A/N: Hoped you liked the last chapter and about the colours last chapter, here's my explanation. Peter's favourite colour is green because he has Slytherin qualities and betrayed his friends, became a Death Eater etc. Remus is blue for Ravenclaw because he's smart and Sirius is yellow for Hufflepuff because he's loyal, kind and friendly etc. James is Gryffindor because he's brave obviously as well as Gracie. I sort of think that like The Marauder's (James, Sirius, Peter and Remus) sort of represent each house. Yeah anyway…

-CONVERSATION OF THE CHAPTER-

(A/N: I don't know if you like or hate these sort of Conversation of the Chapter but there's really no one to talk to as I want to try and talk to everyone once or maybe twice (if they're lucky and I like them) in the further away future. It's really short today anyway.)

ME: Hello Gracie's wand.

GRACIE'S WAND: …

ME: How are you doing? Good? Bad?

GRACIE'S WAND: …

ME: You know what? I give up! I mean why am I talking to a stupid wand anyway? It's just a piece of wood!

GRACIE'S WAND: HEY!

ME: I mean- wait. What? Must've imagined it. ON WITH THE CHAPTER!

'What are the 5 of you doing here?'

James had only just gotten asleep a few hours ago and didn't appreciate whoever it was yelling at them.

'What?' he grumbled, his eyes still closed.

'It is the end of breakfast! Your house mates kindly informed me about this,' she waved her hand and them and the floor.

James had just opened his eyes to see this.

'Classes start in 5 minutes! Would you please explain why you are all sleeping on the floor?'

'We didn't know the password because we were speaking to Professor Dumbledore and the Fat Lady wouldn't let us in.' Remus explain, a yarn escaping after he had spoken.

'Is this true?' Professor McGonagall asked the Fat Lady who nodded gloomily.

'Right, go upstairs.'

'What?'

'Go upstairs and sleep. I want you in afternoon classes at lunch though. Fail to show…' Professor McGonagall trailed off.

They nodded.

'Thanks.'

'Pig house.'

The Fat Lady swung open and Professor McGonagall ushered them in.

'Bed.' She said sternly and the portrait to the Gryffindor common room closed.

Without another word, everyone scrambled upstairs and to bed.

Remus woke them up at the beginning of lunch.

They dressed and went downstairs and into the Great Hall receiving their timetables for the year from Dorcas Meadows, a 6th year Prefect.

'Nice nap?' Sirius asked Gracie as he sat down and filled his plate up with food.

'Alright.'

'What did we miss?' Remus questioned Lily who was seated next to Gracie.

'Charms.'

'Oh, I hope I didn't miss anything important. What did-?'

James shook his head and blocked out the rest of Remus's and Lily's conversation.

'It was good of Professor McGonagall to let us go to sleep again.' Peter said.

'Speaking of sleep, my toes are killing me.' Gracie groaned.

'Maybe you have broken them?' James offered helpfully.

'Yeah, maybe.'

'I think there was this spell Molly told me about… Espansy? Esponsy? Oh…'

Gracie reached into her pocket.

'Ah! Episkey!' she cried triumphantly.

Then her face drained of colour.

'What?'

'I can't.' she whispered.

'Can't what?'

'I can't find my wand.'

'What?'

Gracie didn't answer and turned all her pockets inside out.

'It's not here. It's not here!' Gracie began to panic.

'Right calm down,' James ordered. 'When did you last see it?'

Gracie looked thoughtful.

'In the corridor outside the portrait. I dropped it.'

'You dropped your wand! With Death Eaters on the loose?' Remus shouted at Gracie.

Obviously, Lily and Remus had stopped talking.

'Uh…'

'Go and get it now!'

'Alright, alright! Don't get your knickers in a twist.' Gracie groaned.

'James and Sirius go with Gracie to find her wand she dropped in the corridor.' Remus ordered.

Gracie pulled a face.

'Why?'

'Protection.' Remus replied swiftly.

'Protection?' Gracie shrieked.

'Protection? How dare you even suggest-'

It seemed lack of sleep, hurting toes and the panic of losing her wand had caught up with Gracie.

'-Remus Lupin! How do I-' Gracie stood up.

Taking the opportunity, Sirius and James also stood up and grabbed her arms, lifted her up and took her out of the Great Hall.

'What the hell? Get off me!'

Gracie kicked her legs in the air and tried to get free.

'Abuse! Kidnap! Murder! Rap-'

Sirius put his hand over Gracie's mouth.

He nearly dropped her down the stairs when he removed his hand from Gracie's mouth in shock.

'You bit me!' He exclaimed in shock.

Gracie childishly stuck her tongue out at him but shut up after that.

They reached the 7th floor, dropped Gracie to the floor and began searching for her wand.

'Looking for this?'

They looked up to see Snape.

Gracie's wand was being twirled between his fingers and he wore a smirk on his face. His eyebrows were raised and his greasy hair hung limply to his shoulders. Dressed in his Slytherin uniform, it was one of the most disgusting sights James had ever seen.

'Actually yes Snape so you had better get your greasy little hand off it before I'm forced to get my fist off your face.'

James snorted in amusement.

Gracie certainly could be funny intentionally and unintentionally.

A force to be reckoned with.

'Really?' Snape asked raising his eyebrows even further. 'Because I'm the one that seems to be holding your wand.'

'Ha! I don't need a wand to fight Snape! Bring it on! Ditch the wand and we'll have a Muggle duel!'

'So you expect me to drop your wand and leave it on the floor so one of your little minions can come over and pick it up?'

Minions? What the?

'Now that you say it, that's not a bad idea. And for your information, they're not my minions.' Gracie nodded.

'No, how about if I just…' Snape walked over slowly to a nearby window and opened it.

'Snape.' James said warningly.

Was he…?

'You see, I could just drop it instead…'

Snape tauntingly held Gracie's wand out of the window.

Gracie shrieked and lunged.

The next thing was blur, Gracie throwing punches at Snape's face, Sirius reaching for Gracie's wand and James just standing there and taking in the scene.

'What's going on here?'

James froze.

'Well?'

It was Professor Wonderstruck.

'Well Sir, Snape stole my wand and was going to throw it out of the window!' Gracie said immediately and pointed at Snape accusingly.

'What? I wasn't going to-' Snape protested.

'You were! We were there!' Sirius came to Gracie's defence/

'Look1 the window is open and everything!'

And indeed, the window was open.

'Mr Snape, detention then. Off to your lessons now.' Professor Wonderstruck said as the bell rung.

Snape left quickly, muttering to himself.

Gracie grinned.

'Thanks Sir.'

And they started off down the same corridor as Snape.

'Oh and Gracie, you might want to make sure your foot is alright.'

'Oh yeah. See you later.'

'Well he's cool.' James said.

'Agreed.'

'Can I have my wand now Sirius?' Gracie asked eagerly.

'No.'

'What?'

'No.'

Gracie pounced for the second time in a space of 10 minutes.

'-Give me-!'

'-Get off-!'

'-My wand-!'

'-No-'

'Stop messing around you two! Sirius just give Gracie her wand and let's go to lessons!' James demanded and rolled his eyes at them on the floor.

Gracie and Sirius, tangled together on the floor stared opened mouthed at him in horror.

Gracie and Sirius looked at each other and then back at James.

'Oh my…'

'He is…'

'Merlin…'

'What?' James asked impatiently.

'Your turning into Remus!' both of them said in unison.

'What? Oh my Merlin…' James whispered. 'Oh my… I am.'

'It's okay James. There's still time to stop the transformation.' Gracie said.

Sirius nodded.

'How? I need help! Now!'

'Well for starters, you can come with me to the girls toilets to wash my hand. Late to lessons you know…'

'The girl toilets?' James frowned.

'Yes.'

They reached the entrance to the girl's toilet and Gracie walked in.

'I've always wanted to see what the girls toilets looked like.' Sirius shrugged and walked in after Gracie.

James gave him a look and walked in after them.

2 7th years were in there applying makeup and screamed when they saw James and Sirius.

'Boys! Boys in the girls-'

'We get it! Go away!' Gracie told them, pointing to the exit.

Grumbling about commanding 12 year olds the 2 7th years left with their makeup cases.

Gracie rolled her eyes.

'Right,' she went up to a sink and went to turn the tap on.

'Wait!' James yelled.

'What now?'

'Will water affect the magic off the wand?' James asked.

Gracie and Sirius looked at him.

'This is worse than we thought.' Sirius commented worriedly.

'We'll talk plans later.' Gracie decided.

'Emergency meeting.' Sirius agreed.

'Emergency meeting?'

'Nothing you need to worry about James!' Gracie chirped brightly.

'Now, let's get Snape's germs, grease and grossness off my wand.'

Gracie turned the tap on and soaked her wand with it and even added soap.

'Don't scrub too hard! It might wear away the wood or something!'

'This way worse than we thought.' Gracie commented.

'Way worse.'

'Emergency emergency meeting?' Sirius asked.

Emergency emergency meeting?

'I'm thinking more on the likes of extreme emergency.'

Extreme emergency meeting?

'Next lesson?'

'Yeah,' then Gracie turned to James. 'What do we have now and next lesson?'

James dug into his pocket.

'Transfiguration with Professor McGonagall now and History of Magic with Professor Binns next…'

'History then?' Sirius asked.

Gracie nodded.

'What do you mean extreme emergency meeting?' James asked confused as Gracie turned the tap off and grabbed some toilet paper to dry her wand.

'Well there's in order: The green codes, GC (green code) 1 is we need to talk and GC2 is meeting now. Then the code oranges, OC1 is emergency meeting, OC2 is emergency emergency meeting and OC3 is extreme emergency meeting. The red codes, RC1 is drop everything meeting and then RC2 is right now meeting.' Gracie explained.

'Uh… great. When did you come up with that?'

'Ages ago. My wand's dry now. Let's see if it still works shall we? WINGARDIUM LEVIOSA!'

Gracie swished and flicked her wand and a sink disconnected from the wall.

'YAY!' she grinned and waved her wand out happily.

This made the sink crashed into Sirius's head and caused him to start bleeding and to fall unconscious.

'SHIT! James what do we do?'

'Urh, urh… go to Madam Pomfrey?'

'Okay. Urh, Wingar-'

'NO! Don't do it again!'

'How are we meant to get him to the Hospital Wing then?'

'Erm… we carry him?' James suggested.

Gracie looked at him doubtfully.

'Can we carry Sirius though?'

'We can try.'

'I'll take the head?' Gracie offered.

'I've got the legs then. Hurry, he's losing blood.'

They reached down and lifted him up.

'He's really heavy.' Gracie groaned, trying not to drop Sirius as she walked backwards out of the girl's bathroom.

'I know! Keep moving though!'

'You try going down the stairs backwards and holding up an unresponsive person's body!'

'Oh shut up Gracie!'

'Swap with me then James!'

'No! It's too dangerous to swap around the stairs.'

'Dangerous my arse.'

'Gracie! You're going to bass into that suit of armour!'

'That was close!'

'Nearly there!'

'We have arrived!'

'What do we do now then Gracie?' James asked.

Gracie looked around for inspiration.

'Put him down, knock and run.' She whispered.

James nodded.

They lowered Sirius gently to the ground and Gracie knocked.

They ran around the corner and waited.

'Yes- what has happened here?' They heard Madam Pomfrey say loudly.

'Let's go to lessons now.' James sighed.

'RC1! I repeat RC1!' Gracie said out loud to no one.

'Isn't RC1 drop everything?'

'Yes, RC1 is drop everything.'

Gracie rolled her eyes.

'That's kind of ironic don't you think? Seeing as you just dropped Sirius.'

'Shut up James.'
