Chapter 1
The letter comes at last!
James Potter was sitting on his bed at about 1:00 in the morning. He was waiting for his letter from Hogwarts. It was only a week until he had to go back! Why hadn't he gotten his letter yet? But that was not why he was still awake. He was, of course, he was thinking about Lilly Evens. He wondered if, finally he might get it and, maybe, he would be a prefect. That might help his parents to forget the fact that he had dangled a student upside down last term. "But, it's always Mooney that gets the badge… Oh well" He sat back on the bed and closed his eyes.
James woke up the next morning to his mother yelling up the stairs. "James! James Potter! Get down here. Your letters have arrived. James shot out of bed, got dressed, and ran down stairs. He grabbed his letter from the kitchen table. And flipped it open. It had the usual notice that said 'Term will start on Sept. the 1st' and, 'the train will leave from platform 9 ¾ on Kings cross station.' He put that aside, and looked at the next sheet. This one said what books he would need for the next year. "Mum! Can we go to Diagon Alley tomorrow?" He asked looking up. "Huh? Oh! Why not?" Sighed his mother. "Can I invite Sirius to come with us?" Ms. Potter was quiet, he took that as a yes, but as he looked up, she could not be seen.
James went back up stairs to write a letter to Sirius. James wrote the letter, and found an envelope to put the letter in. He found his owl, and then sent it off to give to Sirius.
The next day, he and his mom went to Diagon alley, were he met Sirius, and Lupin! James hadn't expected to him. And what was more, what he was wearing! He was amazed, Lupin had a prefect badge.
Sirius grinned at the awestruck look on his face. Lupin gave a small smile, and told them what had been in his letter. "Dumbledore wants me to try and …" he stopped and gave a quick grin. "Exercised some control over you." Sirius and James broke into laughter and to gather the marauders, chatting happily, walked down the street together.
