I do own Kadasa Mori and Samantha Selene and any of the characters I make up along the way.
I also don't own the places mention in here (Ex: Hogwarts, Hogwarts Express, Platform 9 ¾'s, etc.) Unless they're of my own creations (Ex: Sam's American home)
I never want to own Wormtail so you may have him.
Oh and I don't own any of the teachers… unless of course I make them up.
Yup… I think that's about it. Now on with the story!

In the end, it was Sarah and her twin sister Ann Scarlet who became the beaters, Thomas Johnson, the only one to get the quaffle past Ben, becoming the chaser.
"We have the best team ever!" Kadasa chirped.
"I know. We're gonna kick Slytherin's butt!" Sirius echoed.
Sarah looked over. "Is that who we're up against?"
"Yup." Ben said looking at the calendar. "In… 3 weeks. We'll have practice at least once or twice a week so old players can get used to playing and new players can learn our techniques."
Kadasa grinned. "And learn our goal right?"
"Kadasa…" Ben warned.
"What's our goal?" Sarah asked.
"To get Ben to swear before he graduates!"
"I can kick you off you know."
"You're no fun." Kadasa stated sticking her tongue out. "All for it?" Everyone cheered except Ben.
"My team is turned against me. How are we ever going to win?"
"Because we rock!" Sirius stated, everyone cheering again. Ben sighed but this time smiled. At least they'd have teamwork trying to get him to swear.

His Parents' Time
Chapter 7 - Walk the Halls (Thursday, Sep 15th)

Lily sighed as she got ready for another day of classes. She pulled on her robes just as the door flew open and a frantic Kadasa searched through the room.
"Ah! Where is it!" She cried.
Lily raised an eyebrow. "What are you looking for?"
"My potions essay…. Damn it! I bet Sirius nicked it!"
"Uh… Kadasa…"
"Find now. Talk later!" She cried as she sprinted out the door.
Lily raised an eyebrow looking at the essay lying on the table beside her and sighed. Footsteps on the stairs sounded and she looked over as she brushed out her hair.
James appeared, still looking after him running a hand through messy hair. "Uh… does anybody have any clue why Kadasa just ran me over?" He asked then blinked, realizing Lily was the only one in the room, and she was watching him from her mirror. "Hey Evans."
She nodded her hello, setting the brush on the table and running a hand through hair frowning before she grabbed a ponytail and spun it into a messy bun like Kadasa's hair today.
"So, may I ask why in four words Kadasa asked about an essay?" He stated, lounging in the doorway.
"Because she's been hanging out with Sirius too long. Her language is starting to deteriorate."
He snorted. "And here I thought you'd say it was because I was her brother."
"It was a hard decision."
He grinned before turning on his heel. "See you in class Evans."
"Hm." After she was sure he was gone a smile spread across her features.

K: Hey Lily. You and James have to walk the halls tonight don't you?
Lily silently groaned during D.A.D.A. Every other week Lily and James walked the halls together on Thursday night. That was decided during their Prefect meeting almost two weeks ago.
L: It's Thursday isn't it?
K: ((rolls eyes)) obviously.
L: Merlin! I hate Thursdays!
S: ((snorts in disbelief))
K: Yeah. As if we hadn't heard that a million times.
Lily knew they were each thinking totally different things. Sam knew she had a crush on James while Kadasa though she hated his guts. She sighed, doodling a feather absentmindedly since that's what was lying on her desk.
Kadasa and Sam hadn't written anything back, Kadasa probably still fuming over the fact that she had frantically searched for the essay that Lily had, Sam thinking about… whatever Sams usually thought about.
Something poked her back and she jumped, glanced at Professor Flitwick who turned his back and she spun around, grabbed whatever it was and spun back around. The teacher hadn't noticed so she unfolded the parchment and recognized Sirius' writing.
S: Hey Lily!
L: Hi Sirius. What do you want?
S: Now is that any way to treat me?
L: Yes. What do you want?
S: Just to bug you… or Kadasa. Doesn't matter which but you were in closer range.
Lily rolled her eyes and shoved the paper to Kadasa who frowned and picked it up. She scowled as she read it and sent Sirius a glare before picking up her quill and writing back.
Lily smiled and glanced at Sam who was also smiling before they tuned back to the teacher.

"…beetroot… worms…snail…" Lily muttered to herself as she worked on her potions essay. Finishing up her last few words she stiffened as she heard someone call her.
"Hey Lily Flower!" She groaned looking up at James as he pulled the chair out next to her and flopped into it. "Fancy meeting you here. Must be fate."
She rolled her eyes. "It's not fate stupid. It's called, this is a library and this is where students go to works, as such one Lily Evans has checked in and was working until a James Potter had to come and bother her!" She snapped at the end.
He held up his hands in an 'I surrender' move. "Hey… cool it Fire Flower." She rolled her eyes and he grinned. "Like it? Just made it up."
"I actually prefer Lily Flower." She muttered before she could stop herself then slapped a hand over her mouth and looked up at him in horror as his eyebrows raised and a grin spread across his features.
"Really?" She glared at him and he seemed to be thinking about this. "This could prove to be the start of a closer than friendship relationship between you and me." He winked. "How bout it?"
"I'd rather have a relationship with a frog." She spat.
"Now, now. Don't be such a spitfire." She growled at him. "Tiger Lily, what are we gonna do with you?"
She rolled her eyes. "How many different names can you come up with!"
"You don't wanna know." He grinned. She raised an eyebrow. "I wrote them all down once… think it was about 25 with 'Lily' in it and 'Flower' in the other 15." She rolled her eyes again. "Now up up! We have rounds to do."
She blinked and looked at her watch. "But it's only 7:30… it's 7:30!"
"Exactly why I was coming to get you!" She stuffed her books into her bag and jumped to her feet tugging James after her. "Hey! Hey! Where's the fire?"
"Shuddup and hurry!"
Outside of the library they bumped into a few people who had questions for the prefects, Lily writing them down to give to them next meeting. They finally headed towards Gryffindor tower fifteen minutes later and they bumped into Kadasa.
"Hiya!" She chirped. "Fancy meeting you here!"
Lily rolled her eyes. "It's not fate!"
Kadasa blinked in confusion. "I never said it was."
She ran a hand through her hair. "I'm not gonna be able to survive the night with you Potter. I really am not."
Kadasa giggled. "What'd he do now?"
"Met me with the same line you did."
"Oooh. James!" She wagged her finger at him. "I scold you. You can't say that on a date!"
He grinned. "But it's my best pick up line!"
"It's not a date!" Lily cried.
Kadasa giggled. "Of course it's not Lils." James grinned while Lily groaned. "Oh damn." Kadasa said looking at the clock. "It's past all-to-bed-time. You guys gotta start rounds and I've gotta get back to the common room."
"We'll walk you back." Lily commanded. James started to protest but with a glare she shut him up. He certainly didn't want to spend the entire night with a mad-as-you-know-what Lily.
Kadasa giggled, looking from Lily to James when a crash sounded. They all blinked then rushed towards the noise to find Peeves unscrewing another chandelier.
"Peeves!" Kadasa called and he paused then turned and grinned nastily.
"Mori!"
She grinned. "How are you, you annoying thing? Have a long summer without anyone to prank? Aw, poor thing."
"And what about you Mori? Annoy any ghosts so much they wished they had gone to the other world?"
She shrugged. "Not really. You're my only ghostly target."
"Peeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeves!" A croak of a voice sounded. They all froze then cackling Peeves flew down the hall, bouncing off the walls and holding his feet as Filch turned the corner wheezing then took off after the poltergeist.
Lily, Kadasa, and James glanced at each other grinned and tore off in the opposite direction in case Filch remembered he'd just past students out of bed. Laughing and panting as they reached the entrance to Gryffindor tower, Kadasa thanked them.
"I'll… see… you… guys… tomorrow. Have… a … good night!" She chirped and headed inside, Lily and James turning and starting their rounds.

"I personally like Lily Flower the best." James said with a nod.
"Mm." Lily replied reading over her D.A.D.A. notes.
"Or Tiger Lily."
"Mm."
"… Probably Tiger Lily."
"Mm."
"Lily Flower is like stating a Lily's a flower while Tiger Lily is specifying what kind of Lily it is."
"Mm."
"Or how about Fire Flower?"
"Mm."
"Spitfire?"
"Mm."
"How bout Lily the spitfire?"
"Mm."
"Or even better, Tiger Lily Flower, the amazing spitfire."
"Mm."
"Are you even listening?"
"Mm."
"Do you like me?"
"No."
"So you are listening?"
"Mm."
He sighed. "Well this is fun."
"Mm… what's a thestral?"
"A horse."
"What's it look like?"
"Dunno."
"You don't know?"
"Nope. Kadasa does. Ask her."
"How does Kadasa know what a thestral looks like?"
He shrugged. "Remember when she wigged out in our 5th year when we had to get into the carriages? Something about leathery winged horses pulling them?"
"Yeah…"
"McGonagall told her they were thestrals."
"How can Kadasa see the thestrals and we can't?"
"Supposedly you can only see them if you've seen somebody die. But Kadasa's weird so she probably can just see them anyhow."
Lily smacked him upside the head, not voicing the question 'then why didn't she see them earlier' instead looking at her watch. "Uh… Potter?"
"Huh?"
"We have to go back to the common room. Our shift's over."
"Oh. Well, it's that way." They turned right and while walking down the hall, Lily thought of an idea.
"Hey Potter?"
"Yeah?"
"Should we create a truce?" Lily asked making James stop dead and almost fall over.
"Huh?" He asked.
"A truce. I'll try not to bite your head off if you stop hitting on me."
He blinked then shrugged. "Sure."
"Good. Truce is set."
"But of course I think you'll be missing all of my comments."
"You're such a jerk."
"Am not."
"Are too."
"Am not."
"Are too."
"Am not."
"Are too."
"Am not."
"Are too."
"Am not."
"Are too."
"Am not."
"Wait… what are we fighting over again?"
"… I dunno."
"Oh. Okay."
They walked in silence again until a few minutes later James grinned.
"Hey Lily?"
"Yeah?"
"Am not."
"Are too."

"So how did it go last night?" Sam asked at breakfast the next morning.
Lily shrugged. "We made a truce."
"You did!" Sam, Sirius, Remus and Kadasa asked at once, Kadasa looking over from pouring Sirius a goblet of juice and it ended up overflowing.
"Yeah…" Lily stated watching as they yelped and tried to clean it up.
"Lily won't bite my head off-" James started.
"If Potter doesn't try to hit on me." Lily finished.
James sighed. "And it's going to be quite hard with this beautiful Tiger Lily sitting near me in class."
She rolled her eyes. "That's hitting on me."
"No. Hitting on you would be asking you out and stuff like that. This is complimenting your beauty."
"Two chocolate frogs says the truce is gone within the week." Sirius muttered.
She snorted. "Two says it's within the day." They shook hands and resumed eating as the two argued.

Author's NoteOMG! It's been forever since I updated! I'm so mad at myself! Please forgive Kadasa for not updating in forever!
This was just another filler chapter. Coming up next will be the first quidditch match of the year.
Next Chapter: Chapter 8 First Quidditch Match (told ya!): Gryffindor versus Hufflepuff"All right team! Today we're up against Hufflepuff." Everyone booed and Ben laughed. "Yes I know. Now, let's do our best and beat their a-I mean butts!"
Kadasa and Sirius high fived. "Yes! We almost got him to start swearing!" Kadasa chirped. Sirius nodded in agreement, sending the team into laughter before they headed out onto the field.
The commentator was Laverne. They heard her voice echoing over the field.
"Welcome to the first match of the year; Gryffindor versus Hufflepuff!" Madam Hooch walked into the center of the circle. She grabbed the snitch and tossed it into the air.
"Madam Hooch has just released the golden snitch!" Laverne cried.
"I want a clean game teams." She stated then picked up the quaffle and tossed it up, blowing her whistle. As the six chasers dove for it, the two keepers headed for their posts, the two seekers flying high into the air.
"The quaffle has been released and the game begins!"
