Dedication: I officially dedicate this story to Caroline Corbett, one of my two most best friends
A/N: so this idea came to me randomly a while ago, so now I'm acting on it. As you can prolly tell from the title, it's a take – off on the movie John Tucker Must Die. It might not be the greatest cuz I wrote the majority of it early in the morning and really late at night, but I tried. duh
Chapter One: James Potter Must Die
James Potter must die, I'm not even kidding. He is the most conceited prat I know in both of my worlds, muggle and magical. For the past five and a half years he's been driving me nuts. BLOODY NUTS. He and the rest of his little gang basically run the social life of Hogwarts. Oh, by the way, it's almost Christmas break here at Hogwarts in the middle of my sixth year. A year and a half left to deal with Potter and then I'll hopefully never see him again for the rest of my life. Honestly, someone really needs to take this prick down a notch or two, and I would be incredibly happy if that someone were me. But I can't do this alone, who else would hate Potter enough to help me? The guys at this school look up to him as their role model, while the girls fawn over him. Who can help? People who have reason to dislike Potter, who have been hurt by him, who might want revenge. There's one group of girls I know who can help. The Ex-Girlfriends. Time to go finish transfiguration, until next plotting session (just kidding),
- Lily
The next day Lily found out who had ever dated – and been dumped by – James Potter. The three girls she asked for help were all too willing to assist her, but there was one problem. All these girls were from different houses; Gryffindor, Ravenclaw, and Hufflepuff, and none of them liked each other. She was going to have to figure out how to get them all to work together.
The one good thing was that all four of them were staying at Hogwarts… as was Potter and his faithful partner in crime Sirius Black.

"Ah, it feels good to be on break."
"You're telling me mate."
James Potter and Sirius Black collapsed onto the good couches by the fire in the Gryffindor common room.
"Too bad Moony and Wormtail had to go home for Christmas break."
"Yeah well mate think about it, you know Moony has his furry little problem, and Wormtail's are paranoid about safety now, so there's no way either of them would be able to stay. But yeah, it is too bad. Think about the mayhem we could have caused!"
Sirius grinned back at James.
"Who says we can't?" He said.
James sat up, grinning too.
"We've pretty much got the place to ourselves besides maybe 12 other people, perfect targets!"
The two pranksters set about planning practical jokes, while not far down the corridor another small group, made up of four girls, sat plotting something slightly more than a practical joke.

Lily stood up after they had all introduced themselves.
"We all have one thing in common, we want this man," here she waved her wand at the blackboard and a picture of James showed up, "to go down, and go down hard. You all have dated him, and therefore know his strengths and weaknesses. We all know that his biggest strength, and yet also his biggest weakness is his ego. I say we injure his ego, we injure him. The other thing he cares about most is his reputation. What happens if his reputation goes down the drain? We injure his reputation, we injure him. Do any of you have a few ideas?"
Jessica James, the Ravenclaw, spoke up.
"I say we brainstorm some ideas over break, but not put them into action until school starts again. That way there are more people here so the blow will be bigger."
The other Gryffindor girl, named Ariel, laughed.
"Spoken like a true Ravenclaw, no wonder James went out with you. I'll admit, you've got brains, but I mean seriously, can't you see what he went for in me rather than you? Pretty and smart for me, versus smart and, well, a little lacking in the beauty department don't you think?" she smirked.
The Hufflepuff girl had to restrain Jessica as she lunged for Ariel, the Gryffindor.
"Guys, GUYS! Aren't we supposed to be working together? This isn't going to work if we keep fighting. And besides, everyone knows he only went out with you Ariel to get closer to Lily."
Ariel gasped, and started to retaliate when Lily yelled,
"Stop it guys, just stop it. Jess, you're right. Let's get some ideas together and meet up again later. Before break is over, so we can work out our plan. Oh and Kate, yeah he did probably go out with Ariel just to try and get closer to me, but you all know I hate the guy, which is why we're planning to bringing him down. Good night."

Lily sat on a couch opposite the two remaining marauders. She had a roll of parchment with her, and her favorite emerald ink. James looked up as she sat down.
"Hey there Evans, whatcha doin'?"
"If you have to know Potter, I'm doing homework, some extremely important homework." she said.
James laughed.
"Good one Evans, you know we don't ever have any work over the holidays. Homework," He snorted. "Suuuuuure."
Lily rolled her eyes.
"It's called extra-credit, something I'm sure you two have never heard of."
Sirius stretched and yawned
"Actually we have, we just don't need to use it. We're smart enough as it is. Seriously Evans, which could you see us doing more? Quidditch practice or extra homework?"
Lily's head snapped up. "Of course," she thought to herself. "He revolves around Quidditch, what happens if he can't play, or better yet, cant play as well as he usually does?"
She started scribbling on her parchment faster than ever to make sure she got everything down before she forgot any of it.
"Whoa Evans, what did I say?" Sirius looked bewildered, and slightly shocked that someone could write that fast.
"Let me ask you something Black." Lily replied. "What would happen if all of a sudden you couldn't play Quidditch well?"
Sirius stood up proudly and put a fist on his chest.
"I would die!" he proclaimed.
"And so would the rest of the girls in Hogwarts, so seriously, I mean REALLY, what would you do?"
James gave her a look that said, "How incredibly thick are you?"
He told Lily,
"We'd have extra practice."
"But what if you're grades were falling and the pitch was booked so you couldn't have practice?" retorted Lily, getting more brain waves as the seconds ticked.
"Well then I suppose we'd be screwed then, wouldn't we?" James said.
"Exactly, Potter."
Sirius said angrily
"What's that supposed to mean Evans?"
Lily looked over at him.
"Merely explaining the point of extra credit and when you might need it. Good night"
And she walked up the stairs to her dormitory.
James and Sirius stared after her, their mouths open.
"What was all that about?" asked Sirius.
"Mate," replied James, "I have no idea."

Wow, that went…well. At least now I have some ideas of how to knock this guy off his pedestal. I'm pretty sure too that neither of them realized what was going on, and that they're just confused now. I will go and find the other girls tomorrow or the day after to swap plans with them. Well, sometime in the next week anyway. I really owe one to Kate for helping me out tonight with the other two. I just hope that she won't be jealous and start another catfight. Ah well, I know her from herbology and she probably wont. We'll just have to work together to keep the others from getting us ALL pissed off. The problem is that they all think Potter belongs to them, and they're all really different. Ariel is overly materialistic and obsessed with her looks and everything, I don't know how she manages to pass each class. Jessica is incredibly smart and spends almost all her time on her studies, but is still fairly good looking, well duh, she went out with James Potter. Kate is logical, and smart, and gorgeous. I just couldn't see her fitting in with either of the other two, they just aren't her crowd. Actually, none of them are in each others crowd. Jeez Potter, talk about variety. Well considering he went out with Jessica and Ariel at the same time, they would have never found out cuz they rarely talk to one another. Huh, maybe he does have brains. If I never write in here again, it's because the other three and I had a major fight and ended up killing each other or something. Good night.
- Lily

A/N: sooo… did you like it? Tell me, there's a review section for that (hahaIllbe switching between this one and my other fanfiction, so there might be gaps, but maybe not. This is the fastest chapter I've ever written.
I find it funny that I dedicate this story to the best friend who's not in it, and I dedicate my other story (which has caroline in it) to my best friend who's in this one…
