Chapter 9
Lily was in awe, the first three tables were all normal. But the fourth table, the Slytherin table, was covered in red, gold, yellow and oragne. Miniture lions were scattered around the table. Above the table though was the real shock, there was one large banner, spanning the whole length of the table. The banner said Down with Slytherin! A huge animated lion was eating a very puny looking serpent. Lily grinned, she loved their pranks. Right now the Mauraders were probably hiding from Professor McGonagall, which meant that they would not be able to found. Lily went in search of them anyway. She wanted to talk. She looked everywhere they had ever hidden before, but she just couldnt' find them. Sighing to herself, she thought of one final place where they could be. She trudged down the dungeon stairs and magiked her way into the secret garden. No one here she thought to herself. She was about to turn around when the far wall caught her eye. It was rippling slightly. The entrance to HER secret garden was rippling. She walked towards it and glided through the entrance.They they were, all four of them. Sirius had stripped down to black, silky boxers and was tanning on a lounge chair, Remus was studying for a D.A.D.A. test at a table and chair that he had conjured up, Peter was staring at the Koi in the pond, and James was actually reading! The boys hadn't noticed her entrance, Sirius' dark glasses were probably preventing him from seeing anything.
So, James, what book are you reading? she asked casually. The boys jumped up, absolutly petrified.
Damn Lily, don't do that! cried Sirius as he pulled the glasses of his face. God, you could scare a man to death, you could.
She said with a little laugh.
What, are saying that I'm not a man? Lily ignored the question and looked over at James.
So, what ARE you reading? She asked him.
The Two Towers, actually. he replied with a smug grin on his face. It's wierd how some muggle writers have a nearly right perspective on things. They all knew that their friend Montreal had elfen blood in her. It allowed her to hear really well.
So, Lils, did you enjoy our prank? asked Remus.
Yhea, it was fantastic! I really loved the banner, nice touch you know. But it was very unlike you though. You guys usually do really mean pranks. I'm really proud that you guys didn't do anything horrible.
Oh, Lily, we did do something horrible, we really did. In fact, I think we'll have to risk detention, because I have got to see it! Sirius replied with a grin. He stood up and exited through the wall. James walked towards Lily.
James, why do you do this? I can't even have you for one night, because you're either in detention from the pranks, or doing them! I just want one night, you and me! Lily pleaded wrapping her arms around his neck and messing up his already untidy hair.
C'mon angel, you can have tonight! You can have all of tonight. He said smling and pulling her closer to him. They leaned in and kissed softly. James pulled away first. Just after I see this! and he pushed her away and ran through the wall. Lily stood there watching after him. She shook her head and then followd after him.
She followed them to the Great hall, there was no longer a crowd around the door instead everyone was sitting down, including the Slyrithens. Their table was still red and gold, but the golden lions and placesettings had been moved to the Gryffindor table. The banner however was still shimmering above the table, and the slytherins were still looking very moody. They kept shooting glances at the Gryffindor table, some using rude hand gestures when any Gryffindor looked at them. Suddenly the golden banner above the table began to change its words. James and the rest of the mauruders looked at each other and smiled.
YOU CALL OUR FRIENDS MUDBLOODS it said at first, the whole great hall was now watching the sign as it slowly changed again. BUT YOU ARE THE REAL MUDBLOODS, YOU FILTHY PIGS Then all of sudden out of nowhere, mud began pouring from the ceiling showering the slytherins. All the students in the great hall stood up and clapped as the Mauraders climbed on top of a table and started singing We're number one, we're number one! Even a few of the teachers were chortling into their goblets, including Professor Dumbledore. Professor McGonagal stood up, a slight smile playing at her lips. She tapped on her goblet and the houses became quiet.
I'm sorry slyrtherins, but you will have to wait for my return to get the mud off. Maurauders, please follow me. She walked down the aisle past the Gryffindor students. Remus, Sirius, James, and Peter climbed of the table and followed her. People began clapping for them again as they made their way out of the hall. Just as Prof. McGonagal exited the four boys stopped, and turned to look up at the sign. It was slowly changing again. HAHAHA SNIVELLUS SNAPE, YOU SUCK!!! The boys rose their hands in triumph and bowed, and then left the hall. Just as Snape shouted.YOU FUCKING BASTARDS!
Lily looked around the hall and saw Professor Dumbledore motioning to her. She briskly walked up the aisle to the grand chair where Professor Dumbledore sat.
I have talked it over with Professor McGonagal and we have decided to allow you to do the fifth-year up, unsuperives talent show. However, it cannont be held in the great hall, and it cannot have any stripping down to undergarments. Understand Lily?
Lily nodded her head vigoursly. Now you will need to have it done by Christmas, okay? Please form a commitee, then you can run dates by me and hurry up and get it set up.
Wonderful! This will be really great! And she scampered out of the hall to find her friends.
She wandered up to the Gryffindor common room and immediatly saw Arabella, Montreal, Toni and Elisabeth sitting on the couches in front of the fire talking.
Guess what guys! I've got the most amazing news! The girls turned and looked at her waiting for her exciting news.
Professor Dumbledore has given us permission to have a, get this, UN supervised, FIFTH YEAR UP talent show. The girls' mouths dropped open.
You're joking! Oh my God, you're joking! Cried Arabella.
Nope, I swear to God! But I need a commitee, and we need to have had it by by December 25. So, i can count you guys in on the committee, right? The girls nodded.
We're gonna have a meeting tonight, in the common room, probably around 6 or 7. I'm gonna go talk to the Ravenclaws now. See ya in a bit. She called as she turned around and headed out of the common room. She made her way down to the Ravenclaw common room, she bumped into Kelsey on the way, and informed her of the meeting.
Hey, you'll get to see Remus if he isn't in detention! She called as she walked away, Kelsey blused a deep shade of crimson. Finally she got to the Ravenclaw common room and whispered the password. She stepped in to the room and everyone glance up at her. Lindsey and Mary motioned her over to them, she walked across the room and sat down on a blue overstuffed chair.
You'll never believe this, guys she said her eyes glinting excitedly, We are allowed to do a fifth year up, unsupervised talent show! Lindseys mouth graced the floor. Be in Gryffindor common room at 6:00, kay? The girls nodded and Lily exited the Ravenclaw common room.
