Lily & Co.
"I cannot believe that he is Head Boy!" Lily yelled. "I just don't see how he could have done it!"
"I do," A black-haired, girl said. Green eyes flashing she stared at Lily. James was a sore subject between the two best friends. This was because of Belle's friendship of James.
Lily glared across the compartment at Belle.
"You know if you weren't so stuck up about the whole pranking thing James is actually a really nice guy," Belle said with the air of someone who had gone over this a million times, which would be true.
"Do not speak to me about him!" said Lily furiously. "You always take his side! I don't know why you even bother hanging with me!"
"Maybe I WON'T!" and with that she walked out of the compartment and slammed the door shut with a bang that broke the pane of glass.
Lily her face bright red from shouting stuck her nose in the air huffily.
Sirius
Belle burst into our compartment and sat in between Remus and the window.
Remus acknowledged her with a nod of his bespecked, as I called him when he wore his glasses, head and a quiet, "Hi."
"What now," I asked exasperatedly.
"Lily is a conceited git!" she said with feeling.
James looked at Belle sadly.
"Look James it's a match made in heaven both of you are apparently conceited gits," I said attempting to lighten the mood. Needless to say it didn't work.
"Shuttup," James mumbled looking back out the window.
Remus set aside his book carefully and asked, "Why now?" in his soothing comforting way. That man could work magic….well duh….but like another kind he had like this soothing quality about him and he was the "glue".
"Okay before I start," and she looked straight at me. "I am not madly in love with James." Then she turned to Remus, "Lily refuses to see James for who he is! She only sees the kid who tortures Slytherins, teases first years and mouths off to teachers. She doesn't want to see the guy who gets good grades, or the serious James, or the devoted James or the James-Who-Lives-Next-Door, the one that saved my cat from the really tall oak tree when he was afraid of heights!"
I couldn't help it I really couldn't. I swear I tried with all my heart not to just burst out howling like a hyena. James was looking really embarrassed by that flow of defence. "HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!" I gasped for breath as everyone in the compartment stared at me. "You…were……afraid…of …….HEIGHTS?" I gasped in between spurts of uncontrollable laughter.
James turned beet red and I am talking like the muggle siren cars (A/N that would be fire-trucks). "I was FIVE goddamit!" James defended himself.
"It is rather funny actually," Remus said chuckling to himself.
"Rather!" I said still having trouble keeping myself undercontrol. "It's knee-slapping!" and we all scrambled to slap Peter's knee. Remus was the last one.
"Must I really?" he asked desperately.
"Oh Yes!" James said excitedly.
"Even the girl's," I said deviously.
At that Remus turned bright red and groaned. He conjured a toilet paper crown, a toilet seat to hang around his neck and a cape of toilet paper. The rest of us busily conjured toilet paper binoculars and ridiculous hats. Belle even managed a compass sort of thing.
I threw open the compartment door and turned to Remus bowing, "Make me proud!"
Remus bellowed, "JOHN RAID!"
At this point you may be wondering "What the hell" and I would not blame you but if you have to go to the bathroom I would suggest you now turn back. We all followed Remus out into the corridor and we headed towards the trains bathrooms.
Deciding to get the worst over with Remus threw open the girls bathroom door and bellowed," John raid standard procedure!"
"If not…IN WE COME!" I added as Belle tapped her compass and it pointed to one stall.
James threw open the bathroom stall and yelled, "John—" and then looking into the glaring eyes of Lily reaching for the stall door his courage failed him.
Mine on the other hand did not desert me, "RAID!" I finished for Poor James.
Lily sighed and put her hands on her backside.
Belle giggled.
"You're taking part in this?" Lily asked astonished.
"I slapped Peter's knee," Belle said shrugging.
"Everything looks good here. RAIDERS TURN OUT!" and we filed out into the hallway as Remus kicked open the boys bathroom door.
"JOHN RAID!" and every guy turned out with their hands on their backsides.
"Ship-shape men back to business," I said ushering out our king of toilet paper with a few, "right this way O Mighty King of Toilet Paper."
"I'll have you know I think that's stupid!" Lily said tapping her foot.
"I'll have you know that I don't care what you think," I said.
Remus and Belle stared at me.
I guess, looking back I must have just snapped. "I'm tired of having to relive every freaking rejection that you give James!" someone came out of the bathroom I turned around and said, "Get back in there we're kind of busy right now! For Godric's Sake go out with the poor pitiful kid!"
Lily blinked at him shocked, "what….um…okay."
I think everyone was mirroring my shell-shocked expression when I asked, "umm what?"
"Sure I guess," Lily said.
"Well! If I'd known it was gonna be that easy….I would have snapped a long time ago." I said light-heartedly. Then the car crashed and teetered.
Britt and Co.
Britt looked out her window and screamed.
The trio jumped out of the compartment into the corridor and Britt landed right in Sirius's arms. She jumped back quickly and said, "We're on a bridge!"
"You have got to be kidding me!" Sirius yelled.
"Well I'm not!" Britt yelled back and then she brushed past everyone and hurtled down the corridor.
"WHAT THE HELL!" Sirius yelled.
"Her youngest sister is a first year," Meg told him.
"And she thinks she's going alone?" Sirius asked.
"Well she kind of is, mate," James pointed out.
"Right. Not anymore," and he tore off after Britt.
"She can take care of herself!" Megan hollered after Sirius.
James looked at her oddly.
"What? She's taken on eight death eaters by herself when the death eaters attaked her house over the summer. I was there," Megan said.
James looked a little unnerved by this information but entertained everyone on their way to the conductor's compartment.
When they got their they fond their conductor dead and way more than eight death eaters!
