Disclaimer: I do not own Sirius Black, Remus Lupin, James Potter, or Lily Evans.
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!
Last time:
"Thanks. It's good to get that off my chest."
She scrunched up her face in confusion and he saw Kadasa before him. He grinned.
"Merlin you look like my sister when you do that."
She shrugged. "Learned from the best. Now what about this thing off your chest?"
He sighed running a hand through already messy hair. "Only me and the Marauders know about this stuff. We've kept it a secret for years and… it kinda grows so much until you feel as though you'll explode if you don't tell anyone. I thought Sirius would tell Kadasa for sure and Remus would tell Sam."
Lily shook her head. "If they knew then they'd hint it at me."
"But you're as dense as a cow so that'd be no help really," he stated walking out the door.
Her eyes widened. "James Potter you brat!"

"Ha! I won!" Students in the common room all turned to see Kadasa jump up, arms in the air laughing. She pointed to Sirius. "I told you I'd beat you!"
He scowled at her. "You cheated."
She stuck her tongue out. "Did not!" She turned and rushed up the stairs to the Head Girl's dorm shouting, "Lily! Sam! I beat him!"
Everyone turned back to what they were doing as Sirius put away the chess pieces and headed up to the Head boy's dorm.
Flopping onto his bed he looked around the room. Remus was sitting on the windowsill, staring out over the dark grounds, one leg pulled up to his chest, left arm resting on it while his right leg dangled towards the ground, right arm around his waist.
"Oi. Moony." Remus looked over. "What's on your mind?" Remus sighed and looked back outside.
"Full moon next week."
"Good. I've been needing to get out of here."
Remus sent him a scowl then turned back towards the window. James flung open the door to the room then slammed it, walking over to his bed grabbing his pillow and stuffing it to his face. They heard a muffled scream and glanced at each other before looking back at the boy who let out a calm breath.
"Hey guys," he stated.
"What the hell was that?" Sirius asked after a moment.
James scowled. "Miss Evans. She was telling me off because I was making fun of some 1st years. They thought it was funny but no, she didn't."
Sirius and Remus snorted trying to hide their laughter, returning to whatever they were doing.
"What?" James asked. They shook their heads. "What!"

Kadasa grinned as she found her cards and jumped off her bed, landing on the ground in the center of the Head Girl's room.
"Found my cards!" she chirped.
"All right," Lily chirped back. "Let's play."
"Nuh uh," Kadasa stated. "We have to set bets."
"Bets?" Lily and Sam chorused.
"Yup. If I win, Lily has to allow Laverne to do her make up for the Ball at the end of the year."
"Fine." Lily stated. "But if I win you have to wear a skirt to Hogsmeade tomorrow!"
"Um…" Sam scratched her head. "I don't know what to bet?"
Lily tapped her chin. "How about…"
"How about Lily has to dance a total of 5 times with James Potter." Kadasa smirked as Lily sent her a glare. Sam nodded.
"Sounds good."
"It's on," Kadasa grinned evilly.
Sam and Lily started getting nervous, for the hundredth time wondering if they ever should have made friends with the blond haired girl.
At the same time…
"So what are the bets again?" James asked halfway through their card game.
"If I win, Remus goes out on a date with Sam," Sirius stated.
"If I win, you have to announce to the common room that you sleep with a teddy bear," Remus stated.
"And if you win, Sirius can't eat snacks for a week." Sirius let out a dog-like whine.
James grinned. "I really hope that I win."
"Jaaaaaaammmmmmmeeeeeeeeessssssssssssssssiiiiiiiiiieeeeeeeeeeeeee!"

Sirius ran a hand through his hair as he walked downstairs the next day.
"Hey Sirius!" Remus called running up to his friend. "Go check out Kadasa."
He frowned. "What's wrong with her?" he asked cautiously. Remus just grinned.
They walked downstairs and found Kadasa sitting on a couch, arms crossed, eyes shut and scowling.
"She's… a girl," Sirius stated.
"OF COURSE I'M A GIRL IDIOT!" Kadasa shouted. Most of the common room started laughing at the fact that Sirius was now cowering under Kadasa's gaze, being a full half a foot taller that her.
"Well… I mean… you're wearing a skirt." She scowled at him and flopped back down on the couch.
Indeed she was wearing a skirt, a black skirt that came out slightly and swung with her movements, falling around her ankles. She wore a royal blue shirt, her hair in a French braid and looking as if she was about to murder the first person who commented on it.
"Let's just go to Hogsmeade all right?" Sam asked.
Kadasa sighed. "Do I have to?"
"Yes. Let's go." Kadasa sighed again and headed for the door when Sirius grabbed her arm, sliding in around his.
"You need an escort m'lady," he stated and she raised an eyebrow.
"You're supposed to be a gentleman now?"
"Yup. Now come along Lady Kadasa." She rolled her eyes but followed after him. Sam and Lily sent each other a grin and followed after their friend, James and Remus following after them.

"Thank Merlin!" Kadasa cried out in relief. "I can't stand wearing this blasted thing!" she cried, pointing to the skirt.
"And whose fault is that?" Lily asked.
"Whoever decided we were going to have bets!" Kadasa yelped.
"That was you," Sam stated quietly.
"Oh… yeah… well it's still Lily's fault cause she bet me that I had to wear a skirt! I hate skirts!" As Kadasa raved, she started up the stairs, Lily laughing and following close behind.
"Um… Sam?"
She looked over at Remus with a smile, Kadasa and Lily continuing up the stairs. "Yeah?"
"I was wondering… if maybe… you would… go to Hogsmeade with me tomorrow?"
She blinked. "You mean… like… a date?"
"Um… yeah."
She smiled. "Sure."
He grinned. "Thanks."
She nodded. "So I'll… see you later?"
"Yeah. I'll see ya."
She sent him another smile and turned heading upstairs. When she got to the dorm Kadasa and Lily looked over as she shut the door behind her.
"There you are. We wondered where you had disappeared to." Kadasa stated already out of her skirt and back into pants.
"Guess what guys." Sam asked walking towards her bed.
"What?"
She flopped onto her bed. "Remus asked me out."
"WHAT!"
"Isn't that awesome! He asked me out! We're going to Hogsmeade tomorrow!"
"Yay!" Lily hugged Sam. "That's great!" She looked at Kadasa. "Right Asa?"
Kadasa looked like a sad puppy. "Aw… Ka'sa needs more chocolate though."
Sam giggled. "I'll get you some when I go, all right?"
She grinned brightly and hugged her. "Thanks Ookami! Ka'sa loves you!"

Sirius watched as Remus paced back and forth through the head boy's dorm. After 15 minutes he got dizzy and sighed leaning back.
"You're gonna put a dent in the floor mate," he stated.
Remus looked up then bit his lip. "What if she asks me about something that relates to being a werewolf?"
Sirius rolled his eyes but James answered. "Either lie or come out and tell the truth. She'll either hate you or love you for it." Sirius rolled his eyes again and returned to devouring his cupcake. "It's a good thing Kadasa's not here. She'd steal one of my cupcakes." As if by fate the door slammed open.
"Hello boys!" Kadasa chirped.
"Can't you knock?" Sirius asked grumpily.
As she turned around to go back outside and knock, James sighed. "Just come in Kadasa. We know you'll do it anyway the next time."
She grinned and flopped onto Sirius's bed next to him. "Whatcha all doing?"
"Not much," James replied. "You?"
"Sam is talking about her date, Laverne about her boyfriend, and Lily telling them to shut up cos she's reading." She shrugged. "I got bored, came here."
"Real reason?" James asked dully.
She smirked and turned to Remus. "Gots some tips for ya Remy." He raised an eyebrow at the nickname but didn't say anything. "One, Sam wants you to be honest. Lie to her about not being comfortable with something and she'll know right away."
About this Remus mentally gulped and prayed she wouldn't ask about anything related to the wolf.
"Two, Sam doesn't like fancy stuff. She'd be happy with a simple card for her birthday instead of rings and necklaces, known from past experience. Three, Sam isn't fancy. You might see her wear two pieces of jewelry in her lifetime. Four… I forget what four is but just be yourself all right?"
She suddenly lost her smiling mask. "And let me tell you this Remus. You're one of my friends… but if you hurt my Sam, you will regret it. Understood?" He nodded. Grinning again she nodded once. "All right then. "Remy, Jamesie, Syrup."
"Syrup?" Sirius asked.
"See ya later," she replied and disappeared out the door. As soon as she was gone Sirius let out a cry.
"She stole one of my cupcakes!"

Remus sat in the common room at 5:30 on Saturday. They were going to go to Hogsmeade, have dinner, then come back. He wore a simple brown sweater with a thick tan stripe across his chest, and a pair of jeans. Footsteps on the stairs echoed and he looked up, Sam walking down. She was dressed in a plain emerald turtle neck with a black vest over it and a knee length dark denim skirt.
She smiled brightly. "Let's go." Remus nodded as they headed out of the portrait.
Kadasa sighed and turned to Sirius. "Now what do we do? James and Lily aren't speaking to each other, Remus and Sam are going on a date… we have no one to pick on."
He sighed regrettably. "No. No one to pick on. Poor, poor Sirius."
"Poor, poor Asa." They sighed again before she jumped to her feet. "Shall we go to the kitchens?"
"Yup. Let's go."
"Chocolate pie?"
"Of course."
Sarah, who had watched the entire exchange, sweat dropped. I knew I shouldn't have joined the quidditch team with those two weirdoes.
