James Potter and the Insanity of the Marauders

Chapter Four: Wet and Furious

By: Felicia Rocks

As the train was coming to a stop, the Marauders were trying as hard as they could to brush all of the food off of their robes.

"You two," Remus said pointing to Sirius and James, are the biggest idiots alive."

"Yea," Peter agreed," way to start a food fight when we just put on our NEW robes."

"Oh, and like you weren't throwing Gum at us!" James said defensively.

"I think there's a Chocolate Frog down my shirt," Sirius said with a very serious expression on his face.

The boys received many stares from their fellow students and the got off of the train and joined the mass of students. But, being the Marauders, they didn't care too much.

"First years, over here!"

"First years over here!" came a voice from a little farther down.

"Look at that!" Sirius screamed.

"Oh my god! A Carriage pulled by nothing! How cool!" James said looking over at the carriages in which there were no horses attached.

"Let's go on them!" James and Sirius said together.

They were seriously considering going on the horseless carriages. But Remus, being the voice of reason, stopped them.

The girls cautiously climbed off of the train. Lily and Keely clung together hoping not to get separated.

"Danielle, look at all of these students," Keely said.

"Danielle?" But as Keely looked around, she realized that Danielle was nowhere in sight.

"Where did she go?" Lily asked nervously.

"First years over here!"

"Oh, we better go," Lily said.

"But, we need to find Danielle," Keely said frantically.

"We'll find her! We really need to go!" Lily said urgently.

"O ok," Keely said giving in.

When Danielle had gotten off the train, she was immediately separated from her friends. She knew that first years rode boats across the lake to school, so she headed towards the lake.

She saw the boats, and decided to get in one. She watched as a girl with dark brown hair climbed into a boat and sat down. A lanky boy with bleached blonde hair closely followed her.

Danielle slowly got into the same boat as the first two. A girl with long black hair took the seat next to her.

"I'm Jen Chan, What's your name? What house do you think you'll be in? I think I'll be in Ravenclaw," The girl with long black hair said to Danielle.

"Danielle Kirk, nice to meet you. O and I think I'll be in Gryffindor, most of my family has been in Gryffindor," Danielle said.

"Your hair is like so silky, what kind of conditioner do you use? Oh and by the way my name is Kevin Mc Devit, but you can call me Kevy," The bleached blonde haired boy said to the girl with dark brown hair.

"Hello my name is Felicia, but you can call me Felicia. I've got a bad temper, now get your hand out of my face, turn the other way and don't ever talk to me again, ok?"

Danielle looked at this girl. She had brown eyes to match her hair, and a bit of a sour look on her face, but Danielle thought that she looked like she could be fun to be friends with.

"Hello, my name is Felicia Rocks," the girl turned around and said as calmly as possible. Danielle just looked at her in shock, as Jen introduced herself.

"Umm, what's your name? Hello? Yes I mean you," Felicia said as Danielle looked around expecting to see someone behind her Felicia could be talking to.

"Oh, hello. I'm Danielle Kirk," Danielle said trying to sound calm and nice.

"Oh hello," Felicia said. She was really nice to Danielle, but completely ignored "Kevy" and barely talked to Jen.

Danielle and Felicia didn't have much in common, but got along pretty well, and continued to talk for a while.

When Keely and Lily finally made their way over to the boats, they saw that Danielle had already gotten into a boat with some students that they didn't know.

They waved, but Danielle didn't see them because she was talking to a bossy looking girl with dark brown hair.

Lily and Keely gave up and climbed into the closest boat. To bad they didn't notice who else was in the boat.

"So did you get that gum out of your hair?" One of the boys asked with a huge smile on his face. The girls immediately recognized him as none other than Sirius Black. The others, of course the Marauders.

"Oh, you better watch it," Keely replied giving Sirius a "You're-going-to-die" face.

"Yea well at least we don't have food all over ourselves," Lily said in a calm tone.

"You know, Lilykins has a point," James said with an evil grin," We do need to get cleaned up."

"Yea we do look like idiots," Sirius added.

Now Sirius wasn't one to call himself an idiot, so the girls knew something was wrong.

"For once, I think Sirius is right," Remus said a huge grin spreading across his too, "Showing up for the sorting covered in food is a bad impression. I'd rather show up looking like I took a nice wet shower."

"Yea, Yeah," said Peter finally catching on, "I'd rather show up wet too."

"Wh-what do you mean?" Keely asked slightly trembling.

Her question was shortly answered, but not the way she would have liked. Shrieks and screams filled the air as the boat Lily and Keely shared with The Marauders toppled over.

"Oh my god oh my god my hair my hair I worked on it for three hours this morning oh my god oh my god I can't breath I can't breath I'm wet I'm really wet," Keely said in some kind of trance.

Then she noticed that Danielle had stood up in her boat and was laughing hysterically. Keely thought for a second and then lounged at Danielle, pulling her into the lake.

"Keely!!!! What was that for!?" Danielle yelled.

Keely started to laugh at Danielle, but noticed Sirius laughing at her and started towards him with another "you're-going-to-die" look.

"Keely, chill out!" Sirius said with a smile, "Look on the bright side, we're not covered in food anymore."

"Black, you better pray to god that you can swim fast because I'm going to kill you!" Keely said with a look of pure hatred in her eyes.

Sirius' grin disappeared rather quickly.

"Oh shit!" Sirius said very meaningfully.

Just as Keely was about to lounge at Sirius, at giant tentacle wrapped itself around her, picked her up and dropped her on the shore.

"How come Keely gets to ride the giant squid?" James yelled out.

When Sirius finally made it to shore, Keely immediately began to yell at him. Lily of course, was giving James a good lecture.

"James Potter! What were you thinking?"

"Hmmm, I can't really remember at the moment, let me think about it," James said while scratching his head acting like he was really trying to think.

Keely jumped on Sirius and began to pound him. By the time she was finally pulled off of him, he had a black eye and quite a few bruises. It took Danielle a good bit of time to finally pull her off, Keely was trying so hard to literally kill Sirius, that it was a huge struggle for Danielle to get her off.

Sirius, being his idiotic self, couldn't stop laughing, which only made Keely madder.

"oh let me at him! Let me at him!" Keely screamed.

"Keely, calm yourself," Danielle said with a little impatience in her voice. She was still holding Keely back.

"And you!" Danielle said turning her gaze towards Sirius, "stop laughing."

"I can't stop!" Sirius said in between laughs. HE was now rolling on the floor.

"I've never been beaten up by a girl, and I have to say I don't hate it!"

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!" Keely screamed and jumped on Sirius once more.

As the group of first years entered the great hall, they noticed that two of the more mischeivious members were missing.

"Idiot one is trying to help Idiot two get rid of that black eye you gave him," Remus said to Keely hoping she wouldn't flip out.

"Well after all, it was your idea, and your lucky I took most of my anger out on that prat, or I would be pounding you!" Keely said, her anger once again rising.

Lily and Danielle just sighed and continued to walk as Keely continued to talk/scream at Remus.

A girl with short brown hair and bright blue eyes gave Lily a dirty look for being drenched for the sorting.

"What? I fell into the lake! Do you have a problem? Huh? Huh? Do ya? Do ya? It wasn't my fault!" Lily snapped.

The girl just stood there in horror.

"'I'll be back, I'm going to see if Remus survived the attack. Although it was his fault," Lily said before walking away, leaving Danielle to go see her new friends.

"Hey Felicia, Felicia, Helloo?" Danielle was trying to get her new friend's attention but she seemed to be telling someone off.

"Excuse me, when I say get ouf of my way I mean get out of my way!" Felicia screamed.

"I don't have to move if I don't want to," screamed the other girl.

"Fine then, I'll make you move," Felicia said as she pulled out her wand, muttered a spell, and watched the girl go flying.

"That'll teach her," said Felicia to no one impaticular.

"Oh, hello Dnaielle," Felicia said in a very calm voice.

But Danielle was too in shock to answer.

"Black, Sirius."

"Black, Sirius?" A voice said once again. Professor Mc Gonagal was holding a very old hat and was calling out to, "Black, Sirius," once again.
