A/N: Hello again! Well…. You know. Just the usual. Sorry for not updating. Thanks to the reviewers, they all mean so much to me. If you get sick of waiting for updates, read my other fic up, it's the reason the updates are slow, I have to update them evenly, or one will get about three to every one, or whatever. So read "It's All In The Chase" by me, Georgie Gryffindor. A little self promoting never hurt no-one. So… read it… after you read this chapter of course, it's a Lily/James story set in their seventh year… so go check it out please. Ok, here's the story

'Harry, tell me what you're planning!' Susan whined, getting very bored and irritated.

'Ok, ok it's done.' Harry said. He brandished a piece of parchment at her.

She looked at it for a minute before her face broke out into a huge grin.

'Harry, this is brilliant!'

'I know.' He said. She rolled her eyes. Gryffindor's weren't known for their modesty.

'In your Potions class tomorrow morning?' She asked.

'Yeah. Skip with me.' Harry said. 'I'll need help.'

'Ok.' She said. 'See you tomorrow.' She quickly left the Quidditch change rooms and hurried back to the castle in the light of only her wand.

'Being Harry sucks.' James said on Monday morning after breakfast. 'I have to follow the rules and act like Head Boy.' Lily turned to him.

'Something you should be use to doing, James.' She whispered his name. 'But no, you left it all to me.'

'We were planning a prank that time, flower.' Sirius said seriously.

'You guys suck.' Ron said. 'Honestly stop fighting for a minute, please. Harry doesn't fight.' He paused. 'Hang on, he does!' Ron acted as though he had a great victory over his brain.

Everyone laughed.

'Quick, there's Susan, we need to talk to her.' Hermione said.

'Hey guys.' The Hufflepuff said.

'Where is he?' Ron asked, not beating around the bush. Susan raised her eyebrows.

'I don't know.' She said.

'We know he's not in the Gryffindor Tower like before. You know very well he was there yesterday afternoon.' Sirius smirked at her and tapped his nose. She blushed.

'Shut up.' Her face was like the Weasley's hair.

'Susan, we know already, and I know for a fact he would have told you where he is.' Hermione said.

'Hermione, I'm working on it.' Susan sighed. 'He wants to get a little revenge first, but then he'll get over it. You know what he's like.'

'R-Revenge?' Ron asked. 'Not on me?'

'Well, I'm not allowed to say, but… Bye!' She ran off just as the bell went.

'Great.' Sirius sighed. 'Divination then Potions.'

'Enjoy!' Lily smirked. She had decided to do Arithmancy with Hermione.

'Ooh, Harry, I bet you'll have lots of fun in Divination.' Hermione smiled sadly at Ron, who immediately caught on to what she meant, his face broke out into a grin. They started walking up the stairs.

'What did she mean?' Remus asked.

'Put it this way.' Ron said, draping his arm around James's shoulders. 'Welcome to the life of Harry Potter.'

They arrived at the ladder, and climbed up.

'Potter!' Professor Trelawney screeched as James entered the room. James looked like a deer (A/N: lol) in headlights, being used to being addressed to his fake name.

'Um, Yes?' James asked.

'I had predicted it! The 1st person to enter my room after,' She quickly looked at her watch, '8:45 with black hair and green eyes is going to die a long, painful death. It's the Grim!'

James's eyes opened widely in fear. Dean, Seamus and Neville all laughed.

Ron sighed.

'This is what, the first time you've said this since,' Ron made a big deal of checking his watch, '8:45 today! And it could be the only time it might come true!'

Everyone (bar Parvati, Lavender and the Professor) laughed.

'Harry mate,' Sirius said. 'You better watch where you're walking; you might get struck down by lightning and get eaten by the cross-breed of a Hippogriff and a House-elf.'

James grinned, but he spent the entire lesson being "forewarned" about "his" death.

'Yay.' Ron said gloomily. 'Potions.'

'Are you going to do a Harry and hit Snape?' Dean asked from a few meters to his right. Dean, Seamus and Neville were the only people outside their group that knew of Harry's disappearance, incase they did a Sirius and actually saw Harry.

'He's already done it.' Hermione said as she and Lily joined the group.

'Good job, imposter.' Neville said quietly, a small grin on his face. 'We have to go, so we'll will see you later.'

The three other boys left the group.

'So, Snape time.' Lily said as they headed off towards the dungeons.

'Yay.' Sirius said dully.

The six of them arrived at the dungeons to find the rest of the class already there.

'Potter! How nice to see you out of the Hospital Wing!' Draco Malfoy called malevolently. The Slytherins grunted their laughter.

'Malfoy! How nice to see you lost Quidditch on the weekend!' James retorted immediately. The Slytherins stopped laughing.

'Again.' Ron added. The Gryffindors and few Hufflepuffs and Ravenclaws laughed at this.

'Your crappy chaser isn't out yet though. Was it something I did?' Malfoy recovered quickly.

'No, actually, Jas is out too, but he's not here. He had to go home for a couple of days.' James spat back at him. And he scored more goals then your entire team. What was the score at the end? 180-nil?'

Malfoy glared.

'Where is Pratt then?' Malfoy's eyes glinted in Remus, Lily's and Sirius's direction.

'His mother is sick.' Remus said quickly. He had had lots of practice in the subject of explaining odd absences.

'Ooh, Jasy's Mummy!' Malfoy mocked. James's eyes (or Lily's eyes) narrowed at him. 'At least he's a pureblood, you can tell by looking at him. Unlike you Potter, and your stupid mudblood slut mother.'

'So your Potions class is now?' Susan asked after her first class of the day, meeting with Harry in an empty classroom.

'Yeah, c'mon, we should go now.' Harry said, pulling the cloak out of his robes.

'So your really going to go through with this?' Susan asked.

'Yeah, they deserve it.' Harry said.

'Maybe you should just go talk to them.' Susan said delicately.

'No.' Harry turned his head to avoid her eye contact. 'If they wanted to talk, they would have cam and talked to me.'

'I bet they wanted to,' Susan said, 'they probably just didn't have a chance.'

'They've been here a week.' Harry said. 'They had plenty chance. I mean, how would you feel if you were me?'

'Hurt.' Susan said. 'Angry. I'd want some payback on them for lying to me.'

'Exactly.'

'But'- Susan started.

'You wanna do this or not?' Harry asked grinning. 'It'll be fun, I promise.' Harry waved the bit of parchment he had been doodling on the previous night in her face. Seeing it, she grinned and nodded

He quickly pulled out the cloak and draped it over both of them. They quickly made their way down to the dungeons. They arrived and Harry saw Ron, Hermione, Remus, Sirius and his mum standing behind his dad. Malfoy was clearly picking a fight with what he assumed was Harry.

'Ooh, Jasy's Mummy!' Malfoy sneered. 'At least he's a pureblood, you can tell by looking at him. Unlike you Potter, and your stupid mudblood slut mother.'

James jumped on Malfoy, fists flaring, Crabbe and Goyle soon joining the mix

Harry stopped where he was. He reached for his wand before Susan grabbed his arm.

'We only need one Harry fighting.' She whispered in his ear, making the hairs on the back of his neck stand up. 'Look.' She nodded her head towards his friends.

Ron was sorely tempted to join the fight, but restrained himself, knowing he was the one going to get in trouble. Sirius leapt forward, but Remus grabbed the back of his robes, knowing James could take care of himself.

Harry looked at his mother. Her eyes were full of tears. She looked at Malfoy and James throwing punches at each other. Hermione was rubbing her back. Harry knew right then he would have to take their names off his little scrap of parchment.

Susan looked at him, her eyes pleading him. 'I'm taking the girls names off the thing.' He mouthed. She smiled; this was a good sign.

The dungeon door opened.

'Potter, Crabbe, Goyle, Malfoy. Fighting are we?' Professor Snape glared at James, his nose bloody.

'Fifty points of Gryffindor and Slytherin. Forty points to Slytherin for sticking up for your friends Crabbe and Goyle.' Snape glared at James. James got an idea.

'Forty points to Gryffindor for not getting involved.' James said quirkily.

Snape spun around.

'Detention Potter, for undermining a teacher.' The Potions Master glared at his arch-enemy.

'Oh Well.' James said, glaring Snape down and ruffling his hair. Snape glared. 'Please Enter.' He said, and ushered them into the classroom.

Harry was trying hard not to laugh.

'Are we going to do it now?' Susan asked him, the sound muffled by everyone's feet shuffling in, the two under the cloak huddled in a far corner.

'No.' Harry said. 'We'll wait until after Snape's written up the instructions.'

Sure enough, twenty minutes later, Snape had written up the instructions, everyone had begun preparing their Dissolving Dilute.

'Now?' Susan asked again.

'Ok, lets do it.' Harry said. They made their was quietly to the back of the classroom.

Harry raised his wand, bringing a piece of chalk from the board up too. Harry pulled out the piece of parchment, and began copying the picture he had drawn. As Harry had almost finished, someone noticed.

'What's that? Eww!'

The rest of the class looked up. On the board was a crude cartoon picture. It was entitled: What goes on in the Slytherin Common Room. There was a badly drawn picture of Draco Malfoy, his butt exposed, sitting on Professor Snape's lap. The Potions Master was holding a whip. (A/N: That should give you the general idea, I won't go further.)

At the bottom, Harry was hurrying to finish what he was writing.

"Courtesy of Harry Potter, Ron Weasley, Ricky Lockett and Shannon Brown."

Snape looked at the four boys, and then he looked around the room for some sign of someone else, before turning onto the four boys, a snide, evil grin on his face.

'Detention.' Snape said, a true grin breaking onto his face.

'Bloody Harry,' Remus moaned.

'Nice picture though.' Sirius and Ron said at the same time.

Lily and Hermione just smiled at the four boys, knowing that they could have been on the "detention" list too.

Snape turned away, his yellow teeth still bared. 'Evanesco.' He said, pointing his dark wand at the board. Nothing happened. As Snape would soon find out, not only had Harry stuck it to his board, he had placed Protean Charms on every board in the school.

In the Divination Class...

'My dear, you need to pay more attention in class!' Professor Trelawney yelled at Luna, who was reading the latest Quibbler. Her spiel was broken with Ginny falling off her chair on the other side of the table, bursting out in laughter.

'L-look at the board!'

Transfiguration…

'Now First Years, that is how you will change your goblet into a mug.' Professor McGonagall. I will put this picture on the board –aargh!'

The four boys received only three weeks detention scrubbing the trophies, on order of Dumbledore, starting that night. They had spent the rest of the day being hailed by all the other Gryffindors', many Hufflepuffs' and Ravenclaws'.

'Who drew it?'

'Harry.'

'Who's idea?'

'All of ours, but mainly Harry.'

'How did you get it on all the boards without anyone noticing?'

'Secret, But Harry did it.'

'Can you let me in on the next one?'

'Ask Harry.'

Harry was trailing the group all day. He noticed how upset they got by this constant attention.

'I thought you would be used to this Shan,' Lily said later that day. 'You know, from your groupies.'

'I seem to be getting a new mob though Flower.' Sirius said, as some fourth year girls grinned at him.

'Get a room mate.' James said.

Remus looked at his watch. 'We have to go to our lovely, lovely detention boys.' He got up out of his chair.

'Have fun!' Hermione said, kissing Ron on the cheek.

'Yeah, heaps.' Ron said darkly.

'I have to go too, Hermione.' Lily said. 'I'll be back in five minutes; I just want to go to the library for five minutes.'

'Oh.' Hermione said. 'Do you want me to come?'

'No, don't worry.' Lily said, leaving with the boys.

'See you guys later.' Lily said, walking away from them down a corridor.

'Bye bye Sweetheart!' James called. Her head turned back to face him, and she grinned back.

'You tell me to get a room,' Sirius said grumpily.

Lily walked along the corridor, until she came across the staircase she was looking for. She made her way to the library.

Lily wandered in, and went to look in the Defense Against the Dark Arts section. She wandered deep into it, before tripping over something.

She stumbled around, and realized she was face to face with her son, who seemed to have dozed off while reading.

'Merlin.' Lily said, amazed.

'No, Harry.' He joked. He moved himself into a sitting position.

'D-don't go!' She said, thinking he was about to dart off.

'Don't worry; I'm not going to run anymore, I can't take it.' He said, staring straight into his mother's eyes. 'Sit down.'

A/N: Did we like? Please say yes! Ok, this might be my last update for a bit, I have a school camp, so I figures I will write one now for me to add as soon as I get back, so if there is another one soon, it means that there will be a big wait then… :(. But camp will be great! Also remember to read my other fic, you can find it in my profile! (obviously) Review please!
