Chapter 11

" And this here is the tapestry of Earl the Elder. Remember that time Peter threw up in front of it?"

" And the time we tried that spell and discovered that if you accidentally say s instead of f you end up with buffalo!"

" Oi! Hurry up Chuck ,we've still got a lot of ground to cover."

" Why did we agree to follow them again?" mumbled Ron.

" Can't remember." answered Harry. He suddenly realized Lily's warning to not take advice form James was rather good advice.

" Their taking us all the way around the castle." complained Hermione," At this rate, we'll only just barely get back in time for curfew."

" Aw, cheer up Hermione, this is a once in a lifetime opportunity, remember." teased Ginny.

" Enough talking back there." hollered James from about 8 meters ahead of them, " Come on up here, we've got a short cut to show you."

Ron groaned, " Won't that take us up to the 3rd floor?"

Harry nodded," Yup."

" Come on Chuck," said Sirius, " You can go first." He exchanged grins with Remus.

Ron groaned again and jogged up ahead.

" Where on earth did Chuck even from?" asked Ginny.

Harry shrugged, " Who knows." Ever since they'd left the Great Hall, all of the marauders had started calling Ron 'Chuck', for some reason. Harry pressumed it was because of his horrible first impression with Sirius.

" Come on Henry," said Remus," You next."

Harry sighed, followed Remus through the passage.

----------

An hour and a half later they stood in front of the Fat Lady's portrait.

" Finally," muttered Ron, slightly out of breath, " They've had us going in circles for hours!"

"

More like figure eights I think, " Harry mumbled.

" May we welcome you to the Gryffindor common room." announced Remus, " Your central headquarters. Where you can do homework and study to your hearts content."

" My hearts already content." Muttered Peter, " I've got enough learning done for a lifetime."

" Ah, come on Peter," said James, " lighten up! It's our last year at Hogwarts."

" So how do you get in?" Hermione interrupted, " To the common room I mean."

" Oh it's simple," drawled Sirius, " you just say the password."

"Yes, well will you hurry up with it then!" asked the Fat Lady, " I can't wait up all night for you."

" Uh, right." Sirius looked at James," Go for it mate, what's the password?"

James shrugged, " What are looking at me for?"

" You're head boy, James." said Remus exasperatedly, " Don't tell me you don't know the password."

"Erm, should I?" James asked sheepishly.

Remus sighed.

" I thought the head boy and girl always set the password at the beginning of term." Peter said, confused.

James groaned loudly, " Why didn't Evans say so earlier then?"

Ginny grinned up at Harry, " Should we tell them?"

" Tell us what, beautiful?" Sirius crept up behind them. Ginny and Harry jumped apart.

"Uh," Harry stuttered, " nothing, it's just we were talking with Lily Evens earlier, and she said she was going to set the passwords before...before James." he ended lamely.

Sirius let out a bark of a laugh," See James," he said, " she likes you more already."

" Shut up, Sirius." James grumbled, crossing his arms and leaning against the wall.

" Well am I suppose to wait here all night for you?" the Fat Lady asked.

" Shut it." James muttered.

" Well I say." the Fat Lady huffed.

" Erm, couldn't we ask one of the professors for the password?" Hermione asked, timidly.

Remus shrugged, " I guess we could always go ask Professor McGonagall."

" Or you could just say please." Lily walked up from behind them. James's hand jumped to his hair.

" E-Evens." he said," I mean, Lily. How've you been?"

Sirius rolled his eyes, " Real smooth Prongs." he muttered.

Lily eyed Harry and the other time travelers, " I see you didn't take my advice."

" Well, we-", started Hermione.

Lily held up a hand and smiled, " Save it. I'm sure you understand what I was talking about now."

" I think we've got the idea." Ginny muttered.

" What's the password, Lily?" Remus asked.

" Yes, tell them already will you." the Fat Lady said," I don't have all-"

" Ah, leave it, will you!" groaned Sirius.

Lily sniffed, " Tolerance" she said.

The Fat Lady nodded and swung open.

" Wait until you see the common room." Peter said, excitedly," It's brilliant."

Harry tried to curb the hatred that had collected in his throat. He was having trouble remembering that Worm- Peter, hadn't done anything yet. He distraced himself by trying to look amazed as the group clamored through the protrait hole.

" Wicked." said Ron, approvingly. He threw a grin in Harry's direction.

" Girls dormitories are on the left, up the stairs,boys, same on the right." Lily explained.

" Yeah, yeah, yeah," Sirius yawned," We'll take it from here Madame head girl."

" Come on boys, " James said, " time to say goodnight to the ladies."

" Isn't it a bit early?" Harry asked.

" Yeah, well, you know the old saying, 'early to bed early to rise'." James quoted.

"I didn't know you knew that saying, Potter." Lily scoffed.

" There's a lot you don't know about me, Evens." James answered quickly.

" Okay." said Remus loudly, " See you in the morning then." And he grabbed Peter's robe collor and pulled him up the stairs.

" I'll show you where our room is." Lily said to Hermione and Ginny.

" Alright, thanks Lily." Ginny said, then, making sure she was in full veiw of Sirius, leaned up and kissed Harry, " See you all in the morning then." She trotted off toward the stairs and followed Lily and Hermione up.

Sirius' mouth dropped, " You mean, you...and she...but I."

" Stop you're mumbling Sirius," James said, still staring at the empty stairs the girls had just climbed," I can't understand you."

Sirius shut his mouth with a sigh, " Didn't even have a chance." He muttered to himself.

Ron snickered. Sirius looked up.

" What are you laughing at?", he asked, " Come on, up you go Chuck."

The final four climbed the stairs and entered the door marked 7th Years. Six 4-poster beds circled the room, each with a truck at the end. Harry located the one labeled, Henry Thomas, and, yawning, opened it and fumbled around in it for his pajamas.

" Well I'd say that went alright, don't you think." Ron whispered from the bed next to him.

" I guess so." Harry shrugged, " See in the morning I suppose."

Ron yawned, " Yeah, well, night mate." As he pulled the curtains around his bed closed, his stomach growled," Wish we'd gotten more to eat though." Harry heard him mumble.

Harry chuckled, "Good night Ryan." he said, before he fell into bed himself. His last thought was content it seemed and how peaceful the 80's seemed. And how good it was to actually meet his parents.

---------------

" Ouch, Moony you're on my foot."

" Well if someone would get their elbow out of my kidney."

" Sorry, I thought that was a towel."

" We have really got to find another place for this."

" And where do you suggest?"

" Well not in the bathroom."

" You just let me know when you think of somewhere else they can't hear us."

" It's called a silencing spell."

" Guys! Will you knock it off? Now, what do think we should do about the newbies?"

" I don't like either of them. They seem...abnormal. I mean, did you see the one just staring at Prongs. He was staring at him for a good 5 minutes!"

" Your just saying that because your mad the girls taken."

"...So?"

" So, that not the point, you two! Now cut it out, we have a serious problem-don't Pads. What are we going to do come full moon?"

" I thought Sirius said we were going to drug them."

" Well that is one way, but can any of you think of another."

"I guess we'll go with the sleeping potions then. Alright, Moony? When's the next-"

" 2 weeks, 5 days."

" I think we should have enough time. Wormy, you and Moony check it out in the library tomorrow, alright."

" Alright ,Wormtail?Wormtail. Peter!"

" I think he's gone to sleep mate."

" Should we just leave him here then"

" Unless someone feels like levitating him to his bed."

"..."

" Right, thought so. Night."

" Good night."

" Night."
