Chapter 1
"Lily, Olivia is here to see you!"
Eleven year old Lily Evans shot up from her bed. She quickly put her wavy red hair in a ponytail in the back of her head. She put on her green tank-top to match her glistening, emerald green eyes and jean caprees. She raced down the stairs to see a chocolate flash of hair come through the door.
"Lil!" Olivia Centrone said blissfully.
"Hey Liv!" Lily said just as blissful.
Lily Evans was a pretty girl of eleven. She had dark red hair that formed in pretty waves up to her mid-back. Her hair went perfectly with her beautiful green eyes. She had light skin. Her cheeks were flushed. She was 4'7. Her best friend was Olivia.
Olivia Centrone was probably the prettiest girl you would ever meet. She had chocolate brown hair that fell into soft, loose curls down her back. She had almond shaped eyes the color of deep blue. She had perfect, peachy skin. As eleven years old, she was 4'8.
"Not to be rude, Liv," Lily began, "why are you here?"
"I just wanted to be here when you get it" Olivia said as they heard tapping on a window.
"Get what?" Lily said as Lily's mother, Katherine, looked out the window.
"Honey, do you have any idea why there are owls on our car?" Katherine asked her husband, Jim.
Olivia smirked. "I knew it!" She jumped up and down as Jim picked up a letter from the owl.
"Knew what?" Katherine asked suspiciously.
"Lily, this letter is for you." Jim said slowly. Lily took the letter eying Katherine in a weird way.
"Lily! Open it!" Katherine yelled as Lily ripped the letter open. Her eyes scanned the paper over and over again. Her mouth dropped.
"Lily! You are a witch! Just like me!" Olivia pratically yelled it out.
"A what?" Her parents said at the same time with Petunia repeating it as she was walking down the stairs.
"So this is all true? Mum, Dad, look! It says I am a witch and I can join Hogwarts! A school of Witchcraft and Wizardry." Lily said excitedly.
"Honey, are you sure this isn't some kind of joke?" Katherine said amazed.
"She is sure! I am positive! I am a witch! My whole family are witches and wizards!" Olivia said jumping up and down.
Katherine and Jim looked at each other confused. They both looked at Lily for an answer. Lily mouthed please to them over and over again.
"Well, I suppose we can try this out." Katherine said slowly.
"Mum! Thank you so much!" Lily said excitedly.
"Lil, you and your parents have to meet me and my parents tomorrow morning at Diagon Alley." Olivia stated.
"Diagon what?" Lily said cocking her head to the side.
"Just meet us on your porch at nine o' clock." She said making it simpler as she walked out the door.
"Bye, Liv!" Lily said thinking about her world at Hogwarts. Will she fit in? Is she the only person who wasn't born a witch? All these questions began to fill her head. She was anxious to find out the answers.
"Mum! It is 10:30. Me and Sirius need to get on the train." James Potter shouted out to his mom from the door.
"Coming, dear!" Megan Potter sang as she came down the stairs. James rolled his eyes at his mother's horrible singing voice. Sirius just laughed.
James Potter was a handsome boy of 5'0. For eleven years old, he was tall. He had jet-black hair that fell in different directions on his head. He had hazel eyes that anybody can melt in. He already had a six-pack encouraged by his father, Paul Potter.
Sirius Black was just as handsome as James. He was the same height as James also. He has neat, black hair that framed his angelic face. He had crystal blue eyes that everyone loved. He, too, worked out encouraged by James's father, and has earned a six-pack.
Sirius was like a brother to James and practically lived in James's house. He was supposedly part of the infamous Black family but knew he would get disowned if he accomplished his goal of getting into Gryffindor. His family was known for being in Slytherin. That tradition was once broken by his cousin, Andromeda, who was a year older then he is and was disowned last year.
They got into Mr. Potter's work 'car' and rode to the train station. Sirius was looking over some prank books Mr. P gave to him.
"Hey, Jamsie, Let's play this prank as out first prank!" Sirius said excitedly.
James scanned the page. "This is perfect!" Sirius and James gave eachother a high five. 'This was going to be the beginning of a long year' they both thought as grins were forming on their face.
Lily walked into the train station with Olivia. Their parents were walking behind them. Lily took a glance at her ticket.
"9 and 3 quarters? Is that a station?" Lily asked confused.
"Yepp." Olivia said looking around for stations 9 and 10. She continued, "Just follow me. I know where I'm going."
Katherine's face fell. "I don't see 9 and 3 quarters."
Mrs. Centrone just smiled. "Go on Olivia! Have a good year!" She said as she kissed Olivia's head.
"Watch me!" Olivia said as she ran into the barrier. Lily looked frightened.
"Bye pumpkin!" Lily's parents said through tears and hugs.
Lily just took a deep breath, closed her eyes, and ran into the barrier. She opened her eyes relieved and saw a big, beautiful train.
"It is called the Hogwarts Express." Olivia said popping up.
"Come on! Let's find a compartment." She said happily.
Lily and Olivia searched compartments. "This one isn't full." Lily said peeking into one. They walked in and saw two identical girls.
They both had curly black hair. One girl had deep brown eyes and the other had hazel eyes.
"Hi! I'm Carly Chase! And this is my twin, Krissy." The girl with the brown eyes chirped. Krissy, the one with the hazel eyes just smiled merely.
"Mind if we sit here?" Olivia asked hopefully.
"Sure" Carly and Krissy said at the same time.
The door burst open. They turned and saw four boys.
The first boy had long, neat black hair. He had crystal blue eyes and was about 5'0. The boy laughing had messy jet-black hair and hazel eyes. He was also 5'0. The third one was about 4'11 and had golden hair and golden eyes. The last boy was 4'4 and didn't fit in much. He had blonde hair and watery blue eyes. He was short and plump.
"Hello, ladies." The first boy said in a deep voice. "I am Sirius Black.
We are the Marauders."
The second boy joined in, "We are here to give you pleasure! I am James Potter, this is Remus Lupinm," now pointing to the third boy, "and this is Peter Pettigrew." He said pointing to the last boy.
Olivia rolled her eyes. "Of course you can sit in here!"
Sirius took a seat next to Olivia, and started a conversation. Remus took a seat between Carly and Krissy. Carly blushed to the roots of her head. When Krissy saw this she smiled and let Remus and Carly go in their own little world. She started a conversation with Lily and got to know her better.
James sat next to Lily eavesdropping on their conversation. Peter challenged James to a game of exploding snap and James decided he couldn't let the opportunity pass.
The train stopped. "Are we there yet?" Carly asked.
"I don't think so. There is something going on and I am going to find out." James said.
"James, I don't think that's a great idea-" the speakers cut off Lily as she was speaking.
"ATTENTION ALL HOGWARTS STUDENTS. STAY IN YOUR COMPARTMENTS AND DON'T MOVE. WE AREN'T NEARLY THERE. A CERTAIN TOPIC HAS INTERRUPTED THE DRIVER OF THE TRAIN. THERE IS NO REASON TO FRET. STAY CALM."
Lily threw nervous glances at Olivia. Olivia shrugged and went back to the conversation between her and Sirius.
Lily was too nervous thinking about what had frightened the driver to notice the fact that James was staring at her.
