The four looked at each other wide-eyed before they heard a familiar voice in the hallway.
"Potter, what are you doing?" questioned a very angry-sounding Severus Snape. The four in the bathroom froze, realizing that they were caught. But then, to their surprise, they heard another voice answering Snape.
"I was just...looking for my...my book that I lost," the boy's voice sounded a lot like James's.
But, they all thought, how can James be both out there talking to Snape, and in the bathroom with the rest of them?
"A likely story," spat Snape.
"It's the truth," came the boy's voice again. Sirius, Remus, and James looked at each other and smirked, knowing the boy was lying. Lily, however, closed her eyes tightly, hoping against hope that they weren't going to be found. She just couldn't bear it if she got in trouble, especially with them. Sirius, Remus, and James were known for their rule-breaking. If the teachers thought she was friends with any of them...
"Potter, you are liar, just like your father was," hissed Snape. James looked at the others, confused. Snape didn't know his father. And besides, if that was somehow James out there, then why was he trying to offer an excuse instead of telling Snivellus to shove off?
"My father was not a liar," came the James-like voice forcefully. "And neither am I."
"Ten points from Gryffindor for your disrespect," said Snape before he could be heard storming away. The four looked at each other even more confused. Snape, taking points from Gryffindor? How? What gave him the right? They were so caught up in their internal questions and the relief that Snape had gone away that they didn't even notice the footsteps coming toward the bathroom.
"Bloody hell," the James-like voice said upon seeing the four in the floor. Lily, James, Sirius, and Remus looked up to see James standing in the doorway. Well, it looked like James, but it wasn't him. This boy had intense green eyes, and a thin lightning-shaped scar on his forehead. What was going on?
"Ooh, this is interesting," Myrtle said with another cackle. The five students looked up at her, disgusted.
