Harry Potter

It had been a week since Harry's birthday bash, Harry, Joey and Zara were currently in Black mansion it was evening. The two boy's were staring intently at Zara for she was trying to see how big a bubble she could blow, with Drooble's best blowing gum before it blew up in her face. Their fathers stood at the door watching this with amusement.

Remus knocked the door and said, " Hi guys, could we come in."

"Sure." said Harry and Joey, Zara just nodded she was still blowing.

Sirius walked over to his daughter her eyes were wide for if she knew her father then...

POP!

The first Black girl now had a pink sticky face. She slowly started to peel the pinkness off her face while everyone else in the room was laughing and wiping tears away from their eyes.

"Anyway we need you to come outside." said James.

They all walked into the Black's back garden, they walked over to the shed were all the brooms and Sirius' motorcycle was kept. The door opened with a creak and they all walked in. In the centre was a cauldron bubbling and smoking.

"What is that?" asked Zara

"A cauldron that's bubbling and smoking." stated Sirius

"Thank you Mr. Point out the obvious a lot." said Zara

"What's the potion for?" asked Joey

"Is it dangerous?" asked Harry

"Or even better... illegal?" said Zara

"Too many questions. Calm down." said James. "The potion is for Harry and Zara."

"Why not me?" asked Joey a little offended.

"Because your a werewolf, and this will help you." explained his Dad.

Harry was slowly backing out of the shed along with Zara, they both knew that these three were not exactly the best potion brewers around. Whatever the potion was it didn't look to good.

"This is the animagus potion." explained Sirius.

The three eleven year olds mouths fell to the floor. No way their fathers were animagi. They were illegal, but Lily and Joy made them register. If their Mums found out that they were brewing this potion... well they didn't want to think about it. But they knew it would be painful.

"Does Mum know about this?" said Harry looking at his Dad.

"Again with the questions." muttered James.

"I'll take that as a no then." he replied.

"Hang on how does this help me." said Joey

"You see if there are animals there for your transformation then you are a little more sane." explained Remus

"But isn't there the wolfs bane potion." said Joey

"Yes, but you are not allowed to take that until you are 15." (A/N: Probably not true but for the sake of it it is okay.)

"So you want us to turn into illegal animagi... cool." said Zara

"No, No No I will not let you." said Joey

"But Joey we can help you." said Harry

"And what if you get hurt or caught." replied Joey

"We'll cross those bridges when and if it comes" explained Zara with a smile.

"Fine."

"Which one of you is going first?" asked James

"I will I guess." said Zara stepping forward.

Remus ladled some greeny stuff into a tumbler, and handed it to Zara who took it cautiously. She looked at the gloop and then at her friends, and back to the gloop. Zara pinched her nose and drunk the mixture in one swallow. Almost immediately it felt as if it was going to come back up and then all of a sudden standing in Zara's place was a fox.

The fox had black fur, white paws and long whiskers, you really couldn't tell that it was Zara unless you looked closely at the foxes eyes one was amber and one was brown.

After a couple of seconds Zara was standing back in the spot.

Harry walked up to the cauldron took a deep breath and drunk the potion. As Zara had before Harry had started to feel sick and then it was gone.

A red phoenix stood there it's eyes sparkling, again the only way you could tell it was Harry was because the bird's plumage was ruffled and messy. Harry was back.

"Give us Marauders swear that you will not tell your Mother's and as soon as you finish school you will register with the ministry." said Remus.

"We swear." they chorused.

"Good come on then let's get back in it's getting cold." said James.

They all started to walk back toward Black Manor.

"Hey guys," Zara whispered. " Marauder swear that we'll always be friends."

"We swear." the two boys whispered back and with that they all linked arms and went inside.
