Chapter 77: Marauders' Feminine Side
"Jamsie!!" Sirius called with a very fake sounding high-pitched voice. "Get out of the bathroom right now!! I need to dress up for breakfast!!"
"Sirie darling, there's a mirror here as well." Remus reminded Sirius gently.
"Remmy, you don't understand, the mirror in the bathroom is bigger." Sirius pouted a little.
"It's the same, my dear." Peter looked over at Sirius and turned back in front of the mirror styling his hair.
"Can't I just have some privacy to squeeze my pimple??" Sirius pouted again, arms crossed, standing right in front of the bathroom, knocking the door once very few seconds. "Jamesie!!"
"Coming!!" James gave a muffled reply from the bathroom, in a pitch much higher and gentler than the usual him. Finally the door opened to reveal a very refreshed looking James.
"This is one of the rare mornings you're looking so good." Remus complimented.
"Thanks Remmy, by the way did you see my underwear??" James asked, digging his trunk. His olive green towel wrapped around his body, which covered his chest till his thigh.
"So sorry, I don't know where are your underwear."
"Aaahhh!!" Sirius screamed in the bathroom. The three guys got a shock and rushed to check out what was happening.
"What happened??" Remus frowned with concern.
"My breasts are sagging!!" Sirius used his hands to cup his previously muscular chest, which became breasts overnight.
"Wear a push-up bra for goodness sake." James said, rather annoyed by the din Sirius made.
"That reminds me. Anyone see any bras anywhere??" Peter spoke up.
"Good question."
"Do we have any bras to start with??"
"I don't know. But I don't remember wearing any last night or yesterday."
"It's getting late. Transfig. some to last for today first."
"What size do you gals wear??" James asked.
"Thirty-four D." Sirius replied promptly.
"Are you sure yours are that huge??" James raised his brows in doubt.
"I can alter it if they're too big or too small."
"More like too big." James muttered under his breath.
"At least mine are bigger than yours."
"Ha, I'm pretty satisfied with my thirty-six C." James replied as he transfigured a pink bra for himself and a lacey red bra for Sirius.
"I'll need a push-up with maximizer." Peter told James.
"No prob, dear." James transfigured a black bra with a thick sponge for the push-up effect. "Remmy??"
"Just a simple thirty-four B will do." Remus replied modestly.
"Give you a little push up for some cleavage." James transfigured a blue satiny bra out from the fourth quill.
"Don't forget the matching undies." Sirius reminded, speaking in between his teeth flossing.
"Are you done with your washing up??" James asked as he transfigured any four quills into matching undies of the right size.
"Soon. Wait for me."
"Aren't we already waiting for you, princess Sirie??" James replied in a whiney tone, adjusting his bra after putting on his black uniform top which he altered it to be body hugging.
"Do something about our hair while waiting." Remus told James, putting on his track shoes, which he modified it to the ladies version to suit his outfit.
"Sirie, you don't need to dress so sexily for breakfast, we still need to go for lessons." James told Sirius in a slightly exasperated voice. "There's something known as uniform, my dear." Sirius had appeared out of the bathroom wearing a knee-length flowery skirt and white spaghetti stripped top.
"Slip out of my mind. I thought it was Sunday." Sirius said, quickly changed into his set of uniform, which he altered it so as to accentuate his hourglass figure.
"Let's get going. We only have thirty minutes left for breakfast." James reminded, checking his newly pink-colored watch for time.
"Wooohooo!!" Wolf whistles can be heard from various guys from the different houses.
"Who're those four girls??"
"Don't know. New??"
"Doubt so. They must have been around for some time."
"They look strangely familiar."
"Where are those girls from??"
"Look at their figures."
"Definitely dazzling."
The Marauders sashayed along the corridors from Gryffindor towards the Great Hall. It was a rare sight that the Gryffindor common room was emptied that morning and hence, none of the fellow Gryffindors spotted their change.
"Do you notice that everyone seems to be staring at us??" Remus spoke softly to the other three Marauders.
"We're too gorgeous, that's why." Peter replied factually.
"Petie is right this time." Sirius agreed. "We're just too stunning."
"Remmie, don't worry." James patted Remus' arm. "You look beautiful. Relax, okie??"
"What's keeping them??" Lily asked her three friends. The four sixth-year Gryffindors were among the first few to be hanging out at the Great Hall in order not to miss the good show coming up that morning.
"Dressing up, I supposed." Joey said simply. "I mean that's what girls do in the morning."
"Well, we do that in the mornings." Samantha agreed. "But I'm not too sure if they would do that."
"They had our essence." Lily commented and the four girls laughed at their little joke.
"I don't think that few strands of hair can be too much of an essence." Stefanie remarked, smiling away.
"I think we used more than what was recommended."
"Don't worry too much. It will only make them more girlish, that's all."
"Wonder if they would reach the extent of experiencing PMS."
"Actually they would only be this way for a week. Can't get that far."
"Imagine they get pregnant."
"I can't imagine actually."
"How about Stef kissing the female Remus??"
"I promise I won't kiss him, oops, I mean her, this week." The four girls were chatting animatedly in their conversation until a sudden commotion at the Great Hall entranced bring to a standstill to it.
"Thank you so much, my dearrr." Sirius called out in this super unusual high-pitched voice to the guy who had offered himself as his escort to the Great Hall.
"You're welcome." The Hufflepuff guy replied from where he was seated.
Lily almost choked on her chocolate milk when she saw how Sirius looked that morning. In fact all four girls were trying very hard not to burst out laughing and gave themselves away.
"Oh my gosh!!" Stefanie muttered as she covered her mouth with her palm, laughing very hard. Sirius did look different.
"It is nearly impossible to guess that was the big prankster Sirius Black in disguise." Samantha said in the midst of laughter.
"Wait till the rest come in." Lily said, laughing very hard among some of the other students.
"You don't have to wait very long." Joey pointed at the three girls who were making a grand entrance.
"May I know the sacred name of this beautiful lady here??" A sixth-year Hufflepuff, Amos Diggory went towards James and asked.
"Call me Jamie." James replied flirtatiously. The four girls were staring wide-eyed, mouth opened at the speaking duo. James Potter and Amos Diggory rarely had any decent conversation, not to mention such an introduction. That scene was definitely an amazing change.
"I'm Amos. Please to meet you." Amos replied politely. "Have I seen you around before??"
"Oh yes, you certainly has." James replied, blinking shyly but yet flirtatiously at Amos. "I remember seeing you around."
"I must have been blind to miss noticing your graced presence." Amos and James were in the once-in-a-lifetime conversation in front of the Gryffindor table whereby the four girls were watching. Remus and Peter, who were less captivating as women were already settled at the Gryffindor table, waiting for James and Sirius to finish their morning flirting.
"Do we flirt that much??" Samantha asked innocently.
"Actually we don't." Joey replied. "But if we add all our flirting skills together, that might just be the result." James actually started holding onto Amos' elbow, letting him lead the way to the place where Remus and Peter were seated.
"I don't think we would hold any guy's hand just like that." Stefanie commented.
"But then again, our essence is at work." Lily grinned mischievously.
"I can't believe they were the Marauders."
"They're too pretty to be the Marauders!!"
"Someone must have drugged them."
"Must be the Slytherins. Look at what they did to the Marauders the last time."
"But James and Sirius actually looked stunning at ladies."
"Did you see Amos' face when he realized that was James in disguise??"
"He practically disinfects his arm where James held on earlier."
"I think he rinsed his mouth and brushed his teeth as well."
"I wonder who did that to the Marauders."
"They're the coolest guys around."
"They had proven to be the coolest girls around as well."
Lily and Stefanie were walking together along the corridor. They had separated from Samantha and Joey who headed towards the library while they were heading back to the Gryffindor tower.
"Finally someone noticed they were the Marauders in disguise after the first class." Lily and Stefanie were speaking in low voices, for fear others might eavesdrop their conversation.
"It's a pity we didn't get to see Diggory's face when he realized that was James."
"They might as well as be girls for good. Their popularity had soared again today."
"Anyway we better talk about it in the dorm."
"Let's write Bell a letter since we've two free periods."
"Great idea."
Dearest Bellebella..
How are you?? We missed you so much!! Something exciting happened today that we felt that it's a must to let you know the first hand news. Guess what?? The Marauders are girls today!!
Bet you must be wondering why. It all started with James, pissing me off. No point going into details. Anyway I wanted to let him have a taste of his own medicine, so we came up with a prank and pulled on the Marauders. Just teleporting their beds to the Great Hall, nothing big. We attached two photos together to let you know how they looked like when they were sleeping in the Great Hall.
Then for the main prank, we did the Transsexual Potion. We used a bit of all our hair for it and the outcome is, none other than the very girlie Marauders. You can imagine the rest. We gave a higher dosage for James and Sirius because they're like the Masters of Pranksters. Obviously I fed even more on James. Results shown that three drops made a difference.
Lils had already written majority of the letter. She's just so excited over the prank. Well, you know, the mastermind of the whole thing. The thing is everyone believes that the Slytherins are behind all these. But I believe the guys are smart enough to know that Slytherins aren't that brainy to do something like that. All they know are just hexes.
Do keep us updated about your well-being. We're all very concerned about your life with the muggles. Hope that this letter would not bring too much commotion to your life over there with an owl flying around. Reply soon.
Lots of Love,
Stef and Lils (Sam and Jo are not around at the moment but we represent them for this letter as well)
Arabella laughed as she finished reading the letter twice. Lily's small owl was still waiting by the desk in her room, waiting for a reply from her.
Will write soon. Not too convenient now.
Bell
She wrote a quick note with a ballpoint pen on normal white foolscap and tied it onto Tinkerbell's leg. Making sure that no one was looking at her window, she let the owl out. I really envy you gals. Having fun in Hogwarts.
"That's fast." Stefanie took the note from Tinkerbell's leg. "Oh, just a quick note."
"What did she say??"
"Nothing much. Just 'Will write soon. Not too convenient now.' only."
"Alright, let's hope she write back soon."
"How about writing a quick note to Yvette and gang??"
"Yeah, it had been such a long time." Lily grabbed another parchment and sat by Stefanie's desk to write.
Dearest Yvette, Shannie, Jennifer and Yvonne,
How are you girls getting along?? It had been sometime since we last wrote. Well, you're not forgotten obviously. By the way we just want to let you know that we had this major prank on the Marauders. First, we teleported their bed into the middle of the Great Hall the other day, today, we just made them transform to girls. It's really tiring to be a prankster actually, so many stuffs to carry out. Well, hope you girls did something to the F4 too. Because that certainly do spice things up a little, I don't mean that yours aren't spicy enough. Just kidding. Reply soon.
Lots of Love,
Stefanie and Lily
Lily tied the parchment onto Tinkerbell's leg after it was dried.
"Bring this to Yvette, it's a long way though." Lily patted Tinkerbell's feathers. "Go for a break after this delivery." With that, the owl flew into the midday sky.
"It's about time for lunch." Stefanie said.
"That's fast." Lily replied in a slightly shocked manner.
"Time always flies the fastest when we're relaxing."
"Can't believe we are actually men!!" James said, in a furious sounding high-pitched tone.
"You didn't like being a man??" Remus teased.
"Well, we're enjoying life as women now, while we can." Sirius said humorously.
"Imagine you're stuck with being a woman for life." James said exasperatedly.
"You won't." Remus said factually. "We're on the Transsexual Potion. It wears off after a week."
"We must be good enough. I think it might wear off in a day."
"This is so humiliating."
"Personally, I felt it was pretty fun."
"It won't be fun if you thought Diggy is
your admirer and start flirting with him."
"That's unimaginable, I understand. But besides that, what's else??"
"That's enough to make my womanly life unimaginable."
"But who knows you might love it so much that you decide to become a woman for good."
"Moony, trust me, I won't and never ever want to be a woman." James said in a final tone.
