Chapter 22

Lily and Her Plans


Remus sighed. Life was at an all time low, for him.

James and Sirius only hung out with each other, with Peter following them around like a lapdog. They were tormenting Snape more than ever...Remus couldnt figure it out.

He knew WHY they were tormenting Snape...but it all seemed unreal. The information wasnt so surprising...it was expected. And even with the reason, Remus knew that James and Sirus wouldnt go around hurting him just for that...there had to be more

"Unless..." he thought "Unless...there's more to it than meets the eye..."

-----------------------------------------------------------

Lily, Miranda, Trixia, Brittany and Marie. They were all so close now...in such little time. It was as if the Death Eater defeat had created a special bond between them. Even though Trixia and Brittany hadnt been there during the Death Eater fight (Trixia hadnt been at the party and Brittany had left early) Lily still felt a bond of closeness with them. It was nice to have girl friends. Being with the Marauders had been great. In fact, it had been the best and probably nothing would match up to it. But this sure came close. Anyway, it wasnt as if James and Sirius were fun anymore...they had just become downright mean.

That day, as the five girls sat under a willow tree by the lake (A/N: NOT the whomping willow people!) Lily thought about all the fun times she had had with the Marauders. Then she thought about all the fun times she had had and was going to have in the future with her five friends...her five girl friends...her five...

"Do you realise that we dont have a group name?" she suddenly said

"A group name?" said Marie "why would we want one?'

"Yeah, like what would we be? The anti-marauders?" said Brittany

"I like the idea" said Miranda

"Yeah me, too" said Trixia

"A group name would be cool...we'd have a trademark...people would no what to refer to us as" Lily explained

"Hmmm..." said Marie

"Lets all try to come up with something" said Trixia

"hmmm...our initials dont work out into anything..."said Miranda

"Neither do our last names..." said Marie

"Evans Lee Cain Moody Greene...maybe that could work out into something" said Brittany

"No i tried almost everything...theres nothing" said Marie

"So lets just pick a neutral name" said Miranda

"Hmmmm...." said Lily "anyone got any suggestions?"

-----------------------------------------------------------------

Lily came back to the common room that evening smiling. She was a pure genius. She just knew it...she had come up with so many ideas for their new group...and she had come up with the perfect name. She...

Lily suddenly spotted Remus in a corner, sitting quietly and reading.

She thought about walking past him and up to her dormitory...but she couldnt make herself do it. Remus had been like a brother to her. He had been one of her best friends. And he wasnt the one behaving like a HUGE prat with a gigantic ego and an oversized head. Lily couldnt be mad at Remus...their wasnt any reason to be.

She approached him slowly. he looked up at her and smiled. "Hi" he said...

"Hi Remus...Whats been going on?"

Remus sighed..."Well as usual i'm feeling weak after the full moon" said Remus. "At least now theres a full month before my next transformation"

Lily smiled. Remus looked at her in a sad way

"Well, at least WE can still be friends" said Remus

Lily snorted "We can...but its not like you dont have friends...arent you friends with the two egoistic-prats as well?"

"Yes i am...but James and Sirius have been my friends since forever...and i need them...after all, they help me when i transform..."

"Hmmm..." said Lily "I guess i can understand that..."

"Yeah" said Remus

"But you must know WHY theyre acting this way, right?" asked Lily

Remus sighed

::: FLASHBACK :::

Lily jumped onto another table and aimed six or seven Leg Locker Curses to Death Eaters all around. Meanwhile, Sirius was disarming as many as he could.

The Disarming Spell, The Leg Locker Curse and the Full Body Bind were used frequently as they were useful. Then Sirius discovered another usefull spell. "Incarcerous!" he said as a Death Eater pulled out his wand to perform the killing curse on James. The Death Eater was bound up in tight ropes and fell struggling to the ground. As he did, his hood slid off his face, showing Sirius who he was.

::: FLASHBACK END :::

"So?" said Lily

"So...It was Snape's dad under the cloak." said Remus

"Remus, seriously that isnt surprising...its actually quite NORMAL really...they have no reason to act like that"

"Yes...and the worst part is, when the Ministry caught up with the death eaters, Snapes dad was put into Azkaban"

"So Snape has already lost his dad to the wizard prison...and now James and Sirius are making his life hell? Oh God!

"But Lily...dont you see? there has GOT to be another reason...there is NO way James and Sirius would be acting like this just because Snapes dad was a death eater..."

"I know, Remus, i know. But WHAT can that reason be?

"Thats something we have to find out..."
