Author's Note: Stop throwing tomatoes at me! I'm sooooo sorry, but people, please forgive me. I mean, it's not only this story that seemed forgotten. Wich, wasn't. It's just, hm, well, it isn't like I can say that I did it on purpose, I sure didn't! Hm, well, hope next chapter is better, is all I can say about this one.

Thanks for my beta: Phoebe.

I'm searching for a beta who's first language is English, or better, whoes nationality is English, because I want my story with as much English-voc, as possible. You know, I did research about some word, which I don't remember and in English-English it meant, underwear, but in American-English it meant, trousers, or something...I think it was something with a p...

2. Marauders first prank

James

You walked to the carriages without any sign of animals which would normally pull them. Sirius was having a conversation with Peter and you saw Remus and Evans walking together in the distance.

'Hey, mate?' Sirius waved his hand in front of your face and you sighed.

'What's wrong Padfoot?'

'Oh, nothing, you were just drooling.'

Peter laughed, 'Normally we are the one who are telling you that, Sirius.'

'Yeah, but seriously, I wasn't drooling!' you said and started heading to a lonely carriage. 'Moony is going to deceive Evans then?'

Sirius nodded.

'And what do I have to do again?' Peter asked while the carriage was starting to move.

'You just have to follow Prongsie,' Sirius said.

'Oh, ok. And what about McGonagall and Dumbledore?'

'Pete, we are the Marauders, aren't we?' you said annoyed.

'Yeah, but…'

'What's the problem then?'

'Oh, well. I trust you guys.' Peter said and stopped the discussion you were having.

You were looking out of the window and was happy there were no clouds. Another year at Hogwarts would be starting soon and already your gang had a prank. You looked at your best friends and couldn't help and smiled a little. What would you do without them? In the distance Evans was helping a second year. You searched for Remus. Negative.

'…she's quite delicious.' Sirius told enthusiastically.

'Who you're talking about?'

'Mary, you know the blonde girl. She was in the compartment with Lily and Gretchen.'

'I know Sirius, thank you very much.'

'You're welcome, Prongsie boy,' Sirius laughed and gave a short look at his watch, 'Damn, already six p.m.'

'What's wrong with that?' Peter squeaked and looked confused.

You rolled your eyes, 'Are you really that dense, Wormtail? You know that our Padfoot here has a strange appetite every time he looks at his watch.'

'I don't have a strange appetite,' Sirius said offended. 'I'm just a normal growing boy.'

'Yeah, sure. Whatever you say.' You were happy when the carriage stopped and you could climb out of it. Soon the three of you were standing in front of the castle and Filch opened the huge gate.

'Hey, Filch, nice to see you again!' Sirius cried and you joined him.

'Yeah, can wait till next detention!' you gave him a pat on his back, 'Oh, do you have any new ideas for it, because last year it was so boring, every time the same boring detention. You should try to vary once in a while.'

'Oh, if it isn't mister Potter and his stupid friends. If you weren't in detention every single day I would have much more time to think about other ones,' he said and before you could answer him, he said another thing, 'If you try to do some pranks this year, I swear I'll get you and your friends out of Hogwarts for good!'

'Sure, Filchie, sure,' mumbled Sirius while trying to hide a smile.

'Mister Black, Potter and Pettigrew, please follow the queue.' An annoyed looking witch said while nodding her head to the Great Hall.

'Oh, but professor!' Sirius flirted, 'You look so wonderful tonight. Is that another hairstyle? It's so beautiful.'

'Mister Black I don't have the time for your, er, flattering comments,' professor McGonagall said. 'Please, keep walking.'

'No, no,' Sirius persisted, 'You look a little tired. Should I lead the first years to the Great Hall, professor? I'm sure it isn't that hard. I've seen and learned it from a professional.'

You laughed a little and pushed Peter forward into the Great Hall, leaving Sirius with McGonagall.

'Sirius will do McGonagall then?' Peter asked in disbelieve.

'Yep,' you said, ' and you my friend, you will be doing Dumbledore.'

'What!' Peter started panicking. 'Dumbledore? But he's the difficult one.'

'I know,' you said and ran your hand through your hair when a girl from Ravenclaw waved at you. 'but Pete, believe me there'll be no problems. I've gotta go. Make sure McGonagall isn't there for the first years. Good luck, Pete!'

You walked fast out of sight of the teachers and ran to the third floor. You transfigured a Chocolate Frog into a Dungbomb and made sure that it would work when Sirius would be in the area with professor McGonagall. You started walking to the staircase and saw that everything was clear.

'Good job, Padfoot,' you whispered and waited at the first years. When you realised that they were heading toward you, you smirked a little and looked at the panicked faces of the younger students.

'Welcome at Hogwarts a School for Witchcraft and Wizardry,' you began talking quite seriously, 'My name is professor James the Almighty Potter. I'm your teacher for the next then months of Hogwarts. Before you all go through these doors,' you pointed behind you at the doors of the Great Hall, 'I would like to say a couple of things that you need to know. Hogwarts has four houses; Brave Gryffindor, Smart Ravenclaw, Trustfully Hufflepuff and Slimy Slytherin. Once you've been sorted your house will be like your family. When you follow the rules you'll be kicked out of Hogwarts and when you don't follow them, the Marauders would be pleased to make your stay at Hogwarts as much comfortably as possible, no assurance for that one though. At the end of the year there will be a house cup, be sure Gryffindor will win it. Thank you.'

The first years looked confused at you and you winked to a couple of girls who you thought were adorable.

'Are there any questions?' you asked while you looked at your watch; 6.52 p.m. 'Ok, wait here for a moment while I'll tell the older students the sorting will begin soon and make sure everything is ready.'

You walked trough a little door and watched Peter who was holding his thumbs up. You nodded and said to a five years prefect that the Sorting Ceremony would be starting soon. You searched for Remus and he gave a quick smile before turning back to Evans and continued talking to her animatedly. Then you gazed at the teachers table and saw that Dumbledore was missing.

'Everything is fine,' you said to yourself and walked back to the first years. Just then you heard a voice coming from your pocket.

'Prongs are you there?' the voice said.

You smirked, got the mirror out of your pocket and saw Sirius' face, 'Hi, Padfoot. Shout!'

'McGonagall and Dumbledore will be in the Hospital Wing for at least half an hour.'

'Good. I already gave the speech to our first years and Remus is giving Evans the talk.'

'Plan goes well then. But I think Dumbledore may know what we are up to.'

'He always does,' you said, 'See you at Ceremony, Professor Padfoot.'

'Same to you, prof. Prongs!'

You put your mirror back and opened the door again. The first years were looking frightened and you smirked to all the girls.

'They're expecting us. Make a queue and follow me please.' You said and a smile covered your face. It was going to be a hell of Sorting Ceremony, that's for sure.

You placed the Sorting Hat on the last boy's head and waited impatiently.

'Hufflepuff!' it yelled and you clapped your hands. After you made sure that everything was back to his original place, you stepped to the teacher's table and settled on the right side of Sirius.

'C'mon, man, your turn,' you whispered and Sirius got up.

'To the older students welcome back and welcome at Hogwarts to our new students,' Sirius said, raising his voice. 'First, I've got some announcements.'

'Sirius Black and James Potter!' Evans shrieked. 'What are you two doing?'

Sirius blinked for a second and then smiled. A few girls sighed loudly and you winked at them.

'Miss Evans,' Sirius started. 'would you mind if I made my announcements to our new students?'

Ignoring his politely request Evans walked to your table. A flash of emerald green eyes made you shiver and you saw her fury.

'Black are you mental?' she continued, 'What if professor Dumbledore sees you?'

'Ah, but he's at the Hospital Wing, Evans,' you smirked.

'Did I ask you something Potter? Because I can't help but think that I was talking to Sirius!' she turned and made a gesture at Remus. Remus walked up to her and he asked her what was wrong.

'Your friends over here have lost their minds, that's what's wrong!' she said, 'Aren't you going to do something about it?'

'Why should I,' he asked.

'Because they're breaking rules and you are a Prefect!' Evans blushed due to her madness.

'But, Evans dear, you too are a-,' you started.

'Don't call me that,' she interrupted you.

You shrugged and started to grin, 'Like you wish, Lily dear -,'

'Not that one, you idiot,' she said and she looked like she was ready to explode, 'Don't call me dear, I'm not your dear!'

'Did I say, MY dear,' you asked surprised, 'because I can't remember saying anything like that.'

Evans was losing her temper and looked furious at you.

'I swear Potter if you say one more word I'm going to break your thick, filthy, egocentric-,'

'You're going to do what?' you asked.

'Like I was saying,' she said annoyed, 'I'm going to-,'

'You do what?' you interrupted her again.

'Stop interrupting me!'

'I'm not interrupting you Evans,' you chuckled, 'It's your decision whether you keep talking through my questions or whether you answer my questions and with the last one, than yes, I am afraid that only then I interrupted you.'

'Don't think that you're smart, Potter, because you aren't.'

'Evans,' you questioned, 'I never said I was smart. Sure, now you mention it, I am smart but that's not what we were talking about now, were we?'

In the meantime were all the students watching the two of you going mad after each word from one another. Some started to whisper and others were looking excited at your battle. Sirius on the other hand made sure that the students could start to eat and was having his own dinner as well.

'Oh, please Evans. That's just low,' you laughed after she called you bighead.

'Oh, yeah?' she dared you, 'You think I'm low?'

'To be honest, yes I do.'

'Do you know what Potter, you are the most unbearable-,' she yelled and you were sure the whole castle could hear her. Then you saw something that made your stomach turn.

'Er, Evans,' you hesitated.

'…egoistic-,' she trotted on.

'I think you would care if I-,'

'…bloody-,'

'…said that professor McGonagall-,'

'…pigheaded boy I've ever met!'

'…and Dumbledore were behind you.'

After you said this, she turned pale and whispered something like "Oh, my god.". You felt sorry for her because you knew what her reputation meant to her.

'Miss Evans,' professor McGonagall said disbelievingly. Professor Dumbledore was watching the whole scene with twinkles in his eyes.

'Professor,' Evans begged, turning over to see her Transfiguration professor, 'I didn't – I didn't mean it. I was under a – under a-,'

'Detention, miss Evans,' professor McGonagall said disappointed. 'I never thought you could be so rude, miss Evans. And mister Potter,' she looked at you with anger in her eyes and you winced.

'Yes, professor?' you asked bravely.

'You and mister Black will have detention for disturbing the Sorting Ceremony. It's against the rules. You may not prank on teachers, especially not on the Headmaster. In fact, you may not prank at all.'

'But professor,' Sirius accompanied, 'there are no rulescontaining thatyou may not disturb the Sorting Ceremony.'

You nodded in agreement.

'That's true, Minerva,' chuckled professor Dumbledore.

'Maybe, but they are ought to know that without a rule.'

'You can't give us detention for that one, professor McGonagall,' you said, 'No rule, no detention.'

'Still, mister Potter, you don't hold a prank on your teachers.'

'Oh, ok,' Sirius said, 'we've come to terms. James and I are willing to do the detention for the prank.'

'You don't have a choice mister Black.'

'Of course we have,' you smiled, 'we've chosen to pull this prank and we knew the consequences, so, we actually have a choice.'

'Potter, Black and miss Evans, please go to my office.' Professor McGonagall said ignoring you. 'Mister Lupin, I'm sure I can count on you that you bring the first years safely at their dorm?'

'Of course, professor,' he answered and headed back to the Gryffindor table.

'You three to my office, I'll see you three in twenty minutes.' She walked to professor Sinistra and started talking to her.

You nodded at Sirius and turned to Evans, 'Are you coming?' She looked quite ashamed and worry was all over her face. 'You know you're going to be just fine, right?'

Evans gazed at you and shook her head, 'I'm not going to be fine, Potter. McGonagall hates me. I can't afford her hating me. I'm bad at Transfiguration and now she'll be extra hard on me. I'm doomed. Why did I had to be such a stupid git?' she said throwing her hands in the air.

'You're not stupid, Lily,' Sirius said, helping you to comfort her. 'A git, sure. But far from stupid.'

'Yeah, Sirius's right,' you said and stopped her before she walked to far. 'Have you forgotten your Charms? You're the best of our year!'

'I guess,' she whispered, 'but I just can't afford to lose my good reputation with McGonagall. I need her for my marks.'

'Why?' you asked while raising your eyebrows.

'None of your business, Potter,' she suddenly snapped.

'What's wrong with you, Evans,' you asked confused, 'Every time when I'm trying to help you, you snap at me, shout, or do something. What, did I do something wrong?'

'What's wrong with me you ask?' she roared, completely losing her temper, 'Let me tell you something, POTTER, if there would be something wrong with me, I'm sure that I wouldn't tell you. Not even when the skies turns purple!'

'So you admit that there's something wrong?' Sirius asked.

'Yes,' she said fast and annoyed. But within seconds she realised her mistake, 'I mean no, there's nothing wrong.'

Sirius and you looked at each other and had an understanding look. Sirius pushed Evans into the office of McGonagall and you saw there was one chair missing. You took your wand out and was happy that you could show off Evans. You flicked it and a chair appeared.

'Especially for you, miss Evans,' you bowed.

'What a bloody ego,' she muttered and seated down, 'if it wasn't for you, I wouldn't be sitting here, big-head.'

'Miss Evans, that's the second time this evening I hear you swearing,' professor McGonagall said walking to her desk.

You kept holding your laugh and saw Sirius trying to do the same, but the furious look of Evans made you started to shatter and Sirius couldn't holding it back either. The two of you were bellowing madly. Sirius was bonking with his hands on the desk and you grabbed the arm rest.

Professor McGonagall was staring at you and crossed her arms, 'I don't see what's funny mister Potter and mister Black. Would you please explain?'

'Sorry…professor…,' you laughed uncontrollably and was gasping for air, 'but…her face…hilarious…'

Evans sighed, 'Professor it's all because of Potter. I'm a very nice person, but the thing is, every time I see that boy, I want to scratch him. I want to yell, curse, everything that my voice can bare. He lets my evil side come out of me and I hate that professor.'

You stopped laughing at once.

'Thank you, miss Evans,' she said, 'Now the detentions. Mister Potter and Black a whole month three days a week and for you, miss Evans, one day a week for a month.'

'But professor, please, It's not my-,'

'Miss Evans, I'd expected more from you. I said what I had to say and that's final. Now go to bed, all of you. Tomorrow is a big day and you're a prefect, miss Evans. I hope I don't need to ask for your badge.'

Evans nodded and raised up from her chair, 'Goodnight, professor.'

'Goodnight, miss Evans.'

She stepped out of the office and you yawned, 'I think we should better be going.'

'Yeah,' Sirius stretched out, 'Quidditch's coming and we need to have our beauty sleep. Night, professor.'

She looked confused but nodded, 'That would be for the best, boys. Straight to bed, no stopping at all, do you understand?'

'Yes, professor,' you yawned again, 'just one question, what is the password?'
