Disclaimer: Lily: Mrs Lily and Mr Harry would like to inform you that Miss Munchkin does not own the characters that you recognise from the Harry Potter series and would like to express her delight at the amount of days left until the next book arrives. Mr Prongs would like to express his delight that a series of books has been written about his son. Mr Padfoot would like to register his astonishment hat Snape has become a professor and why is he a wanted, insane, mass murderer? Mr Mooney would like to hit Mr Padfoot over the back of the head so that he will stop annoying Miss Munchkin so she can get back to the story. Miss Munchkin would like to give Mr Mooney a hug, thank him for getting Mr Padfoot away from her, and would like to register her astonishment that Severus Snape appears n a Melbourne Zoo. Miss Munchkin would also like to give a sinister laugh of what Messer's Prongs, Mooney and Padfoot will do to said Slytherin when they see him. Mwahahaha.

To all of you disappointed that Sirius didn't lose Harry on the train, Melbourne Zoo s quite large and Harry is quite small. By the end of this chapter, James and Sirius will be under a vengeful Lily's wrath.

Chapter 11: At The Zoo.

May 8th, 1981- Melbourne Zoo, Victoria, Australia.

Lily and Remus paid the zookeeper using Muggle money as James 'helped' by reading the prices.

"Adults, 16 years and over, $20. Children, 4 to 15 years, $9.50. Children under four years free. Cool. Harry's free."

Sirius, however, was looking at the attractions. "Reptiles? Cool. Maybe Snape will in there. You know James, in the actually cage."

James laughed, thinking of Snape the Snake.

Lily hired a stroller for Harry and they begun their walk. Around the zoo they went, Jams picking up Harry and showing him all the animals. Harry's favourite was the Butterfly House, where he could actually touch a butterfly.

They saw a couple of moose eating grass and watched them for a few minutes.

"Remus?"

"Yes, Sirius."

"What's the plural of moose?"

"It's the same Sirius. You would say 'there is a couple of moose'"

"Why wouldn't it be 'meese'? I mean, you say 'geese' instead of 'gooses', so why not 'meese' instead of 'mooses'?"

"For starters, there is no such word as 'mooses' it's just 'moose', and for seconds, that's the way the English language is."

"All right Mooney. You and your language win this round."

"It's you language too, Sirius"

"Not if it's so complicated, it's not. When I'm Minister of Magic, I'm changing the whole language"

"Yes Sirius, you do that," James said to his best friend, while exchanging a smile with Remus. They both knew how Sirius was. He would fight for a cause that was hopeless.

They kept going around the Zoo and eventually got to the Reptile House. Lily, Amy and Samantha had a rest outside while Sirius, Remus, Amanda and Michael went into the Reptile house. James picked up Harry and asked him, "Do you want to see the snakes and frogs Harry?"

"Fwogs!" Harry cried. He loved frogs.

James took him into the Reptile House and put him on the ground. James watched as his son crawled over to where the frogs were and looked through the class. He stepped over to Sirius, glancing over at the mischievous frog-loving child that was his son every few seconds.

"Hey Prongs, look at this," Sirius said.

James looked at what Sirius was pointing at. He smiled at the lizard lounging on the rock. When e looked back towards Harry, he thought he saw a familiar looking person. Long, greasy black hair, large crooked nose and an evil sneer on his face. James looked at Sirius, wondering if he had seen it too. When he looked back, the man was gone. He shook his head and looked back at the frogs area. But the little raven-haired boy was gone. Harry had walked away from the frogs and was now at the cage of a boa constrictor. James started to walk over to him.

"Harry, hop away from there," James called. But Harry, being a young child, had selective hearing. (A/N: Selective hearing, for anyone who dosen't know, is a 'condition' that every child has, where they only hear what they want to hear. Teenagers have it too.)

Harry put his hand on the glass and watched as the snake slithered to where he was.

Green eyes met amber as Harry and the snake looked at each other.

Then, the glass disappeared.

"Harry!" James yelled, as the snake advanced on his only child.

James pulled out his wand but didn't attack, for fear of harming his precious son.

The Constrictor wrapped around Harry, gave him a gentle squeeze and then crawled out through the door. Harry petted the snake on the head before it left and then crawled towards the frightened looking man. "Dada"

"Don't you dare 'dada' me, Harry James Potter. We are going ight outside to talk to your mother."

"James, you prat. Lily will kill you," Remus said grabbing a hold of Harry before James could.

Just then, James heard a scream.

"Lily!"

He had just remembered that Lily was an ophidiophobic. Lily had a fear of snakes. And her only child had just let one loose.

A/N: Dun dun dahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh. Mwahaha. Lily is afraid of snakes and her son is a parselmouth. Yes, I know Voldemort was meant to have given Harry his power to talk to snakes, but this kid is special. What is Harry, who may be a descendant of Godric Gryffindor, had some of Salzar Slytherins blood in him to? In this fanfic, Harry is a parselmouth. And Lily hates snakes.

Oh, and clascachu? Go Meese. And kindly get the Marauders out of your brain and back into my story. Do you want more chapters? If so, had 'em back, I ain't done with them yet. Remus still has to annoy the Meanies. And Sirius still has to talk to the Prime Minister of Australia about his thoughts on changing the English language to include the word 'meese'. Kindly give me the Marauders back so I can torment them some more.
