bChapter 9: Taking action… /b
The Marauders sat with each other one night, the exams were coming up and they were all studying hard, the Marauders as mischeavous as they were still were good students and they wanted to get good grades.
"What was the date of the Goblin Convention where Guybrush SteepFood held his demonstration?" Sirius asked.
"1678 and the name is Threepwood, not Steepfood," James sighed.
"Who cares anyway, I'm going to take a break," Sirius stood up and left for the dormitory.
"Yeah I'm going to take a break too," Peter said. He stood up and walked toward the portrait hole.
"Well Moony, it seems we are alone," James said.
"Ehm, I think I will be alone, look who's coming," James turned his head and saw Lily walking towards him.
"Hi Lil," James said.
"Hey James would you care for a walk around the lake, I want to talk to you," she said.
"Of course if Remus doesn't have a problem with it," James said.
"No I don't, I have to go to the library so this is a good time for it, I really need to know who that George Stobbart is," Remus said. He stood up and walked to the portrait hole.
"So do you come with me?" Lily asked.
"Why don't you come with me?" He took her hand and walked towards the dormitory. Sirius must have left already because he was nowhere to be seen. James kicked open his trunk and took his broom out.
"James, you can't…"
"Hush, just sit down," James said laying his finger on her mouth. She sat down on the broom. James sat down in front of her and he took of, opening the window with his wand. He took a sharp dive to the lake and landed smoothly at the left side.
"This is way quicker then walking downstairs. Now where did you want to talk about," James said.
"Voldemort," said Lily
"Voldemort?" asked James with a surprised expression on his face.
"Yes, can't we do something, help people, did you noticed that Dumbledore isn't his normal self, he looks tired," Lily said
"I noticed, but what can we do, we aren't even graduated wizards," James asked.
"But we are the intellegents wizard and witch of our age, Dumbledore said it himself. Let's go visit him," Lily said.
"You are sure about this?" James asked.
"Yes James, I am sure, I want to do something, I didn't take seven years of Defence against the dark arts for nothing," Lily said. She walked towards the castle and James followed her. He picked a tiny mirror out of his pocket and called Sirius.
"Padfoot, gather Moony and Wormtail, we are going to have a little chat with Dumbledore,"
"Aye captain," Sirius said with a smirk. James pocketed the mirror.
"If we are going to do something, we all are going to do something," he said looking at Lily.
"Thank you so much James," Lily said. They walked through the doors.
