two hours."
"Really?" Rebecca asked.
Remus looked up. "I think we need a break."
Sirius got a grin on his face. "Let's play truth or dare." Everyone shrugged and got in a circle. "Sirius, truth or dare." Riley started.
"Dare."
"I dare you to put on a pink dress and run into the Slytherin common room screaming that you're a pretty woman." She said grinning as a pink frilly dress was suddenly in the middle of the circle. Sirius reluctantly put it on as the others laughed.
"I will get you back." He said.
"I'm sure." They all went out. Sirius tapped on the door to the Slytherin common room. As soon as it opened he ran inside, did a lap around or two, then stood on a chair and screamed, "I'M A PRETTY WOMAN!" until half of them came down. The group of 6 ran back to the RoR, five of which were laughing their arses off. Sirius spoke up. "Remus, truth or dare?"
'With him asking I'm screwed either way.' He thought. "Dare."
Sirius grinned. "I dare you to dare Rebecca to dare Riley to dare Lily to dare me to dare James."
Remus did so. "Why didn't you just ask James?"
"No fun. Now, James, I dare you to talk Albus into a Halloween ball."
"Done." James said. "Riley truth or dare?"
"Dare."
"Go flirt with Malfoy then beat him up."
"That is so degrading Potter. By the way truth or dare?"
"Dare."
"Come with me and flirt with Snape!" Riley cackled evilly, grabbing his arm and pulling him out. James looked disgusted but went anyway.
"This is gonna be good." Lily said to Rebecca.
"Do I have to?" James pleaded. "I can't flirt with a guy!!"
"Yes, and just do what I do." Riley replied as James groaned.
"Padfoot, you're still in the dress?" Remus observed shrewdly.
Will James flirt with Snape? Will Riley flirt with Malfoy? Will Sirius get out of the dress? Come back for the next chapter. You'll see what happens and there will be some action with Voldemort rising and such. K? Be awesome and review please? haha
