Last chapter ending: The weeks past quickly, and soon it was the last day before 6th year.

'Ooh... fun... 6th year...' Lily mumbled sarcastically.

'HEY! It's not THAT Bad!' Becka objected.

'That's only cause you'll get to see your BOYFRIEND!' Frances exclaimed.

'Leave Guy outta this!!!' Becka cried, and a fight erupted, evolving into a pillow battle, and barrels of laughter.

'Maybe 6th year won't be SO bad...' Lily thought quietly.

Chapter 24: 6th year trials

Finally, the big day came, and the marauders were totally not ready for it.

'ARGH! We've gotta go in 2 hours! AND I CAN'T FIND MY BROOM!!!!!!' Sirius stormed angrily around his house, much to his parent's horror.

'SIRIUS! CALM DOWN!'

*~+~*

'Where's my wand?!?!' James exclaimed, shocking his parents.

'Around here somewhere... in this bomb site you call a bedroom...' Mrs. Potter stated plainly.

'WELL HELP ME FIND IT! DAMNIT!!!'

'James! Language!'

*~+~*

'Peter, Don't disappoint the family this year... DO WHAT WE TOLD YOU! STUDY!' Mrs. Pettigrew Growled.

'Yes mother...' Peter mumbled, avoiding eye contact. He'd get her... the filthy muggle...

*~+~*

'Try hard this year Remie!' Mrs. Lupin hugged her son proudly...

Guy got up that morning, and smiled as he looked out his window.

'What a Beautiful, Wonderful world... Back to school today... Back with my friends, Shannon... Levi... Paul... Milsie (A/N Hey! He needs friends! [Happy now Anika?!] =P) and my wonderful Girlfriend... Becka...'

Guy turned, and looked around his spacious room. The green walls, the unmade, pine bed, and his mahogany desk.

But it was the two things sparkling on his desk that he was most proud of...

The head boy badge and...

'Wizarding Idol?! WTF?' James overheard his parents chatting with Sirius'.

'A group of Wizards looking for the next pop star of the magical world, and, they're coming to Hogwarts for auditions!' Mr. Potter exclaimed happily.

'Cool...' Sirius and James looked at each other, smiling.

'I don't like that...' Mrs. Potter mumbled to Mrs. Black.

'Becka!' Guy ran over, pulled his trolley behind him.

'Guy!' Becka ran into his arms, and the two hugged.

'How are you?' Becka smiled up.

'I'm great! Guess what?!' Guy exclaimed, ecstatically.

'What?'

'I'm head boy!'

'Oh Guy! That's FANTASTIC! I'm so proud of you!'

'Guys... hate to spoil this moment, but We gotta go...' Lily and Frances butted in.

'Oh... Come on Guy!' And the two set off onto the train, loading their bags, and walking into the carriage, each arm around the other's waist (Becka and Guy ONLY)

'Mind if we sit here?' The marauders slid the door open, and Frances nodded. Sirius smiled, but it soon faltered as he noticed Becka snuggling up to Guy in the corner.

'I gotta use the bathroom...' and Sirius stormed out.

'What's his problem?'

Soon, the train arrived at Hogsmeade Station, and Becka and Guy remained joined at the hip. They boarded the horseless carriages, and Sirius still remained silent, staring at the couple.

'Yo man... stop starin' ' James mumbled to his friend.

'Fine.' Sirius looked out the window.

James shook his head.

'Whatever...'

Oh, you may not think I'm pretty, but what you just don't see, is that I'm smarter than any hat, that you will ever see.

Unite inside the cold school walls, as the evil rises, and as good falls, the dark lord will be strong, you see, so take the advice, and listen to me.

The evil that rises is sinister, nothing can defeat him, nothing more, nothing less... no simple minister can defeat the thing which we all dread, the end cannot hold him, nor can death.

Unite together, or all shall fall... now, let us focus, inside these walls.

The sorting hat can help you out, and you should place me on you head, me friendly voice, will lead you away from which we dread.

There's nothing deep inside your head, the sorting hat can't see, so put me on! Try me out, and I'll tell you, where you all should be.

'Interesting song...' Guy mumbled to Becka as the first 1st year approached the hat.

Becka nodded, and placed her head on Guy's shoulder, who turned, and kissed the top.

'ANDERSON, Leslie...'
