Chapter 2

Amanda looked at Lana, wide-eyed.

"Where?" she gasped.

"Do you know something that we don't?"

"Well… I have a cousin that is a son of one of the marauders- Harry Potter," she bragged.

"Harry Potter! Oh my gosh! I mean, I know I'm yelling but I can't help it!" she yelled.

"OMG, Lana can I get your autograph?" she pleaded, pretending to be a crazed fan.

"But really, do you think you can get it from him?"

Amanda laughed at Evelyn's excitement and turned to Lana "So, do you think you can get it?" she asked excitedly.

"Come on, Lana, we need this map! Please, just try your very hardest to get it! And if you can't, bribery is always the answer," she stated matter-of-factly.

"Or, we can asked nicely," Amanda reasoned, "If not then we can make our own. It would be more special that way. We know who the marauders are. There are bound to be books here that they checked out to use to make the map"

"Definitely, plus, things in Hogwarts have changed since they left. Let's just make our own... it'll be a "group craft" making a "cute, little map". Let's start looking for books," she said.

"Well we need a name first."

"Oh, I see. Hmmm ... the … the... I honestly have no idea," Evelyn said.

"Wait, what's that in the fireplace!" they all shouted (and not very synchronized, might I say).

A boy with jet-black hair, green eyes, and a thin scar on his head came out of the fireplace. He brushed himself up, looked around, and smiled. "Hey."

"Whoa," Amanda said. "That was quick."

"Yeah, Lana sent a message and I got it right away. I'm Harry, by the way. Harry Potter," Harry said.

Amanda smiled. "I can see that," she said, shaking his hand.

"Oh-My-Gosh! You're really Harry Potter?" she yelled.
"I mean-" she said, straightening herself up.

"Hi Harry, I'm Evelyn. Nice to meet you," she said coolly, offering her shaking hand.

"Oh, where are my manners. I'm Amanda."

"Where are your manners? You lost them a few years ago, Mandy," Evelyn said, raising an eyebrow.

"Hey Evelyn, Amanda, it's nice to meet you guys too," he said, grinning.

"So, what exactly did you want?" Harry smirked at his cousin.

"Well, we wanted to know more about the marauders map- since we are practically the new marauders. Also, we seem to be in a tight fix... do you have any ideas for a name for us?" Evelyn explained, answering for Lana.

She liked to talk a "little" too much, and she wasn't going to hide it.

"Yeah, the name is the hardest part," Amanda mused.

He laughed. "Well I'm not sure how my father and godfather made the map. But, Remus was definitely involved as well." He didn't mention Peter.

"I do know where it is though. And you could keep the name of 'The Marauders' and kind of have it passed down."

"That's a good idea, we should do that," Amanda said.

"I know Remus will be happy," he said. "So, about the map…"

"What about it? Do you have it?" Evelyn asked excitedly.

"I do, but I don't think Remus wants me to give it away," Harry said.

"What!" the marauders yelled in unison.

"Sorry girls," he said.

"You'll just have to make your own."
