Last Chapter ending: 'OK! You will be placed in pairs... of the Boy/girl variety... The people shall be from you cabin.' Professor McGonagall exclaimed over the noise. All fell quiet and she proceeded to pair people off.
"Please not Stephanie... Please!" James thought to himself.
"Please not James... Please not James!" Lily begged her mind. 'Lily Evans you are with...'
~ * ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ * ~
Chapter 12: Teen Ranch
Lily Evans... you are paired with... Sirius Black,' (A/N Mwhahahahahahahaa!)
'Becka Stockaz, you are with James Potter, Frances Liu, with Severus Snape...' Snape looked like all his Christmases had come at once...
'Arabella Figg, you are with Jason Bundaberg, Christina Papuan, with Matt Ryan, Stephanie Killate, You are with Remus Lupin,' Remus looked crestfallen.
'If I have called you, or your partner out, you can board the 'bus', which is the mode of muggle transport we are using a this camp...' Professor McGonagall exclaimed, so the Angels, and the Marauders boarded.
' I'm Not with James!!!' Lily exclaimed happily as the Angels grabbed the back seat...
'Mind if we sit here?' Remus, James and Sirius grinned as they sat in the seats surrounding the back.
'So... I guess I'll be seeing a lot more of you over the next week eh Becka?' James grinned.
'Er... yeah...'
~ * ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ * ~
'Ten Bottles of Beer on the wall! Ten Bottles of Beer! You... take one down! Pass it around; there'll be 9 bottles of beer on the wall! 9 bottles of beer on the wall! 9 bottles of beer.' The marauders lead the rowdy chorus of the song, (Hey, we used to sing this all the time when we went on camps!)
Finally, the chorus died to 1 bottle of beer, and the Angels seized this opportunity to change the song...
Becka: 'This is the song that never ends
Lily: [never ends]
Frances: It just goes on and on, my friends,
Lily: [Yes it does]
Everyone: Some people, Started singing it not knowing what it was! And they'll continue singing it forever just because this is the...' Becka, Frances and Lily sung, soon joined by the rest of the fifth year students.
This drove McGonagall over the edge.
'ALL RIGHT! THAT'S QUITE ABOUT ENOUGH OF THE SONG THAT NEVER ENDS! PLEASE! SIT QUIETLY AND TALK AMONGST YOURSELVES!!!' She cried, and the students fell silent.
'Thank you,'

Once they had arrived, and dressed in muggle clothes, the girls grabbed their bags, and headed off to their cabin... 28.
Once they got in, Becka chose one of the top bunks, Frances got the one parallel, Lily chose the one on the same side as Becka, and they left the last top bunk open to who wanted it...
The marauders came running in, and looked around.
'Swanky...' Sirius said, as he chose a bunk... underneath Becka.
'Cool...' Remus hopped in the one opposite Sirius, and under Frances. 'Eh...' James swung into the bunk below Lily.
'So... those two bunks are open to Snivellus and Stephanie...' Sirius stated blandly.
James and Sirius got something out of their bags, and headed to the bunks. Becka and Lily jumped off theirs, and ran in front of the two marauders.
'No! No pranking them before they even get to the cabin!' Lily exclaimed.
'How would you like it if we did that to you?' Becka asked.
Sirius put on a puppy face.
'Aww... pwease?'
'Sirius! No!' Becka whined.
'But it's only one small prank...'
'Sirius... please don't... for me?' Sirius frowned, but then gave up, and kissed Becka instead.
'Yay! I win!'
'Oh great... I'm in a cabin with the 'love birds'. Do try to keep your make out sessions when I'm not here,' Snape said, scathingly.
'Why hello Snivellus. How are you today?' Sirius asked in a very gentlemanly like way.
'Why is it any of your business?' Snape spat.
' Well... because unlike you Slytherins, we Gryffindors 'give-a-shit',' James replied.
Stephanie walked timidly into the dormitory. She raced past the boys, and grabbed the lower bunk. She quickly unpacked, and ran out of the cabin again.
'Oh look Potter, another one of your broken hearted girls... tough luck...' Snape smirked.
'Oh...'
'Shut up Snivellus,' The angels exclaimed.
The marauders looked around, and saw the girls looking less than impressed.
Snape stopped, and quickly unpacked his things. He wanted to spend the least amount of time possible in the cabin, with the marauders...
~ * ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ * ~
After unpacking, the students were told to go with their cabins, and they would be put into groups.
'Cabin Rable-rouser, you are with Cabin superior.' Professor McGonagall announced.
'Christina!' The girls mumbled happily.
'You will be come up with a group name...' The professor continued.
'Phoenix...' James mumbled and the group agreed.
'Phoenix...' Lily stated.
'Group Phoenix... your first activity is... Archery, please follow the leader, Gail,'
~ * ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ * ~
Godric's angels turned out to be natural archers. The marauders, on the other hand, sucked at archery. Becka got 5 bulls-eyes before she realised James was having problems.
'Here,' She took his bow and showed him the correct stance. 'Thanks...' James blushed.
'No Problemo!' And Becka shot a bulls-eye.
'Oooh Yeah! Go me!' Becka did a little victory dance, little realizing 5 pairs of eyes were on her.
~ * ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ * ~
Lily grinned as Sirius got his arrow stuck in the board... yet again...
'Sirius! Lighter twang!' Lily exclaimed as she ran over to help him.
When they got the arrow out, Lily looked over and saw Becka shoot her bulls- eye, and do a little victory dance. She also noticed Lucius Malfoy, Severus Snape and Matt Ryan staring at Becka.
'Freaks...' Lily mumbled to herself, and continued shooting.
~ * ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ * ~
Frances was pissed as hell that she had been paired with Snape, because he was always trying to sit too close to her, to touch her in ways that made her feel uncomfortable... but then again, if Snivellus touched anyone, if made them uncomfortable.
It was almost as if he liked her.
Frances shook the thought out of her head, and continued to arch.
'Another bulls-eye...' Frances' grin faltered as she noticed Severus staring at her best friend, he sister, Becka, and worse, it wasn't a 'she's weird' stare... it was a love stare.
'Like you have a chance...' Frances spat. Snape looked up at her,
'Why... whatever do you mean?'
'She means that Becka is taken... T-A-K-E-N,' Lily interrupted.
'Stay out of this... mudblood!' Snape spat angrily. Frances slapped him, and growled: ' Don't you DARE call lily that you... Freak!'
And miraculously... the activity was over...'
~ * ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ * ~
Free time was next, and the Angels went to the games room.
'Hey Lils... Verse you in Table Tennis?' Arabella asked cheerily.
'Nah... I suck... Play Christina...' Lily replied. Arabella and Christina played, whilst Lily, Frances and Becka watched.
'Should we tell her?' Frances asked Lily.
'She has a right to know...'
'Yeah...'
'Becka...' Lily started as Becka turned. 'Yeah?'
Lily took a deep breath and launched in.
'Severus Snape has a crush on you...'
Becka's face fell.
'EW! EW! EW! EW! EW! EEEEEWWWWWW!!!' Becka jumped up and started brushing imaginary dirt off her arms.
'Argh! The dirt's not coming off!!' She exclaimed, as Arabella and Christina stopped to watch the display.
'What?' Christina looked at Becka puzzled.
'Severus Snape has a crush on her...' Lily stated, as Christina nodded her head.
'Gross...'
~ * ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ * ~
The days rolled by, and soon it was the third day into the camp. During the night activities, professor McGonagall made an announcement.
'Students... to mark our last night here, in two days, we shall be having a talent show. Winner gets $25 muggle money, or 25 galleons... your choice. Groups are up to 6 people, and you can act, sing, dance, or play music. It not is compulsory, but we would highly recommend that you do compete, so please get into your groups, and let me know who they are... And the groups can do 2 acts...'
Lily looked around, to see that her best friends were beckoning her toward the marauders. (a/n please note that because I detest peter in ways unimaginable to the untrained eye, so I have excluded him fro the story in most areas... unless needed, so the marauders are just James, Sirius and Remus, unless stated otherwise... thank you...)
'The 3 out us can do like, a singing thing, and you girls can do like a dance in the background...' Sirius suggested.
'Yeah... I can't be bothered to come up with anything more...' Lily mumbled.
'Oh, and cause we can do two acts... the six of us could sing another song...'
'Oooh! More to life!!' Becka exclaimed quietly.
'Yeah... Come on... let's go tell McGonagall...'
~ * ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ * ~
After registering, the group sat down, and started to come up with ideas for the talent quest.
'Ok... how about we sing Elvis?' Remus suggested.
'Such as?' James asked. 'Er... Rubbernecking?' Sirius suggested.
'Yeah...' Remus and James nodded.
'Well... has a good rhythm so we can dance to it...' Becka and Lily nodded.
'Cool... so we do rubbernecking and More to life...'
~ * ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ * ~
The group practiced over and over in free time, until finally, they perfected their act.
Frances, Becka and Lily were working on costume when the boys practiced.
'Ok... James is wearing Jeans and a leather jacket, with a black button up shirt...' Lily lay out his costume.
'Sirius is wearing the same as James...' Becka lay out Sirius' costume.
'And Remus is wearing the exact same!' Frances lay his costume.
'Cool! Now to ours...'
~ * ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ * ~
after and age... and help from the marauders, the girls came up with a costume idea.
James and Sirius suggested bralette tops, with some organza material hanging off them to make a top, and Long, white sarong-like skirts, and white platform slip-ons.
The girls... who had no better ideas... agreed.
'But no organza...' Frances said.
'Why?' Becka and Lily asked.
'Cause if we make the boys' in the audience mouths water, then we have a better chance of winning!'
'Good point...'
~ * ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ * ~
The day of the concert, the group had their last dress rehearsal, and eagerly awaited the talent quest.
'Stop, look and Listen, Baby, that's my philosophy... it's called rubberneckin' baby and that's alright with me...' James sang gleefully.
Sirius, who was up the back on the drum kit, was looking around at the girls dancing.
"God... she's so bloody beautiful..." He thought happily when he noticed Becka dancing with her blonde hair cascading down her back. He looked over at Lily, and noticed the way she was looking at James... was it just him, or was there more in her emerald green eyes?
'Yeah, yeah, yeah!' James ended the song.
'Whoa! That was fun! Can't wait until tonight!!'
Becka walked over and took the mike, whilst James retuned his guitar, and the other girls walked over to their instruments. Sirius still did drum kit, James, electric guitar, Remus, backup guitar, Lily, base guitar and back-up vocals, and Frances backed Becka's vocals with lily.
'There's gotta be more to life...' Becka sang.
~+~
After they had finished, Becka turned around happily to her friends, and smiled.
'We can, and so will win this thing!'
~ * ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ * ~
'Attention students! The talent show is about to begin. First, we have Christina Papuan and Matt Ryan in 'Romeo and Juliet,'
'Romeo, Romeo, where for art thou Romeo?' Christina looked over her balcony.
~ * ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ * ~
They whizzed through the other acts, and the Marauders soon heard what they wanted.
'Next up... The Marauders and Godric's Angels with two songs for our entertainment. Rubberneckin' and More to life!'
The crowd screamed as the boys walked on, and all the boys catwhistled when the Angels took their positions.
Sirius started with a beat, and the girls started their dance when Remus and James started to play.
~ * ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ * ~
'Stop... Look... and Listen... hey-hey-hey!' James sang, nearing the end of the song.
Sure as hell, when the girls looked down, the majority of the boys were drooling...
'Stop!'
The crowd cheered, and everyone stood for an encore.
Becka grinned, and took the mike, whilst they all started playing behind her.
'Yeah, yeah... oooh!'
~ * ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ * ~
The six bowed, and ran off the stage.
'Oh my god! Did you see their faces?! The boys were drooling a new lake at their feet, and the girls... I swear, if looks could kill... they were so jealous of us! But they'll vote for the marauders, anyway!' Lily exclaimed happily as they took their seats next to Christina and Arabella.
'That was so good!' Arabella exclaimed happily.
'Yeah! Where did you guys learn to sing and dance like that?' Christina asked.
'Around... come on, let's watch the poor people following us...' Frances said, pointing as the poor Hufflepuff on stage.
'He is insane... there is no way we can set him free...'
At that moment, who should burst onto their set, but Amos Diggory, as part of their group.
'Come... my precious...'
~ * ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ * ~
'And the winner is...' Professor McGonagall built up... 'The Marauders and Godric's angels!!!'
'Told ya!' Becka said as the 6 went onto the stage to collect their prize.
'$25 each!' McGonagall smiled as she handed them their prize.
'Yeah! Go us!!!' James and Sirius exclaimed, as the professor continued.
'We also have received a special request from the audience... could we please have an encore performance?'
'Sure...' James grinned, and they ran off to get their gear.
'Stop, look and listen baby, that's my philosophy... it's called rubberneckin'
~ * ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ * ~
The next morning, the girls woke up, and grinned. Last night had been fun...
'Come on... Breakfast duty...' Lily groaned.
'No fair...' Frances rolled over, and pretended not to notice.
'Frances... if we have to do it... you have to do it...' Becka threw her pillow over at her friend.
'Aw...'
~ * ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ * ~
'STUDENTS! I would like to commend you on your behaviour this week, and congratulate last night's winners of the talent quest...' Professor McGonagall smiled at the marauders and Godric's angels.
'Please go back to your cabins and pack your bags... We will be returning to Hogwarts for a few hours, before setting off on the next camp. Meet back here for lunch, and we shall depart...'
~ * ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ * ~
At Lunch, the girls grinned, due to the fact that the boys from group phoenix had to prepare lunch...
'Mmm... chicken wraps...' Lily smiled as she took a bite.
'You may have seconds...' James and Sirius grinned happily when Remus pointed this out.
~+~
Soon, Lunch was over, and the 5th years grabbed their bags, and jumped on the bus. Becka, Lily, Frances, Arabella and Christina grabbed the back seat, and the marauders sat around them... again...
'That was fun...' Becka smiled as a rowdy chorus started up on the bus.
'Yeah... hey... wanna listen to so-fresh?' Frances handed Becka a headphone, and the two started listening.
'If I go Crazy then will you still call me superman?' Becka sang.
'If I'm alive and well will you be there-a holdin' my hand...' Frances continued.
Lily tapped the two on the shoulder, and they paused the CD.
'The driver's putting on the radio... Listen...' Lily whispered as the crowd died down.
'Oh My god...'
'Stop, look and listen Babe that's my philosophy... It's called rubberneckin' babe and that's alright with me...' The speakers blared, and all of 5th year turned to the Angels and the marauders.
'You ready?' James and Sirius grinned at the girls.
'Stop... Look... and listen... hey-hey-hey!'
~ * ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ * ~
The song ended, and the 8 up the back grinned. But, that was shortly over, as the next song blared through.
'There's gotta be more to life...' Becka sang along with Lily and Frances.
~+~
Back at Hogwarts, the whole castle was preparing for the 5th years to return.
'They will return for 4 hours to repack and wash their clothing, they will depart again...' Professor Dumbledore explained to Professor Flitwick.
'Alright... I'll have the house elves ready for the load of washing they will be getting, and I'll help with the house charms...' Both professors nodded, and went their separate ways.
~+~
The 5th years walked happily into the hall talking and laughing.
'nice to be back... even if it's only for 4 hours...' Lily smiled to her friends.
'Yeah...' Becka and Frances agreed.
The girls ran up to their dorm, and had nice, warm showers. They then changed into clean jeans and 3/4 tops, with platform slip-on's.
'Cool... now let's go down to the library... or even just wander around the castle...' Lily grinned, and the five girls left their dorm looking more beautiful then when they had walked in.
~ * ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ * ~
They walked down the stairs, and all the mouths of the boys in the room dropped their jaws as the five babes entered the common room.
'Hey boys...' Christina grinned at the 5th years and up...
Arabella and Christina started flirting with the boys in sight, whilst Frances, Becka and Lily left the common room and went for a 'walk' around the castle.
Unfortunately, they ran into Amos and his new 'flavour', Alison Lockhart, in the corridor.
'Please... I thought you'd have more sense Alison... this guy beats his girls before they leave him!' Becka exclaimed.
'You were different... you were cheating on him!' Alison retorted, as she flung her arms around his shoulders.
'Besides... he cares about me...' She smiled at him.
The girls looked disgusted, and kept walking.
'Slut...'
~ * ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ * ~
James, Sirius and Remus also went for a 'walk' around the castle, and had a talk.
'You know Anika Moore from Slytherin?' James asked Sirius.
'Yeah?'
'She's rounded up more people for the 'James potter fan club' and the 'Sirius black fan club' James said, disgusted.
'Yeah... I heard that Jessica Morte, from Gryffindor, Bhagya Pearl from Slytherin, Alison Lockhart, from Slytherin, Veronica Sha from Ravenclaw and Monique De-Silva from Slytherin were rounded up...' Remus stated.
'Sick... sick... people...'
~ * ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ * ~
'People... it's time we got our boys back. Those bitches, Becka Stockaz, and lily Evans don't deserve good men like James and Sirius...' Anika cried to her posse.
'Yeah! I nearly had James before he noticed Evans!' Alison Lockhart exclaimed angrily.
'Sirius would have been mine!' Bhagya (A/N pronounced B-aa-g-yaa) Tossed her hair over her shoulder.
'People... soon they will be ours... now... let's come up with a plan... we split them up with the least interested of our group, and we'll get them back on the playing field...'
~ * ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ * ~
Mwhahahahahaa! Long chapter... but I'm still evil...
Will the J.P.F.C or the S.B.F.C manage to split the cute couples up, or will the love prevail?
Tune in next time for...
The unexpected... or so they think...

'Mind if we sit here?' Remus, James and Sirius grinned as they sat in the seats surrounding the back.
'So... I guess I'll be seeing a lot more of you over the next week eh Becka?' James grinned.
'Er... yeah...'
~ * ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ * ~

Groups are up to 6 people, and you can act, sing, dance, or play music. It not is compulsory, but we would highly recommend that you do compete, so please get into your groups, and let me know who they are... And the groups can do 2 acts...'
Lily looked around, to see that her best friends were beckoning her toward the marauders. (a/n please note that because I detest peter in ways unimaginable to the untrained eye, so I have excluded him fro the story in most areas... unless needed, so the marauders are just James, Sirius and Remus, unless stated otherwise... thank you...)
'The 3 out us can do like, a singing thing, and you girls can do like a dance in the background...' Sirius suggested.
'Yeah... I can't be bothered to come up with anything more...' Lily mumbled.
'Oh, and cause we can do two acts... the six of us could sing another song...'
'Oooh! More to life!!' Becka exclaimed quietly.
'Yeah... Come on... let's go tell McGonagall...'
~ * ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ * ~
After registering, the group sat down, and started to come up with ideas for the talent quest.
'Ok... how about we sing Elvis?' Remus suggested.
'Such as?' James asked. 'Er... Rubbernecking?' Sirius suggested.
'Yeah...' Remus and James nodded.
'Well... has a good rhythm so we can dance to it...' Becka and Lily nodded.
'Cool... so we do rubbernecking and More to life...'
~ * ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ * ~
The group practiced over and over in free time, until finally, they perfected their act.
Frances, Becka and Lily were working on costume when the boys practiced.
'Ok... James is wearing Jeans and a leather jacket, with a black button up shirt...' Lily lay out his costume.
'Sirius is wearing the same as James...' Becka lay out Sirius' costume.
'And Remus is wearing the exact same!' Frances lay his costume.
'Cool! Now to ours...'
~ * ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ * ~
after and age... and help from the marauders, the girls came up with a costume idea.
James and Sirius suggested bralette tops, with some organza material hanging off them to make a top, and Long, white sarong-like skirts, and white platform slip-ons.
The girls... who had no better ideas... agreed.
'But no organza...' Frances said.
'Why?' Becka and Lily asked.
'Cause if we make the boys' in the audience mouths water, then we have a better chance of winning!'
'Good point...'
~ * ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ * ~
The day of the concert, the group had their last dress rehearsal, and eagerly awaited the talent quest.
'Stop, look and Listen, Baby, that's my philosophy... it's called rubberneckin' baby and that's alright with me...' James sang gleefully.
Sirius, who was up the back on the drum kit, was looking around at the girls dancing.
"God... she's so bloody beautiful..." He thought happily when he noticed Becka dancing with her blonde hair cascading down her back. He looked over at Lily, and noticed the way she was looking at James... was it just him, or was there more in her emerald green eyes?
'Yeah, yeah, yeah!' James ended the song.
'Whoa! That was fun! Can't wait until tonight!!'
Becka walked over and took the mike, whilst James retuned his guitar, and the other girls walked over to their instruments. Sirius still did drum kit, James, electric guitar, Remus, backup guitar, Lily, base guitar and back-up vocals, and Frances backed Becka's vocals with lily.
'There's gotta be more to life...' Becka sang.
~+~
After they had finished, Becka turned around happily to her friends, and smiled.
'We can, and so will win this thing!'
~ * ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ * ~
'Attention students! The talent show is about to begin. First, we have Christina Papuan and Matt Ryan in 'Romeo and Juliet,'
'Romeo, Romeo, where for art thou Romeo?' Christina looked over her balcony.
~ * ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ * ~
They whizzed through the other acts, and the Marauders soon heard what they wanted.
'Next up... The Marauders and Godric's Angels with two songs for our entertainment. Rubberneckin' and More to life!'
The crowd screamed as the boys walked on, and all the boys catwhistled when the Angels took their positions.
Sirius started with a beat, and the girls started their dance when Remus and James started to play.
~ * ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ * ~
'Stop... Look... and Listen... hey-hey-hey!' James sang, nearing the end of the song.
Sure as hell, when the girls looked down, the majority of the boys were drooling...
'Stop!'
The crowd cheered, and everyone stood for an encore.
Becka grinned, and took the mike, whilst they all started playing behind her.
'Yeah, yeah... oooh!'
~ * ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ * ~
The six bowed, and ran off the stage.
'Oh my god! Did you see their faces?! The boys were drooling a new lake at their feet, and the girls... I swear, if looks could kill... they were so jealous of us! But they'll vote for the marauders, anyway!' Lily exclaimed happily as they took their seats next to Christina and Arabella.
'That was so good!' Arabella exclaimed happily.
'Yeah! Where did you guys learn to sing and dance like that?' Christina asked.
'Around... come on, let's watch the poor people following us...' Frances said, pointing as the poor Hufflepuff on stage.
'He is insane... there is no way we can set him free...'
At that moment, who should burst onto their set, but Amos Diggory, as part of their group.
'Come... my precious...'
~ * ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ * ~
'And the winner is...' Professor McGonagall built up... 'The Marauders and Godric's angels!!!'
'Told ya!' Becka said as the 6 went onto the stage to collect their prize.
'$25 each!' McGonagall smiled as she handed them their prize.
'Yeah! Go us!!!' James and Sirius exclaimed, as the professor continued.
'We also have received a special request from the audience... could we please have an encore performance?'
'Sure...' James grinned, and they ran off to get their gear.
'Stop, look and listen baby, that's my philosophy... it's called rubberneckin'
~ * ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ * ~
The next morning, the girls woke up, and grinned. Last night had been fun...
'Come on... Breakfast duty...' Lily groaned.
'No fair...' Frances rolled over, and pretended not to notice.
'Frances... if we have to do it... you have to do it...' Becka threw her pillow over at her friend.
'Aw...'
~ * ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ * ~
'STUDENTS! I would like to commend you on your behaviour this week, and congratulate last night's winners of the talent quest...' Professor McGonagall smiled at the marauders and Godric's angels.
'Please go back to your cabins and pack your bags... We will be returning to Hogwarts for a few hours, before setting off on the next camp. Meet back here for lunch, and we shall depart...'
~ * ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ * ~
At Lunch, the girls grinned, due to the fact that the boys from group phoenix had to prepare lunch...
'Mmm... chicken wraps...' Lily smiled as she took a bite.
'You may have seconds...' James and Sirius grinned happily when Remus pointed this out.
~+~
Soon, Lunch was over, and the 5th years grabbed their bags, and jumped on the bus. Becka, Lily, Frances, Arabella and Christina grabbed the back seat, and the marauders sat around them... again...
'That was fun...' Becka smiled as a rowdy chorus started up on the bus.
'Yeah... hey... wanna listen to so-fresh?' Frances handed Becka a headphone, and the two started listening.
'If I go Crazy then will you still call me superman?' Becka sang.
'If I'm alive and well will you be there-a holdin' my hand...' Frances continued.
Lily tapped the two on the shoulder, and they paused the CD.
'The driver's putting on the radio... Listen...' Lily whispered as the crowd died down.
'Oh My god...'
'Stop, look and listen Babe that's my philosophy... It's called rubberneckin' babe and that's alright with me...' The speakers blared, and all of 5th year turned to the Angels and the marauders.
'You ready?' James and Sirius grinned at the girls.
'Stop... Look... and listen... hey-hey-hey!'
~ * ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ * ~
The song ended, and the 8 up the back grinned. But, that was shortly over, as the next song blared through.
'There's gotta be more to life...' Becka sang along with Lily and Frances.
~+~
Back at Hogwarts, the whole castle was preparing for the 5th years to return.
'They will return for 4 hours to repack and wash their clothing, they will depart again...' Professor Dumbledore explained to Professor Flitwick.
'Alright... I'll have the house elves ready for the load of washing they will be getting, and I'll help with the house charms...' Both professors nodded, and went their separate ways.
~+~
The 5th years walked happily into the hall talking and laughing.
'nice to be back... even if it's only for 4 hours...' Lily smiled to her friends.
'Yeah...' Becka and Frances agreed.
The girls ran up to their dorm, and had nice, warm showers. They then changed into clean jeans and 3/4 tops, with platform slip-on's.
'Cool... now let's go down to the library... or even just wander around the castle...' Lily grinned, and the five girls left their dorm looking more beautiful then when they had walked in.
~ * ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ * ~
They walked down the stairs, and all the mouths of the boys in the room dropped their jaws as the five babes entered the common room.
'Hey boys...' Christina grinned at the 5th years and up...
Arabella and Christina started flirting with the boys in sight, whilst Frances, Becka and Lily left the common room and went for a 'walk' around the castle.
Unfortunately, they ran into Amos and his new 'flavour', Alison Lockhart, in the corridor.
'Please... I thought you'd have more sense Alison... this guy beats his girls before they leave him!' Becka exclaimed.
'You were different... you were cheating on him!' Alison retorted, as she flung her arms around his shoulders.
'Besides... he cares about me...' She smiled at him.
The girls looked disgusted, and kept walking.
'Slut...'
~ * ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ * ~
James, Sirius and Remus also went for a 'walk' around the castle, and had a talk.
'You know Anika Moore from Slytherin?' James asked Sirius.
'Yeah?'
'She's rounded up more people for the 'James potter fan club' and the 'Sirius black fan club' James said, disgusted.
'Yeah... I heard that Jessica Morte, from Gryffindor, Bhagya Pearl from Slytherin, Alison Lockhart, from Slytherin, Veronica Sha from Ravenclaw and Monique De-Silva from Slytherin were rounded up...' Remus stated.
'Sick... sick... people...'
~ * ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ * ~
'People... it's time we got our boys back. Those bitches, Becka Stockaz, and lily Evans don't deserve good men like James and Sirius...' Anika cried to her posse.
'Yeah! I nearly had James before he noticed Evans!' Alison Lockhart exclaimed angrily.
'Sirius would have been mine!' Bhagya (A/N pronounced B-aa-g-yaa) Tossed her hair over her shoulder.
'People... soon they will be ours... now... let's come up with a plan... we split them up with the least interested of our group, and we'll get them back on the playing field...'
~ * ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ ** ~ * ~
