Chapter 3:
(Just after the train had stopped)
"James, Sirius, come on I got us a carriage" yelled out Remus to James and Sirius as they got off the train.
"Hey, thanks Remus," replied Sirius as he jumped in the carriage.
"Does this mean we love each other again?" asked James as he grinned at Remus.
"In your dreams mate," laughed Remus
"Hey look guys some first years tipped the boat" yelled out Sirius as the carriage showed the view of the lake. They all moved towards the window looking out at the lake.
"Stupid gits" called out Sirius.
"Ha, they must have hurt squidys feelings," laughed James.
"James they could have gotten seriously hurt" replied Remus, as he didn't see the humour to falling out of a boat.
"Come off it Remus they hurt squidy's feelings, they got what they deserved, last time I hurt his feelings he whacked me across the head with his tentacle, it hurt like hell. I had a lump on the back of my head for weeks.
"I remember that," laughed Sirius "It wasn't a small lump either was it? You had to wear a hat them few weeks"
"Teachers got up me for that, as quoted by Professor McGonagall "it is not school policy take it off this instance!" mimicked James.
All three of them started laughing as James put on a show of what Professor McGonagall said that day.
The carriage came to a stop; they got out and started walking up the steps.
"Hey what do you know?" yelled out James to a small greasy haired boy.
"Sniverley Severus, how you going?" asked James as he looked over at Sirius and Remus, indicating for them to follow him.
They walked over to Snape, who was trembling and holding some schools books.
"Still have your school books with you then Snape, haven't seen you anywhere without them" laughed James.
"What about you Potter where's that snitch your always showing off with?" sneered Snape, as he walked past James and into the oak doors.
"We're not finished with you yet Snape," yelled Sirius.
"Tumasteros" yelled James as he pointed the wand at Snape.
Snape flipped upside down and hung in mid air.
"Same grey underwear hey Snape" laughed James as we walked by Snape and into the Grand Hall.
"Have fun Snapie," laughed Sirius as he to walked past.
Remus ran past Snape without saying anything. No one helped Snape down; he was left there humiliated. He was just happy that they couldn't see his face as his robes hung over his head.
As they walked in to sit down at the Gryffindor table, Professor McGonagall was setting up for the sorting. In the middle of the sorting the doors sprung open and in came Lily. James turned his head to look at her; she looked really pretty in the golden candlelight that lightly lit her face. Lily sat right down the back of the Gryffindor table where hardly anyone sits as everyone likes to be up the front or in the middle, as that's where most of the good food is served.
When the sorting ended Dumbledore gave his normal speech about behaving and never going into the forbidden forest as its dangerous but this speech had a new twist in it.
"Good evening boys and girls, and of course the first years. I trust that your stay with us will be a pleasant one and I welcome you all. I am pleased to say that we are going to have a wonderful year indeed, but before I get to the big news I would like to say that the forbidden forest is out of bounds to all years. I have also been informed that "crazy zonks" products will now be banned as from now. If anyone is caught out with any, there will be punishment".
James and Sirius looked at each other grinning, as they had a miss encounter with Filch last year for buying feather pens that yelled out whenever there was silence.
"Now to the wonderful news I have installed for you all, I have decided to throw a Masked Ball".
The students looked bewildered at each other, some girls started whispering about makeup and what they should wear, others looked around horrified at the idea.
"The decision to what you may wear is your choice, but I say it must be suitable. This masked ball will be a celebration for a certain Professors birthday, yes indeed it is my 100th birthday, I asked permission from the teachers to do something fun for us all. There will be more notice as the date comes nearer but for now I suggest that you dig in".
As he said the last two words food appeared on the tables and everyone started snatching and grabbing.
